Question for CM's
Are the berries, roots and brimstone stored at the end of the event to be available when the alchemist tent reappears?

Also assume that the higher the level of Robber baron attacked, the higher the chance of gettign night leaves. I mt assumption correct. Or have I jsut made an ASS out of U and ME (Assume)

Yea, I have the same question... Where do the berries and twigs go after the alchemist event is over, and can I store them, and if not, when I use the potion and it says for example 20% for 6 hours, can I use that on the last minute of the alchemist event, and the boosted effect will keep going for 6 hours after the event is closed?

or basically, do I have to use all the twigs and berries in the next 34 hours or so...

"If you have left over ingredients at the end of the event then you can save them until next time."


That is a copy-paste from the official announcements sticky on the alchemist event. I was wondering about it myself. I have 228/13/8/1 left over so far

finding nothing but berries and roots, no brimstone or nightleaf and these are lvl 10-12 rbcs

[1389239] Dellow3 [None] :: Sept. 12, 2012, 6:05 p.m.

Yeah I am attacking level 1-9 rbc and cant find brimstone or nightleaf. I have 75 berries from all the attacks

the point is that a lot of people have just clicked on the tent and have found that they automatically bought some berries for 150 rubies! Therefore, a lot of people have lost a lot of rubies that they might have been saving up on some useless berries which I haven't touched. I would like my 150 rubies given back and the berries taken back from my account and I'm sure that everyone else who have the same situation want the same thing as me.

[1389271] UltimateStu [None] :: Sept. 12, 2012, 7:48 p.m.

same kind of thing happened to me... i opened the tent and lost about 2k rubies!



...ok, i might have clicked a few times hoping to get good ones :rolleyes:
(although i will warn others; don't buy them, you never get anything good either - i got *some* good ones from level 14 and level 15 RBCs)

Sorry madperson2, but if you clicked to use rubies and got the ingredients then we cannot give you the rubies back.

I disagree. I purchased one herb bag myself and got most of the ingredients i needed for my first potion. One robber baron later and i got the berries!

let me guess, the good bag of herbs was just one more purchase away?

[1389311] Tuxford [None] :: Sept. 12, 2012, 8:54 p.m.

The potions do NOT work!
I applied a potion to one of the stone quarries and the net production was the SAME.
I.E.
normal quarry: 56 base *100% * production bonus from public order (160%) = 89.3
potion quarry: 67.2 base *100% * production bonus from public order (160%) = 89.3???

Come on guys. It should be 107.5. So the potion does WHAT again????

[1389337] Lenzabi (US1) [None] :: Sept. 12, 2012, 10:13 p.m.

It's worse, i used to find map pieces but no map sections, just the damn berries
with so many berries, I could bake pies for all mu alliance! Alchemnist needs fixing! take it away until the bugs are all found and eliminated!

Read back a little in this thread (or it might have been another thread... I can't be bothered to check).
This is a small oversight - the output info per building doesn't get updated but if you checked the overall output of the resource production at the castle, you'd see the increase.

i DIDNT click the bag if herbs dont you understand if i had clicked the bag it would be my own fault but i DIDNT i only clicked the alchemist tent near the bottom corner of the castle so its the games fault and i still want my rubies back.

did you not even read his damn post? he said he and others just clicked the tent. they didn't click the stupid rubbie button that buys ingredients. that isn't right to just rip them of 150 hard earned rubies and give them a pile of trash just because the game is bugged.... The ingredients are nice but the fact that you can only use the potions during the event is 100% crap. It makes the potions much less valuable and definitely not worth wasting rubies to get the ingredients.

If you click to get herbs, what are they used for? Why do we want herbs?
