When you enter the festival zone, go all the way to the left (west) and you'll find this woman with long blonde shiny hair. Talk to her and she'll get you to the egg hunts. ^ ^

Thanks!! :D I forgot to exit the zone I was previous in so I was confused about the festival zone

No problem, happens to me all the time! Happy to help

Hopefully I can get them put in and released today.

Link: https://www.sylestia.com/forums/?thread=46748&page=8#79 Author: AliceHearts Time Posted: 5/23/2017 at 5:29 AM so it was just luck that with this pet of mine this vis trait got replaced by the restriced trait? i gave him Valentine Lace afther he got his horns so when i used the philter that slot was empty.

I don't know what "this vis trait" is referring to, but looking at the pet, it has mostly carried Traits. So if it only had 1 Visible Trait, then no, there wasn't any luck involved in which Trait was lost because there would have only been 1 eligible Trait. If there are more than 1 eligible Traits to be removed though, then it is completely random as to which one is removed.

the removed vis trait was Mutation Three: Naga Helmet. so i knew that trait would be removed (and that is not importen for me) it's where the restriced trait showed up.

so basicly if i have a pet with only 1v5c pet (and the vis trait would be in a slot where there is a chance for a resticed trait) the vis will be replaced by the restriced trait?

but if i have a pet withs is 1v2c (agen the vis is in a slot where restriced trait could come)
like with this puff

Gene One: None
Gene Two: Chipmunk
Gene Three: None
Mutation One: None
Mutation Two: Pinned Flower
Mutation Three: Feathered Wings

Pinned Flower would be removed i know this. but would it mean Steampunk Hat will come there or could i get one of the diverent restriced trait? in one of the empty slots becaus i know Feathered willl stay becaus that slot is already filled up.

sorry if this is confusion (i'm confusion myself with my own thouths while trying to find out of i can find a way to get all for traits in a pb themed project)

The Pet will never lose total Trait Points.

So if a pet is 1v5c, it will only have one option for both removing and adding a Trait, as it won't take away the visible trait and then override a carried Trait - that will never happen.

So yes, in that sense, it becomes predictable.

thank you so much^^ now i only have to breed 2 diverent themed so that i get vis and carry's on the right spot (so no problem at all. ^^' )

(my PF Puffs and BR Aeri will be getting these lovely new traits in there projects^^) i realy love these new philters so much^^ i can't wait for more of them to come out^^

I am getting Flowers!!!

Finally got the Overview put up. I'm sorry that it took so long. Was just prioritizing other things and still getting things set up. So sorry!

Am just copying/pasting it here for easy reference:

Festival Exploration Zone
https://www.sylestia.com/explore/newzone/?zone=astrylsmeadow
This zone is recommended for players using pets of Level 10 and above!

We have built and released a brand new Exploration Zone for this year's Spring Festival! No more tiny, cooped up map! The new map is very large and hosts a total of 16 different Named across 13 different spawn locations! There are over 40 treasure nodes hidden around the map as well! The map is massive and shows some hints of what the MegaZone will feel like. The map also includes the Egg Hunt Maze area, which is also brand new and redesigned.

This year's Egg Hunt has two variations: a Basic and a Mythic version. Both versions function the same and have similar prizes. However, the Mythic version can award much better prizes and awards much better prizes pretty much every time. More specifically:

Basic Egg Hunt: This is completely free and any player can participate in this. However, it can only be done once every 4 Hours. It can award Decorated Eggs, Sylesti Garden Seeds, Sylesti Garden Supplies, unique Avatar Items, and Themed Pets!

Mythic Egg Hunt: This hunt can be done as many times as you want and as often as you want. However, it does cost 400 Diamonds or 800,000 Gold to enter. Prizes include: Restricted Trait Disruptors, Philters of Trait Disruption, Perfumes of Themed Attraction, Bags of Miracle Grow (exclusive ONLy to the Mythic Egg Hunt), Seed Pouches, Fertilizer Bags, other Sylesti Gardening Supplies, unique Avatar Items, and Decorated Eggs.

Keep an eye out for Locked Temples and the Mysterious Golden Key while searching doing the Egg Hunts; you never know what lies inside!




Sylesti Garden
https://www.sylestia.com/festival/festival_spring/sylesti_garden/

The Sylesti Garden is back and better than ever! All players will have access to two Planting Pots at all times. You can purchase additional one-time Planting Pots if needed up to a maximum of 30 Pots at one time. Once you have a Planting Pot available, interact with it to fill it with Dirt for a small amount of Gold. Once filled with Dirt, you can plant one of the 25 Seeds available this festival. Seeds can be found throughout the Festival Zone or by purchasing Seed Pouches from the Diamond Shop or Festival Shop. They can also be found from Contest Reward Pouches.

Once you've planted a Seed, you can now watch it grow! Frequently, your growing Flower will require nurturing, such as being Parched, Wilted, or Overgrown. You can cure these ailments by using Enrichments on it. Enrichments include: Enriched Water, Sun's Glow, and Weed-B-Gone. Every time that your Flower is Enriched, it grows 1 Hour faster. Through the course of its growing time, you will have the opportunity to decrease its growth time considerably! So be sure to Tend your Flowers as much as possible! Enrichments can be obtained from the same methods as Seed Pouches.

In addition to Enrichments, you can also give Fertilizer to your Flowers. Adding Fertilizer will increase the amount of Traits that your Flower Pet will hatch with. There are 3 types of Fertilizer: Lesser Fertilizer (1-Visible*), Greater Fertilizer (2-Visible*), and Exceptional Fertilizer (3-Visible*). Fertilizer can be obtained through the same methods as the other Garden Supplies. Lastly, if you have excess Lesser Fertilizer or Greater Fertilizer, you can combine a bulk amount of them and upgrade them to the next level.

* = This applies to the Regular and Fabled Seeds only. Majestic Seeds use the following system: Lesser Fertilizer (2-Carry), Greater Fertilizer (1-Visible), and Exceptional Fertilizer (2-Visible)

Lastly, you can now use Additives on your Flowers to further enhance them! The following Additives are available:

Blue Tree Sap: Guarantees that the Pet will be a Male.
Pink Tree Sap: Guarantees that the Pet will be a Female.
Genetic Bonding: Allows you to guarantee a Visible Trait in a specific eligible slot.
Genetic Splicer: Guarantees that a Visible Trait will have a hidden Carried Trait.
Root Strengthener: Boosts the Base Stats of a Pet by 100 Health and 5 Str, Int, Dex, and Agi. Can be used four times.
Miracle Grow: Instantly grows the Pet to maximum. This can only be used once that specific Themed Pet has already been harvest once by anyone on the Site.

As an added bonus to this feature, you are also able to Tend other player's Flower Pets! Simply visit their Garden and Tend their Flowers as you would your own. They will be notified of your caring gesture and may even return the favor! You will also earn Decorated Eggs for being such a friendly neighbor!

There are a total of 25 Flower Pets available: 4 Majestic Themed Pets, 7 Fabled Themed Pets, and 14 Regular Themed Pets.

There are also 5 Titles available from the Sylesti Garden! They are as follows:

The Tender: Tend other player's Flowers at least 25 times.
Green Thumb: Harvest at least 1 of every Regular Flower Pet.
Fabled Green Thumb: Harvest at least 1 of every Fabled Flower Pet.
Majestic Green Thumb: Harvest at least 1 Majestic Flower Pet.
Omniscient Gardener: Harvest at least 1 of all 25 Flower Pets.
Premier Green Thumb: Harvest the very first Flower Pet.
