Welcome to Sylestia!
I'm Orca, and I'm head of the newbie mentor group here on the site
Yep I know Beau, seen 'em around ><>
Anyways, some helpful links:
Newbie Welcoming group
The Sylestia Wiki (a little outdated but still helpful)
Walkthrough
and Newbie Mentoring group
Glassary
BTW just in case you don't know healers are a scam and don't get your potions form the marketplace, get cheap high-level pets off trade broker and check out the player guides forum for the missions guide, that's an easy way to get free stuff without too much effort. But that's easier when you have more pets/higher levels so....
You can also nurture, and when you get 1000 scales, go to the Scale Shop and buy some pet dyes, those sell very well on the broker
I'm also willing to give away pets and avi items so let me know if you want one
Some random tips:
Breeding.....Well, you can't really make too much profit from it anymore unless you have a themed, stattered pet, or something of that sort. Most things don't sell if they don't have lot of visibles/restricted trait sets,, aren't themed, are dishwasher pets, etc. Also price above 500g cuz the Releasers do release anything for sale that is under that-we're trying to help the economy and make pets actually worth it again
Healers are a huge scam. Do not. Do not. But do missions-theres a guide here
Guide to the Forums: here
Let me know if you got any questions-I'm happy to either answer them personally or direct you to someone who does

Hello! I hope you enjoy your time here! I've seen Beau around a couple of times.
What's your favorite Sylesti species?
Basic Guide (sorry, it's long):
Elements and Party
My favorite element is Shadow, and it's great for noobs as well. It's a tank element, so it can attack and heal at the same time. A variety of parties can be built around a shadow pet.
My recommended lineup for you party is:
Slot 1- Shadow (tanking and survival)
Slot 2- Light (for healing) or Water (if the enemy has special, damaging attacks)
Slot 3- Fire or Wind (you should alternate between these two elements. Wind for wave attacks and Fire for attacks of 2-3 enemies).
If you only have two party slots, you can place the tank in slot one and the offensive (fire or wind) in slot two.
Equipment and Battling
Having the right equipment for your pet can help a lot with battling. You want to check your pet's proficiencies and their correspondence to the equipment's before your pet wears them.
Focus on the strongest (enemy with the most stars) enemy first, then attack the rest. It'll make defeating the weaker enemies much easier. Try to rely on your Light or Tank pets for healing, rather than using Mend, since the ability won't be available when your pets are at critically low health. Only use it when your pets are below 75% health. Also, even if the enemy has a shield or ability to block all moves/damage, still try to attack with attack 1 or quick attack; you want enough Mana for more advanced/effective blows later on.
Breeding and Tamed Pets
Themed pets, pets with good stats, and high trait point pets are going to sell the most. Release all unwanted pets, since selling at low prices can destroy Sylestia's economy.
When encountering Wild Sylestis:
Gray text (Common) = 0 trait points
Green text (Uncommon) = 1 TP
Blue text (Rare) = 2 TP
Purple text (Epic) = 4 TP
Yellow text (Legendary) = 6 TP
Red text (Mythical) = 8 TP
Green text means Carried trait. They are worth 1 trait point and can only be seen after genetic testing.
Blue text means Visible trait. They're worth 2 trait points.
Purple text means a visible trait with a hidden carried trait underneath. They can only be seen through genetic testing.
Breeding Traits Guide:
Vis + Car = 50% Car 50% Vis
Car + Car = 50% Car 25% Vis 25% N/A
Vis + N/A = 100% Car
Car + N/A = 50% Car 50% N/A
Vis + Vis = 100% Vis
N/A + N/A = 100% N/A
Currency
The best ways to make gold are missions (especially the Very Hard ones). It's an extremely effective method, plus you could recieve equipment and other items. Battling is great as well, since some enemies may drop gold or equipment you can sell.
Diamonds require real money to buy, but you can also buy them at Currency Exchange. Some items and actions, such as buying a new stable or buying essences require diamonds.
Scales are earned through nurturing. For every correctly nurtured pet, you earn 1 scale (2 for nurture boosted). You can then spend your scales at the Scale Shop. Scales are a great way to earn gold, since you can sell the Philters from the Scale Shop at the Trade Broker for a lot of gold.
Stable Space
First of all, never move adolescent Sylestis into stables before they mature. Especially if you don't have much stable space. Leave them in the hatchery.
Stable tab 2 costs 20K
Stable tab 3 costs 60K
Stable tab 4 costs 120K
Stable tab 5 costs 240K
Stable tab 6 costs 480K
Stable tab 7 and 8 also cost 480K
A new stable costs 1K diamonds, but on events, they will be on sale for 400 dias.
This is my basic advice that I find really useful for me. More guides can be found in the Player Guides section.
Players in Sylestia are extremely friendly, so if you need any help, feel free to ask!

As a welcome gift, I'm going to send over 10K (through CoD) and this themed Lighira. Enjoy your time playing Sylestia!
