Irradiated Gruel

[Gools]

Not sure if anyone else has tried using this yet, but i have and let me tell you. I have been VERY frustrated with it.

The description says that there is a 35% chance of mutating the prisoner instead of increasing the blood type by 1-2%.
Ive burnt through 7 prisoners in a row, and every. single. time. they mutate. Never fails.
Has anyone actually managed to get an increase over a mutation?????

its good for 96%+ bloods only, dont even go there for anything below it will be pure luck. It is good imo, i think the prison flooring should reduce that 35% though which would be sweet.

by the way my blood scholar was 96 the first use of gruel made it 98 then 99 and finally 100.

ive a 78 scholar as the highest ive found so far, im building a mini prison outside my (now main) castle to prevent it from potentially killing my other scholars lol

So have I, and what you're telling me is that you're just making stuff up and have no proof.

Come on, you are dishonest, ask any old player

Gruel could probably use a small buff. Maybe instead of 1-2% increase and 35% failure, could be 3-5% increase and 25% failure. Might feel a bit more worth it to try.

Nah. I use it on everything 85%+

It's dirt cheap to make, so there's no reason to not try. Capture someone, drain them for 2 or 3 blood merlots, and then gamble on raising their %. If they die, they die, oh well, you lost nothing.

i have to admit that it would be cool if they lower the chance because 35% ... yeah you legit want to pick blood carrier down to 98% ... if you want a chance to get a pure blooded.

25% would be ok as it is basically 1/4 of chance per try.
35 is overkill

[Panda-Bishop]

I would've much preferred 35% chance to lose 2~4% blood quality for the potential 1~2% gain. A 35% chance to effectively throw away the NPC for such a small gain doesn't seem worth it unless you're overstocked with 90%+ prisoners like the Costco of human trafficking.

Guys, 35% is a HUGE gamble for failure. Only do this if you have a "spare" minion and there is no concern if its lost.

[DexGames]

I stopped using it when lost two 97%
(sucess to 99%, then mutation. Wanna die)

As Adefice is saying, this is a gamble, don't do it, if you are not ready to lose.

This is not in the game, so you can just get a low percent, and then max it out.

[Pay Child Suport]

i lost my 97% scholar. any tips or is this just completely rng? also do I have to max hp the prisoner first before rolling the gacha?

[kazar]

Completely rng.

[MRV1N]

ure just unlucky,thats it.

[Toki]

I am at three mutation out of three attempts, I am about to finish the game.
This is not 30% and they should limit RNG-based mechanics.
For something that is so rare it's frustrating
Finding 1 98% and doing the thing should be enough

[Fox Tail]

IMO this item should be massively buffed. It should easily cost more to make 10x more to make, but it should increase blood quality by 5-10% instead of 1%-2 each use and it should only have a 10% chance to mutant not 35% chance.

TBH they clearly nerfed the spawn rates for 100% blood quality NPCs I've yet to see one in over 40 hours on my new playthorugh were as the last playerthrough I had in less than 40 hours a prison full of ever type of 100% quality blood NPCs. I'm pretty sure they did this because they want people to gamble with this stupid Irradiated Gruel because I've seen so many NPCs in the 90% ranges but never 1 at 100%, to put it simply if I wanted to gamble I would be playing black desert online not V rising.
