Re: Not receiving gems fighting against Zomboss in Penney’s Pursuit

@MAGICDAVESHROOM I have been using Turkey Pult, Pyre Vine and Explode-o-Vine. I have played against Zomboss 4 times which equal to 12 games total and no gems. Thank you. 🙂

  • @btznh09f9eta Hmmm....that's odd~~~ i am using the same combination as you but once i use explode o vine directly in front of zomboss (to temporarily get rid of the turkeys), the gems and coins will come out in a bunch.

    @Perfume-shroom92 Hi, I played zomboss in Penney’s Pursuit again today and i have and i did use Explode o vine right in front of zomboss today and out of all 3 games, I had received 1 gem. I repeatedly kept doing it because you put explode o vine in front of zomboss and it clears the turkeys only for seconds. I don’t know what to do. It’s disappointing. Thank you 😊
  • @btznh09f9eta I don't know how to help you then. I get about 4-5 gems per zomboss fight. I don't keep on putting EoV and the zomboss don't keep on dropping gems. You need to stun it and kill it to a certain level for it to drop coins and gems. So far, I haven't heard any problems from anyone else after we started the eov trick.

    @btznh09f9eta 

    What level plants are you using?

    I can kill zomboss in about a minute with a level 5 turkeypult.

    Once the levels have counted down and it goes into the bonus phase i plant an explode o vine at column 5, row 4 which gets rid of most of the turkeys.

    From then on zomboss produces more units for my caulipowers to hypnotise and i wait until 10 seconds until the end and plant another explode o vine (having dug up the other one first) and a big shower of coins, gems and sprouts come out from hiding and i collect them.

    I usually get 6 to 8 gems per match.

    @MAGICDAVESHROOM Hi, Turkey pult, explode o vine and Pyre Vine are level 4. I also use bombard mint and that stuns zomboss and that is at level 8. I tried to not use the bombard mint today and last night to see if that could of been the reason but nothing still happened. I don’t have Caulipower, so i use bombard mint because it stuns zomboss. I really just don’t want to play it anymore if I don’t receive anything for it. Thank you so much for all your help and all others trying to help me! 😊

    I found that just six level 5 turkeypults are needed as well as the pyre vines for the initial stun.

    I'm surprised you can't get more gems out of zomboss.

    @Perfume-shroom92 Plz, don’t worry. I don’t know what else to do myself. It’s just very disappointing and it makes me not to happy to play and fight and compete against a game and receive nothing. Thank you for all your help. 😊
  • @btznh09f9eta Don't think too much about it. You should have no problems with all the other zomboss. I think its just the problem with this zomboss and turkey in combination. Every other zomboss should give you gems and coins.

    @Perfume-shroom92 It just kind of stinks because I can’t play it if it isn’t going to give me gems and the coins. This is the first zomboss that i had problems with. I have problems in the Arena a lot since December of 2020. Not all the time and or every tournament, but when i do have problems. I really do have them! Happy gaming! 😊

    @btznh09f9eta   I think it might be that you need Explode-o-vine at level 5 to bounce the turkeys away from zomboss for this trick to work.  

    Question, have you tried planting explode-o-vine immediately after Bombardmint so it gets a boost?  It might just enough to bounce the turkeys away.

  • @eieio_31310Yes, i did try everything but then I gave up because it was too aggravating to play and get nowhere, but thank you for some advice. I appreciate all those who try to help! 😊

    Turkeypult is really effective against penny's pursuit zomboss, but it's so stunned that it can't move so a collection of gems and coins accumulates under it.

    Planting explode o vine next to it about 10 seconds before the end knocks your turkeys over it which releases the large pile of gems.
