I am keeping to buying 6 a day (2 from each kiosk) to have a good representation of results.

So far, I have done very, very badly. Worse boon by far for me.

Doing this boon though made me find out something interesting that after 15 odd years on Neo, I didn't know or forget - you can scratch unlimited amount of cards at the Lost Desert Scratchcard Kiosk. You can buy every 4 hours. That means you are not stuck to 5 scratchies a day.

EDIT: Typo!! Indeed, the LD Kiosk is every 4 hours.

I will never use that boon again. Worst outcome for any boon I have used.

That definitely proves the point that I sholdn't gamble! I suck at it!! LOL.

I've got 3 left to scratch. It's doubtful I'll get back to neopets again today. Right now, my total is around 15.8k, so my minimum for the boon is just over 13k. Beats carto and bank. Unless I win 5-10k from all 3, not as good as the stock boon, but I didn't buy nearly as many as I could have.

Totals from the wheels boon:
96,062 nps net positive
+41 items (yeah, I ain't got time to price all those out, but they're in my SDB), +3 lotto tickets, and the loss of one Intelligence point from my active (not main pet)

Unfortunately, this was a LOT of work this week, remembering to go as often as possible. It's still technically better than the stock or bank boon (if my daily average of 13,723nps gained is 'normal').

How about Sway for the good boons?

Sway is always a good choice. I am swayed! :)

Sway sounds good to me. I think I still have a cookie around somewhere. Maybe. I'm on the bandwagon!

I managed 10 battles against each boss yesterday. We'll see if I manage any more...

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 8]

I got in some against each, probably won't be doing much more if any.

Sway Wins! Woot!

I was tempted by the Refreshed Quest, but went with the Stock Boon this time.

Woot! Went with FQR. Only 2 cookies left after this one, though...
