Damage field is apparently pretty good! First time I've seen it, but you stick it on a slow-ish projectile and figure out how to apply it to several of them (my current is a humble three shot bubble spark, done by chaining double spells), and then it sorta' ruins everything your shots get near. Good stuff. Little extra damage even on a direct hit, but it's best with lingering near misses.

... also made my first one-shot-to-lag spell. Kinda' disappointing, all it is is four stacked flaming trails and a burning trail on a single bouncing burst shot. Seems like you can't burn more than 100%, so it's not, like... good. For much. But it makes a game chugging line of pure fire so that's nice.

Game need a perk that makes it so there's not a limit to how much you can set something on fire. Every extra 100% increments the damage or somethin'.

E: Other thing the game needs: Let you kick stuff through portals. I want to watch a minecart% speedrun, where the goal is to kill the final boss with the starting minecart in the shortest time possible. Dunno if it's possible right now, but that'd make it a lot more straightforward.

Bouncy + homing perk on top of a wand with a bunch of (mostly orb) splitters is apparently hilarious. Had that on a wand just now, until I managed to crash the game. Turned like the whole screen into danmaku hell. Though the other wands just turned the screen into hell. Well, two of them. The remainder was kinda' boring, but it would make a tidal wave of whiskey when I arced it right and cover like a quarter of the screen in booze for the few seconds it took for essence of fire to trigger and it all ignite/explode.

Serious suggestion to anyone, though: Figure out a way to play this with infinite health. Game is crazy enough as is, when you don't have to worry about your own spells killing you...

Everything was fire. Fire, whiskey, flaming whiskey, explosions, exploding whiskey, exploding flaming whiskey, essence of spirits is indeed a bad idea but holy is hell it a trip if it can't kill you.

Okay. I am deeply, deeply disappointed you can't jump on the deer and ride them around.

E: D: the burning man is like a goddamn magnet to these things once it catches fire

no deer what are you doing oh god they're all on fire

...

... my flask of water managed to save two. The buck didn't make it. Poor deer.

E2: walk up to the sheep flock

sheep start intermittently hurling themselves into the lake

and not, like, falling

these sheep freaking jump

has to be at least three or four sheep lengths

and then they just slowly bob their way off screen

this shit is weird

E3: oh

no, by bob their way offscreen i mean get about halfway to the edge of it and then drown

the sheep float, but not well, and do not swim

so they die

what the hell

E4: you have got to be shitting me

essence of fire, why do you exist

I guess I'm an explosion now

P.s. the sheep didn't make it. Or the deer. Or the duck.

E5: oh come on

Perk description: That was not the best of ideas.

i would appear to be permanently drunk, now e6: wait no it's just added whiskey trails to all my shots

E7: huh, the vault is surprisingly close to the surface, apparently?

You can break through the freeze field ice with several different things... but none of them particularly quickly. It basically only takes one or two unfortunately timed entrapments to just see you kinda' dead, and unfortunately timed entrapments are like 90% of what the perk provides :P

Also maybe I misremembered the name? I was talking the perk that passively freezes liquids near you, not a spell component or somethin'. It's neat in a lot of ways, but stupidly deadly for you. Like, I was cheating so it didn't kill me, but I lost count of the amount of times I bled or something bled on me or otherwise dumped liquid over my head, just in time for an explosion or burrower or something to slam into me. You don't survive freeze field, heh.

I think posting a youtube link without explanation of what it is or some sort of summary for people that don't want to watch through a video is internet cancer :P

... so frozen field is neat. Also freakishly, freakishly annoying. Well, and suicidally deadly, even more so if paired with anything that adds liquid generation (more blood, slime blood, whatever). It will trap you in ice. Constantly. Toxic ice. While things shoot at you. Probably never take that perk.

Maybe could tweak it so you can phase or automatically eat through frozen stuff, I'unno. As is it's mostly a "kill me" button.

What? No, no, explosion immunity is bloody ace, one of the better perks. It would make the spoilery perk I was actually referencing maybe not slowly kill you. Between vids and actually playing I think I've seen most of the temple perks, at the absolute least, heh.

Any case, works is super easy to get to if you have a source of infinite flight (I was just cheating and had infinite lev, but I've seen legit ways to pull it off).

...the thing in the eastern diamond is, like. The worst. Death message suggests explosion immunity would make it less suicidal, though. Still. Barring that it's probably the worst perk I've seen yet, yeesh. It looks pretty neat, too, for the few seconds it takes to notice the damage numbers showing up :-\

Best part is you seem to have been offed by robotnik's cousin or something. At least you were murdered by a decent pedigree.

Let me rephrase. Does people being shitty outweigh our elections being accountable to us?
I mean, it might not, but you're also talking about making a conscious decision to throw some of the most vulnerable among us under a bus in order to buy that accountability. If there's some other option that's feasible, particularly on the logistical front paper ballots can run into trouble with, it'd probably be a better idea.

Uh, no engineering reason, sure. Pretty strong other ones. Abusive family, employers demanding it, various other sorts of pressure, there's like a fucking line of reasons why we don't want any record besides the voter's word of what they, specifically, voted.

E: If they're claiming it's physically impossible rather than just a bad idea they're idjits, though. Just to emphasize that.

That plus bite is fun times.

Though I'm not sure it's actually infinite returns. I've had a blue candle/necronomicurse combo manage to make the curse stop coming back before, heh. Might have been a bug, I'unno, and since fixed, but at the time it was hilarious and iirc unfortunate. That deck was pretty reliant on that particular abuse :P

Wacky weed makes you do weird shit man, weird shit.

This feels like something you'd hear about in like... whenever the weed scare was biggest... year anti-drug stuff. First you get high, then you drive for nearabout five hours, then shit happens, you bust a cap in some (not so) rando dealer your stoned ass drove to, then you panicked and left the money and the weed you went after. Then you probably got high again. Stay off drugs, kids!
