* Help! I can't see the upgrade button? If you do not see the upgrade button, click somewhere else on the board and then click back on the item. The buttons should return. Force close if still not showing.
* Help! The drops aren't going into my inventory! There is a counter on the top right of screen that records what drops. They do not go into inventory.

* To get the first individual prize, you need to collect 20 meal tickets.
* When you reach x, the next individual prize opens up for you and will show you how many meal tickets you will need for the next individual prize.
* Once you reach 63 meal tickets, you are eligible for any and all of the prizes that are earned by the community (shown on the second row).
* The total number of meal tickets is updated on the counter as soon as they drop, not when they are collected.
* Be mindful that upgrading resets the timer back to 2 hours.

Glimmer Acorn from Tree log, Plant in a log, and Old log. Max qty/9999.

Acer Sap (looks like a jar of preserves in Kitchen) from yellow acer trees.

Bitter beans (looks like a bowl of pomegranate seeds in kitchen) from defeating skunkupines.

Hey all!
Hopefully this helps.
Couldn?t SS the first, this is the second part of the goals.
Also included the pic of what the Soup Kitchen looks like when you first buy it.
The event is 14 days long and yes, it?s a community event, need to collect every 2hours. The picture shows the timer. 4 gems to speed up.

I kinda miss the times when it was chopping and collecting relentlessly in order to collect for prizes, instead of leveling a building to move ahead. 

Good luck all!

And the soup kitchen seems to have to be upgraded to a level 6 (vs level 10 usually), which is really really great news! Lots of diversity in collection points for different items, so not too repetitive; love it so far!

enaid03
11-16-17, 12:41 PM
The roasted nuts contain items Ivy's hut. First collection from Ivy's yielded one seasoning spice, and you need two to to upgrade the soup kitchen to level 2.

Needing to wait another 12 hours for a second seasoning spice I see this event being another nightmare. I hope not.

PrincessCupOButter
11-16-17, 12:42 PM
Don't forget the Objection Trees and Treeple! They drop the old log and plant in a log. That could help save a few coins.


The new things to cook do look interesting, but the amount of acorns alone means lots of energy and coins. Again. Almost dreading finding out what the soup kitchen upgrades will require. Sigh.


I am getting one hearty egg for every 6-7 chickens. Has anyone experienced a better drop rate? I don't think I'll get anywhere near the 9,999 limit at this rate. :rolleyes:

They did that a couple updates ago, right around the Halloween ones where you had to plant lots and lots of pumpkins.

netwiz3
11-16-17, 01:00 PM
And everything nicely documented already on the online help under the community event telling you where to get the various ingredients up front.

Also if not interested in individual prize of Alpaca all it takes to get the community prize(Soup Cauldron that drops food) is 63 tickets which would be doable even with a level 1 Soup Kitchen by simply checking at 2 hr intervals as often as is possible.

Very nice/easy event with variety. Since treeples dropped all the Plant in Logs and have Acers won't even have to buy stuff to chop.

Another nice thing is the garlic is only 35 minute collection and nets 150 coins... When paired with the boost this can give you 150 coins per plot every 18 minutes until you run out of energy. ;)

This has happened to me before when I have no energy and craft a boost. I've selected storage, thinking it would be stored, and later find that it's still 'waiting' to be collected, sometimes days later when I try to craft another boost. It instantly offers you the choice of activating or storing, but it does indeed remove an energy every time a boost is crafted. If no energy is available, the boost actually remains in there until you 'collect' it with an energy.

In the bottom right-hand corner of your screen do you have Edit/boost/marketplace? I always use the boost from the bottom right-hand corner and ignore the thing that requires energy. It became very annoying requiring the energy to look at your boost. . Also if you go into the market there is an option for your boost and for the rune market so you could try that also. FYI I am on iOS platform. Hope this helps you

You need to spawn the Troll Thieves from the farmhouses to get the blanket it drops. Needed to upgrade the Soup Kitchen.

BTW, you also need to spawn skunkupines to get the bitter beans for the craft in the kitchen.

No monsters from 15 chops on yellow acers. I only harvested 5 garlic without a monster parked and I didn't get any spawns. That would be awesome if the garlic and acers spawned the skunkupines needed for drops. It's such an energy intensive event without having to use energy on unneeded items just to spawn the skunkupines.

Here's another reminder of how to get "free" gems... For the tame the troll goal, DO NOT buy the troll trap but instead wait until you win the trap as a part of the individual prizes... Then later when you defeat enough trolls to craft it you will get the 20 gems without buying the trap.

Has somebody been on the adventure yet? What are the drops? Should we wait until we are requested to do so in the quest?

The adventure dropped garlic, hearty eggs, and acer sap. I waited until I got to the goal.

BTW, I have a gothic keep, so it's been fixed to include this adventure.

I am getting on average two acer saps per tree. Bad but at least predictable. But my acorn drop is terrible. Maybe 1 every third plant in a log or old log chopped. I tried a few tree logs but only got one acorn from three of those as well. Since the drop rate is the same and the cost is double for the tree logs I am sticking with the others. But I am severely strapped for coins because of the mermaid thread. I am not sure I will have enough money to buy as many logs as I need for this challenge. And with so many things to do, you can?t waste energy on coin collecting.

Wow! Impressive that you have your troll thief already. More questions if you don’t mind. What is the collection time? And can one craft a second one after the first or must it be done concurrently...

Just for info, I have found a couple of sparkle truffles chopping old logs, so they are not only from the 'plant in log's.

11-17-17, 07:36 AM
So the nuts not only take the longest to cook but need the seasonings from Ivy's, which is every 12 hours? Bad combination.

For those of you thinking of gem speeding Ivy's, the seasoning is only 20 gems to buy so unless you wait a couple of hours that may be your better choice.

Just a heads up for those who like to work ahead... You'll need wait to MAKE a portion of the items in the kitchen each day for it to count and go to the next goal... For instance You need to make 1 of each item after the goal comes up to complete it when on Chapter 6(upgrade to LVL 3) and MAKE 2 of each item on Chapter 7 when upgrading to LVL 4... You can have the rest of the items pre-made but still need to leave some items to craft each chapter.

11-17-17, 08:34 AM
Making the food items ahead doesn't auto complete the goals this time. However, making some ahead still saves time, since the goal I'm on now calls for making 1 of each, but the upgrade requires 3 of each.

Unfortunately, I can only make the feasts ahead, since I'm waiting on Ivy, and the mines, and non-existent skunkupines. :(
I realize some will say it's a matter of perception, but I sure wish these fangbeasts could find their way to my place during monster hunts. For hunts they disappear, but now, they're scaring away all the skunkupines and bandit trolls. Funny how that always seems to happen.

Oops, same info as above. :eek:

It's not a huge deal as you could easily just make another(and get further ahead) and just use the extra in the next round. It doesn't really impact the ability to level up and get more tickets and since our awesome Katt has already given us details of what's ahead you'll know it won't go to waste. :)

The craft remains after crafting one... No mention on a limit on his card in inventory. It says "A reformed Troll Thief! Visit him to see what items he found for you!". Collection time is 4 hours and speed up is 16 gems. Haven't collected from him yet so can't comment on the drops.

I had one seasoning spice last night. Just now I visited Ivy?s hut and did not get credit for a seasoning spice, however in my inventory the seasoning spice was listed as one of my last four items. Doesn?t that mean there was a recent addition of that item to my inventory? So shouldn?t I have 2 seasoning spices?

Chapter 3 only requests 1 Seasoning Spice to complete and you immediately use it to cook with... Did you already use the first one? You won't have 2 in inventory if you already used the first in the kitchen.

The pet troll thief dropped 3 waters. That's all. Usually the pets help with the event, but apparently not this time. I don't plan to craft any more of them. I stay maxed on water.

On a brighter note, the adventure dropped seasoning spice this morning. So we won't have to depend on Ivy.

I'm sure you aren't doing anything wrong. Those of us who are ahead generally use a few gems to get there. However, Ivy has been a guaranteed drop for the seasoning. I've sped up the Hut several times and always get the seasoning.

It's a refund on the gems you had to spend for the Troll Trap to complete this goal.
No reward, but nice to have them all back.
This type of goal is usually listed in events.. I assume it's a way to show players how and which traps to buy

Which is ridiculous because the event specifically states find them in the tree log. So whether we "know this" or not skunks should spawn consistently (not every chop but often) from that item.

Most players have limited energy and can't waste it all chasing skunks as other materials are needed also.

Otherwise this event has nice variety and as long as Ivy is a guaranteed drop, you should be able to miss a couple ivy collections and still get enough of her resource. The community requirements for decent prizes are reasonable also.

Please forgive me for being a party pooper, I love the idea of the soup kitchen event, but the prizes really dont impress me; a troll that drops water, a Roast that drops the same as a pig does, an Alpaca that drops wool I can get from a sheep or the stable, an expensive building only for deco...come on.
I will not write what I feel in fear of reprisal, like having my account deleted or something, but well, I feel robbed.

And like nateryd wrote, s8 need to work on their describtion s****s, I also thought the building would drop something and not just be a deco. There are also a lot of questionmarks in the describtion of the prices, as to what they drop. Like the Soup Cauldron, there's a q.mark on drop even though the type is deco. Does that mean it might drop something usefull some day, the developers just haven't thought of yet?

I will not spend time/energy/..... on poor prices, but if they were attractive, I would even consider spending real money to get there.

I am new to the game and I really like CS, the grafics are beautiful, the characters cute, the developers are creative, so THANK YOU for a wonderfull game.
BUT; be specific, describe the prizes in your update threads, so there can be no confusion of what they are, and not just your fine describtions on how to get the prizes.

Hi CS Folks!

First a BIG thank you to our Moderator and all the players who post tips. Luv you!

Observations I?d like to share:

1). The new Adventure- Help at soup kitchen didn?t impress me with what was dropped. I know it is random. I got acer sap, hearty eggs, glimmer eggs. 1-2 of each.

2). The yield of chopping of the various logs to get random drops acorns is too low, I know that?s how these events run. However, people need to purchase the logs and the cost adds up.

3). The yield of chopping the tree log to get random drops of truffle is dismal.

I don?t mind spending coins and using energy. I?m a long-time player, I just think that the game designers need to improve drop rates for all these community events because people miss out because they are busy and don?t have the time.

Thanks for listening!

Happy Chopping!

I am new to the game and I really like CS, the grafics are beautiful, the characters cute, the developers are creative, so THANK YOU for a wonderfull game.
BUT; be specific, describe the prizes in your update threads, so there can be no confusion of what they are, and not just your fine describtions on how to get the prizes.

Will the developers see this or should I write it in another sub forum? Namaste, TheRuneRealm ...
(extract of your post)
Thanks for the feedback; it's ok, your post will be seen. I'm an advocate for better descriptions too! However, I do my best to include as much information as possible in the fastest time to help out the community - but it has to be posted by someone (sometimes me). It's the next best thing I hope! :) cheers.... SW

Haven't really kept up with what does and doesn't have drops. Deco seldom gets house room in my Kingdom, but I like the idea of the soup kitchen. It goes well with the food shelter from a previous event.

My problem is that I've seen precisely 3 skunks since the event began. I'm over stocked now with tomatoes and wheat, and have chopped so many acers and logs I am well supplied with jam and acorns. I refuse to waste gems on skunk traps.

I was planning to do the 'unlimited energy' thing as I have a little Google credit, but it seems a waste if I can't get the skunks, and that pack doesn't contain the bitter nuts.

Should I give up?

Too early to give up, there are plenty of days left :)

My kingdom is also suddenly infected with the fangbeasts who fled during the monster hunt, while the skunks are now hiding. And the mines didn't drop this morning. But in the end it will probably be Ivy's hut holding me back.

I suggest waiting with unlimited energy for now, until you know it will help you onward

I wouldn't give up this early in the event. If you stocked up on acorns, did you also get several sparkle truffles from the logs? If so, you'll be able to go on the adventure. The adventure also can drop the bitter beans that you need from the skunks. So it's another source. It can also drop the donation boxes and seasoning. I've been sending the adventure every 4 hrs. and it's extremely helpful.

Also, the monsters cycle around. I was inundated with skunks this morning then they slowed down this evening. So there's a good chance your skunk luck will improve.

Good luck, whatever you decide.

I have 5 of the truffles, so presumably could do an adventure. But this thread isn't encouraging for the drops. I gather it requires gold, which is off putting. The skunks just seem to have gone elsewhere. My head says it's too soon to quit, but my heart says so much in my Kingdom is losing out while I waste energy chasing beasties. I'll keep going for now but it's depressing.

100 meal tickets for a chapter prize... dang. I question my memory, even though I play daily and every event, but I have a brain stem abnormality so I forget extremely easily (even info I heard seconds or minutes before sometimes) So I never really know if I am remembering right or not. But we dont usually get tickets at the end of goals do we? I think once we maybe got 1 whole ticket as the final prize for completing ALL the goals. (It is always super random the things I remember!) thats how shocking that 1 ticket was! It stuck with me that hard. Lol


I am really liking this event. Yes there are some things in each kingdom that are harder: for example, I have found 2 skunks this entire time, my acorn drops are lower than most, not horrible though and my mines have never dropped a collection box every collection. Each time I am lucky if 1 mine drops one. But Im not complaining about it just giving an example. This is the best event we have had in a long time. Yes we might not love that the troll only gives water but they didnt even need to give us the option to tame the troll and then if it didnt drop anything people would have said (because I remember specifically this from the past) people saying, ?it cant drop anything? Id be fine with even just water. Thats better than nothing.? So they probably thought they were doing good by you. Making sure you ALWAYS are able to tame every single creature for all the completionists and then having it drop something.

I dont know about you but I feel like if each of our kingdoms didnt have a little rough spot it would be way too easy.. (Im not talking about all events here in the past they have been completely unfair and awful) but sometimes that arent that bad. I feel like people complain too quickly. If all of these complaints were truly gone.., would you really want to play a game with no challenge?

Now the prizes, they have is Autumn decos which were asked for quite a bit in the forum vote BUT even BETTER! they gave us a building that drops food items!! Usually this type of building would be the last individual prize of an extremely hard challenge and a lot of us would not get it. Getting even better, they made it the last COMMUNITY PRIZE, so we can all have an even better chance of getting this new building that drops food items. This has been asked for for a LONG time on the forums. I feel terrible for the devs who think they gave us this great thanksgiving challenge with the opportunity to earn these great prizes way easier than usual and everyone is complaining and wanting to quit already. Did you see how many free meal tickets they are giving us just by finishing the goals? I believe 190?

This whole post is good spirited. Im just trying to get everyone to look at this from a different perspective. If you dont like the individual prizes, maybe dont give up, maybe take an idea from the soup kitchen theme and help your fellow players earn the community rewards. We should all be able to earn all of those without doing much.

Lets be thankful for this one. I really think they tried here.

I respect and have love for all of you💚

I really hate that the make goals don't autocomplete on this one. Now that the requirements are going up I guess I will stop cooking stuff and just stock up. Any chance one of our math whizzes out there has done the calculations on how many of each item we need. This tedious event coupled with the elves asking for mermaid items and tanking my ability to do elven trades has really put me in a bad mood.

The barometric pressure is messing with my head but I don't get the math concerning acorns. The chart indicates we need 60 for level 3, but we just need 3 roasted nut recipes to upgrade. I come up with 15 acorns needed to cook 3 recipes. Where am I going wrong? I know it's probably something right in front of me that I'm not seeing.

Edit: never mind it's the other recipes required too. I knew it was something stupid!

Well I'm still going to blame it on the weather front moving in. Hah!
Btw I got a total of 63 needed.

Id be fine with even just water. Thats better than nothing.?

Now the prizes, .... they gave us a building that drops food items!!
I really think they tried here.

I respect and have love for all of you��


Im certainly not just fine with water, when I have it already. If I am going to use energy/time and maybe even money on something, i'd like to get my money's worth and receive attractive prizes, that gives something new or more to the game. The Roast could fx give 3 bacon insted of 1 as the pig, so it makes it more attractable to achieve- It is human nature to want to achieve something extraordinary, if you're going to invest a lot of effort into the mission.

You mention a community prize building that gives food, no such thing – the Soup Couldron is described as deco only. The individual prize the Hearty Stand is deco as well.

This is why I have stopped crafting in the event. I wish I had read up on all of it before I even began, but now im on lev.3 in the Soup Kithen, because I went ahead in the naive beleif, that ofcurse it would be worth my effort, untill I read up on SpiritWind's fine text material. Now im done with crafting, and the tickets i chose to collect will make me a cute deco from one or more of the prizes, but these are not prices I will work for, since they are deco only/function with drops of stuff we already have.

By the way SpiritWind00; all this text material, I assume you get the information from the developers and pass on to us, which is awesome, thanks? Don't you earn anything at all on that or is it just your personal interest?
Anyway the developers needs to pass on the message about what all new gadgets does in their game, how else can they expect gamers to go for the prizes? Guess I'm used to a bit more...big Skyrim player fx, and this little cute game certainly has lower standards :-) but I used money on it, because gaming, even cute little (compared to what else I play fx Skyrim) games like these amuses me and I like to try them out. That and I work with children and youngsters, and takes an interest in what they play, so I thought it would be a good investment.....but I can see it is perfectly possible to play the game without gem/real money purchase, it will just take a little longer time and effort, and this is the message I will pass on to ”my” kids, so long as the prices are, well, what the are :-)

I hope you all (at least S8) realize this is not a sour hickup, this is constructive criticism; pump it up a bit and S8 will have even more and happyer gamers, instead of losing some on the way, because they see through the quality of the prices. Better prices = better chance for possible real money purchase, just saying. I really think they tried too, I just want them to try better with some constructive criticism ;-)

This is correct. We get only 2 collections per day from Ivy's Hut, which is the only place that drops the Spice.
Players who have got more is because they're willing to speed, or partially speed, the collection time of Ivy's Hut with gems, or buy with gems the Spice in the Kitchen.
Unfortunately it's a holdup for all players.

editing to add:
also the Soup Kitchen Adventure from the castle has a chance of delivering Spice.

The adventure definitely can drop spice. I've gotten it at least 5 times. It has a chance to drop everything related to upgrading the Soup Kitchen. Also, according to the text about the Soup Cauldron, it drops food items. So doesn't sound like deco only.

evidently, read nateryd's entry on page 7 in this tread - Hearty Stand deco only.
And if you read SpiritWind00's description of the Soup Couldron on page 1 its type deco.
So if the things will give food drops on a later occasion, there is yet no information thereof...

I think many items are classified as deco even though they also have drops. We just don't know what it will drop until the event is over. The info from S8 states that the Soup Cauldron drops food items.

There's never been any dispute about the Hearty Stand. It definitely does not have drops.

I think you are correct, we have never gotten so many of the items as a reward for doing the upgrades. I like this change. More players can get the individual prizes this way.

According to the info provided by S8 about the final community prize, the Soup Cauldron, drops food items. Whether this is during the event or after the event. Who knows.

I wouldn't give up this early in the event. If you stocked up on acorns, did you also get several sparkle truffles from the logs? If so, you'll be able to go on the adventure. The adventure also can drop the bitter beans that you need from the skunks. So it's another source. It can also drop the donation boxes and seasoning. I've been sending the adventure every 4 hrs. and it's extremely helpful.

Also, the monsters cycle around. I was inundated with skunks this morning then they slowed down this evening. So there's a good chance your skunk luck will improve.

Good luck, whatever you decide.

Unfortunately my sparkle truffles are few and far between. Been lucky to send one adventure so far. I will just keep plugging along.

How do you post a photo? Sorry I?ve never done it and it doesn?t have an ?add picture? button or anything. I?m on a iPhone if that helps or makes a difference.

off topic! hoping your device is like mine:

after tapping 'reply with quote' or 'reply' you'll see choices in the upper part of your post.
tap the symbol that looks like a frame with a tree.
after another frame will appear that's connected to your iPhone's album.
follow the instructions.

better first to modify picture in your album ready to add to post.
choose picture.. load file (takes awhile to load)
after you'll see a code in your post, when posted it'll be the picture.

only 5 pictures allowed in a post.
after each add you have to save your post by posting, before adding the next
then 'edit' your post if you wish to add another, otherwise everything gets complicated.

This may be just coincidence but I've gotten a couple of Skunkupine to spawn by using the last two or three energy on old logs. I have to wait on energy to fight, but at least I got one to spawn. I'm going to test it out further and see if this is a trend.

If you go to the ? In the community event icon it also says the soup cauldron has a chance ( emphasis on the word chance :) ) to
drop food items. But yes, it is not clear if this continues after the event. I would expect it would but will wait and see.


I cannot push on the ? mark - since the soup is not yet unlocked for me, so I cant see it and on page 1 in this thread Theres a ?mark on drop

I know it?s off topic. I was trying to post a picture from this event though, does that help my cause at all? Lol

I was expecting it to work exactly as you explained, however, there are definitely no symbols for me. Even if I reply at the bottom with the Reply To Thread option. I will solve it one day I guess. I probably have to upload it to a site like photobucket to get a link to paste into the body of the comment.

Thanks for your help though!

P.S. Do the apostrophes turning into question marks bother anyone else? I have had to write without them and that is a pet peeve for me. (Improper use of grammar) I don?t know why some phones do it and others don?t. It?s been driving me crazy. :)

I remembered Androids are not able to read this part of the Community Instructions so posted for you.

The pictures in the above quote show the info from the "?" on the community event screen. The question mark is not on the cauldron. It is in the top right corner above the individual prizes.

The info provided by S8 says the soup cauldron "has a chance to drop food items". (See photo above.)

As with all community events, actual drops are generally not known until the event ends. This is why Shibuyacloth places question marks on the unknowns next to the pictures. The information and photos posted early in these threads is from players who are generously compiling information as it is obtained, giving the rest of us helpful guidelines and hints. They (players) cannot confirm drops from an item that no one has acquired yet.

You mention a community prize building that gives food, no such thing ? the Soup Couldron is described as deco only. The individual prize the Hearty Stand is deco as well.

This is why I have stopped crafting in the event. I wish I had read up on all of it before I even began, but now im on lev.3 in the Soup Kithen, because I went ahead in the naive beleif, that ofcurse it would be worth my effort, untill I read up on SpiritWind's fine text material. Now im done with crafting, and the tickets i chose to collect will make me a cute deco from one or more of the prizes, but these are not prices I will work for, since they are deco only/function with drops of stuff we already have.

TheRuneRealm

The description as a decoration simply means that if you store it, you will find it under the decoration tab as opposed to another tab. Some decorations, like flowers and animals, drop items. Some decorations, like walls and paths, don't. So just because something is classed as a decoration, it doesn't automatically mean that it won't have a drop.

Yes you can buy them as many times as you want within the time frame they are available. Just remember that your 15 minutes begins as soon as your purchase is complete.

Am I correct that once you have reached level 5 of the soup kitchen none of the remaining goals require you to MAKE the feasts, nuts or skunkucopias so we can go ahead and start making all 8 of those ahead of time while we wait for our spices to drop?

This is so important!!! You have to have pre-purchased everything you want to chop, make sure everything is ready to collect, etc... Or it can waste a bunch of time. One thing I noted, if you have something with a short timer, like growing trees or the like, you might want to do those first because with 15 minutes you could actually do it twice. Just a thought. ❤️

These posts have the answer.. there are some meals we have to craft at that moment.. so don't craft them all.

post #82

Just a heads up for those who like to work ahead... You'll need wait to MAKE a portion of the items in the kitchen each day for it to count and go to the next goal... For instance You need to make 1 of each item after the goal comes up to complete it when on Chapter 6(upgrade to LVL 3) and MAKE 2 of each item on Chapter 7 when upgrading to LVL 4... You can have the rest of the items pre-made but still need to leave some items to craft each chapter.


It's not a huge deal as you could easily just make another(and get further ahead) and just use the extra in the next round. It doesn't really impact the ability to level up and get more tickets and since our awesome Katt has already given us details of what's ahead you'll know it won't go to waste. :)


post #83

Making the food items ahead doesn't auto complete the goals this time. However, making some ahead still saves time, since the goal I'm on now calls for making 1 of each, but the upgrade requires 3 of each.
Unfortunately, I can only make the feasts ahead, since I'm waiting on Ivy, and the mines, and non-existent skunkupines. :(
I realize some will say it's a matter of perception, but I sure wish these fangbeasts could find their way to my place during monster hunts. For hunts they disappear, but now, they're scaring away all the skunkupines and bandit trolls. Funny how that always seems to happen.
Oops, same info as above. :eek:

I don't think you have any goals to cook any items as part of the story line after you level up the soup kitchen to level 5. So you can make all of the 8 of each item required for level 6 ahead of time. Unless I am mistaken. Otherwise I think that he is totally correct. So you can always be 8 ahead of whatever you need and still be fine goal wise.

You know how when you are playing your normal game and you just want to do one last collection? You or at least I do always seem to get a beast. That has been my strategy for getting Skunkupines. I've gotten quite a few to spawn this way. I sometimes leave just 1 or 2 chops on a log and when I'm down to my last chop I chop a log. Could be coincidence or I might just be in a stage of spawning, but I'm getting some to spawn. Who knows for sure though? Luck? IDK.

The goals stated in the goalbook have to be crafted only when you're doing that particular level.. otherwise they won't tick off even if you have what's needed in the inventory.
Whatever meals crafted for the goalbook steps are valid for the upgrading in the Soup Kitchen.
All materials can be collected beforehand.. specially the Acorns, hoping to find Truffles for the adventure.

Players that are on the lower levels of the Soup Kitchen can safely craft 8 extra of everything needed for the upgrade. If you do this, you'll have everything needed to immediately upgrade to level 6. I wish I had done this. Of course you won't be able to do this with the roasted nuts because of waiting on Ivy or the adventure. But the feasts and skunkucopias can be done early.

Yeah, it’s always when you need a monster for a goal that they suddenly stop spawning. I used to spawn them all the time, but have gotten exactly two during this event. Makes it pretty hard to complete these goals...

Can someone help? Since the event started I've spawned 3 skunkupines. Two from traps and one from farming. Since then, I've been having extrem difficulty. No spawn from farming, logs, flowers or any of the other areas for that matter. I'm at a complete loss of what to do. I doubt I'd be able to complete the goal without them and my golden nuggets aren't that hight in order for me to pray for something from the adventure.

The rest of the goal is fun, I just wanna know how I should get a skunk to spawn. I've also tried spending the last enegry for a beast. Going up early in the morning, ect. It just won't spawn

I’m here for the “Power of the Post” because....you guessed it, like everyone else those skunkies �� are hiding from me. If I could have just gotten ONE last night after about 100 energy I would have gone to bed level three, but I’m still level 2. So far about 400 energy today all but 50 used on places where skunkupine spawn, the last 40 for example, specifically only tree logs as that is where the game said to look (did this twice), however I have also tried EVERYTHING ELSE: dead logs and log in a tree, corn, tomatoes, flowers, shrubs, the acre tree, pepe, chicken (couldn’t remember if they were a source but did a few for game drops anyway). I will be doing wheat next and sugar & fellora I will plant overnight, keeping the day for skunkupine crops only and a row for garlic. The two dogs I don’t have. I don’t think I’ve missed anything...

My sister and I are collecting and I’m saying how I am struggling to get them, she goes -oh I get them non stop, look here is one!- Three taps later -oh another- 2 hours later next round -got another!-.... yeah she is rubbing it in at me lol.

Only good thing is some of drops are dropping extras of other supplies so once I get it I?m ready, probably to make two. I did get some beans as I need just one more. I went on one adventure so far and one had come from there. I do have enough sparkle truffle for a second adventure and leftovers. So far I don?t see any other need for it or reason to save it? I cannot go to bed tonight until I get a skunkupine. Although my fangbeasts have no problem showing up...I think they may have eaten my skunkies!!!!! But by the end of the day I will have used about 500 energy. That’s a pretty decent day for me considering I didn?t really have much going on, and I refuse to believe by the end, while clicking areas specifically for something that I am unable to get one skunkupine, so I will keep going and I hope the longer the thread the more you get from forum prayers! Wishing every one else luck too since I see so many posts about this difficulty. I am not asking for a crazy amount, but a measly 2 a day even would be nice.

Let’s see if this adventure helps.

Otherwise, aside from the same complaint of every event like this, the inequality brought on by random drops, I think this has the potential to be the best community event yet made. I love that we have so many different places to look, different ingredients to make and 3 recipes. Better than the same one thing all 2 weeks. Let?s see where I stand in a week lol

*Thank you to the power of the post! 30 energy later and I got one, phew! Almost 500 energy for one? I really need the spawn rate to increase...

**And now I got 3 more with 20 energy with old logs. I should have come here earlier today to beg for them lol

Cracking up at this!!!;) now I?ve got 2 and still nothing but water... (shrug) at least they look good guarding Kaz?s Abode... I?m done with this event. Just saving energy before I begin Of Land and Sea. And just have to wait on the seasoning things from Ivy?s to craft the roasted nuts, because I refuse to use any more than 4 golden nuggets or any gems whatsoever on this event. I enjoyed it though. Can?t wait to receive the rest of the prizes. But thieving Trolls should drop something at least like jewels, silver, swords, and suits of armor. At least they weren?t as hard to get as the Ghost Knight.
