I really wanted the steeds and wings on all my accounts. The blue wings are really great! They match some really good cosmetic outfits.
Making time to play hundreds of hours during the holiday season while dealing with real life was simply not possible. After greatly reducing my goals, all I could manage was the easy steed on one account by wicked cheesing the event. Do not ask.
The problem was not the event structure. Every single thing I wanted was within my capabilities as a player to earn. The problem was the colossal time investment required within the context of a limited time event. Even after figuring out how to cheese the event, I calculated it would still take way too much time to earn a set of the blue wings on one account. I could probably pull it off by purchasing an Otto Box and an Improved Otto Box and using maximum cheese. (Oh my gosh, that would have s u c k e d.)
Initially, I tried to run the event in not cheese mode. Event bugs made that impossible.
The holidays were really rough this year. I could have used a fun diversion. I sincerely give credit to the developers for trying to make the event Sophie friendly and offering some really desireable rewards. Sadly, is was still hopeless.
