Talk:Risia Ice Games

There seems to be some uncertainty about Risia this year with the new Barter Box and minimum level requirements. Speculation that perhaps the code change was a copy/paste with descriptions of ML increases, but not the actual end product w/ ML increases (that is the hope, anyway). Needs confirmation: http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?p=4242164#post4242164 --Cauthey 15:12, January 3, 2012 (EST)

"As of December 2010, the runes are disabled and the only way to get to the top of the pillar or get the purple coin in Bogwater is for someone already up on the pillar to teleport you up using a Bracelet of Friends or a Greater Bracelet of Friends. Many people have previously created a character solely for the purpose of staying up on the pillar." - Ctlarson
 * I don't see this at all on Orien server. The runes still function in just the way they always have. Backley 04:43, January 18, 2011 (EST)

recipe percentages
Traded in 393 white (131 trades), then 214 blue (107 trades), then 153 purples. When I traded in whites, I might have missed counting the recipe 3/20s. This would affect my calculations for white and blue percentages only. I included calculations assuming I did and didn't.

It seems that *every* turn in has ~5-7% chance of returning any specific recipe.


 * 1) recipes received / # specific recipes / # trades = average chance of a specific recipe per turn in
 * 2) motes received / # trades = average # motes per turn in

recipes: 35 (might have missed counting r3s)
35 / 6 / 131 =~ 4.453% chance of specific recipe per turn in (if my numbers are correct) 35 / 5 / 131 =~ 5.344% chance of specific recipe per turn in (if I missed the r3s)

motes: 176
176 / 131 =~ 1.344 motes per turn in

recipes: 84 (72 not including r3s)
84 / 12 / 107 =~ 6.542% chance of specific recipe per turn in (if my numbers are correct) 72 / 11 / 107 =~ 6.117% chance of specific recipe per turn in (if I missed the r3s for the white coin turn ins)

motes: 1068
1068 / 107 =~ 9.981 motes per turn in

recipes: 153 (this is the only one that agrees with the current percentages listed in the main article)
153 / 20 / 153 = 5% chance of specific recipe per turn in

motes: 3249
3249 / 153 =~ 21.235 motes per turn in

/* Risia Ice Game Coin Drops */ replacement proposal
All count as Collectibles and go into your Collectible Bag. Collect them in quests by killing fire-based creatures, or, invest 10 of your "Whites" to rent or Turbine Points to buy the Risia Ice Game Ice Skates and play the Ice Games to get more.

Risia Ice Games "hidden teleporter"
There is a type of Teleportation "Easter egg" for better words; in the Harbour if you go to the area where the NPCs are standing by the Stormreach Lighthouse.

There is an area of ice where there are a couple of ice ramps and like a small skating rink.

If you approach the ice block ramp from the ground level (choose the one with the netting attached) from the Lighthouse side... You can actually enter the block itself and get teleported back to near the start of the Ice race track higher up in the Harbour close to where Dalsamira Courdry stands. It tends to work best if you enter from the ice-bock face; closest to the Lighthouse (back of ramp) as the sides of the ramp or block won't teleport you back. I didn't know where to place this trivia so placing it here. The other ramp doesn't teleport you back.

There is also at least an second "Hidden teleporter" down by that Harbour "skating rink"; it's actually underwater, again entering an specific ice-block allows you to teleport. If you Swim under the water close to the seabed roughly below the Risian Altar Crafting device and keep trying to swim through that face of ice; moving closer to the main harbour (underwater part of the rink wall) you'll eventually hit the teleport block (and teleport to the same location as above).
