Autumn has returned to Sornieth and dragons everywhere are reaping the benefits of a bountiful harvest season! Drakeharvest runs from September 5-9, and brings with it a bounty of rewards!

---

Drakeharvest
Drakeharvest, Flight Rising's plant-themed "micro-holiday", is in full swing! From Thursday, September 5th (06:00 Server Time) to Monday, September 9th (06:00 Server Time), all players will experience a couple of battle-related boosts!



Bountiful Battles
For the duration of Drakeharvest, all enemies will have a chance to drop
Heavy Grainbasket or Horn of Plenty in addition to their regular loot. Other site activities such as gathering, breeding, bonding, brewing, and visiting some of the trading post dragons will also yield a chance at the harvest! Dragon clans everywhere are taking this time to stock up on fruits, veggies, fungi, seeds, flowers, and grains to prepare for the cold winter months.



Battle EXP Boost
During the event, all battles will yield 50% additional EXP, so now is a perfect time for dragons to train. Grab your newest team and head out into battle!


Plant-Pinching Pests
The prosperous harvest season doesn't come without its drawbacks. A pilfering species of crab and waxwings have taken to the fields and foodstores in droves to make off with as much as they can carry! For the duration of Drakeharvest, Harvest Hardshell and Plantation Pincher familiars will drop fairly commonly in the Coliseum. Once the harvest has concluded, they'll go back into hiding, but may run into one or two while foraging. Harvest Waxwing and Waxwing Cultivator will also drop from the Coliseum and rarely from all type of gathering activities.

A vista and scene have a chance to drop in the coliseum and many other site-related activities.

Okay, having read through the thread—and we appreciate the general enthusiasm!—we're going to go ahead and lock this thread now. This thread has been bumped several times in violation of our Spam policy and it needs a masked profanity clean up. The profanity filter exists for a reason. Hitting it won't lead to penalties (all asterisks and not directed AT someone), but circumventing it does.

A gentle reminder that Roundsey is RNG based and there is no guarantee of winning the specific prize desired. Whoever wins the triple pumpkin dragon tomorrow may decide to keep the dragon, and we hope that decision is respected if they choose to do so. Thank you.

Thank you for the report. This has been corrected.

@gn0me, this is fixed! Our apologies for our delay in resolving this! Players can now trade for Tertiary Aether Gene: Porcupine at Glass & Gloss!

@ThistleProse, thank you for the well intended wishes

That being said, we have rules about even well intended call-outs, as they can go the other direction, etc. Reading through this thread, I think it's fair to say this is more of a "things you appreciate about Flight Rising" vibe and that's okay to discuss in our forums. For that reason, I gave your thread title an edit. Please edit your opening post or OP to reflect the topic adjustment. Thank you!

Thanks for letting me know! This has been corrected, but it might take a little bit for the site's internal tooltip cache to catch up!

Warrior's Way is a battle-themed event calling for warriors, smiths, armorers, and other ferocious creatures to prove their metal and their mettle!

Welcome to Warrior's Way!
Come one, come all to Warrior's Way! This new annual event will take place every August for only the fiercest and most skilled competitors! Warrior's Way will run from 06:00 server time on August 7th to 06:00 server time on August 17th this year. Please read the pamphlet above for more information on this fantastic event!

A Lore Note From Willow, Warrior’s Way Coordinator:
We at Warrior’s Way are thrilled to announce amenities funding from the merchants of The Grand Exchange! We’d especially like to thank Arvelle for her generous donation towards our food budget. She is rather keen on acquiring the discarded trash from this years event, so do be sure to stop by and provide her with whatever you are able to collect. She even hands out trophies for your efforts, and we applaud her enthusiasm with keeping the battlefield free of debris.

Finally, we regret to announce that the first Warrior’s Way champion will not be joining us this year…or any year after.

(On a related note: The duties and responsibilities of the Champion do not—I REPEAT, DO NOT—include confronting Luminax, of all the blasted Spiral-brained egotistical—ahem. The Champion is not called upon to actually champion in actual combat. We thank you for your understanding and for your cooperation in this matter.)

How to Participate
During Warrior's Way, broken equipment may be found across the site by participating in daily actives. All enemies in the coliseum have a chance at dropping broken equipment currrencies, but themed Warrior's Way enemies will have a higher chance of doing so!

Thanks for the report @CalamGlitToes and all.

We've confirmed an error with the CR dragon query, which caused it to run slow AND exclude more dragons than it should.

A fix is now live which should solve both issues.

Hello @Skyfox725! As your title was mostly caps (aka, shouting via text), I've gone ahead and edited it under our Forum Etiquette. Thank you!

@clockworkMoose Thank you for the report. Dragons that are currently part of a Crossroads trade are now ignored as well.

This thread is now closed for consistency issues. If you run into technical issues with the Fathom breed release slate of genes, please report them to the Backlog - Modern Gene Errors thread.

Post-Thread Issues

The following corrections went in today:

• Primary: Fade - All Fathom - The snout gradients were adjusted to better match moderns. Note that the lower jaw is considered part of the belly and is treated like the Obelisk.
• Primary: Flaunt - Fathom M - The abrupt gradient transition in the belly was corrected.
• Primary: Jaguar - Fathom H - The backs of the ears were patterned to match the adults and modern versions of the gene.
• Primary: Skink- All Fathom - The highlight color across the eye was carried across the entire eye band.
• Secondary: Blend - Fathom F, M - The gradient near the wing "wrist" was intensified.
• Secondary: Eel - Fathom M - A missing band of color in the chin fin was added in.
  Secondary: Eye Spots - All Fathom - The pattern has been added to the chin and tail fins.
• Secondary: Morph - All Fathom - The gradient accent color was made stronger to better match the other modern breeds.
• Secondary: Paint - Fathom F - The Piebald markings on the chin and arm fins were given more variance in Piebald coverage.
• Secondary: Paisley - Fathom H - The arm fins of the hatchling received pattern like the adults had.
• Tertiary: Crackle - All Fathom - The crackle markings had bleed corrected, and internal ear markings added in.
• Tertiary: Okapi - All Fathom - The Okapi markings on the tail were reduced to only cover the ending half of the tail rather than going up to the base.
• Tertiary: Peacock - Fathom F - The Eye Spots on the wings were reduced in size and increased in quantity.
• Tertiary: Polkadot - All Fathom - The polkadot markings were applied across all the arm and chin fins.
• Tertiary: Runes - All Fathom - The runes pattern was added to the base of the neck.

Thank you. This should be corrected, though it might take a little while for the site’s internal tooltip cache to catch up.

@Ravenbrained, @Hippotang, 100% appreciate your reaching out to help your fellow player, but this issue is not a bug.

So what I'm hearing is ...we need more chickens

Hi there, @Ideamutt! I apologize, I think there's some confusion happening. We've checked the logs and confirmed that it was not your account that hatched the three linked dragons. They were hatched by another player and then sent to you shortly after hatching. That would be why you don't have the achievements.

@Ideamutt Thank you for providing the dragon IDs, it helps greatly!

This achievement is awarded when you hatch a dragon with the given genes. Unlike the breed-based achievements, it is not triggered by merely "acquiring" (CR/AH/Egg/Nest) a dragon with the specified attributes.

Since a different player hatched these dragons, they are the one who unlocked this achievement.

@Ideamutt By any chance were the dragons that hatched Dusthides? These achievements are exclusively for the modern version of these genes.

Thank you for the report @dilsdragons

You can now navigate through ALL the pages in that tab.

We're working on a separate issue with the pagination jump button (the [...] button), and how the pagination is displayed when you are on one of the hidden pages. But those issues will require more time to iron out fully.

Hi @Christovski! The engineers are working on fixing this, thank you!

The Acclaimed Achievements Association is pleased to recognize additional achievements performed by your clan!

Gene Achievements
Today the Acclaimed Achievements Association has gone through its records and has found many new achievements that dragonkind has performed! There are now 122 new gene achievements for hatching dragons with modern genes.

The Achievements Association has meticulous records, so dragons who have performed these feats since the launch of the achievements system in June of 2023 should retroactively be granted recognition of these tasks!

New Primary Gene Achievements:


New Secondary Gene Achievements:
New Tertiary Gene Achievements:

---

Boneyard Recognition
A new achievement for battling in The Boneyard has been added. Yard Work

---

A Flock of Achievement
The Acclaimed Achievements Association has new items to recognize those dragon clans who have accomplished great things! -Or, perhaps Avery simply wanted to remove the poultry from the premises?

More chickens are now available at the Acclaimed Achievements Association! You can earn Achievements tokens by completing Achievements or Pursuits!

The following fixes went in recently:

• Secondary Saturn - All Fathom - The darker gradient coverage was adjusted.
• Secondary Spinner - Fathom F - Stray pattern was cleaned up near the table and the front wing gradient was adjusted.
• Tertiary: Ghost - All Fathom - Fathom should had the nostril markings removed, as they have no nostrils. Fathom H pose had the gradient intensity on the head reduced.
• Tertiary: Firefly - All Fathom - The glow around the fireflies was intensified.
• Tertiary: Koi - Fathom H - The scale highlights were made larger.
• Tertiary: Stained - Fathom F - Color bleed near the lower jaw of the F pose was corrected.

Note: Hatchling Koi was briefly uploaded with firefly's artwork. This has since been corrected.

Thank you for the report @clockworkMoose !

The link should now be fixed.
