Once you're comfy (~2000 for me) move the to 10 token slots and do the same (make sure you always bump stake up 9 times to 90). Start on the 1 token slots, jack up the stake to 9 tokens, spin, repeat - you'll eventually get metal mode and/or free spins and/or token troves, and you'll pile up tokens. You can get easy tokens button mashing the regular slots with a low cost gold investment (start with 1-200 tokens). Maybe I just got lucky, or maybe it was the magic machine (I didn't check with the woman), but I did read about this before doing it.)
I wouldn't be surprised at all if this was intentional and winning was gated to prevent uber items at a low level.
First time I went I won a bunch and eventually it seemed like I couldn't win at all, went out in did stuff for a while, came back, won a little more. Talk to the woman near the token vendor - she'll tell you which machine is hot.Ĭasino seems rigged to me and I swear your 'luck' is gated to your level and/or progress, but it could just be my imagination.
