[quote=1403216174][author]<em>Retired breeder</em>[/author]I have four hops and am wondering, which divine has better advantages? Would it be better for me to spend them on Agate or Cancer? Or can someone tell me their advantages?[/quote:0]


Personally as a Cancer I would wait if you were born in July. It is quite likely that since we have had two Gemstones already that Ruby (the birthstone for July) may come out as well, which guarantees 5 diamonds every 12 days (the only Gemstone which rivals this is Sapphire, which is 1 diamond every 2 days). Otherwise if you want Pearl (birthstone for June), the benefits aren't guaranteed.

However given that a 5th element is worth about 2 passes, and you only get the prize once per year, Ruby would be much more fruitful (15 passes worth).

Although you may want a Cancer simply since it's more personal, and of course it is not guaranteed that Ruby may come at all, or what method he may come.

If it helps you any, I looked back on my history of items and in the past 30 days, I've gotten a total of 8 diamonds from Agate.

Agate gives one diamond every 4 days

I guess I'll go for Agate... Maybe. Does anyone know which Gem Divine will be next?

We never know what divines are coming in luck items or when they are coming in luck items.

I spent around 60-70 passes for Opal and only 2 HoPs (one from inventory) for Agate, so..it is possible different server tho.

I spent over 90 passes to get Opal at the Norwegian server
I doubt I'll win anything with the six passes I've got here. But I'll give Agate a shot anyway x)

Got him at my last HoP actually, six passes spent.

I wasted 84 passes trying for Opal wont do it again. I did open the 3 HOP I had and my 20 diamonds no luck what a surprise. I haven't even earned back my passes from Opal yet it will be awhile. it's sad. I did ask what the odds where on the luck items and was told they can not tell me, cause I think the odds have changed; I have won 5 of the rainbows, and many other divines in luck items. I don't remember spending more then 20-22 passes.

Despite the fact I have already opened the most useless HOP in history, I'm going to try again... Wish me luck!

Yeah, I give up on luck items. Oh well. I guess I'm saving up for a reserved divine then.

I managed to get Opal after one try, so I'm thinking my luck will run out if I go for Agate. Saving my passes

I managed to get Agate -my first divine- on my first try with a HOP I got from Xanthos. Good luck to those that are also trying to get him.
I've made a promise to myself that I won't open up any more HOPs the next time a divine is given out, because I'm probably going to have super bad luck next time

What's the next promo?

The next promotion is:

the schedules for the plant promotion all suggest saving water and using it all at the end. Why is that?

It really depends I guess as you can only grow five at a time. If I was to give me opinion on the reason it would be so you can then plant, harvest, and so on. But you end up missing out on the daily growth if you just wait till the end.

Failed to get Agate. Got some pretty awesome BMIs, though!

Don't know who's "schedules" you are referring to but it would be the last thing I would recommend.

But to each their own.

I spent 3 passes total, because I sent two horses to heaven and sold a horse for a pass so I figured why not try and see. I actually got some decent black market items! I was honestly surprised.

On the US version I opened one HOP and got Agate. Here I've opened 3 so far and haven't gotten him.

@ Epona's Loyalty and @ Spyder,

it was the main overview of the plant promotion posted in this topic. I don't believe you miss out on the daily plant growth, as the plants you leave in just get the boost instead of a new one each day. I don't see any harm in it (and I'd be interested to know why you think it is bad?) but I also don't see the benefit so I was curious.

it was this one.
I actually do see a benefit - yellow plants grow the most each day (10%). So by waiting, you ensure you always have 5 yellow plants growing and thus the maximum daily gain. If I had green plants growing, they'd only increase 8%. Unless that's counteracted by the more water needed for green ones?
