I'm not sure if this is correct, but can rare insects, furniture and rare fish be added, but especially insects and furniture be added to the Alchemy Fusion Cache?

Insects especially the Monarchs are extremely hard to come by and expensive as all out when they come up for sale.


We are looking at different ways for users to get bugs and rare housing items, thank you for your suggestion!

Question- Since the introduction of the Alchemy Fusion cache to Go Fusion a number of users have been wondering if there are any plans to make GoFusion charms obtainable by some means other than daily chance or through the cash shop.
Perhaps by making an alchemy formula to create GoFusion charms that uses only philosopher's cache components and/or gold shop items. Or by adding star and diamond charms to the philosopher's caches. Is there a possibility of this happening in the future?


Perhaps in the future, however that is not in our current plans!

Can you release more ways for us to get charms for Gofusion? (and more updates?)


We are currently in the process of rereleasing charms for sale in La Victoire. Keep on the lookout for updates to GoFusion as we have got some stellar updates planned for the near future!

Rare bugs are practically a mythical sighting in towns. Many players go years without ever seeing a rare bug.

Would you consider allowing hoards of regular bugs to be exchange for rare bugs, similar to the fish exchange for rare fish?

Reasoning and other suggestions, including those for exchange rates, are listed in this thread.


We'll look into the dev requirements for an exchange, but in lieu of that we're looking into other ways of granting rare bugs- through GoFusion or Alchemy.

Could you guys please make opened caches useful to gofusion? You guys could make alchemy formulas ,with components from opened caches, to make charms. PLEASE! I have a huge opened cache hoard and I just want it to be useful for something.


This is an interesting idea- would you mind PM'ing me with more specific examples of what you mean? Its something I would like to look into more.

Quote:
Features

With any possible updates to gofusion coming in the near future, could we get an evaluation of the charm cost for some of the craftings? Many of the items that have been added are cost prohibitive for many Gaians, and make the feature less enjoyable.

Yes, we will evaluate it.

This question deals with GoFusion Charms in unopened Caches.

You have included the Heart Charm in the Philosopher's Cache as a rare drop.
And it's pretty awesome because it makes owning GoFusion items more realistic.

But Diamond Charms and Star Charms are still only available in the Daily Chance or Cash Shop.
They are still really hard to get.

I think that by including them in Philosopher's Cache's as rare drops would help a lot of people out.
You don't have to make them super common, make the drop rate extremely difficult to get.
It would cause a lot of people to sink gold in the Bifrost too because they would want a shot at getting these Charms.
Good gold sink and it makes GoFusion more realistic.
We all win here.

My question is...

Would you please do this?


Its something I'll look into, thank you for the suggestion!

Why do you feel the need to remove items from Go Fusion, punishing users questing for these items, even though that's not a way to keep the feature fresh and if you were looking to keep the feature fresh it would be better to just add new items only and provide better ways to organize them? You don't remove items from the gold shops, the Treehouse, Alchemy or any of the game echanges. It doesn't make sense.


Rotating items in GoFusion isn't meant to be a punishment, its to allow room for new content and to keep things fresh. Some items in GoFusion are meant to be long term quest items and will be cycled in for extended periods of time. There's no plans to retire any item from GoFusion permanently. Concerning sorting in GoFusion, this is something that we are working on to make it easier to locate updates and item types.

How soon will more items be released for cofusion? So far, most seem to be either animal items or CI's. I am hoping for more for human avatars. I am also hoping more items will be added more often.

Is there going to be any way to earn unique charms during the event?


If you are referring to the Unique Charms that were released in the summer then the answer is no- not in this event! However they will be released in other events in the future and we are going to continue to offer rewards for them.


Then is the Cheery Sweater not supposed to be for Unique Charms?
Why would you have an item that requires you to have saved charms from a 6 month old event?
I'm sure there's people who have joined between now and then who would want it, and there aren't enough Unique and Wildcard Charms on the MP to meet the demand for the supply.

Unless the sweater is going to be a permanent addition to GoFusion, this seems like a mistake.


Its very likely that we will rotate the sweaters out eventually but we won't be pulling it until well after the winter event is over.

When you look at you available achievements list you don't have any of the GoFusion or Alchemy achievements listed.
Since they are not listed it's hard to keep up with how many items I've fused together since there isn't a counter available for us to view like there are with other listed achievements (like the posting achievements) .
Also I'm doing alchemy, it would be nice to have them all listed so I know what I need to do and exactly how many achievements I have left.
I know there are guides for this, but I shouldn't have to look at guides to make sure I'm not skipping achievements that are not tied into any holiday events.

It only makes sense that achievements that are permanently available are listed in the available achievement space.

Can you guys list them, and if you are unable can you give us a reason as of why?

Question is originally by ( Nenanah ) I am using Nenanah's Ask the Staff Question Posting Service.


Possibly, this wouldn't be a super simple change as it will probably require changes to the pages so it probably wouldn't happen soon, but we can certainly take a look at it.

Since you've already come out with CI's that give users extra bugs, alchemy items, etc. Is there a chance you could make one that also gives out multiple GoFusion charms or possibly recolors of a past GoFusion item?

We have some coming soon for all the leftover snowflake charms flying around. They will also be involved in recipes in the future.

Hello staff!

I have a question about a GoFusion item. During winter event this item was apparently released in GoFusion. Sandman's Burden, but it was never announcement about it, and it left from the shop so quickly most people didn't even know it had been there? Was it suppose to be a surprise recolor with limited release, or was it just released early on accident?

I really wanted it and was wondering it it might be re released later.


It will be making another appearance, perhaps with a suave French shopkeeper!

Features/Games (?)
GoFusion is an interesting system and has been since it was announced last July, but I was wondering how the feature tied into the site as a whole. Alchemy was introduced by NPCs, has been featured in the manga, has its own shop, and uses items found all over the site. GoFusion, on the other hand, uses charms, the origins of which have yet to be explained. Is GoFusion tied in any way to the greater Gaia world, and if so, any chance we could learn more about it?

At this time there are no plans to incorporate GoFusion into the overall Gaia story!

Will Snowflake charms ever be un-soulbound so people who don't want them can get rid of them and people who want/need more can get more?

Nope, Snowflake charms will not be unsoulbound. We will be adding something into GoFusion that will cost one Snowflake charm and additional charms so that can expend your excess Snowflake charms that way.

The frozen fafnir is very pretty, but literally required almost 1,500 charms to make in the end. It seems like such a waste to dispose of so many charms for ultimately a single item, so in the future would it be possible to have dragons and other items require far less ingredients?


We can definitely look into the crafting ingredients required for future items. =)

Would you please Un-Soulbound the Snowflake charms!

What good is it to have 2 or 3 soulbound snowflake charms on an account???

Plus, I am sure there are plenty of people that were denied the last few charms they needed to craft something from the event due to the snowflake grant error that started towards the end of the event. At least give them some way to get the last few they needed to craft the item they were working towards.

Hello Gaia Staff!

I have a question about a possible snowflake charm glitch. When the Bitter Slumber event was going on, I collected around 72 charms on the main event page. But on the Go Fusion page, it said I collected 99 charms. I don't remember getting an extra 20 or so charms from the Daily Chance either. Thinking how many charms I had in Go Fusion was the amount I collected, I used them already to craft items. But if a glitch did occur, can I somehow give the items I crafted back? Also, did a glitch in my Snowflake charms occur? It's been bugging me for a while now. sad

Thank you!

This may have been due to a glitch with the inventory arranger and game items. We're looking into a fix for something like this. In the mean time, go ahead and file a ticket with this information and we can look into fixing the charms and items for you if there was a problem.

I’m ignoring the Snowflake glitch for this question and posing it for the future, when it has been resolved.

Would you please consider putting Ifrit the Adolescent Dragon or any Fafnir the Adolescent Dragon recolors into GoFusion? It would be a nice way to use up large sums of Snowflake charms. A lot of us were collecting in hopes of selling or trading... and just having items that cost 1 charm doesn't always help us to get rid of them now. (Personally, I just want the item and I wasn’t willing to shell out the cash for it. But others might find it a handy way to get rid of a lot of those pesky charms at one time in one lump sum of charms*.)

Small amount of support here (at least for Fafnir the Adolescent Dragon recolors).

*Props if you caught the J.G. Wentworth reference.


That is an interesting idea and something we can consider. Thanks for the suggestion! heart

Hello Gaia Staff!

While perusing Site Feedback, I ran into a thread that was a Booty Grab suggestion. This suggestion was to have new fish or old fish drop Charms while a game of Booty Grab was in play. If new fish were created, once they died, they would drop charm packs or a certain amount of charms. If that is too many charms for a fish to drop once they died, then something like charm fragments could be dropped from the dead fish and these fragments could be reconstructed into a Charm using a feature like GoFusion. Or a new fish or old fish could drop certain charms instead of just any of them. Here is the link to the whole idea in the thread in Site Feedback. I posted this user's idea in this post with permission from them. C:

The reason why I bring this user's thread up, or if you wish to answer this next question instead, is that you said in an earlier AtS that in the future, you would be updating gift boxes. I was wondering if updating fish drops or possibly item drops from the Overseer in aquariums were included in that plan as well?

That is all I want to ask. C:

Thank you so much! ^^


This is an interesting idea and something that we can experiment with. As it is now, fish drops have a chance of randomly drop you 3-10 different kinds of items of varying uniqueness and value. I think if we did anything it would be to add a chance of winning charms to these drops without making shards or any extra game pieces. Thank you for the suggestion- I'll see if we can implement it this week!


That's awesome! : D I will look forward to the announcement of it! C:

Just to be clear, will the Charms be dropped during a game of Booty Grab or will Charms be in fish drops after certain fish have died? Thank you so much again! C:


It will probably be via. Fish drops.

In GoFusion we can try an item on only when we have enough charms to make it. But to decide whether an item is worth saving charms for, it would be nice to be able to see how it would look on our avatars. And to be able to do that without looking for the item in the marketplace.

Great suggestion! We'll add it to our queue of feature suggestions! No guarantees when or if this improvement will be added, but we definitely like the idea.
