      This video is very very bad compared to some others, if you are confused about how to properly breed and want to actually understand it I would highly recommend TiiaAurora's videos on breeding. I'm not saying this video is wrong, it's just so fast paced and not in depth that you don't get a chance to actually understand anything. For comparison, Tiia's videos about breeding and stacking mutations are 20m each, and are already very compressed with information.

    So if I'm understanding the level cap portion right, you want to breed a "perfect" dino with a low level dino in order to keep most of the stats of a high dino but decrease it's level with a throwaway stat like oxygen? Damn is that clever if that's the case.
    As for breeding the perfect dino army, I'd just keep breeding the 20 mutated M/F dinos indefinitely?

      @Syntac Hey Syntac, I have a few questions if you have time to answer. I'm sure you are busy so if you don't have time don't worry about it. If you have already answered these questions before please ignore them as I must have overlooked them and I apologize ahead of time. I've watched your video a few times now and I've reviewed the other articles I've found that have been posted regarding breeding.
      1. If I have a Male Dino with one melee mutation upgrade +1 (2 melee points) from breeding on the Paternal side that then breeds with his unmuated/base female companions, that then spawns a Female Dino with +2 melee upgrade(4 melee points) on the Paternal side, could I then breed the +1 melee male with the +2 melee female to create +2 melee babies without any negative side effects? I had hoped that I could combine the two together to achieve the +2 melee on a new male and then breed the new +2 melee male with the unmutated females to continue the normal breeding process.
      2. I understand that you can choose to breed only melee with one male and then only health with another male. Is there any downside to mutating some into health and some into melee on one male through breeding instead of focusing on one or the other? Or does it just make tracking the mutations much easier if you keep melee on one male and health on another?
      3. To continue mutating a dino, you basically have to keep starting new breeding lines sort to speak and then once you have a new "max 20/20" male, you breed until you have a max 20/20 female who then will breed with another 20/20 male in order to go above the 20/20 limit to 40/20 for example. New line + Breed with your female squad to mutate on up.
      #1 20/20 Male Breeds with a different line of 20/20 Female to create 40/20 Male.
      #2 40/20 Male then breeds with another new line of 20/20 Female to boost that number to 60/20.
      Is this correct? And I assume you would just keep BASE/non-mutated males in reserve to mate with your female squad.
      4. I believe you went over this but I wanted to make sure I understood correctly. Once a baby is born with a mutation, you 100% want the mutated baby to be a male, not a female so that you can breed with the unmutated females, great. Does the mutation have to strictly come from the Male/Father side or can the mutation come from the Female/Mother side? I thought all of mutations needed to come from the fathers side so that when you breed with a base/unmutated female, the mutations could continue as the female is 0/20. I hope that made sense...as I'm writing it I'm questioning and possibly confusing myself. I may be looking too much into this.
      5. Do the rules of "max level" apply to unofficial/private servers? I've seen a few people posting about how they have level 2000+ Dinos on a private/unofficial server, and even after a restart their dinos are still present. Maybe they are lucky? I 100% would not want my bred dino to be deleted. I understand that on official the level cap of 450 will apply and wipe any dino over that level but I wasn't sure about unofficial/private.

    Just spent 3 days breeding rexes wrong. I had 1 male and 3 females with 3 melee mutations breeding, I thought I was doing so well as I had never done mutations before. I then made the biggest mistake ever. I killed every Rex before those apart from the first wild tamed ones as I thought I would never need them. I saw that they had 4 maternal and 7 patrilineal mutations so I got confused and remembered watching this when it first came out; I watched this to be sure I was stacking correctly. I’m glad I kept the original pair.

    10:50 You forgot one thing: when you get a desired 2nd mutation on a female you want it to mate with an unmutated male until you get a male baby with the mutation. this way you can keep it and keep stacking 2 or more desired stats on varius male dinos. eg.: one male with each x/20 stats in melee, hp, stamina, respectively.

      @@fishskategaming OK let's say you get a Hp mutation on a male. And now you get a disired dmg mutation on a female or vise versa. You want to keep both. Basically you can go 20/20 on the dmg mut. and 20/20 on the HP mut. But you need to do it with 2 different Dinos. Bacause if one Dino has 17 in Hp and 3 in dmg and later you combine the stats by mating with a 13 dmg 7 HP most you will get is a 17hp/13 dmg. But you want 20/20. So keep the mutation of the extra stats in a second Dino or baby which you get on your way anyways. Convert that second Dino into male, by mating, so later on its easier to mate with all the females.
