🐸🏮 2021 Spring Event Mar 25 – Apr 15 🏮🐸️
Links
Summary
This Event plays the same as last year’s where you will need to guide a frog across a pond by jumping to and from lily pads that hold animals. Each jump will cost a certain amount of Lanterns and each animal will provide a chance for a Daily Special or small prize. Each pond crossing will result in a Grand Prize which is the Suishun Mill.
The twist regarding this Event and that is determining to optimize your Lantern spending for better chances at winning the Daily Special or going the distance to ensure a completed Grand Prize? (see Notes/Tips below)
For this Event, you will compete in a League against all the other players on our World. Your League ranking with be determined by the number of ponds crosses as well as your activity (inactivity will move your League status downwards.)
Event Play
The Event currency is Lanterns (#1) which can be collected by completing Event Quests, logging in daily, and from Cherry Trees that will spawn around your City.
Inside the Event mini-game, you will spend your Lanterns to guide a Frog (#2) across a pond by leaping onto Lily Pads (#3) that features an Animal. Each Lily Pad/Animal has a certain cost and provide their own smaller prize and chance win the current Daily Special (#4).
The full distance of the pond is 25 Lily Pads and the last jump “distance” will NOT be transferred to the next pond but you will be presented with limited options depending on the distance remaining. Once you have made the last jump, you will be given a Grand Prize (#5) be taken to a new pond.
Your League (#6) placement will depend on the total number of ponds crossed during the Event.
Prize Systems
As well as a Grand Prize for every 25 jumps, there is a good selection of Daily Specials listed below to choose from.
Animals are divided into four tiers; Gold, Silver, Bronze, or, White. Each tier has a range of cost, distance, chances at the Daily Special as well as a random suite of regular prizes such as Blueprints, Military Units, Decorations, Potions, Buildings, SoK/WW fragments and a small amount of FP, Goods and Medals.
Additional prizes will be awarded depending on your League placement at the end of the Event.

Grand Prize Upgrading
The Suishun Mill is upgradable to Level 9. You will receive Level 1 Suishun Mill upon completing the first 6 Quests and upgrades upon completion of Quests #41 and #62. The remaining six (6) remaining upgrades must be acquired from obtaining Grand Prizes.
The Mystery Box from the St. Patrick’s Day event contains an additional upgrade and upgrades are given out if placed in the Silver League (x1) or Gold League (x2).
Notes and Tips
- Utilize the Sortable Animal Tables by Cost Ratio to help determine the optimal cost associated with your strategy of focusing on the Daily Special or completing Ponds. Pre-sorted lists are provided (or listed with pictures) and the table is linked should you go for a 'middle of the road' approach.
- Per FoEhints and others:
- Without the previous event's Mystery Box there is a high likelihood that diamonds will be required to obtain the final upgrade for a Level 9 Suishun Mill; however, the Mill will still provide 20 Goods and 8 FP at Level 8.
- Choosing the optimized Distance Animals even with a Mystery Box is still not a guarantee, thus some diamonds may still be required.
- Overall, the most common strategy is simply "go the distance" on days when the Daily Special you want is offered. This approach will not give you as many Daily Specials but will help secure as many Grand Prizes as possible. This is where 'questline rushing' comes into play such where one tries to get and then use all the available Lanterns on the first desired Daily Special offered. This tactic (and Snozz's favorite) attempts to secure the Grand Prize earlier in the Event to potentially be able to switch to the optimal expenditure of Lanterns acquiring the later desired Daily Specials.
