Another buying Red Candy Canes

Throwing my hat into the ring here because I REALLY want lots of pretty twinkle lights, but these meteors seem to hate me! :rofl: Figure it will be more efficient to just buy them - so offering a good price which I won’t change unless I see plinths starting to sell them cheaper regularly: 315c.

Edit: Desperate times call for desperate measures: sold some of my lucent stash, 200k in basket now. :wink:

Elysian Fields, Alder, easiest portal at TNT, basket up near the free rock plinths. I’ll try to keep coin in it best I can, though I’ll be out of town next week.

Nobody seems to be selling, and nobody sold me any at that price… I really want more twinkles than I can get hunting since I’m not too good at it, so:

500c each

300,000k in basket

Sell, please? :pleading_face:

I may be doing a snowball hunt later today. If anyone wants to come along to make some extra coin from Paka.

I’m hoping there’s a hunt at 5pm UK time today, I should get an hour or so to play at that time!

Wouldn’t mind a normal hunt (they still have the hats right?)

No idea on the hats. I wont be home at that time but hopefully someone else will lead a snowball hunt.

I would be up for that, these snow abominations seem to dislike me too, maybe i have better odds with a group!

Thanks!! :smiley: I’ll focus on mining today and earning more to get more coin in there - even at this price, and even if I were to hunt perfectly and be lucky (I’ll still do a little for the fun :wink: ) it will be more efficient for me going this route.

Won’t be any refills next week but once I get back I’ll keep it going for awhile - I want those twinkles more than anything to decorate with now! :smile:

I made one mass craft of shadow violet twinkles and then realised that making dark colours wasn’t the best idea ever as I can hardly see them, lol. You can have them if you like?

Thats a price i wouldnt pay haha. Really high price imo xD. Thing is, Ive been to a couple of hunts so far - not many people hunting. Idk if its the event in general or people are busy or if the canes rewarded aren’t enough.

I mean - ive been hunting for about an hour now and i got like 60 red canes. For someone with very very limited time these days, this is not enough for even a decent amount of colored fairy lights. Personally, i go for more colors as opposed to more of the same color (so bulk > mass craft) - more costly. To make the lights you saw in the other topic, i used canes from last year’s event. We didn’t even mention the green canes yet.

@wakeNbake - Hey thanks!! :smiley: Bet I could find a use for sure, maybe in darker areas. I’d be happy to pay if you want to put em on a plinth! :slight_smile:

@RedY3 - Yeah, I don’t want to gripe more since I did at Gleambow, but I don’t think the balance on the red cane recipes is good. Twinkle lights in particular - those are something that should be easy enough to make to spam, so that we can make our builds beautiful with them. 10 red canes for ONE twinkle?

Devs - I know y’all are off on a well-earned holiday now, so this would be for next year I know, and I don’t want to be a pest so won’t tag, just will leave this by in case any of you wander by: PLEASE consider changing that recipe! Either give us one using the green ones (getting those is fine, I could spam hunt those all day) or reduce it to 1 or 2 red canes.

Changing the recipe wont help now but the devs can walk around the worlds and make it rain canes - a happy hour every day during the event xD. Sure would drive prices down xD.

If it were 10 greens instead of reds, I’d be ok. :slight_smile: I often see packs of the hat mobs, I wouldn’t mind wandering around hunting, would be fun! The meteors though, even if it went perfectly, yeah, I still wouldn’t get that much, and I’m not good at it so that isn’t going to happen - hence my good price here. :wink:

It does say something that I hit a bunch of the busiest shopping areas and couldn’t find any for sale in the search this morning. People are getting them, but they’re just too valuable to sell for most I think.

Im on same page… recipes generally… new ones more than older are too “grindy” once again i gotta put my hat down for this event…
You get around 5 canes average per meteor. Its nuts that mass craft reguires 90… even 180

Well since the cat’s out of the bag, I agree on this drop rate. It’s absurdly low for the amount of canes we need for the recipes. We shouldn’t be getting 1 red cane as a reward for T5 meteors. Those mighty and elite spitters are meat shields lol. Please at the very least put a minimum of 4-5 canes as a reward for completing a meteor (though I think we should get more)

IMO seasonal events shouldn’t be super grindy but a fun break from regular boundless with nice time limited rewards. Love the oorties and twinkles but something needs to change, recipe or drop rate.
