Beguiling: ability that forces a creature to become the caster’s companion;
Siphon Vim: transfers health from a creature to the caster for several turns.

I got attacked by the puma and tried to fight back with Siphon Vim but quickly realized I’m not gonna win so I tried to beguile it and sure enough it worked.

But then it just kept losing health until it died :c

    But iirc siphon vim is on use and not like damage over time so that seems weird the puma kept dying after beguiling.

    Nah it’s DOT:

    But it shouldn’t last for so many turns! I literally managed to get to Kyakukya before it died.

    Unrelated, you should play a run as an office chair, its fun.

    Dominate is on my list of stuff to try. But at first I want to figure some basic stuff like companions (this run), cooking and tinkering.

      Ooh yeah, theres no debuff clear when you beguile something either. Cooking is so important. Carbide chef is no joke so strong.

        My current main build has Photosynthetic Skin so I’m basically always under its effect. It’s combined with Fasting Way (from Pilgrim start) so I just never run out!

          Yeah but the buffs! You get special buffs with each thing you cook and Carbide Chef increases this by giving you “inspiration” for 2 days every time you explore something new. Then you just whip up a fire and get the best food buff picks of your life.
