Keel Hauliday 2022!
Arr what else to tell ye... Angrybeard be back in his galley, needin' help wit' the vermin, whilst Rathskellar Inn ain't only where us pirates be sleepin' but where ye can also pick up a fine meal to cure yer scurvy if ye wish. Don't ye be insulting the good wench Babette, either! She'll 'ave ye guts fer garters!
Translation: Hello again, people of the land! The Freyalise Trading Co. are back from our travels and we'll be docking in Port Plunder for the next 10 days while we have a little rest, meet our old friends, perform various business transactions and refuel for our next voyage. If you find our good friend Carl, tell him we're grateful for his continuing service in advertising our wares, and we definitely have only good feeling for him.
Now, what else to report... ah yes! Angrybeard is once again requiring your kindhearted assistance sprucing up his kitchen after the long journey, and his dear wife: the lovely Babette, is serving up a storm in her fine establishment, the Rathskellar Inn. Try the fish! It's delicious!
All quests have been reset.

Since the Freyalise Shop is a write-off. I have tried Carl for items. Sadly, none off the new items are being given out. On top of endless errors and lag, this pretty much sums up the entire event...not worth the bother.

Well if my anxiety was not bad enough, this waiting and refreshing has topped it off! There is books I need that I have not even seen. I do not know if people are using bots to snag these items but this sucks.

I don't know if my luck has suddenly gotten better, if everyone else just gave up, or if staff helped us out a little bit...but I am finally seeing restock in Freyalise. I'm excited! If it was staff, thank you. :)

I was excited about a pirate-themed holiday, but it looks like Freyalise is a lot like the donation tree in Ye Olde Neopets - you have to just click like mad on whatever you can, immediately and blindly, and hope it's something decent and that someone else doesn't beat you to it. Except at least the donation tree showed you what was available at any given second. I've never seen anything for sale at Freyalise. What
I agree with @Solas. Why get excited about the h(au)liday if there's no chance of actually taking part in the festivities? Thank goodness for the Free Shop.

There's never anything in the Freyalise shop. Even when I watch it roll over to "restocked now". I've never seen a single item in there. Ever.
I have questions:
1) How many items are usually stocked at a time? (I wouldn't personally know as I've never seen even 1 item)
2) Is there a timer to prevent a small handful of people getting everything on every restock?
I do enjoy the events and I appreciate the work that staff puts into them. Its just not feeling very fun at the moment for this one. It feels like things could be spread out a little more so that everyone has a chance to enjoy the holiday not just a small group of people who know how to clean out restocks in 1 nano-second. Can't you at least make 1 color of each new item a "common" and share them with everyone? I don't care about the rarity of the things or if they cost 2k or 1mil. I saw all those awesome new items show up in the wardrobe, got excited, and then realized that I'll never have them because they're from the Freyalise shop. :(

I just want to thank those who have given some tips and hints to how to get items from the shop that I pretend doesn't exist. I appreciate you, and have for the first time in history, managed to restock some items.
Thank you. I hate this holiday. But thank you.
Ps. I hate the holiday because I don't have the kinda life where I can restock for days on end to get all the stuff I want/need so I usually ignore it because the stress ain't worth it.

Took like 10 minutes to restock. Had toooons of 500 errors. Finally restocked. Then restocked like 3 more times 😅😅

Well, the shop's restock officially broke schedule for what's probably the first time this entire event? (not overly upset, but just found the deviation interesting)

Is there any news on whether they'll have bigger restocks so people with slightly slower connections can get a chance at the items in Freyilse?

Definitely depends on your internet connection/speed - I have been able to grab two things per refresh but only if I don't see what I am clicking. So it's more of a grab bag than a thoughtful restock lol
2
Spatial
still feel like this whole holiday is a lucid gaslightiing trip bc i never see anything in the shop lol
i guess props to ppl who claim they can grab 3 things at once, but the better a select a few are at grabbing everything, the less chance there is for everyone else to get even 1???
"refresh like mad lol xd xd" okay but it takes 20 seconds for the page to load once even in the middle of the (usa) night??? and half time get timeout error pages??

i definitely think it depends on your computer speed, i have a really fast connection and sometimes have been able to grab two items in a restock. i just start refreshing as soon as it said 'stocked 5min ago' and just grab something the moment i see it! no think just buy!! ofc there are always people faster than me and i havent been able to get stuff at all at times

I've been having a hard time restocking (as had been the case w a lot of people) BUT I have gotten a few of the clothing/wearable items from the Ocean Depths vending machine, for those who want to try another avenue.
We still have over a week for this event; try not to get too flustered, everyone!

I know I get extra quests, I said 15. :P I do have a Gold Account, we use to be able to do 30 quests until they changed everything Ive been here 15 years Ive seen many changes.

SheDevil
Since restocking is extremely hard and with a very rare chance of getting any of the new Keel items from the Free Shop why cant you increase the amount of Carl's quests we can do, that may help us have a chance of getting something from him. 15 quests isnt much of a chance.

ToxicBaby
I finally managed to grab one of the tails and I'm in shock xD
Yes, it's hard. That's part of it. It's a pirate holiday?
Anyways, thank you for also having the free shop open during this time, my sleep schedule is vastly messed up and I've managed to grab a lot for my collections, to burn (make into crystals), annnnd of course to keep; all while I wait for a chance to grab one of the ✨cosmic✨ minions 😅

Every year, I never get any single of these items. I had to BUY through the users' stores. No matter how hard I tried. Stock shouldn't meant to be here if it's an event.

Dang, I refreshed the page within a second of it being restocked, and everything is gone already, this is like the fifth time. I have yet to be able to get anything at all. People are so fast lol.

Immortelle
Please, Subeta Team, do something about Freyalise restocks. It's impossible to grab something and very frustrating. :(
It stocks a tiny amount of items each time and even if I'm there and click immediately, everything gets sold out in less than two seconds.

1- Grab random pencil I know you have thrown in some corner of your table
2- Open random shop
3- Make dot in random item
4- Return to Frey
5- Keep cursor on top of dot
6- At the 6th minute, refresh it with the fury of a thousand suns
7- ???
8- Profit
Keep in mind steps 6 and 7 are the most important ones. You are fighting against hundreds of stalkers for a dozen items. Don't expect to find something in there in the first days after 40 seconds of restock just because it says "Restocked Now!", that now is as good a measure as Subeta's "soon™".

Just wanted to chime in and say I enjoy this holiday. :) Yes, it's hard to restock Freyalise, but I like the fact that the mechanics of the holiday are different from all the others. It's exciting trying to wait for the 6 minute restock and hope I get an item LOL. And being able to get Keel items from Carl or vending also helps make the holiday more fun, there's an element of luck involved so I always feel excited and lucky to get an item!

It's too hard to restock anything on a phone and in order for me to get on a computer I need to move where there is internet oo well at least I have the free shop

If anyone wants any specific item please let me know. I work night shift and usually hang around subeta during events to collect things. If i happen to nab the item i can send it :)

@iciness' tips are great, thank you! managed to snag an item. it feels like free shop 2.0: we just click and accept whatever we can get. haha! (wowie i was never good at restocking at that other petsite, but this could be entertaining.)

"Restocked Now! There are no items stocked"
There's never anything there. I wish this event was fun instead of frustrating. Please stock the shop decently. Thank you.

Yessss Freyalise :tada: Some additional tips for those who want to try but are frustrated by the restocking, compiled and posted last year by Laur and myself:
- Like other shops, Frey normally restocks (RSes) every 6th minute. When it says "Restocked 5 minutes ago," it's time to get ready for the RS! Note that it can RS earlier or later, but the 6th minute rule is the norm.
- Like other shops, newest items will always RS at the end/bottom of the screen.
- If you're RSing on a computer, when you click on an item to try and buy it, open the item in a new tab (Command + click on a Mac, Ctrl + click on windows) - this means you can click on multiple items to try to RS them without having to click 'back' to get to the main shop page after each one
- When it gets to be about time to refresh, scroll down a bit so that you'll see more items in your field of vision upon RS. You don't want to be scrolling after the RS since it wastes time.
- Right before the 6th minute rolls around (once it's said 'restocked 5 minutes ago' for 45+ seconds), I start refreshing constantly. When I catch the RS, sometimes I'll refresh one more time because my first one may have caught it before all of the items had been added. If you have a slower connection, best to keep up the page the first time you see items.
- Unlike other shops that tend to RS around the same seconds-after-the-minute, Frey jumps all over the place to make it more difficult and give more people a chance to snag items. This means that you'll want to constantly refresh until the RS on the 6th minute.
- Double or triple RSes are possible, where more items will appear after the initial RS
- Having a good internet connection is very important (and not being on a really old computer/device that is slow)
With all that said.... come join us on the RS & Chat topic! Whether you're a pro or having trouble RSing, we are very friendly and happy to do our best and try to help out. Come ask questions, post your restocks, commiserate about missing restocks, etc :) And best of luck restocking!

Personally love Keel Holiday. I enjoy restocking, and there is not much else revolving around it anymore. But I get it's frustrating. Sometimes, I get nothing. Sometimes, though, I get lucky. Like I just restocked a just by clicking the right item at the right time.

The restock goes way too fast I will pass on this holiday and buy what I need from users shops if it's reasonable

since hours up to 800 ppl here and i think they are all in Freyalise shop... 😮 restock may 5 items or smaller... ok, is like every year... first days are for hunters, but is frustrating too like every year. .. it would be sooo helpful if a good and full restock comes 24 hours, not only if the USA is here.... may some of u remember the holiday shop... same thing... MET at day, nothing.. here are so many countrys, come in diff. time, pls give all of us a normal chance... we all love the "time" shops and if u no got even one wish item if they close something is going wrong...
Happy 18.th Subeta... 🙋

I do wish this was more like the free shop, where it stocks a ton of items at restock, or like the subeautique where if there's just a couple items at a time then they cost a pretty penny and there's a limited time to get them but there's actually more of a chance to get them. I know others will be happy for rarity and expensive items they can resell, but it still kinda sucks for anyone who can't get their hands on an item at all.

To those who are frustrated about the Freyalise Trading Co. being out of stock all the time: I totally understand how you feel. I've been there last year. I'm terrible at restocking and Keel Hauliday is the only time of the year that I take part in it. Here is my "wisdom":
- Try to avoid peek times (like now). When all of America is awake and online the site lags because everybody tries to get an item. I know that for some people it is not possible to be online when many others aren't, but it sure does help a lot.
- Check the item directory. Look at the pictures, check the rarity, decide what you want to get.
- Start to refresh when it says Restocked 4 minutes ago. The shop usually stocks every 5 minutes approximately.
- Don't look at the top of the page but focus on the area where the items will apear. Have your cursor ready at a point where an item is likely to appear.
- If the shop restocks, don't think. You have to make your decision in the blink of an eye.
- Some find it easier to restock on the phone because it shows more items at once.
- Be patient. This is the first day of Keel Hauliday. It gets less busy with every passing day.
- Some items drop significantly in price, so you may even be lucky and buy them cheaper from user shops.
Good luck!

Luckily, this is the only restocking holiday. For those wondering why it says just restocked with no items, there were items! Things just go very fast. I purposely made sure to do lower rarities than precious years for items. You can also try your luck vending and doing Carl's quests for Frey items. There's also a very high chance some of these will pop up in the Free Shop. <3

The lag for that last restock, oof 😅😂
Anyways, I know every event is gonna upset people. But I think I'm just gonna focus on free shop and quests (for the first time in forever 😬) until the traffic dies down 😅

Maybe make the shop gives us 3 options of items to buy instead of having us go in see that it was recently restocked with no items in because the limit is so hard it's just frustration?
