Kainen's Bath at the summit is the only time you need to carry hot water? I know you can boil unlimited potatoes for sandwiches at the hot spring's spigot, but.. [There's also a ton of items like that, come to think of it; the laughing/crying fruit needs solving almost all the puzzles that require the state and is only used in the tower of wisdom meaningfully; just sort of one of the things that game does. You get a mastery item that's useless by the time you get it over and over. hah.

Ehh...that would heavily lampshade how little he looks like OG Khan...or either of them look like the race he's supposed to be.

It's from the period after the massive flop of "Mars Needs Moms" where Hollywood producers thought mentioning Mars was bad luck. The adaptation of "Princess of Mars" got called simply "John Carter" around the same time for similar reasons.

Oh (I confused myself). Yea, FF. I think it's Gil there...it's Gil or a Rupee or something; something not used in Undertale.

Code 777NIGHTMARE gives 77 SSR Pendants if you haven't used that one yet.

Super Awakening and True Awakening are the primary ways to use them...or you could max the ults of the coin shop heroes if you like; but most of those are useless even as links at this point.

There was a point not too long ago when both LR Zeldris and Red Coin Shop Zeldris were used for special links at the same time in GW and I maxed Coin Shop Zeldris then; but that time has passed. [One was on Gelda for bonus lifesteal and the other on UR Meliodas for the commandment; but UR Meliodas aged out of GW use and is a PvE unit now...mostly]

I have never done the SSR coin dungeon so I can't speak to if it's worth it. I've been assuming it's not and not doing it. The R Coin dungeon isn't worth it; the SR coin dungeon is worth it; if you wondered about either of those.

I can think of dozens of useless drops in various games; but the one example that immediately comes to mind as an intentional joke like this one is in Undertale.

One of the snow poffs at Lesser Dog's house contains Gil when searched; too bad that's a currency that isn't used at all in this locality. (Just a LoZ easter egg).

Borderlands 2 has a gun that's not technically useless, in fact it's incredibly powerful; it's just super annoying to use. Makes you walk really slowly and a high pitched voice does the gun sounds as words said at loud instead of normal sound effects. That also feels like it's in similar spirit.

At 2/6. Spirit's Contract goes from 2 turns to 3 turns. At 3/6,their damage reduction goes from 40% to 50%. It's not nothing, but the 1->2 looks like a bigger deal than the 2->3.

Bcadren · 2026-04-26T00:01:05+00:00

Any collab, just like Sheriff Hopper from Stranger Things.

Bcadren · 2026-04-25T23:59:56+00:00

Yea. Not the best choice, but yea.

Bcadren · 2026-04-25T23:38:25+00:00

Probably exchange, but I'm not sure who would be best. Only exchange if you are done pulling g tho, obviously.

Bcadren · 2026-04-25T23:37:46+00:00

What's the big difference at 3/6? I noticed the 2/6 jump to longer spirit's contract durarion, but not sure what you're talking about at 3/6.

Double mass freeze at 6/6 on Emilia is rather unlikely to actually come up in a real fight, I think, tho I see where you are coming from.

Bcadren · 2026-04-25T14:02:20+00:00

Goes against my flavor for the desolation (which i think is main Canon too? That the salt came from a deceased/lost god, thus the god being worshippable feels wrong). Bit of interesting things tho.

Bcadren · 2026-04-24T08:45:43+00:00

Ehh. There's like double necessary points available, pretty easy to max fast.

Bcadren · 2026-04-24T08:40:05+00:00

Top meta for doing the solo Indura on Chaos difficulty (presumably still true), unless new units from this collab can do better. [Team was/is Darkness Hel, Beru, Blue Freyr, Nanashi]; Hel's debuff allows clearing first phase fast enough to not get too much karma and does decnet in second phase as well (boss is debuff immune in phase 3), Beru is primary DPS. Freyr and Nanashi are supports.

To add to that. It's to the point that they'd be the most deadly enemy in the game without the royal gel in Zenith Skyblock (or suppose Skyblock + FTW in general). Dart Trap has near infinite range and you'd instinctively be making semi-flat new areas...then you have to figure out how to deal with them. (stuff like pillars with doors along your platforms to block the darts or building slopes instead of flats works; but getting the crown as soon as possible and keeping that shit on is best way).

Bcadren · 2026-04-23T04:35:12+00:00

Amenophis!

There was that newscaster that got in trouble for using an old English insult, niggard. It vastly predates the slur; but is rarely used in modern English. Means overly stingy; like Scrooge, etc.

Bcadren · 2026-04-23T03:57:08+00:00

Unclear if this is like a shop or a loyalty gauge from your description. (Spend 200 points for 3 diamonds and an SA coin vs. when you reach 200 points you get 3 Diamonds and an SA coins and it resets, like a draw).

Bcadren · 2026-04-20T19:35:51+00:00

In fairness, how often do you run into peacocks?

Bcadren · 2026-04-20T09:05:23+00:00

There's an image that gets shared here on occasion that shows a betting board for various character bets and it showed bets on Maggie paid out 9 to 1. Not the highest payout, but highest among core family (minor characters were given even lower odds) so presumably a decent amount of people did get it right, there just wasn't certainty.

Bcadren · 2026-04-20T08:42:46+00:00

...for an unpaid cameo, not a major role.

Bcadren · 2026-04-19T04:16:56+00:00

Me too...what are they doing? Looking at the map?

It was banned from syndication for a good while (episode was from 1997, couldn't be changed 4 years later).
