indrik berry confusion

JJBoomer · January 2019

So it says you need all 4 berries to evolve the nascent. But once you have all four, then you only need the one you want for the evolve indrik you want. So as I understand this, if I have all four berries, and I want the Pure Snow indrik, then I only need the pure snow berry to evolve it. So then why do we need all four different berries? Or is 4 berries of the type you want?

4 berries of the type you want

Plajhengenuin · January 2019

You need one berry to evolve indrik, but that berry consists of four fragments. (which are confusingly also called berries). So if you want Pure Snow indrik, you need four different fragments: Pure Snow berry of bloom, Pure Snow berry of budding, Pure Snow berry of growth and Pure Snow berry of ripeness. Than you combine four of them to one runebox berry, and feed that berry to indrik.

I assume this works like the feathers. you have to collect 4 berries during 4 events and each event an new berry unlocks but you can buy the old ones so if you don't get enough ticket during the PvP event you can catch up later.

However I think that unlike the feathers the berries is removed at the end of quarter one and we get 4 new for an new indrik type for season 2, I assume the berries come back season 1 next year.

it doesn't seem to work at least using only one character.

i got two Dawnwood Berries of Bloom in the last event, i had to put one in the bank and keep another in the bag because the game is bugged and you can't have 2 on the bag. the problem is that now i have one in the bag that i can'y put in the bank and it's impossible to buy another. i could buy with another character, but then it will be impossible anyway to have all the 4 Berries together to use it.

the idea seemed funny when it started, but it is too bugged and it doesn't work.

You don't need 4 dawned berries of bloom.
You need 1 of each of the four dawnwood berries (bloom, budding, growth, ripeness). The first 2 of those types should be available with today's event. The rest will come in future events, one per event. Note the first dawnwood berry will not be available in the next event so get them while you can

I made a detailed simple guide with pictures..:) showing how this works.

I'm afraid that your second Dawnwood Berry of Bloom is simply a waste of 10 tickets because you can't do anything with it. You need exactly 1 each of all 4 berry fragments for the same evolution, in order to do the evolution with an existing nascent indrik. However, once you have done that evolution, and it uses up the 4 berry fragments, your newly evolved indrik is then locked into your collections, the same way as any costumes, or any busts, or any houses, or any pets, or any other mounts would be, and you will have exactly one of them. For instance, you can collect multiple fragments from the murkmire prolog quests, and make multiple jelly runeboxes, but you can't open a second runebox for a second jelly after you already have one in your collections. The same thing is happening here. Then once you lock an evolved indrik into collections, it makes the nascent slot available once again, to make a new indrik. You can't evolve a second nascent indrik however into a second dawnwood indrik, you can only evolve it into a different evolved indrik with another set of four berry fragments from a subsequent quarter.

Oh BTW, can you pull the berry from the bag directly into your character inventory? if so, then you can use it that way. Hhowever, if you're looking to try to handle two of them, there's no reason to do so. As long as you can have one each of a quarter's berries, that's as much as you can or need to do with them, and any kind of juggling with the bag and the bank and the character inventory won't accomplish anything further for you, since you can use exactly and only one set of the 4 berries for a specific evolution.

So, it's not confusing any more but is it possible to even get all 4 evolutions? That's 80 tickets per evolution, and at 2 tickets per day it would take 40 days per evolution.

I'm going to try. I don't have a nascent mount yet (just one feather) but I'll be buying one of each berry from now on and with every 10 tickets I have leftover I'll buy a feather (or pet maybe).

EDIT: Actually as I think about it yes, assuming each quarter's events are at least a total of 40 days, and hopefully longer to get a nascent as well and the pets.

in addition, the feathers are going to be going into the crown store later this quarter, so that if you want to go that path when they arrive, further evolutions would cost 40 tickets plus whatever the feathers will be in crowns...it's an option

Holycannoli · February 2019

So we can use these dawnwood berries whenever we want right? We can collect all 16 berries then use 4 of them at a time at the end of the year on different nascent?

Yes, but you can only evolve one (1) nascent indrik at a time.

The confusion is why they should have either explained better or have kept it to tickets as a currency. Its far too overly complicated and really terrible on the inventory.

tedious™

DaveMoeDee · February 2019

What they really needed to do was to not allow you to buy more than one of the same berry fragment. Anyone who does that ends up with an unusable fragment they will eventually have to just destroy.

Mr_Walker · February 2019

Who the hell designed such a ridiculously convoluted system? It's bizarre.

There's no explanation whatsoever ingame on how it works, and even looking online it's confusing. I only figured the rest of it out with this thread.

Exactly, finger slips happen. Can we file a support ticket to get the tickets back? Unlikely.

Jhalin · February 2019

The Indrik evolution article explains everything in pretty clear detail. It lists all four berries you’ll need for the Dawnwood by name, what event they’ll be released, and says explicitly that you will need all four unique berries to upgrade into a Dawnwood Indrik.

It depend on how much you play. You can get 24 tickets during the Morrowind event.
One for world boss quest and one from delve quest. the anniversary event will be 5 weeks but is the next season.

YES PLEASE I accidentally did this (and LAG happens and then mouse is not where you thought!)

Question If I buy Dawnwood berries and upgrade my Indrik to Dawnwood Indrik can I then use four feathers to get another Indrik assuming the base Indrik disappears and then buy say Snow berries and then upgrade that Indrik to Snow Indrik

All of these questions are answered in the Indrik evolution article from January on the official website.

You lose the Nascent upon evolving into any of its forms, and will have to remake it.

Yes, thats exactly how it works.

You need a new nascent indrik for each evolved form you want. You can start buying a second set of feathers before using the first one, you just can't use them until you've evolved it.

Thanks I just wanted to get it straight in my head on how it all worked, I’ve already got the berries from these past two events and I’ve been picking up another set of feathers to because it started too look like we will be able to get one feather and berry per event so I should be able to get all four mounts by years end if I stay around to do them lol

Yes, but you can only evolve one (1) nascent indrik at a time.

There is nothing, however, preventing you from stacking up four of each feather and four of each berry, then doing the 'unlock Nascent Indrik, evolve Nascent Indrik' four times; it seems a little silly and wasteful of inventory space to do it that way, but if someone wants to do it that way, they can.

Why the hell would you want 4 of each berry? You only need one of each of the 4 unique berries (bloom, budding, growth and ripeness) for each flavour of mount.

I don't understand how people are still confused about this. It is very clearly explained in the article above.
