Summer Solstice: Chapter One - Quest 1 Guide

Quest 1:1 Giovanni’s Rockhenge I of IV Guide

Giovanni and Magnus at the Rockhenge

 Hail Adventurers!

The Summer Solstice event is here! The Summer Solstice is broken up into three consecutive Chapters that unlock over time. The summer solstice is approaching and Magnus has decided we should build a Rockhenge to better commune with the sun. Giovanni is hands on helping out Magnus drawing plans already. Let’s all help together!

Sunspot is the final quest reward

Summer Solstice is almost here

If you are level 19 or higher, you will see the following pop-ups. Click on the “Let’s go” button to begin.

First we will harvest the Copper Mine. Then we will send Magnus to the Ancient Watchtower. While he's exploring for a short whilewe will send two Heroes to the Gateway of Luck to find the Sun Maps. As time progresses(or if you use Quickspells) we will continue to harvest the Copper Mine.

The Copper Mine

The first purchase is about 250 gold. Any more and it starts to cost crowns.

Go ahead and pull out the Copper Mine onto your kingdom. The Copper Mine will take about 20 minutes to integrate itself onto your property. Once it's ready it will yield 2 Copper and takes about 1 hour before it is ready to be harvested again.

If you want to use Quick Spells to quickly bypass the timer for the quest requirement you will need a total of six Quick Spells. This is because the Copper Mine uses up 2 at a time. (*Shakes fist*)

Tip: If you have the Lion statue, Temple, or Scarecrow. then position them by your Copper Mine before you harvest it to get the most out of your mine.

The Cheap Mason, Temporary Hero

Before we send off our Heroes to the Gateway of Luck I'd like to mention something about the Cheap Mason, Temporary Hero.

He's a fun fellow. What a grin!

Cheap mason is available from the Marketplace in the “Special Heroes” tab. You can also pick one as you are sending off  your Heroes to the Places of Legend.

Which ever you choose - do not send off your Heroes without him. This is because the drop rate of the event items revolves around having the Cheap Mason in your party. That's not to say that the event items won't drop without him but it'll certainly be a lot tougher.

Tip: Don't forget to read up on the Summer Solstice FAQs for more helpful hints about the event.

The Ancient Watchtower

1 rorch is all you need to explore this place

 Let's send off Magnus to the Ancient Watchtower.Since he's not in this Place of Legend for a long time there's no need to rush his journey.

The Gateway of Luck

2 ladders and 1 torch for each exploration mission

Now it's time to send off a Hero of our choice with the Cheap Mason to the Gateway of Luck. Our task is to find the Sun Maps. We will need to find a total of six Sun Maps.

Not the best yeld but the Sun Map is all that matters here

Tip 1: With the Cheap Mason you should be getting these Sun Maps on every third trip. If not, clear your app cache and start again.

Tip 2: Don't forget to rotate through your Heroes. If you keep sending Magnus in sequence, it actually lessens your odds. A good example would be: Magnus with Cheap Mason, then send Rafael with Cheap Mason, then Yvette with Cheap Mason. Then back to Magnus and so on. Feel free to substitute the Heroes of your choice.

Tip 3: The Sun Maps can be traded back and forth via Ship to Global Market or to your Alliance

Quest Complete:

Didn't you get a message from the Phoenix when we first found you Gio?

Once your quest objectives are completed you are rewarded with a Golden Vault Padlock. Great job!

Until the next guide --

Happy Playing!
