To unlock the Firepower Meow pet in Soul Knight, complete the limited-time egg incubation objectives before the seasonal event ends. Missing the incubation period locks the companion until its scheduled return window in November.

Firepower Meow functions as an offensive ranged artillery pet rather than a standard melee or defense companion, launching explosive shells that deal area-of-effect damage across crowded dungeon rooms.

How to Hatch and Unlock Firepower Meow

Unlocking Firepower Meow requires accumulating incubation progression through standard dungeon play and event turn-ins. Completing full dungeon runs yields the fastest progress.

Progression MethodPrimary BenefitRecommended Action
Standard Stage ClearsSteady incubation pointsClear rooms quickly on Normal mode to maximize completion speed.
Boss Floor TakedownsMajor milestone chunksDefeat bosses on floors 1-5, 2-5, and 3-5 to gain large progress bursts.
Daily Event QuestsGrowth multipliersClear daily task board challenges that reward companion growth items.
Material Turn-insTimer reductionDeposit surplus event currency into the hatching menu immediately.

If you do not complete the hatching thresholds during the active run, save your resources for the event's return in November.

Combat Role and Hero Synergies

Firepower Meow attacks from behind frontline obstacles, firing explosive volleys that clear swarms without exposing the pet to direct melee collision damage or poison pools. Because its projectiles deal explosive splash damage, heroes who herd enemies or provide sustained defense maximize its output:

  • Alchemist: Poison clouds slow enemy movement corridors, grouping enemies together where splash damage hits the maximum number of targets.
  • Knight: Dual-wield weapon saturation clears enemy bullet patterns, shielding the pet from stray projectiles while melting elite targets.
  • Paladin: Energy Shield absorbs incoming bullets and laser fire, allowing you to body-block damage while Firepower Meow freely attacks from behind cover.
  • Rogue: Dodge rolls draw enemy targeting away from the pet, maintaining uninterrupted firing windows for ranged artillery shells.

Pet Affinity Stat Priorities

Upgrading Firepower Meow’s affinity in the lobby with pet food improves its performance inside the dungeon. Spend pet food on stats in the following order:

  1. Attack Frequency: Reduces the firing cooldown so the pet attacks immediately upon entering each room, eliminating fragile ranged enemies before they fire.
  2. Health Pool: Increases durability so the pet survives sustained bullet patterns and explosive hazards on later floors without fainting.
  3. Movement Speed: Keeps the pet in range of moving packs and helps it reposition away from advancing melee units.

Dungeon Movement and Boss Tactics

To get the most value out of Firepower Meow during a run, adjust your room positioning to support indirect fire:

  • Room Clears: Circle the outer perimeter of the room when entering an uncleared floor. Hostile melee units will follow your path into a grouped cluster, allowing Firepower Meow to hit the entire trailing pack with explosive shells.
  • Boss Fights: Stand behind unbreakable stone pillars and terrain barriers. Bosses will direct attacks harmlessly into cover, while Firepower Meow angles explosive volleys over low barriers to chip down boss health safely.
