    Default Ammies you buy vs. ammies you get as gifts

    Has anyone noticed you really only get good items (most of the time other than that random good win on the wheel) that when you use coins you've bought on the wheel you get better items compared to using amulets you get as gifts on facebook?

    I've been keeping track in a general sense and I have spun 20+ amulets I got as gifts and gotten nothing on many occasions but I spent 5 of the 6 cents I have left and I win 30 - and that's not the first time I've gotten a good item using coins I bought.

    Am I the only one who is noticing this or have others experienced the same thing?

    By the way I hope this thread is okay to post; I should be able to explain a concern I have for the game.

    i occasionally get amulets from lv10npcs and get decent results from those amulets compared to ones given daily.

    positive: was I helpful? did I make you laugh or cheer you up? Did I contribute positively in any way to a post?
    negative: did I break the forum rules? did I say something offensive?

    I didn't think to include wins from battle, thanks for adding that.

    However I'm trying to just be general here and I think some people know what I'm talking about... I'm sure you can get good items off any amulet but bought ones just seem to have more of an edge (in my opinion).

    Well, not to burst anyone's bubble, and I honestly don't know if there is any difference between the amulets, but I won 30 cents on the wheel yesterday with my facebook ammies. First time I've won cents on that server, too.


    Thank you, Ravenwings, for my new siggie! WOOT!

    Do you usually buy cents and spin them at all?

    Also, as I said you can still win good things off the wheel from fb ammies but the thing is I've noticed you get them much more often from bought ones.

    I'm thinking there is a higher ratio for bought ammies and a lower ratio for fb gift ones.

    It does Evony no good to do this and it just makes more coding.

    If they went to the extra effort to pull one over on us and make bought ammys better than regular, they would want to incentivze us into buying them.

    Yet they never tell us purchased ammy are better, so poeple wont buy any more, because they figure they are the same as free ammys, Whjich in Age II you get 21 every day.

    Points
    1) evony wants to make money
    2) if no one knows purchased ammys are better they will just use the free ammys
    3) Evony never told us the purchased ammys are better

    Result
    If purchased ammys are actually better, than evony is losing money by not telling us. And if we can all agree that Evony is focused on making money we will see that logic tells us the ammys are all the same.


    Sorry but this "theory" holds as much water as the "theory" that higher intel heroes give better medal drop rate.


    *another possiblity is that you are a secret spy for evony and want us to purchase ammys instead of using the 21 free we get per

    It does evony good if people like me realize that it's going on since it may make me want to use bought cents to use on the wheel o' crap.

    I get what you're saying though.

    I'll save up my fb ammies and then spend the coins I have on the same amount of spins and record the findings and do this 3x or something and then I'll have proof of my 'theory' if it is indeed true.

    And by the way I never said this was a definite I just was asking if others have noticed it.

    I haven't bought cents on this server yet, but I have in the past.

    I'm kinda superstitious about things like that. If I buy cents, I know in advance how many I will spin and I spin them in lots of 10 no more than 10 per 30 minutes, and I try to spin the full lot I intend to use within 24 hours of purchase. LOL I fully admit there is absolutely not one bit of sound data to justify this, but I seem to get really good return rates on my cents.
