March Monthlies
Posted by Mat on 1 Mar 2017, 9:48 pm
March is here in full swing, and we have plenty of awesome things planned here at Furvilla!
The FurDollar Emporium is featuring its newest stock of pets!
The Firecat, in all its blazing glory!
A Wyvern, for all the scalie fans!
A Squirrel, for those who were expecting more from the chipmunks last month!
A Frog, for fans of amphibians!
The Sneep, a cute furry snake!
We're experimenting with the monthly mini-pets again and have decided to try out a new method this month: these mini-pets have a 5 day breeding cool-down. They will be able to breed until April 1, 2017, at which point they will become unbreedable. We hope this is good news for those of you who enjoyed breeding them before, and also allows them to keep a solid value!
The Retired Box has popped into the FurDollar Emporium as well. It contains a random box from past months (which would be February, for now).
Clink-clank! What's that noise? It's the new Mechanical Mini-Pets! Well, if you can't get a real pet to love you, why not program one instead?
Crafters have a new set of blueprints available to them - mechanical mini-pets. These blueprints drop from Warrior battles as potential loot that you can find. Each village has its own animal, but you can trade blueprints to other villages if you want to get them all!
To make mechanical pets, you'll need to get two types of items - mechanical pieces and mechanical organs. Pictured above are the mechanical pieces. Each village has its own mechanical piece to be found when exploring. Collect as many as you want, and then start trading the extras to other villages, so you can have enough pieces to create your new mecha pal!
Pets don't last long without hearts and brains, and mechanical pets are no different. Grab the blueprints to build a mechanical organ from the Quest Shop, also used by the Crafter, and get building!
Mechanical organs require Steel and Oil Cans to build. You can find Oil Cans available in the Quest Shop as well.
Got all your pieces? Now it's time to build your own lovable pet! When you complete a crafting recipe to make a mini-pet, it will randomize which color mini-pet you get. Can you collect them all?
Mechanical Wolves are native to Dragonsmaw Manor!
Mechanical Seals are native to Tigereye Peak!
Mechanical Fish are native to Oceandome!
Mechanical Dragons are native to Olde Foxbury!
Mechanical Birds are native to Quetzal Palace!
Who said engineering couldn't be fun, huh?
See you next time!
OH FUN TIMES!! Yay! :D
the sneeps are very cute. :>
Mechanical pets yaaaas. Cool to see such a creative way to get a pet. And I love the fd pets this month, those lil froggos are just too cute
yay quest shop love ;w;
And the new fd pets have the initial grab bag chance and then are breedable? I suppose that's a neat solution, because just breeding or just grab bags aren't really perfect, but mixing the two might work out. Breeding gets a little tricking with the 5o a day likit, by the end users might have to just pick and breed one of the animals, you could never hope to breed them all. I'm interested in seeing how it works out though!
Yessss the mech birds are quetzal palace! Also the Sneep are so adorable.
Thank you for trying to change up the FD pets again this month. I was tryharding my way through last month, trying to make as much FD as I could, and I was still only able to afford a handful of pets. No SRs either, of course. :( At least this will help a little bit.
Looks like I'm forced to finally get a crafter! Loving the mechanical pets.
Nice to have some more stuff in the quest shop. i should work on that more, i'm only lv.2 :'D
Some more food for thought...
Breeders will have a tough dilemma when a festival with limited breeding is introduced alongside a month's FD pets with their limited breeding. This is assuming that this breeding trait continues for FD pets. Then you either miss out on breeding one or the other group. You could mix it up, but decrease your chances for both. That sounds crappy.
2 questions.
- Since we only have a month to breed them with 5 days between, do they have better odds when breeding?
-Are the mechanical pets here to stay permanently?
I 100% support the new breeding thing! Good choice guys!! Also, MECHANICAL DRAGONS. YES.
