Not sure where I got them but I had like 170.

Manual clicking explores in the HH seem to be a massive stamina drain, using apple cider/APs give good returns though.

I need a sanity check. I'm 99/95/96/87 and am on the run up to open the tower (once I get my grapes tonight). Do I spend my next perk points on Double Prizes 2 or on Artisan 3? Is the extra 20% crops worth it over the extra 15% silver I'll save?

I managed to get the necklaces from Mythical Chest 01’s from tower 77 but realise that’s not going to help everyone.

I’m maxxed out on nets and just spent 1000 in PC, so painfully slow. Exploring was even worse, I did a couple of clicks in the haunted house but just left it alone for now. Maybe later today I can get some candy and complete some quests.

I could conceivably get to tower 77 by Monday, but I agree, right now it's just to slow to explore.

I've done all the event quests so far and nothing major to write home about. Decent chunk of OJ and such but pretty whatever so far.

Just a heads up, one of the new crafting items requires Orange Gecko's so double check before you hit craft.

Is there any reason to do those crafts unless you are one of the crazies that are trying to master them? Haven't been needed for the quests yet.

You're just too awesome.

The total OJ from the event quests is more than my inventory. So that's a pretty big deal. Plus like half as many nets & lemonade as OJ.

It's making a huge difference for me. Probably not going to get through all the extra resources today.

I'm an endgame player and mastering the two new items is absolutely absurd and I won't be doing it.

I just blindly mashed craft on the witches brooms not really thinking. Ooops. I thought I was making regular brooms or something.

Today I'm going to start exploring in earnest - I have an inventory full of OJ (~1300), and 500+200+200 in pending quest turn ins. Thank you for the warning on geckos, that's the 500 turn in. I have been saving them all week to be able to do it all inside the bonus. (Doing a few hundred OJ/day to not void any.)

Still missing one mailbox password but the hinted ones are nice. Were all passwords done like this, through puzzles or riddles? I always thought it seemed odd there was just a big list of unrelated passwords.

Anyway, passwords from the quests, in case anybody doesn't want to do them themselves:

First billion crop row ✅
First level 6 pet ✅
First 99 (farming) ✅
Grand master fancy pipe ✅
Second 99 (fishing) later today ✅

Event is good.

I’ve also pretty much maxed out my orchard for my inventory space right now. I can just buy 10 trees a day to keep up.

Just put 450ish large nets into pirates cove. Finished off 2 grand masteries which brought 13x nets from 84m to 89m, netted me 79 more large nets from the chests which I also tossed in. Now sitting on 3.9bn silver up from 0.021bn silver (so including 500m from two GM's.)

It was a good day.

Now to try to grind through 1300+700 oj's. :shepface:

To put it in perspective, I went from where you're at to 99x4 and all relevant pets at 6 within a single event, but I'd also timed it up so Pirate's Cove would unlock right when it began, and had to use an auto-clicker once I ran out of Cider for exploring. poo poo goes quick.

Just got 25bil from churning my nets, curious how much I'm gonna make from my 1.7k orbs. Hoping to get the 100b Storehouse upgrade, then dump whatever else into Tower.

I feel like I'm moderately lucky in some things and titanically unlucky in others.

I got a gold potato (for whatever I need it for) after about maybe 10k potatoes?

Meanwhile I'm at 70k sand and 700 skulls and still don't have the jundland desert emblem.

I’m close to unlocking the pirates cove but I’m stuck on bacon lol.

I didn’t buy the pig farm because I wanted to save the exp for the event. Turns out I didn’t actually need it!

How much bacon do you need for Pirate's Cove? I've been feeding mine to the WW to get a head start on gold leafs, but maybe I should stop doing that.

I think part of the answer to your question is also that rice is a somewhat recent release and beets were top dog for a while.

I grab 50x mega beet seeds whenever they're there and grow them asap via grape juice, supplementing with rice for the balance.

not yet, but presumably they'll be adding more tiers so if there's any particular item dumps you can do without selling them for pennies/voiding them you might as well just keep handing them in

Personally I'm just voiding stuff, but I'm also only using my stocks of Arnold Palmers and ciders. Clicking seems inefficient, but I haven't checked if getting spooked gives the same XP as a click of 24 candies or whatever.

Candy corn is worth a decent amount though!

There is a new questline for people at Tower Level 120 and above. I'm only at T110, so I don't know what all it entails, but it seems it requires a lot of Eggs, Bugs, and Freaky Pictures.

Same. I'm going to go for T120, though, not because of the quest necessarily, but because having it as a quest requirement seems to suggest that the T120 Artifact bonus should be arriving soon.
