Bestiary League FAQ

"Yes, one of the 40 challenges is to complete your Bestiary. " haha will laugh so hard for the people who want 40/40 xd

Ok... you guys played to much pokemon... And I like it ;)

An idea for the nets: Give us turbo nets for faster pokem... i mean monsters, or lead nets for big heavy monsters...
And I hope we could plant trees for monster fruits that allows us to build special nets and so on...

And one question left: Is the name Ash Ketchum still available???

Edit: "Will there be a challenge to catch all of the Beasts?
Yes, one of the 40 challenges is to complete your Bestiary." I hope it will be called "Gotta' catch 'em all" or "complete your Pokedex" etc.

To bad you don´t sell devcards anymore there could be some nice idea for bestiary relevant stuff... also it my be complicated because of copyright...

Thanks

Not to be a hater (actually seems possibly fun / interesting concept for POE) but seems quite a lot of hoops to jump through to engage with the league mechanic:
1 RNG to drop a net (we will see chances)

2 RNG to drop a good net (since the top tier nets might end up being like anul orbs or something ridiculous)

3 RNG to find the beast that is worthy material (rng to spawn)

4 RNG on capture chance
* imo it should be - reduce hp to one while the net is up = captured, cant lower hp enough in lets say 1-2s of the net duration = breaks free (possibly heals a bit + enrage)
* no RNG involved besides crits, accuracy and net tier if you use lower level net than what matches the monster
* the monster being locked down by the net - so what, you have to fight it in the blood pit anyway with several others in a small arena possibly with nasty mods by the arena itself, capturing should not be a major pain in itself

5 possible RNG in the fight

6 RNG in the result

And if we take the screenshots - yes some of the effects seemed somewhat interesting (if we can actually apply the white sockets to an existing item without it screwing with sockets and links for instance) but most (of the seen) are less interesting and desired than what essences can provide for +-0 effort for possibly fraction of the currency involved.

WE POKEMON NOW BOIS

How do I capture a Beast when I do so much damage that I just kill them instantly?
While a creature is in a net, it can not die, so if you're worried about killing it too quickly, throw a net first and attack second. Legendary Beasts are signalled on the minimap before you encounter them, and they're quite tough, noticeable fights. They have substantially more life than a regular rare monster, so they're hard to kill by accident.

how will this work with game mechanics that have an aggressive attack ie: Volatile Dead, spectres, totems ect? these can attack targets around corners and off screen sometimes killing them quickly


I know it was mentioned that some "rare" mobs would show on the map. but will there be a "hold DPS" command to prevent auto attacking mechanics until we can target the mob inside a pack?

this looks like it will be an interesting league,
thx GGG

Any news on this, BEX?
I love using summoners, but the more I read, the less I think I'll be able to participate in this league with that class.


Thank you very much.

Tnanks for the info as always very clear

cheers

Sounds awful: 1) additional micromanagement; 2) punishing for pet/totem/clearspeed builds. But we'll see.

If a cage is full and you capture another Beast of that type, then your worst current one is overwritten with the most recent.

Bex, please define worst, best or better, worse regarding the same beast type!

Dunno what's so funny about that ? I've had my 40 challenges in 1 month this league... Oh yeah you have only 14 after 3 months... :)
