Item/service to raise chance of finding a befriendable wolf in explore

Yeah, I think I saw more chased/rechased wolves than I did with starred ones. And the starred... well, yeah, glass. Glass everywhere, everyone and their dog get glass.

Even if they don't up chances, an item that works similarly to Catnip on Lioden would definitely up the chances of finding them, since it would attract wolves to you, meaning the server would have to generate more of them, and hopefully generate the ones with 3+ stars.

Also damn, a year of playing and you saw the first 3 star wolf? That's some insanely shitty rng there on those.

I've chased several nice wolves and they never come back to game. 

I find chased  --> T1 with 1 mark. 

There just needs to be a DELETE/Attack wolf option so people don't have to chase junk.

@Dezzy, that... Has nothing to do with my suggestion? I am proposing an item that makes finding wolves more common in the explore, not a way to delete a wolf.

Ok.
An item just gives people with money a better chance to find stuff to make them more money selling.
I don't support a paid item.
- everyone has the same chance. I like that better.
Unless .. it was item that everyone got .. like once a month? or in event? that be ok

It's an item that would be available at a Raccoon store if the suggestion is taken, so it won't be expensive. While I would love the delete option for wolves this is a completely different suggestion, one that you can make, or, if it's already done - support.

As for item - the one on sister site, Lioden, is pretty cheap, ups your chance of finding lionesses and everyone likes it. Because it doesn't up the chance of finding a chased lioness - it ups chance of finding ANY lioness. I am proposing a thing that works the same. It won't up chance of finding chased/starred wolf, it will just up chance of finding ANY befriendable wolf.

I see.
I guess I don't understand because I find way to many nbw as it is.
I thought it was for finding chased.

It did come from finding only potatoes, but it's mostly because most of us go to explore, find this one wolf they can befriend, boom, potato. And then find another one after days of exploring. Which is why I decided to suggest this item, to be able to use it, have a 30 minutes/1 hour of having more chances of finding a wolf that can be befriended, and if that ends up being a chased/higher stars wolf? Great, got lucky, I am not asking to change the chances of finding one of those. Just asking to be able to actually find any wolves, it will also help with the befriend a wolf quest from snake, which, in turn, could give back portion of what you paid for the item if you finish the quest.

Not trying to get too far off topic, but that "delete" option might be in the works for later on. Lioden has something like that...the Reserve. It costs energy to sent to the Reserve, but you receive positive Karma in return, and that lioness is scrubbed from the game. There is also a negative Karma option in Kill. As Wolvden doesn't have Karma yet, these options might come into play when it does. We now have the Enclave for abandoning pups the way Lioden has the Giving Tree for cubs.

I would still like the Wolvden version of Catnip, though...it would drastically increase the encounters with NBWs for a half hour, most will be potatoes, but I always found there was at least one or two nice Chaseds when it came to the lionesses. I don't specifically look for NBWs, mostly only when I get that quest...I am terrible at successfully claiming them. So anything that could keep even potato NBWs to keep coming to me until I can befriend one is a plus for me.

No support for raising the rate of chased wolves. Chaseds are exciting and valuable because they're rare; making them more common would make the chased wolf economy just as bad as the rest of the wolf economy.

Support for some way to raise the chance of befriend encounters generally, and higher-starred wolves. I've only ever found two 3-star wolves, and nothing higher. Maybe it could be part of the upcoming skill trees - a passive that makes your lead better at finding new allies.

I mean, you are pointing out something I didn't suggest, Lionel :)

All I am suggesting is an item that ups the overall chance of finding a wolf in explore, that doesn't affect the chased/rated wolf rates at all :)
