It is important to note that you can move chat boxes outside of the main chat box by clicking on the chat box title, holding and draging it somewhere else on your UI.

Eggs

Introduction
When completing quests you will often get Eggs as a reward (or potential reward):

If you want you can crack open the eggs to get consumable items by right-clicking the eggs. However what is even better is if you are patient and combine the eggs using Ovomeld to get a Fortune Egg which gives better consumables.

Ovomeld
You can buy Ovomeld from the general shops and use them on eggs which you will get from quests at varying levels:

Combining Eggs into a Fortune Egg
To combine Eggs first make sure you have the following in your inventory: Lucky Eggs, a Destiny Egg and an Ovomeld (from general shop). You can only combine Eggs of the same level (either I, II, III or IV) and you must have the corresponding level of Ovomeld to do so. When you are ready to combine the Eggs, just right click the Ovomeld (I suggest putting the Ovomeld in your skill bar, so you can combine Eggs easily when waiting).

For example, to create a Fortune Egg IV you will need the following:
4 Lucky Eggs IV + 1 Destiny Egg IV + 1 Ovomeld IV = 1 Fortune Egg IV

Potential rewards with % occurrence
Lucky Egg I:
Lucky Egg II:
Lucky Egg III:
Lucky Egg IV:

Destiny Egg I:
Destiny Egg II:
Destiny Egg III:
Destiny Egg IV:

Fortune Egg I: Fine Crystal (lvl 11 and 23)
Fortune Egg II: Fine Crystal (lvl 23 and 35)
Fortune Egg III: Fine Crystal (lvl 35 and 48)
Fortune Egg IV: Fine Crystal (lvl 48 and 58)

While it is important to note that eggs are great to get crystals, the best way is via the engine of mischief and using crystals you don’t need.
