Seeing Double achievement for low-level players (no gloves)
6 Posts	Link to post - Posted March 10th 2013 at 10:29 AM Alex Cyrlex I haven't completed Rocky Decline yet, and I don't have green gloves. Does it mean that I cannot complete Seeing Double achievement?

Has anyone tried using any gloves? Same goes for glasses. p.s. Yes there is some level dependance on this event and every event. You have to be able to go into the Commons and that requires something like more then level 5 and getting perhaps more then half way through the first zone and that requires some friends to help with paths so that could take several days. I just tried it out using my nieces account, on day one there we are up to level 5 and have completed the 3 puzzles each in 2 squares but have not yet reached the 3'rd of the zones 5 squares. But I can say that we have captured all 8 leprechauns and have enough coins, beer and clovers to turn in almost all 25 each.

And I think there is a difference between being able to access the Commons and completing Rocky Decline. You can get to the Commons in 2-3 days starting from scratch (and btw do you really need to get there? can't you access event zone through special shortcut?) But getting to Rocky Decline would probably require more than 14 days (event duration). And I also think that making limited time events also limited by level (or in-game progress) is somehow wrong. Things like leprechaun drops scale well with level - low levels get them more often, to compensate for limited energy reserve. Why couldn't it work the same way with the gloves?

Its kind of like trying to see the area progress of an area like the Flux which is only a single square so the 'area progress' shortcut does nothing at all. And Nates Crypts were also non-progressable since there were no puzzles to complete in the essentially 3 squares there, unlike all other Nates areas that had puzzles in their squares except the first one. As for missing out on parts of this event, or any event, its a 'Title' its not even an Achievement that anyone can see in your profile. Its a Title, and only the one Title you choose out of several dozen that one might have is what people might see. Every aspect of this event other then the Title is doable by just about everyone.
6 Posts	Link to post - Posted March 11th 2013 at 1:59 AM Alex Cyrlex Just to clarify: 1) by "special shortcut" I mean big green "Go To Event" button that appears in St. Patrick's Day Event window. Isn't it available to anyone, even before unlocking the Commons? 2) I can definitely see "Seeing Double" achievement in my friend's profile, currently it's the last one in the list. So missing it means missing both Title and Achievement. And isn't the goal of this game to get all progress bars filled? :) As for my initial question, looks like this achievement is closed for me. Oh well, maybe it will be repeated next year. That is, if the game is still alive by then :)

Like I said above, I thought people were putting too much faith in someones 'list'. Seems that those who are not high enough in the game to get to the area where the 'green gloves' or 'round glasses' come from can use just any gloves and glasses in those spaces where something is necessary. told you so. but I do wish they would confirm that in a permanent manner.

6 Posts	Link to post - Posted March 13th 2013 at 1:39 AM Alex Cyrlex Noemi, thank you for confirming that! I just hope that for future special events there will be some way around level limitations. Like selling gloves and glasses for leprechaun tokens for those who don't have them yet. Or something like that. Being unable to get an achievement is rather frustrating :)

Sucks for new players that they miss out. So, was this an oversight, or intended by the devs? If the special events were repeated annually and you would have the chance of getting that achievement next year, I'd be okay with it, but I seem to remember that that is as of yet undecided.
Lvl 109 "Other Peoples Problem Solver!" 510 Posts	Link to post - Posted March 13th 2013 at 1:02 PM Noemi Pomerleau It was an unfortunate oversight, when the green gloves were chosen we believed that they appeared earlier in the game. We'll definitely be more vigilant if we prepare similar achievements in the future so new players aren't left out.
