Are you doing the Beetletun run in HM or NM?
Tha Rangah
I did both but it dropped in NM.

I was aware of that, but I thought there was a higher chance of getting a mini drop in HM. That's why I wanted to know if Rangah was doing the runs in NM or HM.

It gives me hope that so many people get these minis!

It is a shame some people are going to get screwed as usual on the grind. Maybe they should put the minis as trade option for 300 supplies. (equivalent of 20 gifts, but at least you're guaranteed something.)
Gabriel of Ravn
Only problem I have with that is anyone can farm 12 war supplies in 8 minutes easy so everyone would be running around with the new minis within a day or 2.

Wouldn't that be much better to keep anyone from having to do anything in the game?
It's funny reading these forums at times, just sad other times.
" anet never does anything. give us new stuff!!! "
" I don't like this new stuff, give us something else "
" new stuff is too hard "
" why does anet never give us new stuff? "

The one to watchtower coast rezone as needed sometimes it will take 10 rezones until he appears it's very irritating. He also appears right outside of bergen but if you are hoping for a mini it seems to be watchtower you want.

Well they're wasting life they'll never get back so shouldn't that work out to something in game? And it doesn't hurt anyone to just give out this kind of junk. The money people are making off it is hardly "deserved".
Gabriel of Ravn
That's true and the people that are making bank from the minis are lucky they are just getting the minis from the gifts early and good for them. Like I said in another thread the prices of these minis will drop in a week or 2 because anyone can get an infinite number of royals gifts unlike traveler gifts.

I took 6 characters today through every dialogue, did Trial of Zinn, and did a Scavenger Hunt for every one of those 6 characters. Did the bounty on every single one of them on HM and my reward?
Blue scrolls for every gift I got.
This really drives me insane seeing as you go through so much work to get a worthless reward in the end. From now on, I'm just selling these things and use that money to buy the minis I want. It's pointless for me to open these anymore if this is the reward they feel is suitable after all the hard work you just put in to get them.
I mean, the gifts I get from the Paper Parcels from doing the Scavenger Hunt are better than what I get from a Royal Gift. That is wrong.

please be reasonable. Princess Salma is in a tight spot now as she has to fund the war, not petty presents.

Next question, why the RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO does the Krytan treasury have so many blue XP scrolls in it?
majoho
Because they need to level from 12 to 20 fast to fight the white mantle
Raven Wing
4 gifts. 1 armor of salvation and 3 scrolls. Oh well, you cant get goodies every time...
Eragon Zarroc
did one gift the other day and got an armor ;-) oh well, doing the gifts also give u a chance at getting green grops from the white mantle
Wyndy
I'm thinking that until we learn what the medal of honor is for, I will hold onto war supplies and not get gifts. If the medal turns out to be something not needed, then I will cash in all supplies at once for royal gift.

guess I will just sell the dumb things too.....
-Makai-
It would nice if they could just axe the XP scrolls and make the alcohol and sweets a bit more prevalent. Also, there should be a party item of some kind; shouldn't we be celebrating Salma's ascension to the throne?
Kharmin
Like a party horn that would be as annoying as the champagne poppers.
aspi
There is definetly an alcoholic working at Anet
stretchs
heh, they are like drug dealers, give you a nice big taste early and now makes you work for it....
Apok
Dunno why you all are wasting your stuff on the RG's. I've been stocking up on the Medals of Honour.

Lol 1 of my guild mates exchanged 25 war supplies in the first hour they were available because he assumed it was something prestigious then he logs back on a few hours later to me telling him I already have 5.

Riot Narita
Why are YOU wasting your stuff on medals? There's no telling what they're for, you'll get them from Royal Gifts anyway, and Royal Gifts also have a chance of a rare mini.
Lihinel
@Riot Narita:
There is, at least you can go and look what got added into the gw.dat file and compare it with what is already available.
The only thing missing out are the new white mantle weapons.
So that seems like a pretty good bet.
