Ferox..why bother trying?
Ok..so the first ever Ferox I tried to tame.. several weeks ago.. vanished into thin aie.. I though I had drempt it.. I looked everywhere but it never returned.. That had been a 150 to boot. I had a few more attempts at other random levels.. with no great sucess.. some died, some just seemed to dissapear.. and so on.. Eventually I found another 150.. tamed it up after a bit of effort..and it said.. 150 Ferox tammed.. I was confused.. When it changed back to a small Ferror..sure enough.. it was 225.. ok.. cool..must of imagined it..

I wehn to use it for the first time a few days later.. fed it some element.. grew it to full size..,and it was a 150 agasin.. ever since.. it has lost ALL it's bonous level..all that eliment and time wasted.. so dissapointed..

I said why bother... untill today.. saw another 150..cool! I built a cage of gates..feed it.. ran out closed the doors.. it grew big..stayed that way for awhile.. then turned back..I went back inside..rinse and repeat. I got the little guy to about..35%? Then as it got small, then stood up.. POOF.. vanished.. RIGHT BEFORE MY F%#&#NG EYES!!! WTF!?!?! I KNOW I'm not the only one have ♥♥♥♥ issues like this! How is this ♥♥♥♥ still happening? I don't rant to offent.. but FFS. It's the time that pisses me off the most.. do we atleast know if this is getting looked into?

I haven't personally had any trouble with them vanishing, but someone on my cluster that's been hoarding and breeding them has noticed the level thing too. Not only their level changes when they get addicted, even their ID changes, same when they turn back. From his experience, homebred babies also just get random stats instead of inheriting anything from the parents, which makes sense if you can basically randomize their stats at will. Bred specimens seemed to be more stable at maintaining their identity, at first glance.
No idea if there's a fix incoming, but until it does, I'm just gonna shrug it off as another crazy feature.

This is your ferox.
This is your ferox on drugs.
Any questions?

exactly the same problem

When I was taming a Ferox, one of them glitched out and literally cloned itself. There were two Ferox with the same stats and taming progression. I thought about taming both, but they were male, so I skipped the other one and saved my elements lol.

Ferox are definitely the most complex dinos to date, you're basically dealing with two different dinos at once. So yeah, lots of glitches from this one...

Thanks heaps for the replys guys. Atleast Im not the only one.. I don't understand why this is a thing. I want to tame two wild 150's, and I don't mind so much waisting the eliment, although thats anoying..it's just the time spent doing it. Building a trap.. chasing it around..haveing it vanish etc. The trap seems to work great though... but stopping them despawning is the issue. Then if I do get one.. I'll be gutted if it loses all it's levels and tamming efficency again.

ive tamed two 150 both was 225.. then when i got them out the cryo they both was 150 again.

As for breeding not notice any level losses but some do lose or gain stats when they grow so some may have say 500% dmg.. they grow have 550% others can have lower..
i did report it i suggest everyone should do that..

also WC are not compensation of any dinos on gen map.. i was a bit annoyed about this when ferox cost you time.. and element..

dont need to build gates to build sometimes i just let them beat up a tek rex or i just run around on the bear.. only attack to be careful of is the beat down attack.. that wil even dismount you off a rex..

They ♥♥♥♥ up this dlc and ask way to much money for a small ass map. They should return half the money to all of us.:steamfacepalm:
