Warrior Guide

  • This guide has been started using information from prior years and should be updated with additions/corrections for this year. If you have a topic where you are also tracking info (the same or otherwise; you are entirely welcome to steal as much of this guide as desired) and/or working to better organize combat efforts, I'd be happy to add a link here to that. If you'd like to take on at least partial responsibility for updating this page, but do not currently have edit access to this group, let me know.

  • Multi-Use Weapons


    Using the wrong weapon against an enemy allows the enemy to resist some of the damage.

    Fists - Infinitely usable, but only deals straight 1d4 damage and may be resisted by any enemy.

    Piercing Type (Dexterous Type) - Slightly improved accuracy and dodging. Ideal against green (or aqua) enemies; others may resist some damage.

    Examples

    rapier-icon.png Noble Rapier - "A beautiful and light weapon, for when you want to strike fast, stay quick on your feet, and look stylish."

    energysword-blue-icon.png Energy Sword* (2017, 2020) - "A blade made of energy in the 520 - 490 nanometer frequency. The compact technology keeps it light weight, for when you want to strike fast, stay quick on your feet, and look super cool."

    technowhip-icon.png High Tech Whip (2019, 2020) - "A whip, enhanced by electric shock technology. Stunning!"

    pitchfork-icon.png Pitchfork (2021) - "A common farming implement, now being used for battle."


    *Energy swords are blue by default, but could have their color changed to green, red, purple, or pink via special crystals.

    Slashing Type (Heavy Blade Type) - Ideal against red (or pink) enemies; others may resist some damage. Has most uses before breaking.

    Examples

    battleaxe-icon.png Wicked Battle Axe - "Holding this axe makes you feel... powerful."

    honorblade-icon.png Alien Honor Blade* (2017, 2020) - "A blade for warriors who show true honor in combat."

    *Alien Honor Blade (2017, 2020) appears to have a chance to deal a couple points extra damage via insult to honor.


    Energy Type (Gun Type) - Ideal against blue (or purple) enemies; may be resisted by others. Highest damage potential among multi-use weapons, but fewest uses.

    Examples

    raygun-icon.png Ray Gun -
    "A sleek, futuristic energy weapon."

    flintlock-icon.png Flintlock Pistol (2018, 2020) -
    "An old timey flintlock pistol."

  • Buffs


    A player can give another active player a buff from inside combat once per 10 stamina (after you've used 10 stamina total, you can give another boost so long as you have at least 1 stamina). Boosts replace each other, but those with oil boosts already will not be listed as an option. (Appeared 2018? Year-specific or ongoing usage?)

    The standard, item-free buff is a +1 defense boost.

    fishoil-blue-icon.png Blue Throwable Oil (Defense)
    (formerly Blue Fish Oil)
    +4 to defense.
    "Sweet Flips" Blend Buffing Oil - This blend will make you feel so nimble and dextrous, you can do backflips out of the way when a foe tries to hit you!

    2022 Crafting

    For 2022, items to cure status effects and buff fellow fighters are craftable in the Epic Farming Game. [Guide/reference needed.]


    2018 and 2019 Crafting

    Oils/potions are items that could be crafted in 2018 & 2019. Crafting them requires an empty bottle (obtained from bottled message). Blue and red oils/potions require 2 of the matching-color item (blue fish or lapis lazuli for blue, red fish or super scarab for red). Yellow oils/potions require one of the colored item (puffer fish or super slug), plus two medical items (medicinal plants or stimspray). Bottles and fish could be found in 2018; bottles, lapis, scarabs, and slugs could be found in 2019.






    Status Effects


    Poison - Reduces accuracy, making it harder to hit enemies. Takes 4-6 hours to wear off. Can be removed with a medicinal plant, stimspray, or Anti-Venom. (Introduced in 2015. Originally never wore off.)

    Blight - Prevents normal healing users get every 5 minutes. Takes 4-6 hours to wear off. Can be removed with a medicinal plant, stimspray, or Blight-Be-Gone. (Introduced in 2016? Originally never wore off.)

    Bleed - Drops HP by 1-5 points per round for 3 action rounds after infliction. Cannot be cured before the 3 rounds are up. (Introduced in 201?)



    Pets

    This section is being updated. Current info indicates pets in the hotel participate with 1d4, and named pets around 90% wellness may get 1d12.

    walrus-icon.png Walrus - A walrus in your inventory or display case has a 3% chance of absorbing 1d8 of the damage meant for you. (Don't worry, they can't die, all that blubber will keep them safe!) Can be purchased from Moa when she visits, but only a limited number are ever available. They can also be dressed up into different forms; be aware that dress-up items will replace each other and are consumed on use. The dressed-up forms often feature unique flavor text when they appear in battle.

    phoenix-icon.png Phoenix - A phoenix in your inventory or display case has a 3% chance of dealing an extra 1d8 damage to an enemy. They were available as part of Operation Audacious Phoenix. They come in several different color schemes, changeable by feeding cinnamon sticks.

    Unknown: Is it 3% per pet (more pets = higher chance one appears), or 3% that any pet will get an action? Can more than one pet appear during a single attack?
  • 2023 Enemies

    This area will be filled out when Epic Week gets here. If you're looking for info from 2022 or further back, check out the Past Adventures page. :)

    Notice: Non-boss enemies are weak to one of the three multi-use weapon types and typically "shrug off" some of the damage from the other two. Which weapon is best can be determined by an enemy's color.
