Yup I’m fully aware there are many questions regarding today’s update looming. But there are also many questions about the Wild West Event…remember that thing? Still going on for another 2 weeks…
So i’m going to break things up. A couple Wild West Posts, a couple Level 60+ posts…it’s all coming I promise. Just give me time to write it. 🙂
Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Time to hitch up the wagons and head out west, because the Wild West has hit our Springfields! With bandits to tie up, guns to sling, gold to pan & gold ole’ Homer getting everyone all riled up!
With so many layers to this event, it’s easy to get confused with what’s going on. But, that’s where we come it! To guide you through the ins and outs and break it all down in a manageable way, that anyone can quickly understand.
In this post we’re going to break down the General Store, for Act 3. By the time we’re done you’ll have the ins, the outs & and the know how to fully understand why you’re getting a cleaned out message for Act 3!
So let’s get to it shall we?
We broke the basics down in another post already. So if you’re still confused on the General Store check out this post.
So let’s start with the changes for Act 3….
The General Store comes with prizes. Prizes you’ll unlock each day just by doing hand ins at the store.
Here’s a look at the 14 Prizes you can unlock during Act 3:
Day 1
Days 2, 6, 9 & 13
Day 3 & 10
Day 4
Day 5
Day 7
Day 8 & 11
Day 12
Day 14 (last day)
You’ll see an Up Next icon in the store after Day 14…there is no Act 4. So don’t worry about it. Day 14 is the last day of the Event.
Also, if you miss a day…you can go back and get that prize. So don’t panic if you miss a day or 2. You will be able to go back and get them 🙂 (as long as it’s in the same act. Don’t skip the donuts because they will disappear when the Event ends…
Now let’s talk about the caps…..
If you see this message popup in your town
DON’T PANIC!! This just means you’ve reached your TNT cap from the General Store for the day, and you can earn more tomorrow. Think of this as EA’s way to slow you down, and prevent you from speeding through the Act in 1 day.
And YES…this has been happening for the ENTIRE Event. Many of you just didn’t hit the caps during Acts 1 or 2. I promise it’s nothing new.
This Event is fairly easy, as in you shouldn’t have a problem earning enough TNT to earn all of the prizes before Act 3 ends (As long as you regularly tap…remember it takes regular tapping to unlock everything. You can’t just play once a day and expect to get everything)
The Cap DOES NOT apply to TNT in general. You can collect as much as you want via Bandits, Town Plaza Tasks etc. You can also use donuts to speed through. It only applies to how much TNT you can earn from the General Store in a given day.
So What Are The Caps for Each Day?
Here are the TNT earning caps for Act 3 (Remember these are via the General Store only. There is no cap on TNT you can earn via tapping bandits…)
| Day | TNT Cap |
| 1 | 2,700 |
| 2 | 5,800 |
| 3 | 8,700 |
| 4 | 11,600 |
| 5 | 14,500 |
| 6 | 17,400 |
| 7 | 20,300 |
| 8 | 23,200 |
| 9 | 26,100 |
| 10 | 29,000 |
| 11 | 32,500 |
| 12 | 36,000 |
| 13 | 39,500 |
After Day 13 the cap is essentially lifted…as Day 14 you can get up to 144,000
This is a running total. So if you skip a day you’ll be able to collect the TNT to make up the difference.
And there you have it my friends the breakdown for the Act 3 General Store caps…
