    Eggs-cellent BW2 Easter Event 2017 
    Posted in Bush Whacker 2.

    Happy Easter Bushwhackers!

    The Easter Bunny is back in town to bring the friendly competition of his egg hunt! That's what Easter is all about, right? The yummy chocolate eggs!

    Every 8 hours, you can compete against 4 residents of the Commons in the Easter Egg Hunt! Plus, after your first Hunt of the day, you can hide eggs to set-up for the next hunt and whack monsters to keep the fields safe for the children!

    Having trouble winning? Why not use some bonuses, available from the shady character in the wizard hat in the Event Area. Boosts are available for purchase for Easter Tokens after you complete your first Egg Hunt of the event.

    Help make the eggs with the three turn-in stations! With all the Unpainted Eggs, Dye and Wax, we can make some pretty egg designs!

    Chef Elza will have her bevy of recipes for you to help her prepare to have an awesome Easter feast!

    Speaking of Easter feasts, lambs are so very cute, aren’t they? Help Lambchop save her fellow fluffy lambs from ending up on Easter feast tables.

    Grab Jelly Beans and Peeps every 20 hours for extra Easter progress and tokens! Plus, each of the turn-in station owners will have a bonus quest for you to complete, and you'll get to help the poor confused soul deal with Easter moving around.

    New for 2017:
    This year's event adds EIGHT new quests on top of the ones offered in previous years, so there's tons to do all throughout the event! You can help one character make a Chocolate Easter Egg, because who doesn't need more sugar? And you'll be able to make a custom hat! Check back later in the event for the quests to unlock.

    Plus, the World Wide Easter Egg Hunt has been updated for this year! You can find up to 75 Eggs, hidden in new spots, depending on your progress in the game.

    FAQ

    How do I participate in the Easter Egg Hunt?
    Talk to the NPC under the Easter Egg Hunt banner to be teleported to the hunting zone.

    What do I do in the Easter Egg Hunt zone?
    Click on all the crates, barrels, rocks and bushes trying to find as many eggs as you can. There are only 20 eggs hidden in all the doodads.

    How do I get a perfect score in the Easter Egg Hunt?
    You need to collect all 20 eggs - basically not letting any of the other hunters find any.

    I’m too slow at the Hunt. How can I be better?
    The NPC with the wizard hat in the event area of the Commons sells boosts for Easter Tokens. Speed up your character and distract the other hunters with his wares. Also, travel in a circle, starting in the area closest to where everyone else is being distracted. And don't click on the searchable items themselves, click beside them. Clicking on the item causes you to walk slower.

    When will the last quest unlock?
    All quests will be unlocked by the 10th day of the event.

    What contributes to my 100% progress?
    Turning in the Unpainted Eggs, the Dye and the Wax as well as completing the Easter Egg Hunt and the quests for the folks in the event area.

    Why do I want to ask friends for help?
    It increases the amount of progress you get from doing a turn-in.

    Do I have to do the achievements?
    No. Completing the goals for the achievements is totally optional. You get either a large energy pack or a title for your character from them, no event progress.

    Where can I see the achievements available and how to get them?
    Either on the holiday dialog, the achievements dialog, or on the blog.

    When can I do the World Wide Easter Egg Hunt?
    The World Wide Easter Egg Hunt starts on Easter Sunday - April 16th - and lasts for the rest of the event.

    Where do I find World Wide Easter Egg Hunt Eggs?
    Once the hunt has started, you can find eggs by clicking them in many of the zones in the world. Eggs are hidden behind rocks and trees and in tricky to access locations in normal zones, secret areas, and adventure zones all over the world. Not every area has an egg hidden in it. There are 75 eggs hidden throughout the world in total, but you'll need to be done most of the content in the game to find them all.
