Dear Kings and Queens,

QG_StP-2020_PADDY_-frei.png

Top o' the mornin' to you! St. Patrick's Day is fast approaching and we need your help to prepare for the celebrations! Paddy McCharms is already on his way to help guide you through the preparations.

The St. Patrick's Day Event will start on January 5th and run until January 27th.

Mechanics​

You'll need to complete Paddy's quests to earn the Pots of Gold needed to navigate your way through the event. There will be 35 rush quests and 22 daily quests. Of course, you'll also be able to pick up 100 free Pots of Gold each day from the Daily Bonus Quests.

MainWindow.png

Opening the event window will show you an overview map of the event town. To the left of the river is marked the festival and the shipyard, and to the right are a number of factories which each produce items you'll need for the festival. Selecting any of these factories will initiate a production, and when complete you can select it again in order to collect the production. This will add Shamrocks to your stockpile!

Managing.png

Be vigilant, however, as you will need to transport these Shamrocks to your festival using the ship. Selecting the ship will initiate a voyage to collect and transport the Shamrocks from your factories to your festival. Only when fully collected is the cycle complete!

MAX.png

If you have built up a stockpile of Shamrocks and wish to use them all quicker, you can check the 'max' box. This will automatically invest the maximum amount of Shamrocks in a factory with just one click. You can also spend your Pots of Gold to speed up your productions, and skip 2, 4, or 8 hours at a time.

manager2.png

Now that you have all of your factories working, it is time to hire managers for each of them. Select the top hat to hire a manager; this will automate the production of Shamrocks, and also improve the output of the factories. The festival and shipyard can also each have a manager so you can automate the entire process. Level up the managers for even better efficiency!

Tasks.png

You now have all the resources you need to start completing some tasks! You can find three tasks at a time at the top of the event window. Once a task is complete, you will be prompted to collect it. Completing and collecting tasks will increase your progress toward the Grand and St. Patrick's Prize. For more information on your tasks, click on the grey arrow to the right of the tasks bar.

ChestAtEndOfTown.png

Each time you complete and collect a task, a new one will fill its place until all the tasks in that town are complete. At the latest, you can now move on to the next town by selecting the 'Next Stage' button in the bottom right. You will also have the chance to bag some extra prizes from the end-stage chests! One chest can be opened for free, but if you open all 6 you will win the bonus prize in the top right. Be wary though as each chest will increase in cost, so make sure you have enough Pots of Gold to open the chests you want!

PotsOfGoldChests.png


In addition, new this year is a discount for opening all chests at once! The discounted amount will always stay the same, so the more chests you open with this new button, the better the discount!

Discount.png


Too much information to process? Do not despair! In the very first event town, we have significantly improved the tutorial part. Also, you will only need 1 million Shamrocks to proceed to the next town after you finish the first one. Remember: Shamrocks are required to move from one town to another, the tasks are not necessary.

You don't need to collect all tasks in order to proceed and unlock a new town. Starting from the second event town, as soon as you gather 8.4 quadrillions of Shamrocks, you can click on "Continue" to advance and still keep your grand prize progress (in other words, the task progress). Once you've selected your stage prizes, the town progress will be reset and this gives you the chance to start the production over and earn yourself even more Grand Prizes.

This button will light up as soon as you have 8.4Q Shamrocks

Rewards​

The Grand Prize​

No St. Patrick's Day celebration is complete without a shiny new building to add to your city! This year we have a number of new buildings for you to enjoy. The Grand Prize is the brand-new Druid Hut! On level 9, the Druid Hut provides the following bonuses:
Druid Hut 5x4: Level 9
Bonus: Coins, 9-17% Attack for Attacking Army, 14-20% Defense for Attacking Army, 3 Forge Points, 1 Archdruid Hut Upgrade Kit Fragment
Bonus when motivated: 4 additional Forge Points
Random reward 1: 1 8h 100% Coin Booster (50%) or 1 8h Mass Coin Rush (50%)
Random reward 2: 5 Fragments of a Tree of Patience (70%) or 5 Fragments of a Tree of Vitality (30%)

For a little extra boost, you can use the Archdruid Hut Upgrade Kit. You can receive the Kit from the St. Patrick's Event Prizes – an extra line of rewards, available for a one-time investment in the game, as fragments later on in the Grand Prizes, you get a chance having it in the chests after each town and the Druid Hut level 9 produces one Fragment every day!

After the upgrade, the Druid Hut retains very similar bonuses, providing a worthwhile uplift to some of the stats, such as Forge Points, army boosts, and chances to produce Druid Tree fragments. The chances to win Coin Boosters and Speedups remain unchanged.

More rewards!​

On its higher levels, the Druid Hut will produce fragments you can use to assemble Druid Trees – small evergreen buildings that provide a noticeable bonus of their own and produce even more useful fragments or items! They can also be won during the Event!

Tree of Silence (100) 1x1Tree of Patience (100) 1x1Tree of Vitality (100) 1x1
Bonus: Coins, Attack for Defending Army (up to 4%), Attack for Attacking Army (up to 2%)
Bonus when motivated: 4 Forge Points (50%) or 2 Fragments of a Renovation Kit (50%)
Bonus: Coins, Defence for Defending Army (up to 3%)
Bonus when motivated: 1 Forge Point (75%) or 2 Self Aid Kits (25%)
Bonus: Coins, up to 2% Attack and Defense for Attacking Army
Bonus when motivated: 1 Forge Point, 1 Fragment of a One Up Kit

It will allow you to choose a base or upgrade for any of the previous years' Grand Prizes, including the Celtic Farmstead, the Druid Temple and more!

Some players reported, that they don't have the St. Patrick's Prizes available in the shop. Please open the event, then the Next Prizes window and click on "Unlock". You should be forwarded to the shop and see it in there. If this did not work, please contact the support team, so we can have a closer look at it. Thank you!

Dear Kings and Queen,
Today we introduce some balancing changes to the Event.
  • The required amount of Fragments for Golden Druid Hut Upgrade Kits has been increased to 150.
  • The amount of Fragments for this Kit in the Grand Prizes and the chests after finishing a town has been increased 10x.
  • The Golden Druid Hut Upgrade Kit has been renamed to "Archdruid Hut Upgrade Kit".
  • The same renaming has happened to the Druid Hut level 10.
  • We have added a new production to the Druid Hut Level 9: It now produces 1 Fragment for the Archdruid Hut Upgrade Kit every day!
  • The 20 Pots of Gold in the Grand Prizes has been increased to 50 Pots of Gold.
Thank you all for your feedback, we really appreciate it, especially since we introduced a new general event mechanic (Golden Upgrade Kits) and saw your response to this. We hope we could make you happier with these changes, so please tell us what you think here!

Dear Kings and Queens,

The St. Patrick's Day Event is over here on Beta, and we would like to share with you some adjustments that will be applied for the upcoming Event's release on Live markets. Please find the list of changes below (note that the first two points also apply to Beta):
  • We have rebalanced the Druid Huts random production. The amount of Fragments for the Druid Trees stay the same, however the building will no longer produce Fragments for the Tree of Silence. The Tree of Patience Fragments have a 70% chance and the Tree of Vitality Fragments a 30% chance.
  • We have improved the stats of the Tree of Silence as it is now more rare. The Tree will provide a 2-4 Attack Boost for your Defending Army (instead of a flat 3%), a 1-2% Attack Boost for Attacking Army, and [randomly] 4 Forge Points with a 50% chance or 2 Fragments for the Renovation Kit with a 50% chance as well.
  • We have increased the value of the St. Patrick's Prizes a lot. Some of these changes include an increase of the Pots of Gold and removal of Fragments for the Epic Selection Kit (full Kits instead). Thank you for providing the feedback, that you fell like it was not rewarding enough to get. We hope you are now satisfied with it!
  • We have removed the Druid Tree Selection Kit as a reward, since with the changes to the Tree of Silence it only contained 2 out of 3 Trees with very different values.
  • Lastly, we have also removed the 50 Fragments of the Archdruid Hut Upgrade Kit from the Celtic Chests (after each town), as well as the Druid Tree Selection Kit and replaced it with a low chance for the Tree of Vitality and a higher chance for the Tree of Patience.
We hope these changes, together with all the previous ones we applied, will help the St. Patrick's Event feel more balanced for you. It was possible all thanks to your feedback!

Sincerely,

Your Forge of Empires Team
