How does an entire cake fit inside a twig? Immersion broken.

We should have had to trade the twigs in to a quest-giver or something.

Also more exp potions, and fewer collection items would be better.

And better drop rates.

 

[WhyN0t]

I don't like the drop rates for xp potions.

	Potion of Minor Wisdom (1% xp)	0.53%
	Potion of Some Wisdom (2% xp)	0.32%
	Potion of Profound Wisdom (25% xp)	0.11%

It's too random. 0.11% for 25% xp, 0.32% for 2% xp and 0.53% for 1%. Why is there such a big difference between the xp of the potions? Some people will get 100% xp from this event and others only 1%.

 

[Abydos1]

Not to mention them completely skipping out on offering older Winter event drops like snowballs and icicles but hey we'll see that in the years to come...

 

[Quick Shot.]

why not add chests from some last years valentine's day?

Yeah, much better if you traded 10 twigs in at a time and got 10 random items but no xp potions, then on the 10th batch 1 item is a 1 2 or 5% xp, one item is a 5 or 10% and one is a 25%

 

[Killer Bonnie]

Can we also have I think its 3 different types of snowballs and icicles as these are from past events and there are people who havent been able to complete them

Best chance for a specific player to get 100% xp is one in a trillion based on above %.Distribution is more than alright.
Anyway, i agree that more of all exp potions should exist though, and less than collection cards

?? a quick sim of 500k trials hit it twice; I'd like to see the math pointing at 1:1T.

You are right, had the calculation in mind before and not on paper.Actual possibility of hitting at least 4*25%exp = p(1in100 | p(1in99) | p (1|98) | p(1|97)
9.521% * 9.430%* 9.340% * 9.249% = 0,00007756% .Far better than what I mentioned but still the argument with WhyN0T is the same. Distribution is well fixed, and the estimative range of exp, that each player gets is small ==> fair between players.
I would prefer to increase all exp% potions probabilities holding the same distr though by minimizing collections' items.

 

[WhyN0t]

I think the exaggeration was obvious. Maybe 4 pieces won't drop, but enough players will get 2 of them and others will only get one of 1%.
The idea behind my comment was that the lower xp potions should not be 1 and 2%, but 5 and 10%.

“It’s bigger on the inside”. You might say it’s ‘tardised

I'd also like to know if older snowballs etc will be able to be obtained as well.

It won't happen I already confirmed it with the CM they said it will be implemented in the years to come...

can u edd old valentinas chests to this event? christmas chest unussles i think, but valentinas we cant get in xmas sale even, why?

there is no valentines chest so you cant add it

 

[Bob Baumeister]

On average every 10th player will get one of the 25% potions. If I am not mistaken 1 in 10,000 players will get two of the 25% potions. Whether thats "enough players" I leave to others.
You were still exaggerating I guess

I agree that 5 and 10 % potions would be nicer than 1 and 2 %, but I won't complain about the 25% one.

 

[Ristorian]

Is it possible to add the quest items required to complete the Winter Treasure questline from 2018 to the Union Pacific shop?
The questline is available during the same timeframe as all the other Winter Events questlines after all

 

[Beefmeister]

why in the world is drop rate for quest items so big...jesus christ. even with 7% or less it's a big surplus of them
it shouldn't be more than 7%. I GET ONLY QUEST ITEMS NOW. check the drop rates for every event of this kind you do and see the drop rates and get a correct value ffs

80 opened - 34 quest items, 8 trading cards. it's ridiculous. you need 12 quest items to finish the quest
