This a guide I'm partially making as a personal reference for myself but also to share what I've gathered in the few times I've played the October event thus far.

All of the info that can be found on the wiki should be factual, but any recommendations are just that. More than anything, do what you find the most fun. This guide aims to maximize BB for crunchies since that's what I aim to get the most of from this event.

By sticking only to the highest BB enemies, I got over 300BB on the first day of the month with only a couple of the energy tips I outline in the guide.

• TRICK OR TREAT. This becomes available starting on the 25th of the month (wish it was the whole month but that would be way OP). I've gotten as much as 10BB from a single interaction. Set a timer if you want to but either way trick or treat whenever you remember to it's so worth it. Plus, you can get ScB, StB, or free vulture eggs sometimes. Absolutely goated. This should be your top priority once it's available. Check the members online list to quickly go to other people's dens.

• EXPLORE AT NIGHT. The most lucrative enemies come out at night, plus you can also fight a few of them for shards of evil, which is important if you want to craft the later tier applicators. Night will always be during odd hours of LD time such as 9am or 1pm, even hours are day time.

• Stick with Nirah. This one is a personal choice for sure, but I find it the best route for if you don't want anything in the heaven or hell shops. Picking a side adds a bunch of extra enemies in explore, but all of them only give 2BB max. If you're only wanting Manticore Shop items, then just stay with Nirah.

• Energy Tips. All of the usual energy tips will be crucial. Free daily boost, bone marrow, gorilla enclave, any experience you've banked, those are all massive with how combat focused this event is. The fights will be a big drain. If you have access to a May personality changer, I'd recommend that or either the personalities Hyperactive or Candid for your king depending on what will work best with your play style. I claim girls constantly, so I have Candid on both of my kings because it gives you 3% energy for every lioness claimed. Hyperactive gives a 30% daily boost if under 70% and Stoic (May Changer) makes winning fights take 7% energy instead of 10%.

Not all encounters are included, just the ones with options that aren't just attacking. Heaven/Hell encounters will not be included either.
