Task 4, Sub Task "Alchemist Friends"

[tontsa00]

Increase Friendship with Alchemists by 10. So how i can get this task done ? Do i need to get single alchemist character's friendship to 10 or all alchemists friendship to 10 ?

You need to raise the Friendship 10 times, it can be 10 times with one, it can be 1 time with 10, or any combination. Friendship just needs to be raised 10 times total.

I think this task is bugged, increased all my alchemists friendship to 10, but progress in the task was always 0 %. Even got achievement, new synthesis recipes and new visit scenes, but task % is always 0 %.

I think it may be requiring you to view 10 heart events instead of just gaining 10 hearts

I doubt you increased friendship to 10. You must be looking at level number instead. I am at day 55 and only raised one person to 10 friendship yet. And you say that you increased it for all alchemists before day 40, sounds unbelievable.

No, it requires increasing relationship level. Heart events can increase it, but they are not required for this mission. I got few relationship levels from those events, while others just increased by themselves either from villager quests or MVP from tasks.

Edit: Although there is a chance that you are right. I was not too focused on that mission, it just completed by itself, so maybe I just looked through enough heart events.

Heart event's didn't do nothing for me, % in the sub task was always 0 %, so i've got no increase from hear events for from requests aswell.

Are you sure you were doing heart events with alchemists instead of common villagers (not everyone who joins you is an alchemist)? Also they don't always increase relationship level, they just provide some relationship progress, so you need to accumulate this progress from different sources until you see heart level up. That's what will count for the task progress.

And you need to do that after mission started. All increases that you had before the mission won't count.

Already moved to new main task, so that sub task was not finished, i could try again in my next playthrough.

It only gives some 100+ new population/citizens, so now loss there, since new sub task give alot more :)

For that task, as mentioned by the others: you need to level friendship 10 times. Which means the heart level going up 10 times.

Completing requests and heart events give heart level exp. Below level 5~ requests should always give a level. (above that it doesnt give enough exp for a full level)

If you actually leveled them all to 10 by cheating somehow that would explain. Since 10 is (I assume) the max, you wouldnt be able to raise their friendship anymore.

[tontsa00]

Yeah, used cheat engine :), no worries, the actual sub-task wasn't big deal for me, rewards weren't anything special at that point of the game.

[Tiasmoon]

I dont see the point in using cheats for a game like this, but your choice. xD

[Lu5ck]

The game is...very easy.

[Tiasmoon]

I imagine its even easier if you cheat your way through.

I think it's bugged or poorly translated. I was stuck at 80%, on a rest day, with the second large building set to complete after the next work day. Not matter what combination of heart events and requests I did, and yes, the friendship level went up, I was stuck at 80%.

But I did finally complete it. While reloading and testing, an emergency battle request came out. The two alchemists I brought with me to the battle got friendship level increases, and THAT completed the sub quest.

Also this was on the Switch version, if that matters.

[archmag]

Maybe you did events with common people, not alchemists. Not everyone who joins you is an alchemist.

You also have to note that friendship events etc dont always give a full heart level. This is especially true after 4-5 friendship level when it starts requires noticably more exp.

About the emergency battle/exp requests: I take it they spawn randomly then?

Also: sub tasks dont fail if you complete the Main Task first. You can still complete them as long as you got turns left on that particular sub task, even if you are 2 Main tasks later.
