Doge773 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Saw a guys base with 100's of fert deinonychus eggs I was flying around Valguero and before someone's base rendered I saw absolutely tons, maybe up to 400 deinonychus eggs, fertilised, but there were only like 6 deins by such eggs. The way the eggs were positioned looked like the deins had no mating cooldown whatsoever and were able to spit out fert eggs constantly May I mention - it's a sort of deino breeding house, with only 6 deinos, therefore I doubt he got 400 eggs, then decided to mate them Anyone know how this is possible????

iAgnehole Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Deino eggs spoil like wyverns eggs. So that means they have very long spoil timer. I have just 1 male and 2 fems thats on breeding all the time and get a few hundreds egg, but once i pick them up half of them spoil. But i only use the eggs for kibble because you can use fert deinoeggs to make the highest tier of kibble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyBear Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 the eggs don't go bad after spawning. THey take like a long time to despawn like wyv eggs or drake eggs. Each one could put out 2 a day easy. for several days would add up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraXz Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 What GrumpyBear said. Also this is very common on official PVE servers. No wonder their servers are ass with all those timers the server has to handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't lose health, deino exclusive, and take extreme temperatures to hatch. These are functions of the eggs hatching in the wild orginally.

You pick them up they spoil in your inventory they just don't decay in the short time frame other dino eggs do. Deino eggs don't spoil or lose egg health. That's the difference.

Castlerock Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 They dont spoil if u dont pick them up also. I had a tribemate start hatching a few drake eggs with less than 5h to spoil. They hatched without spoiling as no one pick them up after the spoil timer was up. Deino eggs spoil also when u pick them up after the timer is up.

GrumpyBear Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 1 hour ago, ArkRage said: But shouldn't the egg health deteriorate to 0, or possibly hatch? if that happened, then you wouldn't be able to pick up the wild eggs. Eggs that spawn in nests that we steal for raising, can't just go bad, so they are exempt from the despawning after being left out, since the game itself leaves them out. It won't incubate if the temperature isn't right, so it will just sit and slowly decay as if it was in a refrigerator, only a refrigerator extends that time and since it's not in one, that decay timer will be as if u left the egg in a regular storage box. Notice when you put them in there , they last a week or 2, i forgot the exact amount of time. If you picked up all those eggs, you would see some were about to disappear and others have a day or so left, while the freshest ones will have plenty of time before decay. It's an easy way to get eggs for kibble and keeps you from having to refrigerate all the eggs until you make it into kibble. Problem with it is, all those eggs out sucks up CPU time on the server and eats away at performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna set mine to mate constantly. ? it would be best if you just did it until you got enough to make the kibble you need and then store them after. If everyone does this, the server becomes a nightmare and the huge bases become a minor inconvenience compared to all the dein eggs that are out on the map. I wouldn't put it past WC to declare this type of egg farm griefing and start wiping out these kinds of egg farms if they are left unmaintained, meaning not turned to kibble in a reasonable amount of time. (and I'd kinda have to agree w/ them on it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not uncommon for me to log in and find 8 or 10 under my females if I forget to turn off breeding, but 400 from six, wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doge773 Posted June 2, 2020 Author Share Posted June 2, 2020 Thanks all for the replies, definitely answered my question! Yeah no wonder the server performance is so crappy all the time with all the egg timers in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is because the timer on wild eggs dont update until interacted with. Saves server resources similar as timers on items in fridges dont update until opened etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
