A forum account is REQUIRED to login and play on the Legends of Equestria servers.

To run our game, you'll need to make sure you have the following:

Getting to Cloudopolis
In order to get to Cloudopolis, you must travel via the airship in Cantermore!

If you're in Cantermore, travel up the cliff to the airship port and board your way onto the airship.

If you're starting in Ponydale, you must first go to the train station and travel to Cantermore, and then go to the airship port.


Getting to Cantermore
In order to get to Cantermore, you must travel via train from Ponydale or via airship from Cloudopolis!

If you're in Ponydale, you must travel via train. The train station is just past Sugarcane Corner.

If you're in Cloudopolis, go to the airport located high up and to the right of the main cloud.


Getting to Ponydale
If you'd like to visit the quaint little town of Ponydale, you must go by train from Cantermore.

If you're in Cloudopolis, go to the airport and get to Cantermore.

Once you're in Cantermore, simply go to the train station by by Astral Charm.


Questing
Plenty of NPCs (Non-Player Characters) need help with their tasks! Some give out special prizes if you lend them a helping hoof!

Go up to any NPC, right click, and select "Talk." NPCs have a "..." over their name.

Listen to what they have to say, and be sure to follow their instructions in order to move on in the quest.

At the end, you might get a reward for your kindness!


Battling
Watch out when going to the Evershade Forest! It's home to some scary monsters!

In order to defend yourself against the creatures you'll encounter, try using your special combat abilities!

Earth Ponies have Seismic Buck and Rough Terrain, Unicorns have Rainbow Fields and Magical Arrow, and Pegasi have Dual Cyclone and Gale! All three races have Ground Pound.

When ready, select a creature, a target reticule should appear. Attack the mob by getting in their range and selecting your skill.

When the enemy's health gets to zero, they'll faint! Don't worry though, I'm sure they can just walk it off.


Parties
If you want to form a party with other players, you can right-click them and add them to your party!

Parties are useful for going out and exploring. You never know when you might run into monsters, and there is always safety in numbers!


Trading
Do you have an interesting item that you'd like to give to a friend? Well, you can trade them!

Simply right click on your friend and hit "Trade." The other pony needs to accept your trade for it to continue.

Once accepted, you'll see a screen. Left click and add the item to the trading menu.

When both players are satisfied with the trade, they both must hit "Ready." When both players hit "Ready," a "Done" button will appear. Once both players hit the "Done" button, the trade will be completed.


Stuck Somewhere?
Have no fear! No need to call the moderators! Simply type /stuck or unstuck me and you will be moved to the starting point of the map. (This will not work if you are in combat.)

Not long left, everyone!

Open Server Reminder and more BABSCon Details!

Apr 05
Hello everyone! I have a few quick things to tell you about today.

Firstly, I hope you enjoyed our little April Fool's post!

Secondly, our Open Server Weekend is in a little under two weeks! We'll be opening the servers on April 18th 12:01am until April 20th 11:59pm, so make sure that you register ahead of time at our forums so that you can log into the game the moment the servers are available. The game will be available for download a day or two before, but the servers will not open until April 18th, at the times specified above. This way, everyone has the chance to grab the game and log in once the servers open.
Please note that you must have a forum account before you can log in to the game. It is highly suggested that you register before the 18th, as the servers will be very busy once the weekend starts!
If you don't have an account already, you can register here.

Thirdly, I have some more information on BABSCon to share with you!

As announced a few weeks ago, Legends of Equestria will be hosting a Discussion Panel at BABSCon 2014, which begins on April 18th and will end on April 20th to coincide with the Open Server Weekend. Here are some more specifics for those of you attending!

The panel will start at 3:45pm and end at 4:30pm on Friday, April 18th. You can view their full schedule here. We'll have several wonderful team leaders along with plenty of awesome staff members.

I also wanted to let you know that a Legends of Equestria/BABSCon Poster will be available in very limited amounts at the con. You can see it here, and be sure to keep an eye out for it at the con as a charity item! If you would like more information about BABSCon, you can read about the San Francisco MLP Convention here.

What do you want to hear about on the panel? What would you like to see? Feel free to let us know in the comments!

Good news, everyone!

Apr 01
Hello everyone!

You may have heard about Facebook's recent shopping spree on everything you hold dear.  Well, we have a very special announcement for you today: they didn't stop at the Oculus Rift!

Facebook has bought Legends of Equestria for $1,000,000 US dollars, and that means we're going freemium!

We have already started the process of transferring our game into a cash generator a casual, entertaining game that you can hook up to all of your social networks and send your friends gratuitous amounts of invites!

Here is a behind-the-scenes screenshot!


We accept Paypal, Rupees, and Dogecoin as payment for all of our great freemium content.

We obtained an ultra-exclusive interview with the Team Directors on what they would be doing with their share of the $1,000,000 US dollars:

Cerebrate: I have already purchased NASA, and as soon they finish my rocket I'll be on my way to Jupiter.

Bloomberg: For the first time since I achieved my life-long dream and became a writer, I will be capable of eating something other than ramen.

Kit: I'm going to China to rebuild the Great Pyramids out of recycled horseshoes. This will provide eco-friendly jobs for unemployed ponies and also serve as my bridge to Valhalla.

AnyaSmash: I will make it so that ponies are actually a real thing, like, I will have horses genetically modified so that miniature horses can physically exist in the real world.

Blue Ink: I will be hiring DHX to create the show: My Little Waifu: Derpy is QT?.

Ellowee: I really see a lot of potential in this new site called Myspace, I think that if I invest in it, I can be really famous!
 
Hirosashii: I plan on putting it all in a trust fund for my children, so that they may achieve their dreams~

Perry the Pony: I am going to restart Canterlot Gardens 2013! Or whatever year it is!

Herabek: I think that, if I get all this money in dollar bills, I can carry it around in all of my pockets and that means that women will actually notice me!

SavanaPope: According to these numbers, I can purchase 1,254.33 hot tubs, and I plan on putting one inside the other, so when I get out of my hot tub I can step into my other hot tub for a minimum of 1,253.33 hot tub layers.

Vector: I'm planning on buying my own personal hot air balloon for which I will hire someone to man for me to the swiss alps. Once there I'll build my own personal lodge out of curdled cheese from himalayan goats. The bowling alley will have green Jell-o flooring and 5 flat screen TVs that only play the history channel and cartoon network, and the inner gardens will have plants transported from Papua, New Guinea.

Frankie: I'm going to bury it.


Keep an eye out on our social media for updates to this exciting new development! Due for release very soon, Valve Time!
