At the moment, Mutations are just something to look at. Which seems a damn shame to me to have such an awesome feature, that has such little effect on gameplay. I'd like to see mutations mean more in this game, especially breed-wise. As far as I'm aware and have been told,(and from experience) breeding from mutations does not increase your chance of getting a mutation. That makes zero sense to me. At all. Breeding from mutated stock should At least increase the chances, or pass rate if not dominant then recessive Humankind has created an army of domesticated mutants in all domestic and some not so domestic species, through selective breeding. Not necessarily freaky mutations, though to be honest the firsts of different coat types and such would of seemed crazy at the time it occurred. Anyway back to my point. I would like, when breeding from mutated stock, an increase in chance of the offspring being mutated. I am not asking for it to be a 100% guaranteed mutant, or even a super high chance just a Slightly increased chance like with very low fertility lionesses! And maybe the more mutated history the greater the chance, for example if they have both parents mutated, and grand parents it would be a higher chance. Which would be a mission to get that kind of heritage. This would also depend on the mutations aswell, the more 'rarer' mutations would be recessive and less likely to pop up. Not saying all mutations will produce more of their own mutations either. Just a slightly increased chance Also to keep 'rarer' mutations rare, maybe a higher chance of passing 'lethal genes' when breeding rarer muties. Perhaps their could be a system implemented like so, as it stands: -The lower the fertility the higher the chance (Unsure of how much your chance increases) -GMO cow less than 100% chance but more than 50% I would like to see this: -Mutated parent(s) would be maybe a 3-5% chance increase? (Also depending if one or both parents! Daddy's freaky genes should count too!) -Mutated parent with a Very low fertility maybe a 6-8% chance increase? or slightly higher but higher chance of lethals. -Mutated parent + GMO maybe a slightly higher chance than the GMO But with a VERY high lethal chance. * Common Mutes & rarer mutes would have a different % with rarer less of a chance, and higher chance of a lethal They don't have to even be that big of a % chance increase. Even if it was what I suggested, Still a small chance! But as a risk from breeding from mutated stock, maybe an also increased chance of a lethal mutation cubs? Especially with heavy mutant heritages.. And as an afterthought, perhaps breeding certain different types of mutations together would lead to the discovery of new mutations (perhaps related to the originals perhaps not) It'd be quite a challenge figuring what mutant combos make a new mutation and even then they would not 100% guarantee the new mute.. or a mute at all It makes sense doesn't it? How come very low fertility has more of a chance but an actual mutant doesn't?? This would also help add to the market value of mutants aswell, I think people would love them alot more if their cutie-muties had a chance to pass it on! Please note: I AM TALKING ABOUT A SLIGHT INCREASE IN CHANCE. Eg a normal average lioness gives you a say, 1% chance, a mutated lioness would be a 3% or something like that, this is NOT going to make the market explode like GMOs, especially if the chance for lethals from mutants is higher.. It'd just be an INCREASED chance like Very low fertility lionesses, just slightly better as they already have the freaky genes. Even when people use GMOS which are 50%+ chance PLENTY of people still don't get mutations, heck ive seen cases where people use 3 GMOs in a row and get nothing, so please don't tell me a small % increase not even a quarter of the GMO is going to make mutations common suggestions By Magikovu ~ IO (#24258) common mutes should have a higher chance of producing the /same/ mutation. And different mutations should have a higher chance of producing a lethal mutation. Ie Folded x Folded = Higher chance of folded, though slim chance of anything else. But say Mane Silky X Achromia = slim chance for either parental mutation, & higher chance of lethal, simply because of increased changes to genetic code. By Sherlock Holmes, Coconut #16192 If muties had a chance, even a slight chance, of passing mutations, people might be more likely to keep their mutants rather than selling them because they're actually USEFUL for something. This would HELP the mutation market more than it would hinder it. |

Thank you Tasha! :3 Its just a little bit of an increase, just like Very low fert lionesses. seems fair enough, I dont want the market to implode, GMOS done a good enough job of that xD ![]() |

I'm not quite sure on this, actually. As to me, it seems like there are several mutants in the game when they are supposedly very rare? Idk, I just feel like it would reduce the value of them even more-so than they already are becoming, especially after those GMO cows which made mutations pop up like crazy. ![]() |

@Magickovu I like the way you think! I had an idea along similar lines :3 a chance to reproduce that mutation OR a similar one especially with the variation of mane mutations, you'd think they'd kinda stem from each other. & @Sherlock, you've got a really good point there, people would be holding onto to their mutes a hell of a lot tighter. I usually sell mine since they are fairly useless unless they can produce pretty cubs. ![]() |

*sigh* Seria, I am talking about a SMALL increase in chance. Breeding from a very low fertility lioness gives you more chance, why shouldnt an actual mutant? And maybe if they both have the same mutation a +2% for that mutation. we are talking about TINY chance increases, you still are very unlikely to get a mutant. And im not saying the super rare ones will be as easily effected. The GMO generations will eventually all die off and that will be that anyways. ![]() |

Most mutations have a very low fertility, so they already have that slight chance, though, technically. It's just not quite boosted more-so than any ordinary low fert lioness without a mutation. Although I do like Kovu's idea. I'm just not sure on this whole topic in general, I'm not giving my support, but nor am I entirely against it, lol. ![]() |

Lol Seria, yes but that is JUST the increased chance of very low fet ladies, mutants would only be a couple more percent higher than a Very low fert, ya feel me? It's still going to be an utter mission, Plus since the GMO's theres all kinds of mutant fertilitys. but this way people will WANT to have mutants, since they have that slightly better chance. ![]() Edited on 26/11/14 by Lady Bacon (#6605) |

Well I guess I'll have to support the idea, added in the higher chance of getting a certain mutation if you breed the same mutation lions together, along with the idea that people may start to keep their muties since they'd have more of a purpose than just looking pretty with a mutation in someone's den, lol. But I still feel as though in the long run the prices will decrease, but then again, with more and more people joining the game, that just adds onto how many mutations could be potentially bred anyway. ![]() |

For that matter, Seria, all levels of fertility can give mutes, GMOs made that more obvious. But technically a Goddess fert could have a natural born mute, it's just really rare. Like in RL, genetic mutations are everywhere, but through genetic checks and random assortment, getting a mutation is really rare. But sometimes that can be fatal. ![]() |

Yeah, I also believe that overtime as well, if you'd keep breeding muties with muties, that it would definitely increase the chance of a fatal mutation cub. As more of the gene within a lion would be a bad thing o.o ![]() |

Yay! Seria supports! *puts a party hat on you and throws confetti* It depends really Seria, I guess, as GMOS run out Mutants will go back to being hard to get, and theres always new mutations in the making. The rosettes show that Xylax and the others are experimenting with more difficult ways of passing things, and the mutants will be an itty bitty increase, youl still probably curse your lack of luck trying for them. The only reason the prices for mutants went so low is because of the GMO cows. Itd just be giving mutants that tiny edge. And if you put it that way, new people joining also decreases the value of all rare coats and markings because theres more people to spread them. ![]() |
