HTML RE:Curse Origin [v0.93] [GratuitousLove]

[Coconut-Sama]

I've noticed there's some talk about how Docile Soul is too weak for early game, I feel like an easy buff is to increase cell count that can be built in the dungeon. It "technically" buffs Slut Soul, but not really, as it's largely irrelevant for Slut Soul how many cells there are and is just a QoL buff so you don't have to catch one guy and then do something with them, but for Docile Soul, early game cell capacity determine how many people can be captured, making the max number of cells from 5 to 10 would easily be a big early game buff (Early game being pre-take over Petipatelin) without largely buffing it after since you can build as many cells as you want after so long as you have the stone. Just my two cents.

I was affraid it would make them too strong late game but I think you're right, despite their recent buff they're still weaker than slut soul even mid/late game so increasing maximum cell to 10 shouldn't break the balance and make the game a bit less "grindy" in term of required micromanagement.
Or maybe I'll do the "restore dungeon" upgrade that I planned a long time ago but never got the time to do that reduce the time cost of engraving and the max cell capacity.
One way or another I'll do something about it.

This is news to me, I always considered docile soul a must have, I'll have to give slut soul another try if it's supposedly better late game? My battle limit strength is around 18000 though (e.g. 1800 warriors), without trying too hard. With docile soul I always get a ton of free prisoners which I turn into demons.

Anyway I'm not going to say no to buffing the soul I'm used to, but I will give slut soul another go next update maybe.

0.92a is now officialy public, (technically 0.92 has been uploaded here but not by me)
It doesn'tadd much if you already played 0.92, but fix a couple bug with Zoe's title/oufit not updating properly, double the amount of cell you can have changed some tooltip for more clarity.
The patchnote for 0.92/0.92a are available in the OP.

Yep slut soul give an insane amount of "magic skill" (the ratio is weak but it adds up quickly) which I think is stronger than docile soul (even if I just doubled cell capacity in dungeon).
Also slut soul allow you to have Selene masked, which increase it even further as long as she hates you (which she does if you mask her) and later you can hypnotize her to to love you more which reduce her magic skill but increase combat skill allowing you to survive a couple waves maybe (even if it might not be the best anymore with mindless giving boost to every stats including hypnosis or breeder allowing you to bypass slime's price increase).
I still think that at some point docile soul will become better as mana isn't an issue once you're far enough in the late game, but for now it allow you to be ready much sooner to be able to survive the beam.

Is that with going through slime'd town town or securing cultists?

I haven't tried really pushing it since before the doom beam countdown was added (notably, also back when there was the bug that let you snag hostages from the forest so fast you couldn't switch tabs fast enough) so I haven't tried seeing how far I can really go with slut soul masks but once it gets to a certain point, you're recovering 1000+ mana in a couple of seconds, and I want to say I would be able to load up at least 20 prisoners from the forests each round in between everything else, usually gets to the point where I'm just sinking mana into increased base mana cap which I currently have at +170 mana (having 200 mana as a starting amount is pretty convenient) for a lack of anything better to do. When I do set it to manufature demon souls, I remember basically topping off 1000 mana, swiping 5 people, demonizing, and repeating and doing so multiple times between fights.

The one time I really managed to get a docile soul run going I remember feeling basically starved of mana due to just not being able to generate enough, getting into town helped alleviate that once the idols were giving off mana per second, but even still it just felt slow as molasses. There's a vast difference between getting ~30 mana regen and getting 600+ mana regen.

Ultimately, it also depends on your main stats since those act as a multiplier for everything else.

Is there a way to get Selene as an equal like with Morgana or a plan to do so in the future? So far I only see the obvious options of slime breed, slut mask and mindless. Honestly I prefer Selene or Zoe over Morgana but that's probably me being biased due to how many times she became my downfall

Not really, but there will be a "nicer" way to corrupt Selene, there is already an alternate version of intro (I think you unlock it after slimer breeder) that allow you to not make her a puppet/mindless etc and keep her free and from that point you'll be able to convince her to serve you, but this path isn't done yet.

What are the requirements to proc the create a lust collar event? I have every upgrade, and every building (excluding temple and sawmill due to needing the event to unlock them), but just can't make it happen

Edit : you need to have completed the cultist and kitsune event and have Petitpatelin captured.

Cultist path, and I'm also able to get several thousand mana a day via bedwarmers and idols, and 20 prisoners/day from cells from combat and I spend the rest on mana cap ritual. My run is pretty much maximally optimised though, I'll have to try slut soul again because I didn't see the mask option and/or the mana bonus wasn't meaningful to me and I'd rather take the global 1.4x bonus from seducing and betraying Selene. +170 mana is absoutely insane, although I can see how now after doing a proper soul slut run! (I did lose my save though). I still only fight up to 1000 or so fight power on slut (dumping all mana into ritual), but up to 18000 on docile, because docile gives me 2x combat multiplier from Selene + an easy to acquire demon army in the 100s.

edit: ok I tried slut soul now, again since the difference is understanding how the stats work for that better, very interesting, the mana regen is indeed quite insane!

So :
1) If I'm not wrong, you can accept Morgana as your equal once you've reached the second event with her (the one in which you remember she hypnotized to forget everything, this should happen soon after capturing Petipatelin)
2) If you really want to you can delete your save by delete "local storage" of your browser, you can google how to dele local storage for [your browser name] it shouldn't be hard to do.
3)if by renown you mean loyalty it is displayed in Petitpatelin's status screen.

Selene's status shouldn't impact Morgana's at all, as I said, you need to remember she's hypnotizing you before you can accept her as your equal.
The date isn't displayed anywhere, but 27 days means you have 27 "attacks" remaining (when your threat bar is full).

have somehow morgana is bug after the ver change to 92 from 91 but fast fix without delete save is to right click then use dev tool and replace hidden is show it a fast fix but not the real fix

Hmmm if the bug is "accept her as your equal" not visible, it was a bug I fixed in 0.93 (for patron only for now but I'll upload it here the 15th.
If the bug is something else please tell me and I'll fix it.

 

[OurBlackString]

Promising elements, would be interesting to get more buildings for the base and diferent kind of traps besides slimes. Perhaps a couple more branching upgrades for variety purposes in each army/minion. Also second act village resources UI werent seen anywhere in the interface. ( Maybe leave the stone quantity current amount nearby Infamy numbers/loyalty numbers)

I keep dying, anyone got a save? or tips, I get Selena a mask and then I wait and die

If you are just starting out, dying is normal as you won't have the necessary mana generation to get past the tutorial.
After dying once or twice, you'll be able to power up the crystal and be given a choice to use the mask on Selene or the puppetry scroll.
Using the mask on Selene will immediately game over your run regardless of your built up stats. You need to make her a puppet using the scroll and associated mana to get past the opening section.
If you don't, for some reason, have the mask or scroll in a run, make sure to check the side room.

ah I see, thank you

I wonder if it is a bug as the option to build the temple is disappearing until I start a new run.

 

[GratuitousLove]

I wonder if it is a bug as the option to build the temple is disappearing until I start a new run.

I don't think the temple button should disapear during a run, do you have any info when this happened? Can you open the console (F12 on most browser) and tell me if there is an error?
The only place in my code to hide this button should be when gameOver happens.
And the button should reapears everytime you launch the event to capture Moonshade.
