Horizon:
I will be using this post to update the progress of pet leveling over the period of a year or less, the current situation is estimated to be around 9 months with 3 days of Pet XP event monthly. It might also be further reduce to about 4 to 6 months after I try out a theory on the Pet XP Event to see how much Pet XP I am able to gain during the event with Pet Experience Pill, but the most likely result will be about 6 months with about one horse every 1.5 months instead of 2 months without using the Pet Experience Pill during the event to maximize the benefit.
The first horse will be ready in a month or so as it is already Level 52 when I kick start the new project, no sure if I am going to include it into the final quota as it seem unfair to have a head start of about two months or so. But on the other hand, I am also using one of the pet leveler to level two Drakes to Level 31 which will take about two weeks. As the initial plan is to spread the leveling of 16 different horse over a period of about a year and I had increase the quantity from 16 to 18 and reduce the duration from 12 months to 9 months.
I had plan for about 18 toons to keep the horse after it had been leveled, and might level another 3 more for sales on my merchant toons if there are still Pet Experience Pill left over as I estimate using about 18 of it per month but I did get enough to last more than 8 months. But overall one of the pet leveler will be doing merchant mode whenever there are events that are not affected by the Pet XP Event, but that will be adjusted accordingly later depends on the situation.
The Level 52 horse is Level 54 after about 5 days, the progress is about the same as the Drake with 2 days ahead of schedule as I expect it to reach Level 54 in about a week. The other horse is Level 36 too as it was Level 24 when I start the Project Ferrari so the progress is also constant with 2 days ahead of schedule while I expect it to reach the same level in a week.
Currently the progress seem to be faster than expect by about 30%, not sure why is that so as my calculation is based on the data provided on the weebly site. It feel like the Pet XP gain is every 3 seconds instead of 3.5 seconds, but that still doesn't really explain the 30% different as it only account to about 15%. I might be right about Pet XP gain is every 3 hits instead of 3.5 seconds or maybe the hit rate accessory doesn't help a lot to reduce the misses. But I do notice that Ranger seem to level pet faster than Royal Knight due to faster attack speed and higher hit rate.
Been very hard for me to conclude the result so far, as the laptop had been having disconnecting issue quite often which affect the progress. The desktop result is more constant but still one of them will still have disconnection issue once in a while even though it is on LAN connection, but I will still continue to try and make sure that most of the time all the different toons on different devices will be as close as possible.
Manage to get the first horse to Level 57 on first day of Pet XP Event, as I had said earlier I am still not sure if I would want to include this in the final quota. It got a very good head start of reaching above Level 50 before the Project Ferrari, but I will just leave it as it is and then decide later. Most likely I would not include it into the quota as I will most likely be ahead of schedule with a few more extra.
Progress had been fast throughout the Pet XP Event, with a new horse reaching Level 42 in just 2 days. Usually it will take about 3 weeks for that, but using Pet Experience Potion during Pet XP Event had greatly reduce it. The other horse also gain a few levels, with very fast progress of about 4 weeks in just 3 days. Decided to give the Level 57 horse to Rick and not include it into the final quota, I actually had plan for that only because the last time I had confuse between the two Rick. The other Rick told me he already had a horse, so I give it to Sly instead when he say he also need it.
A Level 91 Titan had been saying Happy Birthday to my decoy, I was expecting it to take about 3 days but it actually took 3 long weeks. And with that information I get I can confirmed that he had fall into the traps I set, I can start the next phrase of the plans which will really bring a lot of despair and misery to him before he realize it. He will be wasting a lot of time and effort and end up with no result, and he will also become the joke of the century.
Manage to get a horse to Level 57 in about a month, this horse is Level 24 with 3 days head start when the Ferrari Project start. I was expecting it to level up in about 1.5 months with good progress, but end up the result is better than expected. I was expecting the project to complete in about 8 to 9 months, but with such progress it will be looking at about 5 to 6 months.
Second horse is ready after 3 days, it took also about a month and didn't have the 3 days head start like the first. I guess the result is almost the same, and the remaining horses will also follow the same trend. The fastest progress is still using Pet Experience Pill during the Pet XP Event which gain the progress of about 3 weeks in just 3 days.
Third horse is ready after another 9 days, it is consider fast as it took about 11 days to level drake before it start leveling horse. Not really sure why it is 2 days ahead of schedule as there are also a lot of delay in between due to server maintenance, but that doesn't really matter much as the fourth one is already Level 55 and will be ready in about few days.
Fourth horse is completed in just another 4 days due to the start of Pet XP Event, the event will run for about 2.5 days and I will try to make good use of it to level the horses as much as possible. Not sure why they had reduce the duration of the event, but we can only make the best of what we get. At the rate this is going, I should be able to complete the project in about 5 to 6 months.
The Pet XP Event had ended, manage to get horse from Level 1 to 43. It is still about 3 weeks worth of Pet XP when Pet Experience Pill are use during the event, although it is 0.5 days less this time but it doesn't really seem to affect much. Other horse manage to get from Level 48 to Level 53 too, if the event remain constant at once a month the progress of the project will be completed as prediction.
Fifth horse is completed 9 days later, I was expecting it to complete in about 2 to 3 weeks but it kind of completed about 5 to 12 days ahead of schedule. So far most of the horses had been able to complete ahead of the schedule as per expectation, and the progress had been very good. There are some disruption too during the progress, but I am not sure if it is human error. But since there are no clear sign of any foul play, I will let it remain as it is and keep the back up plan for later.
Sixth horse is completed after another 2 days, I was expecting it to be completed in about 4 to 7 days. So far most of the horse had been able to complete ahead of schedule, guess the whole project will be completed earlier than expected. I might even exceed my own expectation looking at the progress so far, but I will still save some room for further improvement and deal with whatever unexpected that might happen in the future.
Seventh horse completed after another 10 days, the eighth horse is also Level 56 and should be completed in about few days. The progress had been very good even with a lot of disruption, guess everything are going in the right direction. Notice a lot of players are looking for pink dragon mount, I was wondering if I should spend some time to level some. But since I don't really bother much about a lot of stuffs these day, might as well drop the idea.
Eighth horse completed in another 3 days, the progress is still faster than expected. There had been a lot of disconnection recently, mostly due to the server firewall I think. It make it harder to maintain a constant without regular monitoring, which will affect the result of the project greatly and led to a bias conclusion. I think I had become the Best Pet Leveler with the new setup which optimize the speed of pet leveling, I will continue to do my best to surpass the expectation in more area.
The Pet XP Event had ended, manage to get horse from Level 30 to 48. It
is still about 4 to 5 weeks worth of Pet XP using Pet Experience Pill during the event, it is one days more this time and the progress seem much faster then I had expected. Other horse manage to get from Level 48 to
Level 55 too, it should be complete in about two weeks or less.
Ninth horse is completed in another 3 days, much faster than the one to two weeks as expected. The next horse is also near to completion at Level 56, so I would expect it to be ready in another few more days. So far most of the progress had been faster than expected, the outcome of the project had been very optimistic.
Tenth horse is completed after another 4 days, slightly slower than the former but still within expectation. There are a lot of disruptions but still within acceptable level, it just help me to identify all their alternates and add them to my black list. I actually did thought of making some change, but I feel that letting things remain the same is also a good way to bait.
11th and 12th horse completed before the Pet XP Event end, as expected the progress is about 3 weeks as expected. Had seen some players trying to disrupt or want to change the rules for AFK Pet Leveling, guess every horse I manage to complete are a slap in their face. There is really nothing much they can do about it as Fawkes developer had make it clear that it is not against the rule as long as the pet leveler doesn't get any drop from mobs.
They are jealous of other players who are able to achieve more than them because of their own incompetency and lack of knowledge for effective problem solving, and their empty threat of being other players worst nightmare had become a joke when so many players continue to level their horse and turn them into Knightmare mount.
13th horse had been completed, this horse had been gaining level at the start during the last Pet XP Event. Never thought I would complete it before the next Pet XP Event start, but it still progress steady all along. The other horse is also going to be Level 56 soon and should be completed in another few days.
14th horse had been completed, think another Pet XP Event will be coming soon. With the next Pet XP Event I should be able to complete another few more horses, I had already completed more than half of the target I had set earlier and found that I still got more than half of Pet Food and Pet Exp Pill left over, with the remaining supply I should be able to complete about 30 or more instead of 20.
15th horse had been completed on the first day of Pet Exp Event, it is very fast as it is already Level 56 when the event started. The other horse also manage to gain a level and reach Level 56 too, should be able to complete it tomorrow. With so many horses completed I had already fulfilled 80% of the original target set for this project, and the best part is that I still got enough stuffs for much more.
16th horse completed as per expected, kind of a bit behind schedule as I got to do other stuffs which is more important. I was busy with another event which require me to go around Singapore to scan 15 QR Codes at different location, the whole journey took me about 8 hrs. The horses completely hungry by the time I reach home, and they are leveling without Pet Experience Pill for about 5 hours.
17th horse completed, just one more to complete my original plan. But I will continue to level them until I had completely use up my supply, think it will be another 5 to 6 months more. But I will conclude this post as I had already collected enough data to prove that my theory is correct, all the additional will not change the result.
18th horse completed, original plan had been fulfilled. Not sure if I would want to continue to level more horse, but there are still enough stuffs to level twice as much as the original plan. There are also enough toons to store it, so might as well continue leveling more until the stuffs are use up. I also not sure if I would want to continue updating this post as the original target had been met, there are already enough data collected to prove my theory and I had surpass Caugs to become the best pet leveler.
Note:
This post will conclude after completion of all the horse leveling. This post will conclude until further notice as the original target had been met, will decide if I would continue to update further.
