"Sea you at the Beach" Daily Quests

Forgive me, but I just re-checked the FAQs and unless I need more coffee, I can not find where the 7 Jewels come from to help the 140 Inner Tubes to make the 7 Pool Floats. Can anyone with a sound mind assist ?

EDIT: Are these the Jewels that the Crows produce ?

 

Sound mind... I will reply anyways
Yes, I think it is the jewels the Crows produce. I bought them for this event and I see they have gone up a little in the mkt. just like cooking pots and almost sold out luggage.

 

I guess we got smoked for Beach 3 and set up the Green Meadow for drops only to find out the drops came from the Glade.
Great FAQs and Clarity <Sarcasm>
Thanks Beeps.

 

Yeah, that could have been better.
I had the event crop on the glade and did not get enough drops to finish even step 1 in the quest
Now I'm using the SG I just got in the firefly event easy come easy go

 

And there isn't a Feedback thread to voice my frustration... Yet
Don't make me do my Eliza Doolittle imitation at the Ascot race... aka My Fair Lady.

 

My deepest apologies for the oversight in creating the Feedback thread. It has been created and available for your comments.

 

I realised late that the drops have changed from the green meadow to the magical glade and did not prepare.
Without Super Grow is it better to risk planting my longest crop (carnations if there is enough time) and hope I get enough drops in only one harvest for the whole event or is it better to get multiple harvests of a shorter crop? Are certain crops or types of crops better for getting drops for events eg flowers or vegetables? Thank you.

 

Hi, now I have sold the fields and planted fern. I think I'm late for the long-term plant. I will use the spring crown and harvest bonus and everything I can use.

 

Thank you kimharin - I will try these things too

 

A longer crop whose duration can be reduced by the greatest percentage with the aid of buffs like cloud rows, refinements, artisan products, etc. would be ideal.

If you lack the necessary cloud rows and don't have any refined crops, the next best option would be your longest crop that can be harvested before the quest ends, since base time is the only factor that has been proven to influence the drop rate - the longer the crop, the better the drop rate.

Type of crop doesn't matter but some buffs only apply to certain categories (e.g., the artisan products elixir of life and source of life only work on flowers) so be careful.

Having said all that, I don't know if it's possible to recover from a completely unprepared magical glade and get enough drops for today's quest without using super-grow. We need 255 drops and even with a 100% drop rate, the most you can get from a single harvest on the magical glade is 184...

 

Thank you zerodegrees - that is very helpful. I may not be able to finish these quests like I hoped but at least I am learning a lot. Thank you!

 

As a reminder to all farmers, tomorrow's quest, Beach 5 calls for 6 Cooking Pots which come from your stock via the Cookware Forge.
