Also, for those following the path of peace and not into hunting stuff, you will be able to enjoy EXP bonuses for Mounts and Training, and also more chances to get a higher tier foal when exchanging your horses!
But that is not all: From now on, there will be some permanent quests to obtain three pets for free! Take good care of them!
Who said second parts were never good? Enjoy the events and see you next week with more exciting content!
