Angry Birds Evolution - How To Get Shiny Birds
Deck out your bird roster with our essential tips on how to unlock Shiny Birds.
Rovio's latest free-to-play title Angry Birds Evolution presents players with a number of new gameplay mechanics, chief among which is the opportunity to unlock, train, and level up a series of different birds. Not all birds are created equal, however — players will find birds of star ratings from 1 to 5, and those are in addition to especially-rare Shiny variants of existing birds. Getting Shiny Birds isn't easy, however, and the process involves an element of luck. Fortunately, we've got all the tips players need to start finding more Shiny Birds in Angry Birds Evolution.
How To Get Shiny Birds In Angry Birds Evolution
Earning Shiny Birds in Angry Birds Evolution is very straightforward — players have a chance of unlocking a special shiny variant of any given bird any time they discover a bird, hatch a bird in the hatchery, or unlock them through eggs. Since the chance of unlocking a Shiny Bird remains constant throughout the game, the only real way to increase the chances of a bird being shiny is to continually unlock or hatch birds through other means.
There is an alternative method, however: players have a chance of finding a Shiny Totem through a chest drop after a successful battle. Using these items, players are able to increase a bird's experience points by melding the totem together with the bird being leveled up.
Naturally, Shiny Birds have more than a shimmering facade — Shiny Birds also have vastly increased XP values when compared to normal birds. This also means they sell at higher values, which can help with players looking to track down even more experience and gold coins.
