Do mutants still have a chance to acquire a permanent stat boost from injectors(now tonics)?
If not then it's a real bummer, as well as removal of analytical genius.

Yes, the stat-boosting tonic gives mutants a random chance to either get 1 point to a random attribute (not an AP) or one MP; true men get 1 AP.

I swear I've played lots of Caves of Qud, but what does AP stand for?  It's late night here and I can't think right.

I think AP is a point that you can put into the stat of your choosing. You get them sometimes when you level up.

[enigma74]

Thanks, that has to be it.

There are awfully few types of tonics.
There seems to exist a super tonic that gives point boost, but ingredients to make it (some type of seed)
or tonic itself are super-rare. I mean, so rare, that you won't get any in your whole lifetime, unless you know how to play this game similiarly to making a challenge game in ADOM and still beating it.

I have no idea how to get these new seeds or crystal of ewe. There is absolutely no hint as to where to get them.

New Golgotha is unforgiving and impossible to cheat through. Chrome walls are indestructible, and even if I get through them, then the fall will kill me.
There is a tonic that reduces fall damage (and Golgotha has the only fall damage AFAIK) but it's just unpractical to use it there, as You'd have to have 250 HP to survive the fall even with the tonic, and there's a big bad boss down the shaft. I must say Golgotha got a significant difficulty spike.

I'm using the previous version, and it appears that Quills aren't properly regrowing. I have less then the maximum, but I'm getting zero extra quills unless I spend a mutation point to raise the skill. (Which adds 80-120, but still no regrowth)

I must say Golgotha got a significant difficulty spike.

I didn't find it too hard after blundering in a couple times (and savescumming to learn a bit better).

Go in level by level, rather than down the shaft. Phase helps a lot here, because you can often phase to a safe(r) area rather than being swarmed by crabs and other nasties. Corrosive gas generation is also extremely useful, because you become immune to the gas/acid trap spewers. Try killing a motor if you want the conveyor belts to stop. Avoid flame traps when they light up; they fire off a turn later.

There are a couple other nuances but this is just the general strategy for it. Overall it took some learning, but I made it through without much issue after the first few times.

Updating will normally invalidate old saves, so finish them up before upgrading.

[Micro102]

But..... But it's gonna take forever to finish the game and I want all the new stuff 

[BunnyBob77]

Wow unormal you're coming out with a huge update practically every other post.  I played this a while ago, maybe I'll try a newer version.
