Wishing Well (Scene)
 |
You can find a Wishing Well in many Adventuring Areas and NPC Towns throughout New Britannia. There is also a wishing well that can be placed in Player Owned Towns. All of these wishing wells have the same base model, but may they have various decorations added to them such they may appear slightly different across scenes.
There are 3 types of wells: a wishing well, a Water Well, and a Well that Conceals Something. For details on the 3 well types, their function, and how to distinguish them, see the Well page.
The wishing well can be divided into two categories based on its location. When left-clicked, both of these wishing wells provide a bucket of water (and may provide a pattern).
- Wishing Well in an adventure scene or NPC town [referred to on this page as "Wishing Well (Scene)"] - when right-clicked, this well will display the "examine" menu.
- Wishing Well in a Player Owned Town (see Wishing Well for more info) - when right-clicked, this well may display the "examine" menu. When wishing wells are not located on a lot, they apparently only show the "examine menu" for stewards and governors of the player owned town. When the well is located on a lot, access to the well may depend on the permissions settings on the well and/or on the lot.
Note: You can obtain a bucket of water from both wishing wells and water wells (see #1 below); however, only wishing wells allow you to toss in a gold coin for a chance to obtain a reward.
Potential ways in which you can interact with a wishing well:
- 1) Left click on them - When you left click on a wishing well, you will always receive one Bucket of Water. Also, there a small chance it will give you the Pattern: Water Well Dungeon Entrance.
- 2) Right click on them - when you right click on a wishing well, a small menu pops-up that says "examine". If you click examine, you will be asked if you want to toss a coin in the well. If you toss a coin in the well, you have a chance to receive a randomly selected reward (such as a book or fireworks). You can increase your chances of getting a reward by equipping the following items: Ring of Luck, Ring of Luck, Greater, and/or Water Magic Cloak (note: you can equip 2 rings at a time). If you do not get a reward from the well, there is no "cool down" and you can immediately toss another coin in the well to try for a reward. If you get a reward from the well, there is a one week cooldown before you can toss another coin in the well (during this "cooldown", examining the well will show a chat message that "The item (wishing well) does not seem to do anything" and you will not be given the option to toss a coin in the well). You have to wait for the "cool down" to go away before you can toss in another coin.
