Season 3 Breeding
Last updated
Last updated
Season 3 lasts until either:
A) 2 full breeding cycles are completed at maximum breeding possible (i.e. Genesis Birds breed 4 times each month) OR
B) April 1st, 2023 at 12:00am UTC
This means there will be a maximum of 35,552 Season 3 Birds if all Genesis Birds are bred to their full capacity (4444 x 8), OR whatever the number of Season 3 birds is under the maximum may be by April 1st, 20232 at 12:00 AM UTC
Within this subset there will be a maximum of:
67 Rare Sets
| Within the 67 rare sets, they will be split in subsets of:
7 New Unique Legendaries
60 Full Sets
888 Mutants
| Within the 888 mutants, they will be split in subsets of:
10 Legendary Mutations (not to be confused with a Legendary Bird with a Mutation)
50 Epic Mutations
228 Rare Mutations
600 Common Mutations
If the full amount of Legendaries or Mutants are not minted by the end of Season 3 the remaining sets will be placed in other lootboxes or other special items during Season 4.
Every bird will start its own 30-day timer for a breeding cycle on its first breed. Each breed will automatically apply a 5-day breeding cooldown on each bird, during this time birds can still be used to earn and play. The unhatched eggs will have a 24-hour cooldown until they can be revealed by the owner.
Season 3 Breeding
All unhatched eggs created during Season 2 will have until 4 pm UTC 8/16 to hatch as a Season 2 Baby Bird. Any egg hatched after 4 pm UTC 8/16 will be a Season 3 Baby Bird.
Genesis Mutant Breeding
There will be an additional advantage to breeding a mutant if the parent is a mutant or two mutants.
Single mutants will get a 25% extra chance of a mutant on top of the base %
Two mutants will get a 50% extra chance of a mutant on top of the base %
Scenario 1: | Breed 3 Mutant with a Breed 2 non-mutant
Breed 3 Mutant 3.5% * (1.25) = 4.375% chance of a Mutation Trait
Breed 2 Non-Mutant = 2.5% chance of a Mutation Trait
Total % chance to get a mutant for parents = (4.375 + 2.5) / 2 = 3.4375%
Scenario 2: | Breed 3 Mutant with a Breed 4 Mutant
Breed 3 Mutant 3.5% * (1.5) = 5.25% chance of Mutation Trait
Breed 4 Mutant 5.0% * (1.5) = 7.50% chance of Mutation Trait
Total % chance to get a mutant for parents = (5.25 + 7.50) / 2 = 6.375%
Genesis Rare Set Breeding
There will also be an additional advantage to breeding a rare set if the parent is a legendary or full set.
Single Legendaries get a 50% extra chance of a Rare Set on top of the base %
Two Legendaries combined get a 100% extra chance of a Rare Set on top of the base %
Full Sets will get an extra 20% chance of a Rare Set on top of the base %, regardless of whether 1 or 2 full sets breed together.
Scenario 1: | Breed 3 Legendary with a Breed 2 Full Set
Breed 3 Legendary 0.3% * (1.5) = 0.45% chance of a Rare Set
Breed 2 Full Set 0.15% * (1.2) = 0.18% of a Rare Set
Total % chance to getting a Rare Full Set = (0.45 + 0.18) / 2 = 0.315%
Scenario 2: | Breed 3 Legendary with a Breed 2 Legendary
Breed 3 Legendary 0.30% * (2) = 0.6% chance of a Rare Set
Breed 4 Legendary 0.75% * (2) = 1.5% chance of a Rare Set
Total % chance to get a mutant for parents = (1.5 + 0.60) / 2 = 1.05%
Although there are not any in-game advantages to playing Fancy Birds or future mini-games with legendary or mutants currently planned (apart from cosmetics and more earning capabilities for mutants), there are exclusive tournaments and possible other future events reserved for Legendaries and Mutants. Exclusive access can mean guaranteed spots for new skins and in-game items, beta testing access for new games, and more in the future.
Season 3 Baby Birds will earn at the same rate as Genesis birds, except they will be capped at 100k/FNC per day between all Season 3 birds, divided evenly based on quest completion percentages in the event the cap is reached. The team may also revise the future earnings amount.
