They look great!

While I am a bit baffled that people storing lots of lupora with the expectation of a full-trait-recolor and then being disappointed and losing gold is actually considered a problem -- I have nothing against adding a warning next time; it seems like a fine idea! Props to those who suggested. :)




Oddly enough i bought a bunch lups but not to regen so much as in case i like the newer look on the individual pet and if not resell to those who like the new look of lups.

However i did collect lunes so i can make my own theme designs, I didnt know it affects the economy. I am also new to all this.

to krin not quoted ..... hope you see this. All the offspring having color regen is perfect to me. I buy lups with designs i already like. So no or few regen traits hardly bothers me. Now that i know better? Hmm what to do with my regen lunes waiting for redesign. :/

Sirfabulous I'll take them. :P

But on a serious note I support this fully. I did collect Lupora before all this but the idea of fully regenning them all seemed overwhelming so I stopped breeding. A partial regen on the ones I've got seem perfect. I'll be able to regen some and sell on the ones that don't work for me so I can get started on breeding for traits.

As to the warning, I can see why it would not be feasible because it would be hard to know exactly which traits will change slots during the revamp.

I have supported many things, I love my luporas very much. The art work, is simply beautiful, I love them.

What I really don't like, are when markings are sliced into two different tiers, and I can only choose one, and unable to have the full look back.

I also have Lupora's missing markings and mutations, and I can't fix them to what they were. And it's making it very hard, to 're-gen' them back to looking normal, and closer to their original looks, or at least a 'better' version.

I have one, missing her collar and she instead has broken shackles??? Which, aren't even showing(despite being 'visible'), just her Etheral wings are. She originally, had two traits showing, but now only one is??? I don't know, this is frustrating and not very much the way some were hoping. At least let us fix the traits to what they originally were, I don't care about getting extras traits, I'd just love for them to look close to what I originally had them as.

Examples.

Before: She had her Collar with her Wings.


After.

She's missing a trait, that should already be visible, the Broken Shackles aren't even showing on her. And all I can change on her, are her colors. I just want, to have her spiked collar back, honestly. It's why I bought her in the first place, cause it looked perfect on her. If Broken Shackles aren't going to show, what use is it to have a slot that's being used up.

I understand of the Economic Standpoint, I do. I just don't like it, when traits are switched to something else that can't be changed back. Broken Shackles and Spiked Collar are in the same mutation tier, so I don't understand why it was changed in the first place, or why Broken Shackles aren't showing up either.

If you haven't read through this thread yet, it should answer some of your questions:

We don't have the artwork finished yet for Broken Shackles so that's why it's showing up blank. As soon as we have it finished and put in, Lupora with that Trait will automatically show it appropriately.

The reason we have to often splice genes with these revamps is that we did not really follow strict guidelines early on with trait allocation. It was more of a... "this slot is empty, let's throw it here!" regardless of what the actual trait looked like. This ended up with basically full body covering genes in G1, G2, and G3. Yea, there were combinations that worked fine or really well even, but there were also a ton of disastrous combinations where you couldn't even really see anything. It was just a mish mash of colors and patterns.

With the revamps, we actively try to make each slot unique and special so that all 6 slots easily work together very well and the goal is to allow 6 trait designs to be very customizable.

But, unfortunately, in doing this, a lot of original genes just won't work. We either have to move them or splice them. It's just an unavoidable part of the process.


All of that said, I am always willing to work with players after a revamp and try and fix your pets as best as I can. So you are always free to send me a PM and I can try and see what I can do to help you out.

Speaking of mishmash combos and revamps, I began wondering about ryos. I just have a couple notes I wanted to share with you
- it seems like the fog could be completely redrawn or shaded and not mess with any traits?
- I wondered if youd switch body traits around, smaller markings going in g3, markings with lots of coverage in g1, and make g2 fog genes?
(Im thinking of how much better magma would be in g1)
- I love the ryo lineart, but will their bodies be reshaded to match the new traits?

Thank you :) Ive just been curious. I feel kinda bad posting it when we just got a revamp xD but everyones obsessing over rys for Halloween and theyre on my mind

It's far too soon for me to really answer any of those questions, unfortunately. Ryori are still a couple of Revamps away and at our current pace, that's probably like 2020 or so. I really can't give any accurate answer on specifics for something so far away. =\
