I almost missed it! Thanks to Cheyenne from the official discord for sharing this exiting news! We just unlocked one new location in the Manor: the Parking Wars.
Before I dive into the mechanics of this new feature, let’s talk rewards!
Parking Shop
With every new feature comes new rewards and new ways to get stronger. First of all, each mount parked will provide a random selection of items over time, from gold, keys and other items you need to upgrade specific components of the game.
Lily Pad (Tier 1) rewards pickaxes, gold, speedups, lamps, magic lamp dungeon keys (Assault/Thief), divine hammers,
Quack Splash (Tier 2) rewards gold, lamp, skill coupons, pal coupons, diamond dungeon keys (Molten Ruins), random red skill coupon, random red pal coupon
Surfboard (Tier 3) rewards pickaxes, basic seeds, common fertilizer, some ores, advanced seeds, high-yield fertilizer, drills, bombs, premium seeds, some fruit offerings
Flyboard (Tier 4) rewards
Skyglider (Tier 5) rewards
Amethyst Gourd (Tier 6): unknown for now.
Magic Broom (Tier 7-8): unknown for now
Azure Feather (Tier 9-14): unknown for now
Additionally, Tier 1-3 mounts give 10 parking coins and 10 mount experience per minute of parking (up to 8h). See below.
I will come back regularly to this list as I unlock mounts and discover new rewards.
As you can see, each mount provides specific resources that will help you one way or another in Rush events (later on that).
Parking Shop - Auto Mart
New rewards would be nothing without a way to spend them! Of course we got a new shop!
The Parking Shop is your place where to spend parking coins and some of those new features are amazing! The shop contains 3 main sections:
Remodelling Guide that sells… Remodelling Guides.
Limited-Time Shroomie God Card that sells all sorts of huge buffs and speedups from instant collection of resources, increase of resource production to better speedups.
Decoration that sells ornaments for your parking.
I particularly like section 1 and 3 as those will provide a permanent boost in power!
Remodelling Guides
The Remodelling guides allow to remodel your mounts (yes, not just one!) and increase their stats. Each guide grants 2,000 mount remodelling experience that will increase the remodelling level. For instance, pushing mount Tier 1 to remodelling lvl 2 will take 300 xp, but give you an additional 8% ATK bonus, HP bonus and DEF bonus! Insane! The guides are the cheapest items in the store and one can purchase up to 5 daily.
Decorations
The other items of interest are decorations. I do not know yet how decorations will work and if there will be limitations on how many can be active at the time, but so far, it looks like you just need to unlock them and increase their level by buying duplicates.
You can explore each unlockable decoration in the dedicated Decoration tab. Each decoration seems to give a boost in ATK, HP, DEF stats as well as activate a skill for the parking. This brings hero customization to a whole new level and provide new ways to play with others! Parking-specific stats make your parking more attractive and increase the chance that others park their mounts on one of your 4 slots.
There are 5 main types of decorations: Gates, Scenes, Fence, Streetlamp and “Decoration” (unavailable). I suspect that decorations work like relics and that we can only activate one of each at a time, but let’s see. Most likely they provide a passive increase in ATK, HP, DEF stats and provide an active skill.
So far, decorations seem to provide the following types of boosts: - Gates boosts ATK during Parking Wars, or the chance and amount of rewards, experience, or coins,
Scenes boosts ATK or HP stats during Parking Wars (later on that),
Fences boosts DEF or HP stats during Parking Wars, or parking coins and remodeling points gathering, or provide protection against parking attacks,
Streetlamps boosts DEF or ATK stats during Parking Wars, or parking coins or remodeling points gathering, or increase the chance of rewards.
Parking Wars
This is a fighting game! So we obviously got MORE FIGHTING!!! Similarly to the new Dormitory feature, we can attack others stationed on a parking and prevent them from getting coins and bonuses. Successfully kicking someone out of a parking spot will reward Parking Coins!
I assume, the longer they are parked, the more coins are rewarded.
Parking Fees
Parking owners can activate and set a parking fee (0 if inactive and 5 up to 20% if active). Paying the fee will render you immune against attacks from the parking owner. However, it does not protect you against other owners who might be scouting for an easy prey. Fortunately, paying thhe fee will provide parking stat boosts (the ones provided by the decorations unlocked by this owner) that will make you stronger against other mount drivers. Additionally, losing your spot because of someone other than the owner will cancel the fee. That owner did a bad job at protecting your spot! Why should you pay?!
The fee is charged once you leave your spot (up to 8h) so you do not need to worry if you do not have the funds to pay for it. It will be deducted from what you could have gained from parking on that spot.
Attack Debuffs
That’s it! You’ve attacked your first customer! You will face karma and karma is a b****! To prevent you from molesting parking customers, the developers have added attack debuffs! For each consecutive attack, you will get a debuff and those debuffs are stackable the more you attack before the debuff timer runs out. So far I have only seen an [ATK, DEF, Pal DMG] debuff that lasts 30 min. Better not get too greedy!
