Adventure- Bonus Tickets?

[Ravvana]

I hear that others have been finding bonus tickets via adventures, which makes me want to start adventuring again!

I'm just wondering if bonus tickets are exclusive to the plains or desert, or can they be found in both locations? If they can be found in both (and this would be a question mainly for Silv), is there a higher chance or finding them in one or the other, or is it the same?

Thanks!

You can find agency items in any area, and which area you choose doesn't make a difference in the probabilities.

Very soon there will be things you'll find only in certain areas, but for right now the only difference the area choice makes is what pictures you see.

What is the chance of finding them? I've never found more than the occasional artifact, never an agency item. Is it because i don't do the adventure for long enough at a time, or bad luck?

I've never found an agency item either - I think they're quite hard to find. >.<

I get frustrated with having to pace my clicking and give up fairly quickly XD

The only agency item I found was I believe a black fosfire from Okibi. Everything else I find seems to be fiber or cotton XD

I searched for over an hour and a half one day and nada.

You have a certain percent chance of finding something, and that percent chance changes depending on how recently you 1. found something else and 2. claimed something else.  It's possible but very unlikely to find another something immediately after claiming something you've found.

When you do find something, it has a certain percent chance of being any particular findable thing.  Site artifacts have a higher chance of being found than agency items.  Agencies set how common or rare their items are.  Bonus tickets have the highest possible rarity, so they are a very rare find.  That having been said, some people have found them, so it really does happen.

I used to find kennel beds rather often.  When my good comp was working, I would have a search page open on my older monitor and I'd search while watching movies on my newer monitor (I had a duel monitor set up before comp died).  I would search during commercials, and always found quite a bit.  Sometimes I search while I read a book too.  It's really a lot better (less frustrating/boring) to do if you combine the adventuring with something else.
