Yeah, I play with the On Diet challenge and I’ll still save my food for gardens since hunger is halved with the shadowmeld buff in effect.

Also for Clerics, it’s a good place to build up your tome charges.

You can constantly get surprised attacks with hit-and-run so it’s comparatively safe to hang around for food or artifact charges. About the only worry is blazing champions.

It’s made in Canada. But is it a product of Canada?

Blandfruit is also flammable. The first thing I do when I see one is to harvest it and put it on a nonflammable location.

I’m not getting the home feed problem. It loads up fine after I go back twice on the error.

Just to add, this occurs only if the poster’s home instance and instance of the post is a mismatch. When I made an edit on a Lemmy.ca instance, it went through fine. It’s only after I submitted an edit to a post on Lemmy.world that I was able to reproduce the reported bug.

EDIT: Tested and confirmed it’s also an issue with Lemmy.ml, so it’s not with Lemmy.world.

I’m not sure if it’s working but here are 2 exceptions to the new feature.

Unmatched, in water. But if you’re going that far you probably have a few aqua brews on hand. I wonder how Stasis would bring out a piranha; what if there is no water on sight, nearby?

You did bring up a good point about other allies. I almost never use a scroll of siren song because I never really needed an extra hand. But a Paladin with PoM is probably the most opportune time to take advantage of that scroll so I’ll play around with it.

Test4

I like being able to scoop up the sad ghost with Stasis. The teleportation and attack direction with Beaming Ray is also useful. Still need to put some points into Life Link and try it out. I wonder if this armor ability, and its spells, might need a buff later on to incentivize people to use it more. Even with the full entourage of sad ghost and the earthen guardian, I don’t see much benefit with PoM; in comparison to Trinity or AF. It’s not bad, it’s just not as good; in my opinion.

For the cleric I’m guessing it’s something like 50 or 100 turns after the last experience gain. I presumed the two were supposed to be under the same constriction, so once Hallowed Ground stopped producing unfurrowed grass, I wondered why RS kept going. Perhaps like you said, it may be because it’s much longer for RS, which I didn’t even know about.

Should bug reports be private messages on here rather than posts? Sometimes it may not be a bug and other players can chime in; like my report the other day. If it is a bug, a community post also gives awareness, which also nice.

It’s fixed in the latest beta. After you update, just toggle it back to Top in Comment Customizations, in Settings.

The bug occurs with it on or off. Had it off and enabling the option but the bug persisted, after toggling the default sort to Top.

EDIT: This is on the current beta.

I still haven’t incorporated FIMA into my challenges, still at 5, but I think an accessible combo like this can help build my experience with FIMA on. But yeah, I imagine with 9 challenges or around thereabouts, this would simply be an option in a wide slew of tools that would need to be employed to survive.

I prefer the monk and like using meditate but did not know about that combo. Will have to try it out next time.

Personally, I think balancing the potential is future-proofing because sooner or later, exploits will be adopted. But in reality, oftentimes a wait and see approach is used when there’s a lack of current data to indicate an issue.

Yeah, I forgot about that. I just remember there were some pertinent parts and quoted it.

Dev comments in their plan for this year has relevant points that I’ll quote here.

Halls Quest

While I don’t want to make the game overly long, a bit more gameplay at the tail end of the game is sorely needed to give players a bit more time with finished builds and time to make use of armor abilities. I have a few ideas for interesting quests that could test an endgame character.

Alt Paths?

Another common request is to have more dungeon floors, but just adding more risks making the game too long. An alt path could offer new environments and enemies without making the game directly longer. This would be a huge time commitment though, so I’d only really consider it when ShatteredPD is otherwise finished.

Endless Mode

Some form of endless mode is a very common request. This partly ties in to the last region of the game being the shortest, but also there’s just a desire for players to see how far they can get with strong character builds. I have a few loose ideas for how endless might work, but want to focus on other things like new quests first.

Toxic gas feels out of place. Corrosive gas has a DOT and Cleanse will remove. It seems like toxic gas doesn’t get dealt by Cleanse for technical/programming reasons rather than thematically. Toxic gas could become a DOT and be inline with corrosive gas. Poison is a DOT so I think toxic gas being a 1 turn DOT wouldn’t be a stretch. Now that I think about it, toxic gas is like the only one without a status effect.

Ah, I see.

In that case, maybe having that part as a separate sentence and saying hits from allies, wands, and artifacts can benefit/take advantage of the spell may make it less confusing.

Cleanse removes the the aflame effect and that deals direct damage. But I guess that has a personal status while the gas doesn’t have one for Cleanse to nullify. Purity potions kinda muddy things since that will negate poison gas and I expected Cleanse could too since in some ways Cleanse is superior.

Regarding Radiance, maybe I didn’t explain it well. The mobs that were hit were not technically visible to my character due to the darkness of the level. On level 22, your vision is reduced by 1 due to level darkness. When I used Radiance, the mobs were within my normal vision if there wasn’t any darkness but my character couldn’t actually see or target them before Radiance.
