| Task | Priority | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Open the in-game Event panel | Required | Confirm the live timer, Diving Valve balance, and current reward rows on your server before spending. |
| Clear daily collaboration tasks first | High | Cross-checked coverage puts daily tasks ahead of other event work. Do not invent token counts or a named quest list. |
| Then run Ocean Cleanup in Whalefall Canyon | High | Whalefall Canyon is the reported event area. Ocean Cleanup comes after the daily panel, not before it. |
| Spend Diving Valves only on rows you can see | Required | Reward names, caps, and recipe lists are not cross-verified. Use the in-game event panel as the catalog. |
This checklist only ranks the cross-verified loop: Event panel, daily tasks, then Ocean Cleanup in Whalefall Canyon. Token numbers and named quests stay in the in-game event panel.
Cross-checked pages put the collaboration in Whalefall Canyon and name the Diving Valve as the core currency. That is enough to route a session. It is not enough to publish a farm table.
Do daily collaboration tasks first. Then run Ocean Cleanup in Whalefall Canyon. Leave permanent fishing or crop work until the event panel is clear.
Competing live pages confirm the window and an Active now badge. They do not publish a shared reward table. One independent guide lists recipes and a valve cap, but those numbers are not cross-verified here.
Rewards, drop caps, and recipe names stay in the in-game event panel.
