Basics

We are on generation 12.
We are collecting information on all generations.
Thread is updated up to page 1021.
Looking for new version of level 40 bonus of Air gen 4 knuffel~

Knuffel can be bought here:

You can also get to the shop by clicking on the “Knuffel” link on the navigation bar at the top of the page (below your avatar).
Each Knuffel has only a limited amount (about 500)! Once the supply has been bought up, it will leave the shop. If the shop is empty, it will later be filled with the next generation.

Versions information

There are several different versions of Knuffel, the first version (sold on Gaia) was just a simple, feedable pet that changed depending on how full it was. The next version was then linked to the accounts here on KofK. This version was able to give the owner of the Knuffel food points each time it was fed or played with. We are now on a third version of Knuffel, this version gives the owner food points only when it has leveled up. The version also changes form depending on it’s level (rather than it’s hunger) and it will also be able to dig for materials and give you bonuses when you fight.
The previous two versions are no longer available for purchase, but can still be used (if they haven’t been deleted).
If you have purchased a new Knuffel from the shop, you may find that Knuffel in your Wardrobe underneath your avatar.
The second version of knuffel also appeared there, but since the new version, they were taken down not deleted. If you want to get to your old knuffel, you needed to save a link for them. (If you didn’t, then it may be possible to get to them again if you edit a link, but you’d need to talk to someone about it if you’re not sure what you’re doing.)
Version one Knuffel were deleted if they had not been played with after a year.

Other information

Other questions can be answered in the Knuffel FAQ:


Elements
There are six elements; Fire, Water, Earth, Darkness, Light, and Air.

To dig or fight for materials, you may go to the Quests Page

Energy and Happiness

Energy goes up when you feed your pet, but you can only feed it once roughly every 17 seconds. (If you try too soon, it'll tell you it's still eating and give you a countdown)
1 feeding = 1 exp
Over feeding does not give your Knuffel more exp, it only gains exp from feeding when the bar goes up.
If you try to over feed your Knuffel, it'll tell you it's not hungry.
We're still looking into this, but it seems the Energy bar goes down once every 6 minutes.


Happiness goes up when you play with your pet, but you can only play with it about once every 17 seconds. (It'll give you a count down if you try too soon)
1 toy = 1 exp
Over playing does not give your Knuffel more exp, only when the bar goes up does your knuffel get exp.
If you try to over play, your Knuffel will say it's not interested or it's tired.
We're still looking into this, but it seems the Happiness bar goes down once every 3 to 3.5 minutes.

If you feed your pet, you can play with it right away (if the happiness bar isn't full), the timer does not stop you from doing the opposite action. (Which means you can feed and play with your pet in the same 17 seconds)

Maxed Knuffel
Once a Knuffel is is at its max level, you may choose the stage you would like the knuffel to stay at. You can only choose a stage once.

Fighting for material

This option is not available yet, but there's still information that is available.

Your knuffels do not fight, they just give you stats for when you fight.
The stats are not random, each knuffel type will give you the options for a specific stat bonus.

Digging for material


To dig, you go to a place called "Candy Island", but to get there (besides clicking the banner above) go to the Quests page and click on the "Dig For Material" banner on the left.

What can you dig up?

• Materials for quests
• Food Points (food points you can get at a time are... 10, 50, 200, 500, and 1000)
• Avatar items (avatar items available change after a time)

See This announcement for more details. (these are rare and also depend much on the same stats as for digging up materials. The higher your stat in an element, the higher your chances in that element, but, that doesn't mean you can't find something with low stats.)

This is quoted from one of Firn's posts (page 146 of this thread)
"The higher your Knuffel's level is the higher is your chance of getting items for your avatar from digging. It is like with rare material.
Food on the other hand is a "bonus" when your Knuffel does not find any material. When your Knuffel is level 100 in one element it will always find material or avatar items and no food."

"Digs left today" is reset once every 24 hours.
If you want to know when they will be reset for you, check [this clock]. The time you can judge it by is...
6:00 pm (or 18:00) in the timezone: EST or UTC/GMT -5
Just plug that into the converter and convert it to your timezone and it'll give you the time it resets.
In other words, set the top half like this (don't bother changing the month, day and year, they're automatic, but the hour and minute are not.):
[I'm a link to an image!]
Then enter your information in the bottom half and it should give you the time the 24 hour period resets and whatnot.

Each time your knuffel digs, it's Energy and Happiness go down, so try to feed and play with it between a few digs. (But! You can't tend to it RIGHT after you dig, it needs time to rest!) Your knuffel can also only dig a few times per day. It gets higher as your knuffel's level increases.
****Food points appear to get you less exp than materials. Even when digging outside their element. [See this post]

Digging Inside their element

Failure

• Energy lost: ~ 15
• Happiness Lost: ~ 10
• EXP gained: 1

Success

• Energy lost: 16-20
• Happiness Lost: 5-9
• EXP gained: 3-9

Digging Outside their Element

Failure

• Energy lost: 25
• Happiness Lost: 20
• EXP gained: 1

Success

• Energy lost: 17-30
• Happiness Lost: 15-19
• EXP gained: 13-29

• The element of your knuffel determines what environment it will dig for materials best in.
  
• The higher your knuffel's element, the better it will dig too. (the %)
• Rarity of the item does not determine the amount of exp gained.

Here is the list of places to dig by the element:
Dark Plains
High Plains
Knobby Woods
Fire Mountain
Tower of Light
Frostland Coast


Seems easy, right? Good, now let's learn about your map...

This is what you want to start with.

You use the arrow to view a list of your Knuffel (the name on it will the the Knuffel you have selected currently). The list is also in alphabetical order, so if you're wondering why it's in a different order than in your Wardrobe, don't freak out.
Your Knuffel's stats don't refresh automatically when you feed them in another page, so if you feed them while this window is open, click the "Refresh Stats" button so the up-to-date stats show up.

Leveling Up

Each Knuffel starts out as level 1 and each Knuffel has an Element.
Because it has that element, it will have a bonus to that element at level 1.
EX: Earth Knuffel will start off with a 10% bonus under its Digging stats elements while the other elements for that knuffel will be at 1%.
Each time your Knuffel levels up, you may pick which element to let it level up in.
(This will only make the element you pick go up by 1%).
Also after each level up, the Energy and Happiness bars will also go up
so that you can feed and play with your Knuffel more and let it gain more experience.
Each time your Knuffel levels, you get food points.
(It seems to be about double what the level is.
Meaning: level 5 = 10 food points, level 10 = 20 food points)
There are 100 levels in total, every 25 levels your Knuffel will change to another stage.
(That makes 5 stages in all – images of each stage are in the next few posts.)
Every 20 levels, your knuffel gets a new fight bonus.
(I will list fight bonuses with each knuffel when I find out.)
The amount of times you may dig per day also goes up as its level goes up
(by one every 5 levels).

Totals:
Levels: 100
Digs per day: 25
Food points earned: 10,098 (Profit 7,598)
