The thing is, the expected mean value (EMV) for the return is crazy.
– Feathers, you can get thru the game, and anyone risking gems for serious amount of feathers likely does not need them…
– Gems, by the time you are high enough to get lots and balance the risk of a pig showing up, again, chances are you have enough to begin with.
– Spells, meh. Our Lady of Infinites can provide far better
– Hats, that’s the same as gems. 10-20 pearls for a hat you already have? pfeh. Only if you spend enough to get to the ‘good’ levels. Got a couple Christmas hats, saved 200 pearls, not a bad deal but if you need to climb to level 42 to get some… The super hats, that’s what makes the risk worthwhile if you have thousands of gems to spare.
– Pearls, that’s the key. But again, lots of pearls are impossible to get early on. Later I do not know. Havent got more than 20-30?
So, basically, the Tower is nothing more than a ploy to waste gems for all but the wealthiest players with tens of thousands of (possibly questionably obtained) gems. I mean, if you win first place in the arena every week, and win 5 gems ten times a day thru the chest, that’s 300 + 350 or 650 gems a week….do the math for a year and see what amounts we’re talking about. Unless, of course, there are legitimate ways of obtaining tens of thousands of gems that we’re unaware of.
