Salad Machine Final Touch Mission

The final material for the Salad Machine in the form of a Wooden Bucket now is available.  It is tied to a traditional Quest sequence called 'The Final Touch'.  If you still are missing Spoons and Forks, you can find them in the Purple Mystery Shop for 10 Purple Mystrons and 15 Purple Mystrons respectively.  The Pipes cost 12 Purple Mystrons each.  You gain Purple Mystrons when you VOTE in the Farm Beauty Contest.  Even if you do not fancy your chances in the Contest, do vote as you will receive a Gold Treasure Chest containing valuable farm aids each day for doing so.  You have 3 Votes.  If you choose 'Neighbour Farms' and vote for Harvest Moon or Rosewood, I will be very grateful!  It is the simple act of Voting on a daily basis, however, that will benefit YOU, wherever you choose to cast those three Votes.

Actually, I do need your Votes for Harvest Moon Farm if I am to obtain the final Reward of the Avatar.  Why do I deserve your Votes more than any one else?  I cannot answer that, apart from citing the work I do on this site to make information available freely to other Farmers.  I would tell you, however, that without your Votes at this critical stage, I have no chance of gaining the final Reward.  I had not noticed previously that the totals needed jump suddenly from 200 Votes to 250 and then to a whopping 500 in order to reach the final Reward.  In other words, from needing 250 Votes between your score of 5250 to 5500, you need a total of 6000 to obtain the Avatar and RC Reward...  So without your help, I cannot hope to reach that goal in the three days that remain.  I have been obtaining 70 Votes each day from two of the Characters but less from the other two.

'The Final Touch' is a time-restricted Mission that runs only through the 29th of this month.  As there probably will be a new time-restricted Mission on Friday as well, best to get this out of the way if at all possible as quickly as you can.

The new Salad Machine, when completed,  makes a dizzying array of Salads.  For some, you will need the Oil Press, but not for all.  It will be interesting to see if the Oil Press is added to the Market now for those farmers who either had not begun to play the game or were not at high enough levels to perform the Quest when it was active.  There is a section at the end of this post that lists all Salads and their ingredients.

This can be a difficult Mission for low level Farmers, but you have a week to complete it for the final Material in the Salad Machine construction.  Remember though, if you cannot complete it, you still should be able to buy the Materials ultimately for 1 RC each or use Purple Mystrons to purchase them in the Purple Mystron Shop.  Every part of this Mission that you complete will give you 1 Wooden Barrel, so try to forge ahead with it, even if you cannot go through to the end.  Do not be discouraged if it is too difficult though, as you will have an opportunity, as previously stated, to finish the Machine either by using RC or Purple Mystrons.  If the two Farm Beauty Contests so far are any indication, there will be few days when there is NOT a current Contest running, so you will continue to be able to earn Purple Mystrons as long as you register and Vote.

The total number of dishes required in tasks has changed a couple of times.  Will try to make certain I log the latest version here.

Good Neighbour Tip:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

One of the tasks requires that you fertilise Neighbours' Farms 50 times.  What this means is that your Neighbours must have at least 5 Crops that are not mature or 5 Trees that are not ready to be harvested in order for your actions to count.  Please do keep some immature Crops and Trees on your Farm while this Quest is active.  Usually a Neighbour can earn 5 Points for harvesting your Crops but not for this task.

If you are looking for good, active Neighbours, feel free to join my group, Family Farm Seaside Freyashawk on Facebook.  The members are active and helpful.

Strategies:

This Mission can be brutal for new or low level Farmers in terms of the amount of Power needed.  Make Cooked Dishes that appear as Ingredients in a Task in advance if possible.  These include:

Cornmeal
Lavender Cheese
Coffee Cookies
Orange Crumble
Batter (for Orange Crumble)
Sandwich
Coconut Milk
Soft Dough (ingredient that is used in more than one Recipe)

You will need a lot of Corn and a lot of Beef, incidentally.

The Salad Machine is very cool, by the way.  An actual Spoon and Fork (presumably the ones that you obtained through your labour!) toss the Salad as you watch.  I do hope they will add the Oil Press to the Market for the farmers who could not perform the Quest connected with its acquisition.

NOTE: Totals may be different.  When I logged this early this morning with Harvest Moon Farm, the totals for many Crops and Dishes were higher.  Now performing the tasks for Rosewood Farm, they are lower.  It might be a change for every one or may depend on your Level.  Anyway, have done what I could to be precise!

The Final Touch I
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Darryl:  Wow, the Salad Machine is coming along really nicely!  But I feel that we're still missing something, but what?  I hope Felicia has some nice ideas... Let's go ask her, but first let's feed the animals!

Harvest 100 Wheat
  Skip for 50 RC

Collect 100 Milk
  Skip for 50 RC

Harvest 15 Oranges
  Skip for 15 RC

Rewards: 1000 Coins, 210 XP, 1 Wooden Bucket

Darryl:  I think I'm done here.  Let's go see Felicia!

The Final Touch II
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Darryl:  Felicia heard all about a 'Veggie Fair'.  That would be a great place to get some ideas.  But first, let's start with the most important meal of the day.  Can you help prepare breakfast?

Prepare 5 bowls of Sunrise Porridge
  skip for 5 RC
  Each requires 1 Orange Crumble and 1 Cornmeal

Prepare 20 bottles of Apple Milkshake
  Skip for 20 RC
  Each requires 1 Milk and 1 Apple Juice

Prepare 2 loaves of Whole Oat Fruit Bread
  Skip for 2 RC

  N.B.  For each, you need 1 Fruit Butter and 1 Oat Bread
  Each Fruit Butter needs 1 Apple Jelly and 3 Cherries
  Each Apple Jelly needs 2 Maple Syrup and 6 Apple Jam

Rewards: 1000 Coins, 210 XP, 1 Wooden Bucket

Darryl:  Never knew a healthy breakfast can be delicious food!  Thanks for the help!

The Final Touch III
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Darryl:  This fair is bigger than I thought!  There are so many farmers from all over the world!  I think we will see some very cool things here.  Where shall we start?

Fertilise your Neighbours' Farms 50 times
  Skip for 25 RC

  N.B.  If all Neighbours visited have growing Crops, this means visits to 10 Neighbours... if not, you will need to visit more.  Fertilising Trees counts as well but if you harvest Crops, those actions will not count towards this Task.

Produce 80 bundles of Angora Hair
  Skip for 40 RC

Prepare 30 Cheese Salad
  Skip for 30 RC
  Each Cheese Salad needs 5 Honey and 2 Cheddar Cheese (both can be requested as Free Gifts)

Rewards: 1000 Coins, 220 XP, 1 Wooden Bucket

Darryl:  I'm getting good ideas already!  Let's see what else we can visit!

The Final Touch IV
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Darryl:  That looks like a Belgian stand.  Let's take a look... Mmm, what's in it?  Oh, I see, so there's apples, almonds and to top it off, mayonnaise!

Harvest 20 Apples
  Skip for 20 RC

Produce 10 bottles of Mayonnaise
  Skip for 5 RC

Harvest 10 Almonds
  Skip for 10 RC

Reward: 1000 Coins, 220 XP, 1 Wooden Barrel


Darryl:  What a yummy combination!  I would have never thought of this!


The Final Touch V
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Darryl:  What's next?  This looks really exotic!  The farmer said that he's from Turkey and he likes to have salad with grains or lentils.  Sounds good.  Let's have a taste!

Harvest 30 Rice
  Skip for 15 RC*

Produce 30 Glasses of Grape Juice
  Skip for 15 RC

Prepare 30 plates of Gyros
  Skip for 30 RC

  N.B  Each Gyros requires 2 Beef and 1 Sandwich
  Each Sandwich requires 2 Beef and 2 Cornbread
  Note that Corn Meal is made in the Kitchen as well.   This task takes a great deal of Power and a huge pile of Beef!  A total of 100 Beef, I believe is needed to complete 30 Gyros and a total of 60 Cornbread.

*(Originally for Harvest Moon at Level 83, the task was:

Harvest 50 Rice
  Skip for 25 RC)

Reward: 1000 Coins, 230 XP, 1 Wooden Barrel

Darryl:  This also tasted delicious.  I should try new things more often!

The Final Touch VI
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Darryl:  There still are so many stands to visit, but where has Felicia gone?  Oh, there she is!  She was looking at some cute wooden buckets for the Salad Machine.  That's really sweet of her!

  Each requqires 1 Soft Dough and 2 Lychees
