Castle Story 4/13: The Baron's Tea Party | POLL ADDED - PLEASE VOTE

[Den8137259]

Only place we get tea cups is the Tea Party. So I am guessing that so far you have only collected from it once, at level 1. Which is exactly the same as me .

★ cavegirl, thanks for the assurance (: hopefully things go on exponential after that (:

Well, I'm trying to be realistic here, and accepting that since I have a really busy working weekend, and a full working week ahead I'm probably not going to do terribly well with this!

Set myself first target of the timed goal (stupidly gave away the resources before realising I would be asleep all night and might not raise 50 clay by lunchtime today.)

Then I think I would love another peacock. I don't collect from my current one often, but he looks lovely and could use a friend. The other items in the teacup collection are gorgeous art work, but I seldom keep any deco items out as they take up room. I have Easter eggs out now, but they will be put away early next week.

The prize for fully upgrading the tea party appears to be a fountain made of dirty dishes. Not sure I really want that. I'd quite like another little friend for Pepe. I missed the green racoon, but this one is pretty. I might therefore decide to go for the racoon rather than the upgrades nearer the time, and when I see what my chances are for the peacock.

I know this is the sequence, and we were due a community event. But I can't help feeling it's tough over Easter weekend. I have splashed out on a couple more red flowers, and am building a red shrub for more red petals for fewer energy, and I finally weakened and blew my troll coins on a glimmer Alicorn. But I still suspect this will be one I won't finish.

This is a time and energy intensive event so for those who think they will definitely not be able to complete it, I would suggest that you try to at least level up the tea party to lvl 5 as it looks much nicer with servings on the table and patio with surrounding flowering shrubs. Level 5 tea party drops 9 tea cups so you would stand a good chance of qualifying for community prizes.
And of course the spring raccoon is not too difficult to craft.

[RevdKathy]

Yes, that was my sort of thinking.

I gather the extra crafts - tea, cakes and teatray go away between levels 3-5. Can anyone tell me whether the drops do too?

The other thing is, apart from the timed side goal, this is a slow burn. We have three weeks to work on it.

[cavegirl1]

am i reading this right? we will need 75+ red dye between lvl 4-8 yikes

Yep, just been doing all my calculations and came up with 75. I am very lucky I am maxed on red dye

Note that the option to craft the Tea setting continues to be available as we need that to upgrade all levels.

I can't comment on all the drops as I haven't been trying to get anything other than clay.

At 6 Red petals per red dye, that means at least 450 red petals for this event if you don't have any dye stored. I think that's the most ridiculous requirement I've seen yet for any S8 event.

It's not so much that for me ... It's I really don't need or want more paths, more bushes, a third raccoon or another peacock.

After the last quests inventive creations S8 have 'recycled' more things from the past.... And it feels very stale and a little desperate... (But At least it is not a league table) ;-) I am sure the event will hit the community target just before the finish ( as it usually does) without my help this time.

Sitting this out and will take the chance to restock and redecorate.

For 'castle story' now read 'zoo story' . There's Nothing to see here in this car crash .... Move along please ;-)

As cave girl so rightly says ' oh where oh where has castle story gone?....'

I've been calling this game 'my zoo' for about a year. )))
