Once again the Anniversary Event is upon us, please save some loot mail's you will need these for parts of the quest chain.

Event start: August 10, 10:00 CEST
Removal phase start: August 24, 10:00 CEST
Deactivation: August 30, 22:00 CEST

Players with Level -57 can only get Cake Dough
Players with Level 58+ can only get Candles
During Event, Bonus with 2x XP and 3x loot will be active

You will need your Provision House and your barracks for this event - so leave any upgrades that you had planned till after the event.

Some quest will require you to buff another players island - in almost all cases - adding either fish or meat into a deposit will work - if you need to use a named buff please ask in Guild chat for a player that wants to be buffed (if no one is available then feel free to drop the buffs on Dr_Yorkies island)

Fish and meat deposits as well as tools (tool belt) can be made in the provision house, wheat deposits can be made in mayor’s house -collections - country sayings

Dough can be converted into Candles and vice versa.

Please don't be tempted by offers in TO (trade office), trading within Guild will be beneficial to both you and your Guild players.

Swapping cakes within Guild is always a good policy.
Petite Birthday Cake = 100% buff
Enormous Birthday Cake = 200% buff
Placing a cake on you own Festival house will give you an 8 hour buff, placing on a fellow players will give them a 12 hour buff, so makes sense to swap within Guild.

You will need to make balloons in the Festival Hall in exchange for resource’s, I would suggest that you examine the information in relation to this building - see what items you can make/gather easily and stock up on these prior to the event starting, in relation to some items, help will be available but please remember that there is a whole guild that will also be looking for items to turn into balloons, so if we don’t have enough stock of one item please don’t be disappointed if we offer you something else instead.
Once a community goal has been reached do not donate balloons until the next community goal is started, only donate whole amounts - donating 956 and then 46 is not good, wait till you have 1000, and then donate.

Short and Medium searches are best when you are online - send for longer when you are not online.
There are Achievements to aim for during the event.

Players will be doing a range of adventures - so the possibility of ls's (loot spots could be high), if you don’t have twig arrows please send me a trade requesting 20 of these, will give you a chance of getting the loot and some xp, cost as always 1 x fish for 20 twig arrows.
