Prime Cuts

[mara804]

Where can I find the prime cuts of steak? Can't seem to find any for my high steaks goal.

[midnightmeerkat]

Cows, sheep, stables, adventures

[arale_norimaki]

I haven't got any since I got the goal yesterday :-(

[midnightmeerkat]

I hope your luck changes today

[yupiyupigumgum]

I've got 3 from one hunts for roaming bandits.

[beersasi]

How many times you have to tend a basic baby sheep (35 gems) until it's grown up? I have tended it for about 2 days but it's not mature yet. I want to see how prime cut looks. ��

[Dragon_cdk]

I'e only pulled one from a cow (after the 6 they give you for the opening quest), and no more from 4 cows and a sheep. I have one pig working on truffles, so he may be there a while...

[erxi9]

The goal says 'a rare drop from cow and sheeps'
well, make that ultra rare

I got 3 from roaming bandits opening this quest. i got nothing from my 5 cows since then.
hope i get another one through adventure. good luck to all !

[yupiyupigumgum]

So the sheep is no better than cow in producing prime cut . I have nothing spectacular from my cows spotted or normal one. Nothing so far from stable. My last hope is adventure

[arale_norimaki]

Has anyone bought a royal cow? Those are supposed to be better for prime cuts (not that I have that amount of gems, lol!)

[tiggerhobbes]

I've gotten 3 from adventure (bandits), 13 from sheeps, none from stable and cows. But then I've stopped collecting from my cows now.

[arale_norimaki]

This a post I wrote elsewhere. I post it again because it makes sense... And I really like my flower-eaters cows, lol!



I haven't got a single prime cut since I received the goal...

Maybe my cows don't like what I feed them! As you can see, I give them only the finest herbs, they are quite fussy, imo!

If you feed them hot peppers they might drop something special :p~

Now scientists say an important part of the grenhouse effect gazes in the planet comes from cows... Imagine what the effect would be I feed them hot peppers :D :D Summer all year round!

Oy methane is a renewable energy source! You can make a fortune selling natural gas ... no really :D

[erxi9]

I've gotten 3 from adventure (bandits), 13 from sheeps, none from stable and cows.

13?? OMG!! it totally belongs to sheep.

[erxi9]

and arale, tigger,, u guys really crack me up lol

[tiggerhobbes]

Any chance your kingdom is hiring a royal jester? :D I'll send my resume.

[erxi9]

needless to say! i think u can be very valuable asset to my kingdom xD

btw i just got a prime cuts from my cow, just when i thought 'this is the last time and i'll put those in my storage'
what a surprise!
but these cows ate a lot of my energy, like 50.... so i'm between two choices.

You should put it into the suggestions thread 😜

"Dear TL:
May we (mais oui!) be given the option to grow our own animal feeds, and depending on what we feed them, have these loyal farm animals drop gaseous projectile energy bolts to improve Kingdom output?

-Your royal fool"

Can someone proof read that before I submit the business proposal to the high court? ;-)

Jokes aside, I just got two more prime cuts from my sheeeeeps :sheepish look: smack smack. So at least for my kingdom, lamb chop seems to be the way to go.

[thatgirl444]

do you guys know how to get the golden apple? does it only drop from the apple tree that costs gems or could you get it from any tree? (im sure it would cost half a forest to get that one apple)

[thatgirl444]

and by the way...I have two chickens and to my great surprise they both pooped gold eggs this morning. I look at them both with greater respect since that moment.

[arale_norimaki]

The magic garden is the other option

I think TL will love it. You should add the hot peppers as an example :P "For instance, if they are fed hot pepper, their gaz would create a protective atmosphere around one's kingdom to keep safe from beast during a given time" ;) Even if actually I think that would attract more trolls in the real world!

What kind of sheep do you have?

[midnightmeerkat]

Pretty sure that normal trees do NOT drop apples.... The magic garden does and from adventures

[swots90]

I totally got 15 cuts from my cows already in less than a day! This is strange

[AkumaNeko]

I got zero :/ and it's been a while :/

[tiggerhobbes]

I got zero :/ and it's been a while :/

I got 19 so far. In the mean time, I'm about to get to lvl 18, and I still haven't got enough glimmer dust to build Ivy's hut.

I wonder if different players have different "ease of access" to different resources.

I wouldn't be surprised. I have 2 kingdoms and have different rates of growth in terms of goals in both games.

O_O

Ok, glimmer dust is a pain but to the point of not getting enough to build Ivy's hut??? Are you using red mushrooms circles? Those drop glimmerdust for me aprox. 2 out of 5 times :)

But since my 5 cows dropped 1 prime cut in 5 days, it totally makes sense what you say about different rarety depending on players ;) You get a rational amount of meat, I get some glimmerdust. Wonder who's the lucky player to get jewels!!

I have some red circles, I have a strip of different mushrooms, interestingly I seem to have better drop rate from the cheapest mushrooms (the ones not in circle,) but still, it's painfully slow.

Keep in mind early players used to be able to request GD with Ivy's hut. By the time I got Ivy's hut they've disabled the feature. So if you are an early player, it's probably hard to imagine how painfully slow GD is, especially early in the game when you have to spread your energy on a lot of different things. Now that I'm leveling up and accumulating some wealth I can stop collecting coins building and also grow slower crops and direct more energy to GD. I'm hoping I will be able to get Ivy's hut sometimes this week.

Oh no, I started playing two weeks ago (and have been one week on holidays :P), so my glimmerdust came all from mushrooms, some tall grass I cut after one expansion (there were four of them and ALL dropped one glimmerdust, I was crazy happy!!) and one a neighbor sent once as a gift. It is also a rare ressouce for me, but I can not compare it to jewels or earth wisps, for example (or truffles or prime cuts, even though I feel these two are less necessary in the game).

[athoubi]

I haven't got any since I got the goal yesterday :-(

same here

[arale_norimaki]

Has anyone collected any prime cuts from the stable?

This multitasking to achieve 10 goals at a time is driving me nuts, lol!

Yeah, I just saw your kingdom and realized you're also a new player.

I keep getting flower petals from the gall grass >_< See what I mean? Different players just have different ease of access to different materials.

On that note, I'm 10 prime cuts away from finishing my second meaty goal. It probably has something to do with the fact that I'm a tiger though :-3

Missed your earlier question -- I have two white gem sheep, I think they were 35 gems or so. In the beginning of the game I kept falling into gem traps so I decided to just spend them on animals before I lose them.

I do the same with gems... Bought a pig and this morning a sheep thanks to the gems from a et story goal. Like u, I lost lots of them to stupid traps while harvesting at the beginning :(

How did u see my kingdom? Are u one of my new neighbors????

[tiggerhobbes]

Oh I forgot you don't see the user name with neighbor request!! LOL yes, my place is "Laputa" (hope you don't speak spanish, I'm referencing the Miyazaki anime) and I gifted you jewel :p~

Ohhh! If I had known who you were I would have sent you a gift, instead of continuing my randomly gifting routine :( Thanks a lot, it is lucky I know who you are cause I might have sent you jewels too... Instead, tomorrow you'll get... Guess what??

Actually I am Spanish ;) but I thought the name was referring to Gulliver so I was not surprised

[mamareader02]

Been collecting from cows since Friday-only one darn prime cut!never gonna make the 30 quota!not gonna buy the gem animals just for a quest!truffles were making an occasional appearance,but now nothing!

[nokkha]

Just got 1 prime cuts from my normal cow after 3 days!!!!...now golden apple please drop my way -/\-'

[rene2222]

My 2 cows been eating my buses for a long long time and doesn't produce prime cuts to me. perhaps it will give me prime cuts if i stop feeding them, LOL.

[yupiyupigumgum]

My spotted cows never give me anything except 25 coins and a star. I got prime cuts from adventures. Should I cut the cows and get prime cuts from them?

Oh Nooozzz, give me glimmer dust of give me death!

Just kidding :3 I'm easy, I don't promise to tip and I don't promise to gift regularly, but do come by once in a while for a cup of coffee, make fun of the cow dropping, send your naked knight over to borrow eggs or sugar. I don't have a quip pro quo policy when it comes to neighbors ;-)

Oh what's the chance. Your user name looks Japanese, to think you know what la pu... ugh, never mind. This is more embarrassing than Thurston's predicament, lol.

[nokkha]

LOL!!! Good idea! How many cuts you think we can get from one cow? ;)

I get prime cuts from quest as well.

At this rate I will finish collecting prime cuts today. In the mean time I am still 5 glimmer dust short of being able to build Ivy's hut. I'd rather get more GD than prime cut, it's one random, irrelevant goal that isn't going to significantly slow down your game progression.

Will try to send you one GD tmr ^^

[tiggerhobbes]

Aww thank you ;___;

Ivy will personally come over to thank you, she can finally get a promotion from her vagabond status. Just watch out for that suspicious stuff on her plate ... you don't want to know what it is >__<

[mamareader02]

Still only one piece of prime cuts!c'mon,gimme a break!bright side,getting along at a decent pace for the other goals!

[hopesdragons]

I got 9 Prime Cuts from a quest today.

[yupiyupigumgum]

TL has made goals that needed very rare materials like prime cuts and truffle, even ridiculously harder to get than GD! I'm beginning to feel like playing casino, all about luck, random and chance. Chance to get same material is definitely neither fair nor equal for every player.

They did say that some of the quests are designed to be more long term..... How far are you along? On one game I have 15/30 truffles and 21/30 prime cut game 2 13/30 truffle and 13/30 prime cut

[tiggerhobbes]

I think rare is in the eye of beholder? I have two sheep, one cow, two pigs, I finished both the high steak and need for truffles goals last night, and still stock piling truffles and prime cut with no use for them as far as I can see. In the mean time, I just can't seem to get my hands on any glimmer dust except from generous neighbors.

I'd rather have lots of GD and no prime cuts >_<

[nokkha]

And I have max out on GD... Irony right? I wish we can trade with each others Prime cuts for GD... ;)

[tiggerhobbes]

O.O;;;

HOW?? Did I fall asleep when they gave the lecture on the secret to stock piling GD?????? GAHHHHHHH

*ninjas into nokkha's castle*

I would love to be able to trade off my aged ribs for GD =__= The GD situation is preventing me from building anything beyond market place and library. Every level-up is like a taunting, "neena neena, you can build this new building, except you can't~~"

[nokkha]

Well I got 3 red circle mushrooms since the still gave 2 GD at a time, 1 circle & 1 patch...sometime I got up to 6 GD/tended :P also ivy's gave me a lot too so you should be catching up in no time since you got her hut up & going already :)

[NanaCanna]

I have the royal cow & pig. They do drop a lot more then the other ones. I get a lot of my prime cuts from my sheep. The black sheep takes along time to grow up. I thought it was never going to. I was starting to think it wouldn't hence the meaning of black sheep.

[yupiyupigumgum]

They did say that some of the quests are designed to be more long term..... How far are you along? On one game I have 15/30 truffles and 21/30 prime cut game 2 13/30 truffle and 13/30 prime cut

Truffles 5/30 and prime cuts 6/30. I got my prime cuts from adventure twice, 3 for each adventure. So, if I want to collect 30 prime cuts I have to do 10 hunt bandit adventures, that means 10 days! I hope I have a lots of bandits here. ... My pigs not only stop giving me truffle, but also bacon. Maybe because something they eat? Well, I hope I can get sir pig before Santa gets here

[arale_norimaki]

My sheep is now an adult, I just collected from it for the first time... And it gave me a prime cut!!

[midnightmeerkat]

Great! I have more luck getting prime cut from sheep than cows

[tiggerhobbes]

Am I allowed to say, "I told you so?" :p

I think that's why I'm getting so much prime cuts so fast; I got two sheep early on in the game when I got sick of all the gem traps and they're already full grown by the time they introduced prime cuts. I reckon they have well over 50% drop rate for prime cuts, whereas the moos (even the 120gem black moo) only drops them once in a while.

Yes you are, lol!!
I think I might finally end my prime cuts goals, yeah!!

[yupiyupigumgum]

It's been 3 weeks and my primecuts are still 9/30 ! I've heard that I will have to collect this stuff later again on 'feed the baron' goal. All my cows NEVER drop any prime cuts. Sooo.....should I buy the sheep? Is it guaranteed to drop prime cuts?

I'm up to 19/30 now I bought the sheep few weeks ago and just bought the white cow a 2 days ago I got like 3 out of the white cow...I can keep record today and let ya know how often it drop the cut ;)

I have a sheep and it definitely doesn't drop prime cuts often for me. I'm at 7/30. I'm collecting from a sheep, black pig, pink pig, sir pigglesworth, a stable and as of today a white cow. I did have two regular cows out for about a week or so but they didn't drop one prime cut so they are back in storage.

I thought pigs only gave bacons and truffles. My cows (black, original, purple) are useless for getting primecuts. Hunt for roaming bandit adventure is my only source of prime cuts so far. I hope I can finish this goal before 2013

[wu15]

I got a Royal Cow from the Dark Cave adventure and so far the the chance of getting a prime cut from this cow is 50%. Can collect from it every hour so i think i can complete the task of collecting 30 prime cuts pretty soon!

[sugarzen6]

Wow that's great to know! I got a white cow from an adventure and that little stinker hasn't given up a single prime cut.

[sugarzen6]

Haha well no wonder I'm not getting any prime cuts. Thanks for the info- guess I better pull my cows back out or bite the bullet and buy a royal cow.

[yupiyupigumgum]

My black cow ( from adventure) has started to drop prime cuts almost regularly. Now , after nearly a month, i finally reached 20/30 ;p ....still 10 to go....and maybe more from the next goal :'(

[666HexxKitten666]

I've now had this task for 2 weeks and i have collected 1 prime cut! Is this a normal rate of drop? I have 5 cows and a purple cow... At this rate i might finish this task by NEXT Christmas!

[scottyhaha]

I think purple cow drops only purple stuffs. If you lucky coin cow will drops prime

[yupiyupigumgum]

When i had that prime cuts goal i only got it from hunts roaming bandits adventure. And now that I have completed the goal ( took me almost a month) my coin cow , black cow and sometimes sir pig suddenly dropped prime cuts like 3 times a day.

[scottyhaha]

I got 6 primes didn't even bother to get more from my coin cow. Put my cows away and just do the keeper quest
