🦇 October Bonuses & Items
Mystery Magic
Until the end of October, all mystery imports have an additional chance of rolling an October anomaly, separate from their normal anomaly rolls.
All Bag of Dice imports have a 25% chance of a seasonal anomaly, while all other Mystery Tokens have a 10% chance! This includes custom tokens rolled voluntarily as mystery, as well as reroll items such as Magic Dice used throughout the month.
Seasonal Anomalies
Our October seasonals are open until the end of the month! They are available at Uncommon pricing, both in terms of importing (USD/points/coins) and tokens (2 mut or oddity tokens). They can also be randomly rolled in breedings.
Enjoy our seasonal mutations Gnarled and Ghoul, as well as our seasonal oddities Reaper, Cobweb, and Phantom!
Seasonal Items
The seasonal items for this month are as follows:
- Handful of Candy - Grants a +2xp boost to a horse.
- Witch's Brew - Increases the twin and oddity chance to 75% if the breedpic is fullbody + BG.
- Cauldron - Rolls a random item or allows you to trade an item for another of same rarity.
- Werewolf Fur - Adds the Wulf oddity to an undesigned foal or import.
- Spellbook - Rerolls a breeding or mystery import, voiding the original roll.
- Haunted Doll - Rolls a 50/50 chance of either adding or removing a slot from your horse.
- Black Cat - Grants a +13xp boost to a horse without art or literature needed.
- Jack-O-Lantern - Prevents all genes of your choice in a breeding, if genetically possible.
