Can someone tell me how to use it? 15 minutes of straight energy is pretty dumb for my small kingdom.

Welcome, Aaaacastle! Yep, you get 3 chests a day from the Faerie goals. You can get more of them with gems & $$$. I have manage to get the prizes I want just from the 3 a day. You can get all the helmets you need from the Warrior Stronghold. On the first page of this thread, there is a list of how you upgrade the Stronghold. In purple, it shows how many helmets you get for each collection as you upgrade. That is on the upgrades for advanced players, but it is the same idea for players on lower levels.We can collect 25 helmets every two hours when it is fully upgraded (please, forum, correct me if I am getting something wrong). With your infinite energy, you can expand the area of you castle world and chop all the rocks, trees and debris to have more room. I sometimes save to do several expansions at once. You can plant crops and collect all of them and every building to have more coins. Another hint, if you have to chop rocks or trees for a goal, make blocks and beams during event. You can make things in the kitchen with the milk you collect from cows, etc. If you are new to goals, don’t worry too much about finishing. You will learn things that help as you go along, and it gets easier in advanced levels. Hope this helps!

I am shocked
I received a second Amira on my 7th adventure! My 8th adventure dropped one of everything. Except a 3rd Amira ;)

I had pretty good drops from the adventure. I've already gotten 11 of the magic fire so it definitely dropped a few times from the adventure.

Good luck to everyone. I was lucky enough to have enough energy stored to clear rock outcroppings to get all the gravel I needed in 1 sitting. Then I spent 32 hours sending my adventures. I've got 2 more hours until I upgrade to level 4, with enough materials to make 2 more of each building block. So now I can calmly accumulate The rest of the for 11 of each without depleting all my energy.

How nice is it to get guaranteed drops from the troll camp.:)

I've been thinking that too. Much appreciated S8.

I have chopped a lot, really a lot, of rocky outcrops. I haven't gotten a single gold. (Did get one from a mine)

Anyone else notice a drop of gold from the rock outcropping?

Those red gems are rare drop for me. Add to that the rare drop from the adventure, I feel like my kingdom is under some bad mojo.
Double whammy.
4 rock piles- 1 red gem

Yes, the guaranteed drops are much appreciated!


I've only gotten 1 Golden Nugget from probably 20+ rock outcroppings during the event (I'm almost done with my level 5 upgrade requirements).
I didn't get any Golden Nuggets from a huge Weekday Warrior chopping spree, so I was just happy to see it drop.

Guaranteed, really? I am almost convinced that I had at least one troll camp turn without the event drop. I really hope I am wrong!

I was under that impression too, I am glad that I came here and read! I would have dropped out from the game literally years ago without this forum. Thank you both to Spiritwind Shibuyacloth & Co. (and the ones that went on in the past), and to all the players leaving their contributions!

Wow!!!!!! Congratulations on the luck with Amira. I think I got the special adventure prize just once since they started doing this kind of event.

And, having enough energy to chop all the rocks needed in one sitting?? Amazing!

I thought I was just lucky. (I did notice the lack of complaining about it..)
If they indeed changed it to a guaranteed drop it's super appreciated! Thanks S8! (crossing my fingers this will continue in future events!)

Congratulations to those who won Amira!
She drops some useful things and looks amazing + very cool she is animated.

Reminder to everyone that the 'Atrium Antics' goal doesn't need to be completed and doesn't give a worthwhile prize. (Faeries don't carry over to future events)
Just craft what you like the most.
And remember to craft the things you want when you have the faeries (not save them up, you will fall short of Larkspur, Penstemon and Poppy Faeries that way)

If you collect all 3 chests every day (usually) you should have enough to craft 2 Warrior Flag's or 2 Armored Horses or 1 of each, and Brutus the Bandit. (save Brutus till last, you have to wait long for the Talinium Faeries anyway)
(the drops are random, so you could fall short a few.. never happened to me though)

Set apart some 19/20 Rock Outcropping's, so it takes you just 1 hit to break it for the Fearie chest goal.
Battle Bandits (and/or Fangbeasts/ Direboars) and feed Cows for the other 2 goals, and getting 3 Chests everyday won't cost you any extra energy.
Good luck!

Brilliant Idea! Just when I think I have cornered the MArket on smart ideas.. someone 1 ups me well to be honest Everyone does)

since the troll camp is the hold up, i am waiting on it for level 5. i have all but the trollcamp drops, gravel, and 10 fangbeasts. everything else is collected. i havent bothered to make any of the supplies b/c ive been making lots of blocks and beams to not waste those droppings

I thought I saw pictures of the Warrior Stronghold but I can't find it in the first three pages. I hope it gets better looking

LOL great point especially if it's like the tea party. I was disappointed it became decoration only

It should look like the picture on page 1 post #5... I think it looks pretty cool And will keep it out regardless of drop or no drop.

S8 hasn't fixed the tea party yet? I thought for sure they'd turn the drops back on.

Got just a single fangbeast yesterday. Pointless :(

Try chopping as many rock outcroppings as you can in one go. Same with cows - have at least 20 cows if you can to increase your chance to spawn. Good luck!

SpiritWind has asked for more info on this and is still waiting for a response.
I still think it's a mistake, the 'main upgradable building/ Item' has never turned into dropless deco before.

I do that already. No luck yesterday.

So many dire boars. I'll be glad when that's over.
Yeah! I finally got a gold nugget from one of the rock outcroppings.
I'm straight off to make some gold thread. I need more money, money, money.

I put it in storage. Is It supposed to have drops? I will take it out again. Thanks

Nope still just deco

This has been an enjoyable event and I won Armida on my seventh adventure. I could not believe it because usually I never get the adventure prize. Good luck to everyone.

I just got an expansion permit from Armida. I usually don't get one this soon. Yeah!

Is there a technique?

Crazy how the community total has been at 71 percent for the past couple days 🤔

S8 - thank you for a very good event. Even though it seems we get one like this every 2 or 3 events, this one doesn't seem to have as many issues as previous ones. There haven't been as many complaints in the forum (or people have just stopped posting). I believe using the troll camp every 6 hours with guaranteed drop instead on Ivy's Hut every 12 hours also helped in making this a much better event. Hopefully you listened when we told you we have lives outside of this game, and we need an easier pace to the events.

I thought the prizes from the adventure weren't as bountiful as previous events though. I never get the rare prize even when sending out the adventure after I've finished everything else. So I wish you could be a little more generous with the drop rate. Sometimes it seems the same people get the prize each event and sometimes twice while most of us never get one. Especially when the prize drops expansion permits, energy, or something really good, it would be nice for you to change your algorithm to spread the reward out among others. However, I get a pretty good drop rate from the sawmills, so it if would affect that, then never mind.

Overall, improved event in my humble opinion.

Thank you.

I just returned to Castle Story after a long 1,5 year break. I had burned out on event after event, and found myself in a very unhealthy relationship with my iPad and phone. This time around I hope to take it a bit slower, but I plunged right into this event and find myself quite obsessed again. I really hope I can manage things a bit better this time around, because I love the game and have fallen in love with my kingdom all over again!

Me too!! I was obsessed with the game and quit playing when I switched phones. Back in the day it was only available on iphones and we switched to android probably 5-6 years ago. I have missed out on so much in the game & now I'm trying to do so many story lines at once!! LOL I'm glad that I found CS again and that it's available on android!!

Anyone else not getting credited for completed items?
I had 3 armor left to craft i did 2. By my math that shoukd leave 1 left...nope collected the 2 and im still at needing 3...wth??? Plz fix these are hard enough to complete without the bugs

I also want to know if there is a technique to getting the adventure prize- I’ve sent more than 20 for sure (lost count ��) and still no luck ��

Same! I was finish upgrading the Warrior Stronghold pretty fast and just have been doing the recruit adventure at least 2-3 times a day. still no luck getting Armida.

Not as far as I know.
It's random so just a matter of luck. Each adventure is a new (tiny) chance, and doesn't take into account all the adventures you've been on before.
It can be really disappointing and frustrating to try and get the Adventure prize (I stopped a long time ago)
Good luck!

The same thing happened to me...wasted my money.

It is truly random. I received the special adventure prize the first 2 events it was available but hadn't received it again until this event. Once people started talking about sending 20+ adventures with no prize, I decided to only send as many adventures as I could until I had enough of the materials needed for the building upgrade. I refuse to chop rocks or trees, accumulating useless materials, hoping to get adventure materials and then hoping to get a prize to drop.

That?s disheartening :( I?ve just returned from a long hiatus from CS, I forgot how frustrating rare/random drops can be XD But I have 7ish days to keep trying, so here?s hoping for the best. :D Cheers!
