• The quest is repeatable once a day, and you can choose a parcel of presents each day.
• After 7 days, you can unlock an additional quest to attend the Masquerade within the Festive Breeze quest.
• After you attend the masquerade, you can continue repeating the Festive Breeze quest for smaller rewards until the end of the Anniversary festivities on July 5th, 11:59PM DVT!
  

Anniversary items can be obtained in the following ways:

• Anniversary Daily Quest: "A Festive Breeze"
• Anniversary Single Quest: "The Masquerade Night"
• Agnes' Daily Gift Quest
• Officiator's Official Token Exchange Quest
• Random Events
  

The following updates have been applied to all Louise Hill Daily Errands.

• Maximum completions for each daily quest in Louise Hill have gone from 7 to 3.
• A reroll option with the player choice text "Can I help you with something else instead?" has been added to the beginning of each task.
  
  • This option can be used once per quest completion to generate a new task different from the initial one.
    
  
  
• Tasks have been either edited or scaled according to the reduced number of dailies each day. Some higher effort tasks such as adventuring have stayed the same for better balancing.
• Positive quest ending potato rewards were greatly increased.
• Affection gained or lost has been multiplied to be equal to doing 7 quests previously.
• Conecake rewards are now multiplied and increased.
• Dual-stat NPC's now give out a random assortment of the two types of conecakes instead of a set kind.
• Dialogue has been compressed to fewer total text boxes to lessen clicks.
• Transitions and redirects have been updated to be more streamlined and give users more freedom.
  

A total of 83 new items have been released!
New items have arrived in each NPC's chance shop, the following shop stock adjustments have been made:

• A Bonus Prize pool with claims costing an equivalent of 10 spins has been added to each NPC's shop.
• Totems, Pen Expansions, and Wardrobe Expansions, have been moved to each NPC's Bonus Prize pool in their shop instead of being in the chance pool.
• 1-2 newly drawn items have been added to each NPC's clothing set, each item with colourations matching that of the existing sets.
• An additional 4th set colour has been added for each NPC, and can be found in their chance shop stock as well as bonus prizes.
• Pet Hatching items and NPC food have been added to the bonus prize pool as well while keeping them in the chance pool.
  

The following non-general changes and additions have been applied to the NPC's below:

• Bearnard's errands have stayed mostly the same besides some amount scaling where applicable, with the addition of interacting with your turnipling while showing him your pet.
• Bearnard has gained a spade and turnip field background to his collection of items, as well as a golden coloured set.
  

• Buli's errands have been scaled, with the addition of some pet interation and a new alchemy task since she only had 3 tasks before.
• Buli has gained a new hair bow item and opal coloured set in her shop.
• The account bound Quickened Turnip hatching item has also been added to her bonus claim for anyone wanting additional Quickened Turniplings after obtaining their first one.
  

• Calbet's errands have been scaled with hand in item pools expanded where possible. His new hair task has been adjusted to include some minigame plays.
• Calbet has gained new eyes and training field background items in his collection, with the addition of an obsidian coloured set.
  

• Farmhand's errands have been scaled somewhat, with the addition of a new alchemy task since he only had 3 different tasks previously.
• Farmhand has gained a new pair of pants and a definitely non-magical study background in his collection, with the addition of a cosmic coloured new set.
  

• Lilia's errands have been scaled, with her avatar dress-up task being changed to a different clothing collection task.
• Lilia has gained a new pinstripe shirt and an eyes item in her collection, with the addition of a midnight coloured set.
  

• Fantasia's errands have been scaled, with the Lilia armour task being changed to a different material collection task.
• Fantasia has gained a new sword and eyes items in their collection, with the addition of a silver coloured set.
  

• This is the first major installment of daily quest balancing that we have planned. We're planning to release these updates town by town in order to eventually balance all existing towns.
• With the addition of new items as well as bonus prize pools for NPC shops, we're aiming to make it so that certain items are obtained by choice rather than by chance. For example, the pen expansions were being dropped too often and filling up inventories without any purpose, now they can be picked up only if the user wants one.
• In addition, the bonus prize and shop stock updates have opened the possibility of adding new items more easily to NPC shops in the future within smaller content updates.
• We'll be looking at how everything plays out on site scale and making any adjustments and notes for future updates!
• Coming up next is the 3's Forest daily balancing, which will include a rebalancing of the 3 witches' temporary dailies within the main questline.
• It's our hope that these balancing updates will make one of the core mechanics of Dappervolk more streamlined, less click intensive, less repetitive, as well as giving users some agency via the reroll option.
  

  

• The ingredients to make the hatching item can be found in Pai, Agnes, and Oran's shops' Bonus Prize pools.
• The item alchemy recipe is available in your recipe book and shown above.
• This Seasonal Pet will remain in the shops for 3 months and rotate out at the end of August to be replaced by a pet for the next season.
• Seasonal pets are obtainable annually on a rotation! The hatching items can be alchemized at any time of the year.
  

 
QUEST BALANCING - LOUISE HILL
Our first round of quest balancing and existing town updates is scheduled for some time in the first half of the month. We're in our final stages of testing and asset preparation, and excited to see what you think!
Here's a more finalized list of daily quest updates as well as new assets and balancing adjustments for the update:

• Max daily quest completions will be lowered from 7 to 3 per day.
• Both tasks and rewards will be adjusted and scaled up accordingly. Potato rewards will be raised overall.
• A Task Reroll option will be available at least once per quest and avoid the task you rerolled from.
• Dialogue will be condensed together where possible to reduce clicks but not remove written assets.
• Any transition issues will be adjusted for smoother questing.
• Each NPC shop will house new items and a new set of recolours.
• Certain items such as pen expansions and wardrobe expansions will be moved to npc shop bonus claims for more player choice.
  

We're also working on the 3's Forest balancing update which will happen some time after this month!

DAPPERVOLK'S SECOND ANNIVERSARY
June 21st marks our second year since official launch! Time sure flies, and we're so excited to be here with you. We have some small surprises and festivities in store for this anniversary, so look forward to it!

SUMMER EVENT DECISIONS
If we were to host a new deity based event this summer, Ivita would be the only deity that doesn't yet have any quests during this season, but time is quite tight since Ivita's month is in July. After some consideration, we've come to the conclusion that there isn't enough time to prepare a fully realized ivita event, and having back to back events with no downtime wouldn't be feasible for our team right now. 

So, instead of an Ivita summer event in July this year, we're planning to work on and launch a new team-based event type some time in late summer with a non-deity theme. The event will be focused around new mechanics and there should be some fun surprises and deviation from the norm, this will be a good way for us to test this event type for the first time and also give us time to prepare a fuller story for Fall. We'll keep you posted on developments, thanks for understanding!
