I just applied under the name “certainsome1”
haha, yeah I’m just finishing up a bad moon up myself, when I tried to do the entryway, I realized that I needed a star starfish. And remember to open the first chest in the daily dungeon, and pray for a sprout.
Though I think there is a bad moon adventure that gives you a sprout. I wonder if there’s one that gives you anticheese.
Oh, god. I hadn’t even thought about what if I need, like, the goat for the tower. I’ve taken my familiars for granted!
This is so frustrating - I hardly have any adventures, and I can’t get any more! I can’t get the barrel yet, I can’t summon noodles or reageants, and it wouldn’t matter if I did because I can’t scrape the cash together to buy an oven anyway.
Holy cow! Who’s “Schnookums”? Thanks for the meat infusion! (eww, “meat infusion”… .)
I was eating enchanted bean burritos until level 11 or so.
D’oh, I just realized I completely forgot about the grue egg omlet.
Also, Antinor, what class are you?
I am so not looking forward to my Bad Moon loop.
The Oxy loop will suck big enough, but the BM loop will be heinous.
I was amazed that my character was still there. I hadn’t played for almost three years! I showed up and had gifts waiting for me and everything. Of course, I’ve completely forgotten how to play…
Pastamancer. I made level 6 last night through running a few adventures through the hidden temple. (Jumps of 45-60 at a time is rather nice).
Finished all the guild leader quests and do somewhat decent in the graveyard. My moxie still seems low, so I’m having some trouble there. I got the first bit of the epic weapon put together, but get my ass handed to me at the Fun House.
ouch, starting as a caster is a bit tougher than the other types. Are you using hairspray? that + 15% moxie is pretty useful. Did you make yourself a volleyball? Extra stats per combat are good, though it sounds like a familiar that will help you in combat might be more useful. Are you casting spells or trying to bash with your weapon? If spells, then maybe a ghoul whelp might be a good idea, so you can blast away without going broke. Also, entangling noodles are pretty good.
Haven’t used the hairspray yet, thanks for the suggestion. I don’t know how to make a volleyball, so I’ll look at that tonight.
I’ve been mostly using a weapon because I’m getting more damage out of it than my spells right now. Meat management has been an issue, so my best spell so far is minor ray of something.
I totally heard this in a Jack Handy voice.
In my past two runs in BM as a myst class, I found that pretending to be a moxie class was much more effective than spell-slinging. Especially in terms of meat – I think I ended up with something like 70k meat at the end of my Sauceror run.
One good moxie weapon is the curdflinger: +3 moxie and delevels. All you need is a tenderizing hammer (or Innabox, of course), a meat stack, a crossbow string, dry noodles, and a bowl of cottage cheese.
'Kay. I recently ascended as a Disco Bandit and started over SC as a Sauceror. But I’ve been browsing the KoL forums and I got the impression that it’s better to skip SC and go straight to HC because SC permed skills aren’t available in HC anyway and the rewards are better. So my question is should I skip straight to HC next ascension and not do any normal runs?
Depends what you want to do ultimately. If you want to do SC, look up what HC rewards you want, get those, then do SC. If you want to do HC, go HC. If you want to do BM, then a SC lead in run is easiest (unless you can do a casual lead in, I’m not sure) If you aren’t sure, try one or two of each.
Personally, I do hardcore because softcore was boring. I know that some people put a lot of strategy into it and stuff, but to me it was boring, and anyway it seemed like a waste of time since your permed skills wouldn’t be there for you in hardcore, anyway.
However, in hardcore you’ll never be able to, say, save up a ton of money and buy out of print items and all. And a lot of people enjoy working on their mall stores and such, stuff you can’t do in hardcore. So it depends on what you really enjoy about the game. I did a softcore run a bit ago just for the variety, and was really pissed to find out that every time I went into my inventory it took forever to load everything! (One assumes people who are used to it have item management systems.) But it made it a real pain. To me there’s a lot of grinding in softcore, because you already have everything for a lot of the quests and then you still need to get to the next level. I find that in my casual brand of hardcore, generally unless I get lucky each quest takes me to the next level.
I just stuffed a couple of green beers into the clan stash if they will help anyone today. (Ran out of clovers so I could only make the two.)
Nitpick: BM lead-in runs must be cloverless and hardcore, so you can’t actually do that.
huh, didn’t know that.
I just applied to the clan. I’m “MissWhich” in-game.
I just started playing again after a hiatus of about a year and am extremely rusty.
