Animals/Monsters

[Yolan]

As I understand it, the current system works whereby animals become stronger the further out you go. That is, even animal types. So, a fox in ring seven is stronger than a fox in ring two.

I'm wondering what other players think of this system, because personally I'm not a fan! At the moment, I think its certainly useful given that there are not many types of animals/monsters yet implemented, and if you want a challenge a 'higher level' version of an animal is available. However, what about in the long run?

Personally, I would like to see animal types remain the same strength, in general, no matter where you find them. A fox is still a fox, near your farm or deep in the forest. I suggest that the increased danger/challenge of heading out into the wilderness rings comes from coming into contact with stronger types of animals and/or in greater numbers.

I wouldn't mind it if there were a few 'versions' of an animal, such as 'wolf', 'ravenous wolf', 'rabid wolf' etc. distinguishable by name/slight difference in appearance such as size/colour. But having every ring simply add stat points to a base animal type the further out you go is no ideal in the long run in my opinion.

What do you guys think?

Oops! So it is! I've been reading the forums a lot since I started, but that was a day after said post! Sorry!

It's no problem, I just though I'd point it out.
