It does however seem like a worm is programmed to always spawn in the snowy depths... and plummet to its death in the Hisii base, most likely. Often a tunnel between those two places.

It's more the ground-digging spiders in the underground jungle that are the problem, I find.

I believe something like ~3 worms always spawn in Snowy Depths

[Micro102]

Anyone else feel like the optimal way to play the game after getting a good wand is to blow up every explosive from a distance and wait a full minute as all the toxins, fire, and freezing gas dissipates? Then move a screen over and do it again?

Without explosion immunity it feels like I'm a dice roll away from losing everything, and all the DOT waiting to leech my health is a slow killer that's best avoided.

eh it's difficulty is true to the roguelike nature of the game. while your strategy may be optimal, it isn't very fun - I suggest diving quickly and just learning how to 'skip' enemies. I was afraid of explosions but now they are just another hazard. Just keep in mind potential enemy spawns for your level, and explosive boxes aren't to be feared. Hisii base can be challenging for sure, but it's also the gimmick of the level so eh.

I find the 3rd level very hard, you can say there is a slight progression between mines part I and II, but ice caves...well, i'm still a beginner but i still have a hard time there.

Mines > Coal uh Veins is pretty easy > Snowy Depths is fairly hard with snipers and the addition of huge open spaces that have lots of slow, but maneuverable enemies > Hiisi Base is a big leap if you haven't gotten lucky/spent time tooling up, upgrading, and getting swole. > The Fungal-y Place is yikes, I died instantly with tons of health and a great wand.

Did I somehow break something or is there just something entirely counterintuitive with the perk reroll purchase? Last few times I bought it, it just took my money, disappeared, and the perks stayed the same.

[NJW2000]

That sounds broken... I know there are oddities with perk reroll when you start going on extremely long runs, and getting more perks via [SPOILERS]

Yep, it was totally broken; file verification didn't seem to work, but an uninstall/reinstall did the trick! My temple still had the old design to it, despite claims of being fully updated, which ended up being a huge tip-off in retrospect.

Now to die repeatedly to facepalm-worthy deaths: "Oooh, I can have a rapid-fire bouncing laserbeam with this combo. Lets test-fire this right through a reflect barrier.

Have you heard of our lord and savior OMEGA SAWBLADE? Because they've joined the spell roster with the latest patch :V

[ThtblovesDF]

I like what big black holes do to each other if you got more then one.

It feels like hp doesn't matter, you are either dead or not, with most things insta-gibbing me beyond layer 3.

[Egan_BW]

HP does matter! A lot fewer things will kill you once you get 40k or so HP. :3

[Kagus]

Is Vampirism still around?

Is it still kinda ludicrous in that you have to consume an ocean of blood to regain 3 hp?

Is it still the thing that I would absolutely be taking anyway, and just making sure to carve up my enemies with chainsaws to flood the world in sweet, sweet crimson?

[Micro102]

Did they update the "anger the gods" Stevari with extra defenses? Because here I am, nailing it with lightning bolt over and over while it's frozen on the ground, and it's just not dying, and eventually it gets enough attacks off to kill me.

[SHAD0Wdump]

I think it has been explosion/electric immune for a while, I remember having no luck with lightning in the past.
