Is any one having a problem with there thrall eating? Ours are eating everything and in a few min at that. They are going to starve to death i n a few he’s because we can’t keep up with their hunger. Food does not show in inventory and their hunger shows at half.
Funcom has changed how we keep thralls/pets alive and buffed. It’s been changing slowly over the last several patches … rather disorganised and not tested on test live before they dump it onto all three platforms …
Now they will not die from starvation/hunger so no need to keep them fed unless you want to give them preferred food to give them a buff during combat.
Unfortunately now they instantly consume ALL food items you put into their inventory… raw, cooked, crafted, preferred and non-preferred.
They seem to be taking food items from the thrall pot/feed box at an accelerated rate as well … I calculated on an official server that you need 144 pieces of preferred food per npc per day in a feeder to keep them buffed.
Instead of starving to death their presence is linked to an owner logging into the game. It is not linked to building decay, it has its own seperate settings. So long as you log in before the ThrallDecayTime then all the timers across the entire map will be reset for your thralls/pets (no need to go visit them. Mmm strange we have to visit our non-living owned items to “keep them alive”, but our pets and reluctant employees don’t care if we never visit. Sad that I have more affection for them than they have for me.)
I had at least 6 thrall pots and 8 food crates…all were empty when I logged in…the panic was real lol
Though I wish I had time to pull it all and put in the fridge and save. Ah well no sweat
