I don't know why I didn't think of this on my own BUT.

You may be able to farm chests faster if you a) go to Scorched Forest where it's easy pickin's, then b) refresh your browser every time you get a batch of mobs that doesn't contain mimics. It makes the fights a little slower because you can't build up the breath to eliminate but it's way the hell faster than chewing through batches of basically-unwanted mobs. (this would also work in woodland path, Jelani...)

That is a very good suggestion haha. Only thing stopping me from doing that though is that I need to gather food from the Coli, since I'm spending all my turns in digging for the next two weeks I'm not gunna be gathering any food for my dragons right now. >___> Sorry guys but Nocturnes are important lol.

I had this very discussion with my scaley buddies! They will have to share what I gather during the great farm xD

Actually that seems like a good idea. My highest dragon is only level 9 so I've only been in the woodland path. I strongly dislike most of the mobs there. >.> Too bad I don't have a level 25 dragon. XD

I was fighting 2 mimics when it crashed *sigh*

I was organising my lair when suddenly CRASH. This is gunna be a thing for the next two weeks, isn't it?

[TygerDarkstorm]

More than likely with the amount of people having new incentive to farm.

This isn't a rant, but I felt the need to post here since you guys helped me calm down when I got all sorts of stressed out.
Before I had posted here with my freakout, I had opened a ticket because the mod on the forums had told me too (which added to my panic, honestly.)

Today I just woke up and got this from the FR team:

Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry; sharing a computer with another player is not a violation of any of our rules and is not reason enough to be investigated or sanctioned. As long as each individual player is only logging into and playing their own account and as long as items, currency, or dragons are not being funneled in the direction of one account then everything should be fine.

*Hugs everyone* You guys were right. There was no need for me to get so worked up. We did nothing wrong and the FR team can see that. Thank you guys again for talking some sense into me while I was going out of my head in fear.

I JUST BOUGHT

TWO ADULT DRAGONS
FOR 3K
...AND THEY HAD 0 ENERGY


Now I lost my extra gather turn bonus.
I AM SO MAD

I fed my dragons really fast to see if I could save it. But no. They're gone now.
I am so mad this is the worst possible time for me to lose my bonus. Now I'm screwed in my hunt for a scroll. I almost want to cry.


WHY WOULD YOU PUT YOUR DRAGONS WITH 0 ENERGY ON THE AH WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!

Nooooo :'( This happened to me last week! I wonder if its the same person doing it on purpose to spite others - they were only selling those with zero energy real cheap - well fed dragons weren't for sale? Sucks so bad

I think so. It's such awkward timing that it couldn't be anything else. Either an attempt to be mean or to keep scrolls and eggs even more rare by knocking down how many turns someone can gather. This is the second time this has happened to me in my FR life and it's terrible.

There needs to be a lock on the AH for how hungry a dragon can be. Dragons under 70% energy should not be able to be posted for auction. This is dumb.

[Nick]

I haaaaate when ppl do that >:( I've only run into it a few times w/ old dragons I wanted to buy but thankfully I checked their dragon pages beforehand, ugh

[Bowno]

So according to a few people on the forums. I'm the only one in the whole world that would pounce on an adult dragon in the AH for 3k without checking its page first to make sure its not starving so that I dont miss out on grabbing it first.
Interesting.

[TygerDarkstorm]

People will be assholes, but I dunno, even for hatchlings there's a lot of times where I open that dragon up in a separate tab before I buy. I dunno why; double check colors or something? A lot of times it's because I'm looking at multiple dragons either for a mate or idea I have so I guess I've just gotten into the habit of looking at the dragon page before buying. But not all the time.

3k is really low for a dragon, especially an adult, however, I don't think that you need to be treated like you're stupid for pouncing on it. You're not; and I'm pretty darn sure you're not the only person to have had that happen. People will be jerks and that's a sad thing.

Honestly, if dragons can't breed on low energy (amongst other activities they won't do, if any) then they shouldn't be allowed to be posted on the AH that way either. Putting such a thing in place doesn't harm anybody. Some brat found a loophole to make other people lose their extra gathering turns (intentional at first or not) and it's something that really should be stopped. You shouldn't *have* to open the dragon's page just to see if you're getting ripped off or not. For a staff that seems so anti-trolling I would think they would jump on this and find a way to stop it but you never know.

[Syleye]

Yeah Bowno people will be jerks, but really the only one being an asshole is someone who seems to only communicate by being an asshole, pay them no mind someone apparently pisses in their cheerios on a regular basis

[Jurz]

Oh wow, I feel like I got attacked when I was just pointing something out. Yeah, Tarn is nice to most people, and so are other people. I never said she couldn't want more/didn't deserve to have more. I just said she has been lucky and that this event isn't really favoring those who have more time, as I've seen some people get scrolls and barely play and some play all day and still get nothing. I honestly don't give a flying hoot if I don't get a scroll. It would be nice, but I've detached myself from this game. Maybe I'm upset cuz I'm hormonal right now and feel like I'm wasting my time on this game

Everyone in this community usually thinks about others before themselves. Syleye is one of the nicest people I know on here. Tyger does awesome things for the community. Nef sells her practically perfect dragons at affordable prices. Tarn is also extremely giving (from what I see and hear) but so are a lot of other people. Hell, I gave Lupis, Tarn, Syleye, and some others a crap ton of retired apparel/familiars or millions of gold/thousands of gems before I left. Tarn can be an angel, but so can most of the community in my opinion and I feel like the nice things other people do isn't as glorified as much as the nice things Tarn does. Maybe I'm cranky cuz I feel like people are jumping up and down even though I didn't even mean to come across as mean and I don't think anyone else did either

Edit: Ignore the above, I feel like it would start something even though I'm just trying to get something off my chest

Tarn, I'm really not intending to be mean to you. You are extremely nice and giving. Keep it up, and I hope you find more scrolls. Maybe I just don't belong in this part of the community anymore :/

[Novikova]

It's easy to feel that way. I sort of think I should kinda drain my FR account and move on. I dunno.

The RNG hates me, I'm pretty much alone, blah blah. Eh. If anyone wants some stuff, lemme know.

[Bowno]

I agree that Tarn deserves the scrolls. She's been so nice to everyone on here and has gone out of her way to help others.
Though I do also understand the other side. I think we all can tell that this festival has made everyone (including me) a bit on edge. We all want the same thing and they're rare to get. So seeing someone else get that thing does ruffle some feathers. Not going to lie, every time I see some one get a scroll I bristle a little.. Even thouhg I know I shouldn't! Human nature I guess. We're greedy creatures.

I'm sorry you felt attacked. No one should feel that way. I don't think any one meant to hurt your feelings or anything. Like I said, we're all just kinda highstrung right now with these pretty dragons flying around our heads.
