I am finally starting to get into levelling fodder (Mostly because I had too many and I didn't feel like trying to sell them all for like 1kpbs each) so I threw one onto a team with another wolf I wanted to level while getting some of the Murkwood challenges done. I have mostly been waiting for level 10 to release them, but I was wondering if someone had actually made a profit point, or if there was some fodder level to fodder payout like in Flight Rising that I was not seeing yet.

I breed my own fodder, so whatever level I release them at is profit for me. However, I do always go to level 10, as you get a knucklebone token at lv10 in addition to the 10k pebbles.

Edit to add: I think a lot of people who release fodder wolves for income regularly, make use of the xp companions. There are some cheap companions (like the basidio and kuzma) who award wolf xp when bonded with and can be bonded with on the hour (those with a longer playing cooldown aren't worth it). You can equip this to pups and already level them up while they are still pups. Mine generally are lv8 or 9 by the time they grow up and I only need to level them a bit more before they reach lv10 to be released.

I honestly don't know if levelling them in the campaign all the way from lv1 is worth the time and food it requires.

I've got a few knucklebones but I don't know what they do. So far all they've done is sit in my inventory gathering dust. I haven't really been fully active on site since the beta aside from doing some fishing and cooking and mining on the side to get some quick pebbles, this is really the first I'm fully engaged in the site lol.

That being said I'm mostly using Murkwood's supplies to train 1 perma and 1 fodder inbetween 3 level 10s. I don't have enough companions to even try to put them all on my wolves to passively gain exp
