    "Collectibles" event is a FARCE!

    The only rewards worthwhile are those that need "foodcarts". I have gathered about 300 "herbs" and SIX foodcarts! I haven't found a foodcart in 4 days of getting 90% of collectibles (I refuse to spend 90% of my time looking for the last one or two collectibles. When I did, invariably they turned out to be herbs or scarecrows).

    This event is extremely time consuming for little or no reward. I'm done with searching.

    I tend to agree with you. Where are the food carts?
    If something can go wrong, it will.

    Bronze Cauldrons are only found on adventures. And then, its a random chance, but for me about 4/5 of my adventures have Cauldrons.

    ??? I find 60% zoomed out halfway, then get to 90% zoomed in. I don't have time to go over the whole island with a magnifying glass to find the last herb.

    I wholeheartedly agree with the OP. Its a time sink that has little to no value IMO.

    I usually find all of mine and yes scarecrows and herbs seem to be to most placed but it's still a free wheat depot so if you get lemons make lemonade

    You can make a Skunk and a triple buff for free provided you got the resources. While there could be some adjustment to the spawn rates, it's optional content and not even worth whining about (of course, your questbook flashing just about every 8h telling you about a new quest is superdimensional annoying...of course of course).

    Sorry they don't hand out those freebies with your daily login reward.
