I have a few questions, here and I hope I didn't just miss something.

I'm new to beast keepers and so, per my OCD, am trying to come up with an "ideal" genetic goal to breed towards. A good deal of the traits seem to be a tossup in terms of min-maxing for combat effectiveness, at least from where I'm sitting, which makes it incredibly tantalizing and exciting as to which traits to choose. Bravo on that!

But anyways, I had a question come up when itemizing for a counterattack build as to whether or not the agility statistic affected dodge or not. I try mousing over the stats on the character sheet, checking if there's any explanation in the diet tooltips, checked the FAQ, so on and so forth. And I can't seem to find any information on it unless I just pulled a derp and missed it.

Something I'm also curious about is how the proc from traits like poisonous teeth/claws/hide work. It lasts 1d4 turns and hits for 50% hp, but I have two questions concerning this - one being if the poisonous effect stacks, making multiple poison proc traits viable and the second being if by 50% hp that means 50% of MAX hp....which...truth be told, would seem downright hellish >.>

Thirdly, is there a way we can review the information presented in the tutorial? Because it seems like aside from that first run through where you had a ton of information to absorb all at once there's no way I've found to brush up on it unless, again, I just derped and missed it.

 

Thanks in advance ~ Zenith

Maybe the FAQ can help you with your tutorial questions. In the mean time, I will bring it up with the rest of the staff about creating a forum version of the tutorial for review.

Zenith, Agility do affect Dodge. This question is added to FAQ already (question 5 of the first section), Erislyn is right here :)

The poison doesn't stack. 50% HP means the 50% of the actual HP, not the 50% of max HP. The posion itself can't kill an opponent even if he has only 2 HP left. It would be an overpower if it worked the other way :)

All of the tutorial information is supposed to be in FAQ and tooltips. However if you will have any questions, feel free to ask - maybe we missed some part of info and it wasn't placed anywhere.
