[–] Hillock@kbin.social 32 points 2 years ago (4 children) You can also summon scratch and he will find it for you. Apparently he even finds chests that don't have a visible survival check. But I can't confirm that because I never have him summoned. permalink fedilink source hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] EtherealMoon@lemmy.world [S] 18 points 2 years ago That's the only reason I tried the shovel. I started using Scratch more and figured there had to be a way to reveal what he's pointing at if you fail. permalink fedilink source parent [–] greensage@lib.lgbt 7 points 2 years ago It was nice until he would still sniff out ones I've already dug or worse get himself caught in an encounter and then blasted to bits permalink fedilink source parent [–] Pyroglyph@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (2 children) You can summon Scratch?! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Hillock@kbin.social 9 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Yup, it's an ability called "Find Familiar: Scratch" You need to have had a few interactions with him in the camp before the ability appears. I think it can be found in the "Common" section of your spellbook once you have it. You also don't need to worry about him dying. You can always resummon him. But he is fairly useless in combat and other familiars are better. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Hairyblue@kbin.social 12 points 2 years ago (2 children) Scratch is a good boy. He brings me gifts in camp.

I think that's all of them. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AnagrammadiCodeina@feddit.it 1 point 2 years ago My owlbear disappeared randomly after 2 times he was in camp (and I interacted with him).
