I saw this on Facebook
Well i did see the screenshot where the chest give out a straight 600 snowflakes . But grinding? I need 210 now.
Ok i take it all back. Been grinding 12 hrs a day.
Got 90 snowflakes yesterday and 110 today.
I have it crafting without getting any from chests, so it is possible.
Clearly Gree doesn't feel a need to post clear beginning and end dates for this kind of promotion. Snowflakes were dropping two days before they even announced the event. If I remember correctly they did finally put an "Event End Time" but they didn't specifically specify what the "event" was. Was it the chest the jewels came in? Was it the duration snowflakes would drop? Was it the length of time the armor would be craftable? We can only guess.
On a side note the armor is strong. Normal version is as strong as a typical plus DFA. Too bad they made the directions for this event so confusing.
Yeah i saw the snowflake milestones in the blitz rewards but dint want to stop and risk gree changing the rewards in the last few seconds and me not making it, so i just ground out the last 50 to be sure i'd get it.
I wasn't about to surrender my holiday to Gree's cruel RNG. I have no regrets about it and it makes it easier to just say screw this game, along with all the bugs introduced in the pet update.
Maybe it's round two, I mean it's snowing and winter in most parts of the world. Anyways, GREE need to work on their programming and communication, currently it looks like someone who was half asleep who programmed the event and got the dates and distributions wrong and decided it would be fine leaving the way it is, praying that no one would notice and complain.
