Edit: I have now been challenged and have now gone Grinding/Sylestie hoarding

-waves- hi... OKAY so mostly I'm a lurker that only comes out for Design Competitions otherwise I don't really do much on Sylestia besides send my pets on missions. Due to that I really don't do much on Sylestia but I'd like to get more into it so what I want you to do is
give me a challenge

Doesn't have to be big but I'd like to be challenged by something that's long term but doesn't require me to live on Sylestia (that's a bit over the top) so throw me a breeding, dye, hoarding, or other silly challenges!

Breed your own max stat pet from scratch using pets you catch yourself.

I think saving 10m gold is quite hard for some people. This will test your patience to not spend too much gold on stuffs you probably don't need so it can be quite challenging. :p

:O That sounds amazing! Any specific species?

HMMMMMM I will try this one, but I am very bad a earning cash XD (200k atm)

What do you like most about Sylestia?
It's easier to work some goals when you have an idea of what you like.
For example:
I collect legendaries myself. I enjoy dying and mutating them to make them gorgeous~
Still trying to get my first goal complete of having one legendary of every species. (Only missing Ferrikki at this point)
A lot of my goals stem from legendary/mythical pets though~ :)

Luga! I thought you were gone for good!

Your arena guide helped me *a lot* in the past!

By the time I got to Ethernia, you had already left, so I never got to thank you. :)

In terms of goals, when I first started I wanted better equipment, but didn't have the gold or patience to get mythical equipment (each piece was 500,000-900,000 back then!). So I made the goal to fully equip my pets with Arena gear (used to be 2nd best available). These can only be bought with Arena tokens. So with the help of Luga's guide ^^, I had a bunch of arena goals. I even made it onto the "Endless wave" highscore list!

Right now I don't spend so much time in the arena, but have "make max stat versions of my favorite pets" and "collect full sets of different types of equipment" as goals. :D

Noodles if you want hard mode. Other than that... any species you like.

Glad to hear that, Malikas! :D

Some mechanics of some bosses probably have been changed, not to mention stats and proficiency system have been changed as well so I'll have to rewrite my guide from scratch. The thing is I'm too lazy to even do one arena fight nowadays. My laziness made me stacked up 20k satchels before I took hiatus and I need to reap what I sow now. lol

Lol! 20k satchels.... o.O

As far as I can tell, the bosses are about the same. But the sylesti stats, attacks, ideal elements, etc. are obviously all different.

I don't bother with the arena anymore either, since I've long since gotten the equipment I wanted, and the arena doesn't change.. But the lost grove seems pretty arena-like, so *shrugs*.

Tackling elaine at low levels can be...challenging! :P But the difference is amazing once proficiencies go up!
