Problems spawning ewecus.


Recommended Posts

So i am on PS4 and am trying to get the brush but i need to kill ewecus for some steel wool. I have probably spawned about 15 koelefants and no varg no ewecus have ever spawned. The world is currently on day 550+- and we have spent the last 4 seasons just searching for suspicious piles of dirt non stop to try spawn ewecus. Am i doing something wrong? Is it normal to have spawned around 15 koelefants with no varg or ewecus ever spawning? Is there a trick to this that i am unaware of? Or am i just extremely unlucky or is this some kind of weird bug? All my world settings are set to default except i made the world size set to large

I also have this problem and I know abaut others too. Normally every third hunt will be something other than a koalafant, wich means statistically every sixth hunt will give you an ewecus. That doesn't seem to work right now,  I have no idea why... maybe the beta changed something that caused this bug?...

I also saw that someone reported this bug, hopefully they'll fix it.

(And of course there is some chance, mathematically, that you only get koalafants... but it's far to little to be practically true, if you ask me.)

I'm on PC and I have this problem too. My current world is full of koalephants all around, and once I got a varg. I'm on day 270+ and I've been looking for an ewecus since day one, and wasting a lot of my time just looking for footprints. The only time I'm not looking for it is during summer because I'm into the caves. I found a varg long ago but no luck with ewecus.

In my previous world I found an ewecus after 160 days only looking for one (from day 90+ to 250+). That time, I found a varg and the next one was the ewecus.

 

Not only because I want to get the ewelet pet so bad (yes pet haters, I'm throwing my life away looking for a fluffy unuseful animal), but also ewecus is awesome to see! I said the same short ago in a different thread, but a super tough ewe that performs flying kicks!! It's too good and such a waste of amazing design and animations that deserves to be seen more frequently!!

I think instead of the tracks being the same, they should have different tracks, like the normal one for Koalaphants/Vargs, and the other is a snot one that guarantees an Ewecus. It won't be common, but this way it won't make people search for tracks only to find another Koalaphant.

Hmmm interesting. Anyone know the @ of one of the active devs so they can confirm if its a bug or just an increadibly low spawn rate?

I can confirm with multiple servers up to 500 days + that nothing except koalafants spawn. One of my friends actually forgot what vargs even where, we had to explain it to him and he remembered. I feel like I haven't seen one in many months of playing this game.

I actually never have this problem myself. I usually refrain from hunting before the first Winter is over, then I get two, maybe three Koalafants and after that it's either a Varg or an Ewecus for me. Usually a Varg though, then it takes me a few extra hunts.

I don't know if he is the right person, and I guess they already read this thread, but maybe @nome?

Wow. That hurts compared to the other experiences posted xD

Fixed! Thanks for bringing this up guys. The fix will be in the next update/patch.

Wonderful, thank you so much! :) We'll get back out sheeps at last!

Honestly, I haven't found anything than koalafants in the last half year. A half real life year. The only exception was once on a public server on day 3, where I was starving and than got a warg.
