Cloysterbell Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Have any of you ever gotten something good from the Coincidence? Because I've done it every day for the last three weeks and gotten nothing useful. They've all been "A blue shoyru swoops down" or "Is that Corbin and Kell outside?" or other useless ones. I haven't even gotten a negative stat change (not that I'm complaining about that one.) Should I continue doing the daily or am I wasting my time?

.Brianna. Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I gave up on the Coincidence a long time ago. In my opinion, it isn't worth it. If they start doling out retired avatars again then I will definitely take it back up, but until then I think the cost is significantly greater than the potential reward. kitkatlw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmadiemay Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I only do this daily if I have it in my SBD or the item is cheap. Fortunately I haven't gotten any negative stat changes lately, but I haven't gotten anything good either. I have heard of some people getting petpetpets? They would be a nice profit, but I'm sure it's a rare occurrence. pokeneodragon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totu487 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I'd say about half of the time, it's good and the other half? Er... Nothing. I mean, I haven't gotten anything bad from it yet! I suggest you shouldn't give up on it just yet. This one time, it gave me 24k and just today, it increased my Neopet's strength! :D But don't count on it too much. If you get nothing after spending a lot of NP, you will have just wasted them! Just do what most people do: Reject the quest if it's too expensive. For me (since I'm such Ms. Cheapo), the quest must be below 1k. Hope this helps!! ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slavecrown Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I only ever got nothing or REs that decreased my pet's stats from the Coincidence. Personally, I have a lot better luck with random events playing neggsweeper and various card games. Every once in a while I'll pop back in to the Coincidence, but if the items come to more than 50 NP, I don't bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avia loves Chias Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I gave up on the Coincidence a long time ago. In my opinion, it isn't worth it. If they start doling out retired avatars again then I will definitely take it back up, but until then I think the cost is significantly greater than the potential reward. i thought it still gives the avatar and that it's just a really rare occurrence? is it actually retired?

Cloysterbell Posted July 2, 2014 Author Share Posted July 2, 2014 Thanks for the help y'all! I think I'm gonna continue doing it, but only if it's cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelley Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 yes I also gave up on the thing XP although I know a good bunch of people who have gotten p3's. I don't think it's too much to risk seeing as all the items are pretty deflated. I wish you luck it in the future, maybe tomorrow will be your day! :) the best thing I've gotten are stats increases which are still pretty nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I have yet to get anything substantial, but I do get the occasional stat increase. As others have said I'd only do them if the items are cheap, but I do think it's worth it unless you find yourself receiving constant negative rewards.

slavecrown Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 i thought it still gives the avatar and that it's just a really rare occurrence? is it actually retired? She's referring to when the Coincidence first became a daily and a few people got REs that awarded them avatars (some of which were retired or for stamp collections). This has been disabled. According to this editorial, the Coincidence avatar itself is retired, but I haven't verified if that's true or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Brianna. Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 i thought it still gives the avatar and that it's just a really rare occurrence? is it actually retired? Evidently they were having issues with which avatars were being awarded shortly after it was released so the avatar "events" were put on indefinite hiatus..the coincidence avatar itself is no longer available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avia loves Chias Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 i see. i guess i must have read an outdated guide. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decchild Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I usually do them when it's really cheap or I have the things in my SDB, otherwise it's not worth it. I just hoard everything now. =D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maypls Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I only do them if each item asked for is under 1k. Even then, I've only gotten one stat increase, and I've been doing it for about three weeks now. I'm not a fan of how users are inflating the values of junk items because of it. But that's economics for ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eliang100 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I never do the quests unless the items are all under about 200np each. Even then though I'm wondering.... "what if this is the one that would give me a petpetpet?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lia Seeya Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 If the items are worth less than 1k apiece, then I'll probably do it. For the most part, I don't really pay much attention to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Lyuba Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Absolutely not. I quit on my first try because he was asking for an expensive junk item. Plus, the REs, from what I've heard, are either useless of negative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Valentine Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Haha, about 90% of the time I do it, I get nothing, so it's frustrating and I'd rather not go through the trouble anymore :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Nah. I just skip on it. I used to try to do it when I found out about the avatar but when I discovered that the avatar itself was retired, what was the point really? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quisquose Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I think it's worth it. I skip the expensive quests and I've managed to get 3 Petpetpets. I've made 900k from the sale of all 3. <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dayday0819 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I only do this daily if I have it in my SBD or the item is cheap. Fortunately I haven't gotten any negative stat changes lately, but I haven't gotten anything good either. I have heard of some people getting petpetpets? They would be a nice profit, but I'm sure it's a rare occurrence. I got a Mozito worth 350k and a Rainblug worth 850k in two sucessive days. I sold the Rainblug and still have the Mozito in the trades, but the profit on the Rainblug was great. Other than that though, I've barely won anything, especially recently. melnick and missmadiemay 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowangelmidori Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 The only valuable item I've gotten from it was a Vacumatic 9000 petpet. Aside from that it's just been a couple of stat increases/decreases and a constant steam of REs where nothing happens. I do it if the items cost less than 300 neopoints, but otherwise it doesn't seem to be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackberrypatch Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I tend to get REs that basically amount to nothing, or ones that take np away (e.g. the kadoatie one where you pay the owner to take it away). Sometimes I'll do a quest just for fun though. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
