Oh god. Some more news..... Now my Epiphany user has a "cursed soul" which seems to be a -16 permanent mood debuff. I really hope it fades.

Update on Epiphany trial.


The mood debuff has gotten worse the more I use the weapon. I figured that the mod dev wouldn't just put a weapon in that ruins pawns, especially a good weapon that baits you into giving it to your best pawn. So I sent my fighter out to murder animals, in the hope that that the epiphany effect has some big pay off.

Eventually, the pawn gets a +200 mood buff where she figures out that she is a game character, but she also goes berserk and murders everything and suffers a heart attack.

Now I cannot stop her because she has a god tier weapon, doesn't experience pain and is super fast.

I am sad.

The berserk ended and Lynn still has the +200 mood buff. This might be okay.

OH god. Never mind. Lynn killed a mad rabbit on her way back to base, and immediately goes back to berserk mode D:

Don't use Epiphany. Its a trap.

The Epiphany is an... odd weapon. It can ABSOLUTELY turn the tides of battle, but probably at the cost of the viability of the pawn that's using it. I'd recommend giving it to a more disposable pawn if at all possible, if you're gonna use it. If the permanent effects are a bit too annoying though, it's always possible to dev-mode away the hediff the Epiphany provides.

That being said... it's more of a little easter egg weapon than anything. It's incredibly rare, and I'm actually surprised that people have found it so far! Hopefully it was a fun little surprise.

What is it supposed to look like? I gave it to my warrior clad in adamantium armor with a beserker chip and Ancients powers. Now that they have gone insane(sane?), I am relieved that I installed the chip last min cause ancients self control power was overpowered by epiphany! Now they lie in a cryptosleep waiting for a fool to release her.

Is it supposed to not have a texture? It's just a four squares of black and purple.

The texture in itself is a joke. As a "weird glitch item", I made it look like a missing texture. Figured it'd cause a bit of confusion, but honestly it's fun. A bit of "wtf" for when someone's opening too many lootboxes.
