I wanted to share some of my data on the Gold Wheel rewards that I've collected over the last couple of days. First, some baseline info: I tracked rewards for 200 Gold Wheel spins; I was level 20 and 21 for these races; In all of the races I used the following Level 10 dragons: Ulster Meadows - Tree, Electric Skies - Sonic, Marshlands - Swamp, Rime or Reason - Snow, Blast Furnace - Brass, Dramoria - Mine, Shimmering Faultline - Crystal, Cherry Road - Poison/Flower (evenly divided), Year of the Dragon - Lava/Blazing (evenly divided). Over the 200 races, I won a total of $8,075,000 Dragon Cash, 189,000 food, 30,423,500 Experience, and 4 gems, including bonuses. I got 35 bonuses over the 200 races, 15 cash bonuses and 20 experience bonuses. I never got a food bonus. Every cash bonus I got came after getting either 2500 or 3000 food on the spinner, and 2500 food gave a bonus of $60,000 cash every time. I got 2 experience bonuses after spinning 3000 food, 3 after spinning $100,000 cash, and 15 after spinning $75,000 cash. No other spin gave a bonus.

Spin breakdown: 71 spins gave cash only; 18 spins gave cash with an experience bonus; 49 spins gave food only; 15 spins gave food with a cash bonus; 2 spins gave food with an experience bonus; 42 spins gave experience only, and 3 spins gave gems only.

If this data is an accurate sample, that means a Gold Wheel spin has roughly a 35% chance of cash, a 25% chance of food, a 20% chance of experience, a 17% chance of a bonus (10% exp, 7% cash), and a 1-2% chance of gems.

Payout: Roughly half of the Gold Wheel spins gave a cash payout. The average food award on the 66 spins which gave food was approximately 2800 food. The average experience award on the 62 spins which gave experience was 490,000 experience. Since the 200 races cost $10,000,000 cash to participate in, and I won $8,075,000 cash, the average cost of the food and experience awards was approximately $15,700 cash per spin.

I hope this is helpful. Later today, I’ll upload my spreadsheet and drop in a link to it in case anyone wants to see the raw data.
