Title: Spoiler/Wiki Random Artifact List?
Post by: The Buttery Lobster on January 20, 2008, 00:05
idk if the forum has one, or if it's a good thing. But I know I want it. So here's stuff I've found. If such a thread exists already feel free to lock this one. There's other stuff I've found but I haven't remembered to write it down.

Excluding reward artifacts, like the bmg (not really) or angel armor or longinus spear. only stuff you find randomly.

I've even found 'advanced' artifact items. Like the extended Blaster, which was awesome.

You had to make the poll-spoiling useless, didn't you... well I'll wait on what Kornel says, but seeing this I'll probably just post all I've found except super uniques on wiki :/

So I'm taking it does add to the firing/reload speed, then? Much?

A. idk what you mean by poll-spoiling, I don't really read the forums much.
B. if this has too much in spoilers, do whatever you need to do. Change the font invisible, delete the whole thing, whatever, but you might want to post a sticky about spoilers then. I just figured a list would be helpful, and I didn't want to post it in the wiki because I hadn't confirmed/got details on a lot of stuff.
C. I should also note that the stuff I post (and, I imagine, the stuff other people post) is only what I've found in game and figured out- i.e. I don't have anything besides stats and basic info on the items, because I don't have access to the code, and i'm not about to ask kornel to give me details about any items. In other words, the info I posted is fairly basic stuff in terms of learning the game mechanics and 'spoiling' the game.

Personally, considering that roguelikes don't really reward experimentation (Really, who's going to get to the very end of Nethack and go 'Wow, I might win for the first time here. But first I'll just see what happens if I offer the amulet to the wrong God...') what with perma-death and all, I support the posting of spoilers. Those who want to be spoiled can read them. Those who don't can choose not to. It'll save a frustrating situation like 'Oh, I wonder what 'R'eloading this plasma rifle do- ARGH I'M DEAD' from occurring.

yes, i figured something bad would happen when i used the trigun reload. I savescummed that game before I used it.

Malek made a poll "which unique weapon data would you want to be revealed first". Imagine that he's a Dad who bought his son a cool Xmas gift as a surprise and you found the hidden box few weeks ahead and unwrapped it already ;)

But those who post spoilers should use the handy

No it doesn't. The stats under weapons on the char screen are pure weapon stats.

Are Planeshift Boots a special item? I found those, but I didn't see a special message in the level I got them, and they didn't seem to do anything special.
Title: Re: Spoiler/Wiki Random Artifact List?
Post by: Malek Deneith on January 21, 2008, 17:25
Yes they are, you must have missed the message, and not all uniques have special properties - some just have higher stats. Anyway the uniques page on wiki is done now (just endning to fill in Hell Staff) - the only uniques that aren't up to full data are Anti-freak Jackal (Trivia: did you know that even Kornel didn't remember putting this into the game?) and Dragonslayer (You need to try harder :P)

OMFG! Now the code really grows tentacles...

Here's the news -- Anti-Freak Jackal DOES NOT EXIST! Neither in my code, neither in the SVN repository, nor in the wad file that can be downloaded... I believe you that you found it, because it would be too much of a coincidence -- I planned to enter a gun named like that too... But HOW THE HELL did it appear at Potman???

Potman, aren't you  perhaps one of the first few people that have downloaded the new release? Does AoDnD/AoPm work for you?

It's no coincidence: See, an awesome gun from an awesome manga will obviously add to the awesome of the game.

It didn't.

Got you all, didn't I?

All work fine. Well, DnD at least does, Pacifism I'ven't tried.

Well, you really got me :D. Because Malek may tell you that I really wanted to add the gun named exactly "Anti-Freak Jackal" xD. One chance in a million, but you got it :P.

One chance in a thousand, maybe, even hundred. It's Hellsing we're talking about, I mean.

Just, y'know, remember the exploding stuff. When you add it.

Just leave it. No sense in removing it if we all know it'll be there eventually anyway.

Gah, can't wait for the next release...

You can unload them? Sounds like a glitch...(Or else an oversight)
Title: Re: Spoiler/Wiki Random Artifact List?
Post by: The Buttery Lobster on January 24, 2008, 10:09
no, i can't unload it, but I used it for everything and saved the real plasma rifle for emergencies (arachnotrons or tougher). With some eagle eye and son of a bitch, the NPR is enough to take care of barons and lower easily, as long as you only meet them one at a time or take cover to reload (in which case you can handle more). That ammo conservation makes a world of difference.
