although i pretty much be alone here asking and one of few who likes the sea,is there any chance of new quest hub(like on cloudland,sanctuary,ect) in underwater world? there should be...
after defeating the kraken the mer-king will offer you variety of quests which can be only completed in underwater areas(sba,nate and kaine areas work or in flux) for water tokens which can buy sea based stuff,inculding a mer tail(with variety of colors choice) or your very own,underwater theme!,there should be more sea creatures pets aswell a sea mount,the giant seahorse will work as mount indeed(from store of course),i understand that this isnt anything,but i been thinking lately something that would suit for those who liked underwater like me

I would honestly love if something could be done with Someoneee's idea. I'm definitely a person who loves aquatic things as well, and think it would be really cool to be a mermaid. :)

How do the limits on the small energy pack work? I wanted to use all 20 that I got but was only allowed 15.

Would it be possible to have the ability to switch the background color of the jigsaw puzzle board in the flungeon? Biege or something light would work great. It doesn't happen often, but there are a couple of locations where the pieces match the background perfectly and when you set them they completely disappear. Being able to switch the color similar to how we can change the background of chat would really help.

I tried submitting a ticket, but, it doesn't seem to be working (how do you submit a ticket about a ticket? lol) but, I am having an issue with the bubble buddies event where I can't seem to buy any past buddies. I want the cockatiel one, but, its not showing up in my past store, and its not showing in my Pagas that I have it. I am not sure how to go about getting it either.

An idea to offer something similar to the Mermaid area quest hub request: A new underwater area with a quest hub included, offering eggs, mounts, and customizable items in the hub. Like additional seahorse mounts, a Helicoprion mount, whale shark mount, and basking shark mount. Sea Lion egg, horseshoe crab egg, lion fish egg, catfish/dogfish (for comedy, fish with cat head and dog head) eggs, Coelacanth egg, etc. Customization items, maybe a mermaid costume, harpoon sword/lance, and whatever else others might be able to think of. Overall theme, another Mermaid city or even Atlantis. But, those are all just suggestions to go along with someoneeeer's earlier suggestion.

Hi Nick

I have new ideas for decoration, plants, cultivation:

- the gnomes can be placed on the bed + can slip under the duvet
- various open pots with paint + brushes
- Toolbox
- Wagon wheel to stand on
- Clothesline with clothes
- Ski chance + 2 more gnomes with skis
- Ivy vine, wild vine vine, flower vine for ranch and/or island home
- Flower pots in lighter colors, wood colors
- selectable new exterior color for all houses
- selectable new interior color (for example green - St. Patrick's Day)
- pretty wooden bridge that can be rotated
- green ground cover plants with white or pink flowers or just green
- other flowers + trees to put: delphinium, reed, asters, dahlias, poppies, yarrow, lupinia, birch, bamboo, lilac, forsythia, plumeria, fern, hibiscus, clematis, Japanese maple, almond trees, large conifers without snow
- new plants for energy: lemon, apple, pear, apricot, peach, almond, plum
- new plants for gold: parsley, thyme, chives, mint, garlic, rosemary, basil.


I really like the suggestions from "someoneeeer" and "TheCatWhispurrer". I have other additional ideas about this:

- an underwater world (UW) that you have to work out yourself (through all sorts of tasks, puzzles)
- it would be great if waves were hinted at, like in the existing ocean areas of the game
- I would like to have a house in this UW (recognizable from the outside as a shell, a sunken ship, a snail shell or a cave)
- the house is accessible and the space should not be larger than the space of the island house
- the furniture made from shells, pearls, corals or plants
- the outdoor area is unlocked again via “buy” (like with the island house).

The following items would be a great addition to the exterior:
Diver, treasure chest with opening lid, various corals + shells + aquatic plants, underwater animals.
I could imagine seahorses and jellyfish as mounts.

Thanks for sharing! The Mermaid City would make for a great quest hub location! Before considering more underwater content, I'd like to try and add a toggle for the water visual effect, as it causes some players nausea. With that though, I don't see why not, should we start adding quest hubs to earlier content.

A seahorse mount makes a lot of sense!

Clicking "Use All" on your Small Energy Packs shouldn't have any limit. I was just able to use all 25 without issue. Perhaps you had sent out requests shortly before using all, and 5 of those requests were accepted after using all of what you had?
It's strange! Please submit a support ticket should it happen again.

Sounds like that might be the cave area. I can see the utility in this! I'll note it down to consider.

If you're experiencing issues submitting a support ticket, I recommend trying a different browser. Alternatively, you can email your concern to bw2support@codenameentertainment.com.

Past bubble buddy companions weren't available in the Ye Olde Buddy Boutique this time around, but I'll be sure to add them for the next Bubble Buddy mini-event!

Atlantis would be a great underwater quest hub! I'll note down your mount/pet suggestions as well. I've never heard of a helicoprion before! Very cool.

I do like seeing all the scenes players come up with for gnomes on their ranches :)

Excellent suggestions here! Lots of great plant options for the Spring Garden event in particular. I love the gnome bed idea, but having them tucked underneath blanket might take some tech work. I've noted down these suggestions to consider for a future update.
