I had no idea the garden variety set even existed! I once went a month getting nothing but wood and stone from both rummage piles so I would definitely love some updates to the RNG or pool of items

Omg yes! All of it. And/or I think some of the Zekistuff should be recipes too (like the Garden Variety stuff or the Valley Sunrise Vase maybe) 🙈 I got 2 of the Side Tables last week… I mean I said I need one or two more but… dude…

I really like your suggestions, it would make these so much better! I have two things I would add. -Bad luck protection: it would mean for example, that if you get 6 horrible draws, the seventh one would be something nice. Or something like that. Oh, you just suggested that for completing weeklies 😅 That's better, it rewards playing. -Better junk items: What if the junk was better. In the UK is a beach where they find lego, because a big freightship sank? there years ago. We can have something like that, make it non craftable, sell it to zeki for some nice coin, 50-250 gold? Also make the trash a collection, or multiple small collections. Then when we collect all the trash in the collection we get a recipe. If we can collect ALL of the trash items, we get a cool unique furniture thing. Kind of like makeshift furniture. And when we have all the things we can still make easy money.

I second all of this!! Also, you are telling me I’m buying a panting for 40g in the underground and you can’t give me a coin for that?! Come on!!!!

Congrats on becoming KZfaq partner! 🥰🎉

It is BEYOND frustrating. I would love to have the flotsam recipes, but keep getting sapwood, worms, and stones. Ugh. Thank you for stating what we all thought.

I have 6 cyl plushies now lol I feel like I've hit lucky on plushies in Zeki's machine. I'm sure the one in the main shop and the one in the underground give the same variety of items but since I've gotten like 3-4 plushies from the underground I find myself always going to it predominantly lol I hate getting fireworks, I always sell them since I never use them. Oh wow I never knew there was that much Valley Sunrise things cause I've mainly got ceiling lights and the little dining table multiple times.

I guess I was lucky. Last week I came across a pile not really knowing what it was and got the cylinder plushie. I didn’t know that pikes was something that happened every day. I thought just once in a while. I definitely agree that it makes no sense for the pile to be items that honestly you probably could have picked up on the way there. A rare item would help out those that are having trouble gathering those materials during gameplay.

It's like you reached into my brain and took all my frustrated thoughts and put it into your video...THANK...YOU! I agree with everything you said, They need to make it worth our while! Yes, please, remove the basic items. They are great for like the first week of play but afterwards, useless. And 10 k is highway robbery. Adding pictures, rugs, decor, any other more useful items than fireworks and basic seeds would be better. Oh and Congrats on making partner!!! Btw, just subscribed.

Finally someone is talking about it, the RNG is ridiculous, I would love if they would chance something and I think you’re ideas are great. Thank you for the video. 😊

I have had rough luck with the rummage piles and zeckis machine for awhile literally until yesterday. I was getting so bummed out after wasting gold on the machine and time hunting for the rummage piles only to get worms or stone. Finally got the Cyl plushie yesterday after well over a week of being dedicated to getting the bahari rummage pile. And somehow by the grace of God after only getting worms or seeds from zeckis machine I actually got the silver wing plushie. It was a major relief and I don't think the game is meant to be stressful at all. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. Hope the devs see it!

Take out the trash items is a great idea for both the piles and the lucky boxes. I think it would be a good idea to add Zeki coins to the boxes as chance rewards, and then give us a Zeki hut to purchase the plushes and furniture items. That would solve the frustration on the players' side and the need to add things to the game to encourage daily playtime for the devs.

I so agree with you. I always seem to get 3 fur or 5 stone. Zeki's usually just has junk or so many repeats of the Valley Sunrise tables. By the way I just love Zeki's store entrance bell.

I think with Zeke, if they made the furniture like the rummage piles where you get a recipe it'd be better. It is extremely frustrating that I have 42 of the same light lol. This would leave more chances for plushies and other small items. It also will help iif someone wants more then 1 of a furniture set but only ever gets 1. I've been hunting the bed from Zeke for 8 months lol.

Zeki coins feels like gambling ahaha. I'm addicted to growing apples and hitting stone to get gold just for ONE zeki coin.

If the fireworks lasted longer. I would use them like flares

I feel ya, I never get anything good.

I only need one more recipe from Kilima but I need SO many recipes from Bahari

I love all the ideas

I actually like the fireworks in the machine- but only because I’m dating Kenyatta. And I literally dump them all with her lol but I didn’t even know you could get any of the more rare items from the lucky machine like at all.

Congratulations on partner!! 🎉 My first rummage pile I got one tomato 😅 it was very underwhelming

Rare flowers that are only in the pile. That also doesn't seed.

I 1000% agree w/ the item changes! I'd LOVE some accessories (as someone who can't afford $25 for the fancy clothes) I wouldn't mind these items in either pile: 5x Palium ore 5x Gold ore Plushies (even smaller ones would be cool!) Accessories- Hats, Bags or color choices Display items STARRED Seeds!!! (Even if it is just 1) Fine Arrows Dispel Arrows Cooked food and/or Recipes 3x Brightshrooms AND CONGRATS on making KZfaq partner!!! 🥳🥳🥳

Couldn’t agree more!

I think including some clothing pieces would be cool. Just for something different.

I’ve gotten the green cylinder twice from Bahari it’s so cute! Never got anything good from Zeki and only 1 recipe from rummage in Kilima! Sucks! Wouldn’t mind rubbish if there’s a higher change of getting something good 😅

I've gotten one recipe from kilima, and none from Bahari. But, from Bahari I now have FOUR Cyl plushies, which... why?? I swear that's all I find in the pile since they added it in.

Zeki's coin machine has been pretty good to me. I have the Silverwing Plushie from a while back, and just yesterday got the Ancient Fish Plushie, totally unexpectedly. Usually between those great prizes it's seed packets or garlic, though I do get some nice Sunrise Valley furniture (?) fairly often too. Rummage piles...meh. I have three green canisters from the Bahari beaches pile. After three months I at last got the Cozy Towel Ladder thingy from Kilima rummage piles, so I've had (actually) a good week re. rummage piles, but 39 days out of 40 plus it's three furs or a carrot lol. A carrot. I haven't got over the single carrot at Bahari yet, and that was a month ago now. P.S. I scored a Starred Amethyst in Bahari mining yesterday too. It was a good day RNG-wise. And last week, got my second last Makeshift furniture item. Only one more to go.

I just thought I was unlucky ngl

I haven’t gotten a single plush from anything and I’ve been grinding and doing daily’s for 2 months

At least with the rummage piles there is a hack you can do to prevent yourself from getting stone, wood and those unwanted items. Fill your inventory with nothing but furniture and run to the pile. If you can't loot it (saying "inventory is full") then it would have given you a trash item. Then you just close the game and open it again to hopefully join a new server. Repeat until you can loot! Then you will get either a quest or a recipe. If you want Cyls though, this won't work.

Could someone explain where to find the kilma or bahari piles? I didn’t know they existed?

Kilima rummage piles are ridiculous. I've only seen one in the entire time they've been in the game.

There is a trick to get a cyl plushie everyday and I have tried it and it works.

Sooo...you only want to get good things from Zeki's machine? I'm afraid that's not how gacha machines or rng in games work. That machine has one main purpose. It's a "gold sink". It's not meant to be used once per day, the free coin is just suppose to make you log in and encourage you to spend some money. You're suppose spend some of that gold that a lot of us are sitting on and wondering how not to get gold capped every day or two from passive gold mine called gardening. hence 10k price tag. And while some of the items are laughable for established players, a new player could certainly get excited about. Same goes for rummage piles. While I agree that there's a lot of "trash" in there, I'm sure the number of cool recipes or items will increase in time. Though I would probably lower the cooldown on those or add some extra piles to loot per day. And back to Zeki, there's a lot of stuff in there that many people would like multiple. It would be dreadful having to get every item before getting duplicates.

I’ve only gotten one plush from the machine, and only two recipes total from the rummage pile 🥲
