Recyclomat 2017 Strategy Thread

The Revamped Recyclomat is here for 2017. Hope Everyone Enjoyed New Year !!.

There are still Three Pools to Choose From Pool A,B,C as we still be needing Nublon Batteries from Drops on Fields During Activation of Recyclomat Event

Objective: New to Get as Many Farm Coins as we can Farm coin:


As we can use Farm Coins to Exchange in New Shop O Rama Store. Split into Three Sections Standard, Limited and Special Purchases..



Shop-O Rama FAQ

My Advice Strategy do not bother going for Pool B as Pool A or Pool C Gives us better rewards in terms of Nublon Batteries to Obtain Farm Coins.

If you Notice The EP/TEP and CC Rewards are Better than Previous Recyclomat Events. This time is there is much less Randomness of Prizes too

Good Luck Enjoy this Event

 

Thank you MooBoy. I hope your New Year is progressing nicely, too.
The Recycl-o-mat is one event I have not tried. Somehow the coins make it more inviting.
So we just throw in whatever is requested, except birds and mammals (saving for later), and add batteries?

In the first picture it mentions dust, splinters and Star flowers. Will we have Star flowers to grow?

 

Thanks Mooboy for the tips. I think I will try the Large Pool as much as I can. That's because the only thing that attracts me to this event is the farm coins to redeem the special rewards.


For small pool - 20,000 Value items - 1 farm coins

2 farm coins​

For medium pool - 50,000 Value items - 3 farm coins

6 farm coins
​

For Large pool - 100,000 Value items - 7 farm coins

14 farm coins
​

So 5 tries small pool will give you 5 or 10 farm coins (5 x 20,000 =100,000)
But for the same amount of value items in large pool, you get 7 or 14 farm coins ( 1 x 100,000 =100,000)

And I have lots of doubts regarding the event, so posted in the help section. Waiting for the answer.

 

Thanks 12ss12 for checking the fine print. I am going for the large pool, over 800 batteries in my barn.
I have a Golden banana deficiency.

 

That is Point I am Making that Pool C (100,000 Exchange Value + 35 Nublon Batteries) is best value to get Farm Coins

I have been saving up some Super Grow to only be used to Obtain Special Event Drops for Event Prizes in this Case Nublon Batteries so I can get Lovely Prizes from Shop O Rama Event using Super Grow Nuking Method, Combined with Super Grow Buff

I have already got Two Magic Trees if they was BB Tree i would go for it. I think i got for 50 BB Reward from Special

What are your Doubts 12ss12 ?

 

Servus,

• 1-2-3.

Drops: From anywhere and from everything.

Eventplant: Star Flower

Time: 8 hours
EP/Baha-EP: 120
Plantable on all fields
Value for the Recycl-o-mat per crop: 40

So there will be eventcrop with the same values (checked in the HU and DE FAQs) And they are plantable everywhere.

And the basket are there as well "just like last year".

• 4.

And they were right. The Hungarian and German FAQs state, that tree fruits are out of this recycle event.

"Can be paid:

Animals Farm
Plant farm
Products
Event plants
Event items (nublonite fragments and nublonite dust)"

• 5.

This time only farm things can be payed in.
So no baha animals, baha crops and of course no baha fruits. (As well as farm treefruits)
But, products aren't separated to farm-baha, so the parrot feather are allowed to put in this recycle machine.

Strange that your EN FAQ is this imperfect.



*****************************************

And there is a Baby Boom. Till: 2017. 6th January (Friday) 14:00 (CET)

 

Thanks Zalan. We are having a Baby Boom !!!! Why ? First I thought we could prepare for the event in advance but we can't get the badges for the breeding event if we breed the animals now !!! Any way I usually do not spend too much power feed unless and otherwise it is imminent. Because I do not buy power feeds. Never Ever.

I have one magic tree. I will go for it after getting BBs & GBS.

I got answers for my doubts from our moderator & from Zalan too.

Here they are with answers

Spoiler: Doubts

1. We are having the event plant & drops just like last year, aren't we?
Yes the starflower and batteries will be the same
2. Do we get drops from all fields & crops, trees & stalls ?
Yes
3. Can we plant the seeds in all farms ?
Yes starflowers are plantable on all fields
4. What are the items we can donate to the silo/machinery ? Because it was said that we cannot donate tree fruits.
During this edition of the mini event only the following can be donated:
- Mainland Crops
- Mainland Animals
- Mainland & Baha Products
- Star Fruit flowers
- Nublonite Dust and Nublonite Splinter
The FAQ has been updated to reflect this
3. Can both mainland and bahamarama animals, crops, tree fruits & products be donated ?
See previous answer

You are very much welcome, joanc123

 

*************************************

"* What More Do I need to know?
Shop-O-Rama will reset on the 1st of each Month.

• Standard Prizes can be bought unlimited times
• Limited Prizes some can be bought only once and some multiple times, within a certain period.
• Special Prizes can be bought once."

This statement is wrong a little bit.

That reset thing on the 1st of each month is only for the "Limeted Prizes".
In each month (this is the "certain period") you can buy things for only one time, or other things for five times.

As this picture shows:


If you bought it in the month, it will be sold out:


This shows how many time (1) you can buy it, and how many time you did buy it already. (1)


So, Limited Prizes' counter will reset, count zero after a month.


***********************************
BUT, this doesn't apply for the "Special Prizes". Because they won't be reset. This part of the store only changes one time in long months. This part is the same as the Renzo Store. Only changes few time a year.

So, not once a month and they won't reset to buy it the next month! If you buy it you can't buy it for months... you can buy it when they change the store like the Renzo one.


**********************************
And this "every 1st of each month is a reset for the store" doesn't apply to the "Standard prizes" as well. Because this is a 0-24 shop. You can buy/unlock things in this section of the store unlimited times in a month, this means that it won't reset. It will change like the Renzo Store and "Special Prizes" few time in a year.

Pictures: #1 and the explanations are from both HU and GE/DE forum FAQs

 

Thank you ThomasZalan for sharing. Happy to know Baha products are included.

If the CC value of a Star flower is 40 and the CC value of a Rose is 113 why grow Star flowers on main farm lands?
Is the value different when depositing into the machine?

 

No, it's still 40 CC. This option is good for new players who haven't reached the rose etc yet.

 

I humbly apologize to new players. I appreciate all the time you folks give to enlighten and encourage everyone.
Crop circle is the first plant to top the Star flower. That is available at level 43 and the CC value is 42.

 

The ideal approach to this event: skipping it. From my standpoint, there's no single prize item worth depleting Farm's stock.

 

Might try just For the magic tree and the BB's which we can only get once and then maybe go for Some PF's and the machinery ..which are recurring items
Have 38 Batteries Left from the last event we had

Not that bothered about the stars CAC pineapple cake and super grow ...I can make these...we can make Pf's but it takes to long in the mill and have got some party tickets already

Want to keep as much of my Barn as it is... Has taken a long time to get it together
I want to add to it ...not demolish it SO I am doing little as possible in this event

Thank you everyone for the information for this event

 

Ohh....., I have to thank you and myself that after/because of your post I looked at your English FAQ.
As I thought they didn't write down in the FAQ, that after this event, the nublion akku's (I don't know the proper name of your nublion drops) will be changed in CC and XP.

One drops: 6 XP and 4 CC

So everybody will lost all the drops after this recycle event, if it unused in this few days.

(From the HU, ES, PL forums) But the DE forum isn't mentinon it as well. So hope 12ss12 will ask it in a help thread for you. (Because, I do beleive in "my moderator and FAQ" HU)

 

I only have 24 batteries saved, but that seems unfair to those who've been saving their batteries for future recyclomat events. Use 'em or lose 'em.
I don't see any prizes in particular that interest me, but I'm still going to start collecting coins. There may be something added in the future that I really want, so it will be nice to have a few coins saved up in advance. Of course, it all really depends on how frequently we get coins from the recyclomat. If the payout is too low, I'll just quit and wait for the next event.

 

After Reading Posting here. There are Few Things I need to Add That Might Help you do this Event Better.

1) It is Worthless to Grow Star Flowers only 40 EV/CC for an 8 Hour Crop
2) Growing Rose Refinements Gives 113 EV/CC for under 8 Hours Growing Time.
3) Refined Roses Can be used for Instant Drop of Nublon Batteries using Super Grow Cloud Row and Buff Using Super Grow. Which can be used as Donation Crops for Pool C or Pool A
4) Star Flower Crops does give Good EP/TEP during Harvesting. Can Boost this by 10% using Flower Cloud Row
5) Growing Products on Baha and/or Rain Forest will help with Donations for this Event Nothing Else Grown on Baha/ Rain Forest will Help except for Star Flower Event Crop
6) Lady Bedstraw Crop is an 5 Hour Crop that has EV/CC of 40 which can be further reduced using Lady BedStraw Refinements and Flower Cloud Row, Elixar of Life and Souce of Life Buffs can Reduce it by another 10% Can be Grown under 3 Hours !!
7) This Event is Ideal for those who are short on Stars or Golden Bananas !!
Even for Some of you the prizes not appeal to you it make sense to Stock up on Farm Coins for Near Future Purchases in Shop O Rama !!

Thanks for Extra Info ThomasZalan

 

3 Nublon batteries here on spots, 2 on bearbabe . Won't be growing event crops, fields are full of frogs and dogs and no desire to change, and camels on Baha to replenish all I used in camel breeding event. Since I've got loads of carnations, those will be my donation of choice, only need batteries to get that recylomat whirring! My main focus is those BBs, then the PF, then we'll see. Hopefully my animal pens will give good drops, but if need arises I can always do a few rounds of instant carnations on one field. Truly hope there is an error regarding losing our batteries at the end of the event, that would a galactic goof in my opinion. Have fun everyone!

 

Am I mistaken or do we only get drops from crops and trees on all fields. I don't see stables or workshops mentioned in regards to drops in the facts.

I saw 12ss12 post above, however it clearly says nothing about stables or workshops in the facts. I'm a stickler to details and this leaves me questions. Thank you Joan for responding to me so quickly. It does make you wonder why the facts don't state that correctly?

 

12ss12 posted above in a spoiler, 2. Do we get drops from all fields & crops, trees & stalls ?
And the answer was, Yes
You can see all her questions and the answers she received from the help section.
