I really like the fact that I have the option to change objectives. There have been too many times where I was thisclose to getting a H.O.P, but was unable to do so because the objectives were impossible foe me to complete.


Now let's hope we don't get another 'impossible' objective for change (for example there is a limit to the number of drafts I can get pregnant in a week default smiley (lol))

That is the exact screen I am getting and I know for a fact I am on the objectives page, I have done the following -

Cleared caches
Logged out and back in
Checked other servers (CA has it, UK doesn't)

I don't even have the tips and video part of the update.

"Message clarification about equus earned from divine Christmas horses in the financial history."

What equus (other than from mission/lesson and comps) do divine xmas horses earn? Mine have never given me something other than from those sources.

Joyeux Noël can give 70000 equus for its monthly drop.

So when it says you have the option to "swap" an objective for 10,000, does that mean you get another unknown objective to do or that paying the 10,000 will complete that objective?

this is from the daily objectives page? my objectives dont show like that on the front page, usualy a small box with a progress circle. default smiley (o) its refusing to show on my front page at the moment to try and make a comparing screenshot.

but that was from the objectives page.

I'm not sure if I like the layout of the objectives page, but I do love the fact that we can exchange one objective a day in exchange for equus now. That feature is going to be super helpful

I agree, the animations make it feel like it takes so much longer as well. I have 2 of them but I never do anything at all with them because it feels like it wastes a ton of time.

Does the button still appear if you complete one objective? And if it does, does the incomplete objective change or do both? I'm gonna assume only the incomplete one does but howrse likes to keep things confusing and stressful lol

Button still appears if you have done one objective, and the only one that switches is the one you have chosen

The fastest thing I've found for this is to open up multiple tabs of the same dragon (like 6-8) then press ctrl+tab (or cmd+tab on mac) to go through them and click the fight button. Then refresh the initial page and close the others, done with minimal wait time. The mobile version also isn't too bad. But I agree, if they just did away with it and let us click the next fight button instantly it would be so much easier; the fact that there are multiple workarounds people use is a great indicator that it ought to change imo default smiley (8) Others are clicking away from the animation (probably best for slow internet) and refreshing the page each time after clicking the fight button (if you have fast internet this might be best and easiest).

Also, piggy backing on other comments, yay objective swap! default smiley (a)default smiley (y)default smiley (ow)

I'm so thankful for the daily objective swap update. There are many times I've missed out on my weekly progress + that days passes because I got a weird objective. Now I can just pay a sum of Equus and get a better one.

So, this happened, but thankfully I didn't lose my progress, so it seems like a bit of a bug.

The switch out button for the daily objectives is a hit or miss. Decided to switch out 'bed a unicorn' since I don't have any and got the replacement of 'give birth to a unicorn' can I get an O O F.
do different objectives have different prices for swaps or does the price keep going up? swapped one out 2 days ago for 10k. today went to swap one and it wants 20k.
