Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

Completely agree Warplay, even in my health circle, this could stand to be the difference between whether players win or lose against me while I am away.

I hope that in some point in the future these become a bit less exclusive and more time-limited advance access.

Thanks Warplay.

On the Beast Tamer splash screen it says Hunt 3X is 50 Ribbons

Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

It's a tough one Tige. As an attacking titan all my lts are dmg buffs so to squeaze in a sidekick with an attack stat buff is too tempting to turn down. It opens up opportunities to get wins on defenders that perhaps id lose to without the buff.

Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

I don't like these events.

To get the exclusive sidekick, you are forced to spend upon what is essentially loot crates without odds posted of what your chances are. (Both the 3 at 15FP and the 3 at 70FP.)

Usually for me, no odds posted equals no sale.

It's not a reach to have it calculate that based upon whatever hunting upgrades that you have.

I don't like encouraging these types of events at all but unfortunately I want this Cat.

I usually vote with my wallet on these but I'm going through a period of self-loathing of breaking my own code of conduct just for a cat that there is no guarantees that we will ever seen again.

Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

Doesn't the "70 fp" hunts also give you additional 100 bell collars (although not listed)? Which means you can get both the cat and Ficus in some circumstances

Correct. This is why it's been purchased by those who see it as a viable option.

Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

I think StinkPalm made some valid points in regards to the fp purchases having come back to clarify his point.

From personal experience ive found I can mostly grind these sidekick events with the additional fp top up for normal hunts. I think I needed one 70fp purchase due to a day of inactivity.

Those wanting more than one copy of the event sidekick the 70fp purchase allows an opportunity to immediately gain extra copies.

The science behind this particular event set up is actually on point to be fair.

Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

Wow. In no way meant for that to be a personal attack. Let me rephrase it: if you have an endless supply of fp and the cost of something doesn't matter, then by all means buy the 70fp pack. But it is like rolling a crate to get Mia. There is a much cheaper way to do it. But sure, to each their own.
BTW my fp purchase price for the 3 3xtra hunts goes up from 12 to 37 for the second purchase. So there is a point of diminishing returns on buying the 3 xtra hunts and the 70fp pack might be cheaper after some point. But again I can't imagine a scenario where that is best option unless you are up against the end of the event and cannot wait the 2 hrs it would take to complete the 3 xtra hunts.

Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

I don't think he was. He was just stating his opinion that's all.

Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

Buying the 70fp hunting is a very dumb move compared to buying the 3 xtra hunts for 15fp. But it is worth pointing out that the 3 xtra hunt goes up every time you do it. Mine starts at 12fp and goes up to 15fp on next purchase (I think).
Unless event is on last hour and you need a few collars the 70fp purchase is a fools errand.
As far as the cat not being "mafia cool"; the lowest common denominator is the butterflies. As long as they are around everything else will be bad ass in comparison.

Rather than berate a person that chooses to buy the 70fp hunting, i would rather point out the benefits to do/not do so.

I like the design of the Cat but wish the power were PvP and EvE rather than EvE only.

Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

All u do is do a extra "15fp" hunt a day and u will get the cat...... With poach leveled up its cheaper, cost me 9 fp a day for extra 3 hunts, so 45 fp total for salvatore's kitty. Can be less if u get lucky with your " wild hunts "

Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

Takes longer but in the long run hunting one at a time pays alot better. 70FP for 3 Hunts is pointless. Faster yes but very costly.

[Tayien]

Re: Beast Tamer: Overbearing Cat

Well. 70FP for 3 hunts and 50 ribbons. Or pay 15FP 3 hunts and 30 ribbons. 30FP 6 hunts and 60 ribbons. 45FP for 9 hunts and 90 ribbons. 60FP for 12 hunts and 120 ribbons.
