Faerie Fragments App Update: New Event + Skill Leveling

Following a period of maintenance, a new update was released for Faerie Fragments this morning. The app update itself was pushed earlier this week, so you may not even need to update your app!




New Event
Another in-app event has started: Soup's On! The event runs from today through 2am NST on September 23. NEW: The prize shop will only stay open a few hours past the end of the event, until 7pm on September 23, rather than a few extra days like in previous events.

The event is similar in mechanics to what we've seen before. Clear levels, complete daily quests, collect Bronze Coins, and earn in-app prizes, including more "Fragments" to unlock Ascor.

There is also a paid event track with additional prizes for $6.99 USD (this will increase to $9.99 after the first two weeks of the event).

You can also earn an exclusive item prize on Neopets.com. If you have NeoPass connected and earn 3,000 Bronze Coins during the event, you will earn a new exclusive item.



Skill Leveling
A new feature has been added that will allow you to increase the power of partner abilities. This can be done by collecting a new in-game currency: materials. Currently, these can be earned as both threshold and prize shop prizes from the new event.


The two new materials

As of this update, only Jorett's abilities can be powered up, which you can do through the Journal. Look forward to a Jellyneo guide on this new mechanic soon!




New Achievements
To go along with skill leveling, some new Achievements are available for collecting materials and for upgrading Jorett. The top Achievement for upgrading Jorett's skill awards a brand new album item!



Endless Challenge Prize Update
There are new Endless Challenge prizes for the next two cycles.

yeahh finally the partner skills are getting some attention. I was VERY disappointed when I realized Nephrite and Ascor just straight up re-use Varia's and Jorett's skills, respectively. They even do the same dance moves... kinda disappointing if you consider how much effort it takes to unlock them both

Oh they put some in the paid track of the progression. I really should not have expected otherwise. ...they're in the event shop too? I haven't done the math yet, but this is going to make how much effort I need to put in for each event so much worse, I bet.

so burnt out from this game

this is awesome, now my only complaint is that they need to make other modes like endless mode and what not give you 25 tokens a level just like the normal levels. they are equally hard.

Looking at Jorett's updated skills... yeah he'll still stink. He's a precision tool in a game where that's rarely more useful than something big.

I still don't see a point to ever use any other ability than the bomb ability. None of the other abilities are even remotely close to as useful as a giant board clear.

Back to the tower I go

The only reason I ever use a partner other than Varia is for the achievements and badges. No way in Moltara am I going to ever going to get the Partner Neopet Endless Challenge achievements.

Tia's ability can create enough chaos that it's almost a Rainbow Neg power-up, but it's usually not as good as a big bomb. The boomerang is straight up garbage.

FYI - the button and link in the post go to the previous event
by dreww355 on August 27, 2026 9:44 PM NST
Being able to pick where the boomerang goes is great and strategic - too bad it's locked behind getting to the current max level which will take who knows how long... as everyone notes, the bomb is the only straight good option.

ACHIEVEMENT DOES NOT LINK UP.. YOU DON'T GET THE PRIZE ON NEOPETS AS IT IS NOT TICKED OFF EVEN YOU ACHIEVED IT ON THE GAME REWARDS..

This game is so crazy lol. I have almost every achievement and I've gone through the cycle of finishing all the levels and then starting over at the first level again so many times now I can't even recall exactly how many. I have so many power-ups I only use in Endless Mode. I always have at least 100k coins on hand. I play near-constantly when events are taking place. So I'm pretty good and pretty fast. But I'm still usually not quick enough to grab the top 5000-point prize in the events before the first refresh bc I just can't get the 5k points quickly enough, even when I use my coins to get the 50% booster. Are people just grinding that fast?? Is it because I've never spent money on the game? I don't get it 😭😭 Maybe I need to lock in harder lol.

Also it's an interesting choice to choose Jorett as the first partner Neopet to get a level-up route before Varia, but it is what it is. I'll be leveling him up either way - maybe he'll be more useful in Endless Mode if I can figure out how to weaponize the precision element. Usually for Endless Mode I prefer Tia, but we'll see.

Drats, I missed that Book being an Endless prize or I would have played for it!
Need to read!
