Castle Story 09/24: An Elemental Discovery (main story) | goals on page 1

[nm666]

So this seems like it’s structured similarly to the earlier “the hidden forest” storyline which gave us the three stone animal totems (Anamnecia, Vimino, and Acidien), and the three creatures (Renata, Salvatore, and Hortensia.). I think it might be a good idea to look up those details...

Here’s my guess:

Part 1:

Antidotes -> newborn sprites
Wind chimes -> forest compasses
Toxified spirits -> forest wisp
Expansion to air temple -> expansion to Acidien
Wind spirit fight -> enraged sloth fight
Tea with wind spirit -> Acidien tribute

Part 2:

Poisoned wood -> forest vines
Water compass -> forest blades
Expansion to water temple -> expansion to Vimino
? -> enraged rhino fight (199 hits)
? -> Vimino tribute (10 forest wisp essence, 35 dragon scales, 30 newborn sprite)

Part 3: (45 day timer on side goal for forest event)

? -> forest ore (sparkling mines and sawmills)
? -> forest lanterns (8 forest wisp, 5 forest vines, 45 forest ore)
Expansion to earth temple? -> expansion to Anamnecia (35 newborn sprites, 10 forest compasses, 10 forest blades, 20 forest lanterns)
? -> enraged elephant fight (299 hits)
? -> Anamnecia tribute (20 forest wisp essence, 25 Mithril, 50 newborn sprite)


And there is also a wealth of information about strategies, potential problems, drop rates, etc in the discussion thread for the hidden forest...

My Magie forges crafted only one wind chime. But I need now 8. But it is not possible. Help me please.

If you are a low level new-ish account, I don't think you will be able to finish the timed part unless you spend some real $ on gems/value packs. I spent some when I was lower level for items I really wanted (Lair of the Beasts was my first, I think), but it may be better to spend a few months building up your resources and coins/coin droppers. I got frustrated with a few events early on; I didn't have daily or weekly energy droppers, I ran out of coin, I didn't have enough resource animals/plants/buildings.... I spent a few months building up my queendom & participated only in Community Events to get energy chests/intermediate prize, or other events to the point of getting a mid prize. Try to get 10-12 farmhouses so you can easily do the Weekly/Weekend Warrior events; I could collect from everything in those 15 minutes of energy & build up my stores of water, eggs, etc. The next thing I did was save enough to get the Tinker Camp to have an extra partial workshop/potion shop. On Monster Hunts, I went for Lorelei's Fountain first.
Hang in there, don't let FOMO get to you! There will always be new cool prizes from the S8 Team!

Doesn't Poisoned Wood also drop from the Toxified Trees and Stumps?

Sorry, I was unclear. The only tree. Yes, it drops from the other toxic plants, but I have been averaging 1 poisoned wood from every 2 stumps. So, I am just growing a ton of trees.

Do the toxified spirits still spawn from bushes between part I and II? Thanks

[Galadraal]

I don't seem to be getting toxified wood from ANY tree including the toxified ones. Need 21 compasses and 25 antidotes along with the 8 wind chimes. Plus you need to expand to the area next to it first

I have been try to get mithril for 2 days. I have everything else for first plot. Very frustrating. Deep mines nothing. Chopped 15 dark formations, nothing. I don?t know why I don?t have things that re guaranteed drops. 😞

I'm pretty sure they keep dropping

Very observant, nm666. THANKS! : D

What is preventing you from crafting more wind chimes? If we understand the problem we may be able to suggest a help.

I feel your pain! I started the quest with 9 mithril. Now I have 15. Two of the dark cave formations I had only gave me coins!!! I crafted the Dark Night and he?s dropped 1 mithril so far. I just upgraded one deep mine to level 9. The other mine is level 5. Working on upgrading that. I have Kang and Philomena and have gotten a couple mithril from them. I am crafting a mithril in one of the magic forges.

Which quests give mithril or dark cave formations?

Which trades give mithril?

What is the best or most guaranteed source of mithril?
