00:17 <PinkieShy> :(

00:17 <PinkieShy> Insomia hit me again.

00:17 <PinkieShy> 7am getting to sleep finally last night.

00:18 <PinkieShy> The room felt hotter than usual so i had 1 small fan and a giant fan going in the room making a whirlpool of air in the room which helped a little..

00:26 <Lumindia> https://i.imgur.com/uKTEap6.jpg

00:26 * Lumindia laughs. "I'm in danger!"

00:26 <Cepheid> Spooky.

00:26 <Lumindia> it's a blood mood

00:26 <Lumindia> moon*

00:27 <Cepheid> I figured.

00:27 <Cepheid> You'll be fine.

00:29 <Lumindia> I doubt it

00:29 <Lumindia> The skeletons fire three times as fast and can practically snipe you

00:29 <Cepheid> While I appreciate the literal translation of the name of this monster, it's description implies that the Japanese name should have been kept.

00:29 <Lumindia> creepers now SPRINT at you and have a shorter fuse

00:29 <Lumindia> Spiders inflict slowness on you

00:29 <Lumindia> zombies inflict hunger and can leap at you

00:29 <Cepheid> "White Fox:  This white-furred beast's age can be deduced from the number of it's tails.  Some live for centuries."

00:30 <Lumindia> https://i.imgur.com/s6xaskd.png

00:30 <Lumindia> each of those red dots is an enemy

00:30 <Cepheid> Yep.

00:30 <Cepheid> I'm familiar with the map mod.

00:30 <Cepheid> You'll be fine.  o3o

00:31 <Lumindia> SPIDERJOCKEY! Abandon ship! Abort mission!

00:32 <Lumindia> D:

00:32 <Lumindia> I have no armor

00:33 <Cepheid> Simple solution:  Open door to house.  Go inside house.  Close door.  Block door with bookshelves.  Huddle in corner, crying until the event ends.

00:34 <Cepheid> Huzzah teleporter maze!

00:37 <Cepheid> What kind of cruel and uncaring God would create such a monster!? https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/etrian/images/d/d7/EO3Sickwood.png/revision/latest?cb=20120520005352

00:37 <Cepheid> Uhm.  Hello there... Let's count them tails.

00:38 <Cepheid> ... Kyuubi-no-Kitsune.  Oh dear.

00:40 <Cepheid> So far, it hasn't really demonstrated much.  Strong physical attack, and a skill that causes TP usage to be doubled.  Beyond that?  So far I've been smacking it around.

00:40 <Cepheid> Aaaand there's the kicker.

00:40 <Cepheid> Divine Storm.  Deals electrical damage to the entire party.

00:41 <Cepheid> Easily dealt with.  Storm Amulets for all, plus Volt Mist!

00:43 <Cepheid> Or, it would be if I wasn't falling asleep thanks to the sedative. o3o

00:48 <Cepheid> Heh.

00:48 <Cepheid> So, in EO1 and EO1U, there's a monster, called the Depth Dancer.

00:49 <Cepheid> It's widely considered to be the deadliest enemy outside of the true final boss, in the entire game.

00:49 <Cepheid> It's Japanese name is much more interesting.  "That Which Flutters in The Abyss"

00:50 <Lumindia> so it's basically the WarMech of EO1?

00:52 <Cepheid> Pretty much.

00:53 <Cepheid> In the original game, it moves two steps for every one the player takes.  When you encounter it, it always blindsides(Gets first attack) you, and it has party-wide damaging skills, some of them reaching into the 500+ range.

00:53 <Lumindia> so it's just a matter of WHEN it catches you"

00:54 <Cepheid> In Untold, it moves three paces for your one, and if it lines up with you, immediately changes direction and charges you.  If it misses, it'll keep going in that direction.  That said, in battle, it's much the same, only it can summon enemies that can turn your characters to stone.

00:54 <Cepheid> Also, because of the whole "If it misses you, it keeps going", it'll hit walls, despawn, and respawn elsewhere.

00:55 <Cepheid> Repeating the process indefinitely until it kills you.

00:56 <Cepheid> My experiences with it were a nightmare.

00:56 <Cepheid> It appears exclusively on two floors.  One of them the very bottom of the labyrinth.  So, in simpler words, when you're spending time trying to get to the true final boss.  It is unbelievably relieving when you finally get to it and unlock the shortcut to it.

00:57 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/77GFu0R.gifv

00:58 <Cepheid> Anyways, I'ma head upstairs to bed now. o3o

01:11 <Cepheid> Heh.

01:12 <Lumindia> it's basically one of those silly card games along the lines of Exploding Kittens

01:12 <Lumindia> probably great fun at conventions

01:15 <Cepheid> Yep.  And of course it is Tomska.

06:12 * ConfusionRift takes out "The Shredder".

06:14 * Ali flops over ConfusionRift with a burst 3 and twin flak

06:21 <Finwe> Zwillingflugabwehrkanone?

06:21 * ConfusionRift flops as well, then patpats Ali.

06:21 <ConfusionRift> ...eh?

06:21 <Ali> So I just got the most broken FTL ship

06:21 <Ali> Burst 3 and two flaks

06:21 <Ali> And a pre igniter

06:22 <Finwe> FlaK is the abbreviation for Flugabwehrkanone.

06:22 <Ali> No, flak is for the flak cannon Finwe

06:22 <Finwe> Also known as anti-aircraft gun in English.

06:23 <Finwe> I have FTL, but I've never played it.

06:23 <Finwe> It might have been free on GOG at some point, or at least very cheap.

06:24 <Finwe> "Flak weapons fire waste debris in a shotgun-like blast. Each flak projectile temporarily removes a shield layer. Once all shields are down, flak can hit rooms and deal system, hull, and crew damage."

06:24 <Finwe> I see.

06:24 <ConfusionRift> "The name applies to a series of related guns, the first one officially called the 8.8 cm Flak 18, the improved 8.8 cm Flak 36, and later the 8.8 cm Flak 37. Flak is a contraction of German Flugzeugabwehrkanone, meaning 'aircraft-defense cannon'-"

06:24 <ConfusionRift> He ain't wrong.

06:24 <Ali> Finwe, Get this

06:25 <Ali> The burst laser 3 does 5 shots after 20 seconds

06:25 <Ali> And the flak well, it shoots junk at them

06:25 <Ali> The weapon pre igniter means I get a free full charge when entering a system

06:25 <Finwe> That's what I figured out from what it says in FTL wiki.

06:25 <Ali> So I get to alpha strike them before they can ever get a shot off.

06:26 <Finwe> Hmm, I should iron my tailcoat and shirt for the dinner toninght.

06:26 <ConfusionRift> Okay, two options for me. 1) Get a really heavy damaging gun and try to fight the nasty trio and the big space worm. 2) Abuse the Shredder and use the lag to my advantage, at the cost of taking forever with that miserable damage.

06:27 <ConfusionRift> Or make an actual arena, which I haven't done to this point. -_-

12:28 <Cepheid> https://www.cbs17.com/news/local-news/wake-county-news/death-of-apex-man-found-bloody-wrapped-in-christmas-lights-not-suspicious-officials-say/ The story is wild.

12:28 <Cepheid> Son came home, found cat dead in bathroom, wrapped it in plastic and threw it into the freezer.  He then found the father down the stairs in the basement, cut him loose from the lights, and was then requested a blanket.  He gave his father the blanket and left him there?

12:29 <Cepheid> He then up and called his girlfriend to give him a ride, and came back the next day to find his father dead.

12:29 <Lumindia> okay, not nearly as crazy as I thought... but why would you not call 911 for him?

12:30 <Cepheid> See, that's the problem.  All of the circumstances are too unbelievable.

12:31 <Lumindia> falling and landing on the cat I can believe, that doesn't seem too strange

12:31 <Cepheid> He didn't fall and land on the cat.

12:32 <Cepheid> The cat was found dead in the bathroom.

12:32 <Schism> That's...

12:32 <Lumindia> "As he was falling, he killed the cat by falling over and landing on it. The man may have suffered a stroke, officials said."

12:33 <Cepheid> I missed that part.

12:33 <Cepheid> But that doesn't explain a lot of the rest, or why the kid just.. yeah.

12:34 <Cepheid> Well, I guess if the cat was injured, it could have dragged itself to the bathroom if it was still alive initially.

12:35 <Cepheid> In any case..

12:35 <Cepheid> ... How is it that I have not unlocked the Storm Amulet yet?

12:37 * Cepheid grabs the Harvest Gang to go do a quest right quick.

12:42 <ADragonDreaming> ...why the flip the kid didn't call emergency when he found his dad at the bottom of the stairs?

12:42 <Cepheid> That's partly why people find it interesting that it's not a suspicious death.

12:44 <ADragonDreaming> Well, I can believe that the kid didn't kill the dad, the "got entangled in lights and fell down" makes sense, but I'm wondering what's going on with the kid that he made these grievous errors in judgement.

12:49 * Cepheid does a harvesting quest, wherein guilds spend time in the fourth stratum to see who can harvest the most. Returns with a full pack.

12:49 <Schism> Lessee. Retainers are approaching 80, finally.

12:51 <Cepheid> There we are, won by a landslide.  Guilds can only carry a maximum of 60 items.  o3o

12:51 <Cepheid> And the next highest guild, Pale Horse, which is a high-ranking guild, only collected 45. o3o

12:52 <Cepheid> Right then, back to the fourth stratum.  I need a drop from there for an item so I can kill the Divine Judge, a FOE with a special appearance and probably deserving of a more appropriate name.

12:52 <Cepheid> https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/etrian/images/f/fd/Divine_Judge.png/revision/latest?cb=20170810211012 Divine Judge.  Who knows what this is!? :D

12:56 <Cepheid> Arcanists are strong in this game.  Stronger than I remember.

12:56 <Cepheid> I just had Ali, our resident Arcanist, hit an enemy for over 1000 damage.

12:59 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, Dreamer is getting distressingly dangerous.

12:59 <Cepheid> For a heavily-armored tank, he's capable of one-shotting many enemies now.

13:04 <Cepheid> Dreamer's stats:  553 HP, 137 TP(Anemic, but sufficient for his needs), 35 STR, 37 TEC, 58 VIT(More than half the max, 99), 34 AGI, 46 LUC.  288 ATK, 401(! That's end-game EO5 armor strength almost) DEF.  Level 55.

13:06 <Cepheid> He's crossed with a Ninja, so I have him learning that passive skill that makes normal attacks have a chance of causing instant death.  Once I get the Death hammer, I can combine this with a weapon that can inflict instant death for even greater shenanigans.

13:09 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, with Protect Order maxed out, and Royal Veil maxed out, Cepheid's restoring a total of ~115 HP/turn to the front line.

13:09 <Cepheid> I wonder if the Monk's Qi Healing synergizes with those skills.

13:10 * Jackie pets Fn

13:18 <Cepheid> There appears to be a small strip here where I encounter the desired monster constantly.

13:18 <Cepheid> I encountered 8 of them in a row.

13:42 * Cepheid wanders through the Porcelain Forest.

13:43 <LibrarianofHope_> i have 3 confugurations of a female bounty hunter i could use

13:43 <LibrarianofHope_> not sure which one fits

13:44 <LibrarianofHope_> nice, antihero or border monster

13:47 <Cepheid> Heh.

13:47 <LibrarianofHope_> the techpriest is easy to make, but hard to write

13:48 <LibrarianofHope_> im not used to  using the rules of others

13:50 <Cepheid> Bah.  I need to figure out how to map these teleports using the limited set of icons and colours I have.

13:50 <LibrarianofHope_> imma nap, be right back

13:50 <Cepheid> Currently I use red tiles to indicate the teleporters, and yellow tiles to indicate the destination, but this doesn't quite work if multiple destinations line up in the same row or column as a teleporter.

13:50 *** Parts: LibrarianofHope_ (uid273841@Pony-u8rgp9.charlton.irccloud.com) ("")

13:52 <Cepheid> Hello, Kyuubi-no-Kitsune.

13:52 * Cepheid murders it this time around.

13:54 <Cepheid> Or, ye know, not.

13:55 <Cepheid> 'Cause even with +++ resist to volt, this thing is still dealing ~400 damage to Dreamer.

14:00 <Cepheid> Much better.  3 damage per hit.

14:01 * Cepheid sighs. Retreats.

14:02 <Cepheid> It can cast a regenerate spell for 900 HP/turn, so I need metopons to remove that. o3o

14:12 <Cepheid> Whelp, that's one Kyuubi-no-Kitsune dead.  Does that mean I killed a god?

14:15 <Cepheid> Ah, okie.  There we are, a way to map out the teleporters.  The Torii have a sign on them that faces the direction they teleport.  Just put arrows and a red tile indicating the direction it teleports in, then place a destination marker.

14:19 <Cepheid> ...

14:19 <Cepheid> Yeah, there's the problem.

14:20 <Cepheid> Two warps on the same line, and they warp to points such that looking at them isn't viable.

14:21 <Cepheid> I have 22 icons and a note I can set.  Since the note is not immediately visible, I think...

14:21 <Cepheid> Place an icon next to each warp, and place the same icon next to it's destination.

14:27 <Cepheid> Mmm.  That's a nice hammer.  Addle Hammer.  Now I can make my weapons inflict confusion.

14:27 <Cepheid> I wonder if Nexus uses this game's forging concept.  It's the best version of it by far.

14:28 <Cepheid> EO5's version was nice, increasing the attack power each level, but this...  This allows you to CREATE.

14:36 <Cepheid> My dad's watching a show on a bus from Woodstock, which raises a question for me.

14:36 <Cepheid> What was it about Woodstock that made it such a significant piece of history?  It just strikes me as another concert, and yet..

14:55 <Cepheid> Floor B20F.  End of the line for the base story.

14:57 <Cepheid> Hot damn, the Divine Judge has a conditional drop.  That's gonna be a pain, as that thing is resistant to practically everything I throw at it.

14:58 <Schism> Gods, FINALLY.  Namitaro is now caught.

14:59 <Cepheid> FIshie from yesterday?

14:59 <Schism> Yup.

15:00 <Cepheid> Congratulations!

15:00 <Cepheid> Your patience and perseverence paid off

15:00 <Schism> Thanks.  o3o;  This time, it almost got away -- first one that I hooked snapped the line.

15:00 <Schism> And now, there are but three more big fish to catch in this series.

15:02 * Schism whispers, "kill me."

15:03 <Cepheid> Heh.

15:03 <Cepheid> Yeah, I feel that way about this stratum right now.

15:03 <Schism> Lessee.  Kuno the Killer has a window in 8 hours, Shonisaurus has a window in 15.

15:03 <Cepheid> The Divine Judges are the worst.  They patrol either horizontally or vertically depending on day or night time.

15:03 <Schism> Yeesh.

15:04 <Cepheid> They also seem to be resistant to everything.

15:04 <Cepheid> Fire, Ice, ~80-90 damage.  Thunder because it's maxed out, ~110.

15:04 <Cepheid> Physical attacks average around 70 to 80.

15:05 <Cepheid> And it has a pain-in-the-rear attack that dishes out multiple hits of lightning damage.  Enough that even with +++++ Volt resist, it deals about 400 damage to Dreamer.

15:05 <Cepheid> If he's provoked.

15:06 <Cepheid> Best bet is to use that amulet + a Volt Mist\

15:07 <Cepheid> The Mists greatly reduce elemental damage of a given type to all combatant

16:15 <Ali> Just cause I don't know everything about every magic card doesn't mean you should be a jerk about it..

16:15 <Ali> Also looks like Factorio might enter stable by next week if things go well

16:16 <Cepheid> Should've known I wouldn't be done with this stratum mechanic just yet.  Last floor has it back in actions.

16:17 <Ali> Yeah the whole you don't know this card?  You're an idiot and I'm done talking to you.

16:18 <ADragonDreaming> They will have very few friends that way. Sad.

16:18 <Cepheid> Yep.

16:21 <Ali> Also on a more positive note, I had the most broken ship in FTL last night

16:22 <Ali> Burst 3 laser and twin flak cannons.  Only used the burst 3 cause I found a weapons pre igniter.

16:22 <ADragonDreaming> nice

16:23 <Cepheid> Despite taking my meds this morning, I am irritable.  I'm not sure why.

16:23 <Ali> I almost always feel irritable and I don't know why either

16:24 <Cepheid> In my case I think it's just that I'm constantly being bothered by something.

16:24 <Cepheid> First, the fan.  Had to fix that.  Then my cat demanded attention and I gave him some, with lots of brushing.  He wandered off on his own.

16:25 <Cepheid> Then Tizzy came up, demanding attention and WILL NOT STOP HEADBUTTING ME.  I brushed her too and petted her, removing lots of loose fur and getting it all over myself.

16:25 <Cepheid> And now my dad's making ungodsly noise downstairs, and won't accept any help from me.

16:26 <Ali> That sounds like the tradition male I've got this syndrome going off there

16:26 <Ali> No matter how bad its going

16:26 <Ali> I got this

16:26 * Ali snuggles on the Cepheid

16:27 <Cepheid> The issue with my dad is only a problem because for the last week, since last Friday in fact(Not yesterday), my parents have been all "You're sick, don't do anything."

16:27 <Ali> Yeah, parents will do that

16:27 <Cepheid> I haven't done any housework in a week now, and I'm feeling like I'm just slacking off around here.

16:28 <Ali> Cepheid, I know this might not help but I'll say it.  You need to rest to get well again

16:28 <Ali> I know that mindset of feeling like you're not doing your share of the work, but sometimes you'll just need to take that time off to recover.

16:29 <Cepheid> Yes, yes.

16:30 <Cepheid> Fortunately most of the symptoms are almost gone.  Coughing's reduced to a bit of coughing here and there every few minutes.  Hearing's still wonky, and my face and head still feel like there's someone doing a russian dance on it.

16:30 <Cepheid> Also, random off-topic, but I just looked outside.  My neighbours walk their cats, this is a known fact.

16:30 <Cepheid> Well, apparently the cat keeps pace with them.

16:33 <Ali> Used to have a cat do that

16:33 <Ali> She'd follow us when going for a walk

16:34 <Ali> Cepheid, if and when Factorio server go back up, I'd like to maybe focus on defense and train set up

16:34 * Ali squeaks and hides, thunderstorm

16:35 <Cepheid> This one was on a leash.

16:35 <Cepheid> Apparently they leash-train their cats.

16:35 <Ali> That's pretty impressive

16:35 <Ali> We tried to leash our cat

16:35 <Ali> You don't take it for a walk

16:35 <Ali> It goes for a drag

16:36 <Cepheid> Yeah, it helps if you leave it on inside for a while.  Eventually the cat will have to get up and move with it.

16:36 <Cepheid> After that, start leashing it, and bringing it outside, but stay close to home and keep an eye on the cat's behaviour.

16:42 <Ali> Wow post game already?

16:43 <Ali> Or is that also another fifty hours of grnding?

16:44 <Schism> That's quite the array of sirens going on downtown.

16:44 <Cepheid> Probably another 30 or so hours.

16:44 <Cepheid> Since it involves killing superbosses and ultrabosses and various other entities.

16:44 <Cepheid> Possibly a NG+.

16:45 * ADragonDreaming is blaying Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition

16:45 <Cepheid> ... Okay, I was gonna say game.  Turns out I drew an entire region of the map offset by 1.

16:45 <ADragonDreaming> *playing

16:45 <Cepheid> Which is mildly annoying as I have to shift a bunch over by 1.

16:48 <ADragonDreaming> Cavalier with 18's in strength, dex, con, and charisma, 8 in Int, 13 in Wis. Then there are these tomes you find that increase an attribute by 1, so now he's 19 con and 19 cha, and by end of game will be 19 str, 9 int, 19 dex, and 16 wis as well. No point in using them on any of the NPCs, they don't

16:48 <ADragonDreaming> carry those stat boosts over into sequel.

16:48 <ADragonDreaming> He's basically a lightning bruiser at the moment.

16:49 <Ali> Also thunderstorm sooooo

16:49 * Ali squeaks and hides under somepony

16:51 <ADragonDreaming> Also, because Cavalier, he's immune to poison. Which is the primary threat that certain enemies have (spiders, hobgoblin elites, wyverns)

18:03 <Cepheid> Curse was a bit trickier, but I got it.

18:10 <Cepheid> Alas, I don't think I'll be getting that one from the Divine Judge anytime soon.  It's a pain in the rear to fight, and a pain in the rear to calculate when it's gonna die, as a result.

19:00 <ADragonDreaming> if most of your power drain is to them, that probably indicates you're managing power consumption pretty well with all your other things, so I figure you're good.

19:11 <Cepheid> Mind, she had to be killed.  The Calamity of Armoroad separated her from her brother, the then-king of Armoroad.  Given that the king himself has eternal life, and she *REALLY* wanted to see him again, she made a bargain with the Deep Ones.

19:12 <Cepheid> In other words, eternal life, in return for becoming one of them.  Not the brightest of moves.

19:12 *** Joins: HyperDash (HyperDash@Pony-obvko9.wa.comcast.net)

19:12 <ADragonDreaming> Regicide is fine by me.

19:13 <Cepheid> Arguably, it was a mercy-killing, so... *Shrugs*

19:15 <Cepheid> Also, fun note.  I'm not sure the two should ever meet.  Besides the princess being a Deep One, the Celestial King has lost a portion of his memory in return for his immortality.

19:15 <Cepheid> He doesn't remember the Princess as his sister.

19:16 <Cepheid> Hmmm!  That's a nice item.  Deep City Medal.  +100 TP, +5 to all stats.

19:18 <Cepheid> Mmm.  The Deep Princess drops the item for the (second?) best armor for the Sovereign class.

19:19 <Cepheid> Mmhm.  Game unlocks the sixth stratum automatically.  I haven't done a NG+, so I wonder how that whole setup even works then.  Is there a barrier?  Is the boss impossible without dealing with the Porcelain Offering?

19:20 <Cepheid> That said, first things first.  To floor 10.

19:21 <Cepheid> Nothing changes with him.  Okie then.  Onto the next stratum.

19:26 <Cepheid> Cyclopean Haunt, floor 21.

19:29 <Ali> Man, the more I scan this map Cepheid, the more it sucks

19:29 <Cepheid> Heh.

19:29 <Ali> Finding more bugs than resources

19:30 <Cepheid> Schism, ADragonDreaming.  Thoughts, should I try to go after the true final boss on this run, before doing NG+?

19:31 <Ali> And that map is dead to me

19:31 <Cepheid> Heh, new map time!

19:31 <Ali> Don't mind finding the two bug base

19:31 <Ali> But right behind it

19:31 <Ali> 10 bug base

19:31 <Ali> That is by far the most mineral stripped map I've ever come across

19:32 <Ali> Had tons of oil. but lacked iron and coal

19:36 <Cepheid> Oh no.

19:36 <Cepheid> Monsters that can move party members around.

19:36 <ADragonDreaming> Does the true final boss give you a thing useful in NG+?

19:38 <Cepheid> No idea.  What I do know though is that there is storyline stuff that can only be done through doing a NG+.

19:38 <Schism> Usually, the strongest katana in the game.

19:38 <Cepheid> I mean, aside from that yeah.

19:38 <Cepheid> It gives you the item to make a strong katana, usually.

19:38 <Cepheid> But more than that, this game's weird with it's story.

19:40 <Cepheid> Basically, along one side, you get a piece of something related to the "Porcelain Offering"

19:40 <Cepheid> Along the other side, you get another similar item.  These are the only key items retained between NG+ runs.

19:40 <Cepheid> They're used to unlock an area in the fourth stratum, that cannot be unlocked any other way.

19:41 <Schism> Adra: Turns out that lasers don't work on a yeti.  Who knew?

19:46 <Cepheid> In any case, as far as I can tell, the game lets me go into the sixth stratum.  The game's pretty certain I won't win.  It also allows me to challenge two superbosses.

19:46 <Schism> Hmmmm.  Perhaps save those bosses for the NG+, then, when you have that additional class to work with.

19:47 <Cepheid> It strikes me that the game seems to be set up in such a way that a NG+ is necessary, in some manner.

19:47 <Cepheid> So yeah.

19:47 <Cepheid> I'm gonna complete the quests I have access to, then do a NG+.

19:47 <Schism> Huh.  o3o  https://blog.xkcd.com/2019/08/16/serena-versus-the-drones/

19:48 <Cepheid> I saw that.

19:53 <ADragonDreaming> Schism: aye

19:53 <ADragonDreaming> He's gonna need to try a little.

19:54 <Cepheid> Finally, mother's awake.  I can shave and shower.

19:55 * Cepheid goes off to do that. o3o

20:42 <Cepheid> So the first two superbosses are... a Sea Anemone, and the Kraken.

20:45 * Cepheid gets 3 Formaldehyde from that one quest. "... For such a stingy shopkeeper, when she wants to repay someone, she overdoes it."

20:47 <Cepheid> Hum, that's one other thing I should do before NG+.

20:47 <Cepheid> Formaldehyde everything that I don't have the conditionals for.

20:47 <Cepheid> Though, I think I can get away with some conditional cases.

20:49 <Cepheid> Nope.  Not strong enough for the First Turn of Narmer case.

20:49 <Cepheid> Oh, wait, it's one-man party.

20:50 <Cepheid> I can do that with the Zodiac easy-peasy.

20:53 <Cepheid> Ketos is the one that's in-one-turn.  Yeah, I can't do that with this team.

20:53 <Cepheid> Single Formaldehyde should suffice.

20:56 <Cepheid> Sorta useless.  No buccaneers on the team, but it's a high-level armor for one.

21:02 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, Gatekeeper's head got me... high-rank armor for Arcanist.  Useful.  So that's two bits of armour that are high-level that two members can use.

21:08 <Cepheid> And that there is one of the high-end weapons. o3o

21:11 * Cepheid whistles. "If I use coupons, the three items I got will cost me... 401,900en."

21:14 <Cepheid> ... @3@;

21:14 <Cepheid> The rare mining drop from harvesting is worth 4500, and I get a LOT of them with this team.

21:22 <Cepheid> And now for a bit more questing, because bosses take time to respawn, and there's a few conditionals to still get.

21:44 <Cepheid> ..

21:44 <Cepheid> The Horseplay skill on Farmers is hilarious.

21:44 <Cepheid> "Nighty just stands around for an hour."  I imagine Nighty just staring off into space for a full hour, and the rest of the crew is like "Hey, anyone home in there?"

22:11 <Lumindia> \o/

22:13 <Cepheid> All quests done.  I'll hunt down the missing items in NG+.

22:13 <Cepheid> Especially since NG+ doesn't lock you out of previous side-specific bosses.

22:15 <Cepheid> ...

22:15 <Cepheid> So NG+ seems to treat the "newcomers" as if they were a part of the original guild, and even comment accordingly.  Doesn't explain the storyline stuff, though.

22:27 * DashedRainbows does the pony flop

22:36 <Cepheid> Oh gods, good.  They don't have you re-do all the requests.

23:10 <Cepheid> Heh.  We regenerate so much HP while walking that I can walk over damage panels and it has no effect on me.

23:24 <ADragonDreaming> you know what would be fun some time

23:24 <ADragonDreaming> like instead of just playing Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, stream it for people to laugh at or be impressed by

23:24 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.

23:24 <ADragonDreaming> Although it's usually more entertaining if there is panic

23:25 <ADragonDreaming> I tend not to panic

23:26 <Cepheid> I do, but not with those kinds of games.

23:29 <Cepheid> One hour, 15 minutes, already 12 floors down.

23:37 <Cepheid> Another stratum bites the dust.
