Oh for... Over the last half hour or so I blew 4k into that pond and what do I get for it? 2 purples. Which I don't need. Which I won't be able to sell for more than a third of their price. Damn it.

Hasn't it occurred to anyone that THAT is the "secret rite"? "DoctorOctopus" has the idea...:

Reach in pocket.

Grab gold.

Throw in pond.

Repeat this until broke.

Go away.

Get more gold.

Rinse and repeat until some Koi takes pity on you and gives you an egg.

Start over again. :lol:

Why do you think I call this location on the World Map the "One-Pond Bandit"? :smirk:
LOL yes it's a complete goldmine. I hope Tristan removes some of those coins and several times a day, or pretty soon the koi won't have any water left to swim in

Actually, I already used the water from the Pond to make a chocolate Milkshake. And I made one large milkshake. I poured it into the Koi Pond for the Koi.
I think the Koi like me the most because I don't dump 300 gold onto their heads.
Busy with school but you can find ways to contact me on my profile if you need to reach me. ^_^

Searching through your pockets, you come up with a handful of coins, which you throw into the lake. Occasionally these offerings are rewarded with koi eggs. It can take a magi many journeys to this pond before being given an egg, but it is well worth the effort.
"Well worth the effort" indeed! I must've spent at least 3k on that pond already and I haven't gotten a thing :( Oh well. That's what gold mining is for…

Same. I haven't gotten anything since my last Silver Koi back in May.

EDIT: ...Scratch that, just got my first Dragon Koi :hooray:

I've wasted 30k, easily, using the 15g button. My boyfriend got a dragon koi on the third 15g shot.

This feels quite similar to the "Summon" BSA on Dragon Cave. Lots of people do it over and over again without success, and some succeed on their first try. :( I would like to be one of those people who succeed the first time…

I feel your pain. I've been tossing gold into that Pond for weeks now, and still nothing whatsoever!
