"Well, hi there!" Lahja says, sounding a bit winded as they carefully adjusted their pile of gifts. "I am happy to announce the Gift Exchange is now open for Aurestal!

"You may request any two Items, be it an elusive Plush or a fresh cup of coffee. If you're lucky, another Terrafrostian will grant your wish! Don't worry -- the Gift Exchange is completely anonymous, for both the giftee and gifter."

"If you aren't so lucky, don't be gloomy just yet! After three days, you may change any unfulfilled request to another Item -- but you can only do this once, so think carefully about what you ask for."



"I will be sending trophies to any Terrafrostian that grants another's wish -- I appreciate your generosity, and so does everyone else!"

"Oh! Do keep in mind the Exchange is only open for the rest of the year, meaning you have until December 31st, 23:59:59 IcePets Time to request and grant wishes. Happy Aurestal!"

More new features!

Today we have Crafting, Salvaging, Gathering and other quests, and even a new shop!

There is a lot to cover, but I will try to keep it to the point. Lets dive in!




Crafting

Crafting recipes using tags have been temporarily disabled due to a bug.
Everything should be good to go now

• Crafting is a way to create new items.
  
  
• You input up to 4 items, and if your recipe is successful, gain something new!
  
  
• Successful recipes are learned forever, so you can always craft them again with ease.
  
  
• If your recipe is incorrect, your items might be consumed unless you purchase the Experimental Insurance for 5,000pp.
  
  
• Crafting only allows you to input valid crafting items, so if an item isn't used in a recipe, it simply wont show up. This is to protect your items that aren't meant to be crafted with!

Salvaging

• Some items have been added to salvage pools where you might reclaim scrap from them.
  
  
• Items up for salvage may not always give scrap, but scrap is a useful material to have for crafting.
  
  
• Your special TE items will never be part of the salvage system-- they are safe!

[ Click here for Salvaging ]

Gathering

• Gathering is done via quests, but these quests are repeatable all day long if you wish.
  
  
• The Flowering Field and Babbling Brook have a 5 minute timeout when you successfully complete them. All other gathering quests have no limits!
  
  
• There are 8 gathering areas in total, divided into 4 focused on foraging, and 4 focused on mining.
  
  
• Each area requires a more complicated to obtain/craft item, and progress in difficulty through 4 stages.

More New Quests!

• There are 3 new quests focused on using the new materials!
  
  
• These new quests will help teach you recipes if you pay attention to what they have to say when you are successful!

1. Gourmet Cooking
   
   
   • Asks for crafted gourmet foods
     
   • Gives pence and hints for cooking recipes.

New Shop

• Whisker sells some very important crafting materials!
  
  
• Some of these materials are special "Crafting Tools" that wont ever be consumed while crafting. Some examples are the Basic Cookware Kit, Novice Alembic, Frame Loom, and any other that says [ Crafting Tool ] in the description!
  
  
• Others, such as the blueprints, are consumed while crafting and you will want to stock up!
  
  
• Note that he also sells the Foraging Basket and Mining Pans needed to get started with gathering. :)
