Cry Babies Event Strategies

Ah, that's right! I forgot about that! Hmmmm.... Might use the SSG on the trees for the first with this event

 

Thank you... guess I needed a tad more coffee (lol)

Suzy's super grow (the propeller item) adds to the harvest of trees. The mulch decreases the time to harvest. You can buy these with BB, win them, get them from farmer's quests and sometimes from fuzzy.

Its in the FAQs for the magic glade.

Here is the information, copied from the FAQs:
"What effects does the Magical Glade have?
The Magical Glade has more space for all sorts of items. One special effect is the little river flowing here: No need for buying water here! Watering your items is for free on this field! Also, the Magical Glade has positive effects on the stables, breeding and trees here: You will gain more EP here (for example animal stables give an extra 10%, Trees give an extra 5%... etc)."

In addition to the basic benefit, there is a rune that will further increase your chance of a bonus, but the glade itself gives you a slight increased chance of a breeding bonus. (note.. you have a slight chance of a bonus even on regular fields, but its small)

 

I already have almost everything I need for the event except the event specific items and the basic animals for breeding. I'll put some of those out tonight and raise them until BBD starts.

I hope to do the breeding the first day of BBD. Only breed enough pigs and sheep to get the piglets and lambs. Then breed other things. Put the trees out that night. Or if I start early enough... right away. Should be done with event in less than 24h. That's the kind of event I like!

 

I think this only refers to +10% EP for breeding pastures, not better skips unfortunately

 

@Mir: I'm almost sure there was an event requiring "tons" of breeding creatures and there wasn't a BBDay that time. But you may be absolutely right about a BBDay during every breeding event so far.

Is it my impression or rewards are so low that it's not worth the effort?

 

I suppose it depends on what level you are at. how many FSQs you have completed, how much of the TofW you have opened and how many GBs you have. I still need stars (I know, you probably have them coming out your ears) and I'm after all the Baha EP I can get. The event looks relatively easy for me and the BBD will be useful for other quests I have yet to complete. I also never turn down some CCs. I have the pears, paint palettes and animals for breeding so I'm pretty set for this one.

 

The cloud row giving a brownie is also nice

 

It will go well with the Brown Pig and Albino Bat

 

Relatively easy event, relatively low rewards. I'm not too thrilled with the cloud row, but... we may need all those brownies someday...

As I remember it... we've had event that required bred animals without a BBD. Pretty sure we've always had BBD with the breeding quests. Having breeding every month is relatively new.

 

Save for Wooly Pigs, I'm good to go...

 

Has anyione looked at the level required for cows milk? You cant even get this at level 32. So that means I cannot play all of level 2 fo teh challenge.

 

So... even if you had all the required breeding animals to donate you would still need to use 136 PF just to get the required piglets & lambs. 92 PF can be recouped in the rewards. Fairly similar to last breeding event.

BUT.. if you didn't have any of the breeding animals and had to breed all from base animals it would take 276 PF to complete (not counting any skips, twins, etc.) Still worth it considering the Browine from the cloud row, but quite a long payback.

 

For those who only aim at Cloud Row (as me), this should be a breakdown:
Brown Pig 9
Piglets 24
Brownies 4
Lamb 3
Pacifier 25
Corn 300
Wooly pigs 12
Goat Milk 4

Quite achievable, if not easy. Especially with (quite possible) BBD.
Having Brownie every 30h will certainly save me some Power Feed, on the long run.

In any case, good luck to you all.

 

In breeding to get the piglets and lambs you will probably get most if not all of the bred animals. Lot less PF than you think. Even without the rune but waiting for BBD.

WithBBD, the twins & the faster breeding runes, breeding cloud row (whatever it's called), PJelly and pheromones... it won't take long to do this event.

BBD used to be Sat & Sun. Then it shifted to Fri & Sat. Probably to accommodate the Aussies, since they're early risers. If I remember correctly BBD used to be just one day. But they keep adding more breeding quests...

For lower level players... I would do as much of this quest as possible, then concentrate any FSQs you might be interested in. Or sell bred animals.

 

Yes, I meant to say that but I forgot in the hurry of picking up my nephew at his judo training after he had a small accident. (He's ok, btw). I like that CR very much and I plan to have it. A big plus for me is that it's not themed.
But apart from that, as Sweet_Cassiopeia mentioned, it's only good to grab stars for newly and middle-level players. And I've seen lately much more EP, CC and Baha EP given. I'm also after every Baha EP I can get, but not at the expense of such requirements.
Mind you, I didn't compare PF investment vs. PF reward...

Anyway, good luck to everyone!!

 

@omadon, think I am doing the same as you..just going for the cloud row. Like you say it's relatively easy and there's no other decs to collect to complete it. Tbh I don't think the other rewards are worth using all my precious PF and time on! Least we can pick and choose which level we want to get to again with this one and I can relax after putting a lot of effort in to the Birthday event!Phew

 

My strategy - hope for a BBDay and then get it over with in as little time as possible. The lure of the fox stalls is nil for me since I have loads, but it's always nice to have BEP.

 

A mild challenge to me, and there is a lot of time so no hurry, milling the rubber into pacifiers 72 x 15 minites needs 18 hours and with mill subscription it is only 9 hours, and 54 rubber trees each needs 8 hours, 6 hours after turbo mulch, breading with the new rune and pink jelly can be done in 7 minutes each so I am going to use 12 so it is around 91 minutes if there is no skips, it is doable with in 15 hours, the skips are welcome and then back to normal farming until BBD comes, I was expecting the chameleon breading instead of this, but it seems BP changed there mind about it, and the photo provided by the mods shows the results of breeding during BBD, normally it is rare to get these results, but with the other breading rune and BBD results might be even better.

edit: I mean the new cloud raw, and I said new rune,sorry for that.

 

I think you must be hungry! Time for a sandwich?

 

Not that its much consolation, but you can to the first of all the levels without completing the whole thing. In the mean time.. try to level up.

what is your farmer name? We can send you EP givers to help you level up if we have it.
