I'm glad I spent the gems on the Owl Tree. It's making the event much more fun not having to stress about those drops. Unfortunately I somehow spent 60 gems on a Owl Dagger I do not need. I swear this game makes you waste gems once you have over 100. It's annoying but at least all these Owls are adorable.
As SW said you will need to use gems in the Owls roost craft to buy the light armour, it's 10 gems for each student, so 30 gems. My school is at level 6 but I can't continue past step 10 till I have 3 student owls. Working on it. As soon as I saw light armour was required I just thought oh no, more iron, it never occurred to me that I wouldn't have the craft till level 25. In my high level account I'm maxed on them, so this was a bit of a shock.
My first event Fantastic Feasts I ran into a road block with not having a tavern yet and tried to build it in time to finish but ended up geming past the step (but still could not finish). This time I had to grow some pigs which slowed me down and now I find I will be stuck and need to gem again since my level is too low to make armor. Storm8 should make different requirements for low people (like maybe sword instead of armor) because we really should not be required to pay gems to finish.
You can update the School building if you have the crafts before all 3 student owls are crafted & placed. Then you can have the School waiting to collect from, as you place the third owl student, spawn Anuva, and start collecting helmets. The owl students may also spawn Anuva and give scrolls as well as the feathers and helmets, so don't have another monster parked when you collect from them. They don't spawn Anuva all the time like the School seems to, more like 2 out of 3 times. I just collected from all 3 being crafted for the first time, so IDK if this spawn ratio will hold out or not.
Plz add: SofiaDeo, pinkpresence (Pinks Place), impyLou (Queen Impylou), aaerie (Aaerie)
Plz ask all 4 or none, thx
Yes they really need to make some changes for lower players, it is definatly not fairfor us to need to spend gems.
