Everything about ducks

Duck is a unique token (NFT) on the Waves blockchain.

Genesis duck is a duck obtained from an incubator.

Bred duck is a duck produced by breeding.

🏆 Jackpot is an extraordinary duck with a fixed rarity of 100%.

🔥 Phoenix is one of the jackpot ducks. You can get a phoenix only as a result of rebirth.

Genotype

The genotype of a duck determines its appearance and includes 8 genes. Each gene is responsible for one of the attributes: hair, eyebrows, eyes, beak, body, left wing, right wing, and tail.

Genesis ducks have the following genes:

AAAAAAAA - Elon

BBBBBBBB - Satoshi

CCCCCCCC - Doge

DDDDDDDD - Bogdanoff

EEEEEEEE - Chad

FFFFFFFF – Harold

GGGGGGGG — Pepe

HHHHHHHH — El Risitas

IIIIIIII — Druck (likes)

IIIIIIII — Druck (dislikes)

KKKKKKKK — Drama Queen

LLLLLLLL — Ō Sensei

MMMMMMMM — Cough Duck

NNNNNNNN — Vibing Duck

OOOOOOOO — Brokie Duck

Each attribute is inherited with a 50% probability either from the first or the second parent when you breed ducks. So, for example, the MLBBCKKD duck got hair from Cough Duck, eyebrows from Ō Sensei, eyes and beak from Satoshi, etc.

👉 Druck has two images: «likes» or «dislikes». Which one you get depends on the token ID. The offspring duck image also depends only on its ID and does not depend on the image of the parent duck.

Artefacts can add special genes to the duck genotype:

  • “Pompadour” replaces the first gene (“hair”) with S.

  • “X-mas Hat” replaces the first gene with a T.

Special genes cannot be inherited because these artefacts only apply to sterile ducks. In addition, artefacts cannot be used on Genesis ducks and jackpots.

The full version of the genotype also includes letters of generation and background color:

Generation

Ducks from the incubator belong to generation G – Genesis. Breeding produces ducks of the following generations:

H – Hero

I – Ideal

K – Knight

L – Lord

M – Magical

N – Natural

O – Obstinate

A bred duck belongs to the generation following the generation of the youngest parent:

Genesis + Genesis = Hero

Hero + Hero or Genesis = Ideal

Ideal + Ideal, or Hero, or Genesis = Knight

Knight + Knight, or Ideal, or Hero, or Genesis = Lord

etc.

The youngest generation duck (now Obstinate) cannot breed.

Background color

A new duck’s background color is determined randomly:

R – red

Y – yellow

G – green

B – blue

To farm eggs, a duck should be put on a perch of a matching color.

Rarity

Rarity of a duck is an indicator of its uniqueness. The rarer a duck is, the more Waves Ducks EGGs it can bring in farming and the higher its value in the marketplace.

The duck’s rarity depends on its genotype and is calculated by this formula:

Where:

  • R is the duck’s rarity,

  • N is the number of ducks of the same generation, with the same genes, excluding their order. The background color of the duck is not taken into account.

For example, for the Hero generation duck with a genotype of KKKLLLLL, the number of Hero ducks with 3 K genes and 5 L genes in any order is counted. This category also includes ducks of LLLLLKKK, LLKKLKLL, and others. If there are only 25 such ducks, the rarity of the new duck is ⅕, which is 20%.

The rarity of a duck may change if a duck of the same generation with the same proportion of genes appears in the game.

Ability to breed

Each duck can originally breed. Duck can be used for breeding only once, after that it becomes “sterile.”

The ability of a duck to breed does not affect its productivity in farming but increases its potential value in the marketplace to the players who are looking for a duck to breed.

Achievement

Achievement is a distinctive fact of the duck's biography, which makes it more precious.

Jackpot ducks

🏆 Jackpot is an extraordinary duck with a fixed rarity of 100%. There may be several similar jackpots, but the rarity of each one is still 100%.

🔥 Phoenix is one of the jackpot ducks. You can get a phoenix only as a result of rebirth.

Other jackpot ducks may appear from the incubator (very rare!).

Features of jackpot ducks:

  • Jackpot ducks cannot breed and cannot appear as a result of breeding. The letter of generation for jackpot ducks is J which means Jackpot.

  • The letter of background color for jackpot ducks is U which means Universal. So jackpot ducks can be put on a perch of any color.

  • Jackpot duck appearance is not directly related to the genotype.

Example jackpot ducks:

WWWWWWWW – Sasha

WWWWWWWP – Phoenix

WWWWWWWM — Mani

WWWWLUCK — LUCK & WISDOM
