"The effect of the tub of grease is permanent (+8 in stamina and speed)"

Oh, thank you for making the Fortune useful! This will be so useful for my mustangs, whose two top skills are speed and stamina!.

@Oathkeeper
Then I don't understand why it's visible in the black marker? Unavailable items were never visible when not for sale (except for pass seeds maybe)

It could just be they left it there by accident, or intentionally. We can only guess why they decided to do it.

So we have to buy the Croesus Fortune separate now? Used to come with the Bonus Pack

Kairos dial is probably the only thing I'm actually happy about that is available in the store now.. I thought there would be more available after this update

So for the Croesus Fortune change, it mentions the change being retroactive for all the fortunes in the inventory. Does that also apply to horses who already have the fortune?

It doesn't appear to, I just aged up a horse that had the CF prior and it lost the ToG after the usual 3 agings

Well that's a bit disappointing

I like that the ToG is now permanent.

I don't like that I have to buy it and the comb and pick, which I used to get for free.

Can we still find comb, hoof pick and grease by doing missions? Or are we forced to buy/use a Croesus Fortune to get the first 2 items? Does this also make Longma useless?

I'm not happy with all the changes personally. It was frustrating sometimes trying to get ToG but I liked the fact of finding these items randomly.

As for the Bonus pack and Croesus Fortune I never use them so they'll still sit collecting dust. Or I'll set up a new UFO on my page.

Yes, I would like to know this too?

Me three. Especially about Longma and his perk.

I just found a tog when doing a mission

In fact, I seem to be getting a higher than normal amount of tog's and sugar cubes today

I read that as log and thought there was another new item.

Thank you for confirming.

I *love* that we can link to sections in the manuals, that will be super helpful for helping new players! I think it's good that the Bonus Pack now lets non VIP players have horseshoe studs too, I think that makes things fairer. I'm not sure what I think about the Croesus Fortune and other Bonus Pack changes yet. I also think it's nice to have the Kairos Dial available, that's a useful BMI for certain horses!!

Looks like we get combs and hoof picks too when Missioning.

I wish they would just explain everything when they make changes.

What I don't understand is why I got "161 x Ploutos' Parchment as compensation"?
It doesn't look like they took them, Plutos' Parchment, off of my Divines. Or are they going too????

Do you have 161 bonus packs? They removed them from the packs and gave us the parchment in inventory

Boo. I had a load of Croesus fortunes which are now converted to parchment. Not happy.

You still have any individual Croesus Fortunes you had in inventory.

The Fortunes were not converted to Parchments, the Parchments came from the Bonus Packs.

Oh. Never mind. I saw what they did! The changes are good then. Got it.

I've always loved the Croesus Fortune. I love them even more now! *does a little happy dance*

And nice one on the Bonus Pack. Since we got the divines that have to be fed droppings, I stopped using the Parchments for anything other than trading. Ditto the Bonus Packs. Now that they no longer contain the Parchment, I can use those packs again on my horses

Having the Tub of Grease as a permanent item on any horse with a Croesus Fortune is very nice, especially when using a Grand Prix-type horse as a rosette earner for the trophies (needs at least 225 rosettes for the maximum trophies). I always give those horses a CF, so no I won't have to count the 'cycles' any more so they have matching ToG and Falabella bonus on the same days, because it will be automatic

So, I have no clue how the tub of grease works now.. is it a permanent item? I see yes, I see no.. which is it?
If it is permanent, what use is the divine Longma now? Her perk is, after all, a 100% to find a ToG when her bonus triggers.
