Remove prime meat dropping from wild babies
This makes taming of carnivores way to easy and ruins the entire taming food table balance.

i mean without stack mods or spoil timer changes they spoil fast and no real easy way to stockpile

Reduce your boosted taming rates so prime is not that op lol

Again some big tribe discord player requesting to nerf the game for other except themselves...

I'm quite shocked at these replies can't have a legit balancing opinion around here apparently from the gate keeping fan boys

The balance between a herbivore and carnivore tame times are WAY off.

Before getting prime meat was a special thing only in certain cases were you supposed to be able to tame a creature with 100 percent prime meat given the limit of 1 per stack and the quick spoil time.

Now you tame every carnivore with prime because its so readily accessible which will now makes mutton useless.

Some tames are quicker with mutton still

Ugh, that's such a terrible idea! Removing prime meat drops from wild babies would just make the whole taming process a tedious grind. Who needs that kind of frustration? And seriously, what's wrong with a little efficiency in taming? Sounds like someone's just bitter about their narcotics stockpile.

Yeah it is, but I wouldnt say the time is necessarily worth it going that far to tame and breed the sheep when prime grows on trees

And with the taming effectiveness prime/mutton theres not much of a difference

It is kind of easy... like taking prime-meat from a baby

Narcotics were only ever useful for tranq arrow/dart building. If you're using anything other than narcoberries to keep something down you're doing it wrong. The ONLY exception is taming your first Mosa, and even then only if weight is an issue.

Not that I think prime meat isn't too easy to get but if we are comparing a scenario where mutton is accessible from breeding sheep, then prime meat is also even more accessible from breeding literally anything. The only thing wild babies affects is how easy it is to get prime meat before you have a few basic tames that can breed your own babies to slaughter for prime meat or a strong mount that can kill some bigger dinos. Mutton has nothing to do with this.

Why is that a bad thing? Id rather play the game with less downtime just waiting for stuff to tame. Id say this game already has a bit of a time investment, lets not make that investment even longer.
