This should help you see what items give you the most FP for your ingredients. So for those of you just seeking FP, some items you may want more than others. For those that want the items more for looks and/or animation, see below.
Additional Animation/Character Info
Mr. Strawpants Scarecrow (Decoration): No Animation. Sits on a 2×2 block. Reminds me kinda of Scarecrow from Batman. About height of characters.
Buddy the Gargoyle (Decoration): No Animation. Sits on a 2×2 block. Cool looking statue. Not too tall.
Electricity Ball (Decoration): Cool animation of electricity while just sitting in town. Lightning inside thickens and rotates around globe when tapped. Reminds me of the huge ones in science museums that you can touch. Sits on a 4×4 block. Not too tall.
Chomps the Zombie (Decoration): Now animated, the two just kinda move in place when just sitting in town. When tapped, the red shirted one wanders off, pulls out his eyeball while the other removes his arm, and a game a ball is played with the body parts. Quite funny. Sits on a 2×2 block.
Octomom (Decoration): She moves in place while sitting there. When tapped, a fly starts to buzz around, she follows it, catches it with web she shoots out, and eats it. Love it. Sits on a 2×2 block. I LOVE SPIDERS!!! EEEEE!!!
Effigy of Death (Decoration): Not animated. Slightly smaller than a character. Sits on a 1×1 block. I like the look, wish he was a lil bigger. Like as tall as the Gargoyle maybe.
Peter-Lantern (Decoration): Not Animated. Sits on a 2×2 block. Looks like he just tossed his guts. Yummy.
Monster From Space-Ace-Ace-Ace (Decoration): Not animated. Sits on a 2×2 block. Cool looking alien that for whatever reason reminds me of the aliens from the movie Explorers. Lol.
UPDATE 10/16/14: TinyCo now added animation to this cool lil guy. He juggles round fire torches. Then when tapped he blows the flames outward. You can also see all his lil eyes blinking.
Slutty Cat Meg (Character Costume): This is a really fun new Costume for poor forgotten Meg. SHUT UP MEG! It comes with many tasks that includes some hilarious outdoor animation of her and Chris making out. Her tasks will earn you Spirit Vials and FP for the event. More on this in a separate post. As you can only get one, the item will lock out once you Brew it. FYI you CAN Brew Slutty Cat Meg even if you do not have Meg unlocked. Then you can add the costume later after you do get her.
Mr Weed (Character): This is a brand new Character for the game. He comes with his own grave. Once placed, his questline will start. He comes with some funny tasks, like playing with Mr. Zucchini Head. His tasks will earn you FP and Spirit Vials for the event. More on this in a separate post. As you can only get one, the item will lock out once you Brew it.
There you have the current items available to Brew in the Witch’s Cauldron. More to come as the game progresses. Remember that these items can be located in your Inventory once you brew them. You will need to place them in your town to see/use them.
What do YOU think of all these cool new items? Brew more than one of anything yet? What items have YOU got? Favorites so far? Let us know.

Does it say “not enough”?

So three weeks in, and we now have three non-premium characters who can zap Terror Dogs (Joe, Meg, Peter), but Quagmire is still alone in his battle vs. Banshees (unless you want to drop the clams for Predator, which I do not). Latcher Talons and Candy Corns are from processes, not a specific character action. So why is the need for these items not balanced for these proportions? I’m all caught up with the cauldron items needed for quests (not including Mr. Weed), but haven’t done many of the not required items, and the # of brew items I have:
22 Terror Dog Bones
13 Banshee Tears
56 Latcher Talons
25 Candy Corns
Nothing left requires Latcher Talons. Not a damn thing. And yet Mr. Weed needs 40 Bones and 40 Tears; and I don’t see a scenario where anyone other than Quagmire can hit Banshees (even if Cleveland can … I don’t have Cleveland and am not paying even more clams for him).
It wasn’t until the very, very end of Comic Con where they allowed you convert a few of one kind of rocket for another; hopefully there’s a point where these Latcher Talons (and to a lesser point, Candy Corns) can be converted into Banshee Tears.

I’m still having an issue with the Meg costume. I unlocked it early when it was available, then it went away. I had her run a few tasks, and when the newest update came out, the brew screen shows her locked, with the check mark that I’ve already brewed it. Her costume shows unlocked in the costumes screen for Faceplace, but I’m stuck on the quest to unlock the costume, and her costume doesn’t show as available to use when I go to send her on tasks. I have screen shots. Any ideas?

So if you tap on Meg and scroll to the left or right, it won’t show her Slutty Cat Costume anymore? And she didn’t pop into your inventory storage?

I hate going off topic, sorry guys, I should have asked this sooner but has anyone reached a million coins yet? I’m on 991k and gonna hit it some time today, and worried there’s gonna be some kind of glitch as in the little window showing how much we’ve got there’s no space for seven figures. Anyone know?

You’ll start to go to 2 million… won’t reset. And yes, I answered this on both threads for you 😉

I’m currently sitting on 1.6million, no issues, slight overhang of the text on the window that’s all. Just haven’t had an opportunity to spend them due to back to back events. Would love to see a currency exchange option implemented maybe at the hillbilly ATM, coin into event currency or even clams.

Thanks for the new posts. Looking forward to more. Just wondering if Diane’s questline will still be available after the event? I have here endlessly doing her 4hr task, to earn traps. Also, is the Hooters building a good buy for 3,000 vials? I know I’ll need some for GB Quag and Meg’s costume. Thanks again!

I have everything right now and just waiting on the next update. I’m glad they animated chomps, very cool. I also wish the effigy of death was larger, it’s quite small. After my last post, Diane Simmons, finally, started dropping traps. Not a lot, but more often than not. Maybe TinyCo read my mind or saw my message. 🙂

Just to let you gals know, I figured out the last two items(I think). The first one is candy from trick or treaters, and the second is marshmallows from the stay puft marshmallow man.

You “think”? We will see when they go live. Anything can change until then 😉

The third one is definitely candy corn in the jar. Can’t make out the last jar yet but at least the color of it supports the marshmallow theory.

I’ve brewed all of them so far, the Pet Cemetry, and Banshees Lament have proved invaluable, the two I like best at the moment (apart from Mr Weed) are Buddy the Gargoyle as I love the look of it, and now that it’s animated Chomps the Zombie, it’s a really cool animation. Now I’m just keeping Peter and Quagmire earning Terror Bones and Banshee Tears so that I have a good stock build up for when the next batch of prizes arrives Thursday night.

I got a new quest line. Bruce triggers it and it is to buy various Halloween plants, just wondering if it has an end… I bought about 5 different bushes and the next quest is to buy trees, I don’t really care for the trees, but if it has a decent payout at the end, I might think about finishing the quest. Anyone know how long the quest is? 🙂

We will put up dialog later, but the new items are in the main updated post. 😉

Ug… Mr. Weed is going to take forever with all of the Spirit Vials needed for him and I know I’m going to want at least one of every Which’s Cauldron prizes, especially characters and costumes. -_-
