Quests & Challenges

Gonna go ahead and @Artorias myself here so I can find it again. I've got a long term legacy of war challenge in progress and a huge mass hatch coming up in just over a month for my five year siteversary, so space is a bit of an issue right now. But! This could certainly be an interesting challenge.

Oooh, I’d enjoy this! I’d love to do it, but don’t have ten open slots.

@Dreamnorn

Firstly, that was a terrible, wonderful nature pun, I'm so happy

I like that the team sizes can be pretty different (say, 6 and 10) and get the same amount of battles, with a big jump at certain numbers. I might bump up the number of battles per 5 dragons from 15 to... maybe 20? 25? But, yes, I'll always be staying unbiased!

VII. Comments

Heyyyy, something finally happened! And on this, the third day, the factions aren't even anymore. Although they still have exactly the same level distribution, Green is now slightly in the lead due to the drop. Exciting stuff!

@Dreamnorn *Sees this challenge* Brain: "You have three challenges already. Do not start thi-" Me, spending three hours saving up for two lair expansions: "Lol what" But seriously though, I saw this and was like "Look at all those rules...I love it!" But then I realized I didn't have enough lair space and I already have three whole lore challenges running. But... I lair expansions are 5% cheaper this week... Well, here we are; I have two teams waiting eagerly to start this challenge as soon as they grow up! I think I might start a separate thread for this later, but here are my starting teams if you're interested: House Alstroemeria (Plague, Water, Light, Fire, Ice): [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/417655/41765413_350.png[/img] Faramir [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/417756/41775580_350.png[/img] Tsunami [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/417476/41747520_350.png[/img] Rey [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/418033/41803232_350.png[/img] Ashe [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/417853/41785227_350.png[/img] and Glacius House Myosotis (Nature, Shadow, Wind, Earth, and Arcane): [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/418313/41831250_350.png[/img] Leif [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/417177/41717671_350.png[/img] Moonwatcher [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/418186/41818503_350.png[/img] Reed [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/417736/41773584_350.png[/img] Hermione [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/418202/41820110_350.png[/img] and Cassius At least I'm going to do this challenge on the basis of "lore as I want it but not every day" so I don't have to worry too much about bumping other projects.

@Gender A DROP! This is so exciting! Finally! You were having pretty bad luck with those xD

@BoggyMcBogface The tally system is the same for familiars, yes! So when one faction gets 11 total familiars to drop, they receive a new member of an appropriate element. ^^

(Also, I just realized I never answered your question about adapting the challenge so that its personal "rollover" doesn't correspond with Flight Rising's. I know it's a moot point by now since you've started your challenge already, but I say sure! :D As long as whoever does so keeps the challenge "rollover" consistent, they're set!)

@Artorias Ooh, I'm glad you find the challenge interesting and would like to come back to it! Best of luck on your Legacy of War, by the way. :D Are you doing an All From Nothing variant, by any chance?

@SashaFiredrake Glad you like it! ^^ And lol, I understand the pain of limited lair space. If you decide to start a TvNCC if/when you get more space in your lair, please feel free to share!

@Gender Heheh, I couldn't resist planting a pun right there. ;D I'll stop, don't worry. Congrats on your first interesting drop, and on Green for taking the lead! I look forward to seeing how your challenge progresses now that you've ramped up the number of daily battles as well. :D

@TheAwesoMew Oh my goodness, I'm thrilled that you pounced on the Dom bonuses to get extra lair space to start this challenge! Your starting set of dragons are so cute, too. :D Feel free to ping me if you start a TvNCC thread of your own; I'd love to subscribe to it if you do!

@Dreamnorn - I exalted a bunch of dragons yesterday and freed up some space, so I went ahead and started buying dragons for this, lol! I just can't resist lore and coli challenges. I'll probably start this once I've got some basic lore down and the hatchlings have grown up.

Thanks! And I am indeed. 7 of them actually :') It's a very long term challenge.

@BoggyMcBogface @Dreamnorm

I am back with a brand spanking new thread for my challenge =) I am still waiting for some of my challengers to grow up but I am taking this time in the interim to pretty up my pages and set up the background information. I have all the posts saved that I need so if either of you (Or anyone else interested that sees this) want to either mark it, subscribe to it or ask to be put on a pinglist let me know!

Let's check... " a venue deemed "fair" with the levels of each party member considered" and one that must give exp. Hmmm... I'll go with the average of the party's levels for now (about 4) if only because the Woodland Path will give more exp.

YEAH, LOTS (their health kept getting [i]super low[/i] [LIST] [*]After the 1st battle. I forgot how much of a big difficulty step this venue is lol [*]After the 5th battle. OH BOY THOSE TURKEY THINGS ARE DANGEROUS that was [i]close[/i]. At least I can give Gemstone her level 4 stats now [*]And after the 6th [*]after the 11th [*]after the 18th [/LIST] Fainted? No Levelled up? Yeah! All of them to level 5 (Gemstone only just on the last battle!) [b] III.

Replaced her with Rainwater (starting level 4) [*]3rd battle- Rodney levelled up to 4. Took a break after because all three of them had less than 100 health. Updated Rodney's stats, hopefully he'll be quick enough to actually help now. WAIT. HE STILL HAD HIS LEVEL 1 STATS OH MY GOD NO WONDER HE WAS DOING NOTHING. OKAY. Geez the other 2 didn't have the right stats either? WELL IT'LL BE EASIER NOW I GUESS. [*]7th battle- took a break after, Radiation got below 100 [*]12th battle- [u]Radiation fainted[/u]. This was my fault because his health was low enough to have taken a break for a few battles before this but I wanted to push forwards to keep that %EXP bonus streak... He loses one LP and is replaced by... well, it has to be Rebecca. I have to be more careful and stop chasing those level ups quite so much! He was so close to 5 though,,, Next time. Next time. Let me just check that Rebecca has the right stats. Yep. Okay! Moving on [*]14th battle- Rainwater levelled up to 5. Also, OH GOOD FREAKING LORD NEVER LET ME LOSE BOTH THE SCRATCH USERS OF THIS TEAM AGAIN. 2 Anticipate users and a Mediate user are making this THE SLOWEST COLI TEAM TO EVER COLI [*]Fled- 2 clown chargers??? with this team???? It did not go well! What happens when I flee... uhhh... LP penalty, okay. I think my extra rules mean I don't roll a die? Let's see... oh! No, I don't! Okay, Let's roll! I got a 1, a 1, and a 5, so the third dragon, [u]Rainwater, loses 0.5 LP[/u] [*]18th battle- glitched out so """""took a break"""" after the 17th one :/ [*]18th battle take 2- took a break for real after, Rodney was abt to faint. [*]19th battle- Rodney levelled up to 5 [/LIST] V. Hoard Update: Red Faction Finances: 0t Tallies: - Items: - VI.
