Bright Eyes | Announcements & News

I'm a bit torn on this. On the one hand, being able to get natural eyes on existing dragons is a great thing - I had a horrible time using scattersights just to change eye tints and that was awful. On the other hand, this is bit of a slap in the face to everyone who spent thousands or even hundreds of thousands of gems on primal gen ones, or months and years on a breeding project. The prices you've settled on for these vials are [i]extremely cheap[/i], relatively speaking, for the effort that went into breeding projects or the rarity/scatter effort of getting a gen one with good colors. I've got a pair breeding for a plague primal that I assembled when eyes came out and it still hasn't given me a primal. 500kt is nothing. Desirable primal g2+s already sell for more than that. Definitely appreciate that the community has been listened to on this, but my personal feelings are mixed. [quote name="hungryhobbits" date="2021-05-03 07:31:07" ] i think its so funny that the people that are the most upset about this update are the ones that are scattersight hoarders and overinflated price g1 sellers meanwhile everyone else is so happy because we can do our eye specific projects with one less hurdle [/quote] I sell g1s hella cheap, when I do. But I've also spent over 20kg between four g1 primals, so give me a minute to mourn. And even then, I haven't been burned [i]half[/i] as badly as other people have. All of the scattersights I used were ones I farmed myself, bar one or two, so I'm not down millions on the 'get dark brown eyes on this dragon instead of light brown' front.

"...the dividing line between past, present, and future is an illusion..."

WHAT?!?!?! This is crazy cool! I must say I'm pleasantly surprised. And happy with the decision to make all natural eye types available for treasure.

Thank you staff. I think you've made a lot of people very happy today

[quote name="LucidDreams" date="2021-05-03 07:13:30" ] Wow...this is a great update, but I REALLY wish I'd sold my remaining 20 scattersights instead of hoarding them haha [/quote] Yep, rip to those who were keeping those for quick cash. Still, this update is great!
