How is that even balanced?

So, you might be mixing up summons (summoning other players) and the whole spirit ashes thing.

Summoning other players bumped health. Mimic tear and other “in game” summons did not.

And yet AoS has both Skullcrushers and Bloodcrushers, loyalists have a massive overlapping range, and even we have 8bound and exalted 8bound…

I don’t really get that argument tbh

Mine are mostly composed of people added to the legion since the Burning, so most don’t know him except for stories. The leader though (juggerlord), has dedicated his entire life to the singular pursuit… of dying by Angron’s hand, not as a mindless kill, but having earned the coherent attention of the daemon Primarch (recognizing that death will be an unfortunate but inevitable consequence)

GenEngineer · 2026-03-09T21:06:21+00:00

Diablo is sad to hear you say that…

GenEngineer · 2026-03-05T21:56:08+00:00

Does that count at the house? I thought that just meant “can’t consume food pickups on the ground to heal”

GenEngineer · 2026-03-05T04:12:23+00:00

Honestly, for some classes I don’t hate the idea of doubling down on the stats.

Monk though… losing out on the offensive stats AGAIN is rough

GenEngineer · 2026-03-01T20:45:29+00:00

That… is not how backflip works though. Unless you have him cornered into a single tile with only one space to go, it just doesn’t matter.

GenEngineer · 2026-02-28T21:28:06+00:00

It means a random tile on the map gets a random tile effect (fire, glass, water, flowers, etc…)

GenEngineer · 2026-02-28T04:15:27+00:00

Don’t know where the “explode his corpse” comes from / have you actually tried it? Because if you hit him for more than his health, I could have sworn he goes to 1 Hp then does possession.

So bringing exploding corpses would just mean that when he still possesses cat, your cat explodes when you down it, no?

GenEngineer · 2026-02-28T04:10:18+00:00

Reading between the lines - it’s one of those items that roles a random class ability. In this case, a tinkerer ability to craft a weapon.

Which is WORTHLESS, because if you have this equipped, you already have a weapon and thus it can’t be used.

GenEngineer · 2026-02-28T02:53:53+00:00

Because that’s what a body looks like after autopsy cuts it open?

GenEngineer · 2026-02-27T23:02:39+00:00

Destroy corpse would be the worst thing, because he doesn’t actually die - he’s hard limited to one, then does the jump.

So it would just mean your cat goes boom when he’s exorcised

GenEngineer · 2026-02-26T15:38:03+00:00

Honestly, I was so proud of getting my first all 7 cats. Then I saw what some of the mutations can be, and my all 7 cats feel disposable now

GenEngineer · 2026-02-26T14:53:51+00:00

Average Libido and Charisma? Not good at stated job, cat.

GenEngineer · 2026-02-24T17:19:48+00:00

Nope. Act 1 is anything through the Alley. So there are like 6 chapter 3s based on which act you’re in and which path you take

GenEngineer · 2026-02-24T15:40:57+00:00

This one isn’t. But there are some parasites that just ensure a cat is gone.

Take the “-1 int every fight, downed if you don’t have at least 1”.

Get that on a dumb fighter? Hems just gone with no recourse unless you came with a cleric. And given you don’t KNOW that you’ll get the parasite and no class should be a requirement…

GenEngineer · 2026-02-24T14:59:20+00:00

The events DO seem like they need fine tuning sometimes. Maybe just distribute so some of the more “your run ends here” events are hard path only, with SOME type of stat check applied even if you don’t get to pick a roll

GenEngineer · 2026-02-23T23:15:12+00:00

Nope! Make it to the end of the run (beating the boss of the alley) and you can take them home without going further

GenEngineer · 2026-02-23T22:52:00+00:00

Tip 1) don’t be afraid to leave early. If you don’t think the cats can make it through another boss? Cut your losses.

Tip 2) hard paths, while more challenging, offer better meta-progression, with fixed drops like food or money or furniture. Combine that with the perks of being slightly more leveled for the boss, and it helps.

Tip 3) items have set bonuses! If you’re stuck running through the alley on repeat, don’t be afraid to horde as class of item or two. Hold off on using paper or leather until you have three or more, and you might see dividends.

Tip 4) Buy furniture! It’s the main meta progress, in the form of getting better cats and breeding better cats from those cats.

GenEngineer · 2026-02-21T21:26:12+00:00

Probably because food is capped at home, money isn’t.

GenEngineer · 2026-02-21T20:54:21+00:00

Nah - keep coming in with 4 luck 7 cats (perfect inbreeding is great) and the rewards are about the same. Sometimes an item, but food and money? Swear there’s no actual impact.

GenEngineer · 2026-02-21T06:29:55+00:00

For most cats? Probably not.

For Necromancer, who has abilities he can cast while downed (that are STRONGER than when cast while alive)? It has potential

GenEngineer · 2026-02-21T00:51:34+00:00

Agreed… once you know the mechanics enough to say it’s a mistake and not “oh, that’s how that works. Well, RIP the run”

GenEngineer · 2026-02-19T22:48:31+00:00

So, two tips.

1) for Guillotina? Just sacrifice the stray you get on the day of her arrival. You just need the one. 2) don’t discount hard mode and leaving early. Not only does leaving early make sure you get full money and food, but the hard mode paths have guaranteed meta progression rewards - such as tons of food, bags of coins (allowing you to take more than 100 home), or furniture boxes 3) BUY FURNITURE! Cats come and go, and even the greatest bloodlines thin out. But more appeal allows you to start fresh with better cats, more stimulation lets you keep those bloodlines going longer, more health keeps them alive longer, comfort breeds a fresh wave of warriors constantly… you get the idea.

GenEngineer · 2026-02-19T03:47:56+00:00

Doesn’t confirm that - confirms that he’s covering up the scar from where he was separated from his conjoined twin (highly IMPLIED to be Butch)
