After several days of digging, Velya and her crew made the discovery of a generation: beneath the dry crust of Dragonhome, the Obelisk dragons shed their rocky exteriors and joined the realm as its newest modern breed.
Obelisks Unearthed
The Dustcarve Dig has concluded, and the great discovery turned out to be a brand new dragon breed created recently beneath our very feet! Thank you to everyone who participated in what we felt was a really exciting and collaborative experience. What a great way to kick off our eigth year!
New Lore: Subterranean Secrets
Discover the Earthshaker's urgent necessity for creating the Obelisk dragons. Manifested during a time of great elemental upheaval, this new breed steps out into world of Sornieth with an earthshaking divine duty to carry out.
New Modern Breed: Obelisk
With this update, Flight Rising is introducing its first modern breed in nearly six years, the Obelisk! While all participants of the Dustcarve Dig event received a Dormant Obelisk Statue (which spawns one adult Obelisk), it will be possible to purchase additional breed change scrolls in the Treasure Marketplace.
The Obelisk is an uncommon breed (possessing a 25 day breeding cooldown) that eats seafood and insects. It can breed with all other modern breeds and wear all existing apparel.
Obelisk Emoji and Vista
Obelisk Emoji and a Vista are now available. The vista can be found in the treasure marketplace
Event System
We hope everyone enjoyed the Dustcarve Dig, which was possible thanks to an entirely new event system we call Efforts. Efforts are, as you know, large sitewide campaigns that all active players can participate in to find items, turn them in, earn rewards, and even experience a mini-story together.
Dustcarve Dig was the first, but it will certainly not be the last event of this type. Now that we've developed the infrastructure for it, we can use it for new and exciting events in the future!
If you have any feedback for Dustcarve Dig itself or thoughts on improvements we can make in subsequent events, please let us know in the Suggestions forum or submit them directly to us through Contact Us using the 'Suggestions' category, and we'll be sure to take them into consideration!
