Eagle Hunter Quest and Eagle Feather Collection Mission


The new 11 day quest is based on an ancient and still enduring tradition in Mongolia wherein young men and women hunt eagles.  Darryl is dressed in his version of traditional Mongolian clothing here.

This post now is complete.




The Collection Mission is for Eagle Feathers and the Reward is another Stove House Recipe in the form of the Pilaf Recipe.  For new players:  please note that once you collect the Reward in the form of any Stove House Recipe from a completed Collection Mission, you then must collect it from your Gift Box in order to be able to use it in the Stove House!

The Premium Tree required for this is the Lime Tree.  Please note that you now can apply Super Watering Cans to individual Trees even when in the Tree Nursery to obtain the Collection Item!

Pilaf Recipe
xxxxxxxxxx

Ingredients:  2 Beef, 2 Carrots, 1 Wheat, 1 Garlic, 1 Red Bell Pepper, 6 Power

This is a simple dish.  Maximum time is 40 seconds so watch the clock and tap 'Finish' as soon as the option appears.  You should be able to prepare this in 27 seconds... the Red Bell Pepper will be down to 3 Flavour Points when the 'Finish' option appears, so it is the only tricky ingredient here.  If you set the timer for 27 seconds, however, all ingredients can be placed in the skillet at once.

Some Strategy Tips:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If you are a low level player or lack sufficient Island Mastery or expansions for some of the later tasks, do complete the Collection Mission FIRST.  Recently, the developers have been including Stove House Recipes in other activities so you may need it at some point even if you do not complete this Quest sequence.  After the 11 day Quest expires, the new Recipe should appear in the Market but the price will be in premium cash in the form of RC.  If the actual Quest sequence can be accessed and completed later from the Lighthouse, you will be unable to perform the Collection Mission originally linked with it.  So do it now!

Premium Item purchases:  In the past, premium Animals and Machines were not used much in the time-restricted Quests but recently, they HAVE been included.  You can find premium Animals and Machines randomly in your Green Mystrons Shop.  Try to make certain that you purchase a Coffee Machine, either with RC or with Green Mystrons.  It does appear now in more than one Quest as well as the products from it that may appear in the Ocean Cafe and so on.  You really need all the premium Trees, Animals and Machines now in this game!

Island Tasks Strategy Tips:  All Island Machines require Mastery to produce specific items.  As far as harvesting Wood Trees is concerned, you cannot use Watering Cans to speed growth but all the Weather Farm Aids do operate on these Trees as well as on the Crops and other Island Trees.  If you have a task that requires a specific wood harvest, using the Electric Saw can be beneficial as you will receive 2 pieces of wood for each harvest instead of 1.

Upgraders:  Not every one is willing to spend the premium cash (RC) to upgrade the various Upgraders but if you are, you can use the new Burger Machine Upgrader in the course of this Quest for Batch Production of Steak Burgers for the Collection Mission as well as some of the older Upgraders (Holstein Cow, Dutch Mill, Chicken Coop).  The special Products that you can make at higher levels of the Upgraders have become increasingly important in the game.  As far as regular products are concerned, you will find that Steak Burgers are required again and again, oddly enough.

Monkey Boost:  If and when you choose to use the Monkey Boost is for you to decide, but lately I have found it very useful to use on days when I perform a time-restricted Quest.  If you do use Batch Production for the tasks that involve Animals and Machines, you can reduce the amount of OP needed by setting the Monkey Boost to OP reduction.

The Eagle Hunters
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx



This is a real tradition and the word 'Hunter' perhaps has the wrong connotations in the West.  These Hunters of Mongolia and Kazakhstan do not kill the Golden Eagles but rather catch them in their bare hands in order to tame them.  Among them was a 13 year old girl named Ashol Pan.  Although the tradition was male-dominated, her father chose to share his skills both with his daughter and his son.

Darryl refers to a real film as well, a recent 2016 documentary named 'The Eagle Hunter' about Ashol Pan.  You should be able to find it on Amazon.
