Kubrow


 * For the Wild Kubrows, see Kubrow (Feral).

The Kubrow are a canine-like monotreme species (laying eggs instead of giving live birth) that originally served as companions and pets for the Orokin, and later as attack and guard animals for the Orokin elite. After the downfall of the Orokin, surviving Kubrow on Earth adapted and became feral with only the most aggressive and ferocious surviving. Recent DNA-altering technologies have been unearthed that can allow them to once again be domesticated to become loyal and protective companions to their new owner.

Obtaining a Kubrow
The Kubrow pet can be acquired by doing the Howl of the Kubrow Quest line.

Attention: Currently only one Kubrow Egg can be in the player's inventory. If an Egg has already been collected the second Egg will be impossible to pick up and must be left behind. To continue collecting Kubrow Eggs, the first egg must be placed into the Kubrow Incubator (Requires an active Kubrow slot).

Bugs

 * Setting a marker/waypoint on your Kubrow will indicate it as an enemy; this occurs with all companions.
 * The Kubrow, unlike Sentinels, will not revive when its owner uses a revive. (Bug or feature?)
 * Spamming the interact key (default 'E') will push the Kubrow to temporarily live outside the incubator. Relogging or playing a mission will fix this.
 * Sometimes you cannot regain loyalty from petting your Kubrow (Unconfirmed).

Trivia

 * It can be assumed that Kubrow pets are hatched from genetically modified feral Kubrow eggs.
 * Though we never see the genetic manipulation of the egg, it would be impossible to simply have a modern feral Kurbow egg hatch into variants of Orokin Kubrows without some sort of genetic template to reverse the evolution.
 * An Orokin Kubrow contained in a stasis cell found in the Clan Dojo's Orokin Lab could explain where the genetic templates were produced from.
 * This could also explain the reasoning behind the DNA degradation.
 * Many of the first batch of Kubrows who matured after Update 14's release were inadvertently killed permanently due to a bug during the quest to obtain their collar. In the notes for the hotfix which fixed the bug, DERebecca posted, "501 of the first cloned Kubrow have been lost, but never forgotten. 20/07/2014." Those who lost a Kubrow from the bug received; the Kubrow Start Kit and a full set of Kubrow Mods, a new Kubrow Egg, a Kubrow Incubator, Kubrow Food, a Kubrow Stasis Slot, a Kubrow blank Trait Print, and 10 x Kubrow Mods.
 * Ordis has a particular distaste for Kubrows, frequently expressing it before correcting himself.
