This is why I bought 10 savage scouts right before Christmas. I knew a large part of their value was going to be in event treasure searches. Of course, at that time I didn't actually need to buy anything and so ended up with 46k grout.
Regardless, assuming that the explorers remain nerfed next year, I could see the potential for the randomness to make it so that even people with a lot of explorers get the shaft.
meh nvm
3200 eggs was never in reach for 3/4 of the players how is that fair
I got about 2800 eggs from explorers the first week, and it took me another week to get the last 400 after the nerf.
Didn't matter, I didn't like enough aspects of this game to play them to get the last level of the house. I'm happy with the settlers I received. Would have liked to hit level 6 but not at the cost of my enjoyment. I got level 5 very early on and had no desire to "work" for level 6.
I did enjoy this Easter even, even though it was the most poorly run of any I have experienced.
