Gnome Finder Giddy Park
Did the gnome finder battle for three bulbs how often does it come up? I’ve only seen it once.

- @TheSprinter85 Yes, I saw that - very good news!!
I spend a ton of time in Giddy Park Public and haven't ever seen the Gnome hunt pop up so I uncharacteristically set my Park to private and jumped down to shoot targets and some weeds this morning and had the event pop up after somewhere between 5 and 10 minutes of goofing around. I'll try again tomorrow after I'm sure a full day has passed and see if the 3 Bulbs is repeatable.
what exactly is this? I saw the gnome finder today and it was filled up more than the other day. Do we go around the park looking for gnomes? TIA
I went back to Giddy Park in Private and performed the exact same requirements to see if I got the gnome event again, about 5 minutes passed, but it was the bounties event, rather than the gnome one, so it seems to be down to luck! 🙂
From what I've observed, this is the sequence of events (Private setting)
1. Ride one of the rides to collect coins (might be carousel, gondola, etc)
2. Hidden treasure chest
3. Bounty skirmish
4. Trolley target shoot
5. Hidden gnome
So, if you enter Giddy Park and the 1st event you see is the Trolley target shoot, the gnome event will be next. What's random is where you are in the list when you enter Giddy Park.
The fastest way to get through the list is to actually do the event so that it ends faster.
- @FinallyInSeattle Wow, you must've been there ages?? Do you know how long the cycle takes, roughly?
Great observations, thank you! - @BlixGoblin I don't know either. I had the gnome finder but I didn't find anything in Giddy Park.

Sorry, BlixGoblin, somehow missed your post!
You get a message saying something like the gnomes are trying to steal our gold & go down to the park. There's an invisible shooty gnome, who becomes visible when you follow the gnome finder to a small glittery pile in the park.
You vanquish the shooty gnome & get a gnome boss, who if you kill, awards a pot of gold throwing coins out & 3 prize bulbs.
It definitely works in private parks & if you have a friend with you who also does damage to the boss, they will get the rewards as well.
I don't know exactly what happens in public parks. All I ever saw was a black and white meter with the words gnome finder by it.. Is that it? I did look around the park when I saw the meter was half full yesterday but didn't see anything unusal.
- @BlixGoblin Yes, you need to travel around in different directions until the meter starts showing some yellowy-orange to show you've started going in the right direction.
Carry on moving around until the meter fills with red & you should find a small pile on the ground. You won't see anything until you find this pile, then the shooty gnome will suddenly appear.
I think there's a time limit on finding him.
Once you get the boss, you'll see the crossed swords indicating a battle, so don't give up if you die, get back down to that indicator & carry on.
