[center][permalink][img]http://flightrising.com/dropbox/updates/notn2022.png[/img][/permalink][/center] From the veiled brambles and branches of the Tangled Wood, the elusive Nocturnes are beginning to spread across the realm. These oft-hidden dragons are again leaving the comfort of their dreary habitats and traversing Sornieth under the cover of darkness. On this, the shortest day of the year, [b]Nocturne [/b]dragons rule the skies. [center][permalink][b]Click here to read more about this event.[/b][/permalink][/center] [more] ------------- [center][img]http://flightrising.com/dropbox/header_nocturnedragons.png[/img][/center] [i]Night of the Nocturne[/i] is the annual celebration of one of [i]Flight Rising[/i]'s [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=wiki&article=17][b]Limited[/b][/url] breeds. Once a year, Nocturne breed change scrolls become available exclusively during this event! Nocturnes have a 30-day breeding cooldown and eat [b]Meat[/b] and [b]Insects[/b]. [center][img]http://flightrising.com/dropbox/noc_family.png[/img][/center] --------------- [size=5][b]Event Details[/b][/size] From now until [b]January 1, 06:00 server time[/b], it will be possible to obtain Nocturne Dragons in the following ways: [LIST] [*]Finding rare [b]Unhatched Nocturne Eggs[/b]. [*]Finding very rare [b]Breed Change: Nocturne[/b] scroll items. [/LIST] The items above will be found in [b]Strange Chests[/b]--baffling containers left by the breed during their only two weeks of activity. Nocturnes aren't keen to just shower the realm in gifts, however. Several of these chests have a vicious mind of their own, and some are now known to be under the protection of some new clever and camouflaged foes... In order to find these chests, participate in daily site activites such as gathering, brewing, hatching, bonding, exalting and more! ...or test your skill and battle Mimic monsters in the [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=coliseum][b]Coliseum[/b][/url]. Mimics can be encountered in all Coliseum areas, with higher level mimics having a greater chance to drop a chest. New this year, [b]all coliseum enemies will have a low chance of dropping event items[/b], but mimics will have a much better chance than a normal opponent. If you can't battle, don't worry! [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/trading/baldwin][b]Baldwin[/b][/url] is always seeking new alchemists to help him craft the perfect brew to unlock the secrets of these chests. It will also be rarely possible to find [b]Unhatched Nocturne Eggs[/b] while [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=gather][b]scavenging[/b][/url] in any elemental region. After two weeks have passed, Nocturnes, their eggs, and their [b]Strange Chests[/b] will become scarce until next year, when they again return.

This interesting adaptation can have its drawbacks, though. Find out more about the Shadowbinder's sneaky sentinels in the lore article below: [center][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=wiki&article=63][img]http://flightrising.com/dropbox/button_noclore.png[/img][/url][/center] ------------------- [size=5][b]What's New This Year?[/b][/size] Another year brings new chances at unique [i]Night of the Nocturne[/i] exclusive items!
