Mastering Animal Husbandry in Necesse: A Complete Breeding Guide
In the diverse world of Necesse, success hinges on resourcefulness. While gameplay styles vary, animal breeding remains a constant. This guide provides a comprehensive overview of breeding mechanics in Necesse.
Taming Animals in Necesse
Before embarking on your breeding endeavors, ensure your animals remain within your settlement. Taming in Necesse mirrors Minecraft's system: offer wheat as a treat to cultivate their affection. Wheat is readily available; you can cultivate it or find it within caves.
Feed wheat directly or utilize Feeding Troughs for efficiency. Troughs minimize manual feeding, allowing you to focus on settlement development and defense. However, neglecting trough refills leads to lost taming progress due to starvation. Successfully tamed animals become integral to your settlement, enabling the breeding process.
Breeding Animals in Necesse
With a tamed animal population, expansion is simplified through breeding. Similar to Pokémon, a male and female of the same species are required (no Ditto equivalents here!). Enclose the pair within a fence; once fully tamed, they'll enter "Love Mode," eventually producing offspring. Growth to adulthood takes additional time.
Overcrowding hinders breeding. Smaller, dedicated breeding pens are recommended, transferring animals individually as needed. While initially time-consuming, automation offers a solution.
Automating Breeding in Necesse
For those less inclined towards hands-on husbandry, recruiting Settlers provides a solution. The Animal Keeper can manage all husbandry tasks, including trough maintenance, ensuring animal well-being and streamlining the breeding process. While oversight remains necessary, animal care becomes less demanding.
This concludes the comprehensive guide to animal husbandry and breeding in Necesse.
Necesse is currently available in Early Access on Steam.
