so we've been waiting and waiting to see what wonderous item this weekend will bring. after an hour we checked the items tab redeemed and saw the daily box. so we opened the box.... and BAM!!!!! 5 hard leathers. so if we get the premium accts well get these kinds of crap too?

There are many various boxes possible inside the Daily Box. Gold Bars, EXP medals, Grade 4 and 5 Gems have all been reported as being found inside the Daily Box. These daily gifts are given out to all Premium Users as a thank you for being a Premium user. These are on top of the benefits that are gained by becoming a Premium user. Every day, for just being a Premium user, you will be rewarded with free items as a thank you. Some days you may love the gift, other days, maybe not so much, but every day, you will get one!

3 black powders (from a box of catalysts) and an Emerald IV.
I realize being a premium on my two accounts i would multiply the possibilities by 60. Still, black powders (or hard leathers) don't fit im my idea of what a premium reward should be. Well in a way im ok that the rewards arent what many probably expected since i am against premium accounts for reasons i already stated weeks ago.
As a business i understand Gravity is looking for new ways to make money, but from what i've read so far i'm sceptic about the premium accounts way. Time will tell how this work i guess.
On a brighter note, good or not, the fact we get rewards (on non premium accounts) this week end is nice. It's obviously a marketing strategy but still. So a thank you is in order!

do u consider it fair to be like this if we are PAYING for the service its our money we r giving u, its not FREE, we are the costumers, we are investing our money, give us something that is worth the money we are paying. gem 4 n 5 for what? medals ummm ive opened 4 boxes and got 4 jewel chest 2 why r u giving things u can easily get in game? so the medals are rare, people paying for premium service and is still a pain for gravity to give them something good? the premium quests havent even been implemented, if the quests are gonna be the same thing as the daily item then dont make a premium service cause this more like a "Give Us Your Money" service. you should see things from the costumer's/ player's point of view not the i think its ok point of view.

They didn't have to give you this perk at all if you read his post it says this is ontop of the other benefits of the premium accounts. As a thank you for being a premium user.

I understand that there would be stuff that might not be worth much, but I at least expect something to entice us to go and get the premium acccts. this is ur trial period for the premium accts and you are disappointng of players. but again this is just me saying. im just 1 speck of dust in the game

the benefits of premium account should not be called benefits, i know that thy are just testing the daily item stuff but if its gonna be this way when they start charging for the service you will see that alot of people wont buy, if gravity needs money then do something that really calls the player's attention and you will see lots of people buying premium, but like premium is right now a tiny bit more of exp, drops and crappy item? wow i really love this premium its making me feel my money was worth investing(sarcasm) why did they even waste time on this premium thing? zurn i dont wanna fight nor discuss with you i know u have to defend your opinion and your point of view but be honest with youself dont lie to yourself, do you really think gravity is doing a good job? you know they are not, you think this premium service is a good idea and its a good service? you know its not.

zurn i dont wanna fight nor discuss with you i know u have to defend your opinion and your point of view but be honest with yourself, do you really think gravity is doing a good job? you know they are not, you think this premium service is a good idea and its a good service? you know its not.

never said it was a good idea, just repeating what Zeppelin had posted~

and tbh i disliked 2/3 things that i got but that's life

1.Aurum (5) - good for crafting i suppose if i crafted stuff
2.Wool (5) - good for crafting i suppose if i crafted stuff
3.2x xp medal on a new character i was leveling

i dont know if its good or not i haven't seen all the options they have listed yet.

i do know that depending on the quests i may partake in the premium service or i may not

but i agree i dont really wanna fight ya, you have yourself a nice day ScarletDragon!

what would kill gravity if they just remove those crap items like wood, leather and so on and give us only 2x exp, goldbars and so on

i mean seriously: 2x exp for 10 minutes is not that big deal, neither a 1mil goldbar

How are you getting the items? I was logged in 3 accounts for 4 hours + and I have yet to receive anything. Maybe I am missing where these will appear exactly?

I don't see anything wrong with the randomized daily boxes. So what if I got some denim, and some other crud I dropped and forgot about, at least I had a slight chance to get something good, and if I miss my chance, a box of cloth or a gold bar it is...Then onto the next day to try my "luck" again. As paying subscribers people will have 30 days to get some good stuff. In that time I'm sure you would get something good enough for you. Just be patient... Give it a few days, perhaps if you are still unsure about subscribing after the free subs end, ask a friend and see what they are getting, then make your decision based on that...To be quite honest, I wouldn't complain a whole lot as you get thirty days dbl xp, dbl drops, all 4 premium storages, 8 character slots, and free daily items for the low price of a large bag of chips. Seems worth it once all of the bugs and the horrible drops are fixed.

5 wool, what can one say.. Item Mall never stops surprising you.
(And a friend recieved Jewel Chest grade 1)

Now, where are the Quests?

What of the people that paid for Item Mall before this (since you CAN pay for it already, and they maybe missed it was still free for some time) and this hasn't been working, will they get extra boxes etc? Since they have paid for what you have written that they would recieve. I have also failed in seing any new quests but maybe someone can enlighten me if they have found them? And the creation of more characters wasn't working properly to begin with either? What are we really supposed to pay for? I do hope I have missed something of significant weight.

Oh.. Storage Space, 20% Drop and 30% Exp - 2USD for 4 days. adds up to 182 USD a year. 6USD for 30 days adds up to 72.8 USD - if not then please correct me. I don't know how to comment this, you be the judge of it.


They didn't have to give you this perk at all if you read his post it says this is ontop of the other benefits of the premium accounts. As a thank you for being a premium user.


And aren't the extra exp I gain from paying for premium a "thank you" for being a premium customer? Isn't that a "gift" from them to me as I would choose to pay for it?

It's part of the item mall. And I cannot see anywhere else that it says the box is ontop of everything as a special thank you, apart from here where Zeppelin says so. In the commercial we recieve it does not state this. When you pay for premium it does not say so, quite simply I do not understand the argument.

Premium Accounts will get 1 free item daily. Users must login daily to retrieve the free item.

These items will not be tradeable and are restricted to the account once redeemed.


  • Premium Content Access & Quests*


What kind of Premium Access does he mean one might wonder, Instances, Maps? I don't see any information of this, can someone point me in the right direction?

wow... some people are never happy... yeah, on the accounts that I log into and received the free daily item... I got a box of wood (aromatic wood x5) a box of metal (steel x 5) a gemIV box (sunstone 4 x 1) and a x2 10 minute exp medal... not the best items in the world, but it is free...

Not sure if anyone has Charter as a service provider for cable or if other companies have the same type of ondemand that charter has... but they give you the on demand for free... even though the only way you can access it is if you have the channels that are part of ondemand... if you want to watch a movie that is ondemand and you don't pay for that service, you can't watch it... now, when it goes down and is unable to work, they will not credit you a penny, because they claim it is a free service they add for paying customers... what they told me one time was that they could credit my account $0.00 because that service was a free part of my subscription...

So look at the "free daily item" in the same aspect... it is something added free to a paying account... they don't have to include it, but they do as an added perk... even if it isn't anything that is completely worthwhile... it is still free...

Be happy for once and try not to complain about everything they try and do... maybe to make people happy they should put a medal in the "free daily item" called "Magical Medal of Everything"... when this medal is used, you automatically become level 220, have 999billion zulie, and have every rare item in the game refined to (15) if applicable. You are the champion!
Chance to get this item is 100%

Even then, people would complain... seriously, for a free daily item, what more do you really want???

Sure, I think they can tweak things... the wood and the metal isn't very much likely to make people want to pay... but how many other items are in this randomness that have yet to be received???

Think the free item is a joke... then don't grab the free item... but your curiosity will more than likely get the best of you... and of course... a reason to complai more about free... afterall, rose is free, and look how many people complain about that???

We are supposed to pay for Premium Accounts. I wouldn't claim it is free if you pay for getting the "free daily item".

i really dont agree with you at all and dont come with that exagerated drama stuff of lvl 220 999b zullies and all rare items in game 15+.
if you are gonna pay for a service so called premium the service should be good and if they r giving u free daily itemss they should give u im stuff 1 per day randome not wood, metal, leather and this stuff.
GRAVITY wants money and they cant say no cause we all know its true, but their marketing and money making way of thinking really sucks cause if you want to make money you dont have to do desperate things like premium and so to make money, they wanna squeeze all the money from the players they have right now instead of making things to make the players happy, to atract more players, to make players in game so happy that they start recomending the game, things to make people love rose and people say wow rose is a really good game, but with things like this daily item thats is crap and a PREMIUM service that should be called "Give Me Your Money" service is why people quit rose, everyday we have less players in game, people saying rose is one of the worst games ever when they have to make it more atractive and fun, you must see videos from jrose OMG that rose is reaaallyy good and i bet they dont give crappy stuff like daily item "wood" yeah am gonna smoke it!
