    question about drop rates. is it only the toolbox that was reduced or were more things reduced as well like paper cranes, flyers, ect?

    Just tools. 

    Thank you 

    The reason I asked is I just harvested 9 orchids, 4 pigs, 10 fields, 19 chickens and only got 2 paper cranes. Each worth 1 point. 


    I am on the pigs / pig feed.  I will be on the cranes by mid-day tomorrow, and I will watch, but they are not supposed to be effected.

    I got one from corn today, so they're still dropping. can't speak to the rate, it's always been too low to measure reliably.

    It would have started in the next 30 minutes (2pm CET), except the server is going down for maintenance. Probably be active when it comes back up.

    Hello, excuse my intrusion.

    I'm from the Hispanic server. They noticed some change with the present update in the behavior of the silo and composter with respect to the toolboxes. Before they were 5 and 3 respectively, but now only 1.

    Thanks in advance and greetings to this community
    Hey @aleydy (HIS1) the amount of tool drops have been re-balanced and reduced according to every other building in the game. The prices for buying them were reduced as well from 990 gold to 390 gold. The amount of tools had to be adapted to the new situation in the game.

    @CuddlyFoxes what kind of re-balancing would this be exactly ?

    With the new machines being added, which require tool boxes when we activate them, we need more toolboxes than we used to

    GGS has re-balanced the drop rate, now 4-5 times lower than it used to be (silo and composter being the main buildings dropping tool boxes)

    In addition GGS also reduced the cost (gold) to purchase tool boxes.

    Lower drop rate and lower price: the intention is clear. GGS is facilitating their sale of tool boxes for those who want to use them, and has made sure that getting sufficient tool boxes by regular farming is now impossible  

    Very sneaky..... GGS you just made a lot of people unhappy once again

    @Byron Longford (AU1)  You are complaining because the event will start at midnight for you? Welcome to our world lol they pretty much all start at midnight for most of us (or 11PM), for once we have one starting in the afternoon... Woohoo!!  It is the 10th too. :)  Sorry it is midnight for you, I know that sucks, but your post sounds so hard-done-by, when usually you get events at the best times out of all of us.

    Here's what the Leprechaun looks like, so you know what to look for when you're pranked:



    When I clicked on him, he offered me 3 pots to choose from.  The one I chose gave me a "Leprechaun Treat". No idea what it was.

    Hey everyone :)

    Southern (US1) 

    Thank you :)

    You'll see a green "smoke" around the pranked building. :)

    The pot I chose showed that I have been pranked again.
    That's one of the 3 things that can happen, indeed. Now, you can find another leprechaun to get rid of the new prank. :)

    Thank you :)

    Something like this I guess (that field usually makes 180 almonds, not 90)
    But as soon as I clicked on the leprechaun I found (see Southern (US1)'s post above) , the field went back to normal

    alm

    Check the Event Cart in the parking lot.  At the bottom of the window, it will say "That pesky leprechaun pranked one of your buildings!" and there will be an arrow that will take you to the farm and/or highlight the building that has been pranked.  With animations ON, it's pretty easy to see.. There's a sickly looking green fog all around the building.  In NON-Animated mode, it's just a green highlight (but still pretty easy to see).

    A couple of things about the St Patrick's event.:


    1.  There is no clock to countdown the event!  We need one.


    2.  There is no way to see the rankings, which is a
    must-have when rank is important to the rewards that you get.  I reloaded and it was there.

    One of your buildings got a 100% boost. For me it went to apiary. Dunno if all building types can get this boost or not.

    Actually I got new prank on apple orchard which was ready for harvest. I collected apple by mistake and finished production of the building. But I wanted to find the leprechaun. Now I' m waiting to be pranked again. This event is very interesting. I wonder how long I have to wait for the next prank.

    See the post right above yours! It's very easy to figure it out and to find the 'affected building' - and afterwards I had no problem finding the pesky little creature  ;)

  • Thanks Southern (US1)

    The thing is simple, none of the buildings that Lester said have been pranked actually were pranked... Is this a prank on the prank? :s

    @RunsWivScissors (GB1) Thank you for posting the picture of the Leprechaun. It was very helpful. 

    Does anyone know when a building is pranked on a farm (say main farm) if the Leprechaun is hiding only on that farm or could they be hiding on any farm including co-op village? Also, if you open a pot and it is a prank... is there a Leprachaun to find to fix it?
