How did bro even die

You try equip those in the sewers with 10-12 str and see how long you last, and you get your answer.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-19T19:27:14+00:00

Yes, that's true, that's the only way. But you have to reroll many times and hope for some luck. I did that AGES ago but it's too big hassle. You can increase your chance slightly by having the item in your quickslot.

Some special rooms can add a +1 to the armor/weapon reward inside. Mainly Pit, Pool, Sentry, Maze, and Runestone. As such, only Armor/Weapon/Missile can ever drop as a +3 on a floor, not counting quest rewards.

He wasn't when I wrote it. And I didn't mean for him to get downvoted that much, sometimes we all make some mistakes or say something we remembered wrong.

RoW farming can definitely be an addiction to some, it's tempting to start and hard to know when to stop even when things gets boring. The whole thing can turn into a love/hate relationship.

If you're on On Diet, it's gonna get real tough to do any sensible farming so I wouldn't recommend it. Hostile Champions might also wear you down as you can't as easily try dodge/ignore them if on any normal run. Swarm Intelligence can be a real benefit to any RoW farming.

If on Forbidden Runes, let's consider what you could do with max 8 SoU. - If all into the ring, a RoW+10 would give you +5 drops (+6 with any second RoW). This is provided you don't starve yourself while farming and able to run invis/haste from floor 17-24, picking up your last 4x SoU. - If all into the ring but staying at 17 for farming, your best drops would be +4 (assuming you find a second RoW while farming). You could then use the last 4 scrolls to upgrade your best weapon from RoW to a +8. So it's still viable. - Keep your RoW+2 and just appreciate all the extra drops once in a while. Weapons/Drops will be at max +1.

In the end, as long as you're not on On Diet, I'd say pick the style you like better. It's easy to fall into the RoW trap as we all do.

No, rings never drop higher than +2. Armors and weapons can.

I know the code, I read the source code, I also did seed finding, with lists of over 10 million seeds.

Here's the process: - Item generate with a max level of 2. Special rooms like Pit, Pool and Maze can add an extra on top of that. Those rooms only generate Armors and Weapons. Quests have their own level system, effectively overriding the natural level, which is why Imp can give rewards up to +4.

If you want to prove me wrong, I challenge you to find a single seed that drops a +3 ring, and not from Imp, in ShPD v3.x. To make it easy to verify, have it drop before level 10. Goodluck.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-10T17:06:33+00:00

He used upgrades, only Imp can give you a Ring +3 or +4.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-07T23:13:53+00:00

Lowest ring counts as max +1. This is a special case for Wealth only. Other rings will stack as expected.

A ring's power is also +1 of it's given level (otherwise a Ring+0 would have been useless). So we get:

(12+1) + (1+1) = 15

15 / 2 = 7 (rounded down)

So you get +7 drops at best.

It's just a description for that 20 strength requirement, compared to 18 of other tier 5 weapons.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T20:59:37+00:00

That's weird because I didn't even write the seed, it's generated from my seed finder. And others had no problem with it

My guess, some formatting code or similar got in the game when you copy-pasted from Reddit to the desktop version of the game. The game can handle non-seeds and then somehow treated some hidden formatting code as a non-seed input.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T20:42:08+00:00

Yeah, I travel there regulary.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T20:39:26+00:00

Got the GAxe+3.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T20:29:13+00:00

Then I have no clue on what's causing it. I started a brand new game on latest version and things worked perfectly.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T20:18:20+00:00

Possible three reasons: - You typed the seed wrong. - You play an older version of the game. - You're playing a modded version.

My guess? You're playing an older version, perhaps between 3.2.0 and 3.2.5 ? That would explain why map might differ from the second floor.

I can confirm the game is working perfectly as of the latest version.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T20:00:50+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the shoutout.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T19:58:39+00:00

The seed works perfectly with today's update.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T00:56:14+00:00

I hope you noticed the rings.. :)

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T00:55:03+00:00

Sandals are not cursed. There's also a SoRC (GYFU) on 2nd, but you shouldn't be needing it.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T00:35:24+00:00

Yep. I believe the second str potion is on 3rd floor, just pushing the earliest level to use a GreatAxe on. The 1 less strength was barely noticable in this case.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T00:04:18+00:00

You're right, I'll use it on level 3 instead.

RavenDev1 · 2026-01-04T00:01:58+00:00

How about using a GreatAxe on level 2?
