More new features!

Today we have Crafting, Salvaging, Gathering and other quests, and even a new shop!

There is a lot to cover, but I will try to keep it to the point. Lets dive in!




Crafting

Crafting recipes using tags have been temporarily disabled due to a bug.
Everything should be good to go now

• Crafting is a way to create new items.
  
  
• You input up to 4 items, and if your recipe is successful, gain something new!
  
  
• Successful recipes are learned forever, so you can always craft them again with ease.
  
  
• If your recipe is incorrect, your items might be consumed unless you purchase the Experimental Insurance for 5,000pp.
  
  
• Crafting only allows you to input valid crafting items, so if an item isn't used in a recipe, it simply wont show up. This is to protect your items that aren't meant to be crafted with!

Salvaging

• Some items have been added to salvage pools where you might reclaim scrap from them.
  
  
• Items up for salvage may not always give scrap, but scrap is a useful material to have for crafting.
  
  
• Your special TE items will never be part of the salvage system-- they are safe!

Gathering

• Gathering is done via quests, but these quests are repeatable all day long if you wish.
  
  
• The Flowering Field and Babbling Brook have a 5 minute timeout when you successfully complete them. All other gathering quests have no limits!
  
  
• There are 8 gathering areas in total, divided into 4 focused on foraging, and 4 focused on mining.
  
  
• Each area requires a more complicated to obtain/craft item, and progress in difficulty through 4 stages.

More New Quests!

• There are 3 new quests focused on using the new materials!
  
  
• These new quests will help teach you recipes if you pay attention to what they have to say when you are successful!

1. Gourmet Cooking
   
   
   • Asks for crafted gourmet foods
     
   • Gives pence and hints for cooking recipes.
     
   • 10 Plays per day (15 for premium)
   
   
2. The Tinkerer
   
   
   • Asks for gathered materials

New Shop

• Whisker sells some very important crafting materials!
  
  
• Some of these materials are special "Crafting Tools" that wont ever be consumed while crafting. Some examples are the Basic Cookware Kit, Novice Alembic, Frame Loom, and any other that says [ Crafting Tool ] in the description!
  
  
• Others, such as the blueprints, are consumed while crafting and you will want to stock up!
  
  
• Note that he also sells the Foraging Basket and Mining Pans needed to get started with gathering. :)

A new Restock Race has begun!
You will need to purchase 15 Black Hood from the Mushroom Shops before next Saturday. The Ichuan with the fastest time wins. Remember your timer starts with your first purchase of the item, Good luck!

Looking for some exciting Aurestal gift ideas? Look no further! These fresh new Items are hot off the press and ready to be placed under the Aurestal Tree (or in your collections, if you'd like to keep them for yourselves!)



First up is the Crystal Audril Plushie, funded by @AceRabbit. It's a sparkly, cuddly gift that's as cute as can be! Pick one up at the Plushie Palace or get one as a reward from the Book Quest. We suggest buying a couple of extras in case the Plushie Quest asks for one next week, too.




We'd also like to introduce five new Plushies funded by @Kamisheru14! The Aries Plush, Aquarius Plush, Libra Plush, Cancer Plush, and Leo Plush are a group of snuggly friends that'll put some huge smiles on your Pets' faces! You can buy them at the Plushie Palace or receive them after completing a Book Quest. Bear in mind that the Plushie Quest will also add them to their request list next week!



Looks like Samuel needs a hand building up his Plushie collection! From today until Sunday, December 10th at 23:59:59 IcePets Time, the Plushie Quest will be doubled! That means you'll get twice as many questing opportunities and twice as many prizes. If you're not familiar with this Quest or just need some help preparing, we recommend picking up a Plushie Quest Request List before you start.
