Fabulous Flowers.

Fabulous Flowers Event.
Running:27th March-2nd April.
Difficulty:Medium.

By mi quick browse this Event is based on Drops only!
So a quick math gave mi these overall numbers to claim the CR,(60 mini-games).

Drops:
Flower Seed:3,300,(gained from all Field Crops,Trees,Pens & Workshops-Main Farms Only! + 50% chance of obtaining whilst Breeding).
Paper Bag:1,980,(gained from all Field Crops,Trees,Pens & Workshops-Main Farms Only! + 50% chance of obtaining whilst Breeding).

Edit:
Needing 55 x Flower Seed & 33 x Paper Bag to Mill the Seed Pack,(milling time is 1m:30s).

60 Seed Pack's are needed to play the 60 mini-games in order to gain the Events CR.

There are two Buzzers on the Event comprising of:
A Green Buzzer:Meaning a new flower arrangement giving a bonus prize.
A Blue Buzzer:Meaning an arrangement already used so there will be no bonus prize.

CR Effect:600 EP x Farm Lvl, +1 extra revenue whist Harvesting 'Flowers' for 2hrs, 200% extra EP/TEP for 'Flowers' for 2hrs, Cooldown:22hrs,(requires 4 Event items).

Enjoy and Good Luck.

 

Hi I know we had an event like this in the past. Does any body remember the name of it?
Thanks cubanmissile crisis for starting this.

There was an event "Rock&Robot" in April 2018 where you needed to let the robot dance.You had to choose from 3 different moves. Required only one kind of drop and "only" 30 drops for the dance-chip. But also requiring plants to be grown.

BP is really funny with a requirement of a total of 9,300 drops in an event duration of a week. This event would require a daily drop rat of more than 1500 drops!!
Too much and impossible!

I AM OUT!

BTW Thanks for starting this discussion

 

Until we see the drop rate, we don't know that.

* usually BP makes the event rows reachable for the high level average event player
*Drop comes from breeding, meaning BP really wants us to breed more. And buy more PF.

I'll make an effort. Just drops means long term crops, fits my life. And I could do with some breeding, and just spent 1500 farm coins, so could use some more of those too.

Thank you cubanmissilecrisis for crunching the numbers, and starting this event off.

 

German and Hungarian FAQ listed 33 paper bags for the mill instead of 100!
Hopefully they are correct and we "only" need 1,980 paper bags for the 60 mini games.

Good luck!

 

Since 15 min later, we will know the qty to mill 1 seed pack
So, I will not post question to ask Mod

 

FAQ have been amended. 33 paper bags needed now per seed pack.

I am still out of this

 

Happy normal farming clonahmon

(would be interesting to hear how much drop you get without trying, just farming normally)

 

English FAQ says 100 Paper Bags,Think about it it's classed as a Medium Level Event so only 1,980 Paper Bags seems very unlikely in a week long Event where you get Drops from everything that you Harvest,To be honest with you I hope it's only 33 Paper Bags needed but I doubt it very much?,If I'm wrong hey I'll say I was wrong yet pin the blame on BP for giving different countries different numbers!,It'll be 100 or could you really class it as an Event

 

Well they have amended their numbers on the FAQ I was wrong,Or was it BP?,I was lucky enough to have long growing high EP Crops out anyway(that still aren't ready!),So I'm curious to know with the initial Harvest of everything how many Drops I'll get with this lower number of Drops needed?

All I can say is thankfully it turned out to be only 33 Paper Bags needed and not 100 for each Mill,What a very,Very Poor initial Drop for me!

 

Think BP changed the numbers earlier today.
I got 220 flower seed, and 177 paper bags.

 

For reference with four leaf clover on three fields, a handful of trees and two complete menageries - 285 flower seeds, 152 paper bags.

I will see how it goes; should pick up some nice items even if I decide against completion.

 

I got 32 paper bags from a field of iris (magical glade), which I think is quite a low number. Still waiting on my field of Jute to be harvest ready.
I was not planting them in respect of the event but as I just need them

 

That is exactly what I intend to do! I am busy tomorrow but after that I will plant what I need to advance in the FSQs I have going.

This looks like a nice, relaxed event - unless you are determined to finish it that is! I will get what I can but not worried about another CR - if I get it, I will be happy but if not, I have enough to keep a farmer in EP and TEP for a while!

 

I've put out stables, we'll see how that works out. Probably not

Anyway, since there is an extra prize for every new combination, I went to the german forum and found a list of combinations.

EDIT: Added the rewards I've found.

 

since it's drops only...and a milled product...

A) I am going as far as I can on both farms - why not?

B) I fully expect that tomorrow we'll get a Baha event and another mainland event and Renzo's Fair and a San Gigantica Express and...and...and...

 

This event is six days long, 144h /24h = 6 days. Esp when the event starts/ends at 5a.

60 * 55 = 3,300 / 6 = 550 flower seed drops per day
60 * 33 = 1,980 / 6 = 330 paper packets per day

Two of my farms got drops of flower seed in excess of 300 from mostly wild rose and snowballs. The third farm has slightly less than 300 because... I wasn't paying attention when I prepped a couple of fields. Today I'm growing mostly... marjoram. Tonight I PLAN to grow more wild rose... lol. I seem to have started a sinus infection last night so sitting and watching long crops grow would be my preference this week but... I have an exercise class today and more workmen on the property tomorrow. In the morning I'll probably activate my "flower" CR

With 300 drops of flower seed from my initial harvest... I usually double my initial harvest for a daily number. I don't expect problems getting drops. I don't have any of my Howie donuts in play right now. I'm an upper level player with an established farm. Lower level players might struggle with this one a bit. Comfort fields with SG boost might be one strategy to move things along.

I'm going to try to relax from RL, as much as possible, and enjoy this event since it is a low stress, "do as you wish" event.

Anyone that doesn't have 12h crops or time to micromanage their farm might do better filling their fields with apple trees and harvesting once every twelve hours. Altho... I would prefer a 15h crop w/ water and harvest every twelve hours.

Don't forget we can use Alchemy to boost our times. DO NOT HAVE TO BE FLOWERS. But for instance... Elixir of Life (EOL) and Source of Live (SOL) can be use to speed things along.

If I was a lower level player, or someone who works for a living, w/o the buffs I have access to I would probably... grow red roses three times a day w/ water and manure (if I thought I would be available to harvest). That's probably better than apple trees. When more time is available grow whatever I fancied with as many buffs as possible.

Best of luck y'all!

 

i will do what i can and not buy anything with real money.

 

Thank you cubanmisslecrisis and everyone, I'm in, mill whatever comes my way, and enjoy some nice prizes. Good Luck everyone.

 

I'm a bit confused .....do we have to only grow flowers to get drops? Or can it be any plant?
