Hooray! The music is back!
Thank you for letting us acquire three village schools, since it is frustrating at times waiting for the army to rebuild. I need those schools.
Thank you also for the Conscientious Geologist since some deposits are larger than others, especially the new island 800 irons. He should assure those new island deposits keep getting activated.
Most of all, thank you for not altering the basic scheme of this Event. It makes it easy to plan for this Event after doing prior ones. I can apply what I learned doing it last time.
I wish there was a Fairy Fire buff usable only during this Event. That way if I could not find many spawned pumpkins, I could produce that buff to find them. I often miss half my collectibles since I have many tall buildings concealing them.
Looking forward to it. Am pretty excited about the improved farms. So I have to ask this question BB_Endesmor: will improved farms be available in the shop after Halloween is over, or are they a limited item only available at Halloween?

Sweet!! Events are da best. Lookin forward to adventuring and sending explorers out for pu'ins!!! The hunt will start t-minus 4 days!!!! BeAsTmOdE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Explorers will not bring back pumpkins. You can keep hoping though.
Yea it is sad that explorers won't bring anything back this year. i was wondering you guys said that "Finishing several adventures might lead to pumpkin drops (according adventures are listed in the game)" where is this list of adventures or will it be provided after the Halloween event has started?
There is no official list provided for the adventure pumpkin drops. However, several fan sites have published lists based on either last year's information or test server information. Here are a few sample links:Quote:

Please don't remove pumpkin fields after event, i use them as decorations on the island with cute graphics and colors.
So Lord Dracul is a lesser MMA. What is his damage?
Also what's the new Geologist's rate of getting 2 deposits, and what effect will the skills that allow for 2 deposits have on that geologist?
Since it says "whenever possible," I'd assume always.
FOrget all the mumbo jumbo just get the genny and geologist and use it. You will find out then!!Quote:

looking good, always love the events
What are those icons for the achievements for? Is the achievements like Easter? Where you get points to upgrade a building? Or do you just get pumpkins for completing.

So then removal phases they just set all the fields to 0. Same concept should be used on granite and nursery. Building remains. Sell Refills.
I guess I have been crying about this ingame, so might as well do it here too. The Easter Basket Residence was great. An actual point to achievements. While I dare not complain about all the pumpkins I will be getting from the Halloween achievements, I cannot say that I was not disappointed to find out there was not something special. A pumpkin carriage residence would have been nice. Though it is too late for us now, what about Christmas? Perhaps Santa's Sleigh or Workshop as a residence? Because if it is just presents as rewards for the achievements then, sad times.
I dunno, the Easter residence isn't particularly attractive and when I get my next WT, it's gone. So I don't think I'd care for a pumpkin house, unless BB wants to make a remodel kit available were we can turn these themed buildings into something less cutesy.Quote:

Given the cost of the grilled steak buff, some fish farms will still be useful for many. I mean to make 25, you'd have to have a 12,500 meat surplus every two days, or 3125 every 12 hrs.

Looking good, if I could get a rough estimate on how many buffs I need to make for the pumpkin patches. Anyone remember from previous events how long they actually lasted?
Rainbow snow pretty much covers the noble patch. The others last for much, much longer.
Noble patch 4.1666 days
Common patch 13.3333 days
Small patch 15 days
Hmm, 3 rainbows and 90 stadium snacks. Ouch.
I think last year I just used fishes.
I'll be glad the music is back but please don't remove the pumpkin fields after, I think they make good decorations..
I love It! Is there any way to download the spooky soundtrack? I find it very relaxing and would love to have a copy :)
I started during the Halloween event a few years back. I figured there was always music and was sad when it disappeared. The Christmas music last year was too much and would drive people to unspeakable things. Hooray for the three weeks a year that I can turn the music on.Quote:

Please address this ASAP.
Thanks!
The Halloween Event has been a nightmare for me and others who are under lvl 37. We're not getting the pumpkins in adventures or collectables like the higher lvl folks are getting. I've sent this to support but as yet I've not heard back why this is so...surely it is unfair to players who haven't leveled up to 50 yet. Even guild members have commented on the unfairness displayed in the game. It's rather hard to level up as it is in this game. It is very frustrating and I often feel like giving up the game completely because of it's unfair design.
Then there is the serious lag in the game. I haven't lost troops as my guildmates have done, but it really does mess us up...including being booted by the overloaded server. What is up with that? If there aren't enough servers to handle the current load, does that mean there soon will be or will this just get progressively worse as we go along?
Also, instead of the million different guides that are out there, as long as you're putting the enemy troops over a camp when you hover, why don't you offer this instead:
enemy 60 Militia Deserter 60 Bowman Deserter vs 160 R
You could also have the required troops that are needed in the info box for the adventure being viewed prior to selection. Also, why is it that you have to go back to your island to keep adding troops? Why isn't there a better transfer method employed?
Well guides technically weren't how adventures were supposed to be done. They aren't supported by BB in any way - and use them at your own risk. Some guides may be wrong, and you already have combat preview for a rough idea of the battle.
my result of pumpkins drop in 90 LS of BK
0 pumpkin: 18 times (20%)
18 pumpkins: 47 times (52%)
63 pumpkins: 25 times (28%)
total 2421 pumpkins, average 26.9 per LS.
I have just the complaint that there is really an uneven drop of pumpkin collectibles. I am using the fairy dust if I don't find all, I am at 78. Not sure if the achievement is doable, but some guild mates had 27, 28 collectibles each drop compared to my 16 if lucky, and they find several pumpkins each time. I am happy to find 3 once in a while. Obviously, they already got the 100 achievement, and I am not sure I can get there.
Otherwise it is fine, but just out of curiosity, why are the high probability pumpkin drops just in certain adventures, like BK? I ran so many I want to curl up in a fetal position now, lol. It would be less brainmelting if all adventures have drops that are similar in each category, so we could mix it up more. I almost miss running RB :P
62 of 100, BOOOOO BOOOOO. the lack of pumpkin collectables is the only thing that scared me this Halloween
I think it would be nice for the halloween event to have a mega aunt irama's basket that give you 4 times the amount for 24 hours. I know it would cost a lot to make but it would help when people have to work that way they would not have to keep switching them off and it mean you would make the most of your pumpkin cemetery.
