    The drops are better from ponds and wells, than chopping rocks.
    I suspect it is for drafting the Block & Beams. Also some building upgrades make no sense at all, the Stable L10 is the worth case.

    Very strange I have 21 onyx ore, nothing to use them for. Yes, the stable upgrade is really strange. I can't see too many players going for that to save 3 minutes.
    SC could you add for the onyx ore, found collecting from ponds and wells. Also the Wizard Portal can go to level 6.

    Incidentally, once you finish the original goal, upgrade a building to level 10, no more goals pop up.

    I am guessing this whole "onyx" theme is to give long time players some new goals to go for. So 16 beams to upgrade something I understand. And I wonder if these connection issues that have cropped up are impeding the original target releases. With more players suddenly unable to get in to play, I am sure S8 is very busy dealing with all of that. I don't mind having really hard to obtain further upgrades. Am I am enjoying having a guess at what the Onyx Ore will eventually be used in!
    Plz add: SofiaDeo, pinkpresence (Pinks Place), impyLou (Queen Impylou), aaerie (Aaerie)
    Plz ask all 4 or none, thx

    Strange indeed. It feels to me as if they meant the Onyx Ore to be used in the new craft for the Onyx Beam and Onyx Block, but then added Spellbound Dew in stead of Onyx Ore.
    And who is going to buy that 300 gems mine if the ore that it drops doesn't have any purpose in the game??

    The quantities on the stable must be a mistake. No way anybody is going to make those 76 beams for a 3 min. decrease on the timer.

    I hope it all gets corrected, the idea of new upgrades is nice!

    I am thinking the same thing -- it seems that the onyx beam and onyx block should be using 20 onyx ore instead of spellbound dew.

    Upgrade for hatchery needs 3 blocks and.... 16 beams. Seems a lot.

    And for stable? Hold on to your hats... 3 blocks and ... wait for it... 76 beams. Lol!

    Gotta be a typo, right? : )

    There were a few issues with a handful of buildings asking for too many of an item, these have been addressed. We have also fixed the Onyx crafts to require Onyx Ore as opposed to Spellbound Dew.

    Not all the new upgrades require the new blocks or beams. Some are very heavy on the gold though.
    Upgrade the sparkling mine to level 10 costs 21 gold.
    Sure would be nice if the gold mines would show up for sale for newer players. Been waiting 15 months on this new account for them to show up with NO LUCK.
