    Thank you for clarifying. *That* makes sense.

    However, the coats and companions trophies are still way off. A vast majority of the coats on my account were added by myself. A vast majority of companions on my account were *also* added by myself. There's no way I have only applied ~75 special coats to horses myself, I have over 50 5th Element horses alone (these are just the ones in the proper breeding farm, I have more scattered throughout), over 40 Iris coat horses alone, and over 60 VA horses alone. I don't buy horses with those coats so these items were all applied by me some time in the past.

    My immortal breeding farm has *95 horses* in it, every single one of them with a special coat that *I applied myself*.

    Unless the trophy means that you need 150 *unique* special coats, in which case they need to update the wording because nowhere do I get that impression.
    I think it's unique coats. To reach my next old GA trophy, when I looked yesterday I needed 500 GA coats.
    500 is what it's saying I need to apply for the new trophies

    It is possible that their data only scraped what they had, which is... I think 90 days for the Item History?
    It certainly is 90 days for pass history.

    For the unique special coats, I have a stack of 30 Water elements... later this evening I'll give it a test. default smiley :p

    I don't think it's unique coats, at least for specials, when I was coating for 75 I got so many duplicates from the wanderers spirits, but they all counted towards it

  • They need to update the wording, then. The companion trophy doesn't work that way because I just tested it (gave 2 horses the same companion and it registered), so I don't see why it and the special coats trophy are worded the same.

    Thank you to everyone for the clarifications. Still not at *all* pleased with the update.

    For the order of the classic coats, in case some of y'all missed it (i definitely did! i only figured it out because i was really annoyed that they got rid of the percentages for the coats), they're in order from most common to least common (left to right, descending).

    i don't know how the other coat collections are organized (my PC struggled so much to open the RC one that i just gave up trying to understand). Knowing this does make me feel less confused (the classic coat trophies were the only ones i consulted often) but the trophies page remains incomprehensible to me so far.

    The only thing i like about this update is that the classic coats collection has a percentage because i love percentages (i used to calculate it manually) but it's a downside for all the other collections, as previous posters have pointed out...

    It's a relief that we no longer lose trophies once we earn them. Bye-bye the monthly panic that one of my horses has reached 225 rosettes so I don't lose my trophies default smiley (lol)


    hi! does this mean that we won't lose the coat trophy now if we sell the only horse we have with a certain coat?
    i've had to keep 17 random irish hunters to keep my coat collection trophy, so it'll be nice if i can finally sell some of them :')

  • Ah, since posting there were two more responses, so it looks like no one knows whether it's unique coats or not quite yet.

    I'd test out the coat trophy myself, but *I used most of my coat items last week*. I went on an item application spree. Talk about bad timing.

    I think so, but I'm not brave enough to test it out

    Collections are lost when you lose the horse.
    Trophies are not lost

    You will keep your Trophies but NOT your Collection.

    To keep and maintain a Collection you have to own every single piece of the collection.
    In the case of Irish Hunters, those are part of a collection and not of a Trophy, so you'd lose it. default smiley :)
