Dawn of the 5th Day!
Hello world-hoppers! We hope you've been well. Here is a small update on various aspects of the site.
BALANCING
The Word on Shells
Early game balancing can be tricky, as there are parts of the game that already exist onsite which the userbase has not reached yet! For this reason, we've temporarily removed Candied Shells from being obtainable without reaching their respective sea-related towns, as they were not meant to be obtainable yet. In tandem with this, the later town alchemy recipes which utilize Candied Shells have also been temporarily disabled until the community has reached their respective towns. (If you have already learned one of these recipes, it will remain in your recipe book but it will not be visible until enabled once more).
The following has also been implemented as a result:
- All pets that were already hatched from these later town hatching items will be able to be kept by their owners, however they will be account-bound so that they can be enjoyed but not profited off of.
- All of these later town hatching items have been removed from accounts that obtained them, and reimbursed with 1 Wardrobe Drawer Expansion!
Peddler Shops
This is the first time Dappervolk has introduced a restocking/set price type shop, as seen with Nico and the world-hopping Peddlers at Peddler's Port! As such, we're still working on balancing the stock in order to ensure the right kind of demand and market flow.
We'll be making small adjustments throughout the next few days while closely monitoring the market!
JUNE FESTIVITIES
What is June Festivities about?
Every year in June on Dappervolk, rainbows and prisms light up
the landscape anywhere they can. In the sky after a light mist,
in the reflection over a lake, and in the eyes of your loved ones.

Join Trout from 3's Forest in uncovering the truth about this phenomenon

You'll be able to obtain the following items during this event through the "Trout and the Rainbows of June" seasonal quest, Adventuring encounters, random item alchemy, and item alchemy recipes!
As a result of the shortened length of this event, we've been adjusting the frequency of obtaining snails while observing the market and balancing. Expect to see some additional snails making their way towards you as the event progresses!
That's all for now, we'll speak again soon!
Comments
Im just curious though, why are you guys so against trading and selling pets. First the account bound quickened turnip, and with that you said it was to prevent people from making accounts to get pet alchemy fodder. But like? It should be really easy to see whos multiaccounting? Same IP, only logging in to hatch pets and transfer them to the other account, not ever doing anything outside of that. And now having these other pets account bound?
I understand that this is more of a story and lore driven game, meant to be taken slowly, but a big chunk of pet sites is....trading and selling pets. People like Low IDs, people like long, unique looking IDs, people assign their own value to pets and thats part of the fun. Its in every game, neopets, flight rising, dragoncave, furvilla, aywas. But it seems so discouraged here.
Having fun trading and collecting pets was a big reason i joined n it just kinda sucks to see it so discouraged here when it doesn't hurt anyone to trade them.
