My second pixpet, Aria the Feliphene, hasn't been finding any items while hoarding. She is gaining exp as normal, but when she returns it shows all blank slots.

I thought it might be due to me sending out both her and my Canisqua at the same time, so I sent her out on a hoard alone to the same results. My other pet has been returning with items as normal.

Obtaining items & PC is completely random, I'm going to assume RNG. So some pets will return with nothing. It is sad but happens. :c I'd recommend using potions on them to boost what you're looking for specifically.

( Unless it literally is bugging and not showing anything, in which case my bad. ><' )

Could be, but even the EXP isn't showing in one of the slots like it has been for my other pet (unless I'm very mistaken). She is leveling up though, so she's still getting the EXP.

I'm guessing that even though they come back and gain EXP it'll only show if you actually brought back an item or items/coins in general. My pet Dolly came back with nothing and basically that was it.

The higher level though the more chances I believe you have at actually having your pets bring back items. I could be wrong but I think higher levels mean better chances at finding things from what I have read at least back when I was going over the tutorials and beginners guide obviously.

Edit: Actually you CAN see what Exp and such your Pets brought back from their hoards if they didn't bring back any items! When you go to your pets page before you send them on a hoard it'll be with the rest of their basic information under where it states that they can hoard again :)

Same thing just happened to me :o, usually it should show you the PC and EXP even if I had no items but it just did it automatically.

There is a small chance your pet will find nothing. If that happens then your pet will find a small amount of exp, which is displayed under their stats in writing and their item slots are empty.

If they find nothing, they will immediately be able to hoard again. (from my experience)

This is not a glitch and, but is intended behavior.

It usually happens when you send your pet out with low sLVL

I get the able to hoard again part, but I'm not sure not even showing the PC and Hoard EXP is intended behavior. For instance, by third hoard with my Veemoth was alone and it only got EXP and PC. My fourth hoard was with Canisqua at the same time, and it was a failure again seeing how it recovered automatically but didn't even show the item inventory with the EXP and PC, but of course it shows it in the inventory under the name. I just find it pretty weird that it does that.

"When there are no finds and the resting time is already over. then its only showing the summary of the last hoard (gained HEXP and PCs)."

From a previous issue like this. Could be fully rested while I was sleeping then. If it was this case that would mean the automatic being able to hoard again part is untrue or I have bad memory?

I think I get what you’re saying

Yes it is intended because even “find nothing” hoards so to speak will net you a small amount of exp and pc so it’s intended for that to show. However it is much least exp/pc found than it would have gotten should it have found them via the item list

If a pet went to fully rested while you were asleep, you would still be able to see the items it found and add them to your inventory. There is no time of which you can lose them. Therefore automatic rest time due to finding nothing might be taking place if you aren’t seeing any hoard finds (or your pet just found hexp and pc)

It is not guaranteed to get items and coins while hoarding. An occasional event and eggs are rare without potion.

As everyone here pointed out, it's not guaranteed that your pet will find items from hoarding other than XP. You can, however, increase the chance of your pet finding items by giving them potions before you send them hoarding.

Potions aren’t everything. Usually retaining a decent slvl will Keep your pet finding something every hoard or at least most of them

A decent slvl can be maintained through furniture and of course interactions (a max of 30 comes from interactions.)

Yes thats true, but like I said. My Veemoth's third hoard had a waiting time of around three hours as I remember and all it got was PC and EXP. So its either my memory is bad or the automatic recovery for hoard failures is just a theory.

From personal experience I can tell you it is not just a theory

Back when there were no large WU decoration items and before hoards had undergone balancing changes in beta, pets like Sunobra, Fluffpaxa and Noo-Long would often return with nothing on their hoards with an insta option to go back out even at max slvl

Nowadays it really only happens with low slvl.

Promise I’m speaking from beta experience :P

Sometimes it’s that’s it did find hexp and pc and did have a weight time

You’ll know by the AMOUNT displayed. A smaller amount will mean that “nothing” was found

Since I edited my previous post I wanted to point out that you will get information if your pet doesn't bring anything back. It's a bit of a weird thing because sometimes it happens where you see it in the list and other times you won't see it.

If you do not see anything (like experience for example) check under your pets information where it will usually say "X pet is out on a hoard" or "X pet is ready to hoard again" and this will give you information about what your pet brought back from it's previous hoard. This is what I found out recently when I saw it on my pets page. Hope this helps some people who might be confused!

I have changed the behavior now, so that pets will find PCs on EVERY hoard. I wanted to do that since the beta though and never got to it.
