Development Update #14

Buy potato pups or get pups from the enclave, since adopting goes toward achievements, and use them for remnant making since you can have waaay more pups than adults. Even better is getting female adols since they also count as pups and you can sell them for more on the TC once they hit 1 year and go into heat. Also if you use sick wolves, their mood decreases by double every RO, so if you only got them for crafting, they'll run away faster and you only have to play with them until the hunger makes them leave. |

Plus while waiting for pups to contract illness, you can pup train them with hunting teams that you need to wait to send out, so they get a good chunk of exp too, especially if you train for 3 hours at a time. Which is a good use for excess hunters as you can train a team or 2 back to back until they have no more hunts left then switch out and do the 3 hour training with them. That way the hunting teams are getting 100+ exp per session while waiting to hunt. |

I do still hate how your lead is at the top of the dropdown though, you can't even feed them with the new feature if they're at an odd percentage... I was really hoping we could put our lead at the bottom of the dropdowns so they would get out of the way, since I literally never want to feed my lead when explore will take care of that for me. Maybe it's just me, but remnants almost feel like a smaller carry-over of the original idea for how processing was going to work. Like an added step that forces you to switch an item over to a separate version of what it already was. I hope the normal items can once again be accepted for crafting purposes, especially since that would get rid of the issue of needing a guide to understand what items have remnant forms. The clutter from them in my inventory makes me wish they had their own tab or something, or their own area within crafting. Sounds neat that food-based remnants won't rot, makes the craftables more accessible and, for better or worse, will probably make them drop a lot price-wise. If they're merely prioritized instead of required, I'll be fine with them. Anyway, those are my two unneeded/unwanted cents. Love that caring is less stressful now, thank you! Edit: I'd forgotten that remnants can't be used for nesting material, only remembered because Vethale's comment below. They should absolutely be used for that, it's kind of ridiculous they can't be. |

First of all: apparently not all items give remnants, as I've now managed to destroy a bunch of lunar amusement items and other rare amusement trophies (which wasn't even mentioned in the update). How am I supposed to just know which amusement items give remnants and which not? Second: it's inconvenient for crafting. You can now only craft with remnants, so even if you have 100x of the items in your hoard, you gotta play with your wolves first to get them. An absolute pain for smaller packs (especially considering how wv punishes players with larger pack by increasing the daily chores. F) And third: it's actually useless. It doesn't even work for nesting materials, so you still have to leave feathers a 1 use if you don't want to waste larger items All in all, staff had good intentions but clearly didn't think it through and this new update actually makes it worse. Is there a way to remove it maybe? |

I think it's not an active downgrade, it could work well, it just needs adjustments. But as far as nesting mats go, yeah, that's a bad way to make it work. Using feathers down to one use is still the best way to get nesting mats, and why? Just let us make nests out of remnant feathers, guys. Please. |

EDIT: Done with today's feeding, it was a nightmare. I think I got the error message with 5-6 wolves in total and had to switch between feeding from stack vs feeding from the item. |
