This was my first real ring of wealth run and I think I went a little overboard. I got a seed that had a cursed +2 ring of wealth on floor 1. I knew right then and there what I had to do... I died a horrible death to a flaming crab champion (9 challenges) on floor 3 and cried.

Then I remembered that I could use the seed and just do the run for pure enjoyment. It was a blast!

I had a +4 ring by floor 2 which was kind of crazy. All scrolls went into that! I eventually found another +2 ROW and together with my +17 I was able to farm some +10 items and was eventually able to get another +10 ring. Transmuted that into Arcana and used the multiplicity curse on myself to spawn thousands of succubi... I tanked their hits with my greatshield while they fell to their gruesome deaths below. Lots of fun! 10/10 stars!

Seed: SJF-KWH-NPJ I'm on 2.1.4 though so it may not work for beta

The ROW let's you find items above +3!?

Wow!

[-] disce_pati@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

It in fact guarantees special equipment drops with upgrades every so many enemies. The number of upgrades on the ring is related to the number of upgrades on the drop but it's not 1-to-1 though. The minimum drop level is (1+upgrades)/2 so at +5, you start getting+3 special equipment drops

Incredible! Thanks!

Strange I'm on 2.1.4 as well but with that seed I get only a standard, non-upgraded ring of sharpshooting (and it's not cursed). Maybe you can check if the seed it's the right one (unless I am doing something wrong)?

[-] disce_pati@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

There's 2 rings. One is in a chest (ring of sharpshooting) and one is in the crystal key room with the chest (+2 wealth, cursed)

[-] tsl@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 11 months ago

Well, that was it! I now found it! Thank you very much!

[-] disce_pati@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

No problem! Have fun!

The text input used to create the level. Using the same seed will generate the same drops again. I'm assuming, never played this game but that's typically what seed means.

[-] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

They were asking for the seed, not asking what seeds are.

[-] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

... I'm neurodivergent, so thank you

[-] HandsomePotatoe@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

How? The highest I ever gotten any item to was 5+

[-] MrRedstoner@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Dump all scrolls into it and blacksmith. Started at 2, +15 SoU, +1 smith = 18. Then the rest of the gear is farmed as drops thanks to high level RoW

[-] disce_pati@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

That's exactly it!

[-] gabelstapler@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago

How did you get so many Upgrades? I only know the Scrolls of Upgrade scattered around the Dungeon and the blacksmith to Upgrade your stuff.

[-] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Turns out a high level Ring of Wealth makes high level stuff drop.

[-] Bartleby@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

So I'm pretty new to this game and have what may be a dumb question.

How does one start with a seed?

[-] gabelstapler@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago

Select the Hero, then the gears to enter a seed.

[-] Bartleby@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

I think my issue is that I've not finished it yet. :)

[-] disce_pati@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

So I just realized it shows upvotes and downvotes. Apparently 2 people think this is crap, lol. Can't make everyone happy
