.::: Mate 'IQ' :::.

[Brista]

My mate is about a 8.6 he hunts and somehow manages to feed all the pups at once, and if I make the first move attacking a coyote he will kill it. Unfortunatly he will run into the den on occasion but not for very long. I havn't gotten to the final journey yet but I don't think he will drown any....

[PurpleCherries]

My mate is somewhat smart. He feeds the pups, takes them back to the den after they wander off, and helps me hunt. When I choose the den at Bison Peak, he gets stuck right behind the tree and runs in place. It's really frustrating. Other than that, he is absolutely perfect!

[battlerose]

ugh. my mate is very very very very very to infinity STUPID. he will kidnap the pups one by one and drown them!!! when i kill a bunny for myself he eats it! and when bob comes to attack the pups he just stands there casually. he wont help kill the elk either. -.-

[HowlOfAShadowWolf]

My mate was pretty good, He went off to hunt for a little while then would let me go and get a break. He would also chase off bears and coyotes.

The only things that annoyed me was that he would get stuck behind the den sometimes and when I went to the Cattle ranch he left our pups alone to come hunt me down.


But, He was pretty good at helping.

[Swordmaster757]

Ok. So far I've had three mates...

Me: Oldfang
Mate: Icefang

Icefang was a good mate. She hunted for the pack, helped me fend off predators, bears included, helped me hunt, and would sometimes attack predators before I did. She brought pups back to the den when they needed to learn to stay there so that I could keep the markings up. She rarely got stuck also. On the final journey, she only left when the pups needed food. She brought pups to me, and was very useful. All in all, i'd probably rate her as a 10.

Me: ?
Her: Ice

Ice, unlike icefang was/is certifiably insane. She's a wild, uncouth, rabid wild beast wild a strong case of ADHD, and that's helped and hurt me. My character on this file has no speed. He's strickly power, with moderate stamina. That said, he can kill what he catches...its just that he can't catch anything. I even have to angle catch hares, and elk I have to trap. He has no capabilities of keeping up with a coyote, so in his own way, he needs her and doesn't need her. Ice is a true killer of coyotes. She has a very odd strategy for everything that she kills....Run it over. This includes me. If I'm in the way, or stalking my prey...Ice will be moving and pushing me forward. This has a disadvantage to it as Ice has repeatedly moved while I was still trying to target the weakest elk. She ran forward spooked the pack, attacked nothing, and happily as ever came back to me...that or pushed me so far that the pack got spooked. I haven't played with her and pups yet...but insane wolf that she is, it will be interesting to see how it plays out. So far, I rank her a 4. Her speed...which ? doesn't have, and her love of killing coyotes...which ? can't catch is the only reason that she
s that high.

Me: Oddfang
Mate: Breeze

Breeze was good. She was similiar to Icefang in all aspects. Breeze loved to hunt more, and wasn't the quickest to help against predators, but she did help a few times. In the final mission, Breeze was overprotective of the pups some by making sure that she moved them with me no matter what. Still, she did fend off the eagle when I lagged, and didn't abandon the pups when they were in trouble. All in all, I'd rate Breeze a 9. Her only other weakness was that she'd gltich behind the den sometimes.

Mate is 7-9. He has seemed to get smarter throughout my years of playing. Right now he won't hunt for my pups... which is quite irritating. But he helps defend our pups from predators. Which is fine, because I just pick up carcasses on the way ^^.

[darkshadow626]

I'd say my mate is a 7-9 she is a good mate and knows what to do and where to be she also helps out with the pups really well.

[Floofysaur]

My Mate Copper, wasn't the smartest this time, so I'd give him a 5.6 to the least. He'll hunt and stay around the pups for a while, but then just wander off. So having that ideal isn't very smart, but he's catching up.

[Emiere]

• My wolf's mate [Shilo] is alright. She dosen't do much in terms of training the pups or marking the territory, but she is pretty much always hunting, and when she comes back to the den she'll stay and protect the pups if I go off to hunt. She was also a big help during the journey to the rendezvous site, too; she'd always carry the pups across the water while I went off to get food, or defend against some predator. Overall, I'd give my wolf's mate an eight.

[Tatkret]

My mate, Eagle, was a 3-5. He was always hunting and never defended our pups from predators. If I was running while holding a pup, he'd pick another one up and carry it to wherever I was. Once, he set a pup down right in front of a grizzly.It was my favorite, Flower. She survived, luckily. Eagle saved the pups from dying of hunger on several occasions. He fed my pups, but when I got all four to the summer rendezvous point, he was in Amethyst Mountain hunting. Flower kept wandering off the rendezvous point, but eventually Eagle came back and we won the game.

[whisperer]

I rate my first wolf, Dusk's mate, at 8 because he was genuinely helpful at looking after the pups and stalking prey, and he was so determined. I loved him sooo much, before I lost the game when I got a new computer.
My second wolf, Serenity's mate called Hawk, I would give 3 because, when in Amethyst Mountain, he ran off for ten minutes and left me standing there howling for ages, and he kept getting sidetracked. He did come back eventually...And he would constantly almost kill himself whilst hunting, or run off in mid-hunt.
Then in Slough Creek, he ran off with my favorite pup half an hour into the game, after running off for ages just before I got the pups, and didn't come back no matter how many times I howled. When I restarted the game he was there...but...no fourth pup. He constantly disappears all the time.

[CookiePup]

Mine is very active, frequently runs to the elk area and comes back and feeds the pups. But he recently took a pup in his mouth and ran around the den like mad - with the pup in his mouth. He also gets bored when we're running and runs in an S form. Ha ha, he's like a teenager. XD I don't know what his parenting IQ is, but as far as humour goes he's a 10! =D

Who knew Fear of Commitment existed amongst wolves. XD

(male) Storm - Rate 5/10

He was good at some points until you got to the final chapter. I would bring the pups across the river, and then he come across and bring them back to where I had started. It frustrated me, and I ended up surviving with one pup (Coco) Plus he ran off in the middle of the journey all the way back to the den and never came back, I howled about 6 times, and still nothing, I had to save and reload.

[Chizuru Yukimaru]

My mate, is the reason why I only have 1 Pup left... Poor Rift... Anyways, If i had to rate him, I would rate him... 1/1000... He is really terrible I mean it...
Like He would take one of my pups to the hawk and suddenly let it take them away!
Then he would drown one of them!
Then he left one in front of a Coyote... That was pretty STUP.ID of HIM!
