The searches made using the search form in the breeding farms will now be saved when navigating between breeding farms. If you refresh your page, or come back after visiting another page of the game, the search will be lost.- not sure why you say this is new. searches have always done this
The searches made using the search form in the breeding farms will be saved when scrolling through horses using the arrows < et >. If you come back to the breeding farms page, the saved searches will be canceled and the arrows will behave like before. The selected filter/sorting options will decide the order. - WORST IDEA EVER!!!! x 1000000 (wish there was a way to bold and enlarge my comment)
x 1000000 (would say times more, have more exclamation marks, and unhappy faces, only my message must not contain too many repetitions of the same character)

What's different is now that when you are going through your horses ONLY the ones that match the requirements will appear. So, say I was to tick for the horses to be boarded in an ec and then went to care for my first horse, but there's 2 unboarded horses between them... no problem, the change now means that they will be skipped over, whereas previously it would have included those horses as well as I clicked the arrows to go through them.

What the heck is with the new definition for the Kairos' Dial? It doesn't even tell you what the item does, it just makes some generic blanket statement that sounds like something from a cheap commercial.
Now, I know what the item does, but a new person might not. This is the most unhelpful change literally ever.

Response to Oathkeeper (not sure how to tag in as she did with my comment?): Yes. I understand how this new search programming works. The thing is, I have a system in place that is totally screwed by this new feature. I now have to come up with an entirely new system for managing and caring for my horses. Hence why it is the WORST IDEA EVER etc... as I stated before.

After working with the new breeding farm search I love it even more. I've got a barn of AP farmers that are in different stages of training. Under 5 are in one location for rides. Over 5 are in the other location for rides and over 10 who have bolded skills. Now I can easily sort them and take care of each group separately without worrying about doing rides in the wrong EC.

I'm so so happy that the lag is finally being acknowledged and publicly addressed and hopefully it's only a matter a time before we start to see some improvements!

I totally love the new search function and that the search stays in place when 'scrolling' through horses with < and >. It's amazing
Something completely different:
Would it be a good suggestion to make tack removable? I know that you can turn off seeing tack completely, but I would love some diversity in my horses looks while still being able to fully BLUP them all, hence removing tack when I'm done BLUPping. (And I don't have any Athena's medals). I already sent a suggestion via contact-us but I would be interested in knowing other peoples views on this.

I think that would be a good idea, especially if it reduced the lag! I'd like to be able to remove just wraps and bonnets, as I hate the look of them sometimes (especially wraps on feathered horses!)

Question, is everybody else's trophies messed up?
My pet trophy is missing:
- Ladybug
- Hedgehog
- Snow Monkey.
So, am I the only one??
I didn't have the ladybug, so if somebody who OWNED one could answer this it would be splendid.

Can confirm for snow monkey, but not the others.
Really hoping this gets fixed!

Has anyone been encountering a bug where when you switch to the next horse using the arrows by the name, you are sent o a page that says "howrse is no longer under maintenance"?

@deimos, sorry my reply is a bit late and subject moved on... I can't quote so have copied and pasted your comment
'Yes it is an advantage to buy skills with passes but it is different as everyone has a supply of free passes if they do their daily objectives and everyone has free choice of whether they buy passes and how they spend them. What was completely unfair about the Divine was that it gave a chance of an extra comp every time it triggered which is something that no other player could replicate as you cannot buy the Divine and cannot apply a Nyx pack to a reindeer. The Divine perk does. of course, still apply to all the other horses you own'.
I see what you are saying with regards to passes and that people have free choice to buy them and how they spend them. With regards to the Arvakr divine and its perk, though couldn't the same be said that players had free choice to buy the passes to be able to receive the divine? I think that was my point as to either way you look at it Players paid to be able to get Arvakr and receive his perks, but its considered a disadvantage to those who didn't or couldn't. However those that can afford to buy alot of passes could add major skills to their reindeer and therefore to those that could not it is a disadvantage. I see though with the asses earnt through the game there is a way to still use some passes to put the skills on the reindeer, just not as many as for those who can afford to buy more. Just seemed to me either way there will be advantage or disadvantage in terms of what players can pay for. Its no matter now anyway as its all done and dusted.

Looks like the new farm sorting has a few glitches. In more criteria I chose to see only horses boarded in an EC. Everything worked fine, skipping 3 non boarded horses but then I was taken to a page of a horse that was worked but not boarded. I left the page, set up the criteria again for boarded horses and the 2nd time through the barn it skipped the unboarded worked horse.

hey howrse..thanks for the wonderful overactive glitch. i went to buy ONE nambian wild.
i got TWO.
luckily or unluckily i had enough passes to cover the purchase. i had planned to use those other 900 passes to buy a new skiller. but what the hey. now, i need to figure out how to get 500 more passes for a cloud pack to go with my wannabe skiller.
well, i'm off to blup. let's hope it does not take close to 3 hours because of the lag. it did yesterday.

glitches i'm encountering while blupping
page auto refreshes
two or three clicks to do missions, and they only show as completed up when i refresh the page. too bad buying nambia was not as eager.
but then, missions are not a cash grab for ubisoft.
auto comping. several clicks to activate.
auto comping turns on when skilling
auto comping takes several clicks to STAY turned off, but will bounce back on eagerly when skilling
when skilling jump, auto comp sometimes turns on, and definitely i'll get bounced to enter a dressage comp.
as more turn up, as i proceed..i'll post them here.
please do NOT refer me to contact us. they want screen shots. i'm not techie enough to do screen shots.
i have cleared my cache and cookies.

just finished my blup, breeding and boarding of the foals. and dealing with the glitch of when i board, it does not return me to the horse i have boarded, but to my other horses/general tab.
this means i need to click to get where the babies are, and search/scroll to them.
neat time waster.
this boarding glitch does not just effect foals, i frequently get it when boarding my prix horses.

However those that can afford to buy alot of passes could add major skills to their reindeer and therefore to those that could not it is a disadvantage.
Some points on this:
1) You can use passes on your deer anytime you want. Arvakr Won't be available to get until Black Friday / Next Christmas at the earliest.
2) I think they never intended to have divine's perks giving an advantage. Huanglong's VIP perk (10% extra equus from wins) hasn't worked on Deer since their comps started. I think the effect of Arvakr's perk was overlooked.
3) You could argue buying skills with passes needs some skill on the part of the buyer, or it could end up being a disadvantage. I don't think it's clear exactly how it works yet, but it looks like there are different levels of deer comps, as with normal comps. So someone who bought a massive amount of skills might just find their deer sitting in comps that don't run because there's no other deer with enough skills! Also not sure on this yet, but possibly higher level comps don't actually give more winnings. All of which may mean unless people are clever about how they buy skills, they could end up with no advantage.
Also, the person who won (was it 7 out of 10 places in the top 10? Something like that...) last month has about 30 Arvakr, I believe mostly bought with the Christmas packs in 2019, So there won't be that many folks will be able to get that many through the Christmas packs next year (and even if they are in the Black Friday sale, there probably won't be that many!)
I don't mind that they won a lot last month. They seem a nice enough person, and their divines often 'fill' for mine
So good for them. But it would get rather boring if it was every month....

OK, so when are we going to get our pm's and passes for our deer? I'm sure we'd got them by now in previous months. Hopefully it's current results, as my Prancer is showing 3rd!
