    I'm not 100% convinced it's devs fault when the execution fails.
    25/11-14 , 23/02-16 .. The end is coming and it will look like this .

They just returned 2x16 eggs today and they will be back with their second attempt when the event has already ended. Even if the experienced one brings back 17 eggs tomorrow, that'll make 49 and a ruined 2015 easter event for me.

    And what idiot decided that the event has to end when the easter holidays start anyway...

    Edit: Maybe I'm a bit too hasty, the dev diary isn't that clear to me: "phase1: Easter Quests will be deactivated. Started Easter (sub-)quests can still be completed, but no new weekly quest will spawn afterwards."
    Does that mean I can finish the whole quest chain, or only the subquest I started?
    Not sure why people complain about the 'unplanned' 5th quest chain disappearing. My 4th quest chain (and started subquest) also disappeared...
    At least I finally got my 50 eggs from very long search this morning around 8:30, but producing 300 sausages with 1 butcher in 30min was a no-go.

    So bolded part turned out to be not true. Again.

    "Only searches that finish before the activation of Removal Phase I have the chance to provide Stripy eggs". Its cool. Its OK. It makes sense.

    Why keep lying about it?

    So, some got to do an extra chain quest (if they were lucky or around the time) and some not... what's new with this game?

    The pvp aspect was decent, but only 1 item in the shop as a reward for this? expand please in future events.
    Im sure you are aware that with swapping BK/RB had the best drop rate of the adventures. So playing 1 player adventures was a choice for the lazy people not interested in team work. Choices are good. Also the fact that easy 1 player advs gave very high drops was great for new players. Has been different in the past. If I misunderstood you please correct me.

    The whole Expeditions part of the Merchant (like the feature itself really) seems unfinished. I mean only some buffs for gems - what is this - free to play?!

    I was stuck for days & days on the gather granite from Surprise Attack part of the quest. I was a lower level back then and had to wait to rebuild troops and find swaps for the loots. But it was exciting and FUN!!! And I think that's what we need again
    I liked Four Winds a lot.
    There was quite a lot of whine about the random in that quest chain back then. You dont have to look far to find the same about this event. If BB is taking notes it says: 'players want less random'..

    RB/BK/DB may well have had more as a roll, but it certainly didn't have more per hour. IOTP can be done in 28mins with rolls up to 225, so 56mins can = up to 450, How many RB/BK/DB can be played within 56mins? 1? bearing in mind guides hadn't been written for the MOD till almost the end of the event. 1 would be up to 101*3 = up to 303? per 55mins-1hour (and even then if you get a numpty go afk your done for)

    WOTS can be done in 36mins, up to 150 per time, 1hour 12 mins for up to 300, and your not relying on trade channel? your not at the mercy of an afker?


    Its also not for "lazy" people as you put it, It was sensible due to bottle necks with the multiplayer swapping and the delays it causes. But even so it would have been nice to have a alternative that could compete per hour with eggs, Multiplayers just couldn't do it this year.

    different in the past? 2014 dark priests was a very good option for new players.

    Odd Removal Phase I

    Ok, so removal phase one came and went, most seemed as specified in the information posts, just with a couple of oddities:

    1. Got a 5th Easter event quest become active.
    Managed the first part, produce 1k brew.
    High hopes on the second part as I had over ten explorers out seeking eggs on v.long searches

    From this dev diary thread

    So far about ten have returned with absolutely nothing between them...

    Is this just bad explorer luck or was the information wrong?
    Did other people get new Easter event quests?
