I forgot something tho , when positive feedbacks were still working maximum malus you could get was 20 sec , I think they removed that limit. And there is no way I can win any challenge with 36 sec

In my case :
No malus reduction :5 keys per day, sometimes 6 on a very lucky day
With malus reduction: 7 keys per day , never managed to hit 8

7 keys in how many tries ?

I usually always do only 7 tries every day, and get 5 keys when there's no shitty maps, 4 if there are, and 6 in a very lucky day. When positive feedback malus was on, i usually did 5 or 6 on 7 tries.

And once, i had a lot of credits, and a bundle to buy, so i also bought a key, and with only 1s malus added, it was steam keys fiesta :D

My thoughts exactly! I just remembered today that a while back I played a challenge and lost and when I clicked on play again I got the "not enought gala-something to enter" and was kicked out only to find out the challenge closed while I was playing the one that I failed. Good thinking, I guess this could be it.

If you win mining at 16 malus, PLEASE for the love of god take a screenshot, I'm ready to declare that one a modern day miracle :D seriously though, mining doesn't seem possible to me, but I have real trouble with the "click X times" challenges. But for me, watering plants is 90% success rate at 16 malus, managed to win it 2 or 3 times at 18 malus. Hoeing is defeinitely possible at 16, very often 18 and if you get lucky with the map 20 as well. Archers are a hit and miss for me, they seem waaay faster at shooting than they used to be for some reason. So sometimes I win at 16, sometimes I fail as low as 12 malus
Please screenshot watering, i dont think i ever even won watering, i always skip it. :D
Can you water 2 plants the same time or what? I really hate watering.:D
And i did won mining at 12, but i never really tried on 16, i just thought it was possible and archers ofc. :)

I hated it for months, before understanding how it works : you have to do squares. Block of 4 plants, and you run inside this square watering every corner one at a time, then go to next 4. It gets a lot of practice, but once you know it, it becomes one of your most trusty challenge.

I see, i know i was doing something wrong, because i tried few times and i was always missing 1-2 plants, even without malus.

Can one target diagonal spaces?

Anyone else even able to do the challenge right now?

Does that mean you can water diagonally? Or does one need to go to the side of each?

Go to the upper left corner of the square of grapes (the plant has to be highlighted), water it, go down to highlight the plant down, water it, go right, highlight, water it, go up highlight water it. Do it 3 more times, and head to the next square. You have to time your clicks perfectly. After some practice you'll win it, then after some more practice, you'll do it faster and faster, sometimes not even touching the grapes yourself but with just your highlighting case. And after even more practice, you'll begin to pour wine out of your body, and then you'll be the wine. People will adore you as the god of wine, and be drunk in your name. Also, you'll win more steam keys.

I usually always do only 7 tries every day, and get 5 keys when there's no shitty maps, 4 if there are, and 6 in a very lucky day. When positive feedback malus was on, i usually did 5 or 6 on 7 tries.

At that time I wasn't entering giveaways at all , I was only grinding the gameplay challenge, so I would use entire 240 galasilvers to get that 7 keys , that was the price of 7 keys , not entering in any giveaways .

Unlike @Zolivv, I never do a square of 4 (I absolutely suck at this kind of coordination), I always do pairs where I water left plant 1 time, right plant one time, repeat cycle 4 times, move down and water left plant 1 time, right plant one time and so on.
So you can water diagonally? Well, I can't get the challenge to even work anyway.
No, what Zolivv is saying is you have a SQUARE of 4 plants. If you name the points of the square A,B,C,D you start at A, move to B, then C, then D and repeat 4x. then move onto the next square (see my illustration below). My method is illustrated next to it, as I said plenty of people like Zolivv's method but for me it's too difcult. (in the illustration, arrows denote movement direction, the green stars are plants). watering.png

If the challenge doesn't work, you're probably entering it too late (staff promised to look at this error, it appears the challenge is closed script-wise, but the IG page still tells you it's open, that's why you can't enter, nothing you could do about it, you simply missed the window where it was working correctly)

Is it even possible to get 7 wins on a 4s/win malus?

There's a fixed order in which challenges get rotated. Haven't run the challenge in a couple days, but IIRC it's:

Chopping->Sickling->Mining->Watering->Killing->Picking->Hoeing

Past the first 7 challenge series, i should already have gotten 5 keys(archer spawn points are too inconsistent to rely on that challenge), but the only challenge i can have somewhat of a chance at beating with a 20 second malus is hoeing.

During the second series, i buy 2 seconds on the hoeing challenge. This allows for ~3 additional mistakes and saves time that would otherwise be spent running a third series(there are faster ways to farm feudalife coins and i don't see a feasible way to complete the hoeing challenge with a 24 second malus).



On a side note:

This is my path for watering. I don't think it's optimal(diagonal movement is a bit slower) but always repeating the same pattern and not having to reposition partway through results in more consistency and less room for error. This route allows completion with a 16 second malus, but only on a no-mistake, near-frame-perfect run(which is easier said than done because by the time you're done with one of the plants in a group the other is still 1-2 frames shy of being waterable again.

There's also a minor optimization to the picking challenge: by picking 2 columns at once, you can reduce the amount of time spent moving by some extent, but this still doesn't result in enough time saved to improve its completionability. This is easier on columns than rows because character facing prioritizes the left and right sides.

So do I understand it correctly? When the challenge starts, you quickly go to the left part of the map (like to the eight plant on the left), so that once you start watering you go 8 pairs all the way from left to right)? Hadn't thought of that, very interesting bit. Although I heavily prefer left-right movement, so would not work for me, but still interesting. My method fortunately allows for 1 or 2 mistakes at 16 malus (probably due to the time I save by not moving diagonally), and for 0 mistakes at 18 malus.
(As a side note, I see my diagrams have sparked interest, good :D )

I nearly always use 70 galasilver only everyday, and the rest on giveaways, but i haven't won anything since october 10th... I won 15 games, but mostly freebies or very cheap games.
