1530 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 30th 2021 at 8:53 AM Last Edited January 30th 2021 at 9:54 AM ArmyMomOkc I agree with Doc in that I wish the bonus would be higher. I was disappointed to see 15-20%, which is lower than many event pets. If it was at least 30% I think it would be more enticing. Which would be less than the beloved Meerkat but still a great bonus. Other than that I like this mini event & am happy to add to my butterfly collection ðŸ¦‹ (Edit - or does the % go up each time the needed number is reached? The description isn't very clear. The current status of needed purchases hasn't changed from 15 for the last 3 hours I have been playing.)
127 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 30th 2021 at 10:04 AM DocHoneydew You misunderstand. The buff on the Meerkat was +mana find. That's a handy buff. The buff on the Smolder Horse is Nothings to Mana. That's not as useful, so less people would buy the horse thus not increasing the eventual final buff ability. (The more people buy the pet, the higher potential buff at the end.)

Any bonus at 15%-20% isn't that great as an incentive in my opinion. If we were to get a max 45% of less nothings, nothings to mana or more mana would be awesome.

My fingers aren't keeping up with my thoughts this morning. My point is any bonus with a better % (which is the goal of the group purchases) regardless of the bonus would be a better incentive. Yes, I did misunderstand your desire to have the same bonus or buff as the Meerkat.

At the moment it's less than you could get for a purple DNA augment from PAGAS but if enough people buy one then it should get better. For me that bonus isn't as useful, but it is a pretty pet and cheaper than normal when bought on its own so I'm still weighing up whether to buy it.

Unless I missed it I didn't see how much it would go up for each level of purchases. Seeing it not progress made me think maybe 20% would be the max. I didn't get my Meerkat from that event, didn't know how it got it's awesome bonus. Anyway, I bought it since if we all wait then the goal can't be reached. ðŸ¦‹

305 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 31st 2021 at 6:37 AM Kate (aquafishy) I think the bonus on the smoulder horse is awesome for players in the early stages of the game. From a business point of view, it would make sense, I think - as it would cement new users' loyalty to the game, and compensate for the insane amount of nothings you get when at lower levels, without great runes. As a higher level player, the community challenge pets I would love to see: Event Drop Chance to double mana An "energem" type pet Though they'd likely skew the game too much. I did buy the smoulder horse, I am interested in seeing how this new dynamic might work, and it's hella cute :D
372 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 31st 2021 at 7:45 AM phagras I bought it too in the end. I don't know if there are simply fewer players than when the meerkat was offered or if players don't like the bonus. I'd like to see another nothings to rune powder pet.
1530 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 31st 2021 at 8:21 AM ArmyMomOkc Yes, that would be a good one. I don't have many of those. I'm hoping there's a problem with the count not updating & Nick can fix it.
560 Posts	Link to post - Posted January 31st 2021 at 5:04 PM Horsedancer1 Yes, I bought the Merkat and that was fun. I expected this pet % to go up, too. And it sure isn't. But @nickshire, the event date in the game is from May 27 until May 28. Is this event only going to be for two days?
1530 Posts	Link to post - Posted February 2nd 2021 at 8:01 AM ArmyMomOkc Nick There seems to be a problem with the purchase count for this event. I know of 4 purchases since Friday. Even if those were the only purchases shouldn't the status show 11 instead of staying at 15? As Horsedancer pointed out the quest description had May 27-28th dates noted as the date range. I hope you can look into this before the event is over. Thanks!
560 Posts	Link to post - Posted February 2nd 2021 at 9:24 AM Horsedancer1 I just checked again this morning, and it is still saying it needs 15 more to get up to level 20. Won't sell many critters with only 15% bonus. @nick, can you get this fixed. It was loads of fun when you did the Merkat feature! Thanks!

560 Posts	Link to post - Posted February 3rd 2021 at 8:05 AM Horsedancer1 It's not noon yet but the horses are still saying they need 15 MORE to get to 20% bonus. And this is a bonus I like, nothings to mana! My Mercat is at 40% mana increase and is the pet I use the most! 15% total bonus is sure not worth anything.
3661 Posts	Link to post - Posted February 3rd 2021 at 10:46 AM Nickshire (CNE Dev) Hello hello! There was an issue with the Smolder Horse bonus not increasing. So very sorry about that. All your Smolder Horses have been updated with the correct maximum bonus of 40%! Fantastic job coming together to boost the Smolder Horse!
