Raylóng Quest
Forum-Index → News → Raylóng QuestOh and Diana brought up a good idea for all the users who plan on hunting it. Some users already asked me if you can "hoard" Jade Orbs before starting a hunt - but no, that is not possible.
But like Diana said, you can store some Raylóng eggs in your Egg Storage Box first.
The second task is probability and luck based.
The third task is luck based for one of the items you have to have.
The fourth task is purely luck based. And if my calculations are right, I have less than a 1% chance at finding the item, due to it being about a 12% chance to get the right box, and I assume it's a 5% chance of that for getting the item.
And here I was thinking worthy meant people who could work for it, earn it, who are experienced, willing to put the effort forth, and to test their will power and skills. Not to test their luck :/
When I got this task, I was hoping there would be a specific number of treasure boxes to open before the Jade showed up, but after so many plays with a handful of opened boxes (all being game chips, I might add) I've come to the conclusion that this is just to test our patience and luck, nothing to do with actually being worthy. Nothing about actually earning it.
At the very least, the first distribution rewarded those who worked for the event. Those who really wanted it could earn it through hours of lab-stalking. Through doing their best at clicking. Putting forth their best effort in the art contest. Deciphering your little youtube video. The only one that was lucked based was the treasure hunt, and it seemed like there was a higher chance at finding Raylong back then than there is for a fraction of it now. So forgive me for my blatant irritation, but I fully understand that this is meant to be hard and will accept that fact once I've either gone through all my chips and PD to keep playing the game of luck, or once I get through all the challenges and see how many more are almost purely luck based. (Since half of them, so far, are luck based.)
I know I'm irritated at it, by now. I've wasted hours on the treasure game, I've wasted some of my saved up small nuggets on the treasure game, and all I have to show for it is nothing. So this post is rather annoyed, irritated, and disappointed in how this is done, but at the same time, I understand that your goal was to make it impossibly hard to shiny hunt this event.
Also, the "Higher or Lower" isn't that much based on luck either. You just need to play it a couple of times, pay attention to the game and make the correct guesses. Yes, obviously this is gambling and requires some luck - but after all you can play it again and again - and the time spent on it is much less than for the interacting.
The Treasure Hunt, however, is completely luck-based, and this one was also part in the original Raylong-distribution. And I can assure you that the propability of finding a Jade Orb at the Treasure Hunt is much higher than finding a Raylóng Egg back then. Much higer, plenty of users have already found it.
Apart from that, the Treasure Hunt is the last luck-based task in this quest (in my opinion). Except if you argue that "receiving interactions" is luck-based (for Task #5).
So after all, most features on PokeHeroes are luck-based anyways, and using them for such a quests adds some randomness to the quest, too. But I tried to make a good combination between hard work, patience (when you have to wait passively and can't really do anything actively) and some luck (which you can influence by trying it a couple of times).

laugh because they know you're sad
They sing because they know you're angry
They attack because they know you're scared
They picked on you ever since you were young
They laughed until sanity you had none
You had nothing while they had their fun
And yet you still call them your friends
Thats a sad life you're living
And I bet you want to escape it, badly
