Problem with Camping Event

I am doing third mission from the Event which is to collect paw prints and I did not get any in my last four field harvests.
I did wheat overnight and got zero then did corn twice and special rose seeds but none of paw print got collected. Is there some problem or bug in the event??? I got few yesterday but today none...Please fix it. Thanks.

    I have done 15 field with roses, and only got 30 pow print. Corn give from 0 to 4 on 5 field level 5. It is random and I think this time it is harder to get pow print then last time. Maybe it is because I got a higher level. (Spesial wheat give me 2 to 10 on 5 field. )

    Is it just me or are the paw prints dropping much, much slower. I am lucky to get 1 or 2 out of 5 fields. My co-op mate also noted that the paw prints seem to be very slow in coming. :(

    I thought they were supposed to make the drops better, not worse. ?(

    No not only you. It is harder to get pow print. But I have got to level 63 last time I was on 52 (I think). Maybe it is the reason.

    And I think humus helps, i got 4 on 5 field with corn when I have use humus.

    I didn't have this problem getting through the logs??

    I wonder if it is because they changed the drop rate for the magic beans??? They want us to spend gold for them??

    I have tried humus, and tried rose seeds. Not much luck.

    I will just keep plugging along, ugh!!

    I got logs quick. But I have big trouble with pow print. I have tried roses, 15 field 30 pow print only. Wheat 5 field few pow print. Now I got 5 pow print with corn and humus.
    I think like you on beans. But it is early in the event so we have to work hard to get pow print. :-)

    It is still early. I just would like to finish this task today so I can get a jump on the cow feed. But we still have plenty of time. so good luck to everyone on collecting those paw prints. :)

    OK wait a minute. I don't think you need to stress too much. The event is running less than 24 hours now and you are already to task #3. There is 6 days for the event.

    Also, last task could be bought off with dollars if you really do not manage. Where's the fire? ^^ I am still in task 2 :)

    Paw prints are dropping ridiculously slow on my farm and others in my cooperative have also voiced the same complaint. It's becoming more trouble than it's worth!

    No fire. But I have a many apple, so i start with pow print 08 a.m norwegian time. :) Before I got pow print easy, but not to day.

    I know, no fire. Believe me I am laughing at myself. I am just used to getting a better drop rate. After 4 hours of plugging away at it I only have a little over 100. Usually this task takes me 6 hours to complete. So at this rate 12 hours.

    I know this is not a problem for me but, this might become a problem for those who normally struggle with these events if the drop rate has dropped (at least in fields).

    I finish now, and use 12 hour this time. Before 6 or 7 hours.

    I am having no problems with corn--My usual crop that produces pieces. and i am sure that in the remaining 6 days left of the event i can finish.

    The drop rate seems to have picked up a little. Still slow though. Was just frustrating that for 5 fields I would get 1 or none, no matter what I planted. Now I am getting 1 or 2.
    Still plugging away. :D

    Definitely not a fix. I thought the drop rates were supposed to improve. I have dropped from probably a 60% drop rate for the paw prints to less than 20%.

    Very slow drop rates. Only one paw print came out from four fields of wheat. One to two, sometimes none, paw prints from five fields of corn. :( Is this how they're supposed to be?
  • ElizabethKElizabethK Posts: 519

    Didn't use to be, but they fixed the drop rates.

    Unfixed them please hehe. If paw prints are hard, I wonder how much harder it would be to go looking for maps at step 5.

    Directly copied from the Architect announcment:
    All premium seeds (roses, sunflowers, rice, beans) can now also drop event objects that can appear in the fields.
    All premium seeds now have a greater chance than normal seeds to drop items. This is particularly true for event objects sown when the corresponding event is running (as rice -> Asia event).
    Furthermore, all premium crops now have special drop rates under certain conditions:
    - Roses: Very good drop rate in all events, optimal in long events such as the Easter event
    - Sunflower: Very good drop rate in all events, particularly overnight
    - Magic Beans: Very good drop rate in themed events (camping, fairy tales, Asia), optimal while the fairytale event is running, good drop rate in other events
    - Rice: Very good drop rate for themed events, optimal during the Asia-events, good drop rate in other events

    The last task of the Asia-events is re-adjusted. Due to the fact that many players were unhappy with this task, so we have increased the drop rate of the cranes and adapted how the cranes are placed. Overall, this task should now be better adapted to the different levels and fall a little easier than before.

    The new quantities required for the cranes task are:
    1000 for Level 16-18
    1200 for Level 19-27
    1500 for Level 28-42
    1800 for Level 43-54
    2000 for Level 55-999


    I didn't see anything about the pawprints getting easier or harder. It does state that the premium seeds are having a better drop rate. GUYS: over 5 days left of the event and you are at the 3rd task of 6. You will finish if you keep at it.

    I know I will finish the event, I always have with plenty of time. However, this change will make it much harder for those who normally have a hard time.

    If people think the drop rate was slow for the cranes they will definitely complain about this. for 10 fields of corn I received a whooping 1 paw print.

    And I planted about 20 rose seeds for a whooping 2 x 10 paw prints, that wasn't an increased chance.

    I started this thread primarily to see if others were having the same issue. Secondly, I do want it brought to GGS that the drop rate is really insane.

    It is going to take me 2 to 3 times as long for this one task, and for people who normally need over a day to complete this one task, they will have an almost impossible chance of completing the whole event. I think the drop rates needs to be readjusted not for my sake but for everyone's.

    Sorry, roses are a bust for me this time. Out of 10 fields, only one coughed up paw prints. Rose seeds are too dear to waste in this manner.

    That is how I feel. Drop rates did not get improved at all. Even planting roses didn't help. Out of 5 fields I only got 1 track. And special seeds didn't work at all. Just wasted time to plant wheat to get more at once and still one field with 10 tracks. The rest were just regular harvest and not even water came out.

    Well it truly is random - 6 wheat fields gave me 4 tracks, and 6 rose fields also gave 4 tracks - I'm at 120 paws after 2 harvests.

    Same feeling as Hodor3.
    5 fields of special cabage gave me 80 tracks
    5 fields of wheat gave me 40 tracks
    5 fields of roses gave me 30 tracks...

    For me the drop rate did not change...

    But 6 fields of Rice only gave me 1 drop of 15 tracks.

    I did finish in ~12 hours when I normally can do this task in under 6. I am glad it isn't this bad for everyone.
