The names of each cape are clues as to which venue you may find them in. Training Fields, Sandswept Delta, and Bamboo Falls do not drop capes.[/indent] [center][item=duneglider cape][item=firebreather cape][item=gladewalker cape][item=twilight cape] [item=midnight cape][item=winter cape][item=waverider cape][item=woodsdrake cape][/center] [indent]Treasure burning a hole in your pocket?

Or have you got a good handle on where to find all the coolest familiars? Post your thread here! [*][b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=mb&board=int]Introductions[/url][/b]: True to its name, this forum is where you can go to introduce yourself and share a bit about your background. If you love meeting new people, this is the place for you! [*][b][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=mb&board=raf]Raffles[/url][/b]: You asked for it, and we're happy to oblige. A Raffles forum has been created solely for raffle and giveaway threads. We will be, over the course of the next week or so, mass-moving raffle/giveaway threads over here, so keep an eye out! Please bear with us as we make these moves; there are a lot of threads to shuffle, and we would like to ask that you allow the moderators time to get things organized as they are helping as volunteers (not staff) to make the forum experience awesome. [/LIST] [*]We wanted to thank [b]@Kiohl[/b] for all of her exceptional help, as she has stepped down from moderating for the time being. She has a lot of exciting real life opportunities and projects going on, and we here at the team really want to wish her the best of luck as she pursues them! [*]We have made the decision to move the [b]Crystalline Gala[/b] holiday to the end of the month of January. After much consideration, and several suggestions from you guys, we agree that having December be the break month is a better idea for school vacations and holiday planning for those that celebrate. Thanks for your feedback on that! [*]An issue that was causing an unintentionally low 5-egg clutch yield percentage has been fixed. These nests should be more common than they were. For reference, these are the percentage chances in effect: [indent][b]When you interbreed 2 dragons of different species, this table is used:[/b] Because the dice were rolled for species outcome, a chance at a 5th egg is possible! [LIST] [*]5 eggs (5%) [*]4 eggs (10%) [*]3 eggs (45%) [*]2 eggs (30%) [*]1 egg (10%) [/LIST] [b]If you breed two dragons of the same species, this table is used:[/b] [LIST] [*]4 eggs (12%) [*]3 eggs (40%) [*]2 eggs (38%) [*]1 egg (10%) [/LIST][/indent] [*]We are still continuing to roll out Scatterscroll reimbursements, so if you have sent an e-mail, please do not worry. We will announce when we have finished the reimbursements in the event that some messages became lost in the shuffle. We apologize very much for the delay in these getting to you, and thank you for your continued patience while we investigate and attend each ticket thoroughly. [/LIST] [i]***Most enemies in the appropriate venue have a chance to drop the capes, but it is at a very low rate. They're not farmable so much as a treat that will drop from time to time for battlers from this point forward.[/i]
