If its an uni, the normal uni rules apply if you want a chance of uni foals.
Im quite sure the plague coats works separately from it. Uni plague foals would be cool but the chance would be really small!

Ok, so this may seem a little early, but what is the Christmas update going to be about? I was thinking maybe a calendar that each time you log on for that day, you can receive a gift. Kind of like an advent calendar, with the little chocolates? Possibly make the gifs get better the closer you get to Christmas, like on the first day you can get a bundle of apples, and on Christmas Eve you can get a Harmony Pack or something!

What do you guys think, is that a good idea? default smiley *-)


Who knows - we just got done with Halloween and have not started any new tests yet for changes to ECs, new promos, etc.

We have had - in the past, Advent Calendars...but there has not been one for a few years now...Instead we've had the Magic Ride

Who knows though what's in store...

Don't get too excited - there has not been any talk of Howrse doing an Advent Calendar this year *Unlike other sites - Howrse does not do a yearly Advent Calendar*

If we have one - it is done as a promotional event (but as I said - there has not been one for at least two years now)

Hey everyone - I've looked through the last few pages and didn't see anything about it... can someone confirm/deny this hint that was posted on the US server?

Click to display


A BMI which permanently reduces the time crops need to grow by 3 days. As in, put it on a meadow and all the crops you'll ever grow on that meadow are grown faster. It is not known if this will stack with manure fertilizer.


Again, I have no idea whether it is true - but the screenshot looks fairly legit. I just wanted to check if anyone else has heard this and/or if we know where it came from.

I have not seen this anywhere on here - and that mention the US server seems to be the only mention of it.

Though this wouldn't be the first time that an item shows up and looks legit - then never sees the light of day for one reason or another [be it it didn't work in testing, unbalanced things, etc]

I'll see if I can't find anything more about it however

The original poster on US just said they got it from the French spoiler zone... I don't have a french account so I can't check that.

Yeah, I saw that.

For fun - I just tried to see if I can find an image of the item...seems to be no luck for me as I get an authorization screen with the URL I tried

It can come on either Gender - however, it is the rarest of the coats to get

The exact chance is not known - but thanks to numbers from here and testing, I feel it is probably a 10% chance or less [more likely less] that a player will get the Pestilentia coat

Again though - that's just based on my observations...someone else might see differently than I do

I'm not sure if it's true or not but I saw someone say in the SOA topic that a admin said two plague parents increase chances significantly default smiley :)

I believe we worked it out to be around 6% chance so it will take a few tries unless you are very lucky.

I saw that post too. I wonder if that means the probabilities are stacked somehow. So if the chance of passing down the coat is 20% from a single Pestilentia parent then having both parents be Pestilentia's would make the chance 40% (?) (those aren't the real numbers by the way, I just made some up for the example). Or, is there some sort of bonus to having both parent being Pestilentia - the probability becomes greater than the sum of its parts perhaps default smiley *-)

Having two Pestilentia coat parents wont increase the probability or make give it a bonus, it would be just like crossing Two cremellos, you will not have a better chance of getting a cremellodefault smiley ;)
