There's been a lot of questions about what divines will be in upcoming weekends offers. Here's a sort of general guide about patterns the offers tend to follow and how you can track the releases:

1. With the exception of the new divines offered in a luck item alongside the event their fragments are offered in (for example, Odin is in Fleeces at the same time his fragments are in the Memory event), we almost always do *not* test the divine luck items/reserved sale offers on preprod. That means we usually do *not* know when a particular divine is coming back, or how it will be offered.

2. The other exception to the point above is that Howrse has been posting teasers for the upcoming weekend offers the last several Thursdays on their social media pages, and players have been re-posting that here.

3. If you want a general idea of when a particular divine, or its set, is to be released, there are a couple of ways to track the general pattern.
First way: Look up the name of that divine in the horse directortories, then go to the last page to see when the most recent were born, and that will tell you when they were released. The Black Friday(November 29, 2019) and Christmas Packs don't count for this.
Second way: Check out Howrse's Twitter page. You do *not* need an account to browse their feed. I use their Twitter to see when a divine was last released and to see how many weekends have been between divines in a particular set.
4. You can use the information from point 3 to estimate future releases because if Howrse re-releases a divine from a set, the others from it are likely to follow over the next several months (one exception being last year's Zodiac release that stopped mid-way through). Divines from a set are also usually offered via the same way. For example, the Egyptian divines from the recent 2019-2020 release have nearly all been in the Reserved Sales (one exception being Apophis in the Titan's Challenge).

In summary, most of the time our answer to "what's the next divine in X luck item?", or "when will X divine come back?" is that "we don't know." We just make our best guess by looking through the directories or Howrse' Twitter as mentioned above to see when and how that divine, or others from that set, was offered.
