Easter Egg Hunt Difficulty Adjusted & New Profiles

Easter Egg Hunt Difficulty Adjusted

alleniwer_4.png

We have adjusted the Easter Egg Hunt difficulty and have made eggs appear more frequently. In addition, they will be less "faded" by up to 10% (i.e. they will have a darker fill, which will make them more recognizable when they do appear).

We want the Easter Egg Hunt to be fun for everyone. A challenge... but fun! Thank you for your feedback.

Half way through, mainly thanks to the advice of "the egg guy". Otherwise I only accidenatly find the eggs.

audaciousness • 11 Apr 2018, 9:43 AM

I got all 30 and the egg is really pretty!

scorch_cloud222 • 11 Apr 2018, 9:46 AM

Thank you for removing the possibility of repeats. That was always frustrating.

isathebelle • 11 Apr 2018, 10:39 AM

Finally found all the 30 Eggs πŸ˜‹ It was really difficult!!!!!All the way through!!

audaciousness • 11 Apr 2018, 10:43 AM

It’s sad I can’t still hunt for more eggs I enjoyed looking for them lol 😸

_piano_pokemon_ • 11 Apr 2018, 12:56 PM

took me forever but i found them all

dusskfall • 11 Apr 2018, 1:15 PM

@teddybearlover they pop up on random pages. just have to look. some people stick to oasis or thief shop and just refresh till they find one since the pages are small and you don't need to scroll. myself, i just feed till i find one near the top of the page

dusskfall • 11 Apr 2018, 1:19 PM

@teddybearlover before they lowered the difficulty it took me 6 hours to get 11 eggs. it should be easier now but it does take time

asteria • 11 Apr 2018, 1:42 PM

@dusskfall For me the difficulty got increased, not lowered. Before, I found 16 eggs while feeding my cove. After the change, I found 3.

telekinec • 11 Apr 2018, 1:53 PM

It took me two days to unlock all the eggs. Good luck to everyone!

spookey • 11 Apr 2018, 2:09 PM

just joined and found my first one!

toplel • 11 Apr 2018, 2:29 PM

is it harder to find if you found most of the eggs? The tiny swanice is not appearing for me

toplel • 11 Apr 2018, 2:42 PM

YAAAS i found it in the notifications

foxbit • 11 Apr 2018, 2:51 PM

Advice: go through a large cove (~200-300 creatures) to hunt for eggs. ~80%-85% of the eggs I found came from going through my Cove. Also, when you find an egg, rest for 5-10 minutes.

foxbit • 11 Apr 2018, 2:52 PM

...rest for 5-10 minutes to find another one. It may take a while. Maybe refresh.

libra • 11 Apr 2018, 3:43 PM

It's nice that it has been made a little easier. Thanks Egg Cave!

katrinwolf • 11 Apr 2018, 3:43 PM

Worked for me: go somewhere w/many pages (Archives/ big cove). After going through 15-20 pages pause, go do something else for around 5-10 minutes, keeping EggCave open. Then come back & go to the next page. Look thoroughly, an egg is VERY likely to be there. Wash, rinse, repeat.

spookey • 11 Apr 2018, 5:24 PM

found a couple more - they look like specks from my coffee on the screen. No wonder they are so hard to see!

novrain62 • 11 Apr 2018, 5:30 PM

got all mine!!

ghostly_ • 11 Apr 2018, 6:19 PM

enjoying the egg hunt, thanks @Ian !! one thing about the profile update.. my prof creature is kinda big and the new prof shape cuts part of his head off! (i saw this w others too) it might be helpful if we could edit our pfps to stop this from happening? idk. just a suggestion.

umbregrl • 11 Apr 2018, 6:38 PM

Seems harder for me this year. Or I'm just not lucky.

silverserpent • 11 Apr 2018, 7:02 PM

I got mine! Woo! πŸ˜ƒ

paige • 11 Apr 2018, 7:50 PM

@ everyone having issues with their egg hunts, I got all 30 of mine yesterday by going to the Thief Shop and refreshing once every 15 minutes, there was a large chance the egg would be there by the shop title 😊

xshadow10x • 12 Apr 2018, 2:19 AM

Well just being stubborn and taking breaks between the eggs helps a lot for me so good luck to everyone. Now back to finding eggs woo ^-^.

kudo • 12 Apr 2018, 7:58 AM

@Ian I have a question- I don't know if anyone's asked it (if they have, sorry for the repeat ^^") but once you finish the list and find all the eggs, can you still find any eggs?

thaliel • 12 Apr 2018, 8:09 AM

got 12, I was hoping to get to 15 today, but no luck so far

cherryblossomlover • 12 Apr 2018, 8:34 AM

got my egg πŸ˜ƒ

mastergemma • 12 Apr 2018, 8:47 AM

@silvershadow You won't be able to find any eggs after you finish finding them all. Except if you're looking in the Cave, then some will appear every 9-30 minutes πŸ˜‰

pooh • 12 Apr 2018, 3:23 PM

Okay, this time it's not fun...

umbregrl • 12 Apr 2018, 5:49 PM

5 more eggs to find. 😊

tiahny • 12 Apr 2018, 7:27 PM

10 more to go... finally figured out a pattern that works for me. Reading others' posts, seems it is different for everyone. Once I figured mine out, it has become easier and more fun. 😊 Thank you @Ian!

Ian • 12 Apr 2018, 7:55 PM

@tiahny glad you’re figuring it out!

kudo • 12 Apr 2018, 8:24 PM

@mastergemma oh haha xD thank you for answering xD

iris1929578 • 12 Apr 2018, 10:21 PM

Yay, finished it! When is the last day to claim the prize?

dragonfairy • 13 Apr 2018, 4:01 PM

Oh great i love these hunts but the eggs are just to tiny and i cant find any after visting many pages welp imma keep trying when i have time

umbregrl • 13 Apr 2018, 5:56 PM

Finally got all my eggs! 😊

katnisseverdeen426 • 14 Apr 2018, 4:18 AM

@iris1929578 It should be April 21. πŸ˜‰

superunloved • 15 Apr 2018, 8:07 AM

i not found one at all

redflipflap • 15 Apr 2018, 8:57 PM

Are eggs hiding in creature stats? I haven't seen any there but has anyone else?

jlya • 17 Apr 2018, 5:06 PM

Thanks @Ian for a really fun hunt! I got all 30 on the first day and kind of miss hunting... I like the idea of some small minigames from @playermocha345 for next year.
