*However, if you want a certain boon, you need to pay close attention to which option will push {{IL|Bodily Tendency}} into the range needed for your boon. Your starting {{IL|Bodily Tendency}} is randomized, and the challenges are exceedingly high, so you might not be able to get the boon you wanted on your first try.

Starting from {{IL|Preparing for Ecdysis}} 2, the carousel is heavy on menaces, namely {{IL|Nightmares}} and {{IL|Wounds}}. [[Root yourself in place]] is the only safe option and is always available, but only yields 1CP of {{IL|Preparing for Ecdysis}}. If your focus is on cashing out and/or finishing as quickly as possible, it might be worth taking the potential 4CP to each menace in exchange for finishing the carousel in only 9 actions (as opposed to 19 actions and no menaces). Do keep in mind the actions required to reduce your up to 8 CP in menaces per carousel run, you can expect to spend at least 2 additional actions on Aid requests, and if you run the carousel 3 times for the maximum {{IL|Bodily Reshaping}} (giving 24 CP in menaces), you can expect to spend at leat 4 actions if you take the best options for {{IL|Allow them to watch over your rest (sincere)|Appearance=Nightmares}} and {{IL|Drink the medicine they bring (sincere)|Appearance=Wounds}} aid requests unless you have a better or more profitable method to spend your actions on. Thus it might be for the best to mix in safe options instead of going purely menace free or all menaces.

Starting from {{IL|Preparing for Ecdysis}} 2, the carousel is heavy on menaces, {{IL|Nightmares}} and {{IL|Wounds}} in particular. [[Root yourself in place]] is the only safe option and is always available, but only yields 1CP of {{IL|Preparing for Ecdysis}}. If your focus is on cashing out and/or finishing as quickly as possible, it might be worth taking the potential 4CP to each menace in exchange for finishing the carousel in only 9 actions (as opposed to 19 actions and no menaces). Do keep in mind the actions required to reduce your up to 16 CP in menaces per carousel run, you can expect to spend at least 2 additional actions on Aid requests, and if you run the carousel 3 times for the maximum {{IL|Bodily Reshaping}} (giving 48 CP in menaces), you can expect to spend 8 actions if you take the best options for {{IL|Allow them to watch over your rest (sincere)|Appearance=Nightmares}} and {{IL|Drink the medicine they bring (sincere)|Appearance=Wounds}} aid requests unless you have a better or more profitable method to spend your actions on. Thus it might be for the best to mix in safe options instead of going purely menace free or all menaces.
