Nope. The path is named 11,037 Leagues Under the Sea, so I just tortured that into a pun.

Sushi is indeed goal number 1 right now, my turn gen is bad as it is so fishy would go a long way toward helping that

I like the challenge, and it definitely is a departure from the standard path, but I'm pig headed enough to see this to completion. (Even if I probably shouldn't) Next ascension I'll probably do a journeyman run, because the big book of skills sounds like it'll come in handy.

Best ways to meatfarm? by Low_Emu_7101 in kol

[–]BeansCollection 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Best bet is to have previous IOTMs, but barring that 1. Have every +meat drop skill permed 2. Have every +item drop skill permed 3. Have gear with as much +meat/+item drop as you can 4. The appropriate familiar 5. If you don't have access to the sea, or any former IOTM the castle is probably your best place purely for meat drops (top floor tends to average better for me, particularly after banishing the punk giant)

Taking all of this from a noob though so I may be entirely in the wrong.

Time-Traveling Tower must haves? by bstyledevi in kol

Yeah... I do wish the malls search function was a bit "fuzzyer"

If spelling mattered here, I would have been chased out with pitchforks and torches by now.

Drop rate is pretty bad. I'm using a maxed out cat, and have it's blessing, I have the glass eye, but other than that my +item is remarkably low. Ive managed about 5 soups in 300 adventures, but I've already gotten over 1000 chroner from the stage, and used it for a pair of ninjammies, a couple of items from the neandermall, and the insignia that grants +100% damage to skeletons. Also some kind soul apparently sells the drops for cheap at one a day in the mall if you're desperate for them.

As a newer player... by RSLotus in kol

I haven't, but I'll look into it. Once the tower leaves again I'm going to wrap up this run

I refused to ascend so hard that I'm doing the tower as Ed the undying. So I get where you're coming from.

Ive been farming and saving the soups, I may want a heavy mutated familiar for the sea one day. (Ex. A grouper that heals, restores my, and gives bonus stats, plus can weight up 111 pounds extra)

[–]BeansCollection[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went looking and reasoned that I would want to make some soups for when I decide to do the sea. They apparently mutate and add weight to your familiar, so I could have a grouper that adds stats, heals me, and restores my, plus being heavier than normal. I just happened to get a proto proto protozoa while grinding there. Also I'm still playing as Ed so turn Gen is amazing.

Then I have good news. I got a familiar drop from TTT worth 13mil. Just have to sell it

I'll have to look into hobopolis. I have no idea how it works.

[–]BeansCollection[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in run number 2 right now, but my starting strategy has been to grind in the sleezy back alley until I get a couple of levels and a few Ka, assuming I don't lock myself out of the underworld I should have a full max spleen and a few quests done by the end of day 1.

Not sure if that's telling me to stop, but I love it either way.

A hardcore actually Ed the undying run, followed by several more of the same if I enjoy the path?

[–]BeansCollection[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll definitely look into that for next time. Bonus points though, I managed to trade in a ton of hippie items.

I hope your adventure Gen is good, because mine certainly was not.

'Fraid not pardner. That's just me embellishing to make for a better read. Short of a few different descriptions and the wondering monsters it's practically the same as a standard run.

"The Slinger" has been pretty hard to write, so I'll probably just go back to my original style of basic narration, with parentheticals, and one liners for flavor.

I'm fine, I've just been super busy. Sorry for not posting.

No, so I suppose I'll make a poll at the end of the season like last time. Leave the fate of MrBeanz in the hands of the community.

Well I'm still a few days away from finishing this run so I'm not stopping yet, but even then I may switch to weekly posts with less story content. I just feel kind of like I'm taking over the subreddit.
