Do not get your hopes up in thinking you will get all great things from the purple chests. You will only get 8 of these chests for the whole promo and you could luck out and get something nice--or you could get boosters, 20K,30K or 30K or just 15 APs.

Expect 8 purples, 55 gold and about 145 wooden ones.

This is with passes. I was very disappointed with what I got and even if you get the full 560 points and continue to play you will only get gold and wooden chests so there appears to be a finite number of purple. You will have to take your chances if within those 8 purple you get one of the better prizes. Unlike other promos where you could win all the top prizes if you played long enough, this is not happening with this promo.

As much as the perk is great I fell asleep playing this promo and will not be going for the divine.

Has anybody done a pass estimate to complete the insular mine?

new divine
Click to display


In Norse mythology, Baldr (old Icelandic: Baldr, Latin: Balderus) is the god Ase of light, beauty, youth and love. He is the son of Odin and Frigg. His wife is Nanna, and their son Forseti. His domain is Breidablik, who is in heaven (or Sweden, according to the Ynglinga Saga), in a land from which evil is banished. Out of jealousy, the god Loki causes his death. Baldr is then sent to the world of the dead and Loki is punished for his misdeeds, precipitating the arrival of the prophetic battle of Ragnarok where the majority of the gods will perish. Nevertheless Baldr will be spared and with some other survivors he will take part in the revival.

I hate the proposed co-management changes, it would make it impossible for me to fill the way I do now with others accounts default smiley :@ I really hope they don't introduce that!
I also never log off on purpose unless it times me out so there's no way anyone ever is ever again going to access my account apparently default smiley (o)

I'm also really disliking the new proposed changes to co management. - I've already sent a ticket in.
I'm constantly logging in and out throughout the day especially whilst I'm at work and using mobile means I get redirected to mobile version, then I'm have to change to classic version constantly :/
I hate how they never think of the players, Or even discuss with us what is more efficient for us!

Oh dear, that is a terrible new feature. If that is implemented I will not be happy. I completely agree nuttything, thinking about the players is clearly not on their agenda, and it hasn't been for years now..

They said its to stop players exploiting and using other players bmis and essentially cheating. Surely though the co management was a feature introduced to us on the provisions that we need to give a trustworthy player our account for co and we took all responsibility for what happened during that time.
I just said if that was the case why go to something as drastic as that, why not just introduce the same feature that has been used for loaned horses - where bmis are limited.

Not sure about your phone but mine has the option to force the desktop version of a page in it's settings.

I can understand where that change comes from.. Though it's really annoying when they implement it.. Especially when you want to fill for yourself

Click to display
But seriously, "safer and easier"? I can't see anything which makes Co-Management safer. People still have access to all features and stuff they had before. It's quite the contrary I dare to say. Now you can't even be on your account the same time the co-manager is to check if they really do nothing wrong and eventually kick them immediately!
Limiting the amount of people logged in to 2 or 3 would be wiser and more secure instead of saying just you or them. What happens if two Co-managers log in the same time? Who gets kicked in that case?

And easier? Sure, needing to activate a session every time you log off and going to a different site, choosing the Co and connecting there is a lot easier than just typing the Co's account name when logging in [/irony]


oh and about the prices..

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be 6th to 10th and 11th to 15th and so on. With that list those borderline winners get the "better" as well as the "worse" prices.

Or just leave it? Don't fix what isn't broken, they have a habit of doing this. Like you say, it is the holder's responsibility if an account sharer abuses the trust.

It wasn't broken here but on other servers. Or rather abused.
Click to display
I heard stories over on DE for example where around a dozen people logged on to one account at the same time. Some of them AP hunting, others blupping or doing other various things. Co was highly abused over there and most likely on other larger server as well (otherwise it probably wouldn't have changed if it were just them...)
Why they change it globally no idea.. Pass horses aren't changed on all servers as well..

Good bye filling team horses or EC comps, good bye helping teamies out which have no time/or fun for Howrse at the moment but want to help out with anything via Co.

And again major changes to a system only because the big servers cheat and exploit in a big way. Limit the access to how many items may be used or APs can be found, but making it more difficult for people which already don't have any time.

Bet most of the people I help out with Co won't have the nerves to activate EVERY time when they disappear for days or weeks..what about a team member buys a blup horse and disappears..no problem at the moment, many have a senior team member on Co. Seems no longer, cos they have to activate now before leaving..Sure I can foresee when my internet goes down, I break my leg or get a power cut..default smiley (li)

If you are worried about these new features, you should be aware that
Click to display
Howrse is implementing a new function in order to replace the actual way of gaining passes with passhorses. I suppose you have heard some rumors about it.
I am an italian player who has tested this new feature for nearly two years. We were barely able to get 6/7 passes each month. From next week, we won't be able to get passes anymore. Free passes will be replaced by diamonds, and we will have the possibility to get a MAXIMUM of 90 diamonds per month, by completing objectives, included using BMI.
Why am I writing this here?
Because we are the actual Owlient's guinea pigs, which is trying to understand how to implement this function in all versions of Howrse, without stirring up a revolt.
We are alone in this battle and Owlient ignores all our gripes.
Is it time to make our voices heard all together?


Sorry for my english, I am not a native speaker.

I also play on the Italian server. Obviously, we (the 4 servers on which the changes have already been introduced) can't get any free passes. Well, Ow said that we can, using 1) partner offers; 2) pass seeds; 3) horse sales; 4) Croesus; 5) Grand Prix.
But 1) does not work properly, 2) too rare, 3) becomes rather a challenge when free passes are removed, 4) 1-2 passes per month and not many players own this divine, 5) buy a horse for the Grand Prix for passes in order to earn passes or be a part of a top team.
In other words, only those who play in the top teams for the breeds that win the Grand Prix may earn few passes.

But the worst thing is that while we are left with diamonds, horses still can be bought only for equus and/or passes (not for diamonds!) and 6-months subscribtions for either Pegasus or VIP cannot be bought for diamonds! 1 month can be bought but still requires 30 (Pegasus) or 100 (VIP, more than you can receive by completing the objectives) diamonds.

So it would be even worse for teams than the current Co-management system. Many players are leaving the game on that 4 servers (passes will be replaced with diamonds on 22.06 there). I play mainly on this server and would hate to see this changes introduced here.


As for the Co-management changes, I wonder if the Ambassadors were asked. All 3 selected on this server belong to some teams including top ones. Did they approve this changes?
Well, if that happens, once I exhaust my current reserve of passes, I'll be out of this game faster when Owlient can wish me goodbye. I despise P2W (Pay to win) games.

These changes were in the works long before the ambassador program even began. Don't go blaming them for something they never even knew about.

Well for me that defeats the object of shared. I'm rural and my internet often goes off with no warning. Having people on shared means my teams don't get stuck. If I have to activate it I have to be online, which I clearly can't be if my internet has gone. Seems like another way rural people are being made more isolated. I can see this killing teams or at the very least pushing players out of teams who are like me and can lose internet with no warning.

I'm actually not fussed about only one person being on an account at once. If the account owner comes online they can take over the filling or whatever. Yes slightly irritating but I can live with it.

1.6 - Account sharing

"You can allow your family to access your account to take care of your horses. This is very useful for renewing your boarding, your crops, and the box bedding of your equestrian center when you are away. You do not have to give anyone your password, the players that you have authorized to co-manage your account will connect with your ID and their own password! This way, they have a limited access to your account. They can take care of your horses, but they will never be able to delete your game, your equestrian center, or your breeding farms. They cannot sell your horses either.

Warning, co-management of your account should not be entrusted to someone you do not know. Any undesired activity on your account by a co-manager remains your responsibility."

No where does it say anything indicating it is to be used by teams to BLUP, fill comps or share BMIs which is what has been happening on my servers. Howrse can change the access to any feature it feels is not being used in the way it was intended. Short of this they could simply do away with it entirely.

Howrse had a chance to 'fix' this occurrence when it was first introduced. Making the game virtually more impossible then it already is drives its audience away. Already if I wanted to compete with the top teams I'd need to be AP hunting 1000+ horses everyday, and that, along with other activities such as blupping takes a lot of time, we're talking all my afternoons and majority of my weekend - who has the time for that?

And now with the new blupping methods and the new share system + countless other previous changes that keep on chipping at the heart of this game.

Adding more time and money to my blood, sweat and tears is like a kick in the teeth. I've given this game years of cash and time, patience and gruel, its cruelty how they disrespect their players, especially by implementing changes that have not and will not be influenced by us.


Next they'll be banning filling! default smiley (n)
