Make whales and orcas more common

I have spent so much time at sea, but I can't seem to find whales and orcas!

Remove whales. There isn't a high tier player who thinks manually whaling is fun (maybe Trollex) and if you increase spawns people who farm them are just gonna get more and create a larger gap.

I also dislike a lot of tedium in the game, and this is why I have suggested some good suggestion recently to improve the effort to profit rate! I also do not find particularly grinding an object too fun, but find the joy of getting a nice reward!

The gaps between people are also already too high, and thus some defenseless sprucecaps can not do much about it already regardless of whether this suggestion is added or not

Wouldn't a surplus of whales mean more trading? Trickle-down economics

this is quite a fine thought indeed, I think that this case is possible, considering that for example things such as whale meat can be used in some very good cooking recipes

I think better will be not remove, but make them spawn in one pack. It's will be some sort of event like meteor. All players will receive an alert in the style of "Big waves are coming" and flock of whales will start moving from one side of a map to another. On the other hand, it will be difficult to imagine how the players will fight for this flock of whales in the sea with current ship-combat mechanic.

this would only make a small amount of very strong players monopolise on getting this whale resource! I think limiting access to goods to the common nab is not good! Think of the nabs!

Another motivation to be better is perfect.

My stance is to make whale meat significantly less OP and in exchange increase the amount of meat you get from a whale by an order of magnitude.
