Maybe Howrse will put Shires in there for us?!

the Halloween one we had, where we dug fir the artifacts and hirsey bones, to put the skeleton togather. And some times you found the curse that messed you up.

This ones under water, and I bet if you hit the wrong place a mine explodes and messes you up.

It would be great if haffies would be introduced on it. The best of all the breeds.

Shire in that promo, if it comes this month.

It basically seems to be the Cursed Sands underwater as the small bit of info I found originally translated to this:

transform into adventurer ! Scour the seabed and discover sunken gifts. But watch out for traps!

* How to conduct a search ?

- Choose where you want to search
- Find out what is hidden
- Wait for a new search
- Swap your equipment and your relics for more efficient equipment

* Jackpot

Find all the bones of the ancestor of the horse Devoted Indigo him join your party!
~~
Which all of this is exactly how the cursed Sands worked;

Dig for bones and other prizes
Find all the bones - win the Divine
Find things as you dig to trade for better equipment to receive more digs
if you found a trap - you were blocked from digging for awhile (as if memory serves, digs happened at certain times)

My guess is we probably would get the Haflinger as a prize for our missing breed (as different servers get different regular breeds).

The Shire will probably done in a different promotion for all servers (as it's an entirely new breed and species for all servers)

The principle:
Find all the bones of the ancestor of the horse Devoted Indigo and it will join your party!
How to conduct a search:
- Choose where you want to search
- Find out what is hidden
- Wait for a new search
- Swap your equipment and your relics for more efficient equipment
- Traps

-> Each mine you can perform additional searches. In addition, the mine allows you to more easily find bones & gifts, and avoid unpleasant surprises!

Devoted Indigo

Here's the explanation (I tried my best to translate it, my french is a bit rusty )


You have to search the seabed to find bones and win prizes (and divine) traps make our task harder
There are 162 bones to find

~ How to search? and with what? and how often can you search?

To search you must click on one of the 10 plots available, you can click up to 3 times on the same plot. After the third dig a whirlwind will make the plot like new again (nothing is lost)
At first, the tutorial gives you mask and snorkels that allow you to search 10 times / day, to delve, we must trade our tools to get better one with the relics (findable also looking around) NB: You have to wait for the next day to barter (if you already did one the previous day)

~ Pay Packs

To go faster, mining packs will be available along the Contest, each pack contains 3 mines to perform 3 searches and have less chance of having a trap, there will be specials offers for more mines packs

~ Traps:

You have a chance to find a trap while searching, you can wait 6 hours for the trap to vanish, complete a task (or skip the objective with 10,000 Equus or playing a video)




And apparently the pic of Devoted Indigo is not a rough one but the definitive one!

that's the Cursed Sands ~ just underwater instead of in the middle of the Desert.

Also, in regards to Indigo - the image could still be a rough draft...Howrse has in the past used a rough draft image as a place holder during testing (Qilin had this happen actually). I would wait until either we start testing OR the Divine is actually released before making a definitive call.

I strongly disliked the Cursed Sands. I constantly got trapped. Not exactly a fan of a different version returning.

I like the fact that its going underwater...However, I hated the Cursed Sands. It was very tedious (more so than Piñatas) and I had horrible luck with digging (I think I found maybe 20 of the 100-something bones needed for Osiris at the time - and didn't find a lot of prizes either)

Here's hoping they've made some changes - or improved the odds a little. Otherwise, I don't see a lot of players getting their hands on Indigo - as by my count, there are only 310 Osiris Divines that were won from the Cursed Sands. All others were either gotten for Pass Buying Deals (such as the one a few years back where for buying 100 Passes, you got the Divine of your choice (There were some exceptions to what you could pick) or from the recent Reserved Sale of him).

This is a bit of a far cry compared to some other Divines in my opinion (Shiny Yellow for example is almost at the 300 mark, and there is still 3 days left so this number will rise) but we'll see what happens.
