Poem of Fiery Rime and Perfect Time Crystal question

[iLXeNk]

Is it even possible to obtain these? I have been doing non-stop runs with Stanza of Frost looking for Stanza of Flames from the Curse item vendor and have never seen it show up.

One run I managed to pick up a Wander's Mechanism, so I had both that and the Stanza of Frost but never saw either the Stanza of Flames or the Volatile Gemstone.

Has anyone managed to collect these at the same time and if so does anything special happen? Really interested to know. Post photos if possible.

Wow I asked and I actually managed to make the Perfect Time Crystat. It increases Signature damage (from Wanderer's Mechanism) and increases Charge Rate and Decay (from Volatile Gemstone). https://imgur.com/a/TM5ShaR picture evidence.

I have gotten the poem twice and i didnt start with the frost part on either run. I think there may be an increased chance that both appear in your run or none at all. the problems occur when you are forced to pick the cursed part up first. there have been more runs where I had the option to take the fire half and didnt do it only to have the frost half show up later in the run.

Yeah the Cursed side I definitely wouldn't want to pick up until after I was done with the ice level. Not interested in taking double ice damage haha. Was sort of hoping if I manage to make it I could have the potential to start the next run with it, sadly that was not the case.

I have acquired both and obtained the item once before, it becomes a non cursed item that gives water freeze chance and fire burn chance with no downside. However the item seems bugged as when I acquired it my flame basic went from causing burn all the time to never causing burn at all ever. So atm the cursed page on it's own is better (unless you get ice boss as 3rd area that is).

i figured it was a reference to a song of fire and ice and just a pop culture reference.

I've had horrible luck lately with the Cursed Vendor either not showing up, or just giving me garbage like the Spike Emergency Kit, Sharp Stylus, etc.
