Hellish Hydraulics – Crafter’s Choice Event

 

We now know what the loots for the New Unknown Event are for. They are for a Crafter’s Choice Event that is called Hellish Hydraulics. This is a spam your friends event for Hydraulic Cylinders and when you collect enough you will be able to collect Hydraulic Cannons and/or Hydraulic Hippos.

The objective of this event is to build or upgrade as many items as you can within the time limit of the event.

You will have 7 days to collect and spend as many parts (Hydraulic Cylinders) as you can.

Get parts (Hydraulic Cylinders) by:

Feeds: Earn up to 30 parts (30/30) per day by having your friends click on your feeds. You can post a feed every 2 hours (provided you have not reached the daily limit) and get a maximum of 10 parts per feed. In addition, you can earn up to 10 parts (10/10) per day by clicking on your friends' feeds.

If you have not collected your 30 Hydraulic Cylinders for the day you will get one in addition to giving your friend one when you click on their feed.

Once you have collected your allotment of 30 for helping your friends Zynga will inform you when you help more of your friends.

You also get parts by

Jobs: Get up to 5 parts (1/5) per day as loot drops while doing jobs.

That equates to 45 Hydraulic Cylinders that you can collect each day for 7 days. If you collect the maximum number of Hydraulic Cylinders each day you should have 315 collected in total.

The daily limit timer resets each day at 12:00 AM PST (3:00 AM EST).

Friends Clicking On Your FEEDS	30
You Clicking On Your Friends FEEDS	10
From Doing Jobs	5
Total Parts (Hydraulic Cylinders) You Can Collect Each Day	45
Total Parts (Hydraulic Cylinders) You Can Collect In 7 Days	315

If you take the total parts needed to maximize your builds and upgrades you simply count all the parts needed on the Upgrade and Build Charts.

	Hydraulic Cannon	Hydraulic Hippo	Both
Bronze	0	0	0
Silver	10	10	20
Gold	20	20	40
Ruby	30	30	60
Emerald	40	40	80
Total Parts To Fully Upgrade	100	100	200

If you add the ALL the Build parts you should find that you will need 93 Hydraulic Cylinders to get the either the Hydraulic Cannon or the Hydraulic Hippo to the maximum number of loot builds. Therefore, multiply the 93 by 2 to find out how many you need to build 10 of each. That gives us 186 parts needed to build 10 of ach the Hydraulic Cannon and the Hydraulic Hippo.

Total Upgrade Parts Needed	200
Total Build Parts Needed	186
Total Parts Needed To Build And Upgrade	386

What this means is that it is IMPOSSIBLE to completely master this event without the use of RP’s.

Total Parts Needed To Build And Upgrade	386
Total Parts (Hydraulic Cylinders) You Can Collect In 7 Days	315
Deficit Of Parts	71

It will cost about 59 RP’s, minimum, to completely master this event. Unless there is something I am not seeing. 

The best strategy appears to get your loots upgraded before you do your builds. If only for the skill points that come with the loots at Ruby and Emerald level.

Or, concentrate on one or the other.

As you can see all you need to do is change a number to find the image.

The images, like the one below, are more difficult to find.

But not impossible.

These images can be found rather easily most of the time if you know what to type in and search for.

If you copy/paste the address above into your search bar and type various loot item names into the yellow section of the address above and search for yourself then you just may stumble across some loots too.

Next Limited Time Mission - Oriental Retribution

The next Limited Time Mission will be called ‘Oriental Retribution’.

These banner images are easy to find since all you need to do is change 1 number in the server link address. The address for the Oriental Retribution is as follows;   https://zyngapv.hs.llnwd.net/e6/mwfb/graphics/quest/QE39-promo-HP-700x600-01.jpg

The server link address for the previous mission (The Cornerstone) was as follows; https://zyngapv.hs.llnwd.net/e6/mwfb/graphics/quest/QE38-promo-HP-700x600-01.jpg

Therefore, no credit is warranted to be given ANYONE since ANYONE can discover the banner images with such ease.

If any credit should be given to anyone for finding any of the images it should be given for discovering the things like the loot items associated with the events (If they aren’t already added to the inventory). Images like this guy;

Even these images can be rather easily figured out many times if you know what to type in and search for.
