I feel like having a mechanic that allows the use for TIs and TIIs while preventng it from entering the chase pool would allow more studs to have a opportunity and some more balance to all these fancy G1 TIIIs hypes and allow some more in-depth breeding back With a more Interesting breeding challenge and decision making upon the different play styles.

Coding for the new tier would be a little hard but I feel "not a code expert" like the preventing of the wolf with that base from entering the chase pool if it been chased would be easy enough since it happens to adols and Pups if you chase them before they are adults but that is based upon a guesstimate of what little I know.

Support ^^
I think this would help the breeding market a lot! (You already pointed that out but I'm just restating it since it's true)

Pros

~Would help the stud market a lot!
~More possibilities of bases
~This goes a bit more with the one above, but more possibilities for unique pups!

Cons

~Since there's no such thing as a gen 1 T4 wolf, how would you get a T4? Would it just randomly come in a litter, like the lethal mutations? Or is there a way to find it in explore?
~Collectors of bases have to collect a ton new bases (and people like me who have an all T3s den might want to switch to an all T4s den)
~The fact that a T4 can't be chased would be very bewildering to newbies. What if they don't want to chase a T4 for R&C? What if they just wanna chase them because they don't want to own the wolf anymore, and there's no option to chase? Very confusing.

Hopefully this information helps you! ^^

The whole point of combos is that use certain 2 wolves this is example not suggesting but like

Magnolia only x air glow only = low probability of Dawn

But you do make good point with newbies but it's shouldnt be that hard to understand that this breed only tier is breed only and that finding it in explore would just lead to the TIII hype again

Edit: also you can chase them but they would just never be in the chase pool ever

Edit: also fixed the confusion and added points

Ahh, that makes more sense now. Thanks for clearing it up, Hadus.

But yeah, if I were a newbie and I got a T4 I would be like, "Ugh, why can't I boot out this wolf I own named Dream? I took out the Pairbond and the pupsitter role and everything!" And then people would have to be reassuring like, "Oh, Dream can't be chased since they're a T4." And I would be like

WHATTT???

And then imagine people just explaining this to chat on the daily.. it would take way too long and definitely a hard thing to grasp.

Yeah I can understand how that would be a problem but no I just ment that if you chase them then they won't be found in the chase pool or ever as a Gen 1 wolf

OHHH...

That makes more more sense now. So if you chase a wolf, it can't be found in explore. Thanks again!

I like the idea of breed only T1/T2 bases & nbw bases being part of this, of course this would mean longer lineages but would for sure make having a T4 even more rewarding especially if that wolf has good stats for its generation.
This also helps incentivize stat breeders when they get to those longer generation statted wolves.

Also like the idea of having them stay breed only but not allowing them into the chased pool like mutations.

I'd love to see some breed only bases (and markings) that are truly breed only, and that wolves with those bases (and/or markings) are not let into the chased pool.
Right now breeding projects on WD feels kinda pointless, since every base and marking can be found on a chased wolf.

I support as I really like the idea of using T1 wolves more often, Imo T1's are beautiful but just aren't getting the recognition they deserve >:(

I hope this is OK with the owner but just adding a link to another forum that loves T1s and T2s link
