Bug Catching with Chimalma

Item not found: woolly caterpillar

Item not found: common earth worm

Quote by Chimalma:

The sun is shining, the sea is lapping at the beach, and I don’t think I ever want to leave my town! Except, well, there’s one thing I miss. Growing up, I was super into bugs! Their colors, their shapes, they way they moved - they’re awesome! They definitely inspired my style and work ethic. But, well, you just don’t see a lot of them in Delphi. Not the really nice ones!

Help Chimalma at Delphi Beach by catching the bugs she asks for.

How do you catch bugs? Easy! Once you offer to help her, you’ll find the bug you’re look for floating around the site. Click the bug and bring it back to her! Chimalma is nice enough to let you keep the bugs you show her. Unlike bird watching, there are no area specific bugs, so you can find the bugs anywhere around the site.

You can only help her once a day, so remember to visit her every day. There’s an achievement in it for you if you catch all 30. Bug Catching will be around until the end of August!

The first time you agree to help Chimalma out, she will give you one copy of Bugs As Inspiration for free. If you want another copy, you’ll have to buy it from the Millionaire Center

This is cool! I did find two of the one she asked for before I went to turn in the one I had already found. Is that supposed to happen?

~~Starfleet~~ 04/29/16 3:02 pm

Thank! You! I've been missing bird watching.

Mythology 04/29/16 1:56 pm

Hnnngh Need the Lucky Cricket Cage.

Amber STAFF 04/29/16 1:52 pm

@Genevra they are honorary bugs

Genevra 04/29/16 1:51 pm

whispers worms, slugs, snails and such aren't bugs....

But despite that, thanks for this event! Yay insects and gastropods!

Elwyn 04/29/16 1:49 pm

They're all so pretty! Gotta catch em all!

Xezvi 04/29/16 1:48 pm

I HAVE FOUND THE FIRE ANTS!

Courtesy 04/29/16 1:46 pm

Seriously though the artist who drew those is top notch. I want them all for reasons I don't know yet.

Courtesy 04/29/16 1:44 pm

She looks like a real deviant. I shudder to think what she's doing with all those bugs..

Annika 04/29/16 1:44 pm

Yay, I hope I can catch butterflies. :heart:

Halibel 04/29/16 1:43 pm

Fun!!! :D

Asunay 04/29/16 1:43 pm

This is pretty cool! xD
You found a Blue Dragonfly!

efil 04/29/16 1:41 pm

THANK YOU! This is wonderful <3

Eivor 04/29/16 1:41 pm

The only bug I'm interested in catching is the one that's making the site do weird text formatting.

Amber STAFF 04/29/16 1:40 pm

@KimC Good Luck <3

KimC 04/29/16 1:40 pm

@Amber Okay, I'll keep looking. All the bugs are so pretty!!!

Amber STAFF 04/29/16 1:39 pm

@KimC It varies! I found mine after maybe 20 pages? It's a little harder to find them with the Vesnali flowers floating around. Some people have been lucky to find it within 3-4 pages!

KimC 04/29/16 1:38 pm

Um, how long does it take for the bug to show up? I've been on multiple pages with no sign of one...

Artist_169 04/29/16 1:36 pm

@Amber ohhh. that bright neon beetle won't let me forget anymore

Poet 04/29/16 1:35 pm

@Amber I realized it popped up on a pinned page, so that's why it didn't work. And I will! I've been refreshing my inventory but no luck yet.

Mike 04/29/16 1:35 pm

"so you can find the bugs anywhere around the site."

You don't say...

Amber STAFF 04/29/16 1:35 pm

@pumpkins You get the book the minute you accept the quest. You don’t have to find the bug to get the book! It’s just the first time you accept the quest, you get the book. :)

SecretAgentJane 04/29/16 1:34 pm

I vote for the "set reminder" option too :D

Amber STAFF 04/29/16 1:34 pm

@Poet Just keep exploring, you’ll get a second chance at it! :) I just refreshed around the explore page so I wouldn’t have to scroll a bunch

pumpkins 04/29/16 1:33 pm

I got the book before I found the bug, I'm not sure if finding a flower might have trigged into giving me the book?
I didn't get a duplicate book after I found the bug though.

Poet 04/29/16 1:33 pm

@Amber I did, but my floating flower didn't work either, haha.

operationivy 04/29/16 1:33 pm

I love insects so this is amazing!! I just wish it would be around permanently.
