ashleagh Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I noticed this at the bottom of the stats page in the BD beta today: On the wall in the Battledome Stats Office, you notice a poster that reads, "Aethia's Ability Academy! Learn valuable spells and other battle tactics from the Battle Faerie herself! Bring your faerie blessings and your determination to start training today!" Across the front of the poster is a ribbon that says, "OPENING SOON". Do you think this means all of the previous Faerie abilities we've acquired are going to be null and void? Like many others, I spent a small fortune on bottled Faeries to unlock all the abilities for my Battle pet. I had grown rather attached to 'Burrow' and 'Sink'! I sure hope we at least get some sort of credit for that when this new 'Academy' opens, or heads will roll! What are your thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn the Human Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I also spent a sum of money on Faerie abilities and I hope that money won't "disappear". Though I play tombola and have a few in case of emergencies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Abilities are being completely revamped in the future, hence the Coming Soon notices. Old ability-related items, such as those that granted or levelled abilities, will not work. So yes, the previously acquired abilities won't work. Sorry :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaraquanEyrie Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I hope not I haven't spent overly much NP towards the battledome but that seems terribly unfair towards those who have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca~ Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 So yes, the previously acquired abilities won't work. Sorry :( Curses! I got those relatively recently. :( I thought they'd be updated, but that all of the ones previously unlocked would still be active/available, in one form or another. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must take a moment to weep for my beloved burrow :sad02: Curses! I got those relatively recently. :( I thought they'd be updated, but that all of the ones previously unlocked would still be active/available, in one form or another. :( That's exactly what I was hoping, Rebecca! TNT, I am disappoint! Perhaps they'll keep track of how many times our pets have been blessed and we can use that as like a credit towards the new abilities? I spent years gaining those! Wow, the battle strategies for DoN will seriously have to be rewritten with all these changes :O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah, the Battlepedia people are going to have a looooot of work ahead of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamppost Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I'm hoping that there will be some kind of credit for those who already had battle abilities. Nothing confirming, and it might just be a pipe dream, but still hoping! And yes, we will have a lot of work to do! But it's exciting. Being staff would be pretty pointless if we didn't have anything to do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pretty excited to see the change in the new strategies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashwee Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I wonder what will happen to the Bottled Faeries then. Guess I better go for that Bless You, Shoyru avie now juuuuust in case. :D EDIT: Error: Sorry! The Battledome is down right now and Neopets cannot gain faerie blessings. :bigeyed: Eeeep! I wonder what will become of the avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNT has said that all BD avatars wouldn't be retired, and I kind of assume that Bloyru is part of that! So I guess that the revamped abilities will be made available through the faeries. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashleagh Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 Overall, I am impressed with the BD changes. It's a little laggy at times because of the animations. I wonder if they'll introduce a low res or html version (like with the map of Neopia) for those with ancient computers :P TNT has done a good job so far. I guess I should give them the benefit of the doubt in regards to the faerie abilities! (: To all of the TDN Battlepedia team: Thank you!! Rewriting a decade or so of information is not an easy task, but we appreciate it! :D Mouseykins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
