Board Thread:General Discussion/@comment-5833912-20131111170637

This thread is for discussion about exactly how the Wishing Torches work. Please do not post friend codes here, there are already several threads dedicated to that.

It would also help keep the thread compact if people would only post new information, and not things like "I don't know" or "Thanks."

Obviously, the big question is, "How much do the torches improve your chances to breed a rare monster?" I'm inclined to guess that it's 5% or less per torch, since that would improve your chances, but not ensure a successful breed, even with all 10 lit.

A second question is, "Do the torches work when you first breed, or later when the egg is produced?" For example, if I start breeding with no torches lit, then light 10 torches before the egg appears, will the torches have an effect? Or must they be lit before selecting the monsters to breed?

And third, are rare monsters defined only as Legendary and Ethereal, or do the torches help if I'm trying to breed a standard 4-element monster (such as Entbrat)?

If you have data to contribute, please post!
