Cobalt foxgloves

OTM... Please fix spawn rate. The event mask quest is ridiculous as these never spawn. Either up the rate or allow some way to trade in other flowers to get them. I understand having to work for some quests but this is just a waste of time as it is currently because they never spawn so you can never complete. Usually the event quests keep one busy for a little bit of time to break the monotony of camping heroes but this quest line is a big failure.

If the mask is nice, I don't mind finding cobalts. But the mask is not that great.

Its almost been a week and i have 5 foxgloves, at this rate i probably wont have the 35 needed to get white by the end of the event. Spawn rate needs to be increased a bit +1

You need 5 for purple, 10 for black and then 20 for white. Not counting the merigolds and weeds, but theyre easy to get. Im afraid of starting black because i will be locked into it the whole event most likely :cry: and i wanted a few of the others in different styles

Ah I knew about the drop rate from beta but cba to spend the time for one this event. I kindve like them being impossible to get, like white covens means they will be super rare, I just hope that they make an event really hard to collect but actually make the masks look decent not awful like this events

White covens have an effect. There is a very slim chance you will get a shimmering white mask.
Here's the amount of work you would have to do to get a shimmering effect. 305 hours of picking.
I only found 2 cobalt foxgloves. Very rare
You could always try to buy them, or trade a bunch of your unused Marigolds for one. I wish they weren't so rare, but I guess that's part of the quest!
Just to have a 3-4% chance at a shimmering white mask. :cry:

From seeing everyone's posts and my bug report, it seems to be a 1/250 chance for a Foxglove. (I haven't had that much luck:( going on 600 with 1 fox. That means, to get a shimmering mask, you will need 415 fox gloves. (1/20 chance at best) to get those foxgloves, you will need to pick 103,750 flowers.



I have 20 picking minions averaging 17 flowers every time I log them. It takes 3 minutes to log them all.
17 fl/3 min to get 103,750 flowers will take me 18,300 minutes or 305 hours to pick a sufficient amount of flowers. Treating Celtic heroes as a full time 40hr/wk job, it will take me 7.5 weeks to pick these flowers.

I believe this was a mistake. Please fix this!!
