Questing Tweaks and Upcoming Downtime

New Items to Help You Quest!
I hope you've all been having fun discovering some of the newest items in Furvilla!
The above can be found through unique village explore events and battlegrounds! All Clawtooth themed loot can be found in all villages, Wandering Monsters, Deadly Monsters and the Abyss.
"But Aspen", you ask. "What are they for?"
Now, the questing system is a bit tedious, and admittedly in need of a revamp. However, with so many pressing projects on our plate, we've decided to make things a tiny bit easier for now on those who would like to collect shards.
All furniture, costumes, and costume parts have been removed from the quest pool. Instead, the above items will now be requested in addition to other site items. Their drop rates are high, and ultimately it should be much easier to trade, buy, or find these items to use for questing as more and more people discover them. Help each other!
You will still need to work together to craft weapons, brew medicine, and find other items around Furvilla to satisfy quest requirements, but I hope this change will help you progress to your goals. We've also added some splendid new vistas to the shop, and more content will be added regularly as well!
"ASPEN," you scream. "But what will I do with all the furniture I have just laying around?"
Well, rest assured that the current house feature isn't going away, but I did happen to hear that a certain Serpent might be looking for some nice home goods in addition to his usual demands of weapons and pets.
This Serpent... right here...
So if you happen to have a few nightstands or pink couches laying around collecting dust, do not fret. The Serpent's house is large, your tribute is much awaited.
Upcoming Downtime and Site Maintenance
Furvilla will be going down for some very important site maintenance on Wednesday, December 12th (exact time will be announced in advance). We do not have an estimate of how long the downtime will last.
We will be making some vital changes behind the scenes. These changes are necessary to ensure the future of the site and help our community to grow. Once this task is accomplished, we can begin allowing larger inventories, new features, support more players, and begin more visible work on other aspects of the site.
This downtime should not interfere with the Tiger Eye Peak festival, which will be held later this month. Also, this Friday is Furvilla's 2nd anniversary! Please plan to join us for some special festivities! More on that next time...
Until then,
- Aspen -
just checking, is the maintenance going to mess with the daily login streaks?
can you remove keepsakes/outfits from the item pool? it just seems....off? for quests to ask for those
any way to remove crafted weapons? Basic ones work but its harder to get or make crafted ones ^^'
answrs while the fest is still a ways away, so I don't have 100% specific details, I would say this is more of a way for people who were already trying to help questers in their stalls, so they wouldn't be left holding the bag with leftover furniture. Also...
TavixTheDragon The purpose of the Serpent asking for furniture so is to not punish those who may have been trying to help other questers. It likely would not be worth it to buy/hoard furniture now (but if people really want to sink some FC in that, I won't complain...) We've made pricing changes to the furniture shops, and will likely be changing the restock rates in addition. The Serpent will only be asking for furniture this year as well.
cool
YAY!!!
I was expecting to put that journal as keepsake, but this cool too xD
will the furniture give a separate pool of items than the pets or weapons, ie do we need to hoard yet another item type for the festival? or if the same pool, will the ratio of item to reward make it beneficial for us to stock up on said items?
I'm looking forward to trying this out! What's going to happen to housing items in the NPC shops though? Wouldn't it be a bit broken to allow people to easily buy items to give to the Serpent?
I was wondering what these items were for, a great change imo!
