And ever since I really try to get back into it every few weeks but I play for one day and feel so overwhelmed and just. Idk not smart enough? Which is really odd bc ive been on Wolvdens sister site (lioden) for 7 years now and I'd say I'm very accomplished on there? Or at least I have every detail down to a science, even the luck. So I'm wondering if I'm just doing things wrong or if maybe it's something else  but if anyone has advise and tips I'm begging for them. I feel like I understand all the rules and how things work, but it's just not coming together. And I don't want to just give up and leave bc I genuinely love a lot of aspects  Things to note: currently no wolf is starving (I apparently won 15 gb on a raffle and i spent that on food and supplies v quickly, the rest has been turned into sc and is buried for emergencies) however amusement items are so much harder to find? Pensive moments |

Amusement is hard! Best way to get it is to have your scouts rescout areas you've fully discovered, but that's a bummer as it means that you won't always be able to scout new areas as fast as you want. Exploring is also a good way to get amusement, there are encounters that will help with that. You can also get some amusement (and food) by beating enemies in battle. Don't take on too many wolves at once! If you can't feed and amuse the ones you've got, you aren't ready to expand! Pupsitters! Make sure to assign your pups to pupsitters if you want them to live. I am raising a bunch to chase so I mostly let them fend for themselves. If they die it just means I don't have to feed them until adulthood lol. You can have any number of pupsitters, so having a bunch of your unemployed wolves pupsit can be useful if you have many pups. In order to successfully keep your pack fed, you want a team of five full-time hunters. Eventually you might want to expand to two teams, but I personally don't see the utility in having more than 2 teams. There are a lot of moving parts that go into what makes a hunting team successful, but a lot of that comes with time and experience, eg, your team will get better as they hunt. But what you can control is making sure your hunters have personalities that don't clash. Don't put stoic and romantic wolves on the same hunting team, and don't put aggressive and friendly wolves on the same team. Their bickering will make hunts fail. Outside of personalities, hunters are better if 1) they have higher stats for the role they are in (chasers need speed and agility, finishers need strength, and stalkers need smarts and wisdom) 2) they have been a team for a long time and have high synergy together and 3) they have high proficiency in their role (you dedicate a wolf to, for instance, stalking, rather than having them jump back and forth between stalking and finishing.) Food is ALWAYS good to have more of, so try to be always sending your hunters out as long as they have energy and hunts left in the day. If you have enough, great. If you have too much, you can sell it to others and make money, or wait for it to rot and harvest bones from it for amusement. If you are doing well on food and can afford the risk, send your hunters out on the biggest trail you can find, this will gain them more exp. But when you are just starting out, it might be best to go for a sure thing instead of gambling on a big trail. Much like with hunting, DON'T neglect your herbalist! They should ALWAYS be foraging for herbs or crafting/researching cures! Having way too many herbs is so great. I recently had like 180 of three or four different herbs and I've been turning them into charcoals and dandelions so that I can craft healing salves because I'm going through the salves so fast. Also be sure to cure any illnesses as soon as possible so that they don't spread. Unless you're playing the flea meta: give every wolf fleas so that they can't get more serious illnesses. Reach out to your community for help! There are threads in chatter for giving away food, amusement, and cures! Often people on here will be generous if you just ask. Remember not to ask in chat though, as that's considered begging and is against the rules. That's everything I can think of off the top of my head, but feel free to ask other questions! |

@Lionel tysm!!!! I changed Monty immediately I didn't realize personality really *did* anything…. (Lioden had a way of saying it did and then it proceeded to mean nothing so I just. Assumed the same I guess) |
