Every obtainable item in Flight Rising is stored in the player's inventory, called the Hoard. The Vault was added on October 24th, 2014.[1] A major update on October 22nd, 2020 changed the appearance of the hoard and added a search and sort function along with tags showing if the item is used at Baldwin's, Swipp's, Fiona's, or is for a Hibernal Den task.
Items are divided into eight categories: Food, Materials, Apparel, Familiars, Battle Items, Skins, Specialty, and Other.
There is no limit to the amount or kind of items a player can choose to keep. All items—with the exception of apparel, familiars, and skins/accents—stack up to 99, then begin a new stack. Apparel, familiars, and skins/accents do not stack; however, as of October 22nd, 2020, all items can create "virtual stacks" if a player has toggled this setting on. Virtual stacks combine all instances of an item into one stack with the total amount listed below. Virtual stacks are purely visual and upon clicking one, will bring the player to a separate page with the virtual stack separated into the normal stack amounts so they can interact with them properly.[2]
There is an option to auto-sell items from the Hoard instead of putting them on the Auction House for sale to other players. The price at which an individual item can be sold from the Hoard can be viewed by hovering over the item's icon and checking the sell value in the lower left corner. Make sure to always check prices when hoard selling items as some items—such as things required for Swipp trades or Hibernal Den tasks—can be sold for much, much more on the Auction House.
Vault[]
The Vault is a special secondary inventory, introduced on October 24, 2014, after overwhelming requests from users. It is accessed by clicking the toggle in the upper right corner of one's Hoard. Anything deposited in the Vault is entirely locked from usage: treasure and gems stored there are not available when purchasing items; items cannot be Hoard-sold or placed on the Auction House; food cannot be converted; chests cannot be opened; specialty items cannot be used.
For this reason, it is a very handy place to keep copies of awakened familiars, store items for Swipp trades, and hoard those super-special items you don't want to trade to Crim.
Item Tabs[]
Food[]
The Food tab houses all of the food items you collect. Your clan can accumulate food items by using the Gathering system, battling in the Coliseum, or via purchase on the Auction House. It is from this tab that you convert your food items into food points so that they may be fed to your dragons.
Materials[]
Anything that may assist your clan in crafting is stored in the Materials tab. This includes things like ores, minerals, animal skins, and organic plant life that cannot be eaten. Materials are most often found by scavenging or fighting in the Coliseum.
Apparel[]
This tab is where all of your unequipped apparel is kept. If a dragon is not currently wearing a piece of apparel, it will display here. Once a piece of apparel is equipped, it will disappear from the Hoard until unequipped.
Familiars[]
Your collection of familiars are housed in this tab. Familiars are items that can be assigned to your dragons, and just like apparel, will disappear while in use. Familiars can also be viewed in your clan's bestiary.
Battle Items[]
Items that can assist your dragons in the Coliseum are stored in the battle items tab. This includes things like battle stones and health potions.
Skins[]
This tab is be where all of your clan's custom skins and accents will be placed. Skins are special pieces of apparel that, once equipped, will change the color and designs on your dragon. They can be purchased in the auction house, marketplace, or even designed by you (for a price in gems)!
Specialty[]
This tab was added to the Hoard on June 8, 2016,[3] with the introduction of forum vistas. It houses gene and breed-change scrolls, Scrolls of Renaming, Eternal Youth, and Maturity, Boons of Fertility, Scenes, and the aforementioned vistas.
Other[]
Anything that does not fall into any of the previous categories is kept in the Other tab. This includes trinkets, chests, and dragon eggs. Before the introduction of the Specialty tab, it also housed everything that was moved to the new category.
Trivia[]
- Sometimes items do not wait until there is exactly 99 in the item stack before creating a new stack. In very rare cases stacks of 100 can be made.
- With the Hoard update on October 22nd, 2020, players can 'clean up' the incomplete stacks and force items to complete the full 99 stack. Clicking an incomplete stack will show a dustbrush icon at the bottom of its interface that will consolidate the items into proper stacks.[4]
