Is Coltzan missing?

#1 Post by dnahvalkyrie »

It has been over 18 days since I got Coltzan to appear at his shrine. (It's been 18 days since I noticed and started counting.) Is this happening to anyone else? Or am I just having a really long string of bad luck?

bad luck, I just got a dubloon.
I usually try to click the shrine on second 55. I usually get either a level up, food, dubloon, but most of the time nothing XD

Try changing your active pet when you go there. That might help if it's a different one.

I got a level up this morning, the other day I got some money, I've gotten food and health restored as well. Sounds like just a string of bad luck for you.

It is just your bad luck. Although it does sound like a great intro for a plot.
Where is Coltzan? Why hasn't he appeared? What could possibly happen to a ghost? Stay tuned for more info!

I had the exact same problem a while back. It was really frustrating but it'll stop, don't worry.

I just got an increase in speed from him. I find that lower level pets seem to get more prizes from him.

I noticed that lower level pets do better as well. My main pet is level 51... and I very rarely get anything with her. I switched over to my newest pet who is level 2... and its actually rare not to get something from Coltzan.

I have noticed that too. When I change lab pets mostly, with inicial stats they get good stuff, and when they get some good stats in the lab, they stop getting good stuff from coltzan

You sure? Cause Ihave the exact same problem - except that, no joke, my pet hasn't gotten a single thing from Coltzan in months - possibly the beginning of last year. Oh, no, wait, I think one time I got a burnt piece of food... but that's all I remember. Granted, I don't go every day, but I was going every day when it did start. Larger gaps don't help, either.

The lab pets do work a bit more often, though. Not much, but they don't always get nothing at all. So I guess it really is decided on stats, then? Or perhaps just level?

After I leveled my main pet up to about 90, I stopped getting anything. At all. I switched to another pet with basic stats and got stat boosts and other things each day for the first couple days. Now it's about 2 out of 3 days.

There's definitely a better chance of getting something with your weaker pets than your stronger ones.
I keep my lab pet as my active pet in case of Boochi, but I always switch to my "weakest" pet (lv36, str59, def41) to visit Coltzan. I hardly ever get stats for this weaker one, but if I ever forget to switch from my lab pet before I visit, I ALWAYS get a level. Always.

I don't know.. cause I've been going every day with my strongest non-lab pet and I usually get something. Either a level, stats, or a dubloon of some sort.

Ah! Well that explains my recent run of good luck with the shrine. Up until recently I was using my eyrie, who has the highest stats of all my pets, and I was getting nothing almost all the time. About a week ago I switched to a brand new pet with no training yet, and almost every day I get a level or stat increase.
