I bought the bird straight away cuz I liked the way it looked. Just went 4 for 7 collecting from the robots. So maybe those metal feathers do help.
I can't recall which events, but there have been a couple where they said "Thanks for playing!" or another pop up message and gifted a bundle that would support the event. For example, if they did it for this event, 20 gears or a few blocks and beams with a note from the Baron saying he stumbled across these and thought they might help us.
I don't think they adjusted actual requirements in the past as there would be people who gemmed ahead to finish and that would be unfair, but they've tossed everyone who was still in progress a bone. I know it's happened more than once that I plugged along and some other folks who bailed wished they'd stayed in the game. I think it's a decent solution to a problem like this (or just fixing drop rates; the random ones are so frustrating. In the future just make it Ivy's hut or an 8 hr timer guarantee) but when it's underway, I think they'd have happier players who are still willing to spend their gems to make it to the end comfortably.
I can only speak for myself but I don't expect s8 to compensate me for taking a day or two off, but an expectation that people will log in every two hours while sleeping is just wrong. The events should be built for max 8 check ins a day. Max. Preferably 6, but I can justify paying 2 or 4 gems to make up for some missed items that I chose not to log in to collect. I don't like feeling forced to because I randomly got 0 of something when I stopped what I was doing IRL and I need the item to progress.
Sorry my memory doesn't serve as to which events that was, but someone else might remember.
Are you at a point in one of the main storylines where you need to fight a lot of dire boars? Or where dire boars are invading? I had the same problem in events until I worked past those points.
Space out your rocks when chopping, then if you spawn a dire boar you can move on to other rocks until it is time to collect from sawmills/mines, then leave 1 hit left on a monkey so you don't get more boars, maybe?

Plz ask all 4 or none, thx
I am wondering if Level or Royal Point total have anything to do with productivity of Broken Robot collection. I updated Royal point value of a few buildings and pulled out every item that has any Royal Point value and placed it in my Kingdom before this event. I have placed items totaling over 7000 Royal Points and my collection from Robots has been ok..... not great.......Maybe I am giving S8 way too much credit!!!!
I decided not to do the event. 2 Weeks of only making industrial blocks and beams? Not looking forward to that.
Gonna work on my Coral Castle, Faerie Bulb and Hidden Forest Goal.
Good luck for the players who are attempting to complete the event!
