i have a few idea's

1- PET ATTRIBUTE IDEA'S - i reckon the following attributes would be handy

- Double Fruit wins
- Double Gem wins
- Double Puzzle piece/Quest wins, i reckon this would go good as a
trinket then a pet really, like the alamanac trinket perhaps

2- this idea was suggested last year i think or the one before and it is the ability too do more than 1 hub at once.

3- Shadowsil - you can only do quests from commons in the rainbow's end, the rest have to be done in flux or their associated areas like Jungle, Spine of the world etc, hope this helped matey

I'm adding a vote to having the event fields act like the flux, Rainbow's end is one, but there are also both event and repeating fields that should act like the flux, I'm thinking the 'perfect rune' one in this case. I never make the perfect runes simply because I can't do it whilst also clearing out my hub quests, same with the event fields. Rainbow's end is getting the last of my energy or mana whacks each day and will end up being something that I have to keep going to until the end of the event. Before anyone says that would be too much of an advantage it is balanced by the fact that the penalty for allowing this is that you won't build flux dust/trinkets, which is the benefit of the flux.

1) I'll note these bonus ideas down, thanks!

2) We limit the number of hubs you can do at one time to limit how many active quests you can have at once as well as to pace the content.

3) This is true, but I do agree with Shadowsil's suggestion to have it count like a flux field, to encourage people to use it more.

I agree with having the event fields work like flux fields, regarding hub quests. Primarily to encourage players to engage with the event content.

Happy Pie Day

I think having to buy past items with BB to get past achievements is totally unfair to those who are new to playing or those who missed those years. I think they should be purchased with gems, gold or both.

Happy Pie Day!

This has been the format even since we started repeating events. That being said, I understand what you're saying, and will reconsider this for a future update.

Some of us like to trade gifts. It would be great if we could send multiple gifts at once to the same person

That's nice! Having the UI support multiple gifts at once would be nice, though it's not a priority at this time. I will note it down to consider for a future update though.
