This event is not the worst event in history! And thus it has broken the trend of getting worse and worse! I guess I am thankful for that.
It has no shuffleboard, YAY!
Other than that there seems to be not much difference to the previous event: more quest, (but single task) instead of fewer double task. Whatever.
this time we need a few (but really few) lvl 1 buildings again, something like 15 WS and 15 Factories. Kinda boring and annoying (it makes ignoring the event completely, but still finishing harder lol), but no big deal.
Daily prizes: Same old (well that bad version of it: no time boosts, no Wishing Wells, only some cannon fodder troops and a 20 KP instant (seriously would a 30 KP have been to insanely powerful?)), except for a new Orc building, guess that´ll be my day, make an Orc farm some time
That´s the only fun thing I can come up with anyway.
Grand Prize: You only need 3 set buildings for max T2 production, the other 2 are junk and produce nothing at all. Nice with a set for a change, and completely fail proof (as long as you finish the quest line to the 4th Waypoint). You get 2 useful buildings from the questline, the 3rd part is the first Grand Prize, which you are guaranteed to get as well if you manage the quest for the other 2 parts. The second grand prize is the 20 KP instant (also still guaranteed). The rest of the grand prizes is utter junk 14 more of them (containing 1 carting library and 2 supply instants)! So best completely ignore them, you´ll get some of them automatically, but nothing worth clicking on. So well one can simply focus on the dailies, get some resource one is short of if necessary (Seeds, Mana, Orcs, Population (although rather poor pop)) and otherwise some troop instants or the 20 KP instants (they really do what they can to make it feel cheap) and be done with it.
