Glædelig Jul! the divine from the upcoming christmas promo.
Would like to be able to get it before the 25th since it gives it's owner 200 passes on Dec. 25th as I noticed all of the specialty divines in the Christmas group of divines do. I have not played long enough that I don't have any of them and boy am I wishing I had at least Feliz Navidad

The Great Challenge and Lottery


The Great Challenge is back, and this time it will be followed by the Lottery.

� How to play

As usual, this contest takes place in two parts:

� The Great Challenge phase: Collect horseshoes by completing in-game objectives.

� Festivities (Lottery): Collect and buy lottery tickets, participate in the draws, and win Clovers that you can exchange in the dedicated shop to get gifts.

� The Great Challenge


Every day, you will have the choice between 9 different objectives you can complete over and over during the day. Complete them to get horseshoes and unlock gifts and bonuses (game items, a special offer, fragments, green tickets for Lottery, etc.).

You can collect up to 100 horseshoes a day, or even 120 if you have bought the Premium Key.


NEW: The Golden Horseshoes have been removed. You now need to finish the tutorial to enter the end-of-contest Lottery for the divine horse.

� Premium Key

Buy the Premium Key with passes to access additional marvelous rewards:

� Extra gifts

� Fragments of the new divine horse Jenny (with new markings)

� A bonus that enables you to get one golden lottery ticket for each draw

� Another Jackpot during the Great Challenge phase


Besides, the Premium Key allows you to collect up to 120 horseshoes every day. Thanks to that, you can:

✅ Make up for lost time if you missed a day!
✅ Get gifts and jackpots sooner!

You can buy your Premium Key whenever you want during the Challenge phase.

The gifts unlocked during the Great Challenge part but not claimed are given automatically when the Festivities start at the end of the phase.

� Jackpots


Finish the Free gift gauge to win the special item: Eros egg.

Thanks to this item, you get an extra covering for your divine horse.

It applies to Falabellas, Falacorns, Zebras, and Jennies. Only when the covering limit is reached.

Complete the event with the Premium key to win a special horse: Zebra, one of the Zonkeymily horses (with new markings).


Throughout the contest, you can find fragments of the divine horse Jenny (with new markings) in � Tyche's Crowns.



There are no divine fragments in the daily objectives during this event, as players already have to complete objectives for the Great Challenge (the fragments will be back in the objectives for the next event).


� Festivities: Lottery


During the Festivities, you can participate in lottery draws. Every day, there will be between 1 and 4 draws. The number depends on the community's progression during the Challenge phase.

To participate in the draws, you need lottery tickets, which you can obtain by:

purchasing them with Equus

putting back in play the wins of the previous draw

catching them in UFO's

being helped by your friends

winning competitions with your horses (2 per draw)

participating in the Great Challenge (the free part)

unlocking the Great Challenge bonus with the Premium Key


⚠ It is no longer possible to get tickets when buying Black Market items.

You can take these actions for every draw. After each draw in which you have participated, you will be notified of your potential gifts.

As a result, you can then decide what you want to do with them. You can:

✅ receive them

� exchange your gifts for new tickets for the next draw

⚠ Please be aware that you cannot participate in the next draw until your choice concerning pending gifts is made.

⚠ At the end of the contest, if you haven't chosen what to do with your last gifts, you will automatically receive the gifts.

� Lottery gifts

The gifts can be:

� NEW: Jenny (1 per draw among gold tickets), Zebra (3 per draw among blue tickets), Eros Egg (5 per draw among green tickets)

Changelog -
New Trophies and Collections


The changelog will still be in French when the preprod starts, the translation should arrive by the end of the week.

The trophy and collections system is entirely reworked.

It was unfair to players and unlike many other games, trophies could be won and then lost if you did not have the required horses anymore. We wanted to change this system by reworking the trophy system, making it more rewarding, and adding a collections system.

� Trophies

You will now obtain trophies by completing specific objectives. Obtained trophies remain forever.

There are 4 rarities for the trophies:

Bronze

Silver

Gold

Diamond


Each trophy gained will grant some points that fill a reward gauge. When the gauge is filled the player obtains a gift and the gauge is reset.

The gifts can be precious black market items (such as Horn of Plenty, Philosopher's Stone…), but also divine horses (Tarman, Kaktos, even a Xanthos), depending on the progression.

On the new Trophy page, players have access to the following information:
• Number of trophies by rarity
• Last trophies obtained
• Next trophies
• Progression of the reward gauge
• Number of points granted by each rarity of trophies
• List of all trophies available
• Listed by categories (customization, breeding, community…)

What happens to previous trophies?

Most trophies have been transferred to the new system, for example, Competition, Seniority, or Equestrian Center. You can validate them now to get all the related gifts!

Some trophies have been moved to the Collections page (horse breeds, special horses, etc.). You'll find more details below.

The Customization trophies have been reset, and you will have to start from zero. You will have to add the item (golden apple, companion, etc...) to a horse again. Items already applied do not count for the customized horses you already own, and those trophies have not been transferred.

New Trophies

New trophies have been added to the existing ones, mainly in the Divine Category where you have to play with them (not only own them).
• Zonkey
• Musketeers
• Metals
• Grail
• Dragons
• Fairy Tales

We will also progressively introduce trophies related to the events.

So far there are:
• Great Challenge: Collect horseshoes
• Lottery: Collect clovers

⭐ Collections

The old collection page was reworked and revamped as well. The system now tracks all elements that can be collected in the game.

• Horse breeds
• Horse's basic coats
• Vintage coats
• Special coats
• Companions
• Special horses
• Backgrounds from Ow's Helios Ray
• Cards of cards events


You will be able to easily see which elements you have already collected and which are missing.

• From missing elements, you can access the direct horses' sales or the product page of this element
• From obtained elements, you can access your breeding farm (the first horse with this element is displayed)


You can see your progression:
• Globally
• By Categories
• By Subcategories


The old collections displayed on the "My other collections" page will not be displayed anymore.

Unlike for Trophies, you will lose your progress in a collection if you don't own a needed horse anymore.

✨ Golden Horseshoes and the Lottery

The Golden horseshoes have been removed from the game and replaced with trophies related to the events.

Now, the condition to enter the end-of-contest Lottery is to have the tutorial finished.

The Customization trophies have been reset, and you will have to start from zero. You will have to add the item (golden apple, companion, etc...) to a horse again. Items already applied do not count for the customized horses you already own, and those trophies have not been transferred.

This really bothers me, especially because I have been working for YEARS to finish some of these trophies and a ton of customization items are so incredibly rare. At least everyone has to start at zero but this just feels like a big slap in the face for so many collectors on here, especially players who’ve been on here for almost a decade or more. Otherwise I am curious to see how these changes turn out!

These changes feel like they will mainly reward the new players who are willing to drop hundreds of dollars on the game - since you'll need to purchase the customization items in order to be able to place them on horses to count, and if your account is young, you won't have many BMIs in your inventory.
It won't matter if you've been playing the game for over a decade, if you're not willing to completely deplete your BMI inventory, or drop a lot of money on the game, you're not going to get very far with these new trophies.

I also expect to see some of the rare companions again in future promos - every account was able to win ONE fairy when it was released. Most of us have placed our one fairy on a horse. That horse will no longer count towards the companion trophy/collection since it's an existing companion. And for the majority of players, especially new players, to have a chance at completing the trophy/collection, it will need to be offered again so we can place it on a horse after these changes go live.

This is the trophy rewards list.

It also sounds like howrse is wanting the old horses to go....I WILL NOT GET RID of my old horses I have spent a lot of time and money on them. The new trophy change is a kick in the gut in my opinion and I am reconsidering my game play...I think I am going to enjoy the OLD horse I do have while they let me have tham

’m still slightly confused. I’ve read over the clarifications and this is probably an obvious answer but it evades me: will a golden/retired apple or Helios ray item itself be removed from a horse’s equipped items? Are the horses just set to default?
