“You actually like it in there?”
“Of course! It’s quiet and the door conceals me from any potential enemies roaming the halls waiting to be shot!”
“Well… I’m glad. But I’ve gotta go now.”
“Oh, okay. See you later, Ricki.”
“…Wait. Coccyx, you remembered my name!”
“Why wouldn’t I remember your name?”
“We’re friends, aren’t we?”
“By the way, do you want me to take those shackles off?”
“What shackles?”
Coccyx has gained the Bow Mastery ability!
Huh, that’s on par with Kamau’s room upgrade. Still tied to consumables.
Ricki: Group hug
Kamau: Required weapon goes from dagger to one-handed multi-type +3 weapon.
Lara: Bonus damage when using the ability no-one wants to use. Much better now that it’s merely blood magic with temporary costs.
Macadamia: Can leave the dungeon early. (Ended up meeting a clear condition early, more useful than it sounded)
Lohk: Minor healing for Ricki when using potions (consumable items we don’t want to use)
Botanya: Can die
Coxxyx: +2 ranged bow damage, on top of +1
Ix: No room
Amadeusz: Bonus HP for otherwise-ambiguous manor upgrades, which led to getting bonus bond
There’s a dip in the middle there, but these have generally been good.
I argue Botanya is “sacrifice for friends survival”. We wont ever want to use it, but its something better than just death.
Lohk also get the Lohk’s Cane upgrade, letting her copy a carried wand or staff twice per dungeon. Which is really good.
Ix doesn’t have room? Wasn’t the ‘magical chamber with runes’ adaptable to be a room for him?
edit: ah yes.. he doesn’t have a room YET, so we don’t know anything about it. Pls ignore me xD
Love coccyx progress! It may be baby steps, but its still progress
Hrm, I wonder if Coccyx would have remembered all kinds of stuff better, the more we would have taken him to dungeons.
I guess we’ll never find out.
