I feel like this is one of those questions that doesn’t really have an answer but I’d like your opinion on it because you are really good at putting sense to all this nonsense and speculation if that’s ok!! So remember how dirk wasted a specious card because he put fancy santa kind? I remember you posting about that I think, anyway what dictates what can be used as a specibus ? Because roses knitting needles were as useless as the Santa before alchemizing them.

Back in Act 1, John turned the Strife selection thing over and just like, pretty much anything could be a Kind Abstrata to fight with.

THAT being said, are you REALLY comparing the Needles to a Fancy Santa? The Fancy Santa is a shitty figurine that’s likely to shatter against an enemy before the enemy is damaged. Meanwhile, Rose did this with completely unprototyped Needles.
