[X] My Assistant

As was very recently established as "tradition", the Loot & Harvest Moon rising in the horizon marks the start of the week-long Loot & Harvest Festival, a celebration of Snowflake, the Goddess of Loot & Harvest.

During the Loot & Harvest Festival you will randomly receive Festival Coupons for clearing arenas and RoBs. The chance is tied to the token droprate; on average, if you clear all of them during a day, you would receive around three. The coupons count as Tier 7 trophies but are not tradeable or sellable; the equipment you get from them can still be traded as normal.

The festival ends around a week from now, at midnight UTC at the end of Thursday, September 30th. There is no hand-in deadline for this event, the coupons are trophies and can be traded in whenever.

Note that the festival only takes place on Persistent.

The festival has now ended. Thanks for participating.

Drops so far after clearing all arenas and FSM when available:

Day 1: 1
Day 2: 1
Day 3: 0

I certainly wouldn't mind if they dropped more often

Snowflake only woke up today after binging on barley ale all weekend

Wow.

Got 2 on day 4 so not exactly overflowing, but you'll see, we'll get 10+ on the last day

Got 2 on day 4 so not exactly overflowing, but you'll see, we'll get 10+ on the last day

I got 1 3 2. But I know people who got 20+ in the first three days

Day 1: 0
Day 2: 0
Day 3: 0
Day 4: 0
Day 5: 1
I may be the most unlucky.

Hello everyone. this is my first time following this event.
so how do i trade festival coupon? i have 10.
do i need snowflake hath perk?
thank you.

The first two day i got nothing... cause i played little missing the event start.

Yesterday 4 with all erana, FSM and TT&T, today only two with the same excluting TT&T.

I think that from the next year on the drop rate can be just a bit more.

So drops so far are:

Day 1: 1
Day 2: 1
Day 3: 0
Day 4: 2
Day 5: 3
Day 6: 1
Day 7: 3
Day 8: 2
Day 9: 2

Things seem to be getting better but still below average. In the end there was no coupon explosion and numbers stayed below average all the way through. The end.

I got 1 3 2. But I know people who got 20+ in the first three days

Day 1: 0
Day 2: 0
Day 3: 0
Day 4: 0
Day 5: 1

Good luck pals, I still have faith we're gonna get our coupon explosion on the last days.

Hi, you go to Bazaar>The Shrine, then select your item, the kind of thing you want to shrine for, you pray and shrine the item. No need for any perk at all, just luck.

The thing is, it's not really exciting to get a few coupons for tier 7 magnificents. With the shortening of the schoolgirl arenas and the new two arenas, we can get 1, 3 or 6 T7 mags fairly easily every day of the year. For most people, the real event would have been selling them for 250K, or shrining 100 at once, and we know that isn't doable.

I think it would be more fun to change the festival drops to two non-tradeable items which have the same effects as bubblegum and flower vases, and increase their drop rate. Then people would get something they could get a blast out of using. We could get the T7s out of the arenas, using the festival ringoame and okonomiyaki to go faster. Non-tradeable would force people to actually use them and have fun.

I would like the coupon to be T8 (or T9 ), but with tradeable equipment.

I'd like to have the shrine trophies upgrade settings extended for festival coupons so that you could shrine somewhere between 4 and 8 festival coupons as a T8.

Day 1: 7

This is a good idea. But Tenboro would have to increase the levels of "Shrine Trophy Upgrades" (T6, T7 and T8), which currently only goes up to T5.

You do not play the last two arenas?

I wasn't suggesting changing the Shrine Trophy Upgrades for all trophies, just making a special case for the Festival Coupons.

The last two arenas take too much time for me. I normally wouldn't be doing Dances with Dragons. I have a reasonably fast internet connection (about 110-120 Mbps) but I only get about 1.6 - 1.8 turns per second on the schoolgirl arenas, 2.6 - 2.8 on the Flying Spaghetti Monster. On some REs where I start hoverplay immediately and never have to move the cursor or hit any buttons, I've gotten up to 4 turns per seconds

Results:

Day1: 14ar+2rob = 4
Day2: 14ar+2rob = 0
Day3: 14ar+2rob = 2
Day4: 14ar+2rob = 3
Day5: 14ar+3rob = 3
Day6: 14ar+2rob = 1
Day7: 14ar+7rob = 4
Day8: 14ar+7rob = 4
All: 21/139=15.1%

For reference, legendary drops:

dwd: day 1, 2, 4, 7
Any other arena: day 4, day 7
RE: day 2
Average: <1 /day
All on pfudor except lvl 225 and 250 (those on hard), 24 RE/day on pfudor. Also all were terrible.

The RNG I'm used to here. Amazing how literally every day but the first were below average. Will use these coupons sometimes later. I feel like RNG hated me too much this week.

Reckon we could get another week of it this year, and possibly some tweaks (either now if they're fast, or next year otherwise)?

- Doubled, tripled or even quadrupled drop rates: they're still pretty low and they could definitely afford to be more generous, considering it's still locked to arenas & RoBs only
- Consider allowing them to drop from REs (possibly instead of arenas/RoBs?) - this opens it up to more casual players
- In the future, it'd be cool to have trophies that only yield untradeable equips, but have more generous quality bonuses

In the end I got 27 coupons in total from doing all arenas + FSM daily, which exactly 3 coupons/day on average just like TenB said...
I don't note how many I got each day, maybe around 2-4 coupons except for the first day which I got only 1 from the 3 available SG arenas left when the event started...

Well, when noticing many got below average drop rate, I think I'm gonna be satisfied with mine...
Now, my only hope is that the shrine result will gives me more than HGC...

Good idea!

Good idea again!!

Bad idea.

... but have more generous quality bonuses

Excelent idea!!!

Bad idea.

On this one, I personally don't mind either way - I believe Tenboro is especially concerned with more generous equipment rates devaluing our already incredibly devalued equipment, but I personally think it would add more potential to combat wealth inequality. (In other words, if only 1% of equipments are valuable right now, and he doubles drop rates, all that happens is that a year from now, only 0.5% of equipments are potential upgrades and we'd have to repeat the process...)

However I also support a lot more untradeable stuff in general. FoS results being untradeable is a good example of why this can be important - the ultimate end-gamers can essentially 'sink' a ton of the economy's wealth and help keep prices normalized and high-value goods still valuable.

Only got 1 on the final day, was starting to wounder if I misread when it ended, Also I'm five tokens short of doing everything, don't think it possible to get 5 in the ~30min left.

4+2+2+5+1+3+1+5+1=24 Festival Coupon total
