we Were able to buy//sell drafts on Preprod...

sunken sands

I love the new Indigo Divine! When is he/she coming out? Also any estimates on how many passes we're going to need to get through the Maze? I must have Lovely Blue.

If you want to take the fastest route, or the longer one that holds more stops and a few more gifts.

I'm thinking about just stopping by as many gifts as I can, since I'd love to get a draft horse. But even if I do that, there is no guarantee that I'll find one, since that approach will cost a small fortune in passes.
And if I do choose X path and not Y, there is no guarantee a draft is hiding there, It might be on path Y...or heck it might be hiding in some dead end of the maze.

Driving me crazy much? Yep most definitely

Just note however that it was stated that - while the map itself will not change, nor will the location of Treats and Spyglasses...the location of gifts will change a little.

Here's the two paths one can follow:

Red Line is the shortest in terms of how many spaces you must move to reach the end
White Dot is longer, but allows more moves as you find more treats

And here's the untouched one if you want to find your own path:


If you want the Divine the most - it's best to just shoot straight to her following one of these two paths. After crunching some numbers - I personally recommend following the White Dot Path - as while it is longer in terms of total spaces you must move...you get more 'free' moves due to how many treats you pick up along the way, and find more gifts (which is good because once you reach the end of the maze and get Lovely Blue, you can NOT go back in).

If you don't care about the Divine, and just want a lot of gifts - then any route works.

Devoted Indigo will be coming out when we have the Sunken Sands promotion (if anyone remembers the Cursed Sands - it's the same thing, just underwater). He will be the prize for finding all 100-someting bones of his ancestor.

His image *which is thought to be a rough draft* and perk is as follows;


Devoted Indigo is one of the horses of the rainbow.
It offers you a diamond every Saturday (after the daily update) provided you have logged at least once in the 3 days prior.

Part: 1 x diamond every Saturday
VIP: Use 2 times less energy during dressage competitions or trail class on Saturday
By bringing 7 horses of the rainbow sky, you can get the horse Secret Rainbow.

As for the maze and how many passes on needs to get through - I find I come out to an average of 10 to 30 passes through various calculations

The Red Line path is the shortest in terms of how many spaces you must move.
The White Dot path is longer, but you gain more moves via treats.

To me, they are both about the same speed in terms of moving - but some say the White Dot is faster as the extra treats give you more moves per day.

the next big promotion is the Maze - which will be followed by the Sunken Sands (a return of the Cursed Sands event from Halloween 2013). There will also be a smaller UFO throwing event (the Flower Fight (which is the same as the Snowball Fight, Candy Fight, etc.).

While nothing is known for sure - it is through that the Flower Fight will start shortly after the Piñatas end, then the Maze will start after that. It is unknown just when the Sunken Sands event will start - but it is rumored to be after the Maze.

My guess is probably either next week (the week of the 10th) OR the week after that (The Week of the 17th). To me, the week of the 17th seem more likely as it gives players a chance to recover from the Pinatas...and also allows time for the Flower Fight to happen (provided that the Flower Fight will happen on its own and not at the same time as the Maze).

Flower Fight
*We've got another UFO throwing event - works the same as all the others of the past (snowball fight, candy throwing, etc)

UFOs have been replaced with flowers containing gifts.

The gifts come in pairs. That way, you can give the second one to a friend. All you have to do is throw the flower!

Happy Flower Fight to all!

Rewards
At the end of the contest, the players who have thrown the most gifts will receive:
1st: Greyfell
2nd to 10th: 1 x Nyx Pack
11th to 50th: 1 x Horn of Plenty
51th to 100th: 1 x Achilles' Heel
101th to 30000th: 1 x Medusa's Blood

Maze Information

Treats and field glasses will help you find your way out of the Maze!

How to move inside the Maze?

Move by clicking on the direction you wish to explore.
A Move costs either:
*A Treat
*20% of energy

You will need to choose a horse to follow you inside the Maze to go and rescue Lovely Blue who is kept prisoner on the island.

Depending on the skills of the horse you chose to follow you, you get between 2 and 5% of energy back per hour.

You can change horse along the way but when your horse is registered to help you in the Maze you cannot do anything with him outside. (So you can't care for him at all)

General Notes about the Maze:

Moving backwards/to already revealed spaces DOES take energy

You must actually click on the Gift to gain it.

About Treats:
Treats give you moves that do not require energy - when you land on a Treat in the maze, you get 3 'energy free' moves.

While you can change your horse as often as you like - the energy used remains the same (so if you are at 0% energy - changing horses won't put you back up) - this is because the Energy is different than the energy on the horse's page!

During this event - there will be Treats offered on Level 3 of the Titan's Challenge. The info I found stated that you will receive 6 to 10 treats on level 3 (note as usual, you must stop and claim your gifts)

Screen shots of moving through the Maze;



When you first start - it shows you a list of your horses (it showed all mine with the highest skills, thus the highest energy regain - but you can search for a different one as I did in this image). Notice that at the bottom under the horse's name it says the energy regeneration rate.



The start of the maze - notice there is only one direction to go:


Finding a Spyglass - as well as a fork in the road. Note the arrow over the spyglass indicating to click it to get its benefit:


About the Spyglass;
The spyglass reveals 10 new squares on The maze in order to help you find your way more easily.

Finding a Fertility Wand - again, you must click it to get the gift:

The following are two routes that lead through the Maze to get to Lovely Blue:

Red Line is the shortest in terms of how many spaces you must move to reach the end
White Dot is longer, but allows more moves as you find more treats.

Both routes are pretty quick to get through the maze if your main goal is to reach Lovely Blue.

And here's a shot of the Prize list for the Maze:

The blue number is how many of Each Prize is found in the Maze (so there's no chance of someone having more than 1 Seal of the Apocalypse for example)
