Happy Thursday Amaretto! Today I wanted to shine the spotlight on something that can be lots of fun of fun while you are waiting on those bundles to drop. Racing!!! That’s right you can race your Amaretto horses or train them just for fun to increase their speed and stamina traits. Remember your horse must have the racing traits first before you can train them. Now let me include all the pertinent information you’ll need to begin training or racing your horses.
~~~~~THE HUD~~~~~
1.) Can only connect one horse at a time to the hud.
2.) Can only wear one hud at a time.
~~~~~THE STATS~~~~~
ONLY NEW STARTERS WILL CARRY THE HIDDEN RACING TRAIT TO PASS ON TO NEWER GENERATIONS. (Is not breed or coat dependent).
***SPEED***
Speed = The Sprinting speed of a horse.
Speed is ranked using the following Class system:
S = 3x Avie Run Speed (ARS) {Highest Possible Class} 50 minutes of training time
A = 2.5x ARS 45 minutes of training time
B = 2x ARS 40 minutes of training time
C = 1.5x ARS 35 minutes of training time
D = ARS {Lowest Possible Class}30 minutes of training time
Class D is where horses start
Classes S,A,B,C, and D are trainable and passable
***STAMINA***
Stamina = The amount of time a horse can sprint without recharging
Stamina is ranked using the following Class system:
S = 50s of sprinting and 50 minutes of training time
A = 45s of sprinting and 45 minutes of training time
B = 40s of sprinting and 40 minutes of training time
C = 35s of sprinting and 35 minutes of training time
D = 30s of sprinting and 30 minutes of training time
Class D is where horses start
Classes S,A,B,C, and D are trainable and passable
***XP***
XP is gained through training your horse in a given field (speed or stamina) to move from one class to the next you must train from 0% to 100% in the current Class of that field.
XP Gains as follows:
Class D gains XP @ .5% per minute of training
Class C gains XP @ .4% per minute of training
Class B Gains XP @ .3% per minute of training
Class A Gains XP @ .1% per minute of training
Class D is where horses start
Classes S,A,B,C, and D are trainable and passable
***BREEDING***
Offspring of horses with the racing trait have a chance to receive the racing trait of their parents.
The Racing traits come from breeding “Starter Coats” together or one starter with any other horse.
Please note that the Racing trait CAN be passed on.
When the Racing traits pass they can pass as the same class, one class higher, one class lower or even two class’s lowers.
Remember riding your horses boosts not only their happiness but yours as well!
If you need a place to race or train your horses you are always welcome to use the Amaretto Racetrack at Boomtown. This slurl will take you to the racetrack all you need to bring are your horses and your friends and there will be fun had by all!
