Unless a player has Quester's Boon the Gift Baskets are horrible. Did you remove a code or added a code that makes them so stingy?

But if you missed the limited-time quests in 2015 (Gnome) and 2017 (pet/companion) you will receive the rewards that were given in those years respectively. Rather than post spoilers here, you can refer to the wiki to see the rewards, and do a search for the item in your Ranch inventory, and Pet inventory to see if you have them. https://bushwhacker2.fandom.com/wiki/Limited-time_Quests In-game news Obi-Two or E-3C0 have returned to the Commons! If you missed their limited-time quests in 2015 and 2017, now is you're chance to complete them and claim their unique rewards! If that's old news for you, Obi-Two has a new reward for completing their quest a second time!

118 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 30th 2023 at 11:26 AM TheCatWhispurrer Yeah, the mini-event was rather...anti-climatic; at least, to me it was. But, that's not really why I'm here. An idea and concept I've been mulling over for some time now based on characters from Sanctuary Village. Now, this is for a future event, post-event, or even a mini-event. The Bushwhacker is going steady with either Burl or Faun and you're supposed to receive a random reward each time you visit them; according to the setup of Sanctuary Village. So... since Jim and Sasha (in game) got married, our friendly neighborhood developer, Nick, recently tied the knot, why not the Bushwhacker with either Burl or Faun (chosen by the player)? Said NPC then becomes a character to greet the Bushwhacker upon their return home and takes on a similar role as the Town Crier, but for the extra little items he doesn't already cover (i.e. how long you have until you can start the next quest in Coppers of the Creature Collector and the sort as we otherwise have no information to gain from the Town Crier as that's not one of his normal reports. In fact, I don't even know if the pet raising quests are reported on by the Town Crier.) Nothing to be taken too seriously, just a concept I thought I'd share as we're going to have so many other 'chores' added to the Bushwhacker's plate, but it's going to be fun!

HKE So glad you enjoyed the Pale Cube quest! I'll see about re-running the Fairy Horse mount pack. Otherwise, keep an eye out for it in future Pet/Mount sales and the Creature Collector mounts edition. An explosive seems likely to go off during the Nate's Birthday event! I'll note this down to consider for next time.

I haven't modified the drops for any of the gifts you can send to other players. Could just be the luck of the draw.

A mandolorian parody quest would be a great addition to the two Star Wars parody limited-time quests! Maybe we could even fit them in for May the 4th... Thanks for the suggestions.

If you still cannot find it, please submit a support ticket or email bw2support@codenameentertainment.com and I can take a closer look for you.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions for how you'd like to see VIP improved, or what kind of items added to the store.

I'll note it down to consider for a future update. 2 - I can see the utility in being able to buy Gold for Gems. I'll note it down to consider.

I tend to refer to these tribute/parody quests as "Limited-Time Quests" because they're not intended to be as involved as typical mini-events. Marrying your Sanctuary Village partner is a very cute idea! Having them live at your Ranch reminds me of Harvest Moon. I'll note this down to consider for a future update.
