I've run into a bit of a problem as I explore with my lead wolf. Lots of encounters in explore (such as chomping the butterfly or the "delicious-smelling" scent trail) give your lead wolf a bit of hunger as they eat something. I honestly find these encounters really unnecessary. Once the lead wolf is at full hunger these encounters are just wasting energy, especially the butterfly one since watching the butterfly doesn't give you any rewards. I feel like some of these encounters should be changed to have different rewards or outcomes, or it could be made so that the lead wolf doesn't get these encounters if they're at full hunger. Thoughts?

Support! Hunger doesnt even affect your lead, since they cant run away.

I think a mechanic could easily be added that once you're at 100% hunger, the encounters no longer pop up. This would be super similar to like when we are collecting Lunar Energy and reach 100, we no longer get the lunar energy drops

Yes! I find it so annoying, the only buff to your lead having 100% hunger is faster energy regen

Agree. However, Id be fine with these encounters if they made a difference for the Fast Metabolism Talent (however as of this post, they do not).

With Fast Metabolism, if you feed your wolf to 100% you get a small boost of energy. With this Talent, you must go directly to your hoard and feed your Lead from there, resulting in the Boost Of Energy (by 5%) notification.

Why do these encounters (when your Lead Wolf, for example, is at 98% hunger and chomping the butterfly tops you off to 100%) NOT give you that boost of energy? It may just be in explore-- but you are still feeding your Lead Wolf to 100%. Even with Fast Metabolism, it doesn't give you that boost while meeting those credentials in Explore. It's a waste of time and Energy spent when it doesn't even apply to the Talent I spent my level-up point on and I've found it dumb since day 1 of the Talents release.

If they applied the encounters to the Metabolism Boost Talent I'd be fine with it. But otherwise, yes. It's a huge waste. 		Tuttletyke🌱(manta)

@Mantatyke

I use the Fast Metabolism Boost Talent and I fully agree. The fact that it doesn't work in explore makes this kind of useless talent even more useless (it barely gives you any energy, only 5%, compared to other talents that could expand the pack by 10 extra wolves or be able to immediately see a wolf's disposition in the befriending panel). Honestly it might even count as a bug since the lead wolf is being fed without an energy bonus.

I agree on this one.
