The Savanna Collection Event

The Savanna Collection is 7 day event in which you can earn items from Districts 1-7 and vault the collection once per day. The items will drop from specific districts and they will only drop once per day. If you can get all 7 each day than you can vault the collection up to 7 times earning a Hammered Ostrich +10 skill points daily. The only issue with this event will be for players who haven’t gotten to District 7 in South Africa. For those who have unlocked the first 7 districts it will be annoying to do jobs with substandard ratios but the drop rates aren't bad. Perhaps Zynga is trying to rush it in hopes that players spend reward points to get there. More details are shown below.

If you need more guidance, click the help mark located on the home page banner. Each district will drop 1 collection item per day and it doesn’t matter which job you do.

Each collection piece is shown on the South Africa map in the district in which it drops.

For those who ignore the Home page banners, the Collection pages and South Africa, you will get a periodic pop-up to remind you that the event is ongoing.
As you earn items from jobs, they will appear on the home page banner and on the collection itself. The drop rate doesn’t appear to be that bad and seems to be affected by your total energy pool. Accounts with more energy will need to do more jobs than accounts with less energy.

Once you have all 7 items of the Savanna Collection, you can vault it. The collection is located on the Special Collections page and not the South Africa Collections page.

Once the collection is vaulted progress will reset and you can get more items the next day. Overall this isn’t a bad event as you will end up with 7 loot items and more importantly +70 skill points for spending your energy where you may not normally spend it.

  1. Even though this costs a lot of energy, drop rates aren't bad as you point out. After all the recent issues, and the first mission I've not been able to complete, this is one of the better events and reasonable rewards to look forward to!

  2. It's bugged. I did jobs in all of the seven districts, and it SAID all the collection items dropped for me. When I went to vault it, 2 of the items were still missing from my collection page. I won't waste anymore time on this until it's fixed. ( I never know if my comments go thru or not because stupid google makes me log in EVERY time I come here even though I tell it to leave me logged in, lol)

    1. You probably did the same thing I did when working on this post. The district specific collection items drop as well and say 'collection' on them. I just saw that and moved on thinking I got the item but it wasn't the event collection item.

  3. Hopefully everyone has the same luck, but I found it extremely easy to get each part by simply doing the first consumable job in each district - less than ten clicks on each job and the collection was complete.
    Good Luck!

  4. I got 1 collection piece per levelup to vault it. I think it's good to limit the event to 1 collection piece per district per day to cap the advantage to those with huge energy pools. 10 SP per day is a really nice reward for this event.

    1. You would like to "cap the advantage" of energy accounts, while reaping the benefits of your stronger attack account. hm, that seems fair. Or, how about we don't cap the advantage, as each type of account gets its own advantages and we should be happy with what we have ourselves ?

  6. I just completed it. Pretty easy, only about 4-6 jobs in each district to get the loot to drop, took me about an hour. I did try using the lockpick crew bonus to see if I got 2. No dice. One per day. Overall not a bad little gimmick.

    1. No, only the district matters. You can do any job you want.

  10. this collection is easy to get....as of this moment....maybe they will make it hard for the collection to drop again on jobs as days goes by...

  11. I don't really love this event.The drop rate is not that great and if the job takes all my energy in a couple clicks then I have to level come back and on and on. Some people have a good drop rate but not all, again I hate inconsistency. So it kinda screws players there. If you haven't mastered most districts yeah it's easier. But what bugs me the most is that this is an inherently unfair event because I know so many people who have not gotten to many of these districts so they need to hurry and get to them or forget it. I won't move on past bronze until I collect consumables so if I can't move on and do this oh well ( on my minis, my main can). But I don't think its fair. Make the events so people of all levels can do it. I know Zynga doesn't care when they do events that exclude newer people or lower levels but they should. Not to mention some are working on missions.

  13. Thanks for explaining the event to me, Jen. You always do a better job than the rules do and the spelling is usually better :) I haven't been doing the Special District jobs because of lack of consumables. Now I can set the Lockpick and double up on those until the collectible drops. But to get them all at Ruby level, I had to use an energy pack and 400 victory coins in the Marketplace Fight Club and level up more than once by fighting.

  20. I got 1 of each from doing the first job in each district. It did take a bunch of clicks, but it does work eventually.

  21. You have completed the Savanna Collection in South Africa. You have vaulted successfully to get Hammered Ostrich and 10 Skill Points.
