Spring has sprung(?) and with it comes a small celebration of spring, the season of Growth. This celebration, called Beast'r, begins on all servers (including Kael, Varsoon and Zarrakon) on March 29, 2024 at 12:01 a.m. Pacific and ends at 11:59 p.m. on April 3, 2024.

This year's event includes 5 new eggs, 7 new buyable items and one new achievement.

A Bit of Background

Since this is an extremely short-duration annual event, you may want to become familiar with it before it begins.

The basic premise of this little event is that there are beast'r eggs hopping around the cities and starter areas in Norrath, and you get to try to hunt them down and grab them. If you manage to grab one, you get an heiroom fluff pet "gem" (scroll) of the egg. There are also "Beast'r Eggschanger" NPCs in Qeynos Province District (Elddar Grove area), Freeport, Darklight Wood, Greater Faydark, Timorous Deep, and Frostfang Sea. Eggs that were introduced in past years return this year and can also be traded in for house pet versions of the eggs.

In addition to the buyable housepets, the Beast'r Eggschangers sell a few other items for small amounts of coin. You will also find a dryad NPC near the Beast'r Eggschanger in Darklight Wood that will grant you the start of small overseer series of quests that will only be available during the event.

New Buyables

These items will be for sale on "Beast'r Eggschanger" NPCs in Qeynos Province District (Elddar Grove area), Freeport, Darklight Wood, Greater Faydark, Timorous Deep, and Frostfang Sea, but there's a catch. The Floramyst Gorilla Plushie and the Blue Stained Glass Egg will only be sold on the "evil" side (Freeport, Darklight Wood, Timorous Deep), and the Floramyst Doe Plushie and the Pink Stained Glass Egg will only be sold on the "good" side (Qeynos, Greater Faydark, Frostfang Sea). This doesn't stop a good aligned person from going to Timorous and buying the corrupted one, or an evil alt from hitting up Frostfang Sea, for example. It just means you'll be doing a little traveling if you want the full set.

Flowering Cactulent (fluff pet) 1g 20 silver	Orange Stained Glass Egg 60 silver	Pixie Powder Leaves Tile 1g 20 silver
Blue Stained Glass Egg 60 silver	Floramyst Gorilla Plushie 1g 20 silver	Pink Stained Glass Egg 60 silver
Floramyst Doe Plushie 1g 20 silver

*As mentioned above, the Floramyst Gorilla Plushie and the Blue Stained Glass Egg will only be sold on the "evil" side (Freeport, Darklight Wood, Timorous Deep), and the Floramyst Doe Plushie and the Pink Stained Glass Egg will only be sold on the "good" side (Qeynos, Greater Faydark, Frostfang Sea) vendors.

New Eggs

There are five new eggs to locate and collect this year, plus a hidden achievement can be earned when you find all five.

Flashy Beast'r Egg	Gaudy Beast'r Egg	Glitzy Beast'r Egg
Sparkly Beast'r Egg	Twinkly Beast'r Egg

Protip:

While asking a guard for "Beast" works to sometimes chase down the loose eggs, it will have some mixed results. Not only will they point to the nearest loose egg, but if someone has out one of the egg fluff pets or the Mischievous Beastie familiar from the Anchorage quests you will end up pointed to them if they are closer. Asking them for "Eggschanger", however, will help you find the vendor if you're in one of the six above-listed zones.

Quest Tracker

Are you having a hard time keeping track of which alts still need which eggs for the achievements, or who hasn't finished the collections? Casdoe from Maj'Dul has updated her quest tracker for this event once again in both XLS format and in pdf format. Thanks!
