The Dicemoor Chronicles

Thank you -Päärynä11.

I just got 10 Dicer's Brew from a field of Vanilla! Figure if I do this five times a day and a longer crop overnight I might actually reach 200 - which I haven't so far!

 

You are wasting your time making those calculations. Forget the space, you should count how much you can get from one seed. Right now I am not having enough seeds to fill all large fields. Next round of dice, I should concentrate to get seeds to have something to grow.

There is several cloud rows giving +1 from stalls and at least one deco. There are similar rows and decos for trees as well.
Do not forget there is also overall revenue bonuses 100/200/300% for diamond slot, which gives more from all of those things.

 

For those who like to use animal feed and PF to speed up pens, don't bother with the normal feed with the Mock Cucas, it only takes 10 minutes off of the time. I am getting 1 hour 36 minutes with feed and water plus PF, and 1 hour 26 minutes with just PF and water.

Edit: I have just experimented with Stoat (which I have been feeding Stoat feed and PF since they were introduced!) and the Stoat feed does not make any difference! Wow! What a revelation! For me, anyway, I am sure everybody else realised this but from now on no more animal feed if I want to speed things up am going to use PF!

So much PF wasted over so many years!

 

14 day event - under 1 day - better CR already running... Now just RELAX

 

Has anyone found a strategy that's working well to get enough drops to play the dice game? Particularly without burning through tons of SG? I've been doing long crops (Saguaro and Bonnet Cactus) on small fields, but I'm not getting anywhere close to enough drops to play 20 games per day.

 

I haven't used any SG on the Baha plantation for drops. I plant long crops overnight (last night was Lab Lab beans) and during the day I'm planting crops that fit my harvest schedule.

I also have lovely friends and neighbors who have sent drops. They are much appreciated!

I've sent you an event drop.

We have almost 2 weeks to do the event, which averages out to needing to completed approximately 6 tasks per day. I think as we go along and get rewards for additional trees, seeds and stables, it will be easier to reach those task requirements. For now, I still think of it as similar to those initial stages of events where you are building seeds and making early progress.

Best wishes to everyone that we all reach our goals!

Lots of strategies available for this one and I like that!

 

We're in Arizona now. It's warm...okay, that's an understatement. And I've started this event. I think it's easier than the FAQ explains, but it sure has a lot of moving parts.

 

I am growing veges (habanero or bok choy) with essence of wisdom -6% / tiki timer -20% and healing ointment -4% ; means I have 30% less time even before water and manure! Two of those are in silver slots and tiki timer doesn't need any slot!

 

Congratulations.
Cloud row 1 achieved here too.
Good luck to everyone on the seed bag hunt.

Tip: If you are chasing a flush, it is worth taking an extra die right at the start, as it will stay with you on all rolls.

 

@anki74 and IpsiDei, what size fields did you use? 2x2, 1x2, 1x1, or CF?

 

2x2 fields and Suzy's

The baby farm and the main farm have both reached a clow row, several trees and stables, but never enough drops for a 20 dice game. Both have also had various crop bonus effects in use.

 

I've been using the CFs, maybe I'll switch to the regular 2x2. I haven't used any crop bonuses yet, neither the event ones I've won nor regular (Jack 'O, etc.). Hoping to win another Jack 'O from Piccolos (I have 64, putting them out 4 at a time ) before activate the two I have.

 

Good afternoon (translator = Local 1:50...AM) from Finland!

Luckily my girlfriend noticed in time that the more important CR for us has already been achieved,

so we don't really want to go all out for the second one, of course there are 2 Piccolos there, but "unluckily" something useless comes out of there 90% of the time.

 

Both cloud rows are in use.

The dice seem to be missing number three, as I'm short of Bug-eyed shrubs seeds (0) and rolls have been used up since today.
Let's grow until tomorrow then only Swampy drakes (224).

 

A couple of suggestions:

1. There's no need to preserve the crop harvest bonuses for later, since you'll best use them once you have enough seeds (41) to plant on the maximum number of 2x2 plots you can have (using the bonuses on smaller plots, no matter what buffing you're using -either CAC, +300%, +200%, +100%-, will yield less crops overall; output is maximized using exclusively 2x2s).
2. Instead, it's useful to preserve the mock cuca and the mock graviola harvest bonuses for when you get to have a large amount of mock cuca stalls or mock graviola trees, for obvious reasons.
3. Covering the Baha Plantation with trees (ideally, if you have it, with auto-harvest) does the trick to get enough daily drops, at least for me. I apply turbo-mulch to all mock graviolas whenever I pass by and to some specific trees.

The real problem for me so far has been getting enough seeds to plant from the mini-games. It increases over time once you've gotten most of combinations right. ---> So, it's better to use the crop harvest bonuses when you get the 41 seeds needed while you're still sure you'll have those seeds.

I hope this helps.

Best of lucks.

 

My strategy is to start with longest crop, which will be ready when event starts (or soon after that). After that I have mainly planted vegetables on small plots using tiki timer, which speed up baha vegetables 20% for 6 hours and water and manure. You cannot buy it, but you can ask somebody to donate it to you, if you do not have them. It is bonus which to not require slot.

I moved my 3 Howie Donuts to my plantation when I started to plant vegetables. I also have 4 Mock Graviola trees there - they usually give only one drop. Rest of the plantation is filled with small fields. If you do not have your statues on Tree of Wisdom, you should place them on plantation.

There is cloud rows which give better drop chance. I am not sure if there is any other decorative item than Sweet Dormouse Residence which give better drop chance (that pet is on Renzo's prizes). This far I have not used any bonuses like Drop item bonus 20% (24h, gold slot) or Peanut Butter Cup 5% (2h, gold slot).

Magic trees and neighbours gift are also a great help. I have only one game to play today and I'll get drops for that after I harvest my Bok Choys later today. I would say there is no need to use the longest crops, I usually grow something around 10-14 h long crops using water and manure or even shorter ones without manure. I usually choose crop which is ready when I estimate to be back to harvest.

And I do not have cloud rows yet I have plenty of event stables and trees.

 

On behalf of MeadowCrossing: she has problems with the internet and won't be able to communicate here till the weekend.

I'm out and about a lot at the moment and trying to play the event. Haven't read everything yet, so just playing it by ear and see where I end up. Fortunately we have two weeks. Happy weekend every one!

 

If anyone needs a Tiki Timer, please either post here or send an IGM to me and I will be happy to send to you.

My games for the day were nicely balanced with trees, stables and both seeds.

With this morning's harvest, this is what my event progress looks like:



Minor amounts of ingredients used for feed but this gives a fair enough evaluation.

34/80 Tasks completed.

 

Good going Pups! You are ahead of me on all but the Cucas.

I am currently at 31/80 but I am hoping to finish the day at 33/80 at least. What I am pleased about is that I have most of the combinations of dice except four Flushes so quite happy with that.
Good luck all!

 

The rewards shown in the FAQ are not 100% correct, ie the Full House table is all wrong compared to the in-game table, Flush rewards show wrong numbers, etc. So for now, it's probably best to not rely on the FAQ to make choices about the available rewards
