Effective today β October 4, 2026 (after today's maintenance), on every ASA map.
πΌ What changed
- β±οΈ Baby care requests (cuddle, walk, or a requested food) β were every ~80 minutes, now every 48 minutes
- π Imprint gained per care β now 2Γ (the total still stops at 100%)
β¨ What it means for you
- You reach 100% imprint with about half of the care requests β miss one here and there (say, while you sleep) and you can still finish at 100%.
- Before, every single request was needed, and one missed care cost its share for good (about 16.7% on a Rex, 50% on a Raptor).
π Examples (answering each request on time)
- π¦ Rex β up to 11 requests while it grows; about 6 are enough for 100% (around 4 h 48 min after birth)
- π¦ Giganotosaurus β up to 30 requests; about 15β16 are enough
- π¦ Raptor β up to 4 requests; about 2β3 are enough
These numbers are approximate β they can differ slightly between creatures because of the game's own rounding.
π What stays the same
- Baby maturation 10x and egg hatching 10x
- The imprint bonus: up to +20% stats (except stamina, oxygen and crafting skill), and +30% damage and resistance while the imprinter rides it
Thank you for the feedback that led to this change. If anything looks off after the update, tell us in the ASA group chat. π
