I've never really been interested in Combo bases. In fact, a case could be made that I dislike them, however I found myself really liking Temporal, half considering breeding for it, and then finding out it was month exclusive. Which is no big deal, after all the month isn't quite over. However I was a bit disappointed to learn that outside of the month, they can only be bred between two Temporals. Same thing for Pulsar. Doesn't anyone think that's a bit....needlessly hard? I'd compare it to the Kimanjano nerf, only you CAN pass Kiman in that case even if one parent isn't a Kimanjano... I feel like it would make much more sense if month exclusive bases could be bred back to their components. That is to say, in November you could breed a Temporal to a Bast or Unholy or Sunset and possibly get a Temporal, however breeding a Temporal from scratch (Bast/Unholy or Sunset/Unholy) would not be possible. It's not like Bast, Unholy, or Sunset lions are readily available and even if they are, they tend to be fairly pricey or have some drawback to them if they're not (i.e recently bred, which means the buyer must wait 2/3 of a month before even attempting a Temporal breeding, which will likely fail anyway). I don't know. This trend for Combo bases goes right past challenging and lands smack into "asking for too much" territory if you ask me and we should kill it in it's crib. Adding that special criteria on the wiki in the meantime would be nice to... |

Kinda on the fence about this to be honest; considering how eventually most markets tank, such as Sunset and Sunrise and countless others before, especially with the addition of Crunchy Worms and other items people can take advantage of with enough money and / or luck combined with the eventual spread of bases, sometimes I think they become /too/ undervalued and common. They're supposed to be special and sought after, but overbreeding and hype can kill a market instead of having it remain special. By no means do I think a base should be completely un-attainable for the average user of course, or that it should be extremely difficult and expensive to breed, but I think a balance has to be struck between the two extremes, though I'm not sure it's easy to figure out how to do that, and what would work. ![]() |

Sunset and Sunrise aren't combos though. You can just mass breed those, but you cannot easily mass breed Pulsar or Temporal (at least not Temporal) because each bases needed in creating them isn't feasibly mass breedable in a short amount of time. Most RICH players don't have 100 unholy or bast or sunset or even a mixture of the three lying around for a Temporal stud to breed to. And even if then, there's no genetic comparability like in the case of breeding 100 Anjeers to a Sunset or 100 Fieries to a Sunrise. Sunset is a medium red. Bast is a medium gold. Unholy is a Dark Red. In none of these crosses will it be a 100/100/100/30 for Color/Shade/Grade/Rarity. At BEST its a 100/50/100/30. Breeding Temporal to Unholy is the most feasible route since they have identical genetics. ![]() Edited on 25/10/18 @ 16:38:05 by Jaxolantern|Çɮ|CLEAN N (#103364) |

I don't like the way Temporal or Pulsar have to be bred; no other combo base can actually be attained by breeding two of them together. This shit needs to be standardized; either I can get a citrine by breeding two together as well, or these month exclusive breedings should be passed by breeding it to its counterpart. Like you said, this goes from being interestingly complex to "now I have to memorize a whole site." ![]() |

Damn, you're right. How does it make sense that two temporals can make a temporal but two citrines cant make a citrine? That's not very sensible, not to mention you can't expect people to remember every little detail of the site lmfao. ![]() |
