Likely the answer in this post is closer to the truth. I just tested it, and finally managed to raise my Foxen:Sionnach-level by having Aptitude D. (and Hornball on both, which could be a fluke). Meanwhile, Even triple D-ranks by themselves do nothing on Bees or Lykos.
My guess would be, that he implemented the essence-system, but hasn't yet implemented a way to "view" it. So it is just limited to brute-forcing, intuiting and/or cheating the system for now.
Either way: (Adding to this as I go)
EDIT2: Despite what others have said, breeding up higher-tier abilities is now very much possible.
EDIT3: Correction: It seems that breeding traits up to rank 2 IS possible, but Breeding up to rank 3 IS NOT.
I'm guessing the thinking is, that you'll need the "potent"-trait that boosts inheritance, assuming it's not just a bug.
All Essence 2-locks presumably involve breeding two nephelym with the same trait, in order to unlock.
Sionnach Essence 1- Aptitude D
Vulpuss 1 - Apt D
Ayshire 1 - Apt D
Orc 1 - Apt D
Lykos 1 - Fertility C (possibly any C-rank)
Wulf 1 - Fer C (-II-)
Kestrel 1 - Fer C (-II-)
Drake 1 - Fer C (-II-)
Wyvern 1 - Fer C (-II-)
Bull 1 - C (Apt or Fer?)
Tabby 1 - Apt C (Any C?)
EDIT: having gone through enough, my first bet would be that a lot of early-game morphs essence 1 goal is "Have 1 C-rank". The exception to this are the variants that can spawn with a C-rank naturally, like Formurians, Bovaurs etc.
I still have not found a way to abandon/cancel quests... so I'm assuming there isn't a proper way of doing it.
Of course they would resort to the simplest and most lazy way of fixing the bug, without taking in consideration people who, you know, have already accepted the quest...
Or they could just implement a way for abandoning quests and the problem would solve itself...
hey, so I altered my save file version from 111 to the current version and it seemed to work until I tried nephelym hunting but none will spawn. Anyone know why or a fix?

don't know if hornball is the key to have on a nephelym I managed to level up the essence a few times with Lykos to perhaps 5, I tried the same trick with Foxen, but it would not work with a triple A and triple S, I didn't paied attention to Hornball, I was like: damn, it's harder than I thought, so I cheated instead.
Perhaps I should have tried to see which Traits would make the level up instead of cheats, maybe next time...
Dang, that Sseth video really did a number on the game's populatiry lol
Let's hope that at least that way more people notice the grind problems with it so there's more preasure on the dev to at leaaaaaaaaaaast make a saves compatibility QoL feature or tool at once, or something alike.
on that note, (last time i played was a similar build to sseth's) it seems the price and harvest of everything went down, World levels aren't a thing but traits and pregnancy are vastly more common
with that said ascending stock seems to be pointless currently right?
So is it better to download from here or to just use a burner steam account to ease updates?
Are there supporter only versions that get shared here or something?
It's 1 year old nearly and there is no content update into the game since. Just a fancy UI and broken systems. The steam version will be the most stable experience for a looong time. I still prefer the steam version and I keep that version.
What are you talking about? There are tons of indie developers out there at adult or non-adult industry which handles thing way better. So this is not about it at all. He gets about 50k after Taxes btw, one year ago.
He is not solo. All the UI work came from somewhere else and the game systems at steam version is done by me.
He got sponsorship from the dildo company this year and made some builds only about those dildo devices.
Now he paid for SSeth to get more people to his scam. He is working probably few hours per week, maybe month as you can see the content.
He is just milking as people throw money to him. I don't judge him as he just found the gold mine and mining it without any effort.
