So yesterday, when me and a guildy were leveling our sprites, [insert name here] mentioned this neat little rule [insert gender here] made up with about minerals and the Sprites' favorite/required foods.

So like, I have the Maskeraith, right? And [insert name here] has the Drakon. Maskeraith needs Dark Matter for Dark Motes, and Drakon needs Crimsonite for Power motes (Also Luminite for Seraphinx) So here's how it works:

IF SOLO:

~Take the mineral your Sprite needs. Disregard the everything else.

~If that mineral doesn't exist, then just take the biggest of what ever there is just like old times.

IF PARTY:

~Do the same as the previous rule mentioned

~If your mineral doesn't exist, then pick up a mineral that your other team-mate(s) need(s). Help them out.

~If either minerals for either sprites don't exist, then just take the biggest one just like old times.

~(By Fehzor) Always take the biggest. If all the minerals are the same size, then pick up yours.

Eez gud. Ja?

Order of preference:
-Largest Red/Yellow/Purple; if there is a tie, your colour.
-Everything else.

When I party up with my Guildmembers we just prioritise Sprite minerals (Yellow, purple and red) over non-Sprite (blue and green) of the same size. Otherwise we still just get the biggest minerals and make Sprite Food for each other if we each need it.

It's a really good thing that I saved up 300 dark matters before the update. My maskraith is going to be fat by the time I used it all :)

nope

Say i need divine stone, i have 4 luminites and 13 crimsonites, i hit a luminite crystal - i get smallest, then i hit crimsonite crystal, i get biggest, take the crimsonite, because then you can swap it for divine stone because 15 mineral = stone, stone traded with stone = stone. That is a better tatic.

I have over 1300 Dark Matter

I have over 1300 Dark Matter because it was worth so little I never sold it, the only mineral I ever really sold was Luminite.

I got a Kat ;_;

I, and a lot of my guildmates, do what Fehzor said. Reason being even if it is not the color you need for your pet, you can make an item out of it and trade it to with your guildmates/friends for one that you do need.

I expect there will be sprites in the future that use blue and green minerals, but at the moment they are second rate to the others for obvious reasons.
