Re: Lawn of Doom Hats

I've found this to be hit or miss throughout the various times we've had this type of event.  Sometimes I've been able to visit the bat or gnome twice daily, sometimes not.  I haven't found a pattern to it, not that I've put a lot of effort into it.

As for the packs, like with everything else in the sticker shop, RNG will play a major factor.  I suspect that one might need to spend many, many coins on this pack in order to fill in last year's items, while receiving many consumables.

I got the Jason mask for rose today,

    It's as joec2475 said, we have to wait exactly 12 hours between keys. It's like this in every one of these events so far. But I feel the same way as you, pandareno1999. Sometimes it's hard to keep track of when we did the last one if we try to do it twice a day.

  • Also, my friend said there is nothing for Scientist this time. That does not make sense, so he was likely trolling me.

    I definitely waited more than 12 hours yesterday but was only allowed one visit.

    Well, I've managed to get four so far. (Out of 12?) Got Purple Top Hat for super brainz, nougat for all star, bat hat for soldier and rusty for the pirate. I haven't been checking at exactly 12 hours but, I've tried to get as close as possible. So what happens if I get them all before the event ends? Do I just get consumables?

    I believe the bat will tell you he's done for the season.  Please do report back if I'm wrong.

    There were usually just consumable sticker packs for some particular keys. Don't be disappointed when you get one. Everyone gets them. On the last key, the bat would say that it's its last day in town. After you searched for the last key, the bat would be gone.

    We'll have the packs for sale after the event runs out. Last year I had to get  2(?) hats from the packs even though I visited the bat everyday. I can't recall how much they cost though.

    Thought I would mention the 2016 Lawn of Doom packs are in the sticker shop now. They are 40,000 coins and give 5 consumables and 2 hats per pack. When you get all 14 hats from 2016 you just get 7 consumables. (This is contrary to the 5 stickers the description says. I hope the error is the description not the packs.)

    On another note I am now up to 5 hats from 2017 and 1 pack of consumables. (Which I adore, I may blow a bunch of coins on 2016 packs just for the consumables.) One thing I did notice watching the video is the Scientist and the Corn didn't seem to get hats this year. Maybe it was just forgotten in the video? Or did they forget the Scientist and Corn this year? Or perhaps they will get their fall holiday item for thanksgiving this year? (Like they did with the Turkey Zombies in GW1) Does anyone have any information?

    Oh and I will let everyone know if and when there is an end to the bat quests. (Assuming I get there first.) I'm also keeping track of each quest's reward in case that matters.

    I think Germanshu just forgot or missed it while he was editing his video clip.

    I got the corn hat yesterday and it looks cool.

    Today I got a pack of consumables from the bat, pretty nice as long as it doesn't prevent me from getting all of this year's hats.  Then I went to the sticker shop, bought three of the 2016 packs and got only consumables.  I wonder if I already have all of last year's hats or if the RNG for the packs is terrible.

    Though not new to this year, the consumables look pretty awesome and I'm glad I have a bunch.

    I got all of them 2 at a time. I think it is unlikely that you are having bad luck, they seemed fairly guaranteed. Might want to check your stickerbook for confirmation.

    Once you got all 2016 hats, the packs only give consumables.

    The bat should give 2017 hats, which will be sell as sticker packs after the event finished.

    It seems I reached the end of the event last night. In total I received 13 hats and 3 packs of consumables. I didn't see if the bat said anything special because I was so used to skipping his dialogue. What is odd is the scientist didn't get a hat. Also, the chest is still in my backyard but the bat has left, so it might be a bug? My brother is also doing the event so I can report if he also finishes the event. Side note, am I the only one who thinks that the bat should stay the whole time and just give packs when you get everything?

    Same!  Got a total of 13 hats and missing the scientist hat.  Thought there was a glitch somewhere.  Good to know Im not alone and this is probably the norm.

    Bat is gone from the plaza, but chest is still there.  Dont know if its a bug or glitch.

    It occurs to me, should someone with a twitter/braver than me tweet the dev team in case the scientist missing a hat was an accident? Better to let them know before the event is over.

    Consumables again today.  I think it's rigged so you need to buy the packs after the event is over.  Id' have to hunt through the sticker book to be sure, but I'm pretty certain I didn't get 13 or more hats..

    I think this's by purpose. I remembered last year, I visited the bat every day until the bat was gone. But I still don't have all the 2016 hats, until I bought the remaining hats this year from sticker pack.

    It makes sense that you don't have all the hats yet. It started the 18th right? In total there are 16 rewards. 13 are hats and 3 are packs. (While not totally finished my brother is showing the same pattern.) Done once a day it would take more than the time allotted to get everything.

    On the scientist note, (I did a bit of research) I watched the video posted by Asukojo which has the complete sticker book. Inspecting Scientist hats I noticed a few things. On page 586 there is the dummy mummy buried with the spooky squash buckets. But just before the buckets is another special sticker "Bipolar Battery Bot." Aside from being special it also comes after the "Gem Brain Drain." (Normally an indication of a different type of sticker.) Additionally it follows the same pattern that the soldier does. (Halloween Hat 2016 -> Halloween Hat 2017 -> Boss Hunt Hats.) So I suspect that this is the missing hat. I only hope it comes in the 2017 packs and wasn't mistakenly left out of the event. (Force players to buy at least one after event pack?)

    I also realized I had finished the event and (in my opinion) rudely failed to provide a checklist. Hidden with spoilers in case people want to be surprised. Most of these can be found under the class's Hats unless otherwise noted. They should be located after TiZ stickers and before FLF (I think)

    Really wish I could get a large number of consumables cheaply. 40K for 7 stickers ranging from x1-5 each seems too expensive.

  • Great list for both years for the Hats. I was asking same thing yesterday. where is the scientist hat, but me and friends couldn't figure out if there was one.  List will be nice for everyone. Thanks.

    You can view all of the 2017 hats by finding germanshu's youtube video on the topic.

  • @Final_Zidane This list is fantastic. I had been completely frustrated browsing Google for this list. I dont like watching YouTube videos for a list. So this was great. Thanks so much for taking the time to write it!!
