A Spirited Quest - Let's Talk About SPIRIT!

It seems as though I somehow managed to not dedicate a post to this, despite it taking quite a bit of work and dedication. I got SPIRIT! Even though I worked hard for it (and I know I won't be using him much) it felt like I WON something rather than earned it. Spirit is SO cool! I watched the first movie with my little sisters when it came out and it still sticks with me. Some basics about Spirit, told in photos: Welcome Spirit! How to make Spirit yours! Spirit basic stats Miradero Apple tooltip All of this info is available from Tori and ... uh what's her name, that vendor who stands next to her. (I'll check next time I log in.) Those are the basics. Everything you need to get started is available right there, in Fort Pinta. HOWEVER, you'll probably need a lot more help than that to actually win Spirit over. That's where this post comes into play. I'm adding a chart with a schedule and a few different links to help point ...

Easter Treat: New American Quarter Horses available in the Wednesday Update, April 8, 2015 and FREE STAR COINS

Today's update brought with it an entirely new kind of horse, the American Quarter Horse.  This breed has its own animations, blinks its eyes, moves its ears, and even grazes when idle. There are three colors that have been released so far, and all three cost 890 star coins. The palomino is available at Firgrove. The black is available at Marley's Farm. The brown is at Fort Pinta. I haven't decided whether I'm going to buy either the black or the palomino, or if I should wait until they release either a blue roan or a gray American Quarter Horse. What do y'all think?  Have you decided and purchased one yet, or are you saving your coins for the next big thing? Some people have mentioned that the canter animation is a bit off, but I haven't ridden one yet so I can't say.  What do you think? Thanks for reading and Happy Trails! ~*Veronika Starstorm*~ ps: There was a code for 200 free star coins: EASTER200SC pps: I got thi...

Wednesday Beach Update - Swimming with your Horse and New Clothes

Today's update brought with it a new area - a beach where you can swim with your horse! (taken from the Star Stable website) There's a plank you can walk or run with your horse on, and on the other side there's a shark.  I've heard the shark can actually damage you, so be careful! The highest point of the plank lets you run, jump, and splash into the water below. Global chat extends to most areas of this new spot. There's a new clothing vendor and a cafe vendor, with lots of places for you to sit and sun yourself.  The sunning areas follow the model already in place like in cafe areas, where you can view yourself sitting from different angles, your character automatically faces you in order to take a good screenshot, and there is also the ability to sit on top of someone (accidentally or spitefully) with the "eject" button right below the various angle buttons. 'Twas a cute little update and makes me wonder if more horse-beaches are...
