From [b]Thursday, June 11th[/b] (06:00 Server Time) to [b]Monday, June 15th[/b] (06:00 Server Time), all players will experience a couple of battle-related [b]boosts[/b]! [size=5][b]Bountiful Battles[/b][/size] For the duration of Sunparched Prowl, [b]all Coliseum enemies will have the chance to drop meat food items in addition to their normal loot[/b]. Other site activities such as [b]gathering, breeding, bonding, brewing[/b], and [b]visiting[/b] some of the trading post dragons will also yield a chance at meat! Dragon clans everywhere are taking this time to [b]stock up[/b] on shanks, flanks, ribs, haunches, steaks, and more to keep them satisfied until the autumn. [center][item=Salted Game][item=Bundle of Haunchmeat][/center] [size=5][b]Battle EXP Boost[/b][/size] During the event, all battles will yield [b]50% additional EXP[/b], so now is a perfect time for dragons to train. Grab your newest team and head out into battle! [size=5][b]A Swarm of Treasures![/b][/size] Dragonkind are not the only ones taking advantage of the burgeoning herds and expanding flocks. As the savannas, forests, and tundras play host to many more hooves than usual, calculating cats join the prowl. A couple species of wildcat use their expert eyes and noses to track small and large game alike, including the [b]Grasslands Chimera[/b]. For the duration of Sunparched Prowl, the lynxes will [b]drop fairly commonly in the Coliseum and rarely during Hunting[/b]. Once the herds numbers have been responsibly culled, they'll go back into hiding, but there's always a chance you may run into one or two while [b]Hunting[/b]. The [b]chimeras[/b] will also drop from the Coliseum and rarely from all type of gathering activities. Once the herds numbers have been responsibly culled, they'll go back into hiding, but there's always a chance you may run into one or two of the lynxes while [b]Hunting[/b]. A vista and scene have a chance to drop in the coliseum and many other site-related activities.
