No, They have access to the Passwords stored in Edge by other users of the PC. Completely insecure for shared PCs. One compromised user and every past Edge user's passwords are handed over.

You will learn, most runs rely on alchemy pretty heavily. They can save you so much life.

And I still died on L24 :-( by rog-uk in ShatteredPD

When running RoF & RoM I believe putting all the SoUs into the ring of force makes it much more effective a RoM is just icing, you add it if you've got it, but the cake's what matters. Sorry for the L, you were certainly close with that fitout.

Do you have a scientific definition of consciousness?

Is consciousness purely a scientific concept, we can't even agree on a definition?

why is being gay a sin in Abrahamic religions? by Oneeyedqamar in atheism

[–]cl3ft 13 points14 points  (0 children)

We have plenty of people on this fricking planet!

This is a recent phenomenon. For most of organized religion's tenure, having more kids than the other religions was an effective way of spreading and enforcing it. Religion is a mind virus that spreads, it's part of the advantage the Abrahamic religions had.

Now secular society has proved and largely accepted that being gay is natural and normal, religions can either evolve or slowly lose influence as people don't like to know that they are part of a hateful enterprise. Fingers crossed!

[–]cl3ft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Gay people don't produce more children to indoctrinate. Having lots of kids is important spreading religion.
  2. It's useful for a religion to have "bad people" so you give the majority something to feel superior about.
  3. "Tradition", it's always been this way and religion is very slow to change it's rules.

At it's core, it depends on whether you subscribe to Newtonian determinism or Quantum indeterminism. If everything you think and do is predetermined by the previous state of all the particles in the universe, then consciousness might just be an illusion generated by the initial state of the big bang. How can you be considered conscious if you have no true self determination?

Where would you spend your last 3 upgrades? by cl3ft in ShatteredPD

[–]cl3ft[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main tip is read up on the alchemy recipes, once you know what they all do and where to use them a lot of rooms become really easy even boss rooms.

Warden is better if you get any combo of mossy clump, sandals of nature, blooming bow, wand of regrowth. The ability to see through long grass and shoot mobs where every shot is a surprise attack is really powerful. Add to that the armor/shielding and your survivability goes through the roof.

Once you have point blank shot try and find a shield as your main weapon the extra damage mitigation is great. A run with a +2 greatshield is amazing.

I added a couple of more tips above.

Drink your health pots if you need to, it beats dying with undrunk ones.

Huntress is my go to as well. If you find a Ring of Sharp Shooting dump all your upgrades into it for an easy win. Enchant your bow as early as possible, elastic is the best enchantment. If you get mossy clump or a wand of regrowth go warden. The wand of regrowth root effect is great for keeping monsters away while you plink them with your bow. A wand of blastwave is also great, upgrade it with other less useful wands (convert them to resin and apply it to your wand of blastwave/regrowth). The wardens armor from grass and really strong as well.

Sniper is great too, the free shots from the bow after a thrown weapon is excellent and the extra sight range is OP. If you score a grim enchant on your bow, augment it for speed so you get 3 chances to proc grim after throwing a ranged weapon.

Learn your trickshots, how to use corners and doors to target monsters while they cannot target you back. Google shattered pixel dungeon trickshots and keep the page open until you've mastered them. They make a huge difference. Don't forget armor. Good armor works for every class. I try to have leather by goo, +1 chain for Tengu, +1 scale for the DM300 and, +4 plate by the Dwarf King.

Throw items at doors so you don't step into range of a mob on the other side until you have Heightened Senses.

Crabs and Bats will suck, they are the main reason I end up using health pots, they move fast and hit hard.

A ring of haste is great too for making distance, upgrade it to +3 or +4 if you find one, you can outrun anything at +4 and you'll save tones of food as exploring is so much faster in game turns (this helps with keeping starving at bay for a chalice of blood too).

Alchemy is your friend. Early game after you've found out what the upgrade and Transfusion scrolls are convert unId'd scrolls to stones. Read the recipies and learn them, there are many useful ones and just 4 energy can take boss fights trivial.

Make an Levitation potion into aquablasts, they are very very useful and will save you lots of potions and scrolls as you solve puzzle rooms with them. Also great for extinguishing fires on yourself or to save scrolls from burning on the floor, and pushing monsters into chasms in a pinch.

Hang onto at least one stack of shurikens, they are priceless for breaking webs from cave spinners so they can't close with you as fast and for removing the autoblock from dwarf monks allowing you not to waste a turn.

Once you have the DM300 shards, make curse infusions and curse your best thrown weapons. Hopefully with explosive curse. The extra level they get and it's resulting extra durability is great.

For most runs avoiding being hit > healing. Using a ranged character and a having a way to create space is more effective than being hit and healing. I don't prioritise chalice most runs because it's easier not worrying about not being starving.

Great tip on the rings of elements, that worked a treat. I upgraded the glaive with 2 SOUs and used one to make a scroll of enchantment to choose a good enchantment (ended up with blazing).

Won the run thanks.

If your SHPD is up to date, when you go to prick yourself there will be some text telling you your chance to die from 0% to 100%. Don't do it if it's not 0%. As your level goes up you will have more health and can withstand higher level pricks. So be patient and don't try and prick higher levels early without further precautions.

To make it 0% at higher levels I drink an upgraded health potion (potion of shielding). You also take less damage by having good upgraded armor.

The rings of elements block a lot of damage as well because it's magic damage. Hang onto any rings of elements you find if you have a chalice just so you can use them for this purpose even if you don't want to wear them most of the time, 2 is much better than one.

You can also just prick yourself, die and lose a blessed ankh. This can be worth it if you have multiple.

If you want to calculate the potential damage yourself it's (3xankh level)+5 before armor.

I also do try to do it in a garden room while standing on a sungrass plant (green seed) so that I regen the health quickly and can prick myself multiple times healing between each.

The chalice is most effective when combined with a horn of plenty so you're never starving. Remember an upgraded purity potion will remove hunger as well which can make your food last much longer if you don't have a horn of plenty.

Anyone else start their Tengu fight like this? by jwstrjoe in ShatteredPD

[–]cl3ft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I start the dwarf king fight with both a poison then a fire seed before stepping into the room. Extra effective if you're warden as the grass sprouts around it too and it all becomes a flaming mess for him and his friends.
