Dam Son Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Hi guys, can anyone walk me through on what's new on this phase 2 is? What's this about petting and needing kibbles? How frequent? How long? How much? i am about to mass breed a bunch of dimorphidons and what will happen if I fail to give cuddles or kibbles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeeze Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 I've heard the interval is 3hrs but have yet to experience it firsthand. They ask to be walked/petted/given kibble... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dam Son Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 I just hatched one. So the timer says it needs some TLC in 3 hours. So what sort of TLC should I prepare? Jazz music? An education fund? edit. Nvm, I just read the reply above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyofHats Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 the mechanic as far as i understand it is like this :after it is born the person who claims it will have the chance to imprint it. every 3 to 4 hours your baby will ask one of 3 things (kibble, cuddle or walk) but only from the person who claimed him. if you give it to him he will earn a % inprint.. if you do this every single time (every 4 hours) until he gets 100% then he will gain a 20% bonus on his stats when you and only you mount it whenever you miss a request the % will whither down and you wont get anything. ( he will have grown up normally as before so no penalty) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dam Son Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 Ah, yes. Thanks. That little turd now wants a walk. Personally, its annoying and also genius of the devs to include this feature. This tests how dedicated you are to this game. Its kinda demented actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely a neat mechanic, just would be difficult for a lot of players who have a job or family beyond the game. Or even those that don't want to worry about setting timers or staying logged on. But perhaps that's the point, a lot of work for increased reward.

Dam Son Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 lol, I am agreeing with you. I guess you didn't catch on my sarcasm. I shudder to think about raising gigas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shudder to think about raising gigas Guy on my server saw triplets quetzals hatched. Total panic followed because he only farmed food for 1. In short: he stayed awake to get all 3 to full grown phase, was panicking and trying to rally the entire server in Prime Time to farm meat for him or buy massive amounts of meat from us. he succeeded, but as far as I know he quit breeding for a couple of months after that.

Dam Son Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 oh I have bred a giga before, it was easy to be honest (but not so sure about its new stasis food consumption rate though) I macro'ed the hand feeding part while I go watch TV about 3-4 hours and logged out to let it go to stasis. while in its juvie stage or adolescent stage, I just check in once every 12 hours to fill up the troughs. took about 2 weeks to raise it up completely. stasis is the best feature tbh. did the same for my dimorphs, let it carry up to about 25 meat, fill up troughs and log off... come back next day to see them matured. provided the place you are raising it is not a heavy traffic area as the dinos will fall out of stasis and resume normal food consumption Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
