Tier 6 Female from a Tier 5/4 Horse Combo

My first Tier 6 Female!  I bred her while on Ryshara at Training Level 9.  Here are the details:

4 Tier Male Level 29 Horse

5 Tier Female Level 17 Horse

Tier 6 Female Horse!

The next breeding was a Tier 5 Female

And the exchange produced a Tier 5 Male

Tier 6 Male from Two Tier 4 Level 25 Horses!

My first Tier 6!  I was so excited when I bred this on Ryshara ... here are the details:

Tier 4 Male Level 25

Tier 4 Female Level 25


Tier 5 Female when bred!



 Tier 6 Male when exchanged!






Tier 5 Male from a Tier 2 and 3 Horse Breeding

Here is a great result I wasn't expecting (sometimes RNG isn't with me hehe)

Tier 3 Male Level 30 + Tier 2 Female Level 30



Resulted in a Tier 5 Male... a match to my first Tier 5 female!


After exchanging the pair, I received a Tier 4 Female

Amazing Breeding Results (at least for me)

Tier 2, Level 20 Male and Tier 3, Level 21 Female



The breeding result was a Tier 4 Female (named her Unreal cause I thought she'd be another Tier 4 Male based the color pattern)


And since I wanted to free myself of all Tier 3 horses in Heidel I did an exchange and got another Tier 4 female

My New Tier 5 Female


Tier 4 level 7 Female and Tier 4 level 25 male produced this.  However, I did not breed this pair.  I usually breed something that leaves me mostly with Tier 4 males.  But thankfully I have one of the best friends anyone could ever have, Ryshara.  She sold this horse to me without hesitation.  Thank you Ryshara, truly you are a wonderful person!

Connect Nodes to Link Epheria Port to Calpheon


Here are the Nodes you need to activate:

Epheria Sentry Post (See Paso Anca in the building at the top)

Epheria Valley (See Shepherd Ron)

Isolated Sentry Post (See Alca Antoure)

Abandoned Land (See Bipache)


If you followed my post on connecting Tin and Birch nodes to farm then this will fit in nicely as you'll have a steady supply to send to Epheria Port to build your fishing boat.  Enjoy!

Top 30 Rankings List - Training


This was as of April 17th at around 9:15AM....Ryshara and Allestor both on the Top 30 Rankings List for Training!  This was really nice for us to see so I figured I share it with all.

Also, wanted to post a picture of a Tier 5 horse I'm currently working to level.  He's level 8 with 6 skills including Drift, Instant Accel, and Charge.  The picture I am showing displays his stats (with no gear). His current worth is about 6.7 million silver!  This is by far the best horse I've had in this game.  So if you ever happen to purchase a Tier 5 horse with the name Lightning just know that it was bred by Allestor.

Connect Nodes to Farm Birch and Tin Near Calpheon


The importance of Tin Ore and Birch Timber becomes very apparent when you start to craft a Fishing Boat for the first time.  Currently I am building Fishing Boast in Epheria Port but I farm both of these materials to the NE of Calpheon.  This screen shot shows how the nodes are connected.  The names of the nodes are as follows:

Dias Farm
Northern Wheat Plantation
Old Dandelion (Node manager is Little Khuruto Gati)
Khuruto Cave (Node manager is Karcenov)

Just adding this from another site I found.  Pretty cool chart showing the different breeds.

Auto-Looping Horses

As of today the auto-looping feature has been released in NA!  Many of us are quite excited by this but not everyone knows how to use this feature.  Here's a walk-through on how to do so:

First, go to a starting location on your horse and then open your map.  I chose the Western Guard Camp.  I clicked on the icon for the Stable Keeper at this location.  Then I chose my next destination, the weirdo Stable Keeper in Glish by holding down the "Alt" key.  If you do this correctly you will suddenly see 2 light pillars on the map.  From there, I then chose my next destination, the northern Stable Keeper in Heidel, again holding the "Alt" key down.  Next destination was the Velia Stable Keeper and to complete the loop I clicked on the Stable Keeper in the Western Guard Camp.  The picture below show what the loop looks like once it is complete.  Make note that instead of the normal blue line for the Auto Path it turns to green to indicate the Auto Loop.


With all this looping you might wonder how to keep up the stamina for your horse.  Luckily the developers added an easy "Automatically use carrots when stamina is low" check box once you begin Auto Looping.  Take note that the carrot is fed to the horse when stamina gets below 900.  I am only using the basic carrots and still have enough stamina before the next use of the carrot so it seems to be okay to use the regular carrots if you do not have any special ones.  Not sure if there is a selection criteria if you have both in your inventory but simple experimentation should tell you that answer. Below is a snippet of where you'll see it on your UI.  You may need to edit the UI in order to see this if you've customized the UI in the past.



I hope this helps you out and enjoy the now easy leveling of your horses!

T2 Level 15 Female and T3 Level 11 Male Exchanged for a T3 Female

I was looking for another T3 female to level up and couldn't find one on the market so I decided to do a quick exchange of horses to create one.

I took two horses unable to breed anymore and exchanged them for a nice T3 female that I named Telltale:

T2L15F + T3L11M = T3F(with 100% streak jump)


Should work perfectly on my quest to create some more T4 females :)

Make "Good Feed" for your Pets!

Make sure whoever is making this is at least Apprentice level in Cooking.

This needs to be prepared at your cooking utensil:

6x Weasel Meat
4x Potato Flour
3x Mineral Water
1x Mudskipper

You can use any "white" grade fish as a substitute or 2 dried fish of the same grade

Also, fox meat and possibly wolf meat can be used as a substitute as well.

Enjoy!
