lol the blue guys shooting big sparkly blue energy balls at you in the ice caves are lightning wizards, not ice wizards. I learned this by dodging into a pool

Danger - Octopus! posted:Once you've finished the mines and gone through the first temple or whatever it is to the coal pits, is there any way to get back up to the surface? Or do you need to luck into good items in the mines to go exploring the starting area? I’ve snuck around over the lava pit to the right of the mines, down a wall and back underneath it to the left through a huge empty area to the ice caves below the second temple. You could do that in reverse if you have massively boosted/unlimited flight

Hopefully that'll be less boring or less of an advantage as the game gets fleshed out. I do kinda enjoy tripping balls on wyrm blood at the start of every run though

There's a perk that increases wand accuracy in exchange for massive recoil. You can use it to fly indefinitely with a pretty wimpy wand e: didn't get a chance to try that with the starter wand but I had one that was pretty close. Also didn't get a chance to try the perk with a spell that already had appreciable recoil - I imagine it would send you flying backwards half a screen Clark Nova fucked around with this message at 00:19 on Oct 2, 2019 |

A shield or some other way to mitigate bullets really, really helps with the ice caves and the base. It's pretty much mandatory if you don't have some way to torch motherfuckers from behind cover. You're pretty much hosed if you don't have either one of those things

Some random thoughts/hints: If you use the scroll wheel to cycle through your inventory while underwater with a thunder stone, you will die Toxic sludge won't take you down past 1 HP (but acid will) You drown real fast as a polymorphed sheep Squirting a bit of water in a big pool of toxic sludge will turn the whole thing to water Fireproof is not lavaproof

You have to be careful to flee up and backwards while spewing noxious poo poo like acid, poison or flames, and never try to use it in close combat unless you have an immunity

Is the electro wizard start supposed to make you immune to getting wet? I've played it two times, and the first time I couldn't get wet at all (i.e. no way to douse flames except total immersion in a liquid) and the second time I could get wet starting out, but after ~5 minutes I couldn't. Never had that happen with the electrified perk on its own.TooMuchAbstraction posted:Maybe slime blood should make you go faster when you're slimed. Yeah, the perks with literally no upside suck, because you can just leave the temple without picking one if all of the options are doom. I'm not sure whether the fix is to improve/remove them or to MAKE you take one

Finally won a round. I suppose it doesn’t really count because I had a modded fire wizard start, but I ditched the oil wand after the ice caves because I had homing + cross + damage field, which just annihilates everything in a couple shots. Fire immunity is still ridiculously useful though, because there are so many robots that just explode into a sea of burning oil

Ambaire posted:While the dev is at it, let us also pick up toxic barrels and explosive crates. This is a really good idea. You'd be able to use explosives to get to most places in the mines, but enemy HP scaling and limited inventory slots would keep it from getting overpowered later on

Charm on toxic sludge would pair well with a cloud of the stuff, and seems like it would be too situational to be useful otherwise. I've never found both of those on the same run

Lightning works really well, and you're likely to stumble across at least one copy of it by that point. If you can project some lingering spell (crosses, clouds) with Damage Field attached to it, you basically have a win button. Situationally, you can plink them from behind cover with a light saber, preferably one with a trigger on it that can be used to inject a bunch of poo poo through a wall

Those gas caverns are rare, but they are a feature that'll generate occasionally in the fungus caves. I'm not sure if the gas behavior is intentional, though. You could go in there and pluck out that bottle and it'll leave an outline in the gas. Similarly, acid sometimes seems to get stuck in puddles in stop eating through the floor for a while, then pick back up

Lately I just wanna skip down to the second level and tackle it with spells swapped on the starter wands because I'm sick to death of the mines, but I know I'd survive way longer with the extra 100-200 HP fully exploring the first level usually nets

A good basic strategy is to beeline down to the next Holy Mountain, clear out anything in the immediate vicinity, then explore from there, returning when you get low on health
