Two more noob question.

[pinback]

1. Is there any way to say "pick up all except corpse"?

2. Why when you go past some stairs up, for instance, does it sometimes say "you pass a stairs up, stairs up, stairs up." Bug?

Thanks.

I heard about that, but what exactly does it do? (text's too long to read completely :s)

I'm not sure why perople don't actually point out what the tme cube does, and just links to a websiite. :P

In game, ti does literally nothing, in real life, it's some rambling mess of a website about something. Personally, I believe it was a joke webpage made by people who were drunk.

Looks a lot like randomly-generated books in CoQ.

Update. I recently found a mental aggregator. What does it do? I can't try it out because of antlers.

[THANKS OBAMA]

Mental Aggregator? Do you mean the Ganglionic Teleprojector? Because if thats the case that's an item that allows you to Dominate Monster on Robots, best used by True-Kin to let them get into Minion Shenanigans like an Esper can.

Also the Time Cube completely stops time for like 20-25 turns according to the Wiki. Basically it's like you just turn the quickness of all creatures around you to 0 for a bunch of turns. I don't see how it'd ever be worth it to use one instead of holding on to it to get Polygel and Duplicate it repeatedly for Metacrystals.

[davidb11]

That's weird, the time cube shouldn't be doing much of anything, since it's a joke item.
I don't know if I'd trust the wiki on it.

[Aquillion]

The wiki also tries to insist that the Ceremonial Vibrokhopesh isn't that great for most characters, which... does not reflect my experiences with it.

EDIT: Just tested it with a wish, though. The Time Cube does indeed seem to stop time. That's interesting. Sadly, thrown items don't hang in mid air until time resumes.

[davidb11]

Alright. Fair enough. That's kind of neat that it does that.
Used for one of those "OH CRAP!" moments. :)

No, it's Mental Aggregator. A cone made of foil.

.....

Does... Does it protect your thoughts from being read? That item sounds hilarious and I'd totally play a club wielding maniac with stupidly low Int while wearing that. Problem is I've never seen the thing before.

Maybe it's supposed to protect you from Sunder Mind. There are no other mental attacks and you get it by the time Sightless way cultists are not even slightly dangerous.

[Aquillion]

Sightless Way cultists are only harmless because they have such a low level Sunder Mind. I don't think there are any enemies yet that use Clairvoyance + high-level Sunder Mind to killmurder you from across the map, but if there ever are, having some way to defend against them will be important.

(I assume they'd be in the Chrome Pyramid level of ridiculous lolno optional bosses, since many characters just wouldn't be able to fight back - especially if they also had high-level Teleportation to run away.)

[THANKS OBAMA]

I keep reusing my same esper build which requires evil twin.

As we all know espers are made of tissue paper even if they start with 18 Toughness. Yeah that bastard is incredibly scary and ended a few runs if I changed map without being full health/all cooldowns. Oh and not carrying ubernostrum because they seem to use them, but not salves before you can shotgun mindblast them.

Now I just murder him with my time dilation because AI has this unstoppable need to teleport right beside you for their first move, and if I see "You sense an evil presence." I can just cast Time Dilation and he can't do anything because he spent his first move teleporting beside me.

[dbennett88]

out of curiosity, having never taken evil twin myself, about how often does he seem to show up?

[THANKS OBAMA]

It feels completely random. Sometimes it never shows up before you get killed by something else, sometimes it shows up again and again. Its made me play really conservatively or just follow paths I've set if it does show up and I need to run. I've had a few deaths where I ran towards the closest exit which was a new map and that just led to another one of them popping up and having my brains splattered all over.

Once you figure out how they work though it's probably one of the easiest negative mutations to take because you can deal with it every time, it just prioritizes certain abilities EVERY SINGLE TIME for some reason.
