⚡ What Beast of Omen does
Every 30 minutes at base weight, the Manticore eats a fruit with 8 or more mutations. Then it rolls a 20% chance, again and again, working down this list until a roll fails:
- Toxic (×15) on a random fruit
- a Large XP Boost
- a Large Passive Boost
- 12,000 XP
- an ability refresh for a pet
The odds drop fast. At base weight, you get Toxic 1 time in 5, the XP Boost 1 in 25, and the full chain about 1 in 3,000. At the 40% cap, Toxic is 2 in 5 and the full chain about 1 in 100.
It always eats the 8-mutation fruit, so it costs you a valuable fruit every time. Favorite the ones you want to keep.
📈 Manticore stats by weight
| Pet weight | Cooldown | Chance per link | XP (fourth link) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 kg | 27:00 | 22% | 12,120 XP |
| 25 kg | 22:30 | 25% | 12,300 XP |
| 50 kg | 15:00 | 30% | 12,600 XP |
| 100 kg | 15:00 | 40% | 13,200 XP |
The chance per link doubles to 40% at 100 kg, which makes every later reward far more likely. The cooldown halves to 15 minutes at 50 kg. The XP reward grows only 12 per kilogram.
