Roaming Phantom Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Okay.... So, I'm in a pretty confused state... Firstly at the time when I dont have enough money to effort all the Secret Laboratory Map, I always being eager to have one.. But for now.. When I 'suddenly' have more than enough money (thanks to TNT for being 'generous' :P) to buy it, somehow I become not interested in it anymore.. So I really am confused by now, should I buy it or wait till it got its prize lower or even try to collect it one by one from andom eent or such (but till now I have no luck at all to find one... D:) Because, sometime I think that lab ray 'do nothing' but to change your pet species/color/level/status/even its gender... :P Anyway, so how others think about it?
Kex Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Absolutely buy it. I love mine; I love having one extra daily that I get to do, and I really like seeing what sort of things it surprises me with. It IS very expensive, but I personally find it worth the price. Your mileage may vary, of course. ^_^
Ruto Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I'd say go ahead and buy it. The lab can give you some pretty amazing and exclusive colors for your pet, and it can also turn it into a LE species. Of course, there are always consequences such as stat decrease or simply nothing happening, but the lab is a pretty fun daily overall. :D But don't hold your breath waiting for the price to go lower, or for you to find all nine pieces on the floor. That's about as likely as finding a Krawk petpet at the money tree.
stephie23 Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 You can randomly get some pieces via key quest, but its pretty rare to do so. As for it going lower? I doubt it ... I paid around 800k or higher. Its around 750k now, and holding. But a few yrs ago it was much much cheaper. I would get it. Its really fun, you never know what you'll get (ive gotten a jelly pet, a chocolate pet, a robot pet, a checkered pet, a cloud pet, a halloween pet, etc. etc. etc.) :) Its always super cool when you get a totally awesome pet to play with Verdict: Go for it, its fake money after all ... and you'll earn it back in no time
Viridian Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I'd say buy! It gives me so much excitement when my pet changes colour or something :O :D
SerenityLotus Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I say go ahead and buy it. I love my lab map. Every time you click it you can get sometime crazy! I've gotten so many awesome pets/colors. The best is when you get a LE or expensive color.
meghan7p Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Buy it! It will pay off eventually. I have it on to accounts now, and its done some cool things :D
linda Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Really? Why aren't you interested anymore? I have 2! :D
Xepha Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Buy it if you don't have set plans for your pets or if you like to gamble. If you have set plans, then don't consider the lab. Chances are very slims it will help you to achieve any set goals.
Denisa Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 Yesterday I just bought a 2nd one for my side and now I'm considering buying another one for another side (: I believe it's the must fun daily on neopets.Plus you get a chance at the rare petpets and pets.
stephie23 Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 Ive been thinking about buying a second, Im just not sure though ... Im super glad I have my original one, ... but I dunno about a second one ..
Jessica :) Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 I'm with you stephie ! I have one on my side (which used to be my main) and now I'm considering buying a second on my now main account.. I love it, but it's so expensive so I'm not suree!!
Cassie Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 If you get the lab and the petpet lab like I did, you have the cahnce of getting 2 avatars, plus any pet or petpet avatar related species. I got my labs a month ago and I already have the 2 avatars. I'm currently waiting for my pet/petpet to turn into a major avatar animal
Lyndsie Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 I personally love the lab ray. I've got two (one on my main and one on a side) and use them everyday. You should buy it if you don't mind one (or more) of your pets changing genders often, or decreasing stats, or changing species/colors. If you don't mind any of those things, buy it!
Kyra Trebon Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 I finally got the Lab Ray earlier this week, and like everyone else, I say you go for it. Yes it is a gamble, but it is a lot of fun to guess what will happen to your pet each time (I've had stats increase and a gender change already). Besides, since you said yourself you have more than enough for it, why not give it a try? Worst case scenario is you try it, hate it, and then earn the np back.
stephie23 Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 See buying one is def worth it, you'll get your money's worth out of BD stats and rare painted pets... Its the second one. .. I mean ... its really fun having one, but do I really need 2? :P Jessica - yep you are very right, it is expensive... maybe ill wait... if i get a piece randomly ill save it :P
safetymath Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 I got it recently after awhile of thinking I didn't really want it...mostly out of boredom. I'm glad I got it though, it's fun. I mostly wanted to access the Petpet Lab.
Strawberri Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 I like the lab ray. It gives you great stat boots if you want to fight, and you can get rare pet colours and even an avatar. I like having another daily to do too!
PotPie Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 For the lab ray, is it completely random, or is there a higher chance of getting a certain event?
Jessica :) Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 For the lab ray, is it completely random, or is there a higher chance of getting a certain event? i find that i get alot more stat changes than color/gender changes. for example my lab pet was a yellow jubjub for about 3 weeks and had nothing but level/stat changes until a few days ago when it changed to Strawberry! but i think it's definitely worth it
stephie23 Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 Im thinking i might just spring for the second one... and use it for a battledome pet perhaps... the only problem is ... what if i zap it to something really really cool and I end up not wanting to change the species/colour :P (that would be just my luck)
lovedwallflower Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 definitley buy. you will get loads of useless stat changes (particularly useless if the pet you're zapping isnt a battledome pet) but a month of stat increases and decreases is very much worth the amazing colour changes the lab can give you. i've had the map for six months now, and i got lucky with my elephante when she changed to desert! (L) besides, think of all those exclusive lab colours. also, when you think about it, it isnt really all that expensive. i mean you can get 1 mill pretty easily in a week for sure if you put some effort..
stephie23 Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 1 mill in a week!? how the heck are you managing that ... give me some tips man :P
lovedwallflower Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 i just play keyquest a lot and sell all the stuff i get. from 10 games i usually get one item thats worth something.. a piece of the map etc..
