Guide to Sylestia Icons
~Hi all! I saw that some people were struggling to figure out what all the various icons scattered around the site meant, so I decided to create a guide for it.~

Icons Found in the Stable:

~Displays if a pet is unconscious or not. The gray version means the pet is conscious and does not need healing. A red icon means it is unconscious and will need to be revived. Hovering over this will tell how the pet fell unconscious, for example if the pet was unfed, it will say that the pet must be fed to be revived. If it was in battle, it will notify that it fell unconscious by being in the user's party.~
(Also note, if the pet is unconscious, it's picture in the stable will be in gray-scale.)


~Displays if a pet is active in the party or not. Grayed icon means the pet is not in use. Colored means the pet is currently active in the exploration party. ~


~Mission icon tells if a pet is actively doing a mission. Grayed means the pet is not on a mission. Colored means the pet is preoccupied in the mission field. Hovering over will tell when the mission ends.~


~This icon shows if a pet has level-up points to spend. Gray means the pet has not gone up in level recently and has no points to spend. Colored means it has points available. Hovering over this will tell how many points are available.~


~This icon shows if a pet has proficiency points available. A colored icon means it has points to spend. Hovering over will tell how many are available. ~


~This icon shows if a female pet is recovering. A colored icon means she has recently been bred. Hovering over the colored icon will show when she is next available to breed. ~


~Tells if a pet is for sale or not. Colored icon means the pet is for sale. Hovering over tells how much the pet costs.~



~Tells if a pet is up for public breeding. Colroed icon means the pet can be bred publicly, for a price. Hovering over tells you the price per breeding.~

Misc Icons

Old battle system:
(Viridan Meadows, Umbra Forest)

~View Inventory. This allows you to see all of your traps and genetic scanners.~


~MAnage party. This allows you to use potions, etc on your pets.


~This turns the battle music on or off. Music is on by default. ~
(Sometimes, clicking this doesn't work, and music continues to play. Simply refresh the page, and it should work after that. I'm not sure if this has been fixed or not, so leaving that here just in case it hasn't been.)


~Used during battle, and tells if that pet has been instructed to make a move, be it an attack, block, or heal. The red "x" means it has not been instructed to do anything. The green mark tells that the pet has been given an order.~

Current Explore System:
(Astryl's Vale, Festival Zones)


~Unused icon, not much is known about its use.. When hovered over, it says "Search the Area". ~


~Unused icon, not much is known about its use. When hovered over, it says "View Zone Map."~


~Inventory button. This will only show your potions, elixirs, fairy mushrooms, etc. Basically, healing items. You can use these items on your pets on this page as well. ~


~Manage Party button. Allows you to change the order your party pets appear in battle.~

Generator Icons:
(Found on the "Generate" page)


~Pops up a small window with a tutorial on how to use the generator.~


~Reset button. There are two. The first is found in the genes/mutations section, and is used to reset the genes/mutations. The second is found in the colors section, and is used to reset the colors of the pet. warning: Once something is reset, you cannot go back unless you saved the design before hitting reset.~


~Allows you to select a color to work with. The green arrow indicates the current color, which is the one that will be changed when you mess with the color selector at the bottom of the page.~


~Allows you to randomize a SINGLE trait. This will be the color that your green arrow indicator is pointing to. (See green arrow above) ~


~Allows you to randomize ALL colors on the pet. ~





Inbox Icons:


~Refreshes the inbox.~

(Note: the following appear when you open a received message)


~Sends a friend request to the user.~


~Blocks the user.~


~Reports the user/message.~





Inventory Icons:



~Deletes the selected item(s). Warning: once this is done, items are gone forever. Only use this if you are completely sure you want to remove the item.~


~Auto-sort ALL tabs. Items are sorted by rarity and type. ~


~Auto-sorts CURRENT tab. Items are sorted by type and rarity. For example: Before, after .~


~Collapse all tabs button. When this is clicked, all items condense into the first few tabs. or example, if you had 4 tabs, but each only had 4 items in it, then those items would all be condensed into the first tab until the first tab was full, then they would be sent to the second tab, etc, until all the items were in a tab.~


~Collapses the current tab. When this is clicked, all items in the selected tab are moved to the first few slots in the tab. Before, after. Unlike the sort button, this only moves the items. Items are just moved in the order they appear, compared to the sort button which sorts by type and rarity.~
(For contrast, this is the same 4 items I used in this example after i clicked the SORT tab icon.)


~In this context, the gold icon is an indicator of how much an item or group of items sells for once placed in the sell area of the inventory (the green box portion)~


~These allow you to trade an item directly to another user. The grey indicates either the item is not tradeable, or no item is selected. Green indicates the item is tradeable, and once clicked it will pop up with a box that allows you to select a recipient of the item either from your friends list or by typing the username in, as well as allowing you to put a price on the item via the box labeled "CoD Fee", if you are selling the item to the other user. (leaving the "CoD fee" as 0 means the item is free.)~




Wardrobe Icons:

~Indicates the price for unlockable items that require either diamonds or AP. The diamond icon, when not next to an actual number value, can also mean the item is obtained in the avatar shop. Diamond priced unlockable vs avatar shop item.~


~Previews the item on your avatar. Once your avi is saved, this item is removed, as you do not actually own the item and are just "trying it on." Once you own the item, it can be used normally and saved on your avatar.~


~Indicates the item is found by exploring. Most fo these are boss drops, but some are obtained as rewards for storyline quests.~


~Item is found by speaking to a town merchant.~


~Indicates the item was obtained as a prize for a forum game. This can mean either a reward, or as a simple participation prize. ~
(Fun fact! This icon is an early version of Faiona's avatar! Since she is often the one who creates the forum games, this makes perfect sense.)


~Indicates a custom item. Custom items are monthly diamond-bought items that the admins have allowed to be edited and submitted as a custom design. For more details on custom designing, visit Flute's handy-dandy guide here! You can view which of the current month's items are design-able on the monthly announcement thread.~


~Item was obtained during a seasonal festival. These can be boss drops or obtained via the festival shops. Others are obtained by participating in festival activities, which vary per season.~


~Monthly item. These are only obtainable during the month they are released, otherwise you will have to buy them from a user who purchased them during that month. They are also only obtained originally via the diamond avatar shop. ~


~Allows you to remove the item from your wardrobe. The item will be returned to your inventory, and will have to be used again in order to be returned to the wardrobe. After being removed,a n item can be sold, etc, as there is no way to do this without first removing the item from your wardrobe.~
