Daily objectives

HellOw,

After completing the Beginner Objectives, you can complete two daily objectives!

Depending on your seniority level, you will either win Equus or Passes.

How to find your daily objectives:

On the homepage of the game, right after you log in to the game.

By clicking on "Achievements" and then on "Daily objectives".

If you complete 10 daily objectives before the timer runs out, you will be able to open a Horn of Plenty .
You can check the timer and progress through the gauge bar directly above your objectives.

Swapping objectives:

You can swap one objective once a day.

There is a blue button with arrows on each objective. If you click on it, you can use Equus to swap it with a new objective.

On this topic, you can:
↪ Ask for help to complete your objectives.
↪ Share your progress.
↪ Share tips and tricks with other players.

For Congratulations requests, please use this topic: Looking for Congratulations?

All forum rules apply, which includes no advertising.

Have fun completing your objectives!
The Howrse Team

Any tips on how to get a horse to finish first in multiple competitions in a row for an objective?


Having a recent highly skilled rosette winner is a pretty good way but it means a costly investment if you don't have one already.

Or, I also go with a decently-skilled horse in the middle of a BLUP, and load them with bonuses, and then enter competitions I know they should be able to win (depending on their breed). It can take a few aging points sometimes.

That's just my take on that objective though, another player might know a better way.

It means to cover a draft mare, i.e. accept a covering offer and impregnate her. If you don't own a draft mare and a draft stallion that both have coverings, you likely won't be able to complete this objective. Draft horses are limited to 3 covers in their lifetime, so public draft covers are usually never available, and you need to own the female and cover her yourself in order to validate the objective (as opposed to offering a public draft covering and having someone else accept it, which I would advise against anyway as draft covers are so limited).

However, if you want to invest in a breedable draft pair (I recommend buying two foals to ensure they both have all 3 covers), you can use that pair 3 times and thus validate that objective 3 separate times. *And* you'll get draft foals out of it, which you can then use to validate that objective indefinitely when it pops up.

You cant do that here, sorry. Have a read of the opening comment. Forum rules apply. You are advertising that you need something.

You can ask *how* to do something in this forum topic, you cannot ask for people to do it for you.

Go through your friends. If you know anyone offline, then ask them for help. Put a note on your page and congratulate your friends. Make a pact with your friends that if any of you get this objective, you will help each other. Randomly send a friend that you know is online a lot a gift and hope they understand and send you back.

Aw man, sorry. I understood the sentence "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." wrong. default smiley :)

I understood that you can ask for any kind of help with the objectives. Not just like asking how to do something, but also if they need to sell a horse or get a gift or something for their objective.

If you read the conversation above you, and the rules of this thread, you can’t ask people to give or lend you things for objectives. The purpose of this thread is to ask *how* to do objectives.

Back again! So my objective today is to win a rosette but I don't think I've ever seen a competition with a rosette. What skill level horse do I need to do this?

I am estimating around 4,800 skills in the horse's top skill only to see rosettes in their best competition, give or take. Not sure of the exacts. But you'll need a horse with 6,500+ skills in that top skill to have a chance of winning.

As per my answer above:

Go through your friends. If you know anyone offline, then ask them for help. Put a note on your page and congratulate your friends. Make a pact with your friends that if any of you get this objective, you will help each other. Randomly send a friend that you know is online a lot a gift and hope they understand and send you back.

One of my objectives is to win a golden horseshoe in an event. What are the events or where do I find them and participate?

Are you doing the Pinata event? The one advertised on your home page and at the top of the main page. You get golden horseshoes from participating in events. You can get trophies for them too (on your my trophies page). At the end of the event, anyone who has managed to get at least 2 horseshoes gets put into a draw to win the Divine on offer.

I am having a hard time and need some help! So I am looking to compete for rosettes with some of my higher ranked horses that have terrific skills & genetic potential. Some with +100 BLUP and some that are close to +100 as well. Every time I go to enter them in competitions, there just never seems to be any with a rosette. I don't assume they are that hard to find because I used to own a Vanner that had 80+ rosettes and every time I went to enter him in competitions, there were plenty that had them available. I hope this all makes sense, I just don't understand why I cannot find a single rosette competition. Am I looking in the wrong spot? Some of the horses I am wanting to gain rosettes for are in my Vanner breeding farm and Summer who is in my Immortal breeding farm.

GP and BLUP is irrelevant to being able to see rosettes, the horse just needs skills of around 4,800+ in its top skill, if not more, to see any rosette comps.

I did not look through all of your vanners but I did look at Summer, who has skills in her top skill high enough to see rosette competitions (but perhaps not to win them, or at least it will be very difficult, I'm afraid). Are you entering cross-country comps? Remember to filter by kitty (if you filter lowest, they may not show, but if you click to filter from highest, the rosette comps should show).

Having said this, I am not experienced in vanners with rosette wins so it's possible that your horse's skills just aren't high enough to see them? I really couldn't say for sure obviously.

Hi! I’m stuck on one of my Objectives. ❤️ The Objective is “Find 3 aging points when your horses wake up” I’m confused and I don’t really understand it. Any ideas? ❤️

If you bed your horses down before the daily update, the following day after the update you have a chance of finding an aging point when you wake your horse. So all you need to do is go through and wake up all the horses you bedded down yesterday before the daily update and hope that you find 3 APs. If you really want to complete the objective you can also take care of and age your horses with APs, as horses aged with APs still have a chance of finding an AP when they wake up.

For reference as well, if you have visited the horse since it last woke up and it found a point you won't get it, this is because aging points are collected on the first visit to the horse's page, it doesn't matter if you don't do an action.

What are the special features and how do I use all 4 of them? This is my daily objective and it says I have 3 out of 4 of them already. default smiley :)

They are all displayed prominently on your beginner objective page. You unlocked EC creation when you had done 25 objectives, Direct sales when you had done 50 and Grand Prix when you had done 75. Once you have done 100 and unlocked reserved sales and done the tutorial you will have all four.
