The second batch of silk apparel is now available in the treasure marketplace, a registration window, plus many new changes and additions!



Gem Marketplace:
For even more extravagance, dark silks with shimmering fragments of jewels are now available in the gem marketplace.


Swipp Trades:
Swipp has spent months seeking out the finest crimson silk available. With a secure monopoly on this resource, he is now actively trading these silks to all the dragon clans. New crimson silk trades are available.


New Gathering Items:
As clans continue to become more skilled at their gathering trades, new items are being caught, harvested, and unearthed.

Marketplace Skins:
Two new skins are now available in the gem marketplace. These skins will place a fancy new coat of paint on top of your mirror and wildclaw ladies! Thanks to @mechadragon and @razrroth

New Coliseum Drops:
Opponents in the coliseum are now dropping new items, exclusive to the monster type. Can you guess which creatures drop which item?


Coliseum Familiar Rebalancing:

• Several familiars were once available only as rare gathering drops, with very high vendor values because of just how unusual gathering one of them was; these same familiars were later introduced into the coliseum, where they are readily available and drop frequently. As part of the coliseum loot balance, their vendor values have been brought in-line to the value of the venues from which they originate. Non-gathered familiars in venues have received increases and decreases in value, applicable to the venue they call home.

Registration Window June 3rd
We are pleased to announce that Flight Rising will be opening a registration window for new users Tuesday, June 3rd starting at 5:00 server time and ending at 5:00 server time on June 4th. We are excited to welcome new players to our game! We will be monitoring site performance during the window and week following. If this window goes well we will be opening up additional windows shortly thereafter, with open registration as our final target.

As a reminder for our current players, individuals are limited to one account per person. Additional accounts are against our TOS and are problematic for the site. Registering a second account can result in the closure both accounts. Please be awesome, stick to one account, and have a great time! Doing so will ensure and a fair play experience for everyone. Our players make the community and game the amazing, creative space that it is.

Arcane, for the meme and fan interpretations that resulted. :D

As stated in the first post, this is being posted front page with the next update. :)

Restart is complete, we currently do not anticipate any further restarts.

---

Update: We will experience another restart at 07:50 server time.

---

Update: Restart completed. We anticipate another one and will update you with the time here and on social media. Thank you for your patience and understanding!

---

Good morning everyone! We will be experiencing a short downtime at 07:30 server time while the developers reboot the site.

We anticipate maybe one or two more restarts before the close of business today; they are working on improvements that can only happen in the live environment. We apologize for the inconvenience but it is necessary. Please watch this post for further updates.

@Schainukan, there is a known issue where if one or both trade partners has a full Lair the trade will not go through.

If this is not your issue, we ask that players post their bug reports to the Bugs forum. Thank you!

@Nika, as Undel said, this will all be in an upcoming announcement post. The information was posted in the forum as a means of letting players know what was going on, that it was intended and not a bug.

If you've enabled addons or extensions with your browser, please turn them off.

@Endro, your missing gems are due to additional purchases made. Please check your email for further information.

We will be experiencing another short restart, thank you for your patience and understanding!

Hello @Endro, we are unable to assist you on the forums; Contact Us is the only avenue for reimbursement requests. Thank you.

We go through existing ones based on difficulty. Not all barriers are fully banned but many are rejected due to difficulty, positioning on the screen, and playability.

We also do not allow "calling out" of players and listing puzzles someone feels should be removed is problematic at best.

Hello @PhantomLord! Undel has been rebalancing the Familiar auto-sell prices today in order to make things more stable and balanced going forward. This will be in a front page announcement but she started the thread so players are aware it is happening now.

Hello @Nidhoggr, Festival Sprites are only for the 2013-2014 set of Festivals, which resets every June.

Each new year will have a new theme for the Festival Familiars.

@nika,

I'm catching up from a holiday weekend, my plan is to get it all in today! :)

Thank you for your feedback!

@Sorikai - Coliseum familiar vendor value did all change at once. All familiar increase/decreases happened at the same time. :)

@Nequam - This change was to familiars only. At this time we have no current changes for battle stones. When the augment stones are fixed we'll likely be adding some new ones in though.

@ everyone All familiar prices are adjusted now; The table up top is no longer having things added to it.

@dorkit We will not be reverting the change, though in the future anything this large will have warnings provided. My apologies.

@Rhea There are too many items to do a drop percentage table, and we do want some of that stuff to be ambiguous like "This is a rare item" rather than "this is an item that drops 1/200 times.

@Raikdow Festival currency and chests do have a higher drop rate in higher venues. But time spent is also a consideration. :)

@Hrokr I battle probably less than a typical player on my play account. I spend an average of 2 hours a week, battling 10 minutes in each venue to make sure everything is werkin' I can't speak for the other admin.

Woodland path familiars are worth ~1650
Mire familiars are worth ~2800

Item drops have a difference in value too fwiw.

@Rhea @Grune

• Adding a new item is an independent chance for that item to drop.
  • Adding a new item does not lessen the chance for existing items to drop - you have a new chance in addition to the existing chances of existing items.
• We are adding a lot of new coliseum exclusives that drop 75% of the time (roughly)
  • When we add these new items in, we sometimes (but not always) lessen an existing non-exclusive drop. For example: When elk ears were introduced, the elk ears were added in at a 50% drop rate, and elk pelts were added in at a 50% drop rate, and at the same time, Arctic Scrub was reduced from a 40% drop rate to a 10% drop rate off elks. (as the main food elks drop is now the exclusive ears.)

Re: Drop rates:
Re: Augment Stones:
Re: Warning

We're not messing with the apparel ;-)

Yes, I will address this when I reprice them to their venues!

Sorry guys :-( But there's a lot of buffs happening simultaneously. I'm going through each an every coliseum familiar now. Rather than guessing (or sticking things from other areas, such as gathering straight into the coliseum) we're now using value tables that increase with coliseum venue. It's going to make a lot more sense going forward. :)

Copying over from Page 10:

Re: Drop rates:
Re: Augment Stones:
Re: Warning

This will be going up in the next update, but since the changes are happening now, I wanted to start a forum topic where I will document them as they happen. Edit: Sweep complete. All price increase and decreases to familiar vendor values have been applied and scale with venue.

@Chespin

First 5 listed are the chest skins. (they are dug up and dropped via coliseum) They also now have a chance to stop in the marketplace, though since they are available via other means, they stock at lower quantities in the marketplace.

Last 5 are the marketplace skins. (they stock in larger quantities in the marketplae.)

This month, all of dragonkind come together to celebrate the Greenskeeper Gathering. This festival commemorates the reclusive nature flight. Their most prized possessions, Bladed Flatleaves, can be found by using any gathering type in nature areas this week. Neutral and nature element monsters also have a chance to rarely yield these items as drops in the Coliseum.




The Festive Favors holiday stall is now open for the duration of the holiday and you may trade in Bladed Flatleaves for exclusive items. It will remain open until the holiday comes to a close on Sunday June 1st at 23:59 server time. (Greenskeeper Gathering has been extended one day due to an issue the first day that displayed the incorrect holiday banner and items.)



The Greenskeeper Gathering Skin Contest Results are in:
Congratulations to all of our winners! @AkaPanuka @Ankokou @Cereious @Daichym @Khroma @maggock @osiem @paintseagull @Snowwire @Studio

For the remaining duration of holiday, all 10 of these skins will be stocking in the Treasure Marketplace and five of them will very rarely gathered by Digging in the nature area or by battling in the coliseum.



There were so many amazing entries, we had to take note of several honorable mentions. A special thanks to @AccursedAsche @chimbu @Death @icealkaid @JetBlackSteel @KainEmil @Kowloon @Malusdraco @MrTeabiscuit @Piney @Raikdow @SapphistSpell @slothbug @SolarRush @TheCalicoTabby @Tiz @Torianu @VanderBurg @Xenianth @Yoruko

After the Starfall shenanigans of this morning, the greenskeeper news post and skin results are nearly ready. They will be up shortly. However, in the meantime you may still dig in nature and turn up chests - unopenable chests. They will transform into chests that contain a skin inside as the update goes live. This ensures that everyone will still have a full 7 days to turn up a chest, as we are extending the festival by 1 day.

This should be fixed now, please let me know as soon as possible. Thank you!

Locking this as the issue is now fixed. Thank you for your reports!
