Best use of Lunar Tokens

I'm personally thinking it's RPS, as you are more-or-less guaranteed 1 sweet and 1 fortune every 2 tokens.

5 tokens gets you roughly 2.7 sweet/party points for exchange (assume 100g = 1 point).

3 tokens for 1 fortune is a total waste...

The fortune nets you a possibility for a rare pet, and ~0.7 party points.

So, 5 tokens played RPS should get you ~4.2 sweet/party points plus an opportunity for a rare pet. Why would you do anything else (plus, those fancy buffs when you DON'T get the 0.7 party point from a fortune).

Am I missing anything here?

Because RPS takes frickin forever. That's basically the only reason.

Yeah, I was thinking same thing, after handing in 89 parchments/wood/dust for rockets...

Then I thought, maybe the mix might matter (party vs sweets), but you still get almost 1:1 of each...

I got 400 tokens now... guess I'll test out the RPS thang...

Edit: way too slow, definitely a waste of time unless you're botting it or going for drunkard title and watching WTB/S in LA (LOL nub). Kinda a shame, more reason to bot. Less reason to play.

You can play RPS against Lucky Hockei in Lions Arch (LA).

It's the more efficient way to get lunar tokens as well as sugary blue drinks, however it takes A LOT of time.

Good Luck.

I think he meant lunar fortunes. With RPS you can get quite a few more than just turning in tokens but, as has been said, it is slow and boring.
