    Default [Suggestion] Special Effect for Egg Drops

    Just like fireworks when Locked drops, can you please give special effect for egg drops?
    considering pets doesn't auto pick chests and eggs,
    I think it will help us not missing certain eggs in crowded and high paced places

    e.g. bird feathers flying + bird chirp sound

    teehee, thank you devs

    I think that's a good idea. I've done double takes and realized when I go back that I got an egg drop. If it wasn't for the reroll reminder, I wouldve lost a few...I'm sure I've missed a few eggs in my time playing.

    Personally, i like the fireworks because it adds that extra "umpf" to the feeling of accomplishment.

    +1 to the idea. i get paranoid when i reroll and cant find what i rerolled especially when im in the run-up to the bosses in km3. for all i know it could be nexus. the bird feathers would be great just like how locked has the fireworks effect, i can clearly recognise it

    Effects for every single different egg out there? The only way I see this happening is if they all get a common loot effect like stardust or intense glow that will immediately catch the eye.


    +1 for the latest idea. :P

    Sooo agree with this! I keep running around or when I see some pink sparkles, I run towards it, hoping it's an egg.

    A visual effect would be better than a sound effect since many players like myself play with the sound off. I like the idea to have both though. Like the OP wrote, in a high pace map like km3 you can easy overlook an egg drop.

    It could be the same effect as a locked crate. Just something that flashes is fine. The problem is that an egg is so small and can be hard to notice, and your pet won't pick an egg up. So if it drops from a mob, you may just pass it by. I wonder how many Nexus eggs I probably have missed when running KM3.

    Would have to be some sort of visual effect that you would see even if the drop is off the screen. Even locked crates with their visual effect can be missed if they drop off screen. This has almost happened to me before when I went back to investigate a reroll from a mob kill.

    +++++1 to the idea!

    Good suggestion. I'll add it to "ye olde list of stuff to add" and we'll see how that bubbles up into something we actually do.

    How many times did you try to get a drop before you got your perfect screenshot?
