So I know there is already a guide with impression levels but it's kind of old and I have nothing else
to do so I decided to make my own ^.^



To start off we will introduce the 10 different impression levels that you can reach. Dreamboat is the final level you can reach, meaning you are quite the catch and should have little difficulty in luring those lioness into your den. However, even a catchy dreamboat needs to be put in their place from time to time, so there is still a chance your smooth talking stud can get slapped. The levels are:

Barely Noticeable
Not Very Impressive
Not Impressive
Average
Slightly Impressive
Somewhat Impressive
Impressive
Very Impressive
Extremely Impressive
Dreamboat



Impression doesn't have much of a role in the game, but in August when the new claiming system was implemented, it brought along some advantages for higher level impressions. Dreamboat will give you the most advantage, but after the first 3 lower level stages, things get better. As things are now these are what you are most likely to encounter based on your impression level:

Barely Noticeable
Not Very Impressive
Not Impressive
•These have a 100% chance of attracting Basic NCLs
---------------------------
Average
Slightly Impressive
Somewhat Impressive
•These can attract both Basic NCLs and Chased NCLs
---------------------------

•These can attract Basic, Chased, and Exclusive NCLs

• Rare chance of claiming a lioness who will keep her pose

•How do I improve my impression?
A: Explore, explore, explore! The best and quickest way to get that impression bar up is by trying your luck at trying to impress a lioness with your charming abilities. You will probably get slapped many times before you are finally able to obtain a lioness, but there is no need to worry, every single one of us has been there! Just keep trying! You can also gain impression from battling animals you find in explore. You may also attack another player for a chance to win either territory, exp, or impression. There is also an item called Dove Feast which will boost your impression by 25%! There are many ways to gain impression so you will be a Dreamboat in no time!

•What does impression impact?
A: Impression has no other impact in game other than affecting your chances of luring a NCL into your den. However, there are added benefits for those with higher impression levels.

•What to do when the impression bar reaches 100%?
A: The Impression bar which is located to the right of your screen along in a little box that lists your: Energy, Hunger, Experience, and Impression. The Impression bar is the last one in the box and is a blue color. When it is full and displays 100% you will go to your lion's page and look at the box that is labeled as "Lion Currents", it will display information such as his age, but it will also display his current impression level. If you can level up your impression there will be a tan box next to that spot with an option to level up.

•What happens after you reach Dreamboat?
A: After you reach Dreamboat you are still able to gain impression and fill the bar. Since you have reached the highest impression level possible, there is still the option to level up. However, instead of increasing your impression level you will gain 5 stats for your efforts.

•What does NCL stand for?
Newly Claimed Lioness, a lion that has randomly been generated by the game, usually with very few markings.

•What is a Chased lioness?
When you chase a lioness there is a chance that she will show up during explore. They can have any varying number of markings, common or special, and can even have a special base. So while exploring it is possible to find a lioness that has been chased.

•What is an Exclusive NCL lioness?
NCLs generated with markings and/or bases exclusive to NCLs.
