Basic Info
- Tribe: Snowdwellers
- Attack: 1
- HP: 1
- Counter: 3
- Effect: When destroyed, a random ally x1 Frenzy grants
Rating
A-tier death-trigger Frenzy distributor. Pootie has 1 HP and dies in a single hit — that's the design. When destroyed, a random ally permanently gains +x1 Frenzy. Each death event is +1 Frenzy to the highest-priority target (random, but fewer allies = more reliable targeting). In a party with Foxee (x3 Frenzy base) and Tiny Tyko (x2 Frenzy base), one Pootie death adds a hit to whichever attacker receives it. Multiple Pootie deaths stack the effect — two deaths = +x2 Frenzy total spread across one or two allies.
The Recall loop is Pootie's ceiling. A Recall item returns Pootie to hand. Redeploy her, she dies again, another random ally gets +x1 Frenzy. With two Recall items: three Pootie deaths per fight, three +x1 Frenzy distributions. In a run that includes Recall sources, Pootie functions as a Frenzy-stacking engine with no upper limit per fight.
How to Use
Deploy Pootie front-row into incoming enemy attacks. She absorbs one hit and dies, giving a random ally +x1 Frenzy. Counter 3 means she may even fire her 1-damage attack once before dying — minimal damage but the death trigger is what matters.
Reduce party size to improve targeting odds. With two companions total, each Pootie death has a 50% chance to hit either attacker. With Foxee and Tiny Tyko as the two remaining allies and Pootie dying, the Frenzy lands on one of the two best Frenzy recipients in the game. Don't fill your bench with filler companions when running Pootie — fewer targets means more reliable delivery.
Spice items on a Frenzy-heavy ally after Pootie has died scales multiplicatively. If Foxee has x5 Frenzy from Pootie deaths and receives Spice 4, that 4 Spice is effectively 4 × 5 = 20 bonus damage on the next activation.
Advanced Techniques
Recall loop: infinite Frenzy stacking. Any Recall item (or companion that returns cards to hand) lets Pootie die multiple times in one fight. Each death = +x1 Frenzy to a random ally. With persistent Recall access across multiple fights, a run's Frenzy economy grows substantially.
Small party control. In a 2-ally party (Pootie + one attacker), every Pootie death goes to that one attacker. Deterministic Frenzy distribution converts Pootie's random trigger into a reliable buff.
Good Synergy Cards & Charms
- Foxee — x3 Frenzy base; Pootie deaths adding x1 Frenzy scale her total damage per activation by one full additional hit
- Tiny Tyko — grows Frenzy permanently when hit and from Pootie deaths; already the game's highest Frenzy ceiling, Pootie accelerates it
- Recall items — each Recall use = one more Pootie death = one more +x1 Frenzy distribution per fight
- Spice items on Frenzy allies — Frenzy multiplies the Spice benefit; stacking both on Foxee generates extreme burst
