I'm confused about the 5th Element thing...they look no different to me? Maybe because I'm on my mobile (on classical version though)?

"Removal of the "Remove a Pegasus' Wings" objective from the daily objectives"
I think it should be added back, personally I accidentally gave it to a horse medusa and I want to lift its wings. I don't understand why you did it like that, it's a very bad idea.default smiley :(

HOWRSE please don't take this post badly, thank you.

I am so grateful for the removal of the Remove a Pegasus' Wings objective!!

As a player who's trying to get the trophy for a pegasus of every breed, it's always irritating to have to remove an item that took a week to obtain. Personally, I don't get why any person would want to remove wings, since it give a (although small) bonus to the skills, which is always good for general ranking.

Thank you Howrse!

I love the change, but I think it should always be an option to remove your horses wings. And if they remove the "remove a woy" objective I'd say the same thing.

I wish you would remove from the objectives: "remove unicorn horn" , instead of the wings.

Right??? You can remove wings and get them back, but not with a horn!! If I have that objective, I usually just skip it

Agreed! I've been playing this game for so long and am just a little bit of a hoarder, so I have a huge stash of MB's at this point, so removing wings wasn't a big deal (though I'm glad it's gone anyway, because I know it was a big deal for others). But de-horning a unicorn is such a pain. I never have any "spare" unicorns among the ones I bred myself, I always have to go buy one. I would rather see that go.

(also winning a rosette. I think that's actually the objective I hate the most. The curse of being a casual collector instead of a competitive breeder lol I never have good enough horses for that objective. I have a Gulfaxi, but even with that I either can't find any comps awarding rosettes, or the comp doesn't get enough horses to run by the end of the day)

Yeah I didn't like that objective either and I also don't like taking the horses off unicorns so what I do for those objectives is I buy a random horse that I don't care about that's cheep and take the wings or horn off.

I had no problem with removing pegasus wings. My problem is remove a unicorn horn and win a rosette. Unicorn horns cannot be put back on. And if you don't have a horse that can win one, it is impossible to reach that objective.

Yeah that would help a lot.
I second that. Remove a unicorn horn and win a rosette are far less preferable than remove pegasus's wings, in that horns can't be replaced and most players aren't able to access rosette comps

Yea, on doing away with remove wings I also wish they'd do away with remove a horn. I know, I know these horses are 'just pixels' but...I usually just skip those as that is just plain mean and cruel!

On another note I thought they had removed the objective to reach a certain age last time however, I'm still getting that objective.

I would like to see both, remove wings and unicorn horns gone from the objectives .
It hurts me when I have to remove a unicorn horn! I do mostly skip that objective. I love the unicorns! They bring a bit of 'fairy tales' into a' too real' world! Thanks.

Can I mention Divines here? I like the older Divines and am not a fan of horses covered in vines and all kinds of things that take away from what horses really are! Thanks.

I agree 100%!

Happy to see the remove wings from Pegasus, but please consider discontinuing the 'remove the horn from a unicorn' objective. Thank you.

I agree! I hope this objective remains an option for future Great Challenge events, at least! I use it to remove unwanted wings and coats from my collection of foundation horses.

I can see removing the unicorn objective, but winged horses are far more common, plus the effect can be reversed.

....and if you're going to remove objectives, how about the one asking you to receive a gift from another players? Pretty tough to complete that one without PMing someone to ask for a gift, which is against the game's rules. I went to Conatct Us about that a while ago, who said they would pass that to the Devs, but do not know if action was taken.

Just a quick thing I noticed- on the mobile version notifications the pictures in the icons are definitely a bit bigger.

Thank you Howrse for taking that dreadful Pegasus objective off, now let’s see the unicorn one go...
Howrse ! remove wings not a bother, we can put them back with a Medusas Blood
