Looks like the only way to get the new mill is to get to silver league. To do that, assuming we are not going to get any extra lanterns added to rush/daily/bonus compare to what we have already, we need to use distance efficient animals: top to bottom: 110, 113, 151, 152, 79, 80, 84, 50, 52, 55. Doing that we need to understand that we aiming for league and do not pay much attention to possible % of daily specials. As devs and admins keep telling us that getting just a 2-3 daily specials for whole event while my guildie got 10-20 for same event is totally ok with their random I prefer to go for grand prize and hope for decent amount of daily specials (min 10 for my mind is ok for whole event, and no, I do not consider myself greedy). Since we are promised 7980 lanterns for whole event + accidents but I do not count them because they unforecastable I expect avg lantern price to be around 798 lanterns per 1 daily prize. So far event + incidents gave me 6425, that means I am expecting 8 dailies (today is spring set selection kit 2nd time). Let's see what His Majesty The Random has for me
I will post update shortly.
Update: spend 6405 lanterns (20 left), jumped 171 distance, till the end of event expecting to get another 39-45 distances. Most dissapointing is that I got only 2 dailies. That's is very greedy random here
