Is your farm ready for an event?
Is your farm ready for an event?... An event is like a marathon, you need to train for it way way ahead. You don't start training for a marathon a few days or a week before it starts, so neither do you for events. Therefore start your event preparation today or as soon as you can.
Every event is time critical and has challenges like goals, luck element or drop rates etc. While we cannot control these factors, we can certainly put ourselves in better ("fitter") position by building up our farm resources. Farms lacking resources have higher odds in finishing the event.
earn coins (events always use up coins).
stock up gems by sending trains or buy while on offer.
stock up mining tools.
stock up difficult to find craft items.
Time is also a resource - members who don't have much play time can make up for it using coins and gems.
1. Coins
Coins give you the luxury to purchase crafts for deliveries instead of having to craft. The more deliveries you sent, the better your chances of getting drops. You can buy more trees (in this instance) to get more presents to make up for the shortfall from your collection.
2. Gems
Gems give you the luxury to gem an upgrade part, through a goal or advance goal days etc. When the grand prize is pet, I think it's worth using some gems to get it than not at all. After all, a gem pet in the Market or tree house easily costs minimum of 180 gems, what more is a limited event pet? Ok, some members may not be able to afford to buy gems, send your trains instead to earn gems.
From my past experiences, having these resources does put my farm in a better and fitter position to compete in an event. If you don't, you will need to put in more effort or be realistic of your odds. I hope sharing this will help those struggling farmers to be better prepared for future events. Thanks for reading.
