Is it true that beating Tina makes the game harder?
Oh god I forgot about the sharks

pyrophina MOGGED by old garden hoseand ranger with 23 DEX + guaranteed 300% damage crits
The Frankie upgrade requirements are just overkill man.
>>733438402>old garden hoseI haven't seen that shit in ages at this point
>>733438402rangers are incredibly busted
>>733438402one of the most surprisingly versatile weapons in the game, love that thing
I actually can't get 1 single neutral/positive event in the desert across 5 different runs. I have literally gotten a disorder on my cleric on the first event 4 runs in a row. Doesn't matter what my stats are or what I pick, I'm going to get AIDS, deja vu (you can get this from an event involving little steven), PTSD, depression or some other stupid shit. Then I fail every single event after the first event, giving me extra boss fights to do or setting everything on fire. Then I beat zodiac and all my cats are 5HP with 1-2 injuries each and I'm wondering if I should just go home or now.
>>733438402Man I've got pyrophina attacks going on and my breeding operation isn't anywhere close to that.Range especially I was trying to get some skills on my one cat with a good range stat and got ultra cucked by the junkyard
Good morning, gentlemen.I just wanted to sayFUCK THE DESERTThat is all, thank you
Built for _____ ___?
4 NORMAL NIGGAS IN A ROW Doing this with the D6 level up side quest, now this is min maxxing unlocks
>RNGslop
>>733438642The devs need to fix this bullshit. Sometimes I fail random events with stats over 12. At that point it's just anti-fun. The game already balances this by having a random cat try the event which by itself guarantees you won't always succeed even if you always have a good cat for the options given.
Nevermind the fucking acid slime niggers broke the quest item AGAIN
>reach act 2Im no longer having fun, bros
>>733438795
>>733438867Why are you sending a cat with the quest item within the attack range of these slimes? I don't understand how people manage to do that over and over again. Just bodyblock them with a cat that has an equipment you can afford losing, then range them until all are dead. Or at the very least just hide the cat with the quest item and let them destroy everybody else's equipment if necessary.
I just bought it. So far it's fun
>>733438876Same, can't tell if it's because the game got harder or if I feel it's hard because of bullshit like not being able to heal post battle in the 1st chapter
>>733438876Did you beat Tina yet?I unlocked act 2 but haven't tried it yet. Instead I beat Tina 1 and 2, and I'm on my way to beat Tina 3. Then I'll breed some good cats that can handle the desert. Already have cats that can create water puddles. You should try beating Tina before going to act 2 she is a very easy fight.
Any advantage to taking less than 4 cats on adventures? I assume they level up faster and there's less competition for items?
Retard tips for beginners? I got my ass kicked by the sewer blob
>>733438928Because the preview of their attack range doesn't show how far they can reach when they get two turns in a roundAnd the cat was fully equipped so it should only be a chance of breaking the quest item but I'm sure McMuffin rigged that shit because he thinks its funny
I GOT TO BE TOUGHTHIS WORLD IS SO ROUGH
Why can't I plan my routes with shift click or something.Is it to make Fenrir not a total joke?
>>733438795BNCBig Necromancer Cat
>>733438876>>733438984Get water anything, debuff cleanse or just stall rounds to heal up.>>733439010They level up faster and more.Its possible to even solo runs if your cat is busted and theres completion marks in doing so (no unlocks, just bragging rights autism)
>>733439209>debuff cleansedoes not work
>>733439146limitations the player has to work around are good.
>>733439030The one that tosses you around?It's super easy, just don't put your units in places where it can toss them on spikes.
The ice boss sucks assdick
>>733439010I don't think taking less than 4 cats is a "feature". It's just the result of the devs not wanting to arbitrarily force you to always take 4 cats. You can take up to 4. There is no way to ensure this would be beneficial, 99% of the time it won't be.The one advantage I can think of is you can hyperlevel a bunch of cats and then do house defense with 4 overleveled retired cats.
You have to beat everything solo with each class to finish the game
>>733439146Its bullshit but its to make tiles more dangerous.But fenrir is a joke if you have literally anything other than just plain attacking.>Wind cuts the grass>Fire burns the grass>ice turns the grass into spikes>Earth turns the grass into dirt>water+lightning>Familiars just run into the traps for you>Any nomiss item or marked on a ranged>Any goad/taunt/bait spell>any non miss aoe
>>733439386Cats that do solo/duo runs get more levels, which is good for making Tina easier and getting more passives for breeding.
Based sociopath perk
Got into throbbing domain for the first time and IDK what people were even complaining about, shit easy, both fights won in first action of first turnIgnore that my psychic cat got deal 1 damage to every enemy when killing anything passive, that got boosted to 3 damage thanks to two +1 magic damage items, making it so killing 1hp larva killed entire rooms
>>733439630Yes, that's what I said. Did you read the post fully?>The one advantage I can think of is you can hyperlevel a bunch of cats and then do house defense with 4 overleveled retired cats.
>>733439010I genuinely don't see a point in using less than 4. Yes they level up more. But most good house upgrades require retired cats and taking less than 4 is just lenghtening an already slow process.
>>733439609Thank god I had that one tank move on my monk that could remove terrain or else this run would have been turbo fucked
>>733438795catsare finetoo
I love my inbred abominationI love her mutations and defects giving her free access to snipe, terrain walk and trampleI do NOT love her inbred numbers, jesus they're awful
>>733438876You just need to realize that once you hit act 2 you can no longer play like a caveman going for hyperaggressive short-term kills and instead need to start planning 2-3 turns ahead and minimize your losses>do I get this free melee kill in exchange for getting gangbanged by adjacent units?>if I position my slow as shit glass cannon hunter here, will I regret it in 2 turns?>do I use my once-per-battle consumable on turn 1 or do I save it in the event of a crisis?and so on
>>733439694That's a dumb question, I obviously didn't read your whole post.
>>733439938Well, you should. My posts are notorious for being high quality.
>>733438876>kill Tina 2 without effort>"ok, maybe im ready for the desert now">imediatelly regret my choice
Just in case anyone was wondering, bandit mask works with druid.The descriptions says it spawns coins when you damage enemies with your basic attack, as far as I can tell it doesn't even need to heal, as long as they're a target it spawns coins.Naturally this is a money factory even without familiars.
>>733439971Wait for Tina 3 and focus on breeding decent catsStart by discarding any cat with stats inferior to 5The moment I started breeding cats with 5-7 stats everything got much betterI also try to focus on constitution and mana regen because everything else is easy to compensate for
>>733439968But every post is from you, mr. Anonymous
>>733439840>1 luckShe's gonna get raped on the first random event
where does this version of the boss theme play? the only version I heard is the one with caveman gibberish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txOHKAHEIX0
>>733440285You need to be a 0 IQ retard to understand it
>>733440285it doesn't, people say it plays in that very fight if you're int 0 but it's fake news
>>733440432negative int, mayhaps?
>>733440560I had 2 downies and it was still oogabooga
HehThe random target part is worrying, even if you put it on a fighter he'd randomly wreck another cat on turn 1
>>733438642I started save scumming all events and the game became fun again
>>733438876Bring the cats with the pissing skill or spit/the aoe spit as their starting skill.
>>733440742After act 1 I've started always choosing the ignore/go away option if possible, it feels like events are like 80% negative with draconian shit like taking a cat away or giving you cancer, and the potential positives are like a small heal or +1 in a random stat
>>733437159>>fast forward to bunker>>fight the faggot worm for the first timeBumblefoot is the fucking worstFacerolled him once but the next time I saw him I had a similar result
are quests repeatable
>>733437159>First Core run>Brute I got with Eternal Servitude crushes the boss with his instant kill -999 HP grip.Permanent charming has to be the most broken non combo mechanic in the game. Still, the most hilarious part was carrying around my thief turned kitten in literally the first event in the desert.
>>733440723wouldnt this be great on a cleric
I still haven't bought it. is it really worth it?
how much stimulation is overkill
>beat act 2>beat all three tinas>breeding cats with 5-7 stats across the boardand i just lost alley for the fifth time today. i dont know what is happening. the game went from tough but fair to fucking impossible
Any tips for avoiding placing things randomly? I'm still not sure if stimulation helps kittens before or after birth.
>>733440940He might heal/buff enemies I guess.
>>733440852I find Lenny to be much more annoying since you can easily get a team that can't counter his bullshit if he gets an important cat.

>The mega mutant turn start knockback can missYeah hello is Steven there? Yeah I wanna talk to him...
>>733441009just take the spells that heal your units but damage the enemydoes it use up mana?
>>733441004stimulation helps your odds of them getting the higher of the parent's stats when they're born, it does nothing afterwards
>>733441002Did you reach the fall weatherThe constant wind in Act 1 is fucking annoyingI hope winter turns off the desert heat wave or some shit
>>733439643First of all that's a skill perk. Not a disorder perk.Secondly ASPD is not in the game.Thirdly sociopathy is not conditional. It is however defiant. So saying that all sociopaths are evil is actually a sound strategy because then they will do their best to defy that reasoning.
>>733441070Damn, it would have been so useful to know that
I would put the breeding room in the attic because you can just tell by the animation at the end of the day where the breeding is happening>>733441004https://www.youtube.com/shorts/9pXqOhCtO4w
>>733440905Side quests are yes
>>733439030If you mean boris pretty sure his gimmick is in the description>always moves a step towards the source of an attack>Will dash with his last actionThat behavior means he's easy to lead around or lure into traps. Immobilize is nice if you have it, knockbacks are good as well.
>Redacted>cant see health bars or statuses>princess hat>cant see statuses>beat throbbing king with them lol lmaoyo what the fuck
>>733441074yeah i just reached fall. does the game secretly bump up the difficulty across all acts after a certain point?
>>733441004Talk to Tink, he tells you what this stuff does
I'm close to beating this game, and im still not sure what the amount of clovers you get does after beating a battle. I thought it was your gold and food rewards but it seems like sometimes it doesn't matter.
>>733439487I was having fun on my solo run until I realized bosses still get 4-5 turns per round.
>>733441308I think it's meant to be how likely you are to revieve an item, since it seems luck based
>>733441070And the way you get higher stats on the parents is to take them adventuring, right?
Conflicted.On the one hand +1 damage per cast is great.On the other hand, it's mini-me, and it will also be spook nuking the field.Why the fuck couldn't I have started with resonance and not "Two" (Alongside fucking absorb)I think I have to take Resonance on the basis of progression. If I can get a cheaper spell I'm gold.
Somehow not dead
>>733441537Cute hag (male)
>>733441462Mini-Me if you have any weapons in your inventory. Those things go hard with a rocket launcher.
>>733439386One of butch's first tips is to tell you that you can take less than 4 cats if you want to levelmaxx.Its entirely on purpose
>>733441462Never build a cat with the idea of what you might get or oh if I get this later on I'll be unstoppable. Wombo-combo perks happen thanks to your starting perk and being lucky with the second or third perk.
>>733441462>that eye mutation
I made a terrible decision by bringing every single quest item on my run.Bubble Boy is fuuuun.
>>733441383Only base stats are given through breeding. Mutations too but if you dont know shit about base stats vs modifiers you haven't been giving Tink enough kittens
I think I just need to go on furniture runs, I'm trying to improve the stats that have been lagging behind in my inbred mess but even if I started from scratch the strays coming in are all still shit or gay with 25+ appeal
Listened to Them Kitty Bones few days ago and cried uncontrollably. Remembered my dog. No game made me cry before like this and felt grateful and fresh afterwards.
>>733441237redacted is not so bad if you frequent the area it wants you to finish at. the throbbing king requirement is not nearly as bad as you think because it gives you free reign to pick whichever route you want. given that dybbuk possesses cats indiscriminately and that quest items are so fragile, the choice is clear.also, imagine trying to time the dybbuk kill with invisible fucking healthbars, yeah?
Do higher difficulties/solo runs/all collarless runs count for the percentage progress?
>>733441848Same, when I listened to Flush, a single brown tear ran down my pants
>>733441838You need to git gud at the actual tactical aspect of the game if you think strays at 25+ appeal are shit. You don't need 7s across the board to do well.
necromancer more like negromancer
>about to reach last stages of act 2>most sidequest items done>haven't beat tina 2 yetyup, just toss a stray at her yup nothin' wrong
two of my cats got one speed due to mutations in my guillotinas head run...
>>733441948I cleared the Core no problem but literally every cat that was being born for ages had like 3-4 ranged from this mess
>>733441902They unlock shit so I assume it moves the progress when you unlock shit.

>>733442176dont give steakmund ideas, i know that loser lurks here since he's so weird
What the FUCK is this canceraids?
The toe biting in Boneyard led to meeting Isaac's ghost who gave me Technology
>>733442265The demon isn't that tough even if some candles are leftHe just doesn't have a lot of HP if you have a team that could get that far
Do you still count as clearing a sidequest if you go to an area beyond it and die? I don't know if my team can beat throbbing domain and have a quest for boneyard
>>733442230God, she's perfect
>>733442176I thought she was going to eat my cats like daddy shark does but she didnt.Then I feared that she may become powerful if she ate a corpse but she didntI no diffed her every time. I definitely overprepared
I'm parasite maxing. Cleric in my party has full revive with All Stat ups in case I happen to get ko'd and one other cat is carrying revive consumable too
>>733442265My first core run I had a wind-maxxing Mage with Blizzard, the line wind spell that knocks people back, and the cross-shaped wind spell that got upgraded to infinite range.Boss got all his candles blown out turn 1.
Is there any good porn?
>>733442418This makes me question something, does Tina have an instant kill decapitation attack or anything along those lines? I expected her to do it since that's literally why she's called that but I never saw it.
>>733436740I can’t get over this awful Newgrounds artstyle. I’m sure the game is very fun, but flash games aged more poorly than phone games if you remove the nostalgia goggles of playing that shit in computer class circa 2001. The art gives me the same vibe as that corpo artstyle companies like Google use or the tumblr nose shit.
Turns out Tinkerer is pretty fucking cool if you get just the right build going.DOWN WITH THE DEVILDOWN WITH THE DEVIL
>>733442439>There's no set bonus for this
>>733442352i believe the item you are carrying also has to survive until your cats go home, so you can actually turn it in. don't risk it, sidequests are already aids as they are.
>>733442321>Info card says their movement is 2>CTRL shows the same>but they actually have a leap attack that covers half the map>oh and they split into two mobs when they die, and inflict fear while somehow lighting the moon on fireFucking hate rugpull mini-bosses like this, sure you just have to survive it once and you've got it forever but sometimes it can ruin a run.
I've got 8 hairy legsgonna wrap them around youbest song
WTF? This shit SUCKS
>>733442674rugpulling bullshit like this is the game's greatest flaw in a genre that is supposed to give you all the information you need to be successful.
>Be at crater>One of those annoying cats possesses my tinkerer>Tinkerer has 24 mana and a spell that costs 3 mana>Every time he casts it, he empowers the thorn dudes>Oh fuck>Guy starts spamming the spell, which will also easily kill one of my units>Suddenly stops spamming it halfway through and just decides to do some high mana ability that only buffs him, then he crafts a weapon and passes the turn?????The AI being retarded is why possession/mind control is not that bad and why mini me can suck sometimes.
>>733442751Just keep reviving him and you'll have infinite fly swarms. Very easy to abuse.
>>733442708
>>733442708Worst song of the act. So forgettable. Flush, Chumbud Kitty and Kitty Bones effortlessly clear it.
>every cat posted in these generals is an inbred abomination with 1 or 2 base 7s max>There's maybe 5 posters across every thread who are even trying to breed proper catsThe game is called is called mewgenics. What are you niggers doing?
>>733442674theres a boss in chapter 3 that does a similar thing, warns about everything except that their attack can cause concussions, lost like 4 intelligence on my team because of that fuckeralso as a tip for the future, the leap they do is their action not their movement so if they use it they can't attack the same turn.
Roll 7 times and STILL won't get a fucking good ability
>>733442580This game has too many classes that are worthless unless you get a specific active skill that actually makes them funWhy bother with tinker, mage or necromancer when you are consistently good with tank and butcher?
>>733442849>keep reviving himNo revives. Quest run with toolbox and stone and holy fucking shit I'm so retarded. I put this stone on absolutely worst druid even imaginable instead of butcher
>>733442923I've bred around 6 cats that have the backpack mutation and the eternal skill. Does that count?Fuck the anons that said that that skill sucks, by the way. It's a great offensive skill that lets me zerg rush the motherfuckers without fear of dying. Lets me straight up brute force most encounters.
>>733442751fly swarms doe, not just a single fly
FOUR. NORMAL. NIGGAS. WON.
>>733442923>mewgenicsIt's hard to breed when you need to donate cats to progress and when you have limited amount of rooms and need furniture.
>>733442958Necro is pretty good even if you get some bad shit, Thief can easily be really bad though
>>733442321My strategy for these guys is to keep them distant and separated and hard focusing one of them (freeze, stun, confuse etc.). The injury isn't so bad because the final boss for the area is a gimmick where your stats don't really matter. The hard path ufo fight is harder than than him.If the injury is an issue act 3 zone 2 has a boss almost guarantees you will get at least 1 concussion.
>>733442849Every time I try for a fly or summon build those little retards run straight into a death blender and have basically no impact. I know there are some set bonuses and passives that really buff minions but I never have the luck to make it work.Except once where I had a cat who inherited the Cleric passive that nukes an enemy for 10 when they kill something and had ANOTHER cat become a Cleric and managed to get the same passive. Made the first cat a Ranger and did nothing but spam pooters while we sat back and let the enemies kill themselves.
>>733442923this shit is like cult of the lamb except this game is actually good, I don't care for the management sim stuff, just the roguelite battles.
>>733442580I want to try out mech...
>>733442923Most people dont have enough progress to really control the selective breeding in their house. We instead elect to kill anything thats non-viable and everything else gets thrown into the pit to see who comes back home alive
how the fuck is every single song a bangerthis can't be the ridiculon that made tboi rebirth's ost
>>733442580tormentor is a pretty easy boss all things considereded went easy on us with that one

>>733443071Here's the unlock for beating Throbbing king with all normie cats
>>733442321Prepping you for act 3 lmao
>>733443146>The hard path ufo fight is harder than than him.My druid had Death Metal that kills a random enemy when I did my first moon run, turn 1 he just nuked the giant UFO.The moon generally felt easier to me than the Core, the miniboss is probably worse on the Moon but man the Core has some fucking AWFUL mobs in it.
>>733443252I just found out today that the frogs attack the flies. I love the pandemonium with the summoning.
>>733443286So there’s just one thing I genuinely dislike about the combat system, and that’s elite variants. It’s fucked up that they get 3 turns and you can’t plan worth shit what they’ll do.
>it's a "cavemen and sabertooth cats spawn together on the opposite side of the map and they kill each other while you watch" levelkino
>>733443279>See anons constantly posting "METEOR CRASH">Get to it>It's midYou all made me think I was gonna get another Flush. It's not even as good as Throbbing King or Coven.
>>733443286Oh fuck, WHAT? You get specific unlocks for that? Fucking hell.Does it show up on your menu screen along with the collars and collarless?
>>733443080It really isn't. All my cats are base 7s with 8+ mutations. 2 rooms is enough to get started.One room has two cats that are bred to pass on their 7s. Then they get replaced with their kitty and a new cat with a 7.The other room has all your comfort furniture. You dump every other cat in this room. Strays, kitties with unoptimal stats, whatever. It's enough to get started.Eventually you'll have more rooms and can use better methods.
>>733443002Wait does the cat carrying that stone receive all level ups thus forcing every other cat to stay level 1? Or does it level up simultaneously with other cats?
>>733442230>not full of pussyYou had one job
>>733443372Have you found the shop there to be way more reliable?I got 2 parts of the caveman set (full set spawns a friendly baby mammoth familiar-it has trample so I don't know how to feel about that) and this absolute beauty.
>>733443418>Meteor Crash>MidEvery single track except for maybe the Caves has been great, I don't know what the fuck you're smoking.Them Kitty Bones has been stuck in my head for like 3 days straight now.
>>733443240Keep in mind a number if these tracks were made over 10 years ago when Mewgenics was still a Team Meat project. Isaac Rebirth was made in the same timeframe and it's evident that the tonal restrictions Ed wanted for it just wasnt in their style until they really figured it out with Repentance.DannyB hit the tone of Isaac way better, Ridiculon is good when theyre given freedom to do styles that theyre good at instead of being shoved into an Isaac-shaped box.It is exceptional how the trope of>boss music>lyrics kick inwinds up working so well for regular bosses
>Put my inbred cats in a room with strays to keep the mutations but lose the incest>They mostly ignore the strays
I want to play this game but don't feel like making an 80+ hours commitment
>>733443517:)
>>733443371>A lot of enemies in Act 2 already get 2 turns as baseline>Elite variants can get fucking 3 turns>Oh and it's the crater, so now the entire fucking map is filled with aidsReally considering skipping crater hard path for future runs, that shit was AWFUL.
>>733443561All level ups forcing everyone to stay at level 1, I've taken it out 3 times now without completing the quest because it's fuckin goofy.
>>733443642Then you shouldn’t.
>>733443560NTA but I don't care about stats. I just want cool abilities. I also don't care about mutations unless it's the odd mutations that do something other than altering stats.My cats have 6 on average on their stats so it still works out well enough, but trying to min max that shit is boring.
Behold the perfect rangerHe oneshotted the spider in the cave
>>733442579Anyone convincing themselves that phone games had more soul than flash are gachafags.
>>733441863>given that dybbuk possesses cats indiscriminately and that quest items are so fragile, the choice is clear.>leech quest>want to kill dybbuk with burn damage so a cat doesnt land the killing blow>he possesses the leech cat anyway>to finish the fight, I have to down it>the leech gibs the body instantly >dybbuk comes out onto a patch of fire and dies immediately so I cant savescum>have to do the run from the startFuck this boss, absolute cancer
Satanic achievements
>>733443663Now I'm worried that there's also unlocks for 4 Fighters, 4 Mages, 4 Thiefs, etc.
>>733442261>ClampsYeah I don't care about skills and encounters anyway.
>>733443757I like that he looks like he has natural camouflage.
>>733443785Without a way to actually manipulate blank collar RNG its kind of bullshit.At least with collarless you always have the option to do it every run.
I got lucky with the redacted side quest and it sent me to the caves. People keep trying to downplay Dybbuk as not a big deal, but anyone who tries doing all side quests will know to fear that name. He's undoubtedly gonna end up being THE hated boss no matter how much time passes.
>>733443804thanks, too bad he was a genetic dead end (no 7s) and I flushed himBut he was a cool guy
I really like the idea of Mewgenics but the cats are just so, so uglyIt goes well beyond silly/quirky and into offputting territory
>>733443781>4 difficulty levelsdamn, wonder how hard its gonna be
So, what are all the possible unlocks for bosses?There's one for each class, one for collarless, one for 4 collarless. Anything else? Is there really unlocks for 4 of each class too?I'm only talking Normal difficulty.
>>733443694Wait what? I didn’t notice the enemies in the crater having baseline 2 actions. I’ll have to pay attention next time I’m there. I like going there for the easy boss with the banger soundtrack.
>>733443781There's too much shit.
>Ranger has tower defense>Butcher has auto hook enemies in rangeshit is spraying everywhere
>>733443781If they force you to start from 0 on each difficulty, I'm not bothering.If I can keep my dynasty going, I will probably try these cheevos out over the next few years.
>>733444159Let’s hope so. There’s only 3 saves and 4 difficulties, too.
>>733444030>thought i was done with collarless by just bringing one >there's unlocks for 4 collarless runsok what's the strat, i saw some screenshots of collarless cats getting a passive where they can get collar spells, is that it?
>>733444050>>733443971>>733444159Here's what the games esssentially asking you to do, IDK if this is worse than Isaac's base 100%.Obviously spoilers
>>733444241Or you already inherited two banger skills through breeding.
>>733443961what about here
>tower defense upgrade goes from 1 damage to whatever your basic attack deals + crit chance>dybbbuk's backflip triggers itUh oh.
My Butcher kept getting dumber and dumber as the run proceeded.
>>733444241Challenge runs count. I took 4 normies on a D6 run where all the unlocks were random and it counted.
>Forget to re-sort inventory after completing a run>Half of what I have for the next run is consumables and weaponsThe random bullshit needs to get patched. I get that I lose some stuff but seriously just do basic priority for inventory at the end of a run Pre-Existing shit > Hat/Necklace/Glasses > Trinkets > Weapons > Consumables
>>733442923>What are you niggers doing?mutationmaxxing. As long as my cats have high constitution and speed, I can fix everything else with level ups, the right skills and equipment.
>have to play ping pong with the retarded hands for 3 turns to make boss vulnerable for ONE (1) turn Man fuck this fight holy shit
>>733444241i think there's a quest that professor beanies gives you that, if the quest item is equipped, causes all of your cats to get random skills, including from the collared skill pool, so maybe that's the best way to go about this?
I am going to buy this game
>have tinkerer with reliable way to generate tech>run is going well>get this in an unavoidable event>cat is now uselessthis is so retarded
this game is too easy when you don't have AIDS, they need an event that gives your whole party feline AIDS and they need to make it a guaranteed event
so, is this game fire emblem done right or xcom done right?
>>733444434That’s items morbid with full context
>>733444263Alright, so the only one I'm missing aside from the classes I haven't unlocked yet is 4 normies. That's not too bad.I think I'll try doing those only when I'm near the end of Act 3, though. By that point I'll have bred my uberkatze and them all being collarless won't matter.
>>733436740same as isaac, the art style makes me sad and uncomfortable in a way totally unique to edI like cats, I dont like seeing them suffer so horribly, I know they're just little cartoon blobs but it still bugs me because im a huge faggot, I never felt this way sending 100 rookies to their death in a week of xcomthanks for reading my blog
>>733444159>>733444237You don't start over, you unlock difficulties early in Act 3, after the 2nd area. You get a new pipe guy and when you click on him you can flip routes to hard mode and challenge house bosses again.
>>733444380if you're talking about man on the moon you just need a low cost damage spell or attack. you can keep attacking the hands after they slammed into him on the same turnand they'll do 20 damage each time.
>>733444434Just spam the rocket skill now. He's useless so why care if he gets injured?
>>733444030i think thats all, but there are many more checkmarks than there are unlocksso far the checkmarks seem to be>regular icon for beating the chapter normally with that class>tick for beating the chapter with that class solo>cross for beating the chapter with a party of 4 copies of that class>rumors of a checkmark available for beating that chapter with a class on the highest difficultymaybe there are more marks that are yet undiscovered?
>>733444332Not only that but Dybbuk can't dodge tower defense either. He can't dodge reaction shots. Just him walking will have him get fucked. Tower Defense is a direct counter to that cunt.
>>733443663What's that x?
>>733444601How do the house bosses work? Can you just insta fight them or do you have to wait?
>>733444583
>>733444583He's a redditor.>>733444601Alright, good. I look forward to it, then.
>>733444661The problem is that I need to prevent my ranger from dealing lethal, because he will rape the entire rest of my team.
>>733444583You like the concept of cats more than the disgusting, dumb, little freaks cats actually are.
>>733444807A decapitated dog wrote this post.
>>733442958idk anon to have fun? though I think Fighter and Hunter are so consistently strong (and Tank/Cleric very consistently good utility) that it does somewhat overshadow other classesIt's still very fun to roll some insane combination on mage or tinker
>>733444648Why is Edmund like this? I don't think I'm gonna bother with 100% after all.
>>733444936You don't need to do that for 100%

>>733445064Fedora tipping edgelords existed before reddit too, mate. Not to mention they were born before reddit was a thing.
>>733444807I know this is probably a house cat's dream existence, being top cat in a cat-eat-cat world, shit and maggots and allI still dont like seeing mr mittens get infested with spiders though
>>733444583I didn't flinch at all with Isaac though I guess it's more absurd in a way than just cats with moments like these everywhere or the cutscenes. Maybe we can get a reverse arachnophobia mod that turns them all into spiders.
>>733444972Phew

Finally got to see what Gambit rolling a 6 does. I was honestly half expecting him to just straight up nuke everyone, corpse included, but I needed to see for myself what happened.
im so bad at this, lel
>>733444612Alright yeah that works really wellThanks Anon
>>733444972>Last 1%>Unlock every itemYou sure about that mate?
>>733443781i need to be able to skip to impossible, clear all chaps with all classes, and retroactively unlock the hard and crazy achievements. it needs to work that way to be acceptable.
>>733443418I didn't really like it the first time but after the third time it really grew on me.My favourite is the Act 2 home boss track.
>>733445204honestly these scenes hurt more when i remember i probably stuffed the mother into the pipe to be eaten/beaten/turned to grease/tortured/turned to cat food

Best class to put this on?
>>733445008if a person was locked in a space with no food and your corpse they probably would toowhat's your point?
>>733445395Zodiac has the best introductory cutscene I've seen so far. It's so funny that he's actually dogshit.
>>733445449Cleric or Tank.
>>733445449DPS like fighters I guess, Neverstones don't really matter for the class since the others will be carrying you
>>733445449Tinker if it starts with a tech skill.
>>733445449there's a secret victory condition for beating impossible with 4 of those on uncollared cats
>>733445449Whichever one gets a decent starting roll. Or whichever one gets an atrocious starting roll.Tank probably, or Butcher.
AY LEE IN CRATE URFEE LINEIN VADE UR
What am I in for?
>>733445449its mostly for if you get a stray collarless after losing a guy and don't want that hanger on stealing any level ups from your good guys. i'm not sure why you would use it from the start of a run.
that's it...?
>>733445616Very mixed bag
>>733445616an honestly very competent support class (not for heals but for utility)
>>733445616You move stuff around to do collision damage. It pairs well with classes that attack enemies that move into range or thorn/rock tanks.
>>733445616its a support, don't treat it like a damage class>>733445684___no____
>>733445427Depends on the breed. Only really happens with one or two.
>>733445634I haven't done it myself yet, but being able to level up your 3 cats to insane levels while still having one extra cat does seem pretty decent. I just prefer leveling up everyone cause I want to see as many different skills as possible, though.
>>733445449Other anons have it right, but base druid also ain't bad with itYou can use it on collarless for easier unlocks I guess
>>733445492A dog would starve before eating its owners corpse. Cats are literally incapable of loving you, they are too dumb for that.
Fuck this stupid unga bunga cunt
>>733445616>gave them the fish hook which replaces all push with equivalent raw damage>enhanced basic>they would do 8+ damage with infinite range on their basic attack
>>733445684How many hours of playtime to get to the end?I'm 20 hours in and only just got to act 2. Game is huge. Still salty at how the house upgrade is still really far away though. The first two rooms should have been granted after 10 cats each. It's impossible to breed with less than three.
>>733445616Something that does something very well but you're not really sure what until it's doing it.
>>733445634>i'm not sure why you would use it from the start of a run.If you want to do a 3-cat run, it's objectively better to do a 4-cat run and give the neverstone to one.
what does this icon when you're at home mean
What is one class you never leave home without?
>>733445935It's Appeal, aka quality of stray catsI have no idea how you can not know this after racking up 9 appeal unless you're just not reading the stuff that the game explains to you
>>733445824How does his fight work?Does destroying the throne do anything?If you kill his niggas he stands up, what else makes him stand up?
>>733445962honestly cleric and then most of the time I take tank
>>733445984i do sometimes click through dialogue yeah oopsie
For people looking for ways to actually get Tech on Tinkerer besides the specific skill for it, Catbot+ gives +1 Tech after casting.
>>733445935appeal, it affects how good the strays showing up can be
>>733445962Cleric. Definitely fucking Cleric. People pretend the game is playable without Cleric but that's only with late game classes that can self sustain.Also Cleric isn't just heals. 50% of the time I roll Cleric I can throw at least 3 stacks of divine warrior in my best DPS, which single handedly wins the run.

>>733446000You unlocked Butcher yet?
>>733445935House appeal(from furniture). It affects the stats of strays. I'm at 41 and strays show up with passives/class skills/3 base 7 stats occasionally.
>>733445997Getting him to half HP also makes him stand up
>>733446021Yeah that's nice for the last 2-3 fights of the game.
>>733445684It's like Monster Hunter, the real game begins after the credits
>>733445962Tank, Ranger or Cleric depending on where/the rest of the party. That or just Tank + Cleric if I want to make sure it's guaranteed to win
>>733446010>>733446083>I'm at 41 and strays show up with passives/class skills/3 base 7 stats occasionally.I have 8 appeal and they also usually show up with base 7s.The one thing I'm missing the most from this game's community/wiki is determining how useful stacking each stat is. I'm pretty sure they have either diminishing returns, or the returns are so small by default that it's not even worth investing into it.
Is he in?
what should I do bros?
>>733444672You have to wait 3 days.
>>73344614653 and this is my daily stray.
>doing the fire orb to the moon quest>forget to feed it to moon man
>>733446248so appeal is just pointless? Because I have half your appeal and my strays look the same
Just had my first Throbbing Domain run with the quest and this... thing, that got bloodfrenzy tile 1 of the expedition and I kept having to dance around, eradicated the entire fucking zone including the boss completely on autopilot.
>>733446248Yeah that's pretty much identical to what I get with 11 appeal Holy shit I've been prioritizing appeal for no reason at all
>>733446195he was cut due to being too powerful
>>733446195what would the racist passive do actually
>>733446146>I have 8 appeal and they also usually show up with base 7s.I mean that at 41 appeal, each cat will have 3 stats at 7 and every other stat at least 5. The three 7s only appeared after 40.From my game, stacking appeal is definitely worth it if you actually care about eugenics.
>>733446287Game creates autosave backups every 15 minutes by default.
>>733446347Maybe, I just buy all furniture anyway, oddly the 7s were showing up reliably enough around the 20ish mark, although only ever in one stat, it at least let me breed that stat which was the main thing.Now I just want fresh genetic material because all my kitties are inbred, which ideally means a cat with min 6 in all categories, maybe allowing one 5.I'

>>733446078nopebut looking forward to it
>>733445824I've only fought him twice, but I think the strat is spending rounds shoving the two guards in the corner and buffing your cats while also putting big bleed / poison / leach stacks on the boss. Then awaken the boss by bringing him to half health. Make sure he's got some confusion or blind stacks when he wakes up. I only had one concussion with this method.Maybe you can also stunlock him and prevent him from waking up entirely?

new spoiler schizo theory - The Mother (boss from the end) is our character, aka Isaac's mom but in the futureboss looks identical to 'the beast' from tboi, and I bet is that Beanies 'fucked' up and accidentally made us immortal, plus the theory that Isaac's mom has cancer would explain the appearance and the boss 'taking what is hers back' just means that she wants her cats from the past back

>>733447249NTA but i didn't unlock him until i came to this general and learned he existed. Went in with a single cat and killed it. I've done act 3 without a real wipe.The power of actually utilizing the game's eugenics.
>>733447469Still refuse to believe anyone is getting to act 3 without wiping AND without savescumming. That's bullshit, if anything it doesn't take long for your entire party to get fucked by random events.
about to fight not-godzilla for the first timeany tips?
>>733447310The stray nerd best be fearful of the inbred gigachad jocks
>>733447530brush your teeth
I'm starting to think you guys lied to me about Psychic, two runs and it's been rock-solid.But I also liked that one team with the pushing-pulling mechanics in Into the Breach.
I think my cats may be inbred
>>733447519If you have good eugenics stats, events are almost always positive.If you choose not to breed cats that are all base 7, you are needlessly making the game more difficult. I win every fight in 2 rounds or less
>>733447450It do be like that more than it should
>>733446072How is pointing out the realities of pet ownership in a thread about a game about pet ownership shitposting?

>>733447530She starts the perimeter of the map on the fire and pushes everyone into it with an all-tile roar spell. That's her most dangerous attack.
>>733447249I never wiped and am on act 3.I did savescum once when I forgot that the leech parasited kitty gets blown up on death not downed and it was a pertinent fact against Dybbuk. I didn't even know what the penalty for losing the leech was and if I'd have to fight Tina again or something, so Steven can go fcuk himself.I'm having a LOT more downed allies in act 3 though. It's only a matter of time.
>>733446758The first time I fought him I managed to kill him before he even stood up, so it is possible.
Man why doesn't this passive work. It hasn't summoned a single fucking thing yet. And it definitely doesn't summon anything with blood rain
>>733447530bring dispel and water
>>733444665WHAT'S THAT XWHAT'S THAT XCOMIN FROM
>>733447886Are you taking damage or losing health? Cause those are not the same thing.
>>733447886Oh and corpse connoisseur has never once fucking worked for me. Across multiple runs. What's up with that ?? Why is Necro so broken
>>733447450FUCK DYBBUK
Can YOU guess what happened here?
>>733447972I assume a chain reaction of corpse explosions utterly violating your party from the outside in and out again.
>>733447972That passive is such a disappointment .On paper it looked great, and I also had the passive that guarantees crits in frontal attacks + the neutral active that increases crit damage by 100%.The problem is that 90% of the enemy spawns in this game happen in a X pattern, so you can never explode them in an effective way. It's also not worth waiting several rounds until they line up right because by then the fight is over.
>>733447972KWAB
>>733447972There's nothing left, he's just a pool of tears. Alone in the dark (in the bunker, down in the bunker).
>>733447940Getting hit by an enemy, taking 1 damage from Blood Rain, losing hp from DOT all of it, and none of it fucking works.
>>733447519im halfway through act 2 and haven't wiped or savescummed once (unless you want to count me sending a shitty cat to die solo to unlock the corpse guy)
>>733446248It becomes more about just decorating your house than actually caring about the appeal once you have tons of furniture
I accidentally threw my burning orb to mini-meIs it gone forever if I finish the fight, or should I quit out
>>733448078Yeah it's another reason Mage is dogshit.So many of the mage spells are low damage in an X for big mana costs and the amount of times you can hit more than 2 enemies is trivial.Meanwhile psychic gets fuckhueg AoE and global range.Mage just wants a blast or missiles, all the elemental garbage can fuck off.
>>733448042Winrar!I have two worm lords, plus zombie kitten summons, plus leech summons from corpses.I think everyone but that fighter got hit for over 80 damage.
You can get Dybukk to posses catbotsMaybe anything that's a cat counts
>>733447972I have yet to see that passive actually kill an enemy
>>733448078There's a ton of ways to manipulate enemy position, though. It seems like a non-issue if you bring a tank or psychic with it
>>733448203Mage has dogshit design, it not only relies on enemy patterns that will take several turns to happen, but it's also bullshit like "here's some fire damage! in 5 rounds this will be hurting a lot!" or "here's poison damage!"It makes zero sense for a game where most fights need to end in less than 2 rounds if you want to win.
I just had my cleric sacrifice itself for the collarless cat so that I can unlock shit. You can see my gears grinding as I panic in the webm.Rest in peace, Whiskers, you were such a good cat. Til a tormentor bit off your head.
>>733448308them bones them bones them robo bones
>>733448332Yes but the effort of constantly positioning enemies just right, and then finding a way to deal excess damage to a single target, all that to capitalize on explosions, is hardly worth it. You would be getting more benefit from other passives with way less setup.
>>733447972>>733448319bro your peace facepaint?
I got your Neverstone holder right here.
>>733448347Mage is awkward and has a few too many Spells that starting with feels bad (Absorb, while nice, is so damn boring if it's your first).But just like every other class, there's strong stuff if you luck into the right combos.All the turn stacking bullshit goes to the moon if you get extra turns (for example, Collarless passive that gives +1 turn if you do nothing).The actual problem with the specific one you mentioned (fire nova or whatever it is called) is the fact that it keeps growing indefinitely, so if you turn stack too hard, suddenly you have to start manipulating it to NOT hit your team. And it still isn't that impressive compared to real combos that just.. do damage.
Also, I realize now in hindsight that I could have saved both with this strategy but fuck you, I was panicking that I was gonna have to bring a collarless cat all the way again and I also didn't know for sure Feast insta-killed.And I guess insta nuke moves like feast don't trigger "When your corpse gets destroyed" effects. Good to know.
>>733448308That honestly just gives me more questions and how I can exploit it. If Catbots count as cats, are there better skills that target cats instead of just allies.One of those weird things like how you can cast Soul Link on trashbags cause they have a healthbar and the Necromancer miniboss will attempt to reanimate cacti you break in the desert.
>>733448203>>733448347Completely disagree. Mages go one of two ways: you either build them for utility stuns, or you give them free spells with the number passives to stack debuffs. My last mage could cast 5 upgraded fireballs on turn 2 by the last boss and completely melted Tina 2.There's also the passive that gives them +2 magic damage whenever any other ally spends mana, which can easily turn the mage's basic attack into a 26+ hit all by itself.
>Jimmy is laughing for almost two minutes KINO
>>733448429holy fuck, well playeddidja win?
do you need a healer every run?
>>733448720Yes, thank god. I have everything unlocked now for the devil except for classes I haven't gotten yet and the 4 normies.
>>733448429based
>>733448781Mostly only in the desert, and Necro with the lifesteal spell can be enough.
>>733448429Nice
TAKUSANTAKUSANMAEBAARU NE
>>733448781I always need a healer, yes.Most people say they don't. I don't believe them. And they're usually healing anyways, but with other more complicated methods.
Tasty legs and crispy thighs...
>>733448684This nigga has amassed a new mutation near every day of his life solely for the purpose of being the butchest butcher he can be.Annoying you can't skip all the X was born/X had a fight/X died and other unimportant shit to see the evolveds without skipping them too. Everything else that happens is evident.
>>733445449druid easily
>>733448781I take ranger,cleric+butcher or tank to every run
>>733448781No, you get 25% HP recovery every fight, food drops are relatively common, armor exists and can be redistributed if needed and by not having a healer you will be doing more damage and therefore won't need a healer. Even then, if a unit gets downed it's rarely a massive deal because you can still win the fight and you're losing one of ~50 stat points you'll have by then.
do the starting runs get harder each time you do it?i've never seen this many tomtoms in the alley
>>733447683On event in Alley I got parasite that gave 33% chance for parasites after each battle. They were added into inventory and I could choose if i wanted my cats to equip them
>>733448684>>733449054I don't know why I (You)d you there, sorry.
>>733448781I never use them. Fighter, hunter, monk + whatever copy i can take. Healing is a crutch for people who can't win in one round.
>>733449247It sure feels like it but I think it's just luck
>>733448781You dont necessarily need a cleric but you do need to have a source of heals/shield to sustain damage you will be taking. Constitution post-battle heal can do a lot but desert is a bitch about this so you need an answer in the form of wetness or traditional healing.Having cleanse+ and a source of self-debuff is busted as all hell. I had a fighter with constant INT drain on himself and he never took damage
>>733449247many rooms feel melee-favored (generally they have higher damage and their limitation is access to adjacency) so it's fine to have the occasional room that is clearly range favored. unfort you only have the mage for that though
>>733448429Well played but sadly, you've could've saved both of them if you managed to kill him in the next turn. Your Collarless Cat could've licked your Cleric and then holy dashed to the left. It would've landed in a lava tile but it would've been out of the suck range. It would've been downed to fire but it would be okay if the body wasn't attacked. The you use the ranged heal with your Cleric on the Fighter and dash it out of there. Understandably you it's reasonable you couldn't puzzle it out in the heat of battle but it's interesting looking at the footage and reminding myself why I always take movement skills.
>>733441002>and i just lost alley for the fifth time today. i dont know what is happening. the game went from tough but fair to fucking impossibleI dunno what happened either but the game has gotten from easy to much harder lol, I could complete act 1 effortlessly now I sweat
>>733448781In my experience, you're better off without a cleric in 3 cat runs where you can snowball pretty early on and kill everything in 1-2 turns.I dunno, maybe it's just survivorship bias talking.
>>733449480>>733441002when you go to the next act, things get harderlike the rats that spit the purple gunk start spawning in the alley, not just the junkyard
MY TURN
Is this a wholesome, cute game that children can enjoy?
>>733449663I'm not looking forward to how act 1 is gonna be once I reach act 3
>>733449247Yeah, I can't imagine giving this layout to a fresh player who might not have even brought good aoe options.
>>733443240I hate it because the stupid poo song was in my head when I'm at work and it makes me feel like shit.
>>733449751Its a song about being a wagie, now you understand this shitty feeling.
>doing a hot orb run>first random event my cleric gets feline AIDSKEK! Good one, Steakmund.
>>733443418Awful fucking taste
>>733449751YOU GOTTA WORK 9 TO 5 AND 5 TO 9 AGAIN
>>733449458The collarless cat couldn't dash out because the cleric was at full health so I couldn't heal him. I actually tried that.However, you're right that I could have saved them both. In looking at the footage, I realize I could have simply had him be to the left of the cleric rather than where I positioned him. It's the same strategy but he holy dashes first and moves out of danger after. I was panicking, though.Also, I'm not sure if corpses melt in lava or something. Edmund could have fucked with me like that.
>>733448078I haven't tried it yet because it sounded underwhelming, but that one fighter gravity skill exactly solves this problem I think
what is base crit rate at 5 luck ? and ho wmuch more crit is each point of luckidk if taking crit rate proc effects on thief is worth without something else increasing crit rate
Got Princess Hat and Nuclear Knife done in the same runButcher got a couple broken legs in the junkyard so he's been slow as shit for a lot of this run, finally got an okay setup for him in the end but getting in range for the spin attack was a pain in the assPriest had Thou Shalt Not Kill so even though she couldn't act she could still contribute in fights a bit. I recommend getting some way to free the princess from ensnarement or else the king will just constantly shoot her and she's not allowed to get out.Also keep a Neverstone on the princess so the other cats can get roided and its like a 3.5 cat run.
>>733449751you're just another number and number two is your name...
>>733449964Welcome to playing a game from this faggot developer before the community figured shit out and created a wiki and mods that explain this shitPeople are not even sure how dodge stacks let alone luck
>>733449247yes 100%, you eventually start seeing elites in normal mode so the game is def making shit harder in the background as you go
>>733448781If you have a flower bag you can get away with no healer in Act 1, maybe Act 2 except the Core.
>>733449868WOWWWWW MY FUCKING CLERIC JUST TRANSMITTED FELINE AIDS TO MY FIGHTER FROM FURY HEALING HIM??? What a retarded faggot this fat millennial Steakmund is. Seriously, he should kill himself for this time wasting design bullshit. You're telling me my party of 4 perfectly mutated cats with high tier items is going to fucking lose because of this?
>>733448078>gets mind controlled>hits allied cat, fucking exploding it instantlyYeah. I ain't never taking that shit again.Speaking of which, FUCK your dudes getting charmed as a mechanic, in general. I fucking hated it in XCOM and I fucking hate it here. DON'T TOUCH MY FUCKING DUDES.
>>733448781Every single time I bring in a cleric they feel like dead weight who do nothing unless they roll support/damaging passives.Killing enemies and moving out of enemy range>>>>>trying to tank shit
>>733449247>>733449353The game absolutely keeps ramping up in difficulty even in Act 1
I feel like Cleric is kinda useless outside of cleanse eventually because killing the elite fly swarm turn 1 is always going to be better than having your fighter instatake 40 damage
>dragon mutation lets you take a extra turn
Dump (make poop skill) is surprisingly good utility spell for only 3 mana because most enemies don't destroy neutral terrain, or waste time doing itLike in this map:>>733449247Dumping 2 poops makes Tomtoms unable to leave their starting point making the encounter free for only 6 manaIt also trivializes Zodiac because he will waste ammo on newly spawned poop
>>733450124Your healer shouldn't have been such a slut.
>didn't know to keep retirements, only have three retards>tina coming to fuck me>wipe out for the first time and second time so fail to get better cats>only have three retirements and one has confusion for the first two turns>mage with confusion, fighter, healer>fighter is the only one with any real dps and has some health>It is another wipe and I am left with no trinkets or catsI thought I was fucking invincible as I didn't lose once before tina appeared
>>733450327just send a stray in and let the counter reset
I always took the chest and not the box in the junkyardI’ve wasted so much time
>>733450327Now is the part where some scrub goes "lol you could have just fed Tina a single cat to no consequences!"You may have failed but you're still manlier than those pussies.
>>733450390Fuck, I was too late. The scrub was here right on time.
>>733450327Send 1 sacrificial cat if you arent ready for raid bosses.
>>733450327The ! scenes tell you that you can send your retired cats.You get seven days to go back out before tina shows up.Stop skipping dialogue and stop watching tiktok.
>>733450327My first loss was the act 2 house bosswasn't even hard I just set up my team like a complete fucking idiot, 2 damage dealers with basically no HP, a leech summoning necromancer, and a tank that was completely useless, and actively disrupted my other characters (he had depression)
>>733449912>The collarless cat couldn't dash out because the cleric was at full health so I couldn't heal him. I actually tried that.Tip for next time, it seems counter intuitive but you could've hit your Cleric with your Collarless Cat's attack and then heal the damage. Wouldn't work if they have armor or a holy mantle but otherwise it is an option. I've also done healing dashes where I heal the enemy just to reposition myself since they're at full health. >Also, I'm not sure if corpses melt in lava or something. Edmund could have fucked with me like that.Had the exact kind of thing happen to me. I had a cat die in creep and I read the tooltip "takes damage entering and at the start of your turn" and I had a moment seriously considering whether bodies get "turns" or not.
>>733450502>Tip for next time, it seems counter intuitive but you could've hit your Cleric with your Collarless Cat's attack and then heal the damageOh yeah, duh, of course. So there were two ways I could have saved both cats.Well, either ways the third best option was still good enough. I got the unlocks. Was stressful but kino.
>>733438402someone should redraw pic related with a cat spraying pyrophina
>tfw ur cats are all shit, your food is low, and you have no money, but your too prideful to do a act 1 run
i fucked up too much, i'm deleting my save and starting again
>>733450651Why not Act 1 is good for getting skills on some shitters before breeding
>10 days after launch>I have 45 hours played>just beat Jurassic>also have done considerable amount of side quests, unlocked the third room of my house, am almost done with the quest to unlock the riftYet somehow Steam says only 0.5% of players have beaten Jurassic? How's that possible? If you put like 5 or so hours a day in since launch (which I'm guessing a massive amount of people are) how have so few people made progress? I promise I'm not rushing anything
>>733450590Oh absolutely. I love just experimenting with this system, win or lose. It's how I played Isaac.Had a run in the Caves against the enemies that disguise themselves as Rocks and I was wondering if I could Goad the rock I knew was an enemy with my Tank. Goaded it and the rock rotated and slid straight in front of my Tank. Actually laughed out loud.
>>733450651Pride is a deadly sin, anon.Either buy food from PMart like an idiot or go pick up your free max food and 99 coins in act 1. There are still things to do there.
Starting to get somewhere on fixing my cats stats finallyAnd the faggot cat I got earlier with great stats can will be willing to fuck this before it kills him, hopefully
>>733450776There's a lot of shitty players. You can just browse these threads to see. There are people actually struggling with act 1.>Uhhh but iths the buffed version of act 1!!!Pathetic.
>>733450797kek>>733450651You should be doing Act 1 runs anyways to get the class unlocks, Throbbing Domain and do sidequests.
>>733450776I haven't touched act 3 and i'm 80 hours in. I'm just not in any rush. I like doing my breeding autism and doing the sidequests.
>>733450776I'm at 73 hours and my next task is to get the King's Heart from the Throbbing Domain but I haven't killed him once yet.Didn't prioritize the side quests when they popped up and my runs tend to take like 3 hours cause I think through my turns and don't have any speedup options.I don't really mind taking my time, I know I'm going to be way over 100 hours but I feel like I've made enough progress that I won't run into what I consider spoilers. I know all the area names but I don't know their enemies, bosses or soundtracks.
>>733450327>Tina is coming in 7 days>go on a run trying to get some decent cats>idle for 7 days>beat herHow do people even struggle?
I'm 70 hours in and just unlocked the moon.With that said, I'll admit I'm not the best player at Mewgenics. I'm actually keeping track of my party wipes and early escapes. I'm at 13 Party Wipes and 5 Escapes so far.I beat every boss except for the spider on my first try, though, so I can at least be proud of that.
>>733448781Early on, yes. The RNG is too steep to not take one.Once you've got a good house full of nice furnishings and most/all the classes, then you can start actually doing runs without Clerics.Cleric's primary job is RNG mitigation. More consistently good spells with plenty of little mechanics that can break the core rules and turn them into a behemoth too.
>>733451156honestly pyrophina was the only difficult one so far and I'm in act 3

Why do all these websites put Druid as a c-tier class? This shit is insanely useful and fun
What did Edmund McVillain mean by this?
>>733452006probably the same thing he meant during the entirety of act 3 chapter 2-2
>>733451941Frankly I'm not going to believe any Tier lists until it has been like 2 months since launch and even then I'm still pretty sure I'd disagree with them."Game Journalist" plays two Druid runs where it doesn't pop off immediately and it goes in the C-tier.
>>733451941Probably because the archetypes don't help each other very much, so you need to pick one and hope you get skills/passives for it, so it's not very consistent
>>733451941cause druid is the lowest Con class and its very easy to get killedand judging by the past mewgenics threads and how common people play this game, they have no idea you can right click enemies to see their range of movement and attack.They literally just walked forward and prayed for the best without trying to plan around the enemies.
>>733451941They dont understand the bird gets all basic attack modifiers the druid has.
>add a lot of funny build variety and niche combos for fun>then add a mechanic that punishes non-DPS builds by exhaustion if you don't win inside 10 turnsthis is horrid game design, but if the devs want me to just take fighters and rangers like a normie then so be it
is there a point to ever using classless cats
>>733452158you get skills for it that you can get with any cat
>>733452065What the fuck is going on here?Now I'm thinking you chose the good item to stockpile for a future run, I swear this game just keeps getting more complex.
>>733452152if you aren't winning in 10 turns your build isn't nicheyour build is just straight up fucking dogshit and you are just stallingyou dumb fucking retard
>>733452158they have strong unlocksThe boneyard and Throbbing King ones are specially good
>>733452006He meant you use it on the man on the moon and win.
>>733452134I watched a few minute of that guy moistcritical play and you are not far off. Literally just moving his cats forward randomly and using abilities with no thought behind it. These are the people you see raging about Dybbuk on the internet and getting stuck in the caves
>>733452152>wahhhh I wanna spend 20 rounds plinking down my entire team with skill share zenkai boost
>>733452262try getting out the Alley first anon, the post Moon+Core fight is 2000HP and Throbbing King runs away every time you hit it. high DPS starts to become mandatory and undermines the design of many of the classes
>>733450157>>733449247So, what, if I have a streak of bad luck or misplays, it's better to terminate and start a new profile than trying to bounce back?
>>733452116Really just getting a helpful animal form on its own can make up for a jank buildI had elk form absolutely save a run holy shit that's busted
>>733452262It's the dev that added damage over time abilities, they kinda need time to damage?
>team so low damage that I almost lost to hitler without his cloneshis tiny little chip damage nearly took me out
>>733452432are they worth it? it always seemed like a bad idea to remove the druid basic attack
>>733452329It's pretty impressive that he managed to sell an autistic SRPG to retards like that(not just talking streamers, those obviously play anything popular).
>>733452134>they have no idea you can right click enemies to see their range of movement and attack...Holy fuck.I was calculating their movement manually according to their move stat.And I was quite annoyed I couldn't see their attack range.I was also annoyed that right click did fucking nothing (I never used it on an enemy, I did it on my units cause I wanted to double-check their equips/passives when not their turn).Fucking hell.
>>733452158They have some inexplicably broken bullshit honestly especially if you can get unrestricted and/or mini me
>>733452492Elk gets a throw that does bruise to both targets and massive speed, and a cheap movement refresh.The upgraded Elk form attack gets damage.You can stack the forms too, just the last basic attack replace stays but you get all the stat changes combined and the spells.
>>733452662Thanks for making me feel smart

>Mewgenics is the first Tactics game for a lot of people on the internet so they have no idea about stuff that exists in every tactics gamethats just fucking sad
It’s crazy how OP the tangle ability for Druid is. I didn’t let a single mini boss or boss in my run to Jurassic attack me because they were always pinned down by vines
>>733452065how the fuck do you get items offered as level up options?

so what are the best classes in the game for a new run or player?
>>733453491fighter tank cleric hunter
>>7334534914x collarless
How do I get a good source for heals just starting out?
I just wish voices weren't inherited, need more vocal variety
>>733453608Cleric. Also here's usually HP pickups on the maps themselves. Some of the classes have healing spells (Hunter has Soothing Shot and Slop The Pigs for example, and Fighter has a passive that lets them heal off of kills) but it's RNG at that point
I am convinced anyone who says this game is too hard don't stop to actually read what an enemy does.
>>733451482kek
>>733453608Cleric.Just bring a Cleric. Unless RNG decides to really fuck you, you'll get a healing ability by 2nd level up and everything will smooth out.Prior to that, bring a few random consumables you might have to keep ya topped up.Focus down enemies 1 at a time if possible. Better to take 3 hits from full/half HP enemies than to take 4 or 5 hits from all the enemies at half HP.
>>733453491The game starts you off with all the simple, easy to understand classes.As you get further in the game you'll unlock the more complex ones.But every class can develop to varying degrees of complexity and power depending on what you roll. The amount of run-to-run variety is shockingly high (keep in mind that every class has like 20 passives of which you will at most get 2, and 50 skills, of which you will at most get 4 - and all of these have upgraded variants with greater effects)
>>733453261Round: 1I need to come to core more I forgot the music is incredible.
>>733453609Throw a few strays in the other breeding room with 'em.
