Harvest Gathering Event Guide

How to Host Harvest Gathering

1
Talk to Jojo for Preparations
Approach Jojo at the Limited-Time Event Zone and prompt will appear to start preparing for the Harvest Gathering.
2
Talk to Jojo Again to Start
Preparations will begin, indicated by a timer on the screen. Friends can join in while you are preparing. Talk to Jojo again, and a popup will show the amount of people gathering. Press Start Now to officially begin. Letting the timer run out will cancel the Harvest Gathering, and you'll have to talk to Jojo again.
3
Chests Appear and Come in Waves
Chests will start appearing in waves, with each wave lasting 30 seconds. Once a wave is done, there is a 15-second pause before the next wave starts. Note that the number of chests you can open in your own Harvest Gathering is 5, and that rewards are not shared.
4
Chests Can Appear on the Stairs
Be vigilant in looking, as chests can sometimes appear outside of the zone itself. These chests hide by the stairs, were they can be obscured by the elevated ground sometimes.
5
Check Mail for Hosting Rewards
Once the Harvest Gathering is done, you will receive a reward for hosting in your Mail. Be sure to claim this.
6
Complete Harvest Dailies
Taking part in the Harvest Gathering also counts towards your Harvest Dailies.

How to Join Harvest Gathering

1
Join Friend's Homeland
Joining Friend To join a friend who is hosting the Harvest Gathering, go to the Friends tab and highlight the one whose Homeland you will visit. When the popup to transport appears, press Confirm.
2
Wait for Friend to Initiate Start
Once you arrive in their Homeland, go to the Limited-Time Event Zone. Wait for them to initiate the Harvest Gathering, as only the host can do so.
3
Chest Rewards Are Not Shared
You can help each other find the remaining chests, but take note that chest rewards are not shared. You can open up to 3 additional chests when joining Harvest Gatherings hosted by other players, and cannot open any more if you reached your daily limit.
4
Complete Harvest Dailies
Taking part in the Harvest Gathering, whether your host or not, also counts towards your Harvest Dailies.

Gathering Preparations Guide

Clear the Plot

Limited-Time Event Zone

Talk to Fannie when she arrives in your Homeland. You will then be directed towards the big plot of land near the Production Zone and Service Hub. This is the Limited-Time Event Zone, where the event will primarily take place.

Talk to Fannie again and she will instruct you to clear out all of the debris on space. Note that your Homeland Aniimo will not help you clear this out like they usually do, so you'll have to clear it all up by yourself. You can proceed with the next quest after this.
