Hi Everyone !

I read many post here, specialy on 3DS version about grinding Hats !
Just loosing hope of finding my last one : dog ears.....
I used more than 300k gold in trophy rush (imo more than 400k), Got more than 3k collectibles, got every other things in the game !
This is my last challenge, this damn hat of sh**t, and my last trophy will come from this !!!
And of course, It is the most horrible hat skin that nobody will use it xD

I've read that many got it with DK on trophy rush, but seems it doesn't want to pop for me....
When i don't play, I afk with smash tour (dunno the english name but it's the turn by turn mode), sometimes pushing a button for bomb/homerun, and i get some hats sometimes, but not the good one ! If I have to go more than 30minutes, i Use 2 amiibo in a 99min game, and get some hats too, but still not the good one !!!

The last thing I was thinking, was to find someone near where I live, and who got many times this one, and to give him my amibo till he got it, and then, I get amiibo's gift on my own wii U !!! And I can do it for the one he is missing !!!
if there is someone from France here, tell me :)

Anyway, if u have any idea of how getting my last one, it could be really great !
When I think about challenges, honnestly, using hammer is useless, because you'll have to use so many time to finish those remaining ! Finishing intensity 7.0 is maybe boring, but could be faster than damn hats....

Last point : sorry if my english is not good enough, so I hope everyone will be able to understand me :)

I only really play the 3ds version but it took me FOREVER to get all the hats on it! And now I need to get them all on the Wii U!!! :cry:

By the way your English is actually pretty good. I could understand everything you were saying!

I have started the 3DS version after doing the hardest things on wii U, and i know on which challenges I'll use Hammer, I don't wanna restart this pain... stickers of brawl was piece of cake....

Which hats are you missing ?

By the way, a dumb question, from where are most of the users of this forum ?
US ? EU ?

Honnestly, I think the best way to finish it on SSB4U, is the amiibo gift trade between people who are not dropping the same hats on their own wii U !

On the Wii U version I'm missing about 5 hats :ohwell:

But on these forums I'd have to say most people are from the U.S. But there are people from all around the world here!

I got the Dog Ears as a prize in Classic mode on 7.0 in the 3DS version, once. I ended up losing at one point, and the prize I lost for continuing was the Dog Ears... That was weeks ago. Haven't seen them since.

On the 3ds version, dog ears was my last hat, and I found it after more than a week of desperate grinding/farming (classic lv9 with Kirby).
On the WiiU version I found them a couple of times, in trophy rush and in crazy orders. I'm still missing the Princess' wig/crown and the frog hat on WiiU.
to find those hats, you just need to play over and over. It's frustrating, but that's it.

Out of context, this is one of the strangest sentences I've ever read.

Care, we can do the same with cat ears :laugh:

@IkoMattOrt :
Princess' wig/crown and the frog hat, I got it every day, playing or afking with amiibo/smash Tour !
This is just crazy, I really wanna know how this have been coded !! Damn Algorithmes !!!

Anyway, actually, I'm trying to find people who wanna switchs amiibos, with hats on em :)
I'm pretty sure it's the best way for not being mad, and finishing this stupid farm....
I just hope that the gift can be given to an other wii U owner !
Seems nobody tried it !!!???

If someone got informations about it, could be fine :)

And if someone wanna trade hats with amiibos, he is welcome !!!

Really?!? I tried afking a couple of times in Smash Run yesterday, but I got very few and bad prizes, no hats offcourse; I don't have plans of getting any amiibo, I already spent too much moneys on this Smash, so I'll pass on this :(
I will try afking a bit more in the next days.
Thank you for the hint anyway!

some times i got Hats from smash Tour !
So maybe after 1 year of being afk, I'll got it xD
But I really hope to find someone who got some amiibos, and who allready have unlock this hat !!!!

About Amiibo, I just bought Samus and Link, my 2 favorite caracters (without speaking of smash bros), I played every zelda and metroïd, so it was cool to get 2 of them :)

FINALLY I GOT IT !!!!!

Was a damn hell !!!

Just for information, i get it in smash tour !
Maybe 55h of afk in this
after :
2997 custom parts (was thinking it was blocked at 2996, didn't go up during a long time, but now i got +1)
more than 75h of 2 amiibo fight 1vs1
450k goldus spent in trophy rush !!
edit : i forgot to say, i used 45+ tickets of crazy hands

And damn yes, I got my last trophy : majora's mask, and my last challenge is done :)

Best solution to get the last hat, is to afk with amiibo if you have to go more than 1h40. And go afk in smashTour if you can check the wii U pad sometimes (for the homerun smash or smash bomb) !!!

Goodluck for those who wanna get all hats ! ;)

I got them all as well. I got the last one (frog hat) with Cpt Falcon (modified) in Crazy Orders. I was around level 15/16, can't remember. I won against Master and Crazy hand with something like 20 hp, I risked to lose it.
The Princess Crown was in Crazy orders as well, but I found it at level 11 and it was a lot easier to defeat Crazy Hand.
