I had a really nice setup. Fire, explosion, and electric immunities; lightning bolts, dual-trigger spark bolts... Except one of the loving spiders in the jungle decided to come up through the floor and Mr. Bones showed up.  I made it past the Vault, but I only managed to get off the ride with 2 HP. Needless to say I did not live for long in the ToTA.

I Said No posted:In a zone that's chock full of a lot of awful poo poo, those white wizards are easily the worst loving thing in Temple of the Art. Even if you leave them alone they just follow you all over the place and try to jump into crossfire so they can laser you to death. I had no idea that was their gimmick until after I died and looked up the enemy name.

FunkyFjord posted:I've played over a hundred easy without as single win, but i like being brazen and dumb and pushing my luck and not taking things slow. Going slow doesn't always help you out either, because it's nearly impossible to recover damage outside of progress. Even picking up max-HP boosts doesn't give a boost to your actual HP. So every mistake quickly adds up. From what I can tell watching people who stream it, RNG still plays a big role, but generally wins do get more consistent.

The one thing that never fails to disappoint me is how all the good, fun stuff is hidden deeper, so to actually play with most of it you have to survive the boring top half. I've seen enough wands with only "Rain Cloud (10)" to last a lifetime.

Mimics will also float on water, and will always be perfectly horizontal. Real chests are physics objects and can end up rotated or leaning against walls or whatever. It's a shame they drop nothing good.

Zesty posted:I hope they add achievements for all the extra things so people have a vague sense there's SO much that they're missing. I hope they add cheevos for all the various ways to die (including "used the attack that makes you explode while polymorphed into a thing that explodes to attack"), but not really the extra stuff. That stuff might work better in a different, more obfuscated way. The tablets would be a nice use for this, since they otherwise don't really do much other than act as very good and very painful footballs. Zesty posted:I got polymorphed into one of those flying fire guys from the first level and tried to float into a body of water to wash off the polymorph effect. TooMuchAbstraction posted:My favorite death is when I found a wand that cast Summon Wand. I used it in the Hiisi Base, and it summoned a wand with the Earthquake spell. The resulting collapse killed the wand and very nearly killed me, but I survived, picked up the dead wand, and used it again. And that collapse got the job done! If at first you don't succeed...

Yeah, knockback effectively disables all air control until you land. There was a mod I was using that disabled that and it made a big change in the amount of difficulty I felt the game had. It'd be nice to see some stuff like that for difficulty options.

You can also survive the ending's death effect if you're just fast enough to get away from it, or pre-dig a quick exit. It's doable in vanilla, though there's not much of a reason to do so I think.Eric the Mauve posted:So let me tell you about my latest Noita experience. I got it a couple weeks ago and, being Very Bad at it, have died a couple hundred times, usually hilariously, and probably still don't really understand how rods work. I am cheating with the auto-regen mod and set it to regen about 3HP a second. Fleeing to safety and standing around a minute or two to recover my health is boring and lame, you say? Yes, yes it is. But so is running the mines over and over and over. And over. And over. I play with the regen mod sometimes as well, because the mines are extremely boring, especially given that said level also tends to spawn a few fixed (not good) wands and a much smaller handful of actual random things.

Gravity gun?  That'll go real well with Trick Blood Money / Greed, assuming it still counts as """accidental""".The Gold is Forever perk is pretty nice and really shows how much infighting there is that you just never get to see. The levitation trail perk also gives me some Vectorman vibes, though I wish it actually shot down as opposed to just staying in place.

I hope some day there's an option to just make all the wands stupid and random. I know the Mines originally had a lot of limited-generation wands that were utter garbage and there was a mod or something that would replace those with actual random ones. A lot of the fun in this is making incredibly stupid wands that killed everything (including you) and it feels like you might as well skip the first two areas and pray you get something decent in the third.

Wand 1: Splitter Bolt (1) Wand 2: Rain Cloud Flask: Water Slightly random starting loadouts are fun, but good grief you can get some real stinkers. Also, the telekinetic kick perk is absolutely hilarious when you're just casually punting bombs and body parts around.

CodfishCartographer posted:I kind of want a mod where you don't know what a spell is until you shoot it. Like it would just show a "?" or something as the icon and mouse-over text. There's actually some (possibly left over) functionality for this. Every spell defines an "unidentified" sprite to use for itself and most of these sprites are shared between the same themes (so the path modifiers all look the same, etc). I don't know if it's still implemented. That being said, there's a ton of leftover spells, like "misfire" and "misfire critical" that discards a spell and destroys a spell, respectively. Yikes.

dyzzy posted:They ostensibly unlock the spells for generation but I feel like I've seen wands that have those spells on them even without the orb unlock (my orb progress got reset by 1.0 for some reason) Orbs and spell unlocks are tracked separately, but getting an orb sets both at the same time. So if just your orbs got reset then the spells are still valid. (see C:\Users\(you)\AppData\LocalLow\Nolla_Games_Noita\save00\persistent) DalaranJ posted:Do the orbs permanently unlock their spells to appear in shops? Also random wands, which is really fun when a random enemy bumbles across a wand with a nuke or five on it.

Some of the perks you can get are outright run-ending; leggy and lukki both completely invalidate several perks (stronger/faster levitation, levitation trail, gravity etc) and a lot of them are just situational wandcrafter ones that are almost never worth taking unless you're doing newgame+ or parallel worlds poo poo (capacity increase, low capacity/high mana, faster wands etc) The limited slots you have for wands combined with the inability to actually edit them almost anywhere, plus permadeath, means that it's often not worth trying to experiment with silly or unusual wands over just going for something with low delay + trigger into chainsaws or the like. I definitely feel like there's room for a chaotic mode type where wands are truly random (and largely overpowered) with Tinker With Wands Everywhere by default so you can just gently caress around with sillier builds, without risking losing potentially hours of run. I think I'd also split the perks into two sets that you get to pick one from each of, where one set is the perks as they are now and the other set are wandbuilding, one-time perks like Always Cast / Faster Wands / etc (though with more variety). Would make taking something like Always Cast less of a throwaway perk.

Oil Blood is pretty terrible just because Explosion Immunity is a far better perk and it requires Fire Immunity to not self-immolate constantly, and given fire does percent-of-max-HP damage rather than a fixed amount it's really bad to be on fire. E: It strikes me as funny though because most things that 'bleed' oil tend to be extremely weak to explosions but resistant to everything else. E E: Make oil blood give you immunity to freezing / frozen vapour

Eric the Mauve posted:What’s the preferred strat for breaking into the parallel worlds? Do you basically need to somehow have 1000+ HP or a means of on-demand healing to survive the cursed rock? As said, black holes (preferably with speed up or other things that make it eat more), a teleport wand, and ambrosia. Don't move, just teleport around. If you can, you can also delete a lot of the cursed rock with black holes and try to fly through, though you'll take mystery damage from merely being in the same area even if the rock itself is gone (which is kind of poo poo imo) Eric the Mauve posted:For purposes of putting together a reliable murderwand, there is only a small selection of spells you’re really looking for, and all but one of them are modifiers: damage plus, crit plus, heavy shot, increase mana, reduce recharge, and chainsaw. Also triple/quad spell of course, but those are everywhere. The modifiers (and a wand with the capacity, mana, and low enough recharge to take advantage of them) are what you’re really looking for. You generally don’t find them until midgame at best, but they are the real reason you want to risk exploring at least some of the fungal caverns. The basic murder wand is Spark Bolt With Trigger into Damage Plus / Heavy Shot into any multicast into other spells like Triplicate Bolt.

Ciaphas posted:why is the trigger needed for a basic murderwand, I never quite got that With Trigger spell: Lets you deliver a large package of murder at range, prevents spells in the package from loving up your cast delay/recharge times Modifiers: boost damage done by the coming projectiles Multicast: applies previous modifiers to every projectile in the multicast, real fun with spells like Triplicate that create multiple projectiles Other wand types are the shotgun-style (just fire off a bunch of spells at once) and the machine gun (rapid-fire projectiles). Main problem with shotgun-style is inaccuracy and cast delay/recharge, main problem with machine-gun is you tend to either run out of mana or don't have very many modifiers on it to keep mana down. The trigger approach avoids the worst of both while allowing you to basically deliver damage point-blank.

Easiest way to test if it's mod-related is just turning off all the mods you have enabled and dying twice. That'd rule that out. But I'd assume it's due to some other issue. What are you using, Steam? Itch?
