So as a lvl 19 player who has none of the above, I cannot progress any further without buying and spending gems? I do wish I would have checked here before spending the last 2 days working on this part of the quest. I haven't been able to complete any of these special goals. I am not a fan of special quests that I have no way of completing without gems. A warning posted at the start of the quest so you don't spend days trying for the end goal, only to get stumped half way there. =|
So, after reading how frustrated people are with this event, I'm thinking its time to break up with castle story again. Anyone else ready to call it quits because of this event? May take me a month of working nonstop to get this completed, so pity it's timed.
I used to love, love, love this game!!!! Played every day and did every event. Recommended it to family, friends and even my grand daughter.
However, this event has done me in. Level 7 is unrealistic given the time left (plus all the other levels to come). I'm not quiting the game...still love it...but won't let a game rule my life. "Game" energy used is nothing compared to "real-life" energy I'm using. I say this light-heartedly....not complaining. Just wish S8 would lighten up the load.
In my 4 years of playing this game I cannot recall EVER being this strapped for energy...this isn't even fun...
I ran into the same difficulties. I decided to build the conservatory (and an extra stable)
I was pleasantly surprised today when the magic garden dropped two piles of seeds.
I understand the frustration, but it IS possible to complete the seeds without gems.
As for completing the quest?
Yet to be determined but I'm still giving it a go...
You got it! Events used to require work, but we could do them without having to buy too many gems. The powers that be started making the events harder and harder. If you have a full-time job or other demands on your real life, these are pretty much unachievable without buying gems.
Stable drops 1-2 exotic threads.
