Understanding UMA Affinity Calculations
In strategic breeding and character optimization systems, maximizing ancestral affinity is the absolute cornerstone of competitive success. The system translates physical compatibilities, shared training backgrounds, track preferences, and historical accomplishments into an aggregate score. This score establishes the probability index for physical and tactical talent propagation during breeding runs.
- Base_A, Base_B = Core character compatibility parameters defined by internal category tables (up to 100).
- Tag_Bonus = Modifier awarded for shared ancestral characteristics (such as running style or distance alignments).
- G1_Shared = Number of identical high-tier G1 races won by both parent lineage trees.
- M = G1 Race Multiplier constant, typical standard set to 1.0 or 2.0 based on game generation.
Strategic Stance: Relying on generic parent combinations with high individual stats is a classic sub-optimal trap. Unless ancestral compatibility exceeds 150 points, the chance of inheriting premium 3-Star Factors drops exponentially.
To reach the legendary **Double Circle (◎)** rating, meticulous planning of race campaigns is required. Ensuring both parent lines win the identical set of Classic G1 trophies (such as the Triple Crown Series) grants a profound "G1 compatibility bonus." This bonus can bypass low baseline breed compatibilities completely.
| Tier Class | Score Boundary | Factor Pass Rate Modifier | Optimization Directive |
|---|---|---|---|
| Double Circle (◎) | ≥ 150 Points | MAXIMUM (+35%) | Preferred configuration. Optimal for passing gold traits. |
| Single Circle (○) | 51 to 149 Points | Baseline Rate (+15%) | Acceptable for budget training. High-end stats are risky. |
| Triangle (△) | ≤ 50 Points | Severe Penalty (-50%) | Discard combination immediately. Waste of resources. |
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the "G1 Race Bonus" and why does it trump core statistics?
Each shared G1 race won by both parents adds points to the compatibility equation. If your parent nodes both hold titles in the same prestigious races, they acquire identical "experiential markers." This dynamic is highly opinionated and often ignored by beginners, who wrongly prioritize raw stats over parallel race record development.
Can I achieve a double circle rating with incompatible parent styles?
Yes. Although pairing a Short-Distance Sprinter with a Long-Distance Marathoner starts with a base penalty, you can offset this deficit by running both lines through an identical 15-race G1 campaign. The resulting G1 Race Bonus will inflate the rating into high compatibility territory.
