New Limited Edition Miracle and Chocolate Baloofles!
Limited Edition Chocolate Baloofle
Limited Edition Chocolate Baloofles are available now! Experts in confections and all things sweet, these creatures harness the power of everyone’s’ favorite treat to defend themselves, buff their teammates, and create a generally sticky situation for their opponents.
Each creature has a +5 for each natural stat, and all are level 1. They have a special Chocolate Soul complete with unique spells not found on any other element. The vendor is in front of the main store and will only be available from July 22nd through August 4th. They are priced at L$2,499.
Limited Edition Miracle Baloofle
Limited Edition Miracle Baloofle creatures are available now! The Miracle souls in these creatures cause the manifestation of incredible traits and attributes specific to this elemental bond, and they are gifted with spells that fully synergize with these traits!
Each limited edition creature comes with three miraculous traits: Sustenance, Resurrection, and Surging Salves. Additionally, creatures with this particular soul have access to other miraculous traits that may be mutated when using Radioactive Candy!
The three included traits have the following effects:
- Sustenance: When food is fed to this creature, it may miraculously be converted into experience points
- Resurrection: When this creature dies, it may miraculously revive at full health with increased strength
- Surging Salves: When this creature is healed, it may gain a miraculous increase in strength
Each creature will have a +5 for each natural stat, and all will be level 1. They have a special Miracle Soul complete with unique spells not found on any other type, and all have matching affinity bodies. The vendor is in front of the main store, and will only be available from July 22nd through August 4th. They are priced at L$2,499.
LIMITED TIME OFFER – LE Trade-Ins!
Trade in an older generation BONDED LE to receive a new Limited Edition Miracle or Chocolate Baloofle! Click on “Creatures -> Bonded Creatures”, then click on the creature you would like to trade in! You’ll see a simple button allowing you to trade in your LE, and upon confirmation you will randomly receive ONE of the TWO new Limited Edition Baloofles.
This is a small token of appreciation extended to all of our long-time players. More details around Krafties market initiatives are outlined in the dev note at the bottom of this post, but, simply put, this has been enacted not only as a thank-you to our players, but as an intentional mechanism to reduce the supply of older Limited Edition creatures. As supply decreases, rarity increases!
NOTE: Only LEs with Limited Edition soul types are able to be traded in. Any LE creatures that were purchased as UNBONDED types and then were given an elemental soul, or LEs with CRAFTABLE soul types, are not eligible for this trade in.
New Eyes At Krafties Kurios – Deep Blush!
Come on down to Krafties Kurios, where we peddle a rotating assortment of rare goods and exclusive wares you can’t find anywhere else! The products offered in this shop change often, so you never know what might pop up next or what our zany shop manager might be looking to swap for. That’s right! Not only can the wares in this shop be purchased using the almighty dollar, but shoppers may also opt to trade in their hard earned loot for shiny new goodies.
Introducing the next up in the Deep collection: the Blush Eye Stone. What can you swap for, you ask? We’re keeping the swapping as simple as possible for now: buy them with L$ or KraftieCoins! Rare Eye Stones procured from the swap shop are transferrable.
Birthday Balloons
Birthday Balloons are here for the birthday celebration! These special, limited items are a more affordable way to purchase flash events for yourself and all your friends! When activated these items float high into the sky signaling the beginning of a random, game-wide event. You can purchase Birthday Balloons either from the Shopping App or on Krafties Island. They’re only on sale through August 4th!
BIG HONKIN TRADES
Shopkeepers want your items more than ever – MASSIVE trades are happening right now! As a small piece of the in-game inflation initiative (outlined below), the NPC shop algorithm has been tweaked to greatly increase the number of materials that are removed from the market and converted into KraftieCoins. The intention behind these trades is to allow players to convert their unused loot into a more “useful currency” (KraftieCoins) at a much faster rate than previously available. However, these trades run a huge range of “good” vs “bad” item-to-coin conversion rates (much larger than the margins that have been in-place for years), so players will have pay careful attention to these values when considering whether the convenience of unloading a bulk of items at once is worthwhile. As more and more KraftieCoin “purchasing power” is established through new additions to the game, the value of materials and other items will be positively impacted in turn due to this correlation. Trades will continue to be tweaked as this inflation initiative is tackled!
This is just a small part of a much larger picture, but we hope that seeing these larger trades piques the interest of our players around what might be coming next!
Giftlet Challengers!
Giftlets: A fun spawn returns for the birthday event! Cute little giftbox creatures are spawning for a short time, and when defeated they drop incredible rewards like Birthday Cake and Adventure Tokens!
Birthday Cake
Birthday Cake! Throughout the birthday week cake is dropping from wilds as loot. When eaten, Birthday Cake grants double crafting xp from item and soul crafts for 30 minutes. It’s a great way to share the birthday spirit with a big group of Krafties friends, so be sure to stock up while you can!
Frosting Coated Wilds
Frosting coated Vulpups and Pandaires are spawning now, only during the birthday event! These sweet new friends are sure to curb your appetite for fun, so grab your nets and follow your sweet tooth.
Candy Fish Swarms
The sticky, sweet waters from the Birthday celebration have attracted a special swarm of fish! The three varieties of candy fish are being spotted in increasing numbers in the sugary waters of Krafties, and these friends have some very special properties. When placed in a fish tank, candy fish provide various degrees of nourishment for themselves and other fish in the tank. Put simply, more candy fish equals less food you have to feed your fish!
Enjoy the celebration, and have fun!
