It's still a jazzy way to get items we can't get on our own ^^ | Only the Rank 4 items will be screwed. Chances are there will be hardly anyone winning a lot of the Rank 3 and above items, as the resources to gaurantee a Rank 3 item is so much/not worth the effort compared to Rank 4 items (10 characters is all you need, covering each of the last 2 digits). 100k investment for a 600k~ return (assuming you pick a behemoth hide), not so bad, depending on how people decide to "play this". You'll just have to be lucky (hey it's a lottery, right?) to win anything Rank 3 and above.
Still, it might be a good idea to sell your Dusk stuff now and buy it back in 2 months. HQs of Dusk may possibly be cheaper too, but dependable. Crafters are likely to benefit. LadyKiKi [DRG75 | BST75 | PLD75 | RDM75 | NIN75] - DRG 1-75 - Soloed (RDM Sub) @ 2006 ½

You match all five numbers, you get something from the Rank 1 list. Ellipses on Fenrir There is no rush. If you're not willing to take your time, don't be surprised when no one wants to give you much of theirs.

Ten tickets or marbles or powerballs or whatever the hell they are per character, 17 million chances to win. Given that it's only 1/100,000 (I know, 'only', but it's very low compared to real lottos), that's about 170 Rank 5 winners; or about five winners per server on average. | Originally Posted by someone who just spent ten minutes with feba | | wtf?
