Primal Road

Breeding simulations to answer your what ifs!

Primeval Legacy is a fail-safe mechanism that protects the highest element average from the parents so it won't go below a certain threshold.

Legend:

• P = Parent

• GP = Grand Parent

• O = Offspring

• ED = Elemental Distribution

• PL = Primal Legacy

• E = Earth

• F = Fire

• W = Water

• A = Air

Situation #1: Same ED

P1 - Oasis	A17 E0 F42 W41
P2 - Oasis	A30 E0 F38 W32
O - Oasis	A24 E0 F40 W36

Result is obtained through pure average sum of both parents. If result has decimals it will be rounded of randomly to any element. So how will you slowly work towards your target ED? Through obtaining PL, Relics or Miracles.

Situation #2: Different ED

P1 - Foresty	A40 E26 F0 W34
P2 - Wasteland	A42 E41 F17 W0
O - Quad	A41 E33 F8 W17

"That's two Tri why did it become a Quad?" That's because you increased the number of elements in the pool buddy! Not all 3+3/2 is 3. We don't know if one of those 3 has a really sad backstory.

Situation #3: Same ED + PL

P1 - Mountainous	A0 E24 F21 W55
P2 - Mountainous	A0 F15 E40 W45
O - Mountainous	A0 F17 E28 W55

Highlighted in orange is Primeval Legacy. The offspring have guaranteed inheritance of the PL element and the remaining elements will be adjust and be averaged accordingly.

Situation #4: Same ED + 2 Different PL

P1 - Oasis	A40 E0 F23 W37
P2 - Oasis	A22 E0 F55 W23
O - Oasis	A23 E0 F55 W22

If parents have different PL only the highest elemental average will be protected. Avoid breeding two different PLs, you're just wasting it. If parents have the same PL please refer to Legacy Stacking. If - for a rare instance that the average of A is higher than F... A will be protected. So be very careful when breeding your PLs.

Situation #5: Same ED + P1 Different PL

P1 - Mountainous	A0 E39 F35 W26	A35 E35 F0 W35
P2 - Mountainous	A0 E41 F21 W38
O - Mountainous	A0 E40 F28 W32

This one is another rare case where a PL is from a different ED, like this Mountainous having the PL of an Foresty. Only elements available to both parents will be affected which is E and W and since PL only protects the highest element average from both parents then E will be triggered in this case... but wait there's something wrong with the equation above?

Situation #5 pt.2: PL Won't Trigger

P1 - Mountainous	A0 E39 F35 W26	A35 E35 F0 W35
P2 - Mountainous	A0 E41 F21 W38
Raw Pure Average	A0 E40 F28 W32	Higher than PL number
O - Mountainous	A0 E40 F28 W32

"PL protects the element that has the highest average." If the average sum of the highest element is higher than the PL number, it will not trigger. What will you do then? I suggest waiting for gameplay and keep that PL a virgin. Or just breed regardless and hope for the 10% inheritance to trigger.
