Beat the Heat

The Baha Museum is the ultimate prize in this event. Please note that to upgrade it to its fullest capacity, players will need to purchase the Museum Blueprints into the event shop for 600 Gear Coins.

The tile that we're looking for are the dark red strip towels, that's the one that rewards Gear Coins!

The cloud row is not half bad:

Beat the Heat Magic Stalk Row

Rewards: 4500 EP x Farm level, 4500 TEP x Baha level, 200% extra EP/TEP when harvesting givers for 4 hours
Cooldown Time: 40 hours
Requires the five event items

A second set of givers can be baught in the Gear Coin Market for 126 Gear Coins a piece (630 Gear Coins for all of them). Remider: if you're aiming for the Baha Museum, keep in mind that you will need 600 Gear Coins to purchase the 24 Museum blueprints (8 Museum blueprint at 200 Gear Coins each x 3 purchases).

Good luck everyone

 

Northy, thanks for starting the strategy thread!

I'm in on this farm and SL's. Moar museum is good. Very good. CR is also nice, as are the Season Points.

Timers. That's how I roll now. Saturday will be the bug-a-boo...

 

Thank You Nordais for starting the thread and crunching the numbers! Then posting it all in a clear way so numpty's like me
can understand! I am hoping to at least get to the CR or do the whole event IF I can get the crops grown and the drops are reasonable! Good luck to all and I hope the event starts without issues!

 

I'm in too, thanks Nordais for doing all the hard work for us!

Am I right in thinking that the blueprints we may already have (I have 144 Museum Blueprints from FSQs I have completed) can be used to upgrade the Museum we win in this event?

There are also Museum Blueprints as prizes in the FSQ which will start when the new Museum is available so we do not necessarily have to spend our Gear Coins on Museum Blueprints. Please correct me if I am wrong here, don't want to mislead anybody.
Good luck all!

 

The Museum blueprints you get from FSQs are all required to upgrade all the Museum to the max from the mainfarm, bahamarama and Moonlight Mania. By getting that new baha Museum from the event, the 24 Museum blueprints must be purchased with the 600 Gear Coins else you will end up with one museum with only 4 opened spaces, not the 8 it contains.

EDIT:

Some of the Museums are rewarded by doing FSQ (Moonlight Mania), some need to be bought with BBs and one can be gained by opening a rune in the Tree of Wisdom on the Magical Glade.

 

Thanks for the info Nordais. I'm still up in the air as I have event burnout and a busy rl schedule.

 

Do you ever rest, my friend?! You roll out the FAQs so effortlessly shortly after the event is announced and when slug-a-bugs like yours truly, haven't even had their first cuppa! Thank you!!!

Love this event's FAQs, and that is a very cute CR and set of givers...I, too am on the fence as I do like to take a break...but we shall see. Good luck to all participating

 

Can we place that Museum OTHER PLACE than Bahama-areas?

Or it is ONLY givers than get me TEP, not EP?

Because: LVL800 Bahmarama, no points from everywhere...

 

Museums like arboretums, menageries and manufactories are limited to their lands (main, baha, moonlight mania), the cannot be move elsewhere. You still get TEP, but you're not gaining levels in baha. When BP will update Baha, you will gain levels, we just don't know when.

 

There IS a silver lining to the Baha museums - you just have to look at it sideways and squinting a little:

Since I've maxed out the Baha levels ages ago, I put every giver that gives something tangible on the baha giver fields (i.e. magic trees, BB trees, the old wheel givers that give spins and SSG and so forth). Most of those givers also give out paltry EP/TEP (doesn't matter - maxed out) and a lot of them take two days to mature - also doesn't matter.

So that's what I have on my baha giver fields and now I can have even more - and so can you!

 

Babyboom and Palooza start today, Friday, at 14:00 hrs!

 

I have just finished the FSQ which gave Museum Blueprints as prizes, I now have 168 in my Barn. I have them because I haven't bought any Museums, just the ones given as prizes or from the Tree of Wisdom. So, before you spend your precious Gear Coins, just check you haven't already got some or try the FSQ to see if you can win some.
I will post here once I have tried to confirm that they can be used. Won't spend my Gear Coins before, just in case!

 

Thank you very much, Nordais, for your dedication, i always count on you

The shop is full of good prizes, so i'm growing crops like cr4zy

Had good luck with the wheel and wish everyone the same!

 

What is the use of Sunscreen? Mill product only takes plants and other drop?

edit: I found it - change the piles...

so, 18000++ plants, no proplem of that...

 

Museum Clarification:

Where you can get Base Museum ?

• Baha Museum (Complete Beat The Heat Event)
• Main Museum (Tree of Wisdom Rune 600 Stars)
• Moonlight Museum (The Eerie Museum Level 1 Gold)
• Moonlight Museum (The Eerie Museum Level 1 Gold)

These base museum gives you 4 giver Slots. Each Museum can be upgraded upto 8 Slots, But it is required lots of Tools in your Barn

Slots 5 and 6 Requires:

• 10000 Bricks
• 4000 Roof Tiles
• 10 Power Drills (See Note)

Slot 7 and 8 Requires:

• Another 10000 Bricks
• Another 4000 Roof Tiles
• Another 10 Power Drills (See Note)

See Note:

You can only acquire Power Drills as Drop only from Harvesting Storage Houses I need to point this out to Newer Farmers or those that didn't know that

You only need 16 Museum Blue Prints upgrade a Museum to 8 Slots Just be cautious doing Museum FAQ Quests

Make sure you have sufficient stock of Bricks, Roof tiles , Especially Power Drills

At the moment you cannot get Power Drills from Shop, Farm Coin Shop, Events and FAQs....Only Harvesting Storage Houses (Arboretum, Manufactory and Menagerie)

 

You may buy Museum from Decorations shop, 399 BB. But it is limited offer.

 

All finished here.

I didn't spend my Gear Coins on Museum Blueprints, had enough in my Barn to upgrade my Museum. I only got 546 anyway! Off to spend them later when I have woken up a bit more.

 

Thank you, Northy, for doing the numbers. The cloud row has been done, so the Museum is not far off. I'm undecided about the blueprints, as I already have 72 in the storehouse. I must be frugal, as I don't tend to buy them. Perhaps I should, as it will help with my farm level.
