I would have to wait over ten hours to feed the squirrel all of my boxes. The rewards aren't worth that, but at the same time they aren't so horrible I want to drop the boxes.

Can we like, petition to get them to let us just feed him without waiting after the event is over or something? (full recovery is nice and I have been feeding the gems to my spirit weapon)

    Worst Fooled-you-pon event EVER.

    Why not bring back the treasure chest event. At least that way I can sell Premium chests for gold.

    Lmao at people who say that Bento Box gives junk. That box can offer artifacts and statues which can give around 9-13k exploration exp, it also can give a Full Recovery Potion, which is a really useful thing. All you need to do is hoard acorns, summon and give bento box to squirrel, desummon it and just afk or do something meanwhile for 10 minutes. It's not that hard lol.

    It would have been nice if you could just place the bento boxes in the Squirrel Doll inventory, and then after 10 minutes, it would consume a bento box and give you the empty bento, without having to repeatedly summon, give, un-summon and wait. Then again, this is what I thought would happen when the event started.

    I wouldn't mind holding onto the bento boxes if they stacked higher to 5 ... let's say... 20

    The items from the squirrel aren;t bad for most people, especially newbies... but when you have an end game character it really is junk. Ego food? Ego is capped. Exploration statues? No reason to level exploration as I have 19,500 excess ap and all skills trained. If I needed more of the items the squirrel has to give I would be more inclined to hold onto the boxes. I do agree that 10 minutes can be a little long, but at least the squirrel doesn't have to be summoned the entire time

    Waiting is nothing. However, it would be much better if we just summon a doll and then USE bento box to feed.
    That moment when you tried to feed then squirrel moves away....

    10 minutes is long when it adds up. It is a complaint similar to having to click a button at 30 minute intervals. Which honestly, seems annoying if I have to return at 10 minute intervals due to how brief and constant they are. I may as well just be playing the actual game. :#

    But seriously, this makes AFKing a bit more of a hassle.

    Yeah I understand ten minutes isn't long but I have OVER SIXTY boxes. That's 10 x 60 which is 600 minutes, which is a long time, whether you are three years old or thirty years old. It's just a hassle to try and remember to feed it every 10 mins. This is kinda a pain in the butt event.

    honestly I never really minded since the rewards aren't really that useful anyways, I just dropped all my bento boxes since it was only filled with gems and statues

    You can eat the bento boxes yourself and use them as diet food. (For people who just toss them away)

    You know what? You dont need even stay logged 10 mins to receive the Empty Bento Box. Just put the bag in an alt and give boxes to the doll each time u can, come back whenever and redo.

    It's really only a problem when you're just starting to use them. (like when you only just then earned your Detective Squirrel)
    If you'd been completing the bingo board at a rate of once per week, then you're likely to have built up quite the stockpile of 2x2 5-stacking Bento Boxes.

    Wanting to clear up all that inventory space all at once, coupled with the 10 minute per Bento wait time, can be annoying.

    At least that first while is the worst of it.
    Eventually you'll use 'em all up.

    I cannot believe that the Empty Bento Boxes stack up to 100 though.
    I wish the non-empty ones stacked that high, lol!

    I don't mind the wait so much. But yes, I wish they stacked higher than 5.

    I will admit I have been using the bento boxes for other things simply because my inventory can't take them anymore.

    The prizes are adequate. The squirrel will give you an acorn periodically if he is left summoned, so it's not like I can't get more bento boxes after the event if I need 'em.

    Actually, the squirrel doesn't need to be summoned.
    And the "periodically" you mentioned must be the "1 acorn every 5 levels" noted in the announcement.

    Still to be confirmed if this will continue after the event, though.

    I thought it was if you left him summoned every 30 minutes or something. I could be wrong. I'm just noticing that some of the acorns I've received didn't seem to be attached to leveling or anything like that, only having the squirrel out.

    10 minutes is a long wait when you are getting old and dying.
