Gromit posted:I've got pretty good at statue-kicking Steve but I'd still rather not as it's no guarantee, and you need to succeed in each mountain until your build is strong enough to kill him normally. I've been waiting to kick him lately until I have a few decent wand bases or good potential to put one together before the next steve; I usually only collapse one or two before I can find a way to get out without triggering him. Also big worms are rough when all you have is a starter wand with two spark bolts; then again early worm blood is absolutely fantastic

Clark Nova posted:A worm did it. The crystal under the holy mountain is supposed to repel them but it is far from perfect From my observations worms seem to be more likely to anger the gods if you haven't entered the temple yet, guessing it's because they can apparently dig through map chunks that haven't been fully loaded/generated so the crystal hasn't spawned in yet?

Does anyone know of a way to get the sound back when it invariably bugs out?

"Restart with enabled mods" should fix the sound issue temporarily, though admittedly it's just a faster version of quitting out, reopening the game and loading the save.

Welp. I have officially drown in the blood of my enemies. Which, while metal as hell, is deeply disappointing in that this was probably my best shot to actually score a regular win in this game where you die sometimes for no reason.

Oh snap, another naturally occurring precursor/midas run. Looks like some combo of Teleportation/Slime/Toxic Sludge/Blood/Weird Fungus, already have a bunch in Fungal Caves.

Sometimes, I'm forced to remember that the reason I think that the worm boss is really easy is because I usually only decide to fight it when I have melee immunity. Turns out, if you don't, then opening the egg from the top is a very bad idea. e: If the game kept a separate statistic for "Losses after picking up the Salt and killing Kolmi," I'm pretty sure it would eclipse my wins. Any amount of EDR digging ability and I just can't help myself. Red Minjo fucked around with this message at 01:58 on May 2, 2024 |

I am a slow learner. I had even wiki'd this guy before but forgot the important bits. That was a cool wand though: lumi drill > long distance cast > lumi drill. I have seen long distance cast before but never really found a use for it until then.

I really like long distance cast and I'm very happy to see it on the first couple floors. It's pretty handy for teleporting -- casting through dense rock/brickwork/etc. will reduce its effective distance but it does still work through them. Otherwise, yeah, great for offensive setups like yours. Splitting bolt is pretty sweet too early on and being able to kill guys through walls is huge.

Found an insane coal pits wand -- this wasn't even from Fungal Caverns! Skipped that poo poo entirely and hauled rear end to the Holy Mountain when I got it. Didn't even have anything to throw in there other than some bouncing bursts, but it made the snowfield Magical Temple a joke and I picked up the spells there to make this bad boy.

Ariong posted:Can someone explain this phenomenon? I’ve seen it happen a few times but just got killed by it for the first time. it looks it may have been a leaky corpse. sometimes when a mob dies some pixel(s) of its corpse will become stuck in some way where it constantly generates the corpse's "blood" you see it a lot with steve, where bone dust will sometimes just rise up like a mountain from some bit of his body

Particles up-warping is very common. When something wants to spawn in the world and the space above it is full, it will sometimes keep looking straight up until it sees a free space to appear in. That's why you will see gold appear on the other side of a platform to where a creature dies. It's very common with fluids and why you avoid standing over the corpses of things that leak lava/acid/toxic. You can use it to your advantage by spraying water through terrain onto one of those fire guys in the first area to hurt or kill them. I was just in WandMart looking for a healing spell (no luck) and found my ghost there, woefully underpowered with a starter wand. I've never seen it outside of the main path down before.

I knew that this particular enemy bleeds lava but it didn’t occur to me that it would continue to do so after death. And it’s no wonder it happened here, because in that clip I killed it with sawblades. Thank you! Gromit posted:Particles up-warping is very common.

I’m familiar with that phenomenon (mostly from losing gold nuggets to it!!!) but that isn’t what happened in this case. The place where I died there is exactly where the lava-bleeding devil guy died.

Yes, that's the same thing. In this case the corpse is still generating lava and has nowhere to go, so it up-warps into the space you are standing in.
|
# ? May 4, 2024 06:47 |
|
it's more that the pixels of the corpse are simply invisible or stuck and it probably shouldn't be generating 500 pixels of lava as a single pixel of lava-person well after it should have stopped

So, when finding the new Touch of Gold spell and wanting to cast it so it appears on your progress list, remember that when your spark bolt with trigger is the double-trigger version, it needs to be at the end of the payload, not by itself at the front. Argh! I've been grass and now gold so I assume the next one will turn me into a gas of some sort.
