Lands have either a Normal or Extreme climate.
The difference between Normal and Extreme climate Lands is really important when you are Hunting. It doesn’t impact Harvesting.
Each game day, Extreme Lands are randomly assigned a single type of shard. Every Hunt on that Land will return ONLY that type of shard for the entire day (quantity will differ). When the day ends (default time is Midnight UTC), each Extreme Land will be randomly assigned a new type of shard that it will produce for the next 24 hours.
Note: Landowners are able to change the drop reset time on their lands. They have four choices, midnight UTC, 6am UTC, midday UTC, and 6pm UTC.
Hunting on a Normal Land will result in a random collection of shards.
Strategy: If you are seeking a specific shard (for example, a Bee Egg shard), find an Extreme Land that is producing those shards and send your Bees to Hunt there as often as you can. Remember the type of shard an Extreme Land produces changes every 24 hours.
Note: For 10 minutes before and 10 minutes after each Extreme Climate Land resets each day, the available shard (shown to Landowners and to players with an active Sonar Buzz for that Land), will see a ? instead of the shard type. This is to allow for the game to update and to ensure that the accurate shard type is displayed.
Did you know that you can OWN Land in the Honeyland game? Landowners receive free shards each week! They also receive commissions and entry fees when Bees visit their Lands to Harvest and Hunt. - Learn more about Land Ownership.
Look out! - Some Extreme Lands will be FULL of Bees trying to get a specific shard. Lots of competition from other players means your Bee can take a long time to return to your Hive. Look around and see if you can find an Extreme Land that is less busy but still offering the shard you are looking for.
