BURNOUT IS DEFEATED! PLUS, LAST CHANCE FOR FALL FESTIVAL ITEMS

Last Chance for Fall Festival Items
This is your last chance to get all Fall Festival items before they vanish! This includes Limited-Edition Outfits, Seasonal Shop purchases, Seasonal Edition Skins and Hair Colors, and yes, even Spooky Hatching Potions. Grab them all while you still can!

World Boss: Burnout is Defeated!
Burnout has been defeated! All Habiticans have received rewards, including a phoenix pet and mount, assorted candies, and the Savior of the Flourishing Fields achievement. Well done! Here's how it happened:

With a great, soft sigh, Burnout slowly releases the ardent energy that was fueling its fire. As the monster curls quietly into ashes, its stolen energy shimmers through the air, rejuvenating the Exhaust Spirits and returning them to their true forms.

Ian, Daniel, and the Seasonal Sorceress cheer as Habiticans rush to greet them, and all the missing citizens of the Flourishing Fields embrace their friends and families. The final Exhaust Spirit transforms into the Joyful Reaper herself!

"Look!" whispers @Baconsaur, as the ashes begin to glitter. Slowly, they resolve into hundreds of shining phoenixes!

One of glowing birds alights on the Joyful Reaper's skeletal arm, and she grins at it. "It has been a long time since I've had the exquisite privilege to behold a phoenix in the Flourishing Fields," she says. "Although given recent occurrences, I must say, this is highly thematically appropriate!"

Her tone sobers, although (naturally) her grin remains. "We're known for being hard-working here, but we are also known for our feasts and festivities. Rather ironic, I suppose, that as we strove to plan a spectacular party, we refused to permit ourselves any time for fun. We certainly won't make the same mistake twice!"

She claps her hands. "Now - let's celebrate!" by Lemoness, Baconsaur, Aiseant, and SabreCat

HAPPY HABITOWEEN! MONSTER NPCS, AND LAST CHANCE FOR ALL FALL FESTIVAL ITEMS

Last Chance for Horned Goblin Set
Reminder: this is the final day to subscribe and receive the Horned Goblin Item Set! If you want the Goblin Horns or the Goblin Tail, now's the time!

Thanks so much for your supporting the site -- you're helping us keep Habitica alive.

Happy Habitoween!
Burnout is nearly defeated, so what could be a better way to speed the celebration than to have some fun? In honor of Habitoween and defiance of the looming threat, all of the remaining NPCs have dressed up as monsters from the Flourishing Fields! Be sure to visit them on the site to admire their outfits. If only the three Exhaust Spirits could join them...

10/27/2015
BURNOUT STRIKES AGAIN! PLUS, SPOOKY POTIONS VANISHING SOON

World Boss: Burnout Uses Exhaust Strike!
Many Habiticans have been hiding from Burnout in the Tavern, but no longer! With a screeching howl, Burnout rakes the Tavern with its white-hot hands. As the Tavern patrons flee, Daniel is caught in Burnout's grip, and transforms into an Exhaust Spirit right in front of you!

This hot-headed horror has gone on for too long. Don't give up... we're so close to vanquishing Burnout for once and for all!

Late to the fight? Learn about Burnout and how to defeat World Bosses here.

Spooky Potions Vanishing Soon
If you're hoping to collect all the Spooky Pets, be sure to do it soon. The Spooky Hatching Potions will disappear from the Market on November 1st!

If you purchase Spooky Hatching Potions before November 1st but don't have a chance to use them, they will remain in your inventory. Be sure to stock up now, or you'll have to wait a whole year for them to return!

October Subscriber Item: Horned Goblin!
The October Subscriber Item has been revealed: the Horned Goblin Set! All October subscribers will receive the Goblin Horns and the Goblin Tail. You still have four days to subscribe and receive the item set! Thank you so much for your support - we really do rely on you to keep Habitica free to use and running smoothly.

To-Do Sorting Fix
To-dos will now stay sorted when you drag and drop them! Often, To-Dos used to change their order unless you cleared your completed To-Dos on a regular basis. That should no longer be a problem. by ikadzuchi and Alys

World Boss: Burnout Uses Exhaust Strike
Ahh!!! Our incomplete Dailies have fed the flames of Burnout, and now it has enough energy to strike again! It lets loose a gout of spectral flame that sears the Seasonal Shop. You're horrified to see that the cheery Seasonal Sorceress has been transformed into a sorrowful Exhaust Spirit!

We have to rescue our NPCs! Hurry, Habiticans, complete your tasks and defeat Burnout before it strikes for a third time!

Late to the fight? Learn about Burnout and how to defeat World Bosses here.

10/14/2015
JACK O'LANTERN PETS AND MOUNTS! WORLD BOSS EXHAUST STRIKE!

Jack O'Lantern Pets and Mounts
The Flourishing Fields are full of cute carved pumpkins - and it looks like one has followed you home! It must be frightened of Burnout and looking for an adventurer to protect it.

Those of you who weren't around last Fall Festival have received a pet Jack-O-Lantern, and those of you who got one last year have received a Jack-O-Lantern Mount! Happy Fall Festival. by Lemoness

World Boss: Burnout Uses Exhaust Strike!
Oh no! Despite our best efforts, we've let some Dailies get away from us, and now Burnout is inflamed with energy! With a crackling snarl, it engulfs Ian the Quest Master in a surge of spectral fire. As fallen quest scrolls smolder, the smoke clears, and you see that Ian has been drained of energy and turned into a drifting Exhaust Spirit!

Only defeating Burnout can break the spell and save our beloved Quest Master. Let's keep our Dailies in check and defeat this monster before it attacks again!

WORLD BOSS REVEALED: BURNOUT!

Burnout, Scourge of the Flourishing Fields
It is well past midnight, still and stiflingly hot, when Redphoenix and scout captain Kiwibot abruptly burst through the city gates. "We need to evacuate all the wooden buildings!" Redphoenix shouts. "Hurry!"

Kiwibot grips the wall as she catches her breath."It's draining people and turning them into Exhaust Spirits! That's why everything was delayed. That's where the missing people have gone. It's been stealing their energy!"

"'It'?'" asks Lemoness.

And then the heat takes form.

It rises from the earth in a billowing, twisting mass, and the air chokes with the scent of smoke and sulphur. Flames lick across the molten ground and contort into limbs, writhing to horrific heights. Smoldering eyes snap open, and the creature lets out a deep and crackling cackle.

Kiwibot whispers a single word.

"Burnout."

Quickly, Habiticans, we have to save the Flourishing Fields from incineration! All of us will battle this World Boss together by completing tasks, but it won't attack us individually. However, the more Dailies we skip, the closer we get to triggering its fearsome Exhaust Strike, which will target our NPCs!

Knowing your enemy is the first step to defeating it. Read more about World Bosses here.

by Lemoness

Fall Plot-Line Continues
Although we are now well into autumn, the Flourishing Fields are locked in a sweltering heat wave. The candies grow sticky in the sun, and the Spooky Pets lie panting in the shade. But this is minor news compared to the calamity that has just occurred.

The Joyful Reaper is gone.

The citizens of the Flourishing Fields are working frantically to find their lost ruler, but many of their search parties have not returned. Those few that do make it back are empty-handed. Worse yet, they report frightening hordes of spirits drifting at the edges of the Fields.

Redphoenix grimly gathers her scouts. "If these spirits are a threat, we need to face them directly," she says. "There's no point in procrastination." Without fuss or fanfare, they set off into the night.

10/1/2015
SPOOKY HATCHING POTION; NEW ITEMS IN THE ENCHANTED ARMOIRE

Fall Plot-Line Continues
In general, we've all been enjoying the Flourishing Fields. Habiticans are posing in fun costumes, taking pictures of the orange-and-black wildlife, and casting Spooky Sparkles on each other.

Unfortunately, there does seem to be a serious problem with production for the first time in the history of the Fields. Deadlines are being missed. Shipments are not arriving. As you walk down the street, you overhear worried whispers among the citizens, speculating on the cause.

Some blame the unseasonal heat wave that has begun in the past few days. Others point to the difficulty of the tasks, and their ever-increasing quantity. And a few people -- just a few -- murmur that some of the hardest-working citizens have been disappearing, one by one, leaving their obligations abandoned. But surely that is nothing more than rumor?

Fall Festival Plot-Line Continues
Last minute preparations for the Fall Festival are underway! Lemoness has been bustling about with tomes of potion-brewing, and conferring with the artisans in cheerful conspiracy. SabreCat has been seen in the smithy, toiling on projects that he has loudly announced to be "very hush-hush." Even the elusive Royal Chancellor, Redphoenix, has taken a break from sending Boring Business Letters to roast marshmallows outside the Tavern. Everyone has happily gathered around her little campfire, which she is feeding with a steady supply of envelopes.

Only one thing has disrupted the anticipation. You catch Lemoness frowning as she reads a message attached to the latest shipment from the Flourishing Fields.

"They're apologizing for not sending as many pumpkins as they promised, due to an 'unanticipated setback,'" she explains. "There's no need for them to be sorry, though -- they've sent us hundreds already! They said the same thing last week about the candy vegetable harvest. I told the Joyful Reaper not to worry about it, but she just promises to work harder."

Well, soon the Festival will launch, and they'll be able to take a break. Nothing to be concerned about!

Fall Plot-Line Begins
Lady Lemoness has tacked a notice to the Seasonal Shop:

"This year, the Flourishing Fields have agreed to host our annual Fall Festival! It will launch very close to the equinox, so get excited.

For those of you who are less familiar with our geography, the Flourishing Fields are the most productive area of Habitica. The people living there are among the most hard-working, heroic, and happy Habiticans in the realm. (Please don't be deceived by their overwhelming fondness for orange and black.)

Of course, nobody works harder than their ruler, the Joyful Reaper, who is well-known for her sweet heart (and sweet tooth)! Since the Fields are extremely fertile, the Joyful Reaper and her citizens are also famous for throwing fabulous feasts. We're in for a treat!"

Well, it certainly sounds like it! With such a diligent group planning the party, the Festival is sure to occur without any kind of unforeseeable calamity. Hip, hip, hooray!

iOS Update and iPad App
There’s a new iOS update! One of our awesome open-source contributors, Shadallark, has made our Habitica iOS app Universal so that it natively supports iPads. Enjoy all the new space for your tasks! We've also fixed several bugs, and excellent contributor kylefox has added a search bar.

If you like the direction that we’ve been taking the app, please consider leaving us a review. It means a lot to us :) Questions? Concerns? Don't hesitate to email [mailto:mobile@habitica.com mobile@habitica.com] and we will happily help you!

This is an example of our fantastic open-source community at work - since our developers are spending all their time on the Android app, it would have been a long while before we could develop an iPad version if it weren’t for our excellent volunteers!

Speaking of which, we are now accepting translations for the iOS app on Transifex here. If you speak another language, we’d love your help!

Gryphon Contest Winner
After sorting through over 1600 entries, we finally have a name for our Royal Purple Gryphon: MELIOR! "Melior" is Latin for "better," because Habitica is a place where everyone is striving to become better at their goals in their quest to improve their lives.

The name "Melior" was submitted by awesome user NobleTheSecond, who has received their prize. Congratulations! A secondary prize has also been awarded to TangyDragonBBQ, who independently submitted a slightly different variant of that name.

Thank you so much to everyone who submitted names! They were very well-thought-out and very entertaining, and it was extremely difficult for the staff to make a decision. We hope you will join with us in welcoming Melior into the Habitica family!

HABITICA NAMING DAY AND LAST CHANCE FOR SUMMER SPLASH

Habitica Naming Day!
It's finally here! HabitRPG has become Habitica. Your accounts should still stay exactly the same and work normally, just with some of the names and references changed. (For example, habitrpg.com now redirects to habitica.com.)

In honor of the first annual Habitica Naming Day, we've given everyone an achievement, as well as some awesome treats...

by cheerskevin, Lemoness, and SabreCat

Our new logo features a Gryphon, and now, so does your stable! We've given everyone a Royal Purple Gryphon Mount, under Inventory > Mounts.

HABITICA NAMING DAY ON JULY 31ST!

Habitica Naming Day is July 31st!
We are pleased to announce that the final day of the Summer Splash Festival, July 31st, will be the inaugural Habitica Naming Day! On this day, HabitRPG will officially become Habitica. Our old name was unfortunately very confusing to people ("HabitZPR? HabitGRG?"), so we've decided to name our app and website after the land of Habitica, where all these adventures take place.

We will be celebrating with some fun surprises, so get excited! What will change?

In almost all cases, your accounts will still stay exactly the same and work normally! Only some of the names and references will be different. Here is a list of the changes:

The URL will be changed from habitrpg.com to habitica.com for all links, and habitrpg.com will automatically redirect to habitica.com. All in-game references to HabitRPG will become references to Habitica. The HabitRPG chest logo will change to the new Habitica logo. Our affiliated sites, such as the Wiki, Trello, Twitter, etc. will use the new Habitica name. We don't anticipate any issues with third-party tools, but we will be actively working with developers to help them make any necessary updates. You can help us by reporting broken third-party tools at Help -> Report a Bug. When will it change?

Changing our name is a pretty enormous task, so it won't all happen in an instant! Some changes may start switching over slightly before the 31st, and some may take slightly longer, but the majority of the changes and all of the celebration will take place on July 31st. Thank you for being patient with us! More questions?

If you have any more questions, drop by the Newbies Guild and we'll be happy to answer them!

Gold-Purchasable Quest Line: Dilatory Distress
We've moved the quests to their own separate page, and added a new category: GOLD PURCHASABLE QUESTS!

As time goes on, we'll be adding more gold-purchasable quests. Dilatory Distress is not a limited-edition quest line, so you have plenty of time to save up!

NEW iOS APP: HABITICA!

We are proud to announce the beta release of our new native iOS app: Habitica! It features an all-new interface, smoother performance, reminders to complete Dailies, and tons of features including skills and better party chat! Click here to down load it - It's a new app, not an upgrade of the clunky old one.

This is a beta release, so please report any issues using the in-app Send Feedback and Report a Bug buttons, under Menu > About. The repository is open source, so anyone can jump in and help out.

Finally, if you like what we're doing with the app, please consider leaving us a review! We'd really appreciate it.

by Viirus

What about Android?
We are hard at work on the native Android app as we speak! It's coming along very well. We will announce as soon as it is ready to download, never fear.

Why Habitica?
Habitica is the land where HabitRPG takes place - a land where players ride dragons and slay Dailies. Plus, it's now the name of the mobile app. Soon, it will also be the name of the site!

The decision to switch from HabitRPG to Habitica is a big one, and we've been talking it over for a long time. We've gotten feedback since the beginning that it was confusing, especially for the many people who aren't familiar with the acronym. ("HabitPGR? HabitRZG? What was your name again?") We feel that "Habitica" keeps the fantasy flair without the confusing abbreviation, so it's the best of both realms.

So far, habitica.com redirects to habitrpg.com, and it's the name of the native mobile apps. Look forward to an upcoming announcement of the switchover date, when we will be ringing in the name change with our inaugural Habitica Day celebration!

REPEATING TASKS, START DATE, AND MOBILE APP UPDATES!

by Blade and fallenpanda

New Repeat Option for Dailies
Dailies now have a new Advanced Option: Repeat Every X Days. You've wanted this feature for a long time, and it's finally here!

First, please note that this new option is OPT-IN only. We won't make any changes to your preexisting Dailies without you knowing it. We wouldn't do that!

That being said, here are the new features:

Repeating Tasks
Use the "Every X Days" function under Dailies Advanced Options to create tasks that repeat after a certain number of days have passed, whether every 2 days, every 15 days, every 30 days... You choose the number that works for you!

These Dailies are only due on those given dates. Need to pay your rent every 30 days? Take medicine every other day? Water your plants every 4 days? No longer a problem.

Start Date
Dailies now have a Start Date. They will not be due before this date. This means that if you want to add a new Daily while you're thinking about it, but not have it be due until later, you can achieve that by setting a future Start Date!

Mobile App Updates
New Android and iOS updates are available to support this feature. Please, update your apps before using it, or the new repeating Dailies will not display normally on the mobile apps!

Other Notes
For a short period of time, the Data Display Tool will not be able to calculate damage correctly for Repeat Every X Dailies. We'll get that updated very soon so that it will be accurate again!

If you still have questions about Repeat Every X Dailies, don't hesitate to ask in the Newbies Guild!

New Animal Skins and Accessories Available!
They say that owners resemble their pets, and now that's truer than ever for Habiticans! The Animal Skin Set and Animal Accessory Set are now available in the Customization shop. Time to let your avatar walk on the wild side.

by Painter de Cluster and SabreCat

Inn Improvements
Now even when you Rest in the Inn, your Dailies will refresh each day. Important note: your Dailies still do NOT hurt you while you're in the Inn. We wouldn't do that to you!

It used to be that the Resting in the Inn froze all your Dailies so that they wouldn't refresh the next day - even for important Dailies like "take medicine" or "feed pets." This was very frustrating to a lot of users who relied on these features, even during periods of time when they needed to rest in the Inn for finals, illness, vacation, etc.

Now if you're in a situation, for example finals period, where you don't have the time or energy to do most of your Dailies, you can still complete some of them every day while Resting in the Inn. It's much more flexible and convenient!

If you're in a quest, you still won't deal damage/collect items until you check out of the Inn, and your Dailies will not damage your party members, but you can still be injured by a Boss if your Party mates skip their own Dailies. You also still do not gain Mana overnight until you check out of the Inn. If you have any questions about how Resting in the Inn works, be sure to ask in the Newbies Guild!

Skills Rebalancing

Skills Rebalancing
After over a year's worth of complaints on Trello and countless bug reports on Github, and after almost five months of dedicated debating, coding, and testing, we have finally rolled out an overhaul of the skills and mana system. Thank you so much to everyone who contributed opinions, time, and effort! Here's what happened:

HABITS DAMAGE BOSSES
Now it's even easier to damage a Boss without skills! It was definitely high time that HabitRPG counted Habits towards battles. We were not living up to our name.

MANA DIRECTLY LINKED TO PROGRESS
Mana was pretty broken: you gained it overnight no matter what you'd done the day before, and it was only linked to To-Dos. This meant that using skills was pretty detached from how well you were doing in your real life, which defeated the purpose of the game!

Now you can gain Mana from Dailies and positive Habits as well as To-Dos! You still gain Mana overnight, but how much you gain depends on how many of your Dailies you did.

You can also lose Mana by hitting negative Habits. Yikes! Better not indulge...

SKILLS STRENGTHENED AND WEAKENED
Some notoriously overpowered skills have been weakened, like Backstab (which often granted over 1000GP per cast), Burst of Flames (which allowed you to 1-hit KO most bosses regardless of how much or how little you'd done that day), and Valorous Presence (which caused the notorious "I checked off one Daily and gained 997 levels" bug reports).

Some painfully UNDERpowered skills have been strengthened, such as Tools of the Trade and Searing Brightness. We think you'll like these much better now!

For a full description of what changed, check out this blog post.

GIVING FEEDBACK
We understand that these changes may be disruptive to some of you. We're sorry! We hope that with time, you will find them to be a drastic improvement. We will be waiting two weeks (so that everyone can get used to the new system), and then on May 15th will open up a new Trello card for comments and feedback.

For those of you who want to reallocate stats now that you have the new system, please post your User ID in this Github ticket. (Your UUID is found under Settings > API; do NOT post your API Token.) That ticket is also being used to debate a possibility to make it so that reallocating stats does not cost gems. If that's a feature you would like (or would hate), definitely drop by that ticket and let us know!

by Alys, Verabird, brandonjreid, ShilohT, betaveros, SabreCat, chimericdream, and everyone who commented with feedback on Trello and Github. You guys are great!

These hair colors may remind some of you of the Pastel Hair Colors that were available last spring. The Pastel Hair Colors have been retired in favor of the similar Seasonal Edition Shimmer Hair Colors. Read more about the difference between Seasonal and Limited Edition items here!

Explication de l'indisponibilité (et des avatars endormis)
Comme la plupart d'entre vous l'a probablement constaté, le site était inaccessible hier. Un grand nombre de personnes venant d'Imgur se sont inscrites en même temps et ont ce-faisant aplati les serveurs. Il s'est avéré compliqué de redémarrer les serveurs. Vous pouvez lire les détails techniques sur le ticket GitHub. Nous sommes désolés pour toute cette frustration !

A environ minuit (PST), nous avons envoyéchaque personne active se reposer à l'auberge, pour "geler leurs comptes" afin que les quotidiennes non réalisées ne provoquent pas de dégâts indus, avec l'espoir que cela éviterait des morts non méritées. Voilà pourquoi vous dormez ! Pour sortir de l'Auberge, rendez vous sur Social > Tavern > Sortir de l'auberge.

Si vous êtes morts avant que l'on vous mette à l'auberge, vous pouvez restaurer vos combo dans l'édition des tâches, et toutes vos autres statistiques dans Paramètres > Site > Corriger les valeurs du personnage. Vous devriez pouvoir racheter tous vos objets manquants dans la colonne Récompense. Si vous ne le pouvez pas, veuillez l'indiquer dans Soclial > Taverne et une personne de l'équipe de modération vous aidera !

Merci à celles et ceux qui ont répondu aux question sur les réseaux sociaux et dans les discussions, et à celles et ceux qui nous ont envoyé des messages pendant que l'on essayait de sauver le site. Vous êtes incroyables, et nous nous sentons vraiment en veine d'avoir une communauté si attentionnée et positive.

Et bienvenue aux personnes venant d'Imgur ! Nous sommes désolés que votre premier jour soit si difficile, mais nous avons hâte de vous connaître. Il y a une guilde Camp Imgur que vous pourriez apprécié.

Victoire ! L'Abominable Monstressé est vaincu !
Nous avons réussi ! Avec une dernière attaque, l'Abominable Monstressé se dissipe en un nuage de neige. Nos animaux et nos PNJ sont de nouveaux saufs !

Sabrecat parle doucement à un petit tigre à dents de sabre. "S'il te plait, retrouve les habitants de Stoïcalme et ramène les chez nous", dit-il. Plusieurs heures plus tard, le tigre à dents de sabre revient, avec un troupeau de chevaucheurs mammouth le suivant. Vous reconnaissez en tête Lady Glaciate, la dirigeante de Stoïcalme.

"Puissants habiticiens et habiticiennes," dit-elle, "Mes citoyens et moi-même vous devons nos remerciements, et nos excuses sincères. Afin de protéger nos steppes du tourment, nous avions secrètement banni toute forme de stresse dans les montagnes gelées. Nous n'avions pas idée qu'au fil des générations, il s'accumulerait pour former le Monstressé que vous avez vu ! Lorsqu'il se réveilla, il nous enferma dans les montagnes, et chargea nos précieux animaux." Son regard triste suit les chutes de neige. "Nous avons mis tout le monde en danger avec cette folie. Soyez assurés qu'à l'avenir, nous viendrons vous voir avec nos problèmes avant que nos problèmes ne vous tombent dessus."

Elle se tourne vers @Baconsaur qui joue avec des bébé mammouths. "Nous vous avons apporté à vos animaux une offrande de nourriture pour nous excuser de les avoir effrayé, et comme symbole de notre confiance, nous vous laisserons quelques familiers et montures.Nous savons que vous prendrez bien soin d'eux.

Troisième coup de stress !
Le boss mondial utilise sa Frappe de stress pour la troisième fois. Justin le guide essaye de distraire le Monstressé en courant autour de ses chevilles, en hurlant des astuces de productivité ! L'Abominable Monstressé piétine comme un fou mais on dirait que la bête fatigue vraiment. Je doute qu'elle ait assez d'énergie pour une autre frappe. N'abandonnez pas ... Nous sommes si prêts de l'achever ! Les quotidiennes complétées ainsi que les tâches à faire réalisées infligent des dégâts au boss mondial ! Seuls les comptes actifs et ne se reposant pas à l'auberge auront leurs quotidiennes prises en compte.

par Lemoness, Kiwibot, et SabreCat

Succès Maître des Montures et Triple Bingo

Le Monstressé lance attaque désespérée
On y est presque ! Avec diligence et avec nos quotidiennes, nous avons descendu la santé de la bête à seulement 500K ! La créature rugit et s'agite de désespoir, la rage le consumant de plus en plus. Le monstre --- AHHH ! --- nous secoue, moi et Matt, dans tous les sens, et fait s'élever une tempête de neige qui la rend plus difficile à toucher.

Nous devons redoubler d'efforts, mais courage - c'est un signe que le Monstressé sait qu'il est presque vaincu ! N'abandonnez pas ! S'il vous plait ?

Le Monstressé augmente sa rage et sa défense. Les quotidiennes complétées ainsi que les tâches à faire réalisées infligent des dégâts au boss mondial ! Seuls les comptes actifs et ne se reposant pas à l'auberge auront leurs quotidiennes prises en compte.

par Lemoness, Kiwibot, et SabreCat

Deuxième coup de stress
AHHHHHHHH !!!!! IL M'A ATTRAPE !!!!!

Oh, pourquoi n'avez vous pas réalisé vos quotidiennes ?!

Le boss mondial lance un nouveau coup de stress, et cette fois, c'est moi, Bailey, qu'il attaque ! Pour me sauver ainsi que les autres PNJ, complétez vos quotidiennes et vos tâches à faire pour infliger des dégâts au boss mondial ! Les quotidiennes ratées remplissent sa barre de coup de stress. Lorsque la barre de coup de stress est pleine, le boss mondial attaquera un PNJ. Un boss mondial ne vous infligera jamais de dégâts d'aucune manière. Seuls les comptes actifs et ne se reposant pas à l'auberge auront leurs quotidiennes prises en compte.

par Lemoness, Kiwibot, et SabreCat

Quête de familier tyrannosaure
Il y a maintenant deux nouvelles quêtes de familier au Marché: Le Roi des Dinosaures et le Dinosaure Exhumé! Elles donnent toutes deux les mêmes récompenses, parmi lesquelles les œufs de tyrannosaures. La différence est que le "Roi de Dinosaures" est un quête de familier normale, comme toutes les autres, alors que le "Dinosaure Exhumé" a moins de PS - mais a aussi une barre de rage (comme les boss mondiaux) qui lui permet de guérir si vous manquez trop de quotidiennes. Les deux boss attaqueront quand même votre équipe selon le nombre de quotidiennes incomplètes. Les utilisateurs et utilisatrices pourront acheter des œufs de tyrannosaure après avoir vaincu l'un des boss deux fois ou les deux boss une fois.

Amusez vous bien!

Premier coup de stress!
Boss mondial: premier coup de stress!

Le boss mondial a utilisé son premier coup de Stress dans la taverne.

Malgré tous nos efforts, nous avons laissé quelques quotidiennes nous échapper, et leur couleur rouge sombre a rendu l'Abominable Monstressé furieux, et lui a fait regagner une partie de sa santé ! L'horrible créature lorgne du côté de l'étable, mais Matt le maître des bêtes s'interpose héroïquement pour protéger les familiers et les montures. Le Monstressé empoigne Matt, mais au moins il est distrait pour le moment.

Les quotidiennes complétées ainsi que les tâches à faire réalisées infligent des dégâts au boss mondial ! Les quotidiennes ratées remplissent sa barre de Frappe de stress. Lorsque la barre de frappe de stress est pleine, le boss mondial attaquera un PNJ. Un boss mondial ne vous infligera jamais de dégâts d'aucune manière. Seuls les comptes actifs et ne se reposant pas à l'auberge auront leurs quotidiennes prises en compte.

par Lemoness, Kiwibot, et SabreCat

Boss Mondial: L'abominable Monstressé!


Un nouveau boss mondial est apparu à la Taverne! Toutes les Quotidiennes et À Faire complétés des Habiticien·ne·s causeront des dégâts au Boss Mondial. Les Quotidiennes incomplètes remplissent la barre de stress du boss. Lorsque celle-ci est pleine, le boss attaquera un PNJ. Un Boss Mondial ne cause jamais de dégâts aux joueur·euse·s individuel·le·s ou à leurs comptes de quelque manière que ce soit. Seules les Quotidiennes incomplètes des comptes actifs qui ne se reposent pas à l'Auberge sont comptées. Continuez à lire pour les détails!

Intrigue d'Hiver: L'abominable Monstressé attaque!
La première chose que nous entendons sont les pas, lents et plus retentissant que la cavalcade. Les uns après les autres, chaque habitant et chaque habitante d'Habitica regarde au dehors, et les mots nous manquent

Nous avions déjà tous vu des Monstressés auparavant - de petite créatures vicieuses qui attaquent dans les moments difficiles. Mais ça ? Il est plus grand que les bâtiments, avec des paluches qui pourraient aisément écraser un dragon. Le gel se répand de sa fourrure crasseuse, et lorsqu'il rugit, la glace se détache des toits de nos maisons. Un monstre de cette magnitude n'a jamais été mentionné en dehors des vieilles légendes.

"Attention, tout le monde !", crie SabreCat. "Barricadez vous à l'intérieur - il s'agit de l'abominable Monstressé !"

"Cette chose doit avoir émergé de centaines d'années de stress !" dit Kiwibot en s'enfermant à double tour dans la taverne et en calfeutrant les fenêtres.

"Les Steppes Stoïcalmes", dit Lemoness, le visage sombre. "Pendant tout ce temps, nous les pensions placides et calmes, mais elles ont du emmagasiner le stress quelque part en secret. A travers les générations, cela a évolué en ... ceci, et la bête est maintenant libre, et les a attaqué, tout comme nous !"

Il n'y a qu'un moyen de battre un Monstressé, abominable ou non, et c'est de l'attaquer avec nos quotidiennes terminées et nos tâches à faire ! Rassemblons nous et combattons ce terrible ennemi - mais faites attention à ne pas trainer sur vos tâches, ou nos quotidiennes non remplies pourraient le rendre si furieux qu'il lancerait des attaques terribles... par Lemoness, Kiwibot, et SabreCat

Tester une résolution pour le bug du Cron
Aujourd'hui, nous allons tester une résolution probable pour un bug qui fait que les Quotidiennes ne se remettent parfois pas à zéro le jour suivant. C'est un grand changement, nous serons donc d'autant plus attentifs sur le site pour nous assurer que cette correction ne détruit rien sur son passage. Si vous remarquez un problème avec votre début de journée ou vos quotidiennes se remettant à zéro dans les jours à venir, veuillez nous le signaler immédiatement sur GitHub. Merci!

Ajustement du format des dates
Il y a une nouvelle option dans les paramètres qui vous permet d'ajuster le format de la date. Vous pouvez maintenant lister les dates comme MM/JJ/AAAA, JJ/MM/AAAA ou AAAA/MM/JJ.

L'intrigue d'hiver continue
Après un Nouvel An festif, tout le monde se réveille avec un tremblement qui fait vibrer leur Chapeaux de fête absurdes. Courant à la fenêtre, ils découvrent... Une cavalcade ?

Un gigantesque troupeau de mammouths charge devant eux, suivis de tigres à dents de sabre rugissant et de dinosaures qui fondent de toutes leurs plumes et écailles à toute vitesse. Chacun regarde ça, bouche bée, mais avant que qui que ce soit puisse réagir, la débandade a traversé Habit City et s'en enfuit au loin, ne laissant que des marque de pattes dans la neige, un vent rugissant, et quelques cartes de nouvelle année piétinées.

Il est recommandé à tout le monde de rester calme et de ne pas sombrer dans le stress pendant cette période confuse et difficile. Nous avons envoyé SabreCat après les animaux effrayés des steppes de Stoïkalm, et il fait de son mieux pour les calmer et les ramener à l'abri dans les étables. Nous espérons avoir une explication à cette étrangeté bientôt. En attendant, gardez tous vos familiers et toutes vos montures à l'intérieur.
