Thank you! Your explanation was very useful I think I'll save my passes for a different divine then, since he's going to be expensive and it doesn't look like I'd have enough passes to get him.

Woops, sorry for the double post. I posted once and didn't think it went through

That makes sense. I only have two divines I work and I've seen no more than two dressage comps at a time for weeks.

Already players who host divine comps get 500e each time they run. Maybe we could spread this information around more? Newbies might be easily persuaded, since their EC's aren't worried about prestige anyway and may of them are desperate for more equus. If an update on the game raised the 500e to something better, or offered a chunk of equus or a pass per X times the comp runs, that could also make more players host. Say maybe 25 editions of the race give 20k, with a cap on frequency to stop VIPs from making a mint on hourly comps.

The overflow does become a problem. Also, fewer players are entering their lower horses so comps with one divine tend to stand waiting for a while. More divine comps could go far towards solving this.

A prestige change or way to run divine comps with less worry would be very nice. Maybe make it so only four of your comps count for prestige if one is Divine-only? I understand that adding a new comp would be difficult, but without a change to the prestige the only way for us to get more divine comps is to ask our fellow players to host them.

I agree with Spyder regarding comps. I'm at the point where the only time I comp a Divine is during a promos to get a fast win or occasionally my own cross comp to keep out Guilfaxi. Otherwise they're pretty much just AP farmers now. Far too many useless Divines with no perks and horrible skills that get stomped on by the new so-called Foundys.

As for the new pass system it will ruin my game. As a non pass buyer, those guaranteed 30 pass horses a month pay for my VIP, EC lesson skiller and employees needed to keep my EC above 95%. If I can't pay for VIP my EC prestige will drop without the trainer and vet. I won't be able to offer 1 day boarding, thus lesson price may drop and all 22 VIP perk Divines I own will be utterly useless. I hope like the RC BMI that was proposed and shelved, that with enough players speaking out against this new system (including the servers proving that it's not welcome) Howrse will rethink this plan and either eliminate it entirely or at least come up with a fairer way so it doesn't so adversely affect the majority of their players.

o.0 I so totally thought I was the only one getting fed up with lack of comps for my wilds and divines. Especially the lower skilled ones. I find that right after update...like...literally right after was the best time to comp them and now it's even getting difficult for that. *headdesks*

If the Haven increases, whos to say that the junk horse price won't increase? The bottom prince almost always changes depending on demand on junks for promos.

I would prefer to keep the pass horse system. I work horses all the time and they get age points for my game while they are getting older until they become a pass horse. The 10 passes a month from pass horses, pay my VIP account.

I remember when ther was not a limit on the number of pass horses you could send a month and get a pass for everyone one of them. But also in those days, you could not sell a horse even a devine for more than 20 passes. So was a backward step making it only 10 for a pass, then a bm item. Plus if howrse want to reduce the number of horses, well by cutting out the pass horses, that will reduce the number of horses being sent to heaven, as not many people will bother doing it just to grow a devine with no benefits.

Maybe the new devine should give the pass and grow at the same time. That would work.

What's next deity and the next game?

If more looked at their EC as a way to gain equs a new player could easily put divine only and rookies and get 1500 per race won. Finding entries would be so easy and it almost looks after itself.

Players need to know the the EC is the heart and soul of this game.

I challenge anyone to tell me how this game could run as it stands now with not a single EC available.

Page 1966, first post at the top, in the Spoiler banner. That is where you will find your info.

Here it is:

Bumping

Regarding the divine comp problem (which I agree is a huge problem that only stands to get worse), another thing they could do is allow any divine with skills lower than the current foundy GP to enter open comps like any other horse. The original reason divine only comps were introduced was because divines used to be comp monsters that normal horses had no hope against - the same cannot be said now, especially with divines like Jade and Falabellas. A lot of the time now, even the payout from divine comps is worse than it is for normal comps - a lot of jumping and XC divine comps have a kitty of less than 100e, while normal comps of the same level have kitties of 120e+.
Or they could allow divine comps to run more frequently. 500e per comp may not be enough for some people to decide the prestige loss is worth it, but if all divine comps would run 4 times a day (2,000e a day per comp - 10,000e a day if you have five divine comps), the extra equus may persuade more people, especially new players.



Agreed.
Also, they would need to rethink the trophies. We need at least one horse of every colour of every breed just to get the coats colour trophies, which is hundreds of horses alone. Then there are divine trophies, and GA trophies, and RC trophies, and companion trophies... A lot of my 'dud' horses just sit around adding to my trophy count (and occasionally are AP farmed, which used to be a daily thing before I stopped breeding competitively). Adding new

And so we are getting a bunch more divines at the lowest rate with a terrible drop rate, not even getting skill points to get them competing at a higher level. In fact they will give you nothing for 5-10 days but you MUST care for to get the prediction ( on preprod after 7 days never got all the letters to get even the lowest gift--bell boots). So to me they are another wave of divines taking ( or trying) comps that don't exist.

And don't forget people paid passes ( from pass horses and loyalty points) for this "divine". I didn't want it and was quite harpy it is not another divine in my barn gathering dust.

Not a pretty picture.
