I would if I could afford stacks of tickets.
I crafted a Deldrimor Sword and killed my funding.
I would have loved to waste 30k on tickets. I wasn't using it.
Untill I wanted a new sword >_>

for the first time in a very long time, I am not afk'ing the lucky title. The last time around I managed to make Prosperous (4) and that's enough for me. I don't feel like afk'ing another entire weekend only to get less then halfway to Golden.

I went afk at about 11pm last night and there were 4 players on the same ring as me who weren't being knocked down when the ring lost. I guess they didn't have any tickets in their inventory. Anyway I've just come back to my keyboard (weather was lovely outside) and those same players are still standing in the same spot without being knocked down by losses.....17 hours afk and they haven't won a single point!

I am afking there while I sleep. While I am awake I prefer to earn some gold and do some trades/quests/missions/farming.

Only difference to a normal weekend is that I stopped PvPing for this one.

I believe you win the most tickets standing in the center ring of 9 Rings...

losing in Ring of Fortune is really cheap... you'll hardly spend anything and it's just time you gotta put in, luckily you can do it being afk heh :P

Haven't got access to the wikis at the moment, but the figures there show that there is no difference where you stand on 9 Rings for Lucky points.

The corner spots are better for raising Lucky and Unlucky at the same time.

I bought 1000 and afk'd for a short while. When I saw the slight difference to my ranking I gave it up as a bad job. Back to lockpicks for me

On average, you will win the EXACT SAME number of tickets regardless of where you stand in 9-rings (95 won per 100 played), you just lose more often in the corners, so people stand there to maximize both title tracks.

Yes, I'm aware of that; however, max Unlucky is 500k points, gives no benefit to gameplay and is too costly for the sake of an HoM trophy (besides, it already shows in my HoM due to being GWAMM)...I'm content with "Wretched" (and the gold I'll be saving).

No, but I intend to do a level or two later on and overnight.

Just started. Thanks for the reminder.

Don't have much else to waste my gold on these days so I might as well blow it on this.
