hello! so, as the title says.. i have a suggestion for changing how the Chased Lioness pool works.
as of a recent update, the lioness claiming menu now shows a white star when the lioness has been picked from the chased pool. however, with this, has come a realization.. a lot of chased lionesses are actually just regular NCLs that the game generates who have been chased off!
i've kept track of my encounters recently and out of 15 "chased" lionesses i found, only 2 of them were actual expected chased lionesses and not chased NCLs. and that really sucks! seeing the white star, getting excited, only for the lioness to load, and she's a typical NCL and not the kind of chased you want.

also - with the addition of the korobela, this issue is even more obvious. if you get a real chased and decide to reroll, you normally end up rerolling to a chased NCL which is worse than who you had before because she's game-generated. it's incredibly frustrating and a total waste of the item! it makes the korobela basically useless because it's not worth the risk to reroll a chased.

so, i have suggestions to change this. to change the chased pool so that players are finding what you'd expect a chased lioness to be and not chased NCLs.

[- add a criteria for entering the chased pool.
in this, a criteria is added. when a lioness is chased, the game checks a few things. if the lioness meets the requirements, she gets added to the chased pool for other players to find. if she doesn't, she just gets deleted. here's the "requirements" that i came up with:
- having an unnatural base (such as a custom base, or anything rare/special - not a base you can find on a game-generated NCL)
- having more than 2 markings (excluding hidden markings)
- having breed only traits such as tier 2 markings, event eyes, etc
- having other special traits such as enclave markings, applicator eyes, etc
if a lioness meets at least one of these, she gets added to the chased pool. if she doesn't meet any of them then she's either a game-generated NCL or basically the same thing as one and she gets deleted. a lioness only needs to meet ONE requirement to get added to the pool.

[- making chased lionesses a little more rare
if the system in point 1 is added, then it means that all chased encountered will be the expected chased rather than chased NCLs. however, this means i would have found 15 chased in the last 2 days. so, if the criteria are added, chased encounters should also be reduced to make up for the fact that the pool is no longer diluted by chased NCLs.

i would love to hear other people's opinions on this so please feel free to reply to this post with your ideas or discuss the points i made

No worries, Rhy. I'm glad I could articulate it.
