Theory Testing : Hunters need time to adjust to a Biome!

Theory Testing : Hunters need time to adjust to a Biome!

Testing a Theory / Gaining Info! Contributions very much appreciated!

The Question: Do Hunting Teams experience a few days of disorientation after moving biome?

Today in chat, 💐[Kim] Lil' Bud🌹 (#13734) pointed out that Hunters seem to take a few days, after moving to a 'new' biome, to adjust. She describes it as seeming like a 'soft reset' - Proficiency/Synergy/Stats aren't affected *but* the wolves are a little rubbish for a few days.

An example:  Alpha Pack lives in the Desert. Hunter Team A picks up Medium Prey with no problem at all. Then, Alpha Pack moves to the Conf Forest for winter. When Spring comes, they move back to the Desert, but all they seem to be able to find are Critter / Small Trails!

The info we're looking for: When you move back to a biome you've been in before, let us know how long it is before your team picks up its first trail of the size you used to find there.

EDIT: To be super clear ^.^ - This is for when you move back to a Biome you've been in previously.  This is so we can test whether it's the move that affects things, not the change in biome difficulty.

Please let us know:

Biome moved to:
Prey size you were finding previously :
How many ROs did it take to find that prey again:

This might just be a theory. But let's find out!  Thanks in advance for contributing

Biome moved to: Desert 

Prey size you were finding previously: Large (in Grasslands)

How many ROs did it take to find that size prey again: After 7 ro's still not finding more than small and critter

Biome moved to: Rainforest (29th May)
Prey size you were finding previously : Small
How many ROs did it take to find that prey again: 2 RO - and almost exactly 3 days.

Biome Moved To: Mountains

Prey Size Found Previously: Medium

Previous Biome: Grasslands

I haven’t moved back, but when I got to mountains my hunters took a week (6-7 ROs) to start to even get Small Trails (although they had just been getting them in the Grasslands, I moved as soon as I could...)

Now if I did move back, I’m not sure if I’ll go strait to Large trails, probably Small and then a few days until I get back to Medium/Large.

Thanks Amethyst!  That's really useful since they're both starter biomes. For the datapoint - do you send your hunters out pretty regularly or just once/twice a day? (Just to help me guess at the chances of you just having been *really* unlucky!)

I actually send out my hunters as much as I can- which is whenever they have energy and aren’t already hunting.

I have 2 patrols, but I’ve usually used my first one, and then use my second when the first is completely out of hunts.
