Golden Apple Drop Rate

Thanks for all the info! Very interesting. Managed to get an apple today.

I have to agree with eepopp that it's more about what you collect from with regards to rarity. (amazing that you have 26 apples, so cool)

I collect from my trees as much as possible so 2 collections every 2 hours - more than a hatchery if I'm active. Will have to see how my split comes out without using my apples.

I've been collecting off my apple trees for over six weeks, and still no golden apple! I have over 20 gold eggs and multiple nuggets. What does it take to get one of these apples?

Perserverence....and then some. Random, ultra-rare drops are a b1tch.

You'll receive much more golden nuggets and eggs than apples.... So be careful how you spend them: use them for quests only, not the Golden Trade in the Royal Exchange until you have enough golden apples.

It's indeed a very rare drop: keep collecting and hoping...

agreed with zelda.. use them for quests only..

Thank you! I will take your advice and hold onto my golden items!

I asked the same question a day or so ago. I've been harvesting from my apple trees for months, but still no golden apple! I was given good advice to NOT use my golden apple at the Royal Exchange. So I will pass that on to you!

I Never Ever got a golden apple from the Magic garden !! ( Level 50 - Playing for almost 2 years)
And the last golden apple I got was from one of my 6 apple trees , 2 months ago !
I only have 3 in my stock!
Some of us just got bad luck with certain items lol.
PS. Forgot to also add the fruit trade which never gave me one, so I stopped it lol.

Yes hoard those precious golden apples the drops are few and far between!

Apples aren't that rare for me, I have 10 apples, 64 eggs, and no nuggets. I am lucky to get 3 nuggets a month.
