Superheroes 2: Crafting

I've crafted the lucite and I am 900 cards away from the book store. With 11 days left I am sure I can get them all.

The lucite is unique, btw. I think they (the Issue 1 prizes) all are.

4500 trading cards to get all the act 1 prizes and it looks like they roll over into acts 2 and 3 too. I think it roughly comes down to needing about 375 cards a day - about 190 bandits you need to tap per day (no counting friends visits).

I think I've been hitting about 450 a day, so I should be fine - but, kind of like the social prizes, there's almost zero room for error on the crafting right now.

I think their estimates were way off this time around. I'm blasting through the main track with knuckles, but I have serious concerns about the crafting and social prizes quotas.

What's your secret? I haven't crafted anything and I'm still 1000 away from the bookstore. Am I missing a source of trading cards besides the bandits?

You may get a daily challenge that rewards cards.

They DONT roll over. Thats why it says act 1 2 3 etc. And not act 1-2-3, 2-3 and 3

Does anybody know if we can craft multiples of the zenith city buildings?

I cant check now but you can see yhe list of unique items for the old ones(havent done the check and listings for the new ones)

I reckon we need to get ~330 cards a day to be able to craft all the Act 1 key items. We're just starting day 4 so right now you should have about 1000 cards to be on track, assuming you're not crafting band-aids. Here are my calcs if interested:

2410 - Springfield Books
785 - Lucite Statue
965 - Collector's Car
325 - Lucite Container

Total = 4285 cards

Act 1 length = 13.5 days

4285/13 = 330. Used 13 to divide to allow ~12 hours grace on starting point.

That's great to know! Hmm, hope I can get all 4 items. Not sure what I should get first. Feel like I should save for the building, but not sure.

Will the currency roll over between acts? Like if I have some left over after buying what I want, will I be able to use the trading cards for crafting in the other acts?

I might have gotten cards from a daily challenge. Mainly I just check back frequently. The critters stop spawning when you have too many in your town.
