Solarian Insider - April 4th Edition

Greetings Solarians!

I have finally come out of my hibernation to share some news with all of you!


Estertide is here!

This year we have a proper event for Estertide instead of two silly little Solarians throwing random eggs at locals. You can check out the festivities at the Estertide Quest Booth!
There's also an event shop that's been set up for anyone who has some egg tokens they wish to spend, so go take a peek at the Estertide Shop!  

As a reminder, the Estertide event quests will close on the 30th of April, 11:59pm Server Time!
The event shop closes one week after the last event quest has been rolled!


Serah's Sketches - April/May is live!

Serah's Sketches for April/May is now live in the Community Hall with a a simple guaranteed reward! The theme of the quest for this go around is helping with repairing the Job Board!


Go check it out now for this month's rewards! 


Trait Competion;

We hosted a trait competition a few weeks ago and we want to keep y'all posted on the progress of how choosing winner/s is going!

Currently, we have a full list compiled of all of the entries separated by type of trait (power, gene, seasonal, etc) and will be having a full discussion of which ones could work for the species and how they could be implemented.

We ask that y'all have a bit of patience with us on choosing traits from the ones suggested!


Recent changes;

A lot has changed over the last few months and we appreciate everyone sticking with us as things moved around. 

Some of the most noteable changes recently are quests allowing up to 6 entries on a sheet in a single submission and quest limits being changed from daily to weekly, especially for event quests. We also have been changing seasonal traits slowly to allow for a bit more flexibility for users. And then the Droma MYO Tablets have changed quite a bit to allow for them to be more in-line with Kia MYO Potions. 

We have plenty other changes to come soon and we hope that y'all are as excited for them as we are!


The road ahead;

Want to give y'all a breakdown of what to expect over the next few weeks/months as things are getting sorted out on the back end and new things are being worked on. 

- Events; Estertide will likely be our last event for the first half of the year with the Summer Slam event planned to start mid to late June at the absolute earliest. This will give us roughly 2-ish months to prep for the Summer Slam event as well as getting other things pushed out!

- Prior Event/Quest Rewards; We have pending rewards from the Summer Slam Fossil quest and the Nov/Dec Serah's sketches quest where new pets + items are to be implemented. These are still being worked on, though we hit a snag that caused a delay on them being released (aka missing files or balancing issues) but rest assured they are still high on the to-do list and will be something we focus on getting done as soon as we can!

- Job Board; The Job Board is nearly ready to be re-opened! We are finalizing some of the last few things and checking to make sure it's all good before it goes live. We are estimating it to be opened at the end of April/beginning of May if everything goes smoothly.

- Soulbound Item Changes; SB tags on items have been in discussion for a while and we are planning to take the down-time to start rolling out some of these changes. We want to be clear that these will roll out slowly and will be going by category to make things smoother and easier to track on our end. 

- Droma Special Overhaul/Rework; This one has been slowly worked on in the background for a few months and is very close to being done. We are hoping to have it done before the summer event but don't have an exact date nailed down yet. Currently we are working on sorting out the specifics for droma breedings which is all heavy number balancing, which can take quite a while. 

- MSQ Lead-up; The Main Story Quests are something that have been highly anticipated for quite a while and we apologize that it has taken so long for anything to come out for them. We definitely have not forgotten about the MSQ and are looking forward to it finally being released. That being said, while we don't have the first section of the MSQ ready quite yet, we will be releasing a lead-up quest to introduction to a few of the key NPCs that will play a large part in the first section of the MSQ and to set the tone for it as well! You can expect this quest to release shortly after the Job Board is completed. 


 

That's all, folks!
