#F2P friendly Idleon experience

With the newest event now upon us, I'd like to remind folks of the ever-growing disparity between the F2P community and the P2W community.

Here's how to enjoy Idleon while being F2P:
1: Do not spend your event plays in hopes of a jackpot. Save them until a very valuable jackpot is revealed 'and' you have the plays to guarantee it.

2: and this one's a biggie. Ignore everything to do with green gems and any microtransactions. Your cortisol levels will thank you.

3: know that new updates follow a formula in terms of released content in conjunction with the game's overall gameplay. When the hype is high, active-play features WILL BE THE DEVELOPER'S PRIORITY. Additionally, PAID CONTENT WILL BE THE DEVELOPER'S PRIORITY. At least initially. Once the high of the update fades, more afk-friendly features will be implemented. Currently, Lava's been trying to make active player number go up, which means longer active activities during peaks. He will make features that revolve around you having the game open for extended periods of time.

3b: have a moderately decent device. Idleon is not for the budget friendly phone. You will not last 1 hour in the mid game.

4: Have patience. Oh sweet mother of Kruk, it is important. Impatience is the killer of joy in this game.

All this being said, it's definitely taking some getting used to, and if the drop rate of these new chocolate coins are any indication, I'm going to struggle to keep playing...

I had to spend about 30 minutes to get the set of 50, something that took me around 10 minutes last event.

for the 50 items drop, chek after tomorows reset to see if it feels as bad. Cuz i recall when the last event started it felt like first day took for ever to farm

Duly noted. I'll follow up with that when the time comes.

with the guaranteed crystal chance we get swarmed with mob so fast it probably help get them faster

I can confirm, after less than a minute of farming on my AC on Coralcave guardians, I've already hit 25 chocolate coins. (Got the other 25 in just another 3 minutes.)

Compared to yesterday on my DK, farming bored beans... That was painful.

So yeah, keep a bit of patience, friends. It's tough, I know, and even I fail with it sometimes.

a tip to farm the event stuff and do your cranium cooking is letting the game run at the rift. this is because th enemies there dont have any other drop and they dont drop coins
