For the Wandering Horses, do you get the horse's profile in a box on your profile when you got it? Like, I see a lot of greek wandering horses in a box on older accounts. Will that happen this time too?

There's a picture of Cactus, but i don't know if it's known where we'll be able to get it

Next big event after Ow's Memories is the Wandering Horses. Like last time we’ll have to wait to unlock some of the horses so not all will be available right from the start. You don’t do anything special to unlock them we just have to wait a few days. The length I had to wait differs from what Equideow players are reporting so it’s possible the wait times will change when this goes live, and as such I didn’t write down what the times were, but the order in which I’m listing them should be the order they unlock with at least two unlocking a day.

You can also give these horses x number of colored crystals, which give 1 point each, to unlock instead of only doing the objectives. I indicated next to each horse what color crystal it requires. Regardless, you have to reach 100 points through the objective/crystal to obtain each Wanderer. You get crystals from: UFOs (players can put them as personal UFOs as well), buying with passes throughout the contest or buying them in Crystal Packs.

List of W.Horses including: crystal color, objective, points give per objective, **my** estimate, and prize.

Taiga: Won at end of tutorial

-Estimate: About 17 log ins required or 100 red crystals
-Prizes: Philotes Stroke, Medusa’s Blood

Bush: (orange crystal) Take part in competitions- 0.1 points per competition ***NOTE*** the points earned per competition entered will likely depend on the number of horses you have so players with less horses should likely get more points per participation.
-Estimate: 1000 competitions for me at .1 point per comp. Or 100 orange crystals
-Prizes: Philosopher’s Stone, Achilles’ Heel

Desert: (Yellow crystal): Give crystals to other horses- 0.3 points per crystal given. ***NOTE*** giving crystals to the community Wanderer does NOT count towards Desert.
-Estimate: 334 crystals given to other horses or 100 yellow crystals given to Desert

It was a horse’s 50th birthday last time, and is the birthday noted on Equideow so it’s *possible* a horse has to reach its 50th this time. Placing a Piece of Cloud Pack on your horse and aging it back worked last edition and worked on preprod as well.

We’re getting crystals in Crystal Packs.

Crystal Packs (1 pass or 10 diamonds): Each pack contains
6 x Blue crystal
6 x Purple crystal
6 x Red crystal
6 x Orange crystal
6 x Yellow crystal

I listed all the prizes next to each corresponding Wanderer in the spoiler above, but here is an overview with Alga’s description

Read through the list of Wanderer objectives to see what you’ll need for each and stock up beforehand since the cost of older horses and Pegasus in sales will go up. During the contest make sure you read when each Wanderer will unlock because points for it won’t count until it’s unlocked. For example, on day one you open Horns of Plenty, but you won’t get points for the Atoll Wanderer because he isn’t unlocked yet.
-Catch all crystal UFOs possible. Though you might want to pass on colors you don’t need so the next crystal UFO will hopefully be a color you do need. EX: Savanna requires you to remove Pegasus wings and he also takes orange crystals. You may want to pass on the blue crystals that go towards easy Wanderer objectives in favor of finding orange crystal UFOs

*****Overall spending:******
There is some crafty math involved here thanks to Desert (give 334 crystals to other horses or 100 crystals to him) but being strategic about how you do this can decrease your pass cost considerably, especially if you already have HoPs in stock because then you only need to buy Crystal Packs. Make sure you leave at least 1 Wanderer of each color crystal unfinished that you can give crystals to to earn points for Desert.

I'd suggest leaving the colors with harder objectives unfinished so you don't have to do that action several times (example, leave the orange crystal horse Savanna unfinished if you don't want to de-wing loads of Pegasi). It will help to list each Wanderer under its corresponding crystal color so you'll easily see which horse needs which color crystal.

My overall advice for this one is to just read each Wanderer information now so you can stock up on items/horses and read the instructions carefully when the contest starts so you know which Wanderer unlocks when.

The Community Wandering Horse
Each time the community gives 2000 crystals to the horse, a Wandering Community Horse is triggered and will wander from player account to player account even after the contest ends and until the next edition of wandering horses.

The goal is that the entire community gives enough crystals to the community horse to activate its appearance on the game.

The number of crystals to give to the community horse to activate a copy is 2,000.

As soon as this goal is reached, the progress bar returns to 0 and you can begin again to give crystals to activate an additional copy of the community wandering horse.

Each copy of the community horse stays on the game after the contest ends until a new edition of the Wandering Horse contest arrives on the game.
Where does the community horse begin?

When a copy of the Community Wandering Horse has been enabled, it arrives in Ow's breeding farm.

Starting from the following daily update, the horse leaves Ow's breeding farm and visits another player's breeding farm for a duration of 24 hours. When this 24-hour period is over, the horse leaves that player's breeding farm to go and visit another player's breeding farm, and so on and so on.

The player who receives the visit from the community nomad is selected from all the players:
- who logged in the day before
- having completed the tutorial
- having not been visited by another Community horse in the last 30 days

When a player receives a visit from the community nomad, they are notified by a private message.

In addition to receiving a visit from the community wandering horse, we offer this player a chance to buy the Wanderer's Spirit item on the Black Market during that period of time.

****note*** it’s possible that more than one community Wanderer could be enabled and float around the game after the contest ends. Underneath his picture you can see we've activated two copies so far on preprod.

So this are Cactus' perks and we'll be able to get it with cards, theme this time is going to be "Far West"

It can be watered instead of being watered.

Her skills increase when you give her dung. The skill gain depends on the amount of droppings given, but also on the season on the game.

When it reaches 2000 skill points, it can be pruned. His skills are then reset to 0, but he offers you 1 x Unicorn foal of a race that the player has not yet!

This horse can not be sold.

Not surprised with the theme, considering the divine.

With the Cactus divine, what happens if you have all the uni breeds? Is it no longer good for anything?

they are speculating it will be like Hipparion, who if you currently already have all the coats of all the breeds when the perk is activated, then you will get nothing. So possibly Cactus will work the same. If you already have a unicorn foal of every breed then you won't get one when his skills reach 2000. In which case you can sell a uni off before you activate his perk.

I'm not sure if that would be worth it though, at least for me, as it's one extra thing to remember with how the Veggie divines work. I found out with my Carnivorus that the skills will reset back to 0 even if you reached over 2000 skills with him when you reset it. Meaning if he had 1990 skills and you accidentally gave it too many droppings that it reached 2010 skills, when you refresh his skills it will go back to 0, and not give you the overhead which would have been 10 in this case. You would have lost some of his skill gain for the day. Luckily, I thought of this right before I gave him droppings that day, and only gave him just enough to activate the perk though that ended up putting him at 2002 or something just due to math. He didn't keep the extra 2 points, but at least I wasn't out more than that.

cactus

Does anyone know how many days the Wandering Horses will stay in your breeding farm after you've completed all their objectives?

How many crystals for one pass, not the crystal packs, just normally?

Oh, yay. Cactus is gonna flood us with unicorn foundies. -sighs- At least the original 350.00s are rare yet.

will there be crystals in the hops? or are we opening a ton of hops for nothing other than to complete the quest of Atoll?
