Fireworks Festival
Welcome to Fireworks Festival, a reskin on the 1 week Heart of the Herd, for the July long weekend. Look all around your farm to find firework crates and bring them to Benny in the special events area (west of the Market.) In return, she has some amazing rewards for your hard work!
There is a set of 8 tasks from Benny, shown in the table as having no level (x/8). Then there are 25 reward milestones shown with the delivery station square.
Once you are done both sets, there is a set of 5 repeating tasks in the delivery station.
The first two tasks from Benny require you to collect 25 crates. The first set is only around Sundale and you need to find all of them to progress. The second set is another 25 only around Golden Hills and you need to find all of them to progress. They you will get 25 per Homestead that regenerate 5 every hour (can be skipped with gold). If you pop onto the game, finding 1 crate will start the regeneration timer, giving you 1 hour to find at least 5 crates from each Homestead to optimize the respawning of crates.
If you can find 20 on each Homestead, you have 4 hours before you need to worry about them again. The only time you really need to find all the crates is if you will be away for more than 5 hours.
The trees and rocks on the map move faster than the ground, so it is very possible for crates to be hidden behind a tree and then exposed as you scroll by. I find sweeping sideways does a better job of exposing them. Lots of users are complaining with this event about completely hidden crates (some are, others need the map to be at an extreme, which means they get lost in all the floating menus in the HUD).
Some of the crates are a little larger and give fine fertilizer and/or gems. The last 2 Benny tasks are finding x number of crates, so piles with multiple crates only counts as one. The delivery station tasks (25 of them) are HOW MANY crates, so finding a pile may count for 5 or 10.
There is a second set of tasks that run every few hours that you can access via the task book. These are almost impossible to do without spending hard currency (find 250 crates in 12 hours where a perfect run - 75 to start and 180 spawned - gives 255 crates), and should be treated as a pay to play sucker task, not a real task. The Photo box reward is not worth it.
After you finish the 25 crate collection tasks (delivery station), there are 5 repeating tasks that resets every 1000 horses found. So the 5 instant cow feed can be collected at 4900, 5900, 6900, 7900, etc.
*** The progress bar tasks number and reward numbers do not line up in the delivery station. This is because the first event has a task 0 you needed to earn, and it was only half removed.
