This run is actually a lot of fun. I’m not worrying about getting to level X so I can use item Y before turn Z or worrying about pulls or stats or anthing else really. I think part of that is because I’m not trying to go fast, just get the run done (the difference is subtle)
On day 2, I was able to:
Get Liver of steel. This was kind of weird because I was using stinkpalm on the hot monsters, and then the sub bosses aren’t hot aligned, and were one shotting me. They seemed to get easier the more that I lost to them, so that was kind of nice.
Killed a faxed lobsterfrogman. I wasn’t sure if I was going to pull off enough damage here. I’ve been collecting ice shards from the shower to make the ice cap and had a few spares. A shard of ice and Drunken baby style was enough to net me a barrel of gun powder at level 7. I feel like this is pretty big. At best, I’d get +10% combat from the hound and a reoderant, giving an expected 5ish turns saved per barrel.
Got Fruit stand access. Not really a big deal, shored and yellow rayed a hippy. I still don’t have the 3500 meat to buy the cocktail kit +skill, so there isn’t much going on here. Turngen from booze is pretty crappy, although it’ll probably be just as bad (or worse) for Bad Moon.
Got Ramen cubes. I don’t know how far these will go, but I spent turns looking for a scroll while sniffing hellions. I think I have 6 or 8 extra, which should last 3 or 4 more days. As I’m on day 2, expecting a 7+ day run, i quite clearly do not have enough to last until the end. Most “Awesome” level foods require spices and herbs. My next best options are Goat Cheese Pasta or settling for a “good” tier level food.
Tomorrows itinerary is doing the pirates and unlocking the second floor of Spookyraven’s manor. I hope I’m not pushing myself too hard.
