Sheep

Value Proposition

The sheep is a workhorse, an essential part of the Wolf Game ecosystem. Many community members compare sheep to crypto miners. At the core of it, Sheep are valuable because of their energy. However, how you spend your energy in the game will define your success. There are certainly smart ways to put your Sheep to work, and the ever changing Wolf Game economy creates an environment where you need to be ready to pivot strategies if you want to play optimally at all times.

Gathering

While gathering, sheep will produce resources and shiny boxes. All of which can be used to advance your game or even sold to other players for Wool in the game. Gathering requires a few items:

Unit	Amount
Energy	10 energy + 2 per day collecting
Wool	25 wool burn fee

NOTE: The wool fee may change over time, reference the Woolpaper or click "gather" on a sheep in-game for real time costs.

How to Gather

There are multiple ways to initiate gathering in the game. For smaller players, you can select your sheep in the game, walk up to a resource, click the resource, and initiate gathering. However for larger players, the in-game tools are immensely valuable. From the My NFTs view, you can select "List" to see more sheep at once, then use the Quick Gather and Mass Claim actions to manage as many sheep as you want at once.

WARNING!! Be sure to watch your Loot Rank, as you climb the rankings in your community, your odds of getting looted by a wolf increase!

Resources

Gathering Resources is all about longevity and claiming on a sunny day. If you can gather in longer sprints, your earnings increase dramatically, this is due to the gathering rate multiplier. Each consecutive day a sheep gathers, it gathers faster. Learn more about the Farmers ability to significantly extend your gathering rates and productivity here.

Gathering Daily Multiplier
Day 2	Day 10	Day 20	Day 30	Day 40	Day 50
1.03x	1.24x	1.59x	2.01x	2.48x	3x

Weather Multiplier

Weather also effects your ability to maximize profits. Claiming on Sunny day will multiplier your resources another 1.2x on top of the daily gathering multiplier. As the average gathering length on the farm drops, the weather multiplier becomes a bigger factor. This is because your sheep will burn through a lot more energy gathering, and margins can become very thin.
