Quests & Challenges

[center][font=Futura][size=4] Most of Flight Rising is about luck, a.k.a RNG. From hatching eggs for good dragon colors, to getting just a single Bell Goat to drop from Forgotten Cave. Speaking of coliseum, how about you? Will you suffer in coliseum as well in an attempt against the odds? [/size][/font][/center] ----- [columns] [color=transparent]_______________[/color] [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/static/cms/battle_items/495.png[/img] [nextcol] [size=7][b]Welcome to Coliseum Madness![/b][/size] [/columns] [size=4] I initially wanted to make this a personal thread, but I decided if anyone wants to join and suffer together, that's also okay! [s]I intend to personally scream at coliseum every single day.[/s] The thread's description is simple. It's a challenge. Requirements: [LIST=1] [*][size=4]Set a goal within a venue. Decide whether it's your main goal or just a random, secondary* goal. [*][size=4]Set stop conditions for when to stop doing coliseum when starting a run for the day. [/LIST] [size=4]And that's it. Now as for the challenge itself: [LIST] [*][size=4]Everyday, do coliseum in the selected venue until the stop conditions are met. Note: the stop conditions are just [i]minimum requirements[/i], you're free to continue suffering on the same day in the chosen venue if you wish. [/size]*For secondary goals, you don't have to do them everyday, do them when you feel like it. [*][size=4]After every coliseum run, post the results in this thread, keep track of the days since starting the challenge. [quote=Example]Day 43, stayed in Harpy's Roost for one whole hour, neither one of the giant [i]annoying[/i] Rocs have become an available dragon friend for me. [s]COLISEUM WHY ARE YOU CRUEL[/s][/quote] [*][size=4]You can post images of some coliseum moments attached to the day as well, or keep track of notable drops that drop from coliseum that's [b]not[/b] your goal. It can be in a results post or in separate posts before the results. An example would be lamenting of how you get the same skin crate twice before getting that supposedly Rare rarity thing. [/LIST] I have the habit of counting (a rough estimate, if I lose track) the number of enemies defeated, so I will add that info. Other more popular measurements of suffering would be time taken and number of battles done. [size=4] And that's all! Now let's scream at coliseum until we get the thing we want [emoji=coliseum team size=1] My personal inspiration to start this thread: How (un)Lucky Can One Be?

Day 1

Today can be considered somewhat fortunate? Found 2 bosses in 40 enemies defeated. I could continue but I'm already tired from doing other stuff, so that's that for today.

Saving the real grinds for the next day as I warm up to Golem Workshop >.>'

Day 2

Found two different bosses within 376 enemies defeated in Golem Workshop. Much longer, much tiring. And so many Battlestones and Major Health Potions, just why are they even categorized into "Very Rare"...

Day 3

Another short run, found both variants in 42 enemies defeated. Decided not to continue because one dragon is out of breath lol
Nothing special this time...

Day 4 Painful, some Eliminate dodges and struggles. Both variant bosses and total of 127 enemies defeated, but this time I did get something! [item=Copper Filigree Gauntlets]

Day 5

135 enemies defeated in total in Golem Workshop, found both bosses again, and nothing again.

Decided to spend quite some time in Volcanic Vents, found 6 Hydras within 700 enemies defeated, which seems kinda lucky for the encounter rate. But, alas, nothing special dropped in the venue. I did get one Concentration, not helpful >.>"

Day 6 92 enemies defeated in Golem Workshop, both bosses are Frost Delvers this time. New apparel, so today's run got me something! [item=Copper Filigree Helmet] And coli decides to be... odd today. Where Rare rarity seems much rarer, and Very Rare drops seem to be more common, at least in some other venues. On the bright side of today, I reflex clicked Mire instead of the venue I wanted to go to, and in the very first battle... egg. [s]It's just, the timing has no climax in it, everything else is regular though[/s]

[b]Day 7[/b] I bolded it because this is the day coli decides I get one for now. [size=4]THANK YOU BUT I'M NOT DONE YET, GOLEM WORKSHOP![/size] [item=Frost Delver] 53 enemies later, found both variants of bosses, the second one becomes a friend. Now onwards to get the other robot. Decided to continue, 4 enemies later another Stone Borer appeared, and after that battle there's no breath left for my dragons. As a side note, I had terrible luck in another aspect. Three of my nests gave only one egg (a.k.a [b]wegged[/b]), which is supposed to be a low chance >.>" the other nests gave 2 and 3 eggs. And just before a big event / community event too...

Day 8 First battle is a boss battle... That's not a good sign. Fortunately, didn't take long at all, both bosses within 17 enemies defeated total. Not gonna be here long, got other venues to grind and things to do. Did a few of Volcanic Vents and Waterway, nothing good dropping from both. Okay maybe Volcanic Vents gets a pass with one apparel drop. [item=Weathered Scale Cuirass]
