Ensuring Sustainable Horse Breeding Through a Dynamic Fee & Rarity System

Breeding in MetaHoof is a strategic investment balancing economic health, genetic integrity, and market engagement. Fees are determined by:

  • Base Generation Fee
  • Parent Rarity Multipliers

This model incentivizes thoughtful breeding while regulating supply and preserving rarity.

1️⃣ Base Breeding Fees by Generation

GenerationBase Fee (USD)
G1 (Genesis) Mint$20 (fixed)
G2$18
G3$15
G4+$13

2️⃣ Parent Rarity Multipliers

Each parent's rarity applies a multiplier to the base generation fee:

Parent RarityMultiplier
Common1.0×
Rare1.1×
Legendary1.25×
  • Total Fee = Base Fee × (Multiplier of Parent A) × (Multiplier of Parent B)

Example

For breeding two Rare parents for G2:

F=B×m1×m2

Where:

  • (B = 18) (Base Generation Fee for G2)
  • (m_1 = 1.1) (Multiplier for Parent A)
  • (m_2 = 1.1) (Multiplier for Parent B)

Therefore:

F=18×1.1×1.1=21,6

Resulting in a final breeding fee of $21.60.

3️⃣ Offspring Rarity Probabilities

Parent combinations determine offspring rarity probabilities:

Parent CombinationCommon (%)Rare (%)Legendary (%)
Common + Common80155
Common + Rare702010
Common + Legendary602515
Rare + Rare503020
Rare + Legendary403525
Legendary + Legendary304030

This probability model aligns breeding costs with genetic outcomes, encouraging strategic parent selection.

4️⃣ Strategic Benefits

  • Supply Regulation: Higher fees for rarer parents curb over-breeding.
  • Rarity Preservation: Probability model rewards combining rare lineages.
  • Economic Incentives: Players weigh cost vs. potential offspring value.
  • Market Dynamics: Diverse parent pairings stimulate marketplace activity.

Conclusion

MetaHoof’s updated breeding fee model leverages generation-based costs and parent rarity multipliers, underpinned by a probabilistic rarity table, to balance supply, preserve genetic integrity, and drive a dynamic breeding economy.
