Custom Wearable Changes!
Item not found: loveable floral ram horns
Unbelievably Cute Whale Shark Cuddle Buddy
Spilt Bowl of Water


Hello, everyone! We have pushed a few new changes to custom wearables tonight that we think you all will enjoy.



• You can now release batches in multiples of 5 rather than 10! The first page of CW submission is nearly identical, but you are now selecting the number of items rather than the number of batches. To ensure we can accommodate both pre-existing as well as new CWs, everything will still be in multiples of 10. However, on the second page you will be able to slot as few as 5 users. If you are submitting additional batches of an already-accepted item, you will notice that the batches will only let you fill five, but the same number of items still exists—you would just have to do two batches to fill 10 additional items.



Please make sure you note this when you are listing how many CWs total an item will have! Saying it is "Two batches total" will now be for 10 items, rather than 20. This is for any new items being released -- you do not need to go back and change already-released CWs or CWs that are currently in the queue at the time of this news posting.



• Do you submit a lot of recolors? If so, be sure to check out the new Recolor Management page! From here, you can mark which of your items have recolors for easier management. When you submit a recolor of an item, there is now a spot on the custom wearable submission form to select which item it is a recolor of -- this will also be flagged for me in the queue!



Already-accepted items that are now being flagged as recolors will need a quick approval once you enable recolors on them. For this, the items do not need to match, but the overlays need to be identical OTHER than their colors. Actual physical differences will still be considered separate items.



• Various CW pages are now cleaned up around the site, which will be especially useful for those of you that submit a lot of items! By popular demand, custom wearable shops will no longer show items that have maxed out their sales. Even better, items that are 100% "sold out" (for example, an item that was one batch only) will no longer show on your CW management page!



We're very excited to push these changes and to get started on more!

For a complete list of the newest items that are now readable, check out my post on the make this readable etc. thread. We love taking suggestions to improve item usage, including consistency! You can see what other changes I've made for consistency tonight as well as suggest other options on this thread.

? Security Alert ?


Security Alert!





Over the last week there has been a leak of data from Cloudflare, which is a CDN (content delivery network) in front of major sites on the internet, including Subeta. More importantly, it includes much larger sites like some listed here.







It's unclear exactly how much data was leaked in this method, or where it is still visible, and we will be monitoring the situation as more information comes out.



What can you do?





We advise changing your passwords on affected sites, and enabling two factor authentication where possible.



What is Subeta doing?





We will be rotating our private HTTPS keys.



Subeta does not store your password in plain text, so no one has the ability to access that even if Subeta data was leaked - but we will be changing our secret hashes for passwords, so any that were leaked cannot be used.

Hello, everyone! I hope you're all enjoying Survival. I must admit I got a little distracted from the festivities, as I was sorting through old boxes in the library's basement. But, wonder of wonders, I found a good number of old retired Survival restockables there! I don't need to hold on to all of them, so I invite you to stop by and do my quests. I'll be giving out these items until the end of the holiday!

Cash Shop: Rusted Tin of Wrole Fangs




Rusted Tin of Wrole Fangs




Legend has it that the Underground was not dug out by the unliving, but by a large fearsome creature known as the Wretched Wrole, with the unliving simply moving into the series of large caves that seemed quite abandoned. On occasion, an unliving soul would come across a strange chipped tooth-like object stuck into a wall, and some would keep them in tins for good luck. There was speculation on where these supposed teeth chips came from - the great Wretched Wrole was surely not real? After years of finding no trace of their owner, the speculation dwindled.



But a rumbling has been felt in the Underground tunnels. The Wretched Wrole is not legend after all! It's sharp teeth have grown back after a period of hibernation, and it's ready to cause some serious structural damage to the Underground!



Save the Underground! Grab a Rusted Tin of Wrole Fangs from the Cash Shop and ready your weapons! The Underground is counting on you.



The Diseased Croc Claw will be retiring on March 1st from the Cash Shop.

Merana Returns With Hydrus Quests!
Hello, I’m Titania McGee with Channel 5 News, your best source for up-to-date information.



Merana has been located off the southern coast of Veta. Currently it’s not thought that she’s an immediate threat, but she’s being monitored while authorities look further into the situation and decide upon what action to take.



Right now, it appears that she’s being spotted on somewhat random days from the coastlines of the Subetan lands. She’s appearing for 12 hours at a time, always appearing and disappearing on the hour. It’s believed that her current appearance will only last until midnight ST tonight, however.



Users are able to complete Merana’s hydrus pet quests in the time she’s visible, but once she leaves the map the quest is automatically quit. It is believed that her power is currently limited, and she must retreat back to the ocean to recharge, but we have not had a confirmation of this from Merana herself.



This is Titania McGee with Channel 5 News, and we will keep you updated if anything new comes to light! Signing off!



Note: The Miracle Potion now has hydrus as an option.







Come greet me again if you can find me and I’ll give your pet me blessing. It’s been far too long since I made a new hydrus child. I seen this new creature, the zasaba, him was 'appy to be made hydrus if you wanting your own.

Greetings, Subetans. Our magic is not yet strong enough to open up the Coda Caves for this month - that will come tomorrow, but for now we would like to present to you a pet we've been working on the blessing of recently - the galactic zentu!

Moving Pet Treasure Slots!
Shoebox Of Treasured Memories
Spilled Treasure Urn
Treasure Pile Beanbag
Pirate Treasure Chest




Have you ever wanted to move empty treasure slots from one pet to another? Well, today is your lucky day!



You can access this new feature from the page you organize your pet’s treasure chest. You’ll see a button below buy slots that says Transfer Slots From Other Pets. By clicking that button, you’ll be brought to page that will show you how many slots that particular pet has and will give you a list of available treasure slots you can transfer over from other pets!



It will cost you sP to move treasure slots, but they are cheaper than buying new slots. Below are the prices:



  • 40,000 sP to move 1 slot
  • 175,000 sP to move 5 slots
  • 300,000 sP to move 10 slots
  • 750,000 sP to move 25 slots




There is a minimum of 3 treasure slots per pet, so any of your pets with less than 4 slots will not show up on the transfer treasure slots page. None of your pets that are using all of their treasure slots will show, either!



If you have a Gold Account, you have access to the bulk transfer page. This page informs you of how many treasure slots you have between all of your pets and allows you to move more than 1, 5, 10 or 25 at a time!
