Does anyone know when the draft horses are released?

maze

You need energy (or treats) to move. 20 energy or 1 treat equal one move. To move, you click on the arrow in the direction that you want to move. Those arrows only show when you can move.

So.. to get treats in the maze, we used Titan's Challenges which are 2 passes, instead of HOPs which are 1? :/ Uncertain if I'm getting Lovely Blue or not now..

what do the little eye symbols mean? and what are the red candies?

there look to be some good prizes in there
is this board the same for everyone? And if so, could someone outline the fastest route to lovely blue?
I suppose I'll have to make the decision if I want to go there as fast as possible or if I want to take a slightly longer route and gets some of the gifts I want along the way

thank you for posting HanoJump!

I know that there is an outlined route somewhere a few pages back by ShorahNagi - thanks by the way!

I love how the new drafts look! I do hope they wish the forelock issue on the Shire, but oh well.

The candies are treats, which allow your horse to move without using energy. The eyes are where you find the spyglasses, which let you see a small portion of the maze around you

I hope the maze route stays the same for International Howrse. :v

by following the red line through the spoiler of the Ouranos Server maze these are the gifts you will receive:


F wand
Leather
Carrot
Bell boot
Lyre
Western saddle cloth
F wand
Black box
Carrot
Z bolt
Lyre
Classical saddle cloth
Equus
Helios ray
Leather
Helios ray
Draft horse - Percheron

Classical saddle
Lunge
Leather
t. challenge
equus
bridal
equus
m blood
equus
black square
water trough
equus
golden apple
classical saddle
lovely blue!

However, there appear to be a few times (for example when going around two sides of a square) where with the same number of moves you can also pick up an extra gift along the way; by doing that you'd also get lyre, golden apple, ap, m blood.

this seemed like a bit of a waste of time as I just realized the Ouranos and Gaia Server prizes were different so the likelyhood of the international server having a different gift layout seems fairly likely

The route shown in these two maps are routes that lead out of the Maze.


The Red Route is said to be the shortest way out of the Maze. The White Dot route is another way out - but is longer as the maker of it went to some dead ends to pick up gifts and other perks.

The set up of the maze is the same for all (so everyone can take the same route to get out of the Maze), and will find Treats (the candy icon), Spyglasses (the eye icon), and Gifts (the present icon) in the same spots.

However, while Treats and Spyglasses are the same for everyone...The gifts you find at Gift spots appear to be random between boards. To further explain:

If you look at the 'White Dot' map - you'll notice that there is a Present icon at S-2.

Now, when I landed on that space - I found a 2* Classical Bridle.
Another player found 50x Carrots.
A Third Player found 20x Leather.

So you can see - we all found different gifts at the same spot. Now, before you start to complain about what gifts can be found;

All Maps have the SAME gifts! For example - based on the two known images of gifts on a board, there are shown to be 2 Percherons hidden within the maze. So this means that everyone's board will have 2 Percherons on it to find.

I'll see if I can't get a total 'count' of each gift between the two maps to confirm this.

This didn't take me as long as I thought it would to get a count of how many of each gift is in the Maze. Again - the two mazes are identical, as are the gifts that show on them..what's not identical is where the gifts are;



The blue number is how many times that Prize appears in the Maze (so the 2 next to the Percheron means there are 2 of them in the Maze)

As there is no difference in how the Equus shows on the map - the numbers for them could be wrong (I just took a guess, and of the 5 spots showing equus - this seems like a likely spread (2 of them give 6,000e, 3 give 1,000e))

If you collect all the Prizes - your total winnings are:

2 Whips
2 Bell boots
15,000e
3 Hera Packs
30 Aging points
150 Carrots
1,500 Oats
3 Zeus' Lightning Bolts
4 Fertility Wands
3 2* Classical Saddle Cloths
3 2* Western Saddle Cloths
2 2*Classical Saddles
3 Medusa's Blood
1 Seal of the Apocalypse
2 2* Classical Bridles
60 Leather
2 Showers
1 Hestia's Gift
3 Golden Apples
2 Water Troughs
2 Percherons
3 Philotes' Strokes
4 Helios' Rays
3 Apollo's Lyres
3 Lunges
3 Croesus' Fortunes
2 Titan's Challenges

Maze

how you have to select horses to go into the maze. Can you switch them out? Do they *actually* lose energy in your breeding farm, or is like a special copy of them made to participate in the maze? What "treats" are we talking about? How does their energy regenerate? How often does their energy regenerate? Is that based off of skills or GP? And is there a set time you can move your horse each day? Or is it like you could get your horse's energy down to 0 and then wait 24 hours to get it back to 100% and not waste any energy or something?
Or just a general explanation that makes it not so confusing?
