I started a brand new city in the middle of this event, and let me tell you, even with multiple cities, I still forget what it is like in the very early stages. I am stuck on a quest requiring 2 enchantment items. Two enchantment items!!! I would never even blink at this quest in my other cities, it's so easy. I rushed to get an MA built, but each enchantment takes 16 hours. I don't get any from neighborly visits (or at least, I haven't been lucky enough), I have one province available for tourney, so that's not very helpful. No timer instants, not enough goods to complete more provinces. It is really a good lesson in humility.
I'll get through it, but sitting for 2 days on it while the event timer ticks down is enlightening in its frustration.
Yes! This is a big reason why I've been kind toward this event when others are very frustrated or bored or whatever (for reasons I certainly understand). But for a small town? It's challenging and I'm thankful that my small ones will complete it. One relic makes me happy there. LOL. As I read the comments, I keep thinking that maybe this events is geared toward smaller towns. Harder events can be demoralizing in the beginning. I bet making an event that pleases every level of player is difficult.
