Standards vary between each user. Often rated using rarity, talent count, boost, or defect. | | Hero | | wolf's capability in a disaster. Rating is visible in the "Vitals" section at the bottom of a wolf's page. Having all "+" makes the wolf a hero. | | BW | Battle Wolf | a wolf with excellent potential for battle.

WP wolves inherit traits only from the parents and grandparents, but any further back in the ancestry of a wolf still will not be able to pass defects/boosts on to further generations. Boosts: (a wolf with an increased CP cap. Instead of having a 200 CP cap, the wolf gets a 250 CP cap on a specific stat instead)

Majority of the people abbreviate Health points to HP. Maybe add that one on as well. |

This has been helpful for me to know all of these meanings, but I originally came here to see what MI stands for. |

I believe it's Minimum Increase. For example, if the MI was 10 mush and the person before you in the auction bidded 210 mush, the minimum you could bid would be 220. Hope I helped. ^-^ |

Could we possibly add more abbreviated words?
OP - overpowered wolves. Say if your wolves leave a PVP match without a single HP point lost, or they kill prey in one or two hits.

Crystaline-- I will only add words commonly seen in forums or chat. Wolves hitting prey in 1-2 hits are fairly common and not needed to be mentioned. |
