Hi all
Hope this guide can make events more easier to accomplish and answer some FAQ . this guide cover progressive , Maze and 72 hour challenge Events
Pools ! what is it ?
Lets take an example with pvp
- The max number of attacks you can have at any time is 3 . this equal pool capacity so pvp pool is 3
- If you did 3 pvp attacks , you will have to wait 2 hours before you can do another attack .. the spwan time for pvp is 2 hours .and it will take 6 hours to fill the pool to max
- what will happen if i waited more than 6 hours ?
Nothing . the timer will be stopped and no more pvp attacks will be added to your game till you at least do 1 attack .
1- Progressive Islands
Monsters and rewards are placed in linear order so you canot pick your reward , you have to clear it Progressively and hence comes the name from .
You have to do certain actions like collecting gold. feeding monsters , fighting ,breed or hatch to earn points , and every items has its own pools capacity and spawn timers so
- Gold pool capacity is 6 and spawn time is 1h20m ---(Get full in 8 hours)
- Feeding pool capacity is 4 and spawn time is 2 h ---( Get full in 8 hours)
- breeding pool capacity is 1 and spawn time is 8 h ---( Get full in 8 hours)
- hatching Pool capacity is 1 and spawn time is 8 h ---( Get full in 8 hours)
So If event for example started at 1 Pm and first node require 22 gold.12 feed and 3 breed like the photo above how the event will go
1 Pm : i will collect gold and feed and breed --- **See tips below**
-- so i will get 6 gold items and 4 feed and 1 breed
2 pm : if i repeated all the above action i will not get anything as all the pools are empty
2:20 pm : there is new 1 item in gold pool so if i collect gold i can get 1 more gold items but feeding pool is still empty
3 pm : there is a new item in feed pool so if i feed i can get 1 more feeding item
3:40 : new 1 gold items is add to gold and so on
**Confused !! how should i play this event ?
No need to worry , this event is actually the least tiresome between the 3 events
If you noticed all the pools are full after 8 hours . so all you need is to time your action
In the above example .. when the event start go and collect gold . feed and breed till you have 6,4,1 items - Respectively - after that you can play the game your style but after 8 hours is passed repeat the above cycle so your items are 12,8,2 - Respectively - and so on ... This is 8 hours events so even lazy or busy players can do it by timing the logging every 8 hours
Island Boost
Sometimes we have it , So what does it mean ?
it mean that every thing take 50% less time so during the boost
- Collect Gold pool capacity is 6 and spawn time is 40m ---(Get full in 4 hours)
- Feeding pool capacity is 4 and spawn time is 1 h ---( Get full in 4 hours)
- breeding pool capacity is 1 and spawn time is 4 h ---( Get full in 4 hours)
- hatching Pool capacity is 1 and spawn time is 4 h ---( Get full in 4 hours)
Notice that the pool capacity is fixed , so during the boost it is 4 hours events not 8 hours one
Tips and Tricks
- The items drop is chance based . this mean 2 things
1- all players are equal in those type of events --- of course if no gems spent --- so every one will get 6 gold items every 8 hours regardless the player level
2- the items drop DOESN'T
depend on the amount of gold collected or amount of food feeded or the length or quality of the breed
-
For gold items keep collecting every time you log to your game . or when the gold icon appear on habitat easy pesy
-
For feeding . to maximize the use of your food especially if you have nothing to feed then every 8 hours hatch some common - Firesaur for example 15 sec hatch - and feed it to level 10 .. if still not get your 4 items , sell and repeate
If you already have something to feed , then it is perfect as no food is wasted here -
For Breeding and hatch . again it is a a chance drop item so short combo are preferred ,, some combo that works for some players are pandaken one -- fire and nature common --- took 30 sec , or use treezard + thundenix 30 sec too
3- if you got like 5 gold and 3 feed though you waited 8 hours , restarting the game and re collect and feed usually fix this . same for breed and hatch of course
4-when you finish a node and start new one , the pools are full
so you may get 6 gold.4 food.1 breed items and finish node with gems . then instantly again collect 6,4,1 items . Only fight timer is not reset with new nodes
5- Though it is very old issue but i still see some players mention it ,it is about pool timer reset . Back in old days logging to game will cause that so we were forced not to touch our game for 8 hours , 1 login by mistake and you lose items but now there is no reset . log as much as you can
6- progressive island are impossible to finish without spending gems . So either progress totaly with 0 gems .. or decide you target and spend a little to get it or go all wild and finish it all if you like . It is up to you and usually in each event topic we have gem chart which help decide what to get and how much to Spend so make sure to check those
Last . All feedback , suggestions and correction are welcomed so if you have any just comment so i can edit or add it
