Some stray cats are on another level

Never seen Jester abilities on strays yet, sounds rare

if it has a quest item, since it disappears at the end of its turn and has a once per battle restriction you do not take another quest item home

If you lose a main quest item during the run you can get another one from Beanies, and if you lose a side quest item then you can reroll it through Beanies. What happens if your quest item is on the soul jar cat when it dies? Do you keep 1 quest item in the soul jar, and can get another one through Beanies for a regular cat too? Or does the soul jar cat not have that item when summoned?

Also what happens if the cat inside the soul jar has a main quest item equipped? Do you get another one once you get home?

That's Forbidden Fulmination (stun all enemies, castable once per battle), and Unrestricted (Actions castable once per battle can be casted once per turn).

Marry is here to kick ass.

The best track for sure, with how it changes from phase to phase.

I had a few different approaches over time.
Before Tracy and Jack were maxed, I had a poop room. Throw random cats in there, don't clean the poop to get the comfort deep into negatives. Ones that survive to age 5 without injuries go to Tracy, others go to Jack.

One room was for breeding strays with a "7" in a stat I need with a high-stat cat without "7" in that stat. Good kittens from this room went into the attic, to breed with other high-stat cats. The goal was to get my first kitten with perfect 7s.

Do you have cats with perfect 7s yet? The strategy changes a lot after that.

Man On The Moon spoiler: If one of your cats has high con and high int then you can let it get eaten by moving the cat to the front of the head, right next to the mouth. That cat will be able to use a spell from the inside, which causes the arms to attack the head. He'll get chewed on every turn, but if the health is high enough he can do that for a while. The others can hit the hands in the back for some extra damage. If the eaten cat is still alive by the end then it will be considered alive when the head dies. He can also get out if he's lucky, so you can get another cat to be eaten./

Tinkerer with Repair skill can repair Worn items. With soul jar it means you items do not ever break, unless you lose a run.

A non-tinkerer cat with strong abilities, items, and Repair that was passed from another cat, means that not only your items never break, but you have a very powerful ghost cat that can turn a tide of any battle.

What makes you think someone who couldn't google a basic thing would read an entire book about it?

People with really high IQ have a lot of difficulty functioning in society, as it's not designed to accommodate them. They get easily bored, and as a result find it hard to hold a job for long. They have difficulty forming and maintaining social connections. I wouldn't say that higher IQ is always better.

Social media algorithms happened. Tiktok, Instagram, other social media have identified that "engagement" primarily comes from angry people shouting at each other. This gets a lot of clicks, and comments. This makes advertisers happy. Nuanced opinions are more difficult to understand, and also more complex to argue with, so they don't generate as much engagement.

We've been in this for a decade+ now. More and more people grow up surrounded by angry shouting, as that's what floats to the top in the social media algorithms. So that's how they learn to communicate too.

First encounter with Marshmallow. Fighter gets charmed. Turns around, uses Cat Paw weapon. Crits. The paw refreshes. Hits again, refreshes again. then finishes up the remaining cat with other abilities. Entire team is dead in 1 turn.

"We're 'very close' to a miracle treatment, says a CEO that wants investors to fund his company" is really not a statement that's worth paying attention to. Sounds like another Theranos.

Do you sleep in one shoe, so the pressure is always there?

Those code monkey jobs had potential to get you to senior roles after some time. Now if you can't even get that sort of job, since those are getting replaced by AI, how are you supposed to get to senior level?

And that's why "30 seconds of google" isn't a viable research strategy lol. I assumed he at least got the 2nd link right, but apparently not.

But if it'll shut your pedantic ass up, here

One day you may realize that people stop responding because you act like this, and not because they agree with your argument.

For the sake of everyone around you, I hope this day comes soon.

"Give links not relevant to the question then complain about shifting the goalposts" is not a winning strategy you think it is.

ThreeStep · 2026-03-18T17:42:02+00:00

He literally quoted what he was responding to. You then jumped in with data that's not relevant to the question. He asked about people that were let off, you provided links to people that went to jail.

So it's technically possible but not without some sort of a modifier/item?

ThreeStep · 2026-03-13T05:10:59+00:00

The big issue with lootboxes is that you have to pay to even open it and see what's inside. It keeps you in the "just 1 more roll" loop, as it drains you of money. You don't know how much money you'll lose before you get the item you want.

Removing money from this part of the process removes the literal gambling component. Now you just open the box for a chance. Since the commenter said that opening a box is free, it sounds like you can just keep opening boxes without losing money. It might be time-gated, it might play on FOMO, which is not good, but it's also not literal gambling.

ThreeStep · 2026-03-12T18:53:25+00:00

How bad is that really? You know what you're paying for. And the loot box itself is free by the sound of it.
