I wasn't complaining, I was inserting things that are likely to be changed because it's TOO easy.

I think it's an amazing addition to the game. It gives people a taste of what it's like to get "lucky" sometimes, even if they never are.

Also, you can't complain that you're getting a couple plat here and there. You definitely need it for skills / dyes / armor upgrades, or whatever else you really want to buy but can't quite afford.

Well, I've only had girls out as far as Arkjok Ward for the special chests and I must say that it is great fun! Between 500 and 1K gold each time plus a gold item including a wild looking Adamantine sword with +19% enchant duration pommel.

Oh, and capped Avatar of Balthazar with my ele/derv.....just because he made it personal! Took a few...ok, several....ok ok, many resurrects but I have the avatar elite!

Later, I'll take Sanura out since she's been playing around in the Realm of Torment and can certainly use a break.

Bestest Yule, I mean Wintersday, ever .

In my opinion these should be removed after the update. Finishing Elona doesn't take as long as you just go through the missions, and if each character can get these items you can get gold really rapidly. Wait untill people start rushing 7 characters through the game at a time...

Trying to open all of them myself now Capping skills on the way.

I just think it's funny for people to say "these should be nerfed after the update" and "I'm getting as many as I can" in the same post and still take themselves seriously. Better nerf this stuff.... AFTER I get MY leet gear...

I've opened every treasure listed on Guildwiki. I got nothing worth keeping except for a few mods:

Two 15/-5 Insignias
+30 HP Scythe Grip
Energy +5>50
20% Enchant Sword Pommel
-2 enchant shield insignia

A few weapons:

Near Perfect Furious Ornate Scythe of Shelter (Req 9, 10/10, 14/Stance, +7)
Req 11 Igneous Blade (Crappy stats: Poisonous, 10% Spell Recharge)
Req 9 Tribal Shield (Reduces Poison)

I got a few high req/crappy stats caster items that I merchanted, and I also got a worthless gold armor.

I also made around 20k cash.

^ You should probally treat them like they are here only during the holidays, and then be plesantly suprised when they announce that they stay... Rather than the other way around.
