Daily Objectives: Tips & Tricks

Daily Objectives



You can now complete two daily objectives each day! Some players can earn equus and others passes, depending on your seniority level.

Find your daily objectives on the homepage of the game, which is the page you see after logging into the game.

Completing the daily objectives seven days in a row will give a Horn of Plenty ! You can check on your progress through the gauge bar directly from the “Daily Objectives” page.

Within this thread players who need help, want to help, or just would like to share their progression with the daily objectives are welcome to post here.

All forum rules apply.

Please note that if you want to discuss the feature itself or give feedback on it, we ask that you do so with the dedicated topic thread for new features here: A new year brings new features!

Warm Regards,

The Howrse Team

What is a color bonus?

I bought fodder and it shows in my inventory but not when I click Food. How can I get it there?

When you buy fodder from the store, it is to be used in your Equestrian Centre. If your horses are boarded at centres that provide fodder, they will provide it. When you feed your horses, anything that has green numbers for the food used, is from your own stock. Anything in blue, is provided from the Centre the horse is boarded at.

If you out a saddle cloth, legwraps and ear bonnet, all 2*, of the same colour on a horse, they get an extra competition bonus called the colour bonus. You can find it on their bonus tab when they have the above tack on.

why is there a daily objective to "Give birth to a unicorn" ? Not being a breeder of unicorns- this is the most difficult objective for me..... I only have a few uni mares and if they throw duds- I can only re-breed them after 10 hours!! I always seem to get this objective when I'm close to getting the HOP also.... I honestly don't think this is a fair objective- there are simply to many new and non-uni breeders like myself.....

There is no reason. It's a way of encouraging people to broaden their game. Same with the rosette winning, specific competition winning and donkey objectives.

but it's not the same- the conditions to breed uni's are stricter and more confining- 1 breeding every 10 hours- 20% chance of having a uni foal, and hestias gifts are almost impossible to get.........non uni's can be bred over and over without this rest period.... many horses of all kinds can win rosettes, any (female) donkey without 3 prior breedings can produce a donkey foal- and as far as the competitions- again- many horses can be entered to obtain this objective... the "cover a unicorn" objective is ok- but the "give birth to a unicorn" could take many, many uni mares to fulfill.... Uni's are expensive and the new players are limited on funds and could use the HOP benefits more than advanced players.......for these reasons i believe its simply not fair and should be removed or modified.

I can follow your logic, but I don't think it has to be an impossible task.

Personally, my bugbear is rosette winning, as I never have a horse with high enough skills to guarantee a win. Whenever that one comes around I know I'm losing my streak.

For your unicorn foal predicament, perhaps my system can help you:
I don't have tons of unis, so whenever one is ready for covering, I do that and age them until they are nearly ready to foal, but leave them there until the objective comes around and then I've a handful of mares ready to drop a baby and I can play the odds that way.

Also, on account of them having fewer coverings, unicorn draft horses have a 40% chance of having a unicorn foal rather than 20%, so having a few of those on standby increases your chances further.

Good luck with your game default smiley :)

No, it's not impossible, it's just harder. It's totally up to you if you do the objectives. For that reason, it is not an unfair objective.

Those "advanced players" were most likely also in this position at one point, but they built themselves up, with or without freebies. My best tip for this is to pick up uni mares over time and have them all covered and ready to give birth, then only birthing them when you get the objective, adding any female unis you get to the farm, then eventually getting to the point where you can safely leave some covered and some on the go constantly to add to the farm over time.

This is for asking for advice about how to complete objectives. Private trades such as you are suggesting, are against the rules, and cannot be advertised anywhere.

You can look in sales for horses that match your criteria default smiley (y)

You need a horse to place 3rd in a comp so just enter lots of comps, you should get a third place along the way

I already got it so many times.
You need to get one third place after the objective appears on your page.

If that has happened, try logging off, clearing your cache and logging back on. You can search online how to clear the cache of your particular device.

If it's still not showing as completed you'll need to go to contact us and ask them to look into it

If you enter a good horse, in plenty of competitions, you will eventually place 3rd or better. Tif you have a lower level horse, look for competitions designed for those lower levels because they give that horse a better chance at winning that particular competition.

You cannot advertise that here, as it is against the rules.

You can get coloured tack from luck items, finding them as UFO on players pages, as prizes in events, from certain divines if you own them, from watching advert videos if you are able to access them, and as gifts from friends.

My apologies, I did not realize that was not allowed. I was just simply asking for help with an objective, and did not mean to break any rules. Thank you.

For the maze thing, what horse breed/type can move a wagon? I have tried donkey and drum horse but neither have worked.
Draft horse. NOT a draft uni.
