Arcanuse posted:The Jandit!® sounds interesting, could've sworn one of the Lords had a way to rust gear. Also for extended underwater trips. i like these selections, maybe trade the blow for Jandit or perhaps before we do any trades we should see what the new category unlocks - i voted for intergalactic cause it sounds rad but whichever one gets opened should offer new items in that category?

We're not voting on actual trades yet, but I'm interested in the arete award - that's a +1 to our IQ, which is actually quite helpful, and it's D-rank so it'll probably be quite cheap. I also like the Deluxifier for either our suit or the black blade, the coffee plant for our fragile mental health, and the sword scroll to give us a physical option in combat besides blade majestueux. (We don't actually need to replace our suit at the moment - the webbing took it from DR 1 to DR 5, which is almost on par with Lucky Armor 777 - but an upgrade would still be nice.)

Arete award sounds amazing, so does thuderdraw (but our DX is not good enough to use it) The 777 armor is hillarious but will probably kill us with anxiety over not being able to wear a suit again. Whaler would be great, what with being a nodachi and all, but breaking on 12 is a big no-go. I would love to drink a @ and get the arete award. Coffee plant is cool except we have nothing to brew coffee in, so.

Oh and btw, the grimrist being a jeweled thunder-slayer is a nod to Valkyrie Profile, where it was the first artifact weapon you could get. This is not the first nod to taht series, with something else being described as "Hristian" before and of course the entire premise of the valkyrie class we didn't pick.

Ohhhh, that is the NICEST thing I've had since I awoke. It's easily the best cup of coffee in this existence or the last. I don't have enough blood and brain to really grasp the coffee's potence, but I know it warms and soothes my troubled biology. TYRANNY: [3%] [+Joy] Taking me further away from any deep meditation on the coffee is my eyes drifting over the menu, and the choices I want to make. I can't really... tell what the special stock shelves say exactly, so I point at the one stylized in black and white. "Ahhh... fine pick. A rare chance, leatherskin." The merchant seems much more relaxed now that he's had his brew, and the immediate death-tension has worn off. He shambles around, always with that gurgly wheeze under his shroud, checking levers and slides to make room for my top shelf choice. A compartment slides out of a hidden section along the top of the boat, as he brings down a large display case. It's made of some glossy black bugshell substance, with muted-white handles. He sets it up beside the selection he picked for me, and pops it open with bombast. It unfolds into a large display stand with a variety of weird things. The inside has black velvet, as well as dozens of small inset glass displays with miniaturized casino games. Roulette, cards, chess, slots... it makes me think of Blue. Inside, there's a sinister looking black die, a plain black suit bag, a weird little palm-size slot machine, a baroque crystal bottle filled with something of gradient black, a tiny red needle, a bar-like hunk of some broken-off ebon material, a fancy gemstone playing card, and... looks like a steak in a special-sealed bag. Well. I do have things to trade. The coffee's wonderful flavor affords me just enough time for clarity to make a trade. I got lucky- if I make good on a trade, I can walk away from this alive and maybe return another time. I need to get this over with and then make my way back to the Hideout. The coffee plant IS up for sale. Looking at the details, it says it comes with a little grind-brew. Probably no good for on-the-go, but just fine for the hidden room. Time to decide. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - So far I see this consensus. Put up the Blow, Tchoblade, and Gold Ink Scroll for trade. Most desired items so far seem to be #1 the Coffee, followed by Jandit!®, the Arete Award, and finally the Deluxifier. This is a rough trade less structured than most buys, and the character has no true merchant skill, but aren't being too fleeced either. The Tchoblade is the most valuable, with the Blow second and the Scroll third. Trading all three of those items would earn you an open three-item trade, meaning you could take all but one of those four top picks. Before that's decided tomorrow morning however, check the new 3am update and see if there's anything that jumps out as a better trade option. Top shelf theme categories will ALWAYS be for sale once unlocked with Napp, while the normal wares mostly change each encounter. Napp Has 3am Wares For Sale!

That's not a guaranteed night's sleep, that's a teleport to dreamlands... p sure you don't get well-rested by loving around there. Anyway, the 3AM wares all kinda suck except for the insta-kill, which we don't need right now. I will vote for 1. Arete award 2. Coffee plant (now that we know it comes with a grinder/boiler) 3. Deluxifier Gotta jazz up our suck-sword. COMEDY OPTION 1. Buy suitable 2. Buy 777 armor 777 suit. Regallion fucked around with this message at 09:17 on Feb 1, 2021 |

the 777 suit would be crazy powerful, assuming we can wear it gives a use of this perk for reference, but once per 7 hours: Luck - Lady Luck smiles on you! Once per hour of real-time play, you can choose any roll you make and reroll it two times, picking the best of the three. Hodgepodge fucked around with this message at 09:31 on Feb 1, 2021 |

[Not the worst pull, but not great either. Napp was a wildcard. If the first encounter doesn't end in tragedy thanks to poor rolls and reactions, he always ends up an all-game reliability of RNG wares. Sometimes he can make or break a onerun. His wares are always random each encounter, and he'll often offer something that's WELL outside of the pre-lategame paygrade with AAA, S, and even S+ items. Some evidence in the Blue Book suggests there is no true limit on what Napp can randomly generate to sell, with some absolutely wild examples. Sometimes he'll have an endgame sword for sale on the first meet, with JUST enough items and cash and good rolls to squeak in a trade for it. Usually though, even A and A+ items are out of reach during the opening Holy Valley.] [The top shelf wares was another angle of RNG. The categories offered can change, with one or two categories replacing another at irregular points. Once unlocked, a category stays for all-game buy planning. They're almost always expensive items, gimmicks, or ones that require time to see fruition. Some were close to broken, at least for one Megalith or another, or certain difficult encounters. Having Aldebaran down in the Nuclear is a live saver. Anamelech's Wrap helped a lot with berserker tactics and Jandoubi. The Quintessence Cannon wasn't a bad backup for FP-heavy builds, and the Jar of Delisauce was mildly OP. Since a couple of Salty Tokens were missed, there was just the first-time offer of a random category unlock, and it landed on 3am.] [No money and not a lot to trade so not a lot to get, but the Tchoblade does have a lot of buying power... after which came the fingers-crossed of getting back to the Hideout with minimal RNG threats before nightfall.]

Suitable has a lot of potential, but I don’t see anything to use it with immediately - unless we also get the chitin shard or gemwood cord, in which case we could get some seriously badass armour now and some good growth potential later. Portable Slot would be absolutely bonkers good if we had a reliable source of damage of an element of our choosing - it’s useless for now, but definitely something to keep in mind. Midnight Hour is our ticket to visit Ulthar - we’re definitely going to want it sooner or later. Redshift bit feels like a trap - we buy it, we lose it, we beat ourselves up over it. No idea what the Caesarino Steak would be used for. Ace of spades feels like it has amazing potential if we also had some way to nuke our opponents’ HT rolls, but right now I think any opponent we have enough trouble with to use it on would also have enough HT to pass the roll - we’d be better off with the Tchoblade. I’m going to vote for Suitable, the e: Actually, it opens up another option as well: if we get Suitable, we should put up the black silk and bloody silk for trade as well. The only reason we're holding onto those things is that they'll one day let us make a nice suit, and Suitable does that better! pumpinglemma fucked around with this message at 10:52 on Feb 1, 2021 |

Dumb question, but what would happen if we put our suit into the suitable? Would it stay the same or would it give us a new suit with the same properties? And I can see Ace of Spades being good to off a Lord, or possibly the flying fortress that is now a lord's outer body (That is what Hunter has, right? A flying fortress style situation?) Edit: Whatever we trade, we should focus on his "Deals of the day" before his special categories. Though I still vote for coffee plant. I guess Deluxifier is good too. If we can trade the red silk for the Suitable and feed the black silk into it, that works for me. Randalor fucked around with this message at 13:45 on Feb 1, 2021 |

if we could pick up a really good HT debuff and get our DX to a good level then ace of spades could be pretty handy, i wonder if it would kill the boss lady? suitable does certainly sound interesting - i wonder if we could get the deluxifier and upgrade it? maybe make it able to combine different items to make our suit?

Like the Deluxifier, the Suitable does not work on all items, but does work on the majority. Truly essential items (like the Black Blade) can't be converted, and putting suits in the bag will simply make it act like a regular bag to protect a suit. It lists N/A for a Rank because the Rank of the suit the bag can create can vary- technically the bag isn't Armor, but a special item that produces Armor.
