Ok is it just me or did Bullseye's hat change with the update? I don't remember the big eyes.
The Aladdin event won't likely use magic, there is usually a special event currency.
Yes! This will be my second event, but I did this during a good chunk of the last event, and it definitely helped ensure those chests gave me useful items for the event more often. It also meant that character tasks weren't competing for which item to drop, though I didn't run into this as often. I did still level up characters - I desperately wanted the gems to get the premium characters from the event - but I was very careful about who I leveled up and when. I had a running list of what characters had tokens in which chests, and on which character tasks. So if I needed bronze chests for event tokens, but there were no event tokens in silver yet, then characters with tokens in silver chests but not bronze could be leveled up without impacting my chest drops for the event.So is it best to try and have as many of my characters ready to level up as possible? That way whatever tasks/objectives I do during the Aladdin event will have more a chance to drop Aladdin items?
(Ex. If i have all of the Toy Story Characters ready to level up, after they complete a quest, they would only be able to drop an Aladdin item rather than the chance of an Aladdin item or a Toy Story item being dropped, etc.?)

Seriously, tomorrow?! Ugh... So much for my hopes of getting more main storyline finished... I now have several characters that aren't ready to level up because I'd been leveling up characters all over the place since LK event ended. Hopefully most of the tokens I need for current characters won't compete with those needed at the beginning of the event. Fortunately, I did manage to scrape up 179 gems since LK ended, and I still have my 2 freebies from the videos tonight, so I will be able to get Carpet right away! Time to go make a spreadsheet again to figure out how I'm going to scrounge up enough gems before Sept 10th to get Iago.... *sigh*
I'm going to be at the real magic kingdom for 1 week of the event, LOL.

Ahhhh...I see. This definitely helps! I will try to keep an eye on my characters then and hopefully get the few I have left ready to level up before tomorrow! Thanks for the Info!
Agreed! I found it easier to get those longer level ups done the further I got into the event, because it would sometimes take me 2-4 days to gather the needed tokens for the next event character anyway. So plenty of time to level folks up. The wiki is great, but don't believe it 100%, I ran into some errors where it didn't mention tokens being in chests, and I found out the hard way after leveling up a character. I wish I kept those notes from the LK event, but I tossed them thinking I'd have those characters maxed out by the next event.... Oh well.@LeiaSOS13 is exactly right, it definitely helps with drop rates, so having non max leveled characters ready to level, is always a good idea. It's always good to wait until an event starts to find out which which character require what or collect what. While having collectible items show for characters is great, one problem with having a character ready to level is the game does not show. So checking out the Disney magic kingdom wiki is a good idea. Also, like she said, don't hesitate to level up non-event characters, but be careful whom you level and when. If you are almost ready to welcome, or level up an Aladdin character, you don't want to be leveling another character for 12, 16 or 24 hours.
LOL me too! We should get gems for that!

On the plus side, I did a review of my current status and discovered I only have 4 characters not yet ready to level up, so not as bad as I feared. And I should get 50 gems from the 2per day freebie videos, and 72 gems from the daily rewards during the event (I hit the magical 90 days during the event that gives 40 gems). So I only have about 130 gems to figure out how to collect before Sept 10th to get Iago, which I think should be tough, but hopefully doable. Since I'm probably guaranteed 50 from event character leveling up and finishing that first collection of characters, which gives 20.
I would hold off until the event starts. Usually they have a bundle available for each of the premium characters. I personally don't spend real $, but if I was going to, that's probably where I would spend it.Also here's a thought that I would like some opinions on! I have a $10 iTunes gift card on my account that is just sitting there (I use Spotify for music haha) so I figured I would use it to buy a bundle for the game!
Is there any preference on which bundle I should buy? I mean of course the characters are cool to choose from, but I figure I should just get the bundle that has the most gems for this upcoming event (so I can possibly get Carpet or Iago)
Any thoughts? Thanks!!
