linkistheheroHeya Nick! Seeing as how some older events are being rerun, may I suggest reruns of some of the older pet/mount sales and/or limited-time stores if possible? I think rerunning some of them could make for a great opportunity for players to catch up on any pets or mounts they missed out on! One I'd like to see rerun again is the Fairly Mischievous Fairies Limited-Time Store! I'd love to be able to have the fairies from that event!

TheCatWhispurrerLast Edited March 2nd 2023 at 12:33 PM Is there a way to still purchase the Dark/Haunted Theme from a few years back? And on the subject of haunted, a suggestion for a Halloween Event customization item: A grey fog, much like the green one that already exists in the Halloween Event items.
Also, and I'm surprised that one doesn't already exist, for a future St. Patrick's Day Event: a banshee pet that we could either capture to save the leprechauns from, or maybe even to just simply purchase as an Event package deal. I don't quite remember if I already suggested this idea for a customization item (random whack from a tree, fish out of a fishing hole, or from an Event) but: a lighthouse. |

FoufiDoomRussel Denton told me to post my latest suggestions in this thread too, so I paste from my latest suggestion post:
Hello! My suggestions are below. I'd like at some point to be able to merge the two syphon trinkets into one, because I don't have room to both get all 100 power/mana, turn them into gold/energy in case I get power/mana more than once while returning satchel quests, get 10% off the cooldown time and the 5% repeat odds AND add the odds to get dust when winning a rune. All this given that the syphons work when getting power/mana from satchel AND that Trapelacucha works no matter how you win a rune. I've been trying to test both those last cases but I hadn't had any luck yet getting power/mana twice or get dust when getting a rune from the quarry or the trinkets guy in commons. I have three of Derringer's rune recipes so I could craft runes to turn excess mana and power into energy but I can't see in the wiki how long they last and if they can be combined with other runes. I prefer my perfect runes of nothings and mana. Also, can we get a text when hovering over consumables that tells us their limit if there is any? i have kept all sorts of consumables, cookies, chocolates, easter eggs, tarts, for emergencies, and I don't know with the next related event that gives those consumables if I will be able to add any more of them. Thank you! |

Russel DentonLast Edited March 6th 2023 at 1:01 PM in the previous Q/A Vegan1964 asked if the princess will return, so i came up with a way to bring her back, here it is
Here's a idea to explain the princess's absence since the high jungle...enjoy We get a message from the town crier, that the princess, is in desperate need of our help immediately, and to meet her at the chromatic pools, you head to the chromatic pools and find the princess , and she looks sick and pale in colour, and you ask her what’s wrong, she replies she cannot enter any further into the salt desert or she will die, so you ask why, the princess explains that she was not born like normal citizens of Bushwhackia but was created by the voodoo doctor in the swamp, because her father the king (from Bw1) and queen could not have children so they seeked out to create one instead, and asked the voodoo doctor to create a baby/kid, so he did, After hearing this you head to the voodoo doctor at the voodoo huts in the swamp area, you arrive at the voodoo huts, you see the voodoo doctor and tell them what's happening, and the voodoo doctor remembers making the princess, and then the voodoo doctor mumbles under his breath “ that was a damn mistake”, but then the voodoo doctor says that something went wrong with creating the princess , and that one of the ingriedients broke apart while being added, instead of being whole, upon hearing this you ask if it can be fixed, and the voodoo doctor, replies of course it can, you just need to find the following ingriedients from the Eight Kingdoms/Tribes of Bushwhackia, they are: 1-Cloud Kingdom – Find 100 Pink Crystalised Cumulus clouds - whack anywhere in the cloud zone 2-Mermaid City ( then head to the murky depths) – Fish up 50 Crystalised Kraken poop - fish items up at the murky depths 3-Crystal Kingdom ( Crystal Mine Entrance ) – Find 100 gem-encrusted Magma - whack anywhere in the mine zone 4-Jungle Tribe ( the 1st jungle zone) – Find 50 Ruby-shaped orchids - whack anywhere in the jungle zone 5-Mushroom Kingdom – Find 100 Golden-capped Mushrooms - whack anywhere in the mushroom zone 6-Pompeii – Find 50 Lava-encrusted Odsidians - Whack anywhere in the Pompeii zone 7-High Jungle – Find 100 petals from the Topaz Orchid - whack anywhere in the high jungle zone 8-Salt Desert – Find 100 salty gold nuggets - whack anywhere in the salt zone After finding these items, you return to the voodoo doctor, and tell him you found all the ingriedients, the voodoo doctors looks at them and praises you, and says there is still 1 more ingriedient to find to bind all the ingriedients together, you head of to anywhere in the swamp zone to find 50 Lichen of eternal stench, once you find them , you again return to the voodoo doctor, and he again praises you, and says “ we need to head to the prismatic passage to make this work”, you both head to anywhere in the prismatic passage and the voodoo doctor starts the potion, after a while the voodoo doctor says all is done, take this too the princess and bring her back here, You head back to the princess and get her to drink the potion, she does, and then you take her back to the voodoo doctor in the prismatic passage spot, and the voodoo doctor says” let’s test to see if it works, and tells us to go anywhere in the salt desert zone and to also find the voodoo doctor some lunch , You head back to any area in the salt desert and whack up the lunch and head back, and the princess is all good, and the voodoo doctor is pleased that it works and rewards you the following 5 – red energy packs A golden capped mushroom A ruby shaped orchid And a mini kraken pet- that does multiply energy wins This is just a rough idea, happy to hear folks thoughts |

FlybabyLast Edited March 6th 2023 at 11:30 AM Hi Nick,
A long time ago someone asked if you could add more items to the Botanist Vendor Store on Amicus, and you said you would consider suggestions. This suggestion actually comes from another player, and I agree that it would be a great idea. Right now we can purchase Spring and Autumn trees from the Botanist, and Summer trees from the store, but Winter trees are not available for purchase. Could you please consider the option to let us purchase the special trees associated with the Season/Holiday themes so we can place them wherever we want, “without” having to use the associated theme skin? Suggested Trees Special Palm trees from the Jungle (3) and Beach Themes (2) Special Winter trees from the Winter (3) and Christmas themes (3) You could even make it a requirement to purchase the Themes before making the trees available to purchase from the store. Adding Winter trees and Jungle/Beach Palm trees to the other seasonal trees we have available would also work really well on our golf courses, as so many players enjoy creating a variety of seasonal and holiday themed areas throughout the course, but don’t necessarily want to change the overall theme. |

ElizHi Nick,
Can you please add the flungeon daily quest cooldowns to the TC. It really sucks paying the token to go to the terminal and then not having the quests ready. It would also be really nice to be able to hand in flungeon trophies without having to pay to get in each time. TIA |

There've been so many limited-time quests that I nearly forgot about that one haha! I'll certainly consider re-running it and other one-time quests. |

Nickshire (CNE Dev)I am certainly open to more suggestions regarding revisiting limited-time quests! I had re-ran the Star Trek parody at someone's suggestion on the stream.

I've been considering putting the Haunted ranch style into the Amicus store for Bush Bucks. Maybe it's time to pull the trigger on that! I'll add your suggestion for the Grey Fog ranch item to our list for this coming Halloween event. Funny you should suggest a Banshee pet! I think Georgia is planning one for the St. Patrick's event! A Lighthouse ranch item is on our suggestions list. |

Thank you! Merging syphon trinkets might fit will with a future content update for the max level players. That being said, part of the puzzle of choosing trinkets is which to include in your limited set of 8 optional slots. But also, there's been talk of adding separate slots for particular trinkets with special effects that don't contribute to your whacking bonuses. Experimenting with different bonuses and discussing them amongst your fellow players is something we encourage! So good luck with the testing :D I believe most items with maximums do say in their tooltip. If you find one that doesn't, do let me know! Most premium energy consumables don't have limits, but it can be hard to differentiate which is which. |
