well another wasted night .... no log in might as well have played something else
been almost 3 hours. wasted time that i couldnt send exp out for the cheese point egg collection. if you have tons of exp thats a easy quest but with only a few need all the sends per day you can get. this past 3 hours would have been ??? eggs. oh well.
With the exception of the explorers nerf to the eggs return.
This event is rather decent. Better than the previous years. The strippy eggs are a lot easier to see than the previous years. No extra junk to collect on your island and crafting baskets and eggs.
The achievement building was a good idea. Glad they made it so that PvP was not required considering how hard it is to obtain eggs from expeditions.
mid event nerf was terrible
Glad I could get mma
any decision of how many coins / stripy egg we are going to get ?
ok I think I might have missed it but if I haven't I would like to point out we are MID EVENT... aka REMOVAL PHASE I.... and then ask again as someone asked earlier in the thread:
What is the egg to coin exchange rate?
Tug of War III: UserName Wars
For the We Need Friends sub-quest, why can't the settlers I create in the PH count towards this? I was trying to complete this subquest before midnight my time by creating settlers (which is also the wording in the text), but apparently they don't apply towards the sub-quest. This was within my 4th Easter quest that I just got yesterday.
The decrease in time for the quest chains was helpful and if it sticks will be even more helpful in future events. I managed to get through 5 quest chains, 4 of which were unique.
The unique residence with upgrades based on achievements was a nice change of pace. I found the path ultimately achievable without much trouble, though I could see how someone could get screwed by its implementation, notably random quest chains.
The nerfing of explorers part way through and then saying "We don't know how to fix it" (hint: revert back to the way it was at first so that people could get more than intended part of the event after having gotten less than intended for part of it) and never being able to fix it for the entire event was a problem with multiple easy solutions that never materialized, which I can only assume was deliberate.
Ultimately, I found the overall experience to be a good one thanks to the changes made after the sneak peak. I picked up all 4 specialists plus 2 floating residences and found the eggs in just enough supply to be able to do that. I didn't find I was lacking but had maybe about several hundred more than I needed.
Second MMA is huge. That makes the event for me, and I put it to great use already during the event. Picked up the other three just in case. For now, I'm just using the second vet for some extra troop ferrying and to save several minutes of waiting time per adventure, which is nowhere what I'm getting out of the MMA but does provide some benefit. Though I'm not doing PVP yet, I picked up the marshal just in case, and though he's useless so far, I don't want to be left in the dust just in case MOD gets buffed to something helpful.
Only other thing I would have liked was another explorer, but overall very pleased with my haul.
I just got the 5th quest this morning. Built lots of brewers to meet that before work, to see the 'very long search' 50 eggs. All my explorers were on very long searches. Got home from work to see NONE return with eggs.
5th quest. More eggs yay!
Still around from time to time.
Not that I can find with my explorers.....
