In that caseI may rethink buying the pond. I’ve had much better results from the now 2 goblins I’ve summoned. They are both on 8 hrs timers and every second collection spawns a goblin ranging from 5-90 hits. This happens all wk not just when MM visits. Will leave decos till more have been introduced, and till I have more space for fences etc.

Haven’t yet figured out whether the goblins are girls or boys, or maybe they prefer ‘they’.

Bartolo's info card. 8h collection time.

The last image is from Gur's slot, but the info text is the same as Bartolo. I forgot to take a print of bartolo's info before crafting and now it's locked.

So far the info on all the goblins (Gertie, Bartolo & Karan) that I’ve summoned has been the same both before and after. The only difference is some of MM words once they arrive. The tasks in each goblin’s ‘story’ are different, however the rewards for most tasks are rotten cabbages and the final rewards are Gertie - golden nuggets, Bartolo - golden eggs & Karan - golden apples. I think it was 5 of each. They all spawn goblins of all 3 types too (traveller, wanderer & seeker at all times) even after the final reward. I keep forgetting to take screen shots on all tasks, but will try harder to remember them as I go.

Mostly you get more than that 10 of each crystal, and every extra crystal that way costs only 1 energy to get them. eg: if you do a trade and get 14 purple, 12 orange and 11 blue that means you have earned 7 crystals for that 1 energy. I?ve done heaps of them and they?re paying off. While I?m watching TV in the evenings, and waiting for other items to mature, I tap on the trades. I?ve had quite a few coins as a result.

Of courseI purchased the portal first then I got MM (7 d timer)2nd as she drops 3-9 coins a week (I had 5,7,9,3) which only cost me the 1 energy to collect from her. I then did the crystal dragon (5 d timer) next because she gives crystals and a chance of coins. Some of the crystal amounts I?ve gotten from the dragon are in double digits, again for only 1 energy. Of course the way the crystal drops work you?ll end up with more purple than any others, when that happens I do the Travellers Trade which drops multiples of the other 2, and often drops all kinds of building materials (even frequently used ones) and I?ve had the occasional golden item too. Hope this info helps other players.

So far each of the characters that I?ve summoned have story lines that require some action. The first 2 rewarded me with multiple trade tickets, the third with expansion permits. I?m now on my first goblin. So far I?ve earned about 8 cabbages and final reward window shows a golden nugget. For me I find MM a great addition as it gives me something to do while waiting for some items to mature, and the rewards have been really good.

My crystal trades are no longer consistently returning more of the blue Seeker Crystals than they are using up.

Agreed. For the past week I've had way more Seeker Crystals compared to the others, literally 5 times as many!

The whole MM events work pretty much the same as MH’s. Purple crystals = shield tokens, orange crystals = sword tokens, and blue crystals = staff tokens. They are required 50 purple, 25 orange and 25 blue to make 1 seeker coin. Then craft/summon items for your realm. I’m finding that I’m still getting a net positive numbers (mostly) of crystals per trade, I’m not too upset about the rewards that are a loss of 1-2 crystals because it only happens a few times while building up stores. Again, as with lots of events and rewards, patience is a key factor. I do prefer the crystal trades because I’ve had up to 45 extra crystals (25 purple, 5 orange and 10 blue) for 1 energy used. I know that seems like a big amount of crystals and it doesn’t happen often, but it does happen. I’m sorry my experience is a mostly positive one and that other player’s don’t. It reminds me of how only a few players get the free give from adventures during events just like the Hummingbird Queen in this current event. I’d rather accept some losses on some trades than have to spend gems finishing tasks (but that’s just me, I suppose)

I have little interest in many of the items I’m yet to craft/summon in MRC during MH’s, so was quite excited when this new similar ongoing event came along and the hits on goblin spawns count towards points in MH’s too, so less lost energy collecting tokens. Of the 3 goblins I’ve summoned so far all drop items that can be used in the gnomish mine, which has started showing up in Elven trades. I have lots of energy and coins and am basically waiting for more land to open up that is not part of a storyline, and changing the layout of my Queendom. I will keep doing MM tasks for as long as I’m able to (until more interesting characters and deco’s are available). I like to think that all players have positive outcomes while playing CS. :tickled_pink:

I'm still only up to 34 Seeker's Coins. A few more weeks and maybe I can get something.
