Yeah, I did the two camel thing in my last playthrough (and I know @stelagel likes camels) - I found them pretty good. Lots of HP and lots of carrying space, very convenient.
It was a hassle to collect blood, so I stopped using it partway through.
Yeah, it’s handy. I have about three camels with around 64,000 HP each, but since I like to travel with strong slaves, I stopped using them right away. It would be a waste to destroy the teleportorystone I went to the trouble of put, and I can quickly manage them deterioration using a method I figured out myself.
If it’s not a secret, what is your method? I’m very curious.
