Thanks WisdomTree, for starting the thread and as always your wonderful detailed post! I will attempt this event as I am a "Piccolo Box" junkie! Got to have them!

 

Well, I'm in on the three usual farms. Going to try to get a healthy start tomorrow during the short timed baby boom.

Thanks for starting the strategy thread, Wisdomtree!

Now for my piece of strategy. If you've heeded my previous advice, you've been saving up your crates. Tomorrow, BEFORE you start breeding is when you open any and all crates related to animals and breeding.

 

Baby Boom Thursday 4-21 @14:00 ending Thursday 4-21@22:00 Good luck to all

 

Looks NICE for 1st looking... only 267 breedings, really 534 Power Feeds (thats only, compare the required amount with the previous breeding task, where it took a long time more than a thousand breeds and even then luck was needed in addition to everything ...)

 

Thanks Wisdom Tree for putting the numbers together. This looks easy...until you see the support quest. Ugg, I've been putting breeders to quests, so the numbers required to get the 2 popcorns looks a bit difficult.

 

Thanks WisdomTree, for starting the thread.
I think I've seen too many piccolo boxes.

 

Seven Piccolos, maybe it's true, did I read the table correctly ...

 

You say 7 piccolo boxes. Then I am certainly into the event. I am ready to sacrifice 500 and odd PFs for the piccolo boxes !

 

Why do you recommend that? I can't think of any advantage that would give.

 

Finished with all 200 tasks! It helps to have a well stocked barn to do the timed quest part...not fond of turning all that stock in BUT the piccolos and the BB's helped! Good luck to those doing the event I was also able to move my bears (mammals) and made the pink hammock factory, so I am very happy! Now going to put the CR up!

 

Having finished the whole event and played about a bit with the effects of the cloud row, I have come to the following conclusion:
The cloud row buff for feed mill time reduction seems to work for the 8 hours it is active, on feed that's already milling as well as feed newly added. It stops at exactly the 8 hours mark, like this:

I currently have ~3 hours worth of sheep feed in my mainland mill, that was reduced in time when the cloud row was activated.
Adding one PF adds 4h 3m (I have all mill bonuses so normal time is 4h 30m)
Adding 2 PF instead of 1 adds 4h 26m 22s (now milled mostly out of bonus time)
Adding 3 PF instead of 2 adds 4h 30m

In conclusion, there is no benefit in waiting to activate the cloud row or in loading up your mill when the bonus is active. Just use it as often as you can.

 

Completed the event using a total of 336 power feeds as I filled the breeding house on the discount day.

 

I am still clicking on the right side task list. Clicking takes on forever.

 

Is it worth doing the support quest?

 

You have to do the support quest if you're planning on going beyond level 75 on either side, otherwise no. I think the rewards are worth it personally.

 

Operation complete
The number of Piccolo boxes in my warehouse increased to 13.

 

My Warehouse was 11 Piccolos BUT...

The thing was done, Piccolot didn't disappoint this time either.

There were 3 good items ("planted" 5 Piccolos) (Magic Hat, Multitasking Genius and Flower Spray Art)

but also the worst of all, (much worse than many barking Fairy Hot spring, however 15x SG ... !!!) i.e. Florat Tunes (only 5x 11000 ++ CC ) and Dottet Parasol, which scores only points. The latter two were completely removed immediately, the others of course remained in use!

 

Dotted Parasols are nice givers. 1x1 giving that much EP...equals happy bunny.

All done with this event on the three participating farms. Yay.

 

Plus the dotted parasol has no limits like many of the items you get. If you don't like it, there were lots of people looking for them last G&T. I'm sure you can find someone else that wants it.

Finished on all four farms.
