Collecting Bears

## **Collecting ALL of the Bears\***

(\*This section is still being updated to reflect the changes with the recent coin update.)

### **Finding and Levelling Bears**

* When you find a bear for the first time, it will start at level 1. Each time you find a bear you already have, its level will increase by 1 until it gets to 100 (currently the max level). We are working on getting complete tables so people on this wiki can have an idea what their bears will look like when they are all grown up. **Please help us if you have information about bear levels that aren't in the tables!**
* What happens after level 100? Their naptimes will shorten! If you maxed a legendary bear it could wake up in 5 hours instead of 12! Naptimes cannot be reduced below 40% of the original naptime value.
	+ Legendary bears start at 12 hours and can be reduced to 4 hours and 48 minutes.
	+ Rare bears start at 3 hours and can be reduced to 1 hour and 12 minutes.
	+ Common bears (usually) start at 20 minutes and can be reduced to 8 minutes.
	+ This post on reddit discusses the user experience of reducing naptimes. This FAQ post explains the naptime arrangement, but the example uses an old version, where the common Skinny Bear had an hour naptime.

### **Rares & Commons**

* You can find most of these playing the daily timed and big boards. The few you can't find, you can play treasure or challenge boards (just look around).

### **Legendary**

* These guys are tough to find. You get Golfing Bear for completing Vacation Boss in Chapter 1 and the final event in Chapter 9 (I'm not there yet please confirm). After that, you find them in treasure events.
* Each treasure event costs 400 coins to enter. If you have 385 extra coins you can get a second bear of the same reward level that you earned the first time. (You can repeat this step as many times as you have coins to do so.) It's not guaranteed since there's always at least one rare bear among the list of possible bears that you can earn in treasure events.

### **But I want ALL of the Bears**

* There are currently 85 bears you can earn. If you want to get all of them to level 100, you would need to level these guys 8500 times which will keep the game interesting for most of us for a while (at least till another few updates come along). However...

#### **Math!**

* Remember there are 85 bears with 100 levels, and assuming you play 33 games per day (this used to be the number of times you needed to play to get maximum number of coins before the coin update), this would take you 257.6 days (less than a year... and of course you could play a whole lot more and speed that up even). Unfortunately things aren't so easy... also there's no guarantee each time you play a board you will get a unique bear (e.g. leveling them past 100).
* The problem really is those **legendary bears**. Without purchasing coins you can earn up to **190** coins per day (see Earning coins).
* If you max out your coins each day and play treasure events (again assuming you find a unique legendary each time) here's how long it might take you:
	+ There are currently 25 **legendary** bears in the game. You would need to level these guys 2500 times to max them all out.
	+ I listed three possible scenarios 1) getting a **legendary** at a treasure event 100% of the time, 2) getting a **legendary** at a treasure event 50% of the time and finally 3) getting a **legendary** bear at a treasure event 33% of the time.
	+ You have two options when playing the treasury events 1) spend your coins every time (400 coins a shot) 2) spend your coins when you get 785 coins (you get 2 chances to try for a **legendary** if you do that since the 01.09.01 update ). The time it will take you in years is in the table below:

How long it might take to get them all...
400 coins
(1 chance) | If you spend:
785 coins
 **50% Chance of finding a Legendary** | 28.8 years
 **33% Chance of finding a Legendary** | 43.2 years

Since the coin update, players lost about 40 chances to play per year if you maxed out your coins every day. Don't get too upset since this assumes you played 33 boards **every day** for a ***year***! It's much easier to collect your coins every 12 hours.

* If you had perfect luck, it will take you a little over 14 years to try to max all your bears. At worst it will take you just over 43 years...
* You could spend money to buy coins. Here's what that would cost you using $'s (spending $49.99 for 7600 coins - currently best value) instead of years in a similar table below:

If you bought all your legendaries...
400 coins | If you spend:
 **50% Chance of finding a Legendary** | $13157.89
 **33% Chance of finding a Legendary** | $19736.84

Anyhow I put this together just out of curiosity. Hopefully some of you visiting will find this information useful.

My opinion is that you enjoy the game (it's not a competition is it?) as it is. Those bears are really cute. All of this will likely change in a future update anyhow. I bought the infinite honey as I think that's totally worth it. The coins as they are right now not so much.

Happy hunting!
