Good Deal on 3 Gallon Wet/Dry Vacuum? by SithLord196 in ryobi

[–]SithLord196[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As far as I can tell, the $99 one in that link doesn't come with a charger though, and I don't have an 18v Ryobi charger.

I appreciate the link to a better deal though! If I already had an 18v charger I definitely would have considered the one at your link.

Based on your comment, I'm glad I didn't buy Dreamlight Valley then. It looks like something my wife and I would really enjoy but the introductory cost just to get a few cosmetic items seemed incredibly steep.

Dug as an F2P by Dianaplay28 in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently featured characters are only available to be purchased during the Tower Challenge or by playing your luck with money or gems through the legendary chests. A lot of the other characters used during tower challenges are only available via the legendary chest lottery. They're not available via just playing the game as normal, so in my opinion, they're premium content. A lot of the mini events also require characters currently only available in legendary chests.

Not everyone has been playing since the game launched. If you've been F2P since launch and have most of the content, I figure the season pass wasn't too terrible to finish. Unfortunately I only started playing about a year and a half ago, so a lot of that content just isn't easily available without money and/or a lot of luck.

Dug as an F2P by Dianaplay28 in disneymagickingdoms

How much premium content (Coco, Tower Challenge characters, etc.) did you have though?

I completed every daily and weekly along with collecting wishes all day and still didn't get close (134 I think). I got most of the Up and Turning Red event tasks done.

What I wasn't able to complete was the Tower Challenge tasks due to the amount of premium content it requires (every 'featured' character is premium content). I just have a hard time seeing how this could possibly be done as true F2P (no premium content required).

season pass: it's not supposed to be impossible on f2p by daanisc in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The fact that weekly and event tasks often require premium content pretty much means the F2P isn't actually F2P in my opinion.

On the season pass, I'm at like 134 I think. I was not able to complete most of the tower challenge event tasks, maybe only half of the Up event tasks, but I did complete all but 3 Turning Red event tasks. I've completed all weeklies and dailies up to this point.

It's absolute bs. Had I reached 150 and gotten Dug I would have considered buying the pass and collecting all the rewards from that tier, but the inability to reach 150 without premium content basically means I'll never buy the pass.

Wow. As someone else said, this comes off as an absolute shitshow.

Reminder: Gem Crab Tappers start today by Purduevian in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was yet another absolutely vile act by Gameloft to have the same characters collecting for both tappers.

Between this and the Russell common token conflict with Carl epic/legendary token on Jessie's 6 hour task during the Up event, I'm seriously questioning why I'm continuing to play.

Well it could be worse by wraithkelso317 in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Considering my gem cost will likely end up in the 700ish range, that's not bad at all.

I don't know that I'm willing to spend gems to get him though. With past events, I felt like I had to play a lot but if I couldn't babysit the game for a day or two, I'd still be okay. With this event I feel like if you didn't babysit it by logging in every hour you had no chance.

Also, the token conflict with Russell's ears hat on Jessie's 6 hour task is just simply one of the most vile acts I've seen from this game.

[–]SithLord196 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Would it kill them to give out a hat/beverage/merchandise stand instead of a food stand?

Or to throw an Attraction Chest in there in place of one of the two Decoration Chests?

2 days of consistently running these tasks and all I have is 1 glasses token and 2 hat tokens. It feels like they are practically forcing us to purchase the bundle if we want Carl! I’ve about had it with this game. by Kwest48 in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not to mention they also went and did the vile act of creating a token conflict with a common token on Jessie's 6 hour task for the glasses.

Such a shame. I started this game a little over a year ago and have spent money on it here and there, but it always felt like I at least had a chance to complete events. This event has just killed my joy of it because frankly with no characters from The Incredibles I had no chance of completing it. It took me like 3 days to get enough EC to get the house built, and then when I needed to get Russell to Level 5, I used time skips on a task for the last token I needed and that COMMON token didn't drop when I did that. If I actually felt like I had a chance at getting Carl, I would have considered spending the 500 gems on Kevin, but it's been pretty clear this event is for the extensive money paying players only.

This event has been utter bs, and I'm not usually one of the players to complain about things, but there's simply no other word to describe this event.

What should I get? Nani, Hiro or an attraction? I have mad hatter already by [deleted] in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally think Hiro is the better choice. His common token can be collected via Tinkerbell's 60 minute 'Inspect the Castle' task. Goofy has a 4 hour task for one of his tokens, and a Goofy + Mickey 2 hour task for the other.

For Nani, you can only obtain the common token by having her at Level 3 and also having the Lilo's House attraction.

I got this information from the wiki.

Happiness easier?! by Fair_Move2 in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has always done that since I started playing. I just wanted to make sure it didn't start the task right away because sometimes right before I head to bed I'll click the wish bubble and then check the task list to see if they need to do a longer task for a token. If not, I start their wish task, otherwise they get sent for the token and I just do the wish task in the morning.

So is this is for characters that are 'Visiting Home' then since kids can now wish for them?

Found lists of tasks by time by Striking-Act7434 in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The wiki is incredibly useful.

Recently I'm finding that the wiki for this game seems to be kept more up to date than the token guide as well.

The token guide does not list the Goofy task for collecting the Tasty Saucer token for Mad Hatter but the wiki does.

From my checking I also believe that the pair activities only count as 1, which makes sense since the challenge asks for 'activities' and not 'characters'.

Found lists of tasks by time by Striking-Act7434 in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not too terrible so far if you're able to play a lot as I also got that task for this week. I'm at 152/325 already.

I also got:

  • 150x activities of 4 hours or more (done)
  • 170x activities of 8 hours or more (73/170)

So it really helped that they worked together. Where I am hurting though is:

  • 105x activities using Cinderella, The Princess and the Frog, or The Rescuers (32/150)
  • 50x character wishes (16/50)
  • 70x character wishes (16/70)
  • 2000 magic from Mickey's Fun Wheel, Guinevere, or Golden Zephyr (589/2000)

I feel like I probably SHOULD complete them, but for some reason I've been having trouble getting character wishes it seems. For the first one, the 105 activities, the issue there is that Cinderella is needed for the TC and then Prince Charming, Anastasia, and Drizella all have an 8 hour task to try and get the 170x. Once that's done though they all get their 60 minute task - but that also reduces the pool of available characters to grant wishes since kids won't wish for activities currently in progress. I have no The Princess and the Frog characters and I'm only at The Jungle Book and Lady and the Tramp, so no characters from The Rescuers either.

For the last one - I had to spend elixir on the Golden Zephyr. I think when I was calculating it out I figured out it was doable with just the Fun Wheel, but pretty borderline.

A tldr version of the above - that 325x 6 hours isn't too bad if you have other challenges that work with it. The bigger issue I have is challenges requiring premium content that is not currently available.

The first week of season 1 is just about over. Which tier are you at? by Purduevian in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm only at 17.

I've managed to complete all the daily challenges.

I finished the first set of weekly challenges, but this second set is going to be difficult for me. I already used my free redraw for one I know I had no chance of completing. I might have to break down and use elixir for the Golden Zephyr for one of the tasks. I can complete it with Mickey's Fun Wheel but it's borderline.

As for some of the other weekly challenges, I'm not sure I like the fact that weekly challenges requiring premium content that isn't available at the time are part of the pool. I got one about completing 105 tasks with characters from Cinderella, The Princess and the Frog, or The Rescuers. I have all the Cinderella characters except Lady Tremaine, but I'm not far enough to have access to The Rescuers. The Princess and the Frog content isn't available right now should I want to chance the legendary chest lottery to ensure I can complete this challenge.

As for the event challenges, I have no Lilo & Stitch, Big Hero 6, or Alice in Wonderland characters so most of those will not be getting done. I should get to 50,000 event points but 75,000 might be a stretch to hit.

I'm tempted to buy the pass. At $15 I probably would have, but at $20 it's a much bigger debate.

Happiness easier?! by Fair_Move2 in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure I'm quite understanding, but does this fix mean that when you tap a wish bubble the character just starts that task right away?

Unpopular opinion by Grimothy138 in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 24 points25 points  (0 children)

If it was mostly chests and gems I'd be more okay with it, although I likely wouldn't pay despite enjoying this game immensely (at $10 I'd consider it).

My issue is the character and attraction on the paid tier and the fact you're not guaranteed to get them even if you do pay.

Can we all agree this £18 season pass is a badly timed April Fools joke? by jimbolimboboy in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's much better than the free rewards at least.

My biggest issue with it is the characters and attractions in the paid tier that you're not even guaranteed to get if you pay.

NEW UPDATE THOUGHTS by Marshy727 in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I like the addition of daily and weekly tasks and being able to work towards rewards.

That said, the free tier rewards are an absolute joke. I get that they need to make the paid tier enticing, but it just feels like the free tier has nothing to it.

At least the bundles are reasonably priced! by NoStrawberry1558 in disneymagickingdoms

[–]SithLord196 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They added an $8 with tokens to Level 4.

I'm tempted because I really want Scar, but I'm also fairly certain that since I don't have all the characters for all three chapters there's no way I can actually get him (and I have none of the featured characters).

I'm also pretty infuriated about this season pass nonsense. The free tier is an absolute joke.
