I really like black kats.
They are a challenging monster that is fun to fight.
OOO should keep black kats in the game after the event is over at the same spawn rate.
After the event is over the no longer drop ancient pages.
Black kats
The Black Kat made me realize that the purple zombies are only in Darkfire Vanaduke. I think it's time to bring them out of the SL and into normal depth with Black Kats
+1 for Black Kat in-game (at the same rate as Love Puppy/Impostocube) that does drop pages
Like I said in another thread, a danger room with Black Kats in difficult-to-hit positions would be great. Like, say, one spawning behind a gate at the start of the first wave, with the gate only opening at the final wave (and UNLEASHING THE CARNAVON HORDE). You'd have to be quick about killing the large amount of enemies inherent in danger rooms, or the sheer number of Carnavons coming out at the end (along with the Black Kat, of course) could be overwhelming, especially if combined with a Silkwing or two.
I'm actually really bummed that this is ending. It's not only an opportunity for some really good fights, but the equipment is jam packed with info we didn't know about the Kats and Owlites before. (Like, say, the Kat tribe having bombs and artillery... I must get around to thinking of what kind of bombs the Kat tribe would have.)
The Black Kats are genuinely quite fun to fight.
If I may make a suggestion of my own, maybe there should be more common, non-Curse versions of them called "Big Kats" or something?
I really love the black kats, alsthough i do wish they had a new stronger bullet attack. Anyway, i would rather a monstr that is similar to the balck kat takes over and does this random spawn and have the black cat reserved only for the black cat mission.
+1
However, I believe that the event should keep going: the large Black Kats have wandered off, but many of their subordinate mini-black Kats have stayed around.
How about making a curse Kat or Zombie that can spawn at a low chance instead of a regular Kat or Zombie. The Kats will have the chance to drop Ancient Pages(0-3) at exponentially lower chances per extra Ancient Page. These Kats will be regularly sized.
--Black Kats are more like mini-bosses than regular monsters, they don't work well as being a normal mob. My main gripes are how large they are and spawn curse Zombies. They are too much of a surprise and a danger to just copy and paste into the normal part of the game.
(I wish there were updates for the beast and fiend families)
Black kats are fun enemies to fight, also I agree with the idea of ancient pages dropping rarely. Maybe they could be, say, just 2% less rare than the Book of Dark Rituals, and the Book itself should probably be exclusive to the Kat event.
I agree that the black kats are fun to fight. I don't really want the pages to go away completely though. It'd be neat if the pages still had a chance to drop, albeit incredibly small so that lucky people will be able to get the gear after a long while of collecting the pages.
It would only be fair if carnavons randomly replace zombies or toxoils lichens.
