February Monthly MiniPets
Posted by Admin-Mat on 1 Feb 2017, 2:30 am
February has come, and with it, the introduction of a new round of mini-pets for the FurDollar Emporium. These new monthly mini-pets follow a new system with the goal of retaining their value!
We have heard the concerns of customers who purchased FD mini-pets in the past and their disappointment that breeding has resulted in their purchase losing its value increasingly over time. We want our customers to feel confident that their purchase will retain its value, even potentially increasing in value. Therefore, we have decided that starting with the February mini-pets, FurDollar Emporium mini-pets will be unbreedable species, ensuring that the investment a customer makes will not decline in value due to breeding. Any past mini-pets released through the Emporium will remain as they were, as this change affects only new and future Emporium mini-pets.
Players can now obtain rarer colors for an Emporium mini-pet species by opening a box, found for each new mini-pet species in the Emporium. The boxes for each respective mini-pet have a 40% chance of opening into a common, 30% chance of opening into an uncommon, 20% chance of opening into a rare, or a 10% chance of opening into a super rare. Boxes are also priced at 250 FurDollars, a reduction from past prices.
The Aquaticat species is the first of the new Emporium mini-pets, shown from common through super rare. 
The Rapti species is the second of the new Emporium mini-pets, shown from common through super rare.
The Moth species is the third of the new Emporium mini-pets, shown from common through super rare.
The Chipmunk species is the fourth of the new Emporium mini-pets, shown from common through super rare.
The Caterpillar species is the fifth and final of the new Emporium mini-pets, shown from common through super rare.
These new boxes will not entirely disappear at the end of the month. We plan on putting all Emporium mini-pet boxes inside of a larger box called the Retired Box, which will dispense one random box from a past month. The Retired Box will be available at a higher price, but gives players the chance to obtain mini-pet boxes from past months if desired.
Save up your weapons, armor, and unwanted mini-pets, because the Serpent Festival is coming to town on February 14th. The Serpent Festival is Quetzal Palace's yearly special event. During this event, the serpent that carries the Quetzal Palace village on its back will land on the mainland of Furvilla. During this period of time, villagers from all over are welcome to make offerings to the serpent in hopes of being rewarded with something cool.
The upcoming festival will involve some new mini-pet species from the serpent, a special shop to purchase festival related items, new villager colors, new villager costumes, and last but not least... a mystery! Will you be one of the first one hundred people to solve the mystery and earn a trophy from the festival?
But that's not all! We have two weeks before the festival starts, and some other cool activities are coming down the pipeline. Sources say that Crafters will be getting a new type of item to craft, one that should keep all of you crafters busy! What could it be? Hm... we'll find out soon! ;)
Collections are meant to be hard to collect because that's what gives them vaule!
I love mystery boxes! They are so fun <3 I will agree that breeding is fun but the way I see this is that it really does give the FD pets value and ones you can collect from the villages are breedable. You can't really fix the economy when it's the user base making everything so cheap. With the breeding limits you can still over breed them.
i'm really not a fan of this update... all you've done is just making it even costlier and harder to collect minipets at the same rate they're coming out at??? i was totally ok knowing that my common coloured fd emporium minipets would eventually lose their value after /months/ had passed and they got bred more, that's the only reason i wasn't OVERWHELMED by the fact that there's new ones being cycled in and out every month. :-\
I actually really appreciate the FD emporium minipet update.... before I didnt want to purchase the FD minipets because theyd just decrease in value, but now Im more confident about them being valuable.
Wait you cant give minipets to the serpent?
cool so can the new crafting recipe be unlimited stock please i have not seen a single recipe since you added the limited stock for literally no reason other than to give snipers a reason to live
This is quite an embarrassing "solution" to the AH problem. I am shocked this idea was able to get through.
Ok, so now we have to spend at LEAST $40 a month to complete our menagerie? ($80 if we want to really complete the menagerie) The pet collecting is the only reason I'm on this site. What's the point in staying now? I've already spent a ton of money in beta :/ Please reconsider and make the FD Emporium pets breedable. The breeding charges were FINE, you didn't even give that a chance to see how it turned out.
Just get rid of Animal Husbandry altogether if you're gonna make pets unbreedable. I don't know who added the menagerie or why, it was a nice concept, but now it's just a tainted reminder of the impossible. But that's just my two cents, I think the pets themselves look nice and I'm looking forward to the new costumes and crafting recipe~
lol what a load of nope :)
This is not the way to fix this but I am done attempting to reason with this now deaf management.
