Event Basics
Event Basics
Coigreach presents a variety of new mechanics and features to explore all throughout the month! They aren't all available right away- stick around all month long to get the most of what the event has to offer. A lot of this event is driven by a storyline that progresses over the course of the month, but some other parts of the event are tied to specific dates rather than moments in the story.
This event has an exclusive currency, 
Smoky Quartz, which are obtained through exploring, completing Badger Cave favors, and following the storyline. Smokey Quartz can be used to purchase items in the event shop.
Frequently-Asked Questions
Frequently-Asked Questions
Are the rewards for completing the storyline the same every year?
Nope! New base applicators will be added as storyline rewards each year to replace the last year's applicators.
Event Herbs
Event Herbs
Throughout the month of November, you may notice that your herbalist is bringing back some new and unusual herbs! These herbs, which all originate from Europe, do not have any use right now aside from crafting nesting materials. It was implied in the Coigreach announcement post that the herbs will serve some more function later, so we would recommend saving them!
These herbs cannot be exchanged for at the herbalist, but they can be used to exchange for other herbs. They are not used to craft any medicine, but they can be used to craft Nesting Materials in your Hoard.

Event-Exclusive Items
Event-Exclusive Items
The following items can only be obtained through Coigreach explore encounters. For details on how to get each item, you can search the item's name on the Coigreach Explore Encounters page. Wealden Amber and Sheep Skull do not currently have a use, but they are likely to in the future.
Large Smoky Quartz Chunks can be obtained rarely while exploring during the nighttime, when following a wisp through a cave chain. Selecting the Quartz Chunk in your hoard will prompt you to open the bundle, which has the chance to randomly drop 3, 4, or 5 Smoky Quartz, which will be added to your normal currency stash.

The storyline consists of two parts: the base storyline, and a storyline extension added in 2022. Completion of the base storyline will reward the player with one of two base applicators, Clover or Moss, depending on which ending they choose. Completion of the storyline extension, which begins on 20th November, will reward one of two new base applicators introduced that year.
In order to complete the storyline, players are required to rollover at least 3 times. There is a 1-rollover waiting period after the first part of chapter one and another 1-rollover waiting period at the end of chapter one. In the middle of part 2 of the storylinw, another 1-rollove waiting period is required. Between these, chapters open up on specific dates. Chapter Three begins on November 5th, Chapter Four begins on November 10th, and Chapter Five begins on November 15th. You can start the storyline any time after these dates, as long as you allow yourself about a week before the end of November to complete the rollover waiting periods and find storyline explore encounters. The storyline expansion begins on 20th November.

This month's shop is run by two unusual visitors, a large badger and their small hedgehog friend! Tiers of the Badger Cave open up on specific dates. Once a new tier of the shop opens, new items will be available to purchase. Previous tiers of the shop will all remain open as more tiers unlock.

Two strange creatures sit in front of a small den entrance with unfamiliar symbols etched onto the archway. The small, prickly hedgehog sniffs up at you curiously, while the larger badger watches you with a keen, kind expression.
