Cloning/passing on exact coat

Cloning/passing on exact coat

updated idea:

Cloning wolves with sterile offspring (to prevent abuse), but unlike immortal wolves able to age/participate in hunts/scouting/pupsitting. Would let us keep our pretty wolves around while potentially providing more incentive to donate for GC, without the enormous GP cost of making another custom wolf.

No support.

This would be highly abused and would make too easy to get rare bases or markings. It would make meaningless having different rarity tiers for bases and markings since with a simple item you could replicate it for sure how many times you want

@Piffle

What if animals were sterile? You would have to repay every time, which no ability to abuse the perk for breeding purposes. I would pay to keep some of the coats I've created around for nostalgia, even if there wasn't breeding purpose. Would save the GC cost of changing wolves coats to be entirely custom.

You mean that the cloned wolves would be sterile?

But in that case, we already have immortal wolves. If you just want to have that pretty wolf in your pack forever, you can make it immortal

Ah! I had thought that was just for lethal mutations, thanks for the new info. It would still be nice to have an option where wolves can still be used for hunting/scouting for pack lore purposes, rather than the immortal who is unusable.

The idea of having an item readily available to anybody to pass on a wolves base takes the fun out of breeding.

People spend a lot of time trying to get the hard to breed bases, and I am sure the same goes for the tier 3 bases when they are released, so having an item that can pass those bases down instantly after having countless of players spend a lot of time and SC/GC just to breed them through sheer luck doesn't sound too pleasing.

If this were introduced it'd likely be an event item(assuming events will work similarly to lioden) however even on lioden it is not a guarantee. The Crunchy worm is an event item on lioden can be fed to a lioness for a 25% chance to pass on the mothers exact appearance to her cubs. 

I'd support a limited time event item that gave a chance to copy the appearance onto a pup, similar to the Crunchy worm on lioden.

As Phantom StarsX has said, I'd support a breeding item that allows a chance to create an appearance "clone" pup... but this item would likely not pass on mutations or any other fancy thing. So, in a sense, it would work according to what you're suggesting, without being potentially abused because there'd be a chance situation in play.
