The "Return of the Dragons" Quest
A significant portion of the source material discusses a specific quest titled "Return of the Dragons." The guidance emphasizes a strategy for completing this quest without spending crystals, which is the game's premium currency. The core recommendation is to stockpile Dragon Eggs before reaching step 8 of the quest.
Resource Chain for Dragon Eggs
The process to obtain a Dragon Egg involves a multi-step resource conversion chain within the game's store: * Dragon Egg: Purchased for 3 Dragon Talismans. * Dragon Talismans: Obtained by purchasing Sacks of Animal Talismans. Each sack costs 300 Pieces of Talismans. * Pieces of Talisman: Acquired from a Camp of Explorers. A single Camp of Explorers is purchased for 1000 gold and one Map of the Kingdom.
Mechanics of Camp of Explorers
Once a Camp of Explorers is purchased, the player must use a Shovel, crafted in the Craftsman's Shop, for the initial digging. The outcome is typically random: * Common Outcome: The explorers find nothing, and the camp is replaced by a freely openable box or crate. This container yields gold and a Field Journal, which can be used to place orders in the Museum of Antiquities. The box then disappears. * Special Outcome: Occasionally, the explorers discover a deeper layer, and the camp transforms into a special dig site. This requires a Pick, also crafted in the Craftsman's Shop, to dig up. The site then becomes a chest. * Wooden Chests require Wooden Keys to open. * Copper Chests require Copper Keys to open.
Resource Calculation and Time Investment
The sources provide a detailed calculation of the time required to gather resources for the quest. To purchase one Sack of Animal Talismans (300 Pieces of Talismans), a player would need to build approximately 900 Camps of Explorers. The analysis breaks down the time commitment as follows: * Gold and Craftable Items: Gold is considered manageable through simple orders in the Hotels. Resources for Shovels and Picks are also assumed to be produced sufficiently through orders. * Map of the Kingdom: This critical item is reported to drop only from the one-hour Profitable Order at the Owls' Post. With a maximum of three Owls' Posts, a player can produce 3 Maps per hour, allowing for the purchase of 3 Camps of Explorers per hour. * Time Estimate: At a rate of 3 Camps per hour, collecting 300 Pieces of Talismans (requiring ~900 camps) would take approximately 300 hours. This is equated to 12 days and 12 hours of continuous gameplay without breaks.
The sources note that Steps 9 through 11 or 12 of the quest likely have similar resource requirements. The analysis also mentions uncertainty about whether a dragon acquired before the quest step counts towards it and the odds of obtaining specific dragons, suggesting that one dragon in the set is likely rare.
Additional Game Mechanics and Player Queries
Beyond the "Return of the Dragons" quest, the sources contain various player-submitted questions and reported glitches, indicating common points of confusion or interest within the game.
Reported Glitches
One glitch is described where a player can place multiple instances of the same plant (a flower sprout or tree) by selecting the item from inventory after placing one, allowing for placement until space runs out. This is presented as a potential exploit for players.
Common Player Questions
The sources list several questions from players, which highlight areas of the game that may be unclear or challenging: * What items are needed to build or complete a statue? * The strategic order for spending crystals on purchases. * Where and how to find unicorns to feed. * How to obtain the smugglers box (suggested to involve ordering black roses). * The purpose of winter hearts and ways to earn snow without using crystals. * The location of the gift shop. * How to obtain juicy garden pumpkins for a Halloween quest.
For Fairy Kingdom: World of Magic, additional questions are noted, such as how to get the swampy toadstool, how to collect willow branches, how to grow a specific tree, and the location of the garden coffee table.
