Current gameplay guides report that an NPC you defeat and choose to MOG can enter CAPTURED MOGGERS. At your plot, the capture can be assigned to an earning pad through Manage or Auto Equip Best and generate passive MogPoints while you continue collecting. Capture capacity, exact rates, offline behavior, and persistence need live confirmation.
Capture an NPC deliberately
Build Height, Face, Frame, and Bodyfat before approaching a labeled NPC. Use MY STATS to find weak comparisons. Milk raises Height, Hammers improve Face, Picture Frames build Frame, and Water lowers Bodyfat.
Start the Mog Battle only when the matchup looks acceptable. If you win, choose MOG, not SPARE, when the goal is a capture. The official description confirms that MOG erases progress and awards MogPoints; the capture result is community reported from current walkthroughs.
Read the result screen and note the NPC name or tier shown. Do not assume every special NPC, boss, or player can enter the same capture list. Return to the plot before taking another risky battle so you can confirm the first result.
Assign the capture at your plot
Open CAPTURED MOGGERS at your base or plot. Current guides show a Manage control and earning pads. Select the new NPC and place it on an available pad. If Auto Equip Best appears, use it as a starting shortcut, then inspect which captures it selected.
Close the menu and watch the MogPoint balance while standing away from the plot. A capture in the list is not proof that it is earning. Confirm that an assigned pad, visible timer, claim control, or balance change exists in the current server.
If earnings require manual collection, note the full interval and claim method. Do not label income “automatic” when the balance only moves after touching a pad or pressing a button.
Choose which Captured Moggers to equip
Use the fields the current panel actually displays: name, tier, income, interval, capacity cost, or another visible value. Compare two captures under the same conditions. A larger model or higher-sounding name is not enough to rank it.
Auto Equip Best may optimize a value the game defines, but confirm the resulting total. If one capture produces a different currency or effect, a simple highest-income selection may not match your goal. Keep a known working earner assigned while testing one new slot.
When pads are limited, replace the weakest displayed earner only after recording it. The public sources do not publish the maximum number of pads or whether capacity expands through progress or purchases.
Combine passive income with active growth
Once the balance is moving, leave the plot and run the four-pickup circuit. Passive MogPoints should advance while Milk, Hammers, Picture Frames, and Water advance the run. This parallel loop is why captures can be more valuable than repeatedly standing near the shop.
Return between circuits to check assignments, not after every tiny balance change. Spend MogPoints on a planned permanent upgrade or Ability roll. The MogPoints guide separates official currency sources from community-reported sinks.
Do not start a long menu session while a 30-minute progress boost is active. Assign captures first, clear the UI, then redeem the timed code and collect.
Persistence checks after MOG and ASCEND
The accessible first-party descriptions do not say whether captures survive being MOGGED, Prestige/ASCEND, death, rejoin, or server closure. Test on a low-value setup. Record the capture list and pad assignments, experience one boundary, then check the same fields.
Do not test every reset at once. A MOG loss and an immediate rejoin cannot tell you which action changed the list. Keep server, account, and sequence clear.
If captures remain but pads empty, the list may persist while assignments reset. If the balance pauses offline and resumes after joining, label it online passive income rather than offline earnings.
Fix passive MogPoints that are not moving
First, confirm at least one pad has an assigned capture. Reopen Manage and save the selection. Second, wait for the full displayed interval if one exists. Third, check for a manual collection prompt at the pad. Fourth, close other menus and move away to see whether the balance updates.
If nothing changes, record the current balance and rejoin once. Return to your own plot and reopen CAPTURED MOGGERS. Do not delete, release, or replace a valuable capture until you know whether the issue is loading or assignment.
If Auto Equip Best chooses nothing, try one manual assignment. The shortcut may depend on an unlocked pad, a capacity limit, or a capture state not visible in an old guide.
Capture safety
Do not farm a real player merely because their avatar looks valuable. The confirmed capture route comes from NPC gameplay reports, while the developer’s MOG description warns that player progress is erased. Use NPCs for the passive-income loop unless the current UI explicitly explains another consensual mechanic.
Avoid a difficult NPC while carrying a long timed boost. An unfavorable comparison can erase more active growth than the new capture would return. Fix the four-stat sheet first.
Quick answers
How do I get a Captured Mogger? Current guides report winning an NPC Mog Battle and choosing MOG.
Where do I equip it? Return to your plot, open CAPTURED MOGGERS, and use Manage or the current assignment control.
What does Auto Equip Best do? It is shown as an assignment shortcut. Inspect the selected earners and displayed total rather than assuming its ranking rule.
Do captures earn offline? No reliable public evidence confirms offline income. Verify whether the balance changes while away and after rejoining.
Do captures survive Prestige? The complete persistence rule needs current in-game testing.
