Rescreatu welcomes everyone to discuss, give feedback, ask questions, and express concerns about Kir's Quest V2 on this thread! We will try to address all of you.
Answers to FAQ for PQ V2:
Once a level is unlocked it remains unlocked forever Prize Shop points and Leaderboard scores are separate RSTU frames must be used on NAMED, dead Creatu RSTU frames and Random Dye Kit are one-use Air Brush is unlimited-use (and working now, with Air Brush Paint Bottles which are one-use) Dye Kits (including Random Dye Kit) do not work on RSTU (anymore) Power Pira, Speed Stoor, Defense Dhani and Intellect Iko are NOT stat modifiers; they are part of a recipe for stat-modifying potions Stat-modifying potions have been improved NCJBs do not work on any Kir's Quest Creatu
Point system for PQ V2:
Everyday Creatu: Natural-Sepia-Cream: 0 points Black-Ginger: 1 point Silver-Blonde: 2 points Albino-Calico: 3 points
Seasonal Creatu: Natural: 0 points Sepia-Cream: 1 point Black-Ginger: 2 points Silver-Blonde: 3 points Albino-Calico: 4 points
Clarification on points and levels:
Each pet you hand in gives you X amount of points according to the chart above. Those are spendable points. When handing in a pet, you also get a "level point", regardless of whether that pet gives spendable points or not. For example, today I handed in seven pets. Three gave zero spendable points, two gave three spendable points, one gave one spendable point, and one gave two spendable points. My level is now at 7 because I turned in 7 pets, but my spendable points increased by 9.

I love the new Random Dye, but I was wondering, it sounds like it deletes the pets permanently now. Does it? (Or does it still just scan them but in a scary way of telling you?)

I didn't receive any points upon completing my first quest. I received 100k and an avatar though.
I'm guessing old items no longer stocked are permanently retired?
Something will be here eventually.

No points for natural, sepia and cream pets.
Or so Lut hears.
Ability to skip/pass on pets would be great.
Pushing us a point back for doing so would be fine.
Just to get pass those utterly irritating ones maybe...
EDIT: "...ist in any of his endeavors. I hope to continue being of service to him even after he returns. "
I know this is utterly irrelevant, but I hope there will be drama in this plot. :' D

I love the new way that items are unlocked. It makes it more meaningful.
Difficulty-wise, I've only had three and I'm already stuck again. Silver Otachie, Albino Vogar now Albino Draqua.
I would say that having a few easier pets in between the more difficult ones would make it more enjoyable, say for example ;
First - picked at random Next 3 - easy-ish Next one - More difficult (higher colour, or medium coloured seasonal) Next 3-5 - easier Next one - more difficult
and so on, maybe on every 10 or 15 the more difficult one becomes a fair bit harder like a high coloured seasonal That's just my thoughts though :>
What Lut says could maybe be a good idea, maybe you get only so many skips per X amount of turns, or if you chose to skip you go down a level instead of staying on the same, maybe you loose out a couple of points.

Main post updated with more info.
Dawn, this isn't a scan event, its Pet Quest V2, so like the original, it means handing in a pet, not just scanning. =)

I don't like the frequency of calicos being asked for. I have been asked for a calico Chimby twice in a row, which is a really odd coincidence. I've heard other people being asked to turn in calicos a lot, too. I guess it's better than albinos... but I prefer a purely random mix.
Something will be here eventually.

So far I like the new system better. The tier system gives me more encouragement to keep looking for pets to give.
I saw the suggestion to possibly skip or pass on a pet. If that was possible I think it should be a time based thing, like if you have the same Kir quest pet order for say two, three, four months, he gets tired of waiting and gives you another assignment. It would make it so just passing on every single hard pet is not appealing to users, but it would keep some users from getting in the rut of eternally stuck, since then they're not contributing to the system if they're stuck on a pet for a long time. Just a suggestion, I know I wouldn't want to wait two- four months to get another chance at getting some points unless I was really stuck.

Zada's idea actually sounds pretty cool. o: It is very true that a person stuck forever on the same quest isn't contributing to the economy as much. A time limit seems like a fair way to allow skips.
Though, it might be better if it was a little longer or required something else too. Some extra effort maybe. Otherwise I imagine the sales of colored seasonals could take a hit, especially in their off seasons, since people already may be stuck waiting until they get in season.
Maybe there could even be different limits for skips over seasonals and skips over regular Creatu? |

Kir/K13-807 has asked for a Silver Vaspi from me 3 times (and I've only ever turned in maybe 10 pets), and it drives me crazy. I'd really love a way to skip a pet somehow.
Maybe for the skipping thing, after a certain amount of time, Kir offers for you to skip that one really hard pet in exchange for a requirement of turning in several slightly less difficult pets (but without earning any points)? Or Kir gives you an option to, as lutinofeather suggested, lose a couple of points so you can skip this one pet.
I'm liking the new system overall, though. It's great and looks an awful lot more fun. That new recipe card for the squishies seems really interesting, too.
I do have a question though, do we still get 3 eggs when we turn in 120 points for Ivik/Galta eggs? It just says "Ivik Egg" or "Galta Egg" in the prize shop (not plural.)
I do agree with 3mmique's suggestion with the pre-set pet difficulties. I think that would help keep things going more smoothly for people doing the quest.

I set up a list of what I've had and how much I payed so far on my Log. All prices are what I payed for them at the time, prices may now have inflated/deflated.
Level : [17/120]
Previous Kir Snacks ; Newest to Oldest~
2012-02-28 06:52:42: 3mmique gave me a calico Meiko. 9.5mil2012-02-26 08:13:08: 3mmique gave me a blonde Vogar. 4.5mil2012-02-20 17:02:16: 3mmique gave me a calico Leverene. 16mil2012-02-17 22:20:15: 3mmique gave me a Natural Leverene. 100tu2012-02-17 22:16:25: 3mmique gave me a ginger Skaldyr. 140k2012-02-17 20:29:08: 3mmique gave me a Natural Tesuri. 100tu2012-02-17 20:26:48: 3mmique gave me a silver Tesuri. 1.4mil2012-02-17 20:22:51: 3mmique gave me a blonde Aukira. 5mil2012-02-17 02:15:16: 3mmique gave me a silver Leverene. 12mil2012-02-16 16:43:37: 3mmique gave me a silver Kurrabi. 14mil2012-02-16 02:59:56: 3mmique gave me a Natural Paor. 100tu2012-02-16 02:58:18: 3mmique gave me a blonde Narwi. 16mil2012-02-15 17:32:08: 3mmique gave me a silver Vogar. 9mil2012-02-15 17:21:38: 3mmique gave me a cream Sirleon. 5k2012-02-15 17:20:02: 3mmique gave me a albino Draqua. 20mil2012-02-10 02:32:33: 3mmique gave me a albino Vogar. 20mil2012-02-10 02:07:23: 3mmique gave me a silver Otachie. 700k
Kir's Bill : 128,245,300 tu Avg Cost/Pet : 7,543,841 tu
So I have spent 128 million to get to Level 17, and now he wants ANOTHER Albino Vogar. Another 20mil.
This makes me want to give up, I'm only level 17. Was aiming for 120, but if it keeps up like this,
Avg pet cost * 120 7,543,841 * 120 = 905,140,920
With my luck, I'll spend 900 million to get a Galta. Why do that when I can buy someones for 120mil ?
This is getting pretty ridiculous now >_>
- - - - -
& If I include the cost of an Albino Vogar, Total Cost : 148,245,300 tu Avg/Pet : 8,235,850 tu
Avg Pet cost x 120 = 988,302,000

For it to actually benefit the community, wouldn't it be better for the less-rare to be asked for more frequently, we are swimming in Natties, Sepias & Creams that are becoming of little use, and instead dealing a big blow to the rarer numbers of pets as they seem to be the only ones asked for.
If say 5, 10 pets of a lower colour where asked for, eg 10 Nattie Zennies; that would be far more beneficial, atleast in my opinion. I understand that it is supposed to be difficult and a long term goal, but still, at the moment it only benefits Ranchers that have the luck of hatches - not too many, while it burns a hole in the pocket of everyone else.
In the whole game; Albinos - 7439 pets* Calicos - 2476 pets* Blondes - 14,750 pets* ....
Natties - Too big for search on single colour, eg "Ahea" (1 pet species) - 32,140 pets* "Berrok" (1 pet species) - 29,740 pets*
*including CS & Kir pets, dead pets and/or banned accounts.
Nevermind the rest of the other species of natties, nevermind the amount of Sepia & Creams...
Can anyone at all see where I'm coming from ? Or am I the only one with this opinion.

I know exactly where you're coming from. It's infuriating that the only pets they want are the ones that are valuable. We should be focusing on ways to cut the number of pets that are in a high supply. I do not care if I have to hand in ten of the things to get a point, it'd be getting rid of them.
That and for the return you get off of the pets, it does not remotely make up for the cost.

Yes, he should ask for more common pets more frequently.
If there's 90% chance of hatching natural, he could ask for naturals 90% of the time.
Of course, naturals are 0 points and 1 round, so it'll be kind of weird.
(by weird, I mean to be at round 120 with very few points)
Perhaps he could ask for 10 natural ____ for 1 point and 1 round
and 1 albino ____ for 3 points and 1 round.
Uh.
Just mere suggestions.

I'd agree that it certainly needs to be asking for less very rare colours. Newer players are going to have no chance to afford to buy half the things he asks for, for one!
I know I could never afford an albino or calico anything, and if I got one I certainly wouldn't be giving one to Kir.

I triple, quadruple, whatever that notion. We are up to our eyes in commonly colored pets. If there was a rule of 1 point per 15 naturals, 1 point per 10 sepia, 1 point per 10 cream (common pets, not seasonals), this would work out much better.
Something will be here eventually.
