Huge Explore Update

Today's update basically doubles the content in explore!

110 new encounters have been added today, and are spread across all biomes!  We have taken the community's feedback into consideration and balanced what drops where, so some new encounters may appear to be a bit "extra", but they're here to balance out what was previously unfair in some biomes.

There are 4 new exclusive, seasonal encounters in each biome as well!

Almost all of the new encounters have multiple buttons and multiple outcomes.  Some of these also drop new recipes and items!  We hope you enjoy the beautiful content provided by our writers and artists, and that you have fun discovering all of this new explore content!





Enemies

Over 40 new enemies have been added, each with new trophies!  These enemies will also drop the recently-added Scar decors.

These new enemies add hard opponents to each biome, and EPIC enemies to the Glacier and Rainforest biomes.  These epic enemies are for the toughest players, and their trophies will be worth more!

The enemy variety within biomes will now be a bit more balanced.  You may also notice older enemies appearing in new biomes—this was done not only for balance, but because it made sense to have them live within certain biomes (e.g. Mustang Stallion being found in the Prairie).

As a note, we have implemented 1 human enemy per explore biome, with their own new weapon attacks.

In the future, we'll add more wolf enemies for more of a universal experience as well!



Prey

12 new small carcasses can drop from new encounters!  These carcasses fit in well to certain hunting biomes, so there is now 1 new critter available within all zones for each biome (e.g. the Jacana can be hunted in all 4 zones of the Swamp) for your wolves to hunt down!





New Raffle Marking

Some of you may have noticed a brand new marking shape released in the most recent Lunar Event news post: Orca!

Orca is a new raffle marking that you can only find on weekly raffle studs!



Orca comes in the following colours.
- Aspen
- Beige
- Cedar
- Cream
- Gold
- Gray
- Honey
- Red
- White
- Yellow

It also comes in a few combo marking colours!
- Deira
- Doubloon
- Ducat
- Saffron
- Zircon

Thank you for the marking suggestion, Embers (#3501)!

As a reminder, brand new raffle markings released on raffle studs cannot be applied using Random Marking Applicators or Total Shuffles until the raffle stud is drawn and players are able to start redeeming their breedings with him.  We will be sure to mention when a certain marking can start being applied!  None of the new Orca markings mentioned in this news post can be applied through Random Marking Applicators or Total Shuffles currently.
