Ah that’s right, I forgot that you needed a more specific item. Sorry about that.

Item details

The Rogue evasion items have damage types and the Cat is a "Focused" encounter, which means it takes more Obscuring damage but less Distraction damage.

The only Obscuring damage item at the moment is the Smoke Bomb.

i happened to use that exact weapon (trying to avoid spoiling others)

EDIT: also do i need lvl 2 rogue?

I beat the cat by having :

max constitution ,min strength ,min wisdom this minimizes his damage and give you as much hp

be a rogue and us smoke bomb because its an evasive encounter I think

edit: you might need to try multiple times for enough damage and I had rogue lv2

to get the right stats you can use the minimise dice number and maximize dice

you need to use them on the side where you see the Dice nunber + Dice number(for example 6+1 on strength you use minimize on 6 and it becomes 1+1)

The short answer is likely yes, you will probably need level 2 rogue and a second dexterity die.

Explanation

It may be possible to complete with 6 DEX & 12+ CON, but it almost certainly requires 1 STR & 1 WIS, which may be impossible if you already have two STR dice (something I overlooked during testing).

Once you have level 2 rogue, you’ll be able to increase the damage of Smoke Bomb still further with a talent point. So that + 12 DEX + 12 CON + 1 or 2 STR + 1 WIS should be a win.

Sorry it took a while to figure out where you were at. It’s definitely an encounter I’ll be looking at further; it’s scaled up a lot because you can bring a few multipliers against it, but obviously it’s a roadblock if you haven’t unlocked those multipliers yet.

yeah i don't have rogue lvl 2 and i don't see any other way to progress, i have 6 dex and 12 con + 2 from perk so 14, other stats are 1 str is 2, using rogue and smoke bomb, all that and it seems to take a ton of luck to get enough damage rolls

It’s a little tough to tell where you are in the Rogue arc, but if you’ve gotten the Rogue shop and aren’t level 2 yet, you probably need explore the Upper River District. Once you’ve complete the jobs there, you’ll have a few more chats at the Selky Pint which will give you another job and level 2 Rogue (obviously this is a top-level overview).

Some more specifics:

The job in the Upper River District is the Dunhaven Heist, which requires Rogue skills and Grenn (switching him into your party requires you to go to the party screen and double-click Lia's icon in the party order).

The Dunhaven Heist involves a set of evasion and mechanism encounters that are generally quite a bit easier than the Anemic Cat, but you have to do them all back-to-back. Checking out the estate beforehand can make it easier, and you might learn things on a run that make it worth rerolling/restarting the expedition.

If/When you complete the Heist, you’ll return to the Selky Pint to report your success, which should carry you further along the Rogue Arc.
