I was hoping for the snow to dissapear..!

It has been around for a long time and Winter has finished. It will be different once it disappears.

Yay i can buy more halls of legends . Hmmm i had no idea there was a legendary Bushwack .

I hate snack stand quests.....uggggggghhhhh

Yeah, that Snack Stand quest is going to take a chunk of time. Hopefully Part 3 is less time consuming.

Also Mini Houses are back, and you can buy the Vacation Bungalow for gems for a limited time. Why you would ever pay gems for that I do not know!

Legendary bushwhacker and legendary blades are in and coded. Anyone have legendary jawbreaker appearing or déjà vu? I think those are the other two.

I have linked legendary déjà vu and it is still registering as regular déjà vu.

I have leg jawbreaker...but it didn't appear

Yay Snack Stands . Everytime i remove them to make space , another quest like this pops up and I have to put them back .

No sign yet of the other 2 legendaries. Or of the Dark TT either!

Winter has finished?! Not if you look out my window!! Those touches of green around the edges of the islands make them look positively tropical to my eyes.

And for annoyance value I'm netting only one or two snacks from the snack stand so far each time I collect from all 6.

And worse still, the Snack Stands are community buildings, so they are also popping out candies sometimes instead of cotton candy.

When I saw the toy link quests, I was excited that I actually had Blades and Bushwhack, but I had the Legendary version. I didn't think it mattered until I scrolled down the list of updates and saw that he was added into the game. Oh well. At least my Blades is regular.

And I will agree that winter is definitely not over. We're expecting another winter storm tomorrow, after our snow from two weeks ago is finally melting away. Winter doesn't officially end until March 20.

Had to rebuild some post offices to push the candy gathering as fast as possible so my snack bars can operate with only cotton candy as the goal.

I have 300 candies already .

Yeah, I knocked off the candies target pretty quick to give the snack stands the best chance. Hasn't really worked though, since finishing the candies I'm still usually only getting 2 or 3 Cotton Candy out of the 6.

Agree with that, I have been reasonably diligent at checking in but only have 59 so far, average is between 2 and 3 each 45 minutes. Will take a few more days to knock that one off.

Monthly part 3:
Clear 10 Troll Mobs with Legendary Skylanders
Send 150 Legendary Skylanders on Elemental Adventures

Can you tell us what the reward is for part 2 and part 3?

Part two was 50 gems.
Part three was 50 gems and 50 wish stones.

Another of my accounts should finish part 3 in the next few hours. I'll screen shot it then.

So basically you have to take Legendaries off Hall of Legends duty (and the gems that gains) for 150 elemental missions to earn a small amount of gems. They seriously need to up their game on this if they want people to care enough do them.

Depending on how on top of it you are doing the short elemental missions and how many Legendaries and Balloons you have this third part could actually be a loss in gems overall.

I think I have a solution. Don't collect your snack stands all at once. It may mean not using Quiggly, but I've collected 1 stand and looked for bats and trolls, collected a stand, and then populated houses, then another stand and so on.
It is really just pUtting about a minute or more in between collections. I know some people just try to check in periodically and like to just grab and go... But if you have several minutes when you play, try it. I have done this 5x and it increases my drop rate to 4 or 5 per collection.

I still have more than 120 to go, but, this seems to double my drop rate.

Sending a Skylander to Hall of Legends takes 6 hours. In theory, you could do 12 of the short elemental missions in that time (16 if you have Flynn, although most won't check in that much). So basically, you're giving up about 15-20 Hall visits to do the missions, depending on how often you can check in. You would probably collect only about 10-15 gems from those visits, if you're lucky. Not a bad trade off, I'd say.

Plus, it makes me feel better to complete the quests.

It really depends on several things including the need to check back every 22-30 minutes for several hours. If you do the lowest one and can check it often, it will probably end up better. If it takes you more than 2 Hall cycles of non-use, you are probably going to lose gems in the end. The reward should be better than that given it is the last step of the chain that requires a great deal of interaction.

If you guys are worried about gem loss then why not spend 5 traps for Luminous .

From what I've seen Luminous doesn't pay out all that much, particularly for short timeframe adventures. Besides, it isn't that it is a big deal - it's just these are our monthly special things now, it would be nice if the rewards were special enough to make you want to put in the effort to complete them - kind of like we used to do with Sanctums (which were basically 1,200 gem rewards).

Hey a job is a job my good man .

For those of you who wanted the screen cap of part 3 conclusion:

OOOoohh Shiney .

I doubt there are many people on top of things / obsessed enough to do 4 collections from the Legendary Halls every day. Most people are doing 1 to 3. That leaves plenty of time to fit in a half hour elemental mission or two for every legendary skylander every day without losing a Hall of Legends stint.

And if you have the adventure clock you can do another set of missions with all legendary skylanders every day without interrupting your hall of legends use.

Personally I generally do two legendary halls every day, one in the morning and one at night. Plenty of time between those to fit the elemental missions, I certainly am not losing any legendary hall opportunities in completing it.

I am maxed out on golems and hall of legends. Most of the time only two random halls have the precious green resource and thats an estimated average 3 - 8 gems per harvest . Sooo I would say it takes about at least a week to make 50 gems ?

There is no way in heck anyone will lose out if they do the Pt 3 quest .

I only have 46/200 Cotton Candies...this is not looking good.

Have you maxed out your snack stands at 6? If not you may want to add some.

You have the rest of the month to finish it . Dont worry so much .

Yeah I have all six, I wish they were guaranteed drops

This is a very frustrating quest!

I only have 8 more cotton candy,s to collect .

I have to remember to pre-load all of my legendaries on elemental missions prior to collecting my last cotton candy, which should hopefully happen this week so I have a head start on part 3.

I am already 100 adventures into part 3 for the elemental. I am not worried about gem duty because I am doing it every 30 minutes and this is about 12 adventures per one chance and it always counts. its not like the snack stand that had a chance of no cotton candy. Since I am at 5 legendaries this is about 6 hours. I put them to the house when I have to go AFK overnight and then I quest it back up. I don't always get gems from the houses so it really is not "lost" income. I was actually more worried about finishing the snack quest because they were not every time and the time until next harvest is high enough I cannot stay on the game but low enough I waste many hours between the harvests.

I already loaded up my balloons and I have about 5-6 troll camps ready to go. Alas I only have 66 cotton candies...

Yup part 3 is eezy peezy .

Managed to collect the cotton candy, but slow to start the elemental quests
