The only way to make a lottery not be a scam is to offer more than 30 exalted as prize.

Anyone who gives fusing to a lottery with the jackpot of less than 30 is a COMPLETE MORON.

Why are u giving fusing to someone else to win 10 exalteds when u can fuse ur own 6 socket and sell for 30 ex minimum?

Sometimes I wonder how some people survive in the real world when they cant do simple calculations to see if something is worth it.


most lotteries are scams unless they do it live on stream.

and your comment does not make sense to me, so you contributed 1 fusing with is half of an exalt to the person and hope it 6 linked the item, 1 fusing in exchange for 10 ex? how is that bad?

you made it sound like people are throwing hundreds of fusings into the lottery


Lets see...

I have 10 fusing.

I can either

A) give the fusing to someone else and win 10 exalted if it 6 links

or

B) Put it in my own 6 socket white item or volls or w/e and 6 link my own. Then sell that item for 30 ex minimum.

Both option are exactly the same % chance to 6link.

Therefore people who participate in lotteries with jackpot less that 30 exalted are fucken morons.

Lol omg, why didn't I think of this? It all seemed like I have been helping lotteries with the intention of helping the person get 6L in a win-win situation. If I just look at things the selfish way, you are right.

If you want to help someone who offers less than 30 ex, then:

1) link your own item
2) if it works, sell it to someone for less than 30ex, thereby helping him

It has the same effect, yet prevents you from being scammed!

First and the only rule of running lotteries scams:

* set the prize LESS than expected value of 5L/6Linking/chroming yourself.

Everything else are irrelevant technical details.


Or sometime people do it the other way around : set the prize to MORE than average number of fusing you'll need. But this way you'll have a certainty of having a 6L when your exalts are gone. Hence the comment about Health Insurence (which would have been more clear as simply "insurence", that it's about health or your car don't change a thing).

Too bad they don't see how good the ARPG element of their game is...

That's just stupid. Why take the risk of having bad RNG luck when you can let other people take the risk for you, and on average link it cheaper than doing it yourself?

lol, no, never. RNG is a bitch.


I know that at least as well as most people, believe me, and still I believe lotteries suck.

I actually started doing one once, in desperation, and then decided it made me feel dirty and stopped.


Why would to feel "dirty"? Explain to me the rationale behind that feeling.

You are forgetting: the 6-socket base is required. 6-socket base is not always something that the lottery users can afford.
