I think I am done with FR for a time ... or at least, done with breeding.

I can't stand to see another group of my babies sell in the AH only be exalted without names. Is it really that hard people!? If I sell too high ... nobody buys them; If I sell too low, they instantly become exalt fodder. I can't control what players choose to do with their dragons once they purchase them but the least they could do is give them names for f**k sakes!

I guess it's stupid to take something like this too much too heart. I'm beginning to hate people in general again and that just isn't me. I need a break and maybe a bottle of wine ... yeah, wine sounds real good right about now! Time to visit my local BevMo.

Ice and fire had an intense battle this past week, to the point where the board was flipping all the way to the final seconds before maintenance. Hatchling prices rose to 13k or 14k .. somewhere around there. I know it sucks when you have unnamed hatchlings exalted but you can't really expect people to take the time to name them when they're in a rush either. ^^; It takes only a second to name one hatchling ... but it adds up when you're doing that with one hundred. Especially if you're on a slow computer or dealing with lag.

I know you've probably heard it before but it really is best to just name before you sell, like I've resorted to doing. Most people don't mind paying the small fee for a renaming scroll if they don't like the name, and this way if it's bought in a heated dominance battle the buyer won't have to worry about naming.

That's some sound advice Lupen and I'll take that under consideration. Thank you.

*drops face onto desk* Fuuckkkkkk

They just added a new NotN update with some Swipp trades that'll give you Strange Chests in return. The materials for the trades though are mostly the junk items from the event that I sold earlier today to clear some space in my hoard and make some extra treasure since they weren't used for anything. T_T I had so many of them too after coliseum grinding. Goddamnit.

*Joins you in misery.*
I bought a bunch of stuff and made myself thoroughly broke, so I sold not just the NotN junk but pretty much everything that wasn't a Swipp or Baldwin ingredient. Siiiigh I wish they'd added these things at the start with the rest of it.

Rest in peace mum. I really did love and miss you, even if I never got to see you.

Realizing how much I wasted on this garbage dragon is really, really making me hate myself a lot.

Image

Ugh.

ALL That money on scatter scrolls.

What a waste.

I hate myself and this dragon. I want to exalt him. I hate him

..I take complete responsibility of course but that doesn't help how I feel about it

Thanks guys. ;; It's just discouraging me when I think of all the things I could have done with the gems/treasure instead of all those scrolls. Oh well, lesson learned I guess! I might gene him up. I like those examples a lot Tarn. <3

I agree, Peri, he's too beautiful to exalt, and he would look absolutely amazing with poison and butterfly. :)

Personal rant: *twitch* Market, please, stock some freaking brown birdskull apparel and not every other color under the sun. I need to finish gathering Hoodoo's apparel before she grows up in a few days. Nevermind!

I haven't had a lot of luck with chests! The only ones I have gotten had last years. The only other ones I got were a marionette. The rest I have were traded for. I crafted an agol. I would like to get all the new NoTN familiars

I know I'm not around here much (rough work schedule since Sept) but I am going to grouse to anyone who'll listen damnit! :evil: Four days in and I can already tell how this years NotN is going to go for me. I feel I've been somewhat lucky in that I have gotten an ok amount of chests. However when I open them is when I feel my ire skyrocketing. 75% of the time it's been THE SAME F-ING BEAR!! A bear I got last year!!! The same Polarfreeze Defender every time!!!!
But you know what? I am starting to find some sort of weirdo sadistic glee that I am going to shove that bear into a cauldron and turn it into muck!!!
YAH HEAR THAT BEAR!!!! MUCK!! :evil:
Gaw damn I hate that bear.

But yeah. NotN. Not being nice to me again. I just do not have the RNG luck some other of my FR friends are having. But I shall persevere. At least my 6 digit girl is almost level 23 cause of this. I guess getting dragons leveled is one good thing.

Ugh, I wish there was some sort of tool - on FR or on a different website - that would let me see what apparel looks like on my dragons, layered with apparel they're already wearing. We can do it with skins and accents, why not apparel?
