    Hi,

    I read in another post that the drip tanks should be dropping as of now. I've harvest the meadow filled with Chameleon, cow and Donkey stables and the Glade filled with Trees, Peacock, Chameleon and Donkey stables an hour after the Chameleon Breeding event started. I've placed my trophies on the meadow and the glade before harvesting (even logged out and logged back in) before harvesting the fields and although I got plenty of other drops I didn't get a single Drip tank. Are they supposed to be (super) rare like the Queen Bee, Scrap Metal and such?

    My trophies were at 7% (Animal) and 12 % (Farmer).

    Just curious here :)
     
  2. Hello Sheriziya.

    The drip tanks were introduced into the game just over 2 hours ago:D. As they are only needed for the new Chameleon Production Pen and no other production at this time, they can be considered rare o_O.

    Can we assist you further?

    Just to chime in...Sheriziya- this happens with all newly introduced breeding animals and associated quests. It can be up to a week (or longer) before you have enough drip tanks to build a workshop. I remember quite a bit of time went by before I could make a chopstick factory or a cookware forge. Also, even though tools are part of the quest prizes, do not think that automatically means the necessary tool (in this case a drip tank) is included...it wasn't for me with the scrap metal. It will happen...eventually.

    My observation is that the drop rate seem to be correlated with the exchange value. The higher exchange value, the rarer the drop.

    To compare:
    Shovel EV 120
    Saw EV 120
    Drip tank EV 180
    Scarp metal EV 240
    Zen rake EV 240

    So maybe drip tanks will be a bit more common than scrap metal and zen rakes :) We will have to wait and see :)

    Thanks everyone, for all the information! I guess that explains why I didn't get any drip tanks, while I got enough other drops even thought the event was already an hour on the way when I harvested :)

    Just wanted to be sure nothing was wrong and I was being curious :D
