Reminder that the next event is the Hike.
After that is Memory. The event is currently unavailable on preprod, so we'll have to wait until we can get prizes and the number of levels and whatnot, but some info is rehashed from the last few pages

The second paragraph states how Draft Unis will be released. They are available in HoPs, but given that we can get one every time we open a HoP, it's likely just for testing purposes, and if we do get them in HoPs, it may not be for quite a while.


Update to species trophy to account for the new breakdown

whats the drop rate for Aengus?

Aengus after I got him February 17,2019:

I have two Aengus here is what I've recorded from them.

03/21-Hera...04/23-Lyre....05/19-5AP
07/01-Hera....08/09-Lyre....09/18-5AP
10/14-Hera....11/18-Lyre....01/05-5AP
02/07-Hera

03/28-Hera....05/03-Lyre....06/05-5AP
07/13-Hera....08/23-Lyre....09/26-5AP
11/04-Hera....12/16-Lyre....02/03-5AP
02/29-Hera

So about 3-4 months between the Hera packs.

The new divine will be offered in fleeces as a part of the event. Fragments in fleeces range from 9-18. I opened 20 fleeces and got 255 fragments, and at that rate it would take 78 fleeces to get the new divine without any multipliers from the event

Do you know what the multiplayer is for the memory event?

Is it just me that is quite disappointed with the prizes for the memory game? Personally there's nothing on there that I would be excited about, apart from the companion. I know in previous memory game events they've had a Falabella at around level 19/20, which is achievable without using passes, so I think it's a real shame to not have that this time.

I like the look of the new species changes for sure, but does anyone know what that means for existing GA coats? Will they all be reclassified or will we just have no peggy ponies etc for a month or so?

Yes I agree, sort of meh prizes for that aside from the new companion.

Draft unicorns are coming to howrse!! I a maid currently helping test them!

Is it just me or have we seen Aengus be offered more frequently than other divines? I might be refering to the black friday sales, but I feel like him spesifically have been offered often, compared to other spesific divines. [spoiler][/spoiler]

I am very excited for the potential expansion in the Creation Space. Maybe this will encourage me to finally get serious making new coats

Also, draft unicorns will be super, super rare if they can only reproduce three times and it is a 1/5 change for a unicorn. I often go 8 or so breedings without a unicorn born. I suppose the trade off is that the draft unicorn "rejects" will be pretty valuable anyways. I am definitely hoarding Hestias from this promotion

They changed the odds of getting a uni to 2/5 for draughts only. Testers are also trying to get Howrse to higher the odds even further. Also, as of now it doesn't look like the VIP perk to increase the odds of getting a uni works on draughts and testers are complaining that Kaktos doesn't offer draught foals.

I think we can be pretty sure the VIP perk will not work for draft unis. Right now the language says:
"Increase your chances of giving birth to a *unicorn* to one out of 4 instead of one out of 5"

On preprod it now says:
"Increase your chance of breeding a *riding unicorn* or a *pony unicorn* to 1 in 4 instead of 1 in 5"

A small shame, since it would have changed the draft unis from 40% to 50%. Honestly, I'm not sure Howrse will ever release a similar perk because that's a fair increase in the odds. And 1/5 to 1/4 is only an increase from 20% to 25%. One can hope though.

Also, it's been years of me being gone, but I recall new species would typically come about by only getting them if you bought a certain amount of passes. The preprod language makes me think that's what they mean by draft sale. Certainly, sale shouldn't be equated to any luck items. But who knows? I'm not sure how things have played out while I was gone, that's just what I remembered. I haven't seen any kind of confirmation either way.

For anyone who is on preprod for this session, the Creation Directories have updated to show the new classification of species. Existing coats will just take the classification of whatever species wears the coat most. If mostly riding horse pegasus are wearing Pegasus coat X, then the coat will be listed as a riding Pegasus.

For example, I currently have the coat below, "Urban gypsy," on this Thoroughbred Pegasus

But the creation directories on preprod now has it listed as a pony Pegasus because it must be a majority of pony Pegasus that are wearing the coat. My horse on preprod still has the coat.

It looks like most Pegasus coats are worn by riding Pegasus, as there are 268 riding Pegasus coats vs. the 7 pages of pony Pegasus coats.

I dont like splitting the pegasus and unicorn into two different ga categories each...there seems to be too many different categories already. Ugh. Nor do i like that my kaktos, who I earned and spent passes to get, cant even get me a draft unicorn. Double ugh.

That's what I'm thinking, I'm a casual coat collector, and this will make everything complicated (in the CS and trophies, etc) I'm fine with the combined categories.

I'm excited about the draft unicorns, although it will probably be some time before I can get one when they're released. (Players, I'm sure, will be selling them for quite a lot of equus or passes in the beginning. I'll probably be one of those players "waiting it out.")
As for the new promo coming up, I too agree that the prizes are a little disappointing considering we got a falabella in one of the lower levels without having to waste money on passes.
