Therian Saga

I'm getting ready to build my first Bestarium. I'd rather not have to repeat the experience, so I'm hoping to make one that's good enough to max GM's blunt off. Would a full Mara Bestarium be enough?

use it to plan your optimal bestarium (full mara is 60 as you would see, so use some palp and it's good. Swamp Beast is 61+15=76 blunt max, though 60 may be enough to get it to 61? I don't remember tbh, IMO better to build it all from palp and be on a safe side - you may wanna get a T5 glutomole some day and that one needs something better than mara (cave 63 for ex.) )

Thanks for the thsim link -- I feel like I find a new resource on there every day. This is really my question, though:

though 60 may be enough to get it to 61?

If 60 Training is enough to get GM to 61 then I think I'll just build a Mara Bestarium in Den and worry about Palp for a potential T5 later on. Can anyone weigh in on that?

well it is a fact that ppl use 67 academy to train boars slash up to 68, but I must confess that I never had a chance to try this mself since my academy was closer to ~75 from the start (the less rebuilds later - the better IMO XD)

I have a 60 bestarium and it worked to train GM's BO to 76. You can always use a balm or feed to train one level above your teaching score. The balm or feed can be any score above 60, but it will only train your comp one level higher than the teaching score.
Maybe one day I will upgrade it to a 75 What is that made out of? volca?

Thanks, both of you. Mara it is -- for now, at least.
