Pet Breeding

[Highroller]

I would like to propose that the fail rates for breeding pets be revisited. I had 15 out of 20 attempted crosses fail today. Yes they were maxed or near maxed pets but failing 3/4 of the time is a bit over the top considering imprisoned pets killed the market for pets years ago. I mean breeders for all practical purposes breed now for fun. Its not fun when you fail on 3/4 of your cross attempts.

Update, have done a little better since the 5 out of 20 but its still less than 1/3 success overall.

I feel your pain but I think its a good thing breeding is so hard or wed have too many vendors selling maxxed mules and nobles

I can live with the fail rates. I could do without the sterile breeds. Oh, you thought that line was going to max? Surprise!

Yup after getting 40% to 50% steriles in the 4th gen of 7 backbreeding programs in a row a few years ago I left the shard for an extended time. It may be 5% steriles overall but when they consistently clump at the worst time over and over and over it just hard to even TRY anymore.

My failure rate on max pets went from ~80% failure to about about 50% for a good month now. I was convinced that changes were made after I complained in a forum post a while back, but based on what everyone else tells me I guess I'm just on a hot streak.
