Anyone making use of the slots and reliquaries?

[Secret Master]

I was just curious if anyone has bothered spending time playing the slots or grabbing the reliquaries. Any interesting event chains or goodies?

It's lategame stuff. Nobody reaches the lategame due to lag...

There are at least some unique things you can get from Reliquaries. I found an ancient trade route chart that applied a permanent +10% Trade Value to my homeworld, although the other ones I opened were... less interesting. Playing slots, I'm given to believe, is straight up resource gambling without any 'unique' payout, and since there's a house cut... I didn't bother, except to burn off excess CaravanCoinz after my last Reliquary.

The lag is an issue and the dev reaallly have to take care about it. And I am afraid that it is not only the fault of whormholes, L-Gates, and trading hubs but rather all of them combined and even more.

About the reliquaries. Yes I use them and I am very sad that the amount of them is limited ; (
They are awesome and often realy contain something very useful.

Slots...not worth it imho only a few outcomes are worth the effort but they are rolled so rarely that you loose alot
of money overall.

I always open my six reliquaries, because it's fun.
Everybody is jealous of the Galatron (at least if you have closed borders to them )

I got a nice slots reward that provided like +60 energy and +60 minerals for 10 years. Of course that happened on my VERY first pull ever in Megacorps. After that I pulled the lever like 15 more times and got nothing about 10 times and the rest were just tiny rewards of more caravan coinz. I only opened like 1 reliquary, got a ship full of marbles or something I think, like +500 consumer goods iirc.

Remember slots are always rigged in favor of the house. Just look at Vegas.

Oh, 60 monthly? I've gotten 40 and I kind of figured that was max, I think it was over way more years than 10 though. Sounds like I have more to discover.

I opened one and got a bunch of space junk, but it gave me a decent boost to Eng research (2k iirc).

I just loaded the save to see if I still had it. Indeed it is 40 of each and for considerably longer. I don't remember when I got it but the timer says 12k days left, so maybe its 40 years?

While playing as humans, I found an ancient text Fragment in modern human language talking About the cyclical nature of time and love.

WHAT WAS, WILL BE, WHAT WILL BE, WAS.

Oh shoot, I was really hoping there was a +60 one. 40 years may be right, I can't actually remember other than "holy hell that's a lot of time."

It usually goes for 600 months, so 50 years which means 24k of energy and minerals.
