I just looked and the 'buy list' is going to be pretty big for me for this event. Thanks for putting together the info.
With 5 specialists available, at nearly 14k eggs that's 2/3 of the total cost and I'm pretty happy to see them. My initial concern due to this is for the lower level players, who may purchase smaller items first and then be stuck in a gap between between huge purchase amounts near the end of the event.
And a question: Will the Courageous Explorer bring back twice as many eggs? Cause that would be cool and all if so, but knowing the answer will definitely affect the order of my purchases.
Very nice event for new players; otherwise, the longer one is playing this game, the less interesting these events are :(
Personally i am disappointed about the University building, i was hoping for something more exquisite.
My favorite thing is always the MMA. Not quite as much of a bump each time since I already have so many (and now Nusala), but it's a welcome addition to my adventuring.
Courageous explorer doing a double artifact search is nice. I'll be happy to have some more adventures as well because those champions definitely will have me doing more.
I have so many village schools that I don't even bother using bread to make settlers. I like another building that lets me gain population without having to think about it. I'm sure there are other better possible buildings, but this is still nice to have.
Will the new explorer also have two loot spots during an artifact search, or is that not considered a treasure search in this case also?
It works on artifact searches. I'm not sure it would have much value otherwise except during events. Between that and the double event resources, this should come in handy.
Is there anything planned for Old Friends adventure for the Easter Event
One thing that I'm concerned about on events that dole out event currency from adventures (pumpkins, eggs) is the tendency to have 0 as loot.
I see this factor as particularly punishing to lower level players and those with more limited playing hours. While nobody likes getting the old goose egg in loot, those of us with more resources (troops, population, time, ability to obtain more ls through swaps or purchases) get more opportunities for loot and unless we get a really bad run, we tend to see end results that are somewhat close to the average.
For players who have fewer opportunities at adventure loot, a run of zeroes can devastate their hopes of obtaining enough event currency for certain event prizes.
I would much prefer to see some sort of event currency drop from every adventure during these events. If that means lowering the middle and top end amounts some to meet a desired average, I'm quite fine with that. I'm also fine with some adventures being worth more than others, even if they're easier to run - I'd just like to see the RNG punishment factor eliminated.
I agree with tbonex
