Please stay on topic. All non-related event posts will be removed.



The following notes have been consistent since season 1.

* Get rid of any monsters on your board. You can tell if you have one you can't see because of the music.

* DON'T tap the troll pit. The following do not drop tokens - trolls, pink skunkupine, pink alicorn, wedding alicorn, gem horses.

* Monsters also drop their normal items in addition to the tokens.

* Do the Bronze Hunter Trade if you are nearly maxed on Shield tokens so that they don't go to waste.

* A Level 5 Jousting Arena will spawn a monster on every collection. Link to Jousting Arena Renovations (https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?83751-Castle-Story-08-06-Update-Jousting-Arena-Renovations-(levels-4-amp-5)) thread.

* The Mythic Research Center is a new long-term goal, meaning it will be around past the current season. All crafts within the MRC are available to craft anytime if you have the tokens.

* The new trades will appear after you do 1 of any trade in the Trade Wagon.

That's nothing leader of my group has over 1,300 😂 No Ali herd either.

Ouch! That's what I call dedication! Personally, I'm in it for the tokens and each Hunt I try to beat my previous total of Gold Tokens so I basically play my own game during these LB events. It's just what I've found that works for my own enjoyment since I'm not a fan of competing against other players.

As for the new animals, I'm excited to see what all the Armored Shadow Wolf drops. I've got one crafting now but who knows how long the timer will be. LOVING the look of these purple and black wolves though, so I'm going for broke on this one and craft my little heart out. But I do really worry about where in the world I'm going to place these ones. I've got more than enough energy stored that I'll be able to meet my own goals and have fun doing it.

Hope everyone gets what they want out of this Hunt and enjoys themselves!

Also, I've lost a bit of my initial happiness for this event since learning that it's just the ASWs we can craft. When this Hunt first started I was stoked thinking that I could craft Dark Wolves in the Trade Wagon like we usually can. Sigh. I guess I'll just have to finally craft those Dark Unicorns from last time and my last WP upgrade after getting my last two Armored Shadow Wolves.



S8, please think about what we're meant to do during these hunts if you continue to not have a limited Trade Wagon animal! This earning one of the limited monster during a Hunt (two for the handful that win the LB) is the pits! Under the old format, where I could craft as many pets as I liked within the time limit, I was constantly on my game slaying animals to reach my desired amount. Now I've got no reason to log in after I craft the four animals in the MRC, as I've finished the LB Milestone Prizes during that period of time also. I get that some players keep logging in for the LB but what about those of us who are in it for the Hunt? Seems like not having the pet in the Trade Wagon is making losers of us all s8.

Maybe I am just unlucky but I keep being put into LB groups with players with a heard of Alis. I consider myself an advanced player with about 30 Alis and 30 odd daily Alis but not even I have a chance in my groups. I suppose the upside is that I don?t have to bother trying - I will just go for the final goal prize and cruise for the rest of the event. Do we even know what the top prize drops????

Tricky. Once you start to build it you won't be able to use your trade wagon until the MRC is completed. I think what I did was I waited until I needed time to build up an inventory of different tokens without the possibility of maxing out on any one of them. Then I started constructing the MRC. I think I did it in the evening as well. That way I didn't need to use my trade wagon at all during the construction time.

So sorry you sold your dragon, maybe support can return it for you.

I had problems trying to place the armored dark wolf also. I had a place for it and tried three times to place it there and it would disappear and go back to the MRC. I then tried an open place near the MRC and it placed and then I was able to put it where I wanted. I don’t know if rotating it the first three times to fit it in a 2 square place next to my direwolf made any difference. I didn’t rotate it the last time when it finally placed.

My basic goal is to craft my 4th armored alicorn and then go for as many tokens as I can. I?m between the purple alicorn and the new dark wolf if he drops permits.

Yay😁 a worthwhile event! Love monster hunts, actually worth the energy suck for monsters that will drop rare items. I never get anywhere with the leader boards either even going full out, better to concentrate on enough points to get the event monster & earn gold coins. Don?t bother wasting gold coins on the golden peacock, gold drops are very very rare. The flygers were great to begin with but I haven?t had an expansion permit in ages. If you haven?t read the full monster hunt guide do it now, I had no idea about the fountain or statues before. Thank god for the forum, wish I?d started reading it sooner would have avoided mistakes.

It appears the one-per-day limit has been removed on Purple Glimmer Golems, too. (The one-per-day limit was removed on Blue Dire Boars in a previous Monster Hunt.)

If you are doing the "Of Land And Sea" goal, I suggest chopping Grand Rooted Liliums. I've been getting both Fauns and Wisps with just a couple of chops, and both of them drop plenty of tokens, as well as the Wisp Essence and Seals of the Faun that you need for various crafts in that goal. Outside of a Monster Hunt, both of them use a lot of energy for the little you get.

Fangbeasts I've seen collecting from the cows, not many but they're there between the Dark Wolves.
It's however not necessary to complete those side goals.. I would suggest to use the energy instead on fighting another monster. Your returns would however be better than what the Fangbeast goal would give. The goal will expire itself.. then next day offering another.
Happy Hunting!

Blue direboars spawn on every chop of a dead tree. Purple glimmer golems spawn on every horse. No limit per day.

I still can't find fangbeasts at all so, as usual, I'm leaving that side goal unfinished. I'm getting all my sword tokens from the spawned wolf. Nice, since I never seem to be behind on those now.

For me, blue boars are the best source for staff tokens. It takes on an average 17 energies to **** a boar for me (after taking into account energies given back) which drops 8-14 staff tokens. A glimmer golem takes about 34 energies to **** and drops 12 - 20 staff tokens..

I just checked the list of drops for the Armored Shadow Wolf. My first collection included jewels, water, and a black flag for fur, none are on the list. I didn’t catch the amounts but it was multiple for the jewels. I’m very disappointed that a item with a 22 hour reset should have such paltry drops. The Trade Shack at Level 10 does much better. I’ve gotten gold nuggets from it recently.

ARGH!!! My finger got bumped while closing the fangbeast challenge and 100 gems gone! POOF! No one would ever waste 100 gems to skip a useless task to begin with! Why would that button even be there?! What robbery. I am so incensed ATM I just want to quit the game now. I just bought them, too. Whimper, whimper.

Ugh - first drop from my Armoured Shadow Wolf - skunkupie, water and fish. And it's a big thing out of proportion with the rest of the board too. Heading for storage if drops don't improve

And clicking away on the monsters I also fell into a gem trap like Dquennie above - didn't lose as many gems but must remember to be more careful.

There will never be a confirmation button, because the gem traps are deliberate...notice how your screen shifts when you tap something that still has a timer running, as opposed to anything that is ready for collection where the screen doesn’t move.

I know people are disappointed with the drops from the ASW, but from what people are listing, I'm satisfied. So many of the things with an occasional trade ticket or permit drop nothing but stuff that is useless to me in between those occasional items. But I can use fruit pies and lemonade for trades. I can cook strawberries into sweet feasts (Aanpa is my only other person to drop them). I can trade the naga bits and pieces.

More fur, skins and tails would be wasted for me as l oi ads of thingsdrol those, but judging from the reports, the ASW will earn it's two squares and 1 energy per day. The standard SW maybe not so much.

This feature is called: "User Experience"! It helps you "properly" use your resources in order to advance your game more smoothly. A monster hunt / leader board are the events where I most likely use this feature and spend 20 gems for 12 energy :rolleyes:

For me, blue boars are the best source for staff tokens. It takes on an average 17 energies to **** a boar for me (after taking into account energies given back) which drops 8-14 staff tokens. A glimmer golem takes about 34 energies to **** and drops 12 - 20 staff tokens..

The glimmer golem will give more shields, which with 1 energy can be traded into more staff and sword tokens. So all in all, what will ultimately yield most troll tokens per energy: Blue boar or Purple glimmer golem?

It takes about the same amount of energy to defeat three Blue Dire Boars as it does a single Glimmer Golem, and both of them drop a single shield token for every hit they take. However, three defeated Blue Dire Boars generally drop more tokens in total compared to a single Glimmer Golem; at least that is what I have experienced, which is why I was glad that they took away the limit on the number of Blue Dire Boars spawning (I just found out this season though :( )

Lol. You might be surprised to know that similar advice was given a few years back by a Staff moderator when players made purchases with which they were dissatisfied. I may have been one of those players who got full refunds of gems spent on something with which I was not satisfied. Perhaps the policy has changed...or perhaps it remains the same. Something about the wording though...has to be specific to items purchased.

Yep! I haven’t heard of them making refunds for accidents though and unfortunately, I happen to see their point, though not necessarily agree with it. If they made one refund for a single accident, they’d be inundated with requests for more; and then there’s the issue of sifting out the genuine accidents from those “accidents” resulting from buyers’ remorse :(

Right...hence the specific phrasing of your request. Spending gems are purchases. People don't normally accidentally buy something, but if you do it is still a purchase which may be returned and a refund requested.

My energy per golem and boar is not quite the same:

For every 2 golems, I could defeat 3 blue Dire boars, so the added bronze trade rewards (tokens, gems, energy rewards) is worth concentrating on golems.

You should spend a day comparing. Golems for me take between 40 and 50 hits returning a minimum of 15 energy, while blue Dire boars are typically 22-25 hits returning maybe 5 energy.

I basically play my own game during these LB events. It's just what I've found that works for my own enjoyment since I'm not a fan of competing against other players. This is what I do. I don't worry about LB prizes - just enjoy what I'm getting and don't worry about the person who is number 1.


So, I have enough Gold tokens to build the Mythic Research Centre. I did not know whether to build it or wait for a few more tokens. I presume that I should build the MRC first. I made the mistake of buying the MRC as my first Trade Wagon purchase. Unfortunately, making monsters requires tokens! So I made one and ran out, lol. As a new player without many food droppers (sugar, etc) the Cooking Camp might help me make sweet feasts faster: it takes 42 kitchen crafts to make them! Bobbyrae made an important point:

Once you start to build it you won't be able to use your trade wagon until the MRC is completed. I think what I did was I waited until I needed time to build up an inventory of different tokens without the possibility of maxing out on any one of them. Then I started constructing the MRC. I think I did it in the evening as well. That way I didn't need to use my trade wagon at all during the construction time. Crafting a building takes 16 hours I think. At 99 troll tokens I will be maxed so there's no point waiting until after the hunt to craft the camp. The MRC needs only 70 tokens, so don't bother to tie up your wagon making it unless you are maxed at 99.


HHey! First post in the forum! Welcome to the forum!


Don't bbother wasting gold coins on the golden peacock, gold drops are very very rare. My very advanced neighbor moves them every time she gets a gold drop - she swears it improves frequency.


blue boars are the best source for staff tokens.

three defeated Blue Dire Boars generally drop more tokens in total compared to a single Glimmer Golem
Now that blue boars are unlimited (S8 changed this in Hunt 13 during a fix for certain people getting zero spawns) they are ideal. And for the first time I can do silver trades to use up excess tokens!

I get 7-8 2-hits while ****ing a Dire Boar using the middle or right attack style; the left does not work as well. I don't keep track of energy payback. As we know, Golems give 3-hits as well as 2-hits, rarely a 1-hit. The energy spent "feels" even (3 boars per golem) but I may be mistaken, lol.

I've done the comparison over a number of days (since I accidentally spawned a second Blue Dire Boar); because of a small herd of daily Alicorns, I usually have 250 to 350 points of extra energy a day to chop up a number of each of them. The energy required to subdue the boars and golems and the return I get from them averaged out to be roughly the same, so I've come to the conclusion that there isn't any formula to it but that it all boils down to luck. The total number of each type of token received is another matter.

I did a limited study of golems vs blue dire boars.
Two golems took 42 and 44 hits ( same # of shields) both returned 10 energy. Sword tokens 9 & 8. Staff tokens 15 & 14.
Four boars took 26, 23, 22, 24 hits, energy return 10, 12, 7, 8 respectively. Sword tokens 6, 6, 7, 8. Staff tokens 11, 11, 12, 9

It is a limited sample but enough to show a better rate of return for the sword and staff tokens for energy expended.

I know what you mean about being cash-strapped after each expansion, but I find that planting and harvesting a field or two of Tideblooms or Fellora Plants to be quite therapeutic to my vaults.

If you do the Elven Outpost rune exchanges regularly, you will find yourself with more Bronze Runes than you can use. I convert them to "Nimble Farmer" boosts, which reduces the growing time of my crops and allow for earlier harvests. With the application of three of these boosts, I'm harvesting Tideblooms in just about 1/2 a day.

I just noticed that there is a value pack waving at me that consists of 15 minutes of unlimited energy, 700 LB Points, 3 Shields, 2 Helmets, and a Sword.

Does that mean that I can buy my way into first place if I were desperate to get the "shiny Gold Banner"? It does not look like a single purchase value pack but, I find myself wondering if there are players that would fork out $14.99 for the few items. I know a lot can be done to leap ahead with 15 minutes of infinite energy and a small handful of gems, but $14.99 is still a princely sum to fork out.

700 Points are peanuts compared to the top of the ladder in my group. This won't ensure you are number 1 in 3 days. If you do, anyone else can do it. It will just close the gap, eventually widen it.

I'm sure it's been done (continuously buying packets) since I've seen players with no Ali herd rack up 3, 4, & 5,000 points over the course of a day or so. So, you know they're buying energy packs & boosters with gems to move that quickly.

I suppose if you buy several value packs while you have a one-hour booster going, it might gain you some ground... but way too rich for my blood, especially for a grand prize of unknown use or value.

Even when you know what you are getting, it still doesn't always make financial sense. During the last MH, the grand prize was the equivalent of a weekly alicorn, available in the market for 600 gems... I wonder how many spent well more than that, to be number one or two?

This is one reason I check what herds people have and then always come to the conclusion, I can never truly compete. I’m currently in the lead in my group, I seem to be in a group which is moving slowly, but when I last checked I had the biggest herd, and funnily enough 8 more people have joined our group since then. But in every event I’ve been in since the beginning, there have always been those that have jumped higher places in the last few hours, when guess what, I’m asleep. So whilst I have tried to build a team and get my fellow leaderboard players to go for joint places, it’s never worked and I’ve either got 2nd place (the second time an LB event took place it finished at my 10pm,) or most lately somewhere between 3rd and 7th.

I could buy pack after pack but whilst the event ends while I’m asleep, it’s absolutely pointless.

I've been sitting comfortably in second place throughout the event so will probably end in 10th at the last minute.

Been building up my gold tokens but have no idea what to do with them now (currently at 48). Should I save for the cooking camp or wizard's portal? Will they really be helpful? I have the cabbage hut, armored lion, two armored flygers, a golden peacock, and a unicorn. Cat and horse related animals are my favorites! I'm usually in pretty good shape with most normal castle resources and have been stocking up on expansion permits, afraid to expand in case they run another long term quests involving expansion.

I'm basically a hoarder so probably will end up just carrying them over to the next hunt.

I'm basically a hoarder so probably will end up just carrying them over to the next hunt.


I saved for the wizard portal but first got 1 unicorn. I am finding myself getting a lot of gold coins now so I would get one unicorn then wizard portal. I did collect enough for cooking camp but decided to get other stuff as I have the sweet bakery and right now I need energy. I might get a second lion too because he gives expansions...like you i am afraid to expand! Lol...

Also it takes a lot to power up wizard portal so yes i get 4 energy every 5 hours to start and eventually more but i have other quests so leveling up will be put aside for a while.

Trade Tickets, not Expansion Permits. I always mix up the two of them too. I just know that once I finally get them sorted out, I'll mix them up with the Explorer Permit :(

I got strawberries and something else trivial. This is prolly gonna end up like the dark unicorn that was a prize a while back. It was supposed to drop trade tickets and it did for the first week or 2. Last month plus of collection just standard horse drops.

I am not familiar with the Trade Shack. In which event it was available?

Trade shack is available if you use crowns in the town square and buy the trader. Then you have to level it up

Now we have Dark Wolves, Armoured Shadow Wolves(which I agree they should be called Armoured Dark Wolves, and then a Shadow Wolf, not sure where they're supposed to come from. I'll have to go look around for those now. And I've got some other Wolves here and there too. Wonderful!
And we have Dark Unicorn , I cant remember where I got it. That's the one that drops trade tickets. and an Armoured Dark Unicorn that can be made in the MRC. Good grief.

I decided to get all 4 unicorns first. The extra tokens you receive everyday (outside of monster hunts) help tremendously.

I also have 2 armored Flyger, I am going to wait on making more because the expansion permit chance is low.

Here is what I'm considering: (listing important drops, each drops other things too)
Armored lion: trade ticket, mithril
Armored direwolf: 20-60 energy every 5 days
Armored alicorn: energy, mithril
Glimmer Alicorn: energy
Armored Flyger: expansion permit, mithril

Spirit wind has a link to the Mythic Research Center info on the first page. It's very helpful when trying decide what to make.

My opinion Regarding wizard portal or unicorns:
4 unicorns require about the same number of gold tokens as a level 1 wizard portal so 4 unicorns are actually better because there is a chance for 20+ energy AND the extra tokens everyday. It takes 175 troll tokens to build and completely upgrade the wizard portal to get 8 energy every 5 hours.

riverly
11-20-18, 09:55 AM
I would definitely go with the unicorns too. Energy drops plus tokens, and a gold token occasionally. They are part of my daily collection for sure.

I haven't heard too much about the Armoured Dark Unicorn. Their drops didn't sound too good for what I'm needing right now. So I don't have even one yet.

Ok more experienced players, I have cabbage hut, 4 unicorns, 4 armored alicorns. 3 armored flygers. Should I craft the armored lion or the last flyger next? Or something else? Maybe the glimmer alicorn? ATM I have 20 gold tokens. Thanks for all opinions.

I’d add an armoured lion for trade tickets, since each trade ticket is worth 66 energy, though you can never go wrong with energy. I love mine

I've been sitting comfortably in second place throughout the event so will probably end in 10th at the last minute.

Been building up my gold tokens but have no idea what to do with them now (currently at 48). Should I save for the cooking camp or wizard's portal? Will they really be helpful? I have the cabbage hut, armored lion, two armored flygers, a golden peacock, and a unicorn. Cat and horse related animals are my favorites! I'm usually in pretty good shape with most normal castle resources and have been stocking up on expansion permits, afraid to expand in case they run another long term quests involving expansion.

I too had a bunch of gold coins saved up so I decided to buy the wizard portal. You get 4 energy every 5 hours with the purchase. Then, you can upgrade it with another 20 gold coins and other things to get 5 energy. I haven?t gotten past that, but was it worth it? Not sure, but I don?t find the animals worth it either so an extra 5 energy is okay.

Just be careful about how long you wait because sometimes the game ends early and also the deliveries make you wait after each one before another appears. I would say make your move a couple hours before the event ends just to make sure.

all items are caped at 99 by default, some have another cap. Trade tickets can only be obtained from trades if you have more then 99 in the inventory. Otherwise they are converted to ..... 15 coins :D

I think I might have helped increase S8?s coffers by $30 :tickled_pink:

The leader on my board was far ahead with 9,500+ points. I proceeded to empty my cache of Swords an Shields and when I had hit 8,500 points, noticed that he/she started fighting monsters to get more points. His/her score was at 9,800 and mine at 9,000 when his suddenly jumped by exactly 1,400 points :) :) :tickled_pink:

Second place is more than fine for me LOL!!!

neska04
11-21-18, 07:21 PM
That’s why I dislike the set-up for the leaderboards; spending gems or money gives you no guarantee of one of the two item prizes. I don’t mind if the prizes are only available with a degree of spend - S8 is a business and you can make a choice, but to spend with no certainty of return is not something I’d consider doing. I’ll take my chances spending nothing: the outcome is usually going to be the same.

Being able to fight monsters and cfaft tokens is the attraction for me; any leaderboard prize is just a bonus

I worked hard this hunt and crafted 4 animals. I predominately fought golems and wolves for the tokens. Hopefully it won't take too long for the results to come. I really like the look of the new black/purple animals.

Didn't hear back about drops in time to let you all know... it will be a surprise I guess! :)

22hr energy dropper, 2 energy type.

I guess it was a good thing I did not know it before hand otherwise I would have spent a lot of hours battling for second place.
Top place getter was 21K+.
I ended up 14th with around 2800 point. energy was not an issue, still have more than 25k left, it's just that there was nothing left I wanted to craft and maxing on gold tokens is a bit of a waste.

With all the holiday prep I've been doing this last week (and especially today) I forgot all about the end of this event to be honest. I played for tokens and met all the personal goals I set in the beginning so all in, I'm happy.

However, I just did my nightly log in and when the notice showed up about placements, I was tapping all over to try and dislodge the pop ups and accidentally went to the first place realm. Now, I am not judging but I cannot wrap my mind around spending large sums of money to win an LB as they had to have in order to end at over 25,000 points with only 8 daily alis and 4 weeklys. Mind Blown.

While I might not understand it, I personally think that if any player is willing to shell out that kind of dough then they deserve the prize because that is a level of dedication I will never attain. And though it seems utterly bizarre to me and goes against the type of playing I do, I will admit to being in awe of that sheer determination.

I can only hope that the next Monster Hunt brings back the Trade Wagon animal craft of the animal because I really miss those!

I know what you mean about the determination of some players to always be on top, at any cost.

For this LB, I had deliberately leveled my score with the leader on my board a few times in the last 24 hours of the event so that we were both at 1st place. But a couple of hours later he would push ahead again, (he only had two weekly and two daily Alis); this despite my informing him of my hope to have both of us in the 1st place. In the end, he was so determined to be the top dog that he spent a tidy sum to leap far ahead, a move I would never do. I would rather spend the $30 on gems for Black Friday.

I did the same in last leaderboard in both of my kingdoms I was really going at it for gold troll tokens and was catching up to people in 1st place.They hadn't moved in quite a while so I sidled up beside them so we both had 1st place,meanwhile I was missing out on gold tokens but I did it anyway as they'd worked so hard but...around 40 mins before end one of them started going again so I just carried on making gold tokens (and ended in 1st place). The other started going again so then I carried on...and ended in 1st place and got alot more gold tokens.
A rew times both my kingdoms have been on same leaderboard and I've gotten joint 2nd place once and joint 1st once. Nice

Somehow I started this event in first place and never dropped below 2; not very high scores either (maybe about 1900). I?ve never come close so this was a surprise. 2nd place and I went back and forth and in the end I ended in #1. So yay even though I?m more a cat person than dog (wolves are like dogs, right?). Considering my dark wolf has only offered me unnecessary creep teeth plus cash, I?m not too hopeful about drops from the shadow wolf. But so many tickets now - they?ve been raining down.

At this point I have so many animals/fairies/cabbage hut/Ivy/trade post etc. that maybe might give me something I need, that I use my first energy load of the day just checking them all out! Just today I got an expansion permit from one and three tickets from another so I don?t want to neglect them :).

Yes, correct, the Armored Shadow Wolf was crafted. The Dark Wolf was the prize for reaching (at my level) 2300 points. The Shadow Wolf was the first and second place leader board prizes. It looks very much like the Dark Wolf so easy to be confused. See post 200 for picture of them together. The prize chest appears but opens itself; it never goes into inventory. Mine gave me 100,000 coins and 20 trade tickets, which were automatically added to the ones I had.

I was in first place until the last 20 minutes. In the end two players that were some where below third place bought their way to the top two places and I ended up in third place. Both of the players had to buy at least 5 value packs to get that far ahead. Buying your way to the top is another reason I hate leaderboard events. It was great for S8, which I do not mind supporting financially, but not for the players who work hard to get to the top. Congratulations to everyone who won the wolf.

As far as the monster hunt I was able to craft two Armored Shadow Wolves and two alicrons so this part of the event I did enjoy.

It doesn’t take buying anything if you save up your crafts until the end. Then, people can gain thousands of points by delivering them. There are risks involved with that strategy, however. Sometimes the game ends early, the crafts have a delay in delivery time so you need to plan ahead with plenty of time and at least one time S8 changed the delivery to add other tasks and not just the 3 crafted items. It’s all about strategy.

My focus was on getting gold coins and I did that in this event. I fought what seems like a million golems and it was fun because I like crafting for the gold gems. I bought the wizard portal and upgraded it once. Debating on upgrading it again because I have the coins, but it will deplete them for me.

In the end I got the shadow one for getting first place and that was also cool! Thanks S8! I love these events the most!

Yeah I boosted 3000 points (finishing on 5000) having saved up energy and shields the entire event. Only 7 gems spent on 1 boost.

Finished in 6th.

I still feel (as I say every LB) that 3rd place should also win the major prize.
Storm8 please change this. It?s a reasonable ask.

This right here is why Leaderboard events just don't work properly. In all the leaderboard events I have participated in, except this one, I have won, not spending gems, not buying boosts, not having a hoard of alicorns or energy. I usually get a little bit over the points required for the animal reward (usually in the 2300 region). And I win the same prize as those who spend real money and tons of energy acquiring 10-20,000+ points in their group. In my group one player was significantly and comfortably ahead the entire game. The first day she shot to about 4000 points and kept pushing forward when anyone came within 1000 points of her. I laughed as, right at the end, probably as she slept, a player came from nowhere and shot past her 11,000+ points to take a comfortable lead and win first place. Lol.

Well, it was a satisfying event for me. I got 43 and 49 troll tokens, and am crafting the cabbage hut in kingdom #1 as we speak. In kingdom #2 I just need 9 more troll tokens for the cabbage hut. I ended in 6th and 8th place in the leaderbord and are very happy with the received trade tickets. I never expected to win the leaderboard anyway.

I moved the troll camp to storage, thus far no troll tokens for me.

As for choosing between the cooking camp or the wizard portal; I've been very happy with my cooking camp ever since I got it. The portal will be last on my list, I think.

His/her score was at 9,800 and mine at 9,000 when his suddenly jumped by exactly 1,400 points :) :) :tickled_pink:

Second place is more than fine for me LOL!!!

Probably bought one value pack while he had a boost going. If you're willing to pay big bucks, multiply that by 10.... so $50 gets you 14,000 points immediately plus doubling whatever they give you for crafted items.

I just hope the Shadow wolf is worth that $30! :) Otherwise... :-/

I would get the Mythic Research centre. You will then have the ability to craft animals that drop energy and other goodies.

Thank you, Bobbyrae. That was my plan but then I got wondering. You have been very helpful! <3

Seriously? 3 energy from a Leaderboard prize? Putting players to compete for a creature that drops 3 energy?

I know there is a range, but still the minimum is quite low. I'd understand from a prize available for everyone, but for the top of the Leaderboard is an AWFUL prize.

First LB was the Spring Dragon she drops wood and yellow flower pedals That all I ever seen dragon scales which I'm always max on , the second was a house with we all know what horses drop ,

Guess I’ll put him with the rest of the slackers... he’ll look huge next to the pastel alicorns and spring unicorns.

2 energy + black flag for wisp lantern. I had 3 items maxed (+45 coins), so there could be other things then lanterns.

Spring dragon has dropped 1000 coins for me. The LB before this had an unicorn that drops 40 energy in seven days, like an alicorn. That's what I call a prize in a competition that involves gems.

Rat tail and something underwhelming that I don't remember.

Worst LB prize ever. I played for the trade tickets and game coins (still looking for Sabrina) but it's highly unlikely I would do another LB event with as much effort as I put into this one.

I see someone mentioned the troll camp drops troll tokens? Not in my kingdom. :-(

Shadow wolf banished to invatory, no energy from any collection just usual monster materials. I was mostly in it to get gold coins but still not impressed! The leaderboard was a disaster, I spent nearly all my energy on the event but still never got anywhere close to the 25,000 plus points of the top three, 1st place was up to nearly 40,000!

I started a request on the feedback section to request an upgrade in this prize. It's insulting to have such a prize for the Leaderboard.

Agreed it's worthless and I get black flag so I stoped collecting .

Ouch! That's what I call dedication! Personally, I'm in it for the tokens and each Hunt I try to beat my previous total of Gold Tokens so I basically play my own game during these LB events. It's just what I've found that works for my own enjoyment since I'm not a fan of competing against other players.

As for the new animals, I'm excited to see what all the Armored Shadow Wolf drops. I've got one crafting now but who knows how long the timer will be. LOVING the look of these purple and black wolves though, so I'm going for broke on this one and craft my little heart out. But I do really worry about where in the world I'm going to place these ones. I've got more than enough energy stored that I'll be able to meet my own goals and have fun doing it.

Hope everyone gets what they want out of this Hunt and enjoys themselves!

I am glad you found a way to enjoy it. I am happy to earn tokens but I still get frustrated that I don’t even have a chance to compete against people who have like 50 Alicorns. I would be happier if I could at least get more than one blue dier boar like I could before.
