Do we know which is the currency used to buy things in the shack?

Also:

Check Astral Influx menu, see if we can become Oric

[LordSlowpoke]

...you know what fuck it

if he gives us the shack, stock, supply routes and everything, i am willing to give oric the ring so we can play the warrens of ciro the shopkeeper

[GreatWyrmGold]

5(Ring)+5(Mechanical)+2(Changed Registrar)=+12 Diplomacy vs Mechanical units

Conclusion: Proxxy too OP for mechanical persuasion
We could even befriend the searchbots!

Discuss this plan with Proxxy.

So...Oric has been defeated, but came back?
Inquire into this with Goom-Bess.

Yeah, we won't ever sell that ring. I know that FFS hates it, because we have the potential to ruin thw whole plot, but, if the GM is a jackass, the players will be assholes.

Someone needs to add this to the TV Tropes quotes page.

First reaction after returning from the doctors office:

HOLY FUCKING SHIT IT'S ORIC

Starting to get kind of a Xykon vibe from this guy. In the sense that Xykon could have smote everyone in the OOTS in like, two panels, but didn't, just because it would be boring for him. He even gives Roy the opportunity to leave, call their second fight a "draw", go level grind, and come back later for a real final showdown.

We may be able to use this to our advantage, but we should still be careful. If we cheese Oric off too much, there's really not much stopping him (as far as we know) from pulling the plug on the whole cycle and starting over, and we won't have the advantage of plot information. And/or we game over instantly.

HOWEVER. We now know why the anti-magic field is up. We should seriously ask Oric what is up with this dangerous creature, where it could be found, and what sort of boon he might grant us if it were to be slain. Because as I mentioned before, I want this damn anti-magic zone to be GONE.

I wonder whether we can stuff Oric into our inventory. How many inventory slots do we need in order to kidnap people?

Totally sigging this, btw

[javierpwn]

No! We shall save Cain! Because it goes against the wishes of Oric, as he wants us to kill as any of his Siblings as possible!

[LordSlowpoke]

and then we storm the dungeon with the power of friendship

and overused pickup lines

Here is some theory-crafting that will blow your mind, what if...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Oric doesn't give a crap about us? he may be the villain, but that doesn't mean we are the hero, therefore he only gives as much of a shit about us as we make him give, therefore while he is evil, it may not even matter to us since we aren't the hero that he is shitting his pants over.

 Not only would it explain why he himself isn't worried in the slightest about proxxy joining us, and that there is a 1/3 chance of us needing to help him. (Either we kill the magic creature for him as a quest, break his anti-magic machine, or save the creature) and the fact that he is apparently willing to buy and sell to us.

 All of this points to either Oric not being the "Villain" (maybe spira is the real bad guy/puppetmaster?) or that ciro and her/his merry band isn't the band of heroes that are trying to wreck the warrens, especially considering that ciro is implied to be a part of the cycle, and not an outside character therefore making her a non-threat to oric's precious cycle.

Or maybe he doesn't care because he has literally seen us die thousands of times? Even if we were to ally with most of the Siblings(which we probably had done once from those thousands of cycles) he has witnessed each cycle end the same way.
Him helping or hindering us only affects the quality of his viewing.(Like reality TV)  but in the end, he knows that helping us wouldn't matter in the slightest; at least, if this was a normal cycle....

Someone, with a Spira-shaped head, is messing with the cycle, and creating hundreds of inconsistencies. And using Ciro as a tool against Oric.

Still doesn't care much about us though.
I like how everyone is referring to Cain as 'the creature' 

[flabort]

Wow, back to really fast updates again, eh?
Yesterday we were only entering the level. Today we're haggling with Oric!

Tell him he only has 499 diabolical points.

[freeformschooler]

The fast updates will be stopping soon, so if you want to waste your down time on something pointless, you could plot update speed over time to make an educated guess of when they'll speed up again. I bet there's a pattern in there somewhere.

But yeah, no, let's hang on to the ring for now.  While it is implied the shack moves, it should be around.

Find out what currency the white is.  Inquire as to what everything does.

[mastahcheese]

I love how we're so casually talking with the guy we need to murder later on down the road.

Inquire as to who's floor this is, as in, which sibling.

Also, ask which one our's is.

[miauw62]

-1 to selling the ring. It's our most effective weapon.

[freeformschooler]

NO DICE, ORIC!

The exchange rate for Pence to Stream Rubies was what, 10:1? Assuming the same conversion, 4 River Dollars is 400 Pence. His offer went down. Fuck him.

Unless there's another currency in there somewhere, in which case his offer actually went up by ~800%, meaning he REALLY WANTS that ring.

Anyway yeah, "Do we need anything here, Proxxy, or can we get on with it?" Because getting on with it involves figuring out how to get at that fancy magic shovel over to the left.

Oric reminds you that Plot Information is two-hundred Pence a pop. It's not like hints just grow on trees, you know?

Proxxy's explanation seems good, and the rest of stuff looks self-explanatory. You could probably still ask about a specific thing.

Spoiler: Offers (click to show/hide)

A slash means you can choose which payment is accepted! Oric leans over toward you and reminds you that you inventory is full and the DL3 market is a long trek from here. Hint hint hint.

Oric's on the menu now (sort of), but when you touch his icon, the Influx just zaps your finger. Ouch!

Y'know..... From what Goombess said about Spira and 'her kind' never being injured, made me think about our BetweenFord battle.
Did we really injure him at all, or was he simply tired of our antics, and had better places to be?

True action:Complain that Oric's shack ets in the way of our HUD

You tell Oric his shack is all up in your HUD and you can't see nothin'. He seems noncommittal.
