Overview

This event's farming tickets are Café Tickets, as usual the max capacity is 6 and on the other hand 3 tickets added per day.

Drinks Menu and Feedback Wall

Unlike other events where shop currencies are directly earned by playing supply stages, the supply stages in Zucchero Café instead yield Coffee Beans and Cloudberries. These ingredients are then used to mix the drinks offered on the menu. Each drink takes a certain amount of time to be sold, and generates a certain amount of sales points, customers points, opinion stickers and shop currency. Selling drinks of a specific type is among the missions that must be accomplished to earn shop currency and increase the cafés rank from C to C+, to B, to B+, and up to rank S. As the rank of the café increases, new drinks are unlocked and new items are available in the event shop. The Common Key Fragrant Protection is obtained from rank A+ missions.

Opinion stickers are used on the Feedback Wall. The Feedback Wall is a 9×6 grid where sticky notes of matching color can be combined into notes of higher value, up to level 4. At least 3 notes must be contiguous to be combined, with combinations of more than 3 generating extra notes. When level 4 notes are combined, they add 6000 to the resources counter to be distributed at the end of the event, up to 90,000. Blue stickers grant Combat Reports, pink stickers Analysis Blueprints and orange stickers Sardis Gold.

Story

Trivia

• Unlike Amidst Wings of Gray, the event wasn't renamed when running on international servers. However, like Amidst Wings of Gray, the story was rewritten and the story mode was renamed from “Zucchero Café” (方糖特调沙龙) to “Bitter Thorns and Daisies”. The original story only contained pre-battle dialogues and was acknowledged by Sunborn as non-final. “Bitter Thorns and Daisies” (苦涩荆棘与矢车菊) was added to the story archives in CN instead of “Zucchero Café” and didn't run as a separate event. The original story was never available in the international servers, but the five supply stages (Last-Minute Request, Emergency Repairs, Long-Lost Colleague, Silent Assistance and Bomb Disposal Expert) retain the names of the stages from the original CN event.
