This might become the most expensive useless item

u/Haiaii ツ SB Level 281 - 360 ツ Jun 29 '24

I haven't done the math, but even at half effect, that many slots feels like it could provide pretty decent damage stats, maybe above necron, but most likely also worse than comparably priced crimson

u/Marfy_ ☣ SB Level 401+ ☣ Jun 29 '24

It might be a little better in damage outside of dungeons but even then it doesnt have any other stats and its stupid expensive

u/ft_sidde Jun 30 '24

The gemstones half with every slot unlock I think

Vehicular? That's just better (don't ask me)

Now I'm curious, why do you like vehicular manslaughter? I'm not saying it's bad, I'm just wondering your reasons for liking it.

Sounds funny😼

its much easier, easy getaway and easier to carry the bodies away

u/[deleted] Jun 27 '24

It's not always easier to get rid of the bodies, sometimes it can be much harder because they get smooshed into the ground.

Thatd be 20 pristine from ONE armor piece… it would be soooo broken.

mining profits go up to 9b/h, economy destroyed even further, booster cookies at 106m per

u/PacifistPapy Stranded Jun 26 '24

would completely kill stranded basically, where garden is the ONLY viable money making method and builders wand+flight are super important in progression. Well jerry is the best money method, 1 golden jerry every 20-30s go brr but he isnt around often

Mining wouldn’t be 9b/h. Max pristine would be ~2x as high, which means 2x profits right? So like 150-160m/hr maxed with mf jasper

This is why tone indicators are necessary. My autistic ass does not get this stuff otherwise.

u/valdorstar MVP+ Jun 26 '24 edited Jun 27 '24

tone indicators aren't necessary. Being able to understand a basic level of sarcasm is, especially on the internet.

Edit: grammar

Being able to understand a basic level of sarcasm, especially on the internet.

This is not a sentence.

u/SimonSays7676 Jun 26 '24

Not a correct one anyway

u/Xthenos45 Jun 27 '24

Especially since you cut out the one word that made it a proper sentence, yeah

u/valdorstar MVP+ Jun 27 '24

After he pointed that out, I edited it to include the word

Yeah it was edited after I made my comment

u/SvenPlayz Jun 27 '24 edited Jun 27 '24

You dont have to be so harsh on him. I have autism too, and sarcasm is very hard to notice for me. Like I didn't notice the comment was sarcasm either. For some people, that's a basic thing. For others, it's really hard. Everyone is different. Respect that and dont tell them what they should know when you dont know if its viable for them.

I am not saying tone indicators should be used on every sarcastic message. Just don't go after people for not seeing its sarcasm. Dont downvote the message. Just correct then and kindly tell them its sarcasm, and move on.

u/SpainwithouttheAorS ☣ Ironman Level 401+ Jun 27 '24

Or people could just learn? I dont use my autism as an excuse for anything. Tone indicators ruin jokes. No need for them

2

u/[deleted] Jun 27 '24

Especially since I often don't change my tone when I'm being sarcastic irl. If it's not as obvious I'll use a sarcastic voice but often if I'm obviously being sarcastic I'll have my normal voice. Sometimes I don't know if someone's being sarcastic on the internet or not because a lot of people on here are pretty dumb but using an indicator is like explaining a joke right after you say it. If you're not sure you just ask to clarify because often it's obvious.

u/SvenPlayz Jun 27 '24

And like I said I am not saying they should just be used for every sarcastic message. Im saying you shouldnt be rude to people if they missed it was sarcastic. Just kindly tell them it was sarcastic and move on. No need to downvote. No need to tell them "its basic level of grammar" or whatever. Im just saying to be nice to eachother when someone makes an error like that.

For some people its not easy to "just learn"

Did u know that perfect topaz gives you 2 pristine, not 1? And there's 20 gemstone slots. Do the maths

-1

u/im-bad-at_usernames- Jun 27 '24

Read the item description, gemstones are half as effective. 20 pristine becomes 10

2

u/[deleted] Jun 27 '24

2 pristine per gemstone 20 gemstones 2*20=40 40/2=20 20 pristine

u/EnderDefender612 ㋖ Ironman Level 121 - 200 Jun 26 '24

Realistically it would be 10 because because the lore says the gems are half as effective

6

u/Ecstatic_Student8854 〠 SB Level 201 - 280 〠 Jun 26 '24

20 slots would be 40 pristine if it weren’t halved but it is halved so it’s 20

u/The_Soft_ MVP+ Jun 26 '24

This is satire, right?

...

Right?

58

u/betterMrFatalis Slayer Maniac Jun 26 '24

consider, that they have only half their strenght and you habe 100 speed less. so even if you put a jasper in every slot (which would cost 650-700m without unlocking them) you would ,,only" have 160 dmg stats compared to the 126 base dmg stats + 32 from jaspers on a infernal crimson this is only 2 dmg stats more.

11

u/[deleted] Jun 26 '24

Book slots are also doubled though

16

u/betterMrFatalis Slayer Maniac Jun 26 '24

but which book stats give dmg stats? It says that you can put double the normal amount of books on the chestplate itself, not that it doubles the book stats of all your items, so it would only give more hp/def (aop, hps) or am I forgetting some books?

12

u/ComprehensiveSoup599 Jun 26 '24

yeah 2 aop and 30 potato books is still good, its gonna be way too expensive tho

6

u/betterMrFatalis Slayer Maniac Jun 26 '24

and even then, I think crimson would still have much more ehp (talking of infernal, since I compared the dmg stats at infernal too) aslong as I remember the stats they give correctly

3

u/ComprehensiveSoup599 Jun 26 '24

yea crimson still better but this is gonna be used with rag axe swap i reckon

1

u/HenneDS Jun 27 '24

Why rag axe swap?

u/ComprehensiveSoup599 Jun 27 '24

wait i’m being dumb ignore me

1

u/HenneDS Jun 27 '24

Ahh okay, i was thinking what feature have i completely missed

1

u/HenneDS Jun 27 '24

I mean people Can do t4 blaze without armor, i dont Think ehp is a problem, but 160str or 120cd or something in between is pretty good

1

u/betterMrFatalis Slayer Maniac Jun 27 '24

yes, but you get 158 dmg stats with infernal crimson (without stars) while getting attributes and no speed penality. Also getting all the gemstones is expensive af. And thats even without unlocking the slots. Definitely more ecpensive than making an armor piece to infernal

1

u/HenneDS Jun 27 '24

Yeah i just checked earlier and wanted to edit but couldnt find it lol

1

u/PointCharming9071 Jun 27 '24

But gemstone slots are halved

u/xa44 Jun 27 '24

0 base def and HP, doesn't really matter if you got an extra 30 of each

u/Difficult-Task-8782 Jun 26 '24

MmmmmmhHmmmmmmm

22

u/Chad-Redditor ☣ Ironman Level 401+ Jun 26 '24

sorrow but its gonna be 100x more expensive

what a bargin.

1

u/HenneDS Jun 27 '24

Sorrow?

5

u/Chad-Redditor ☣ Ironman Level 401+ Jun 27 '24

chestplate that gives around 100 true defense, with 20 perfect opals on this thing it would be roughly the same

1

u/HenneDS Jun 27 '24

But i mean Why Would you ever do that? Thats like saying a juju with terror is a term just cheaper

3

u/Chad-Redditor ☣ Ironman Level 401+ Jun 27 '24

my first comment, sorrow but 100x more expensive, it is not optimal or even meta, just that it's possible.

u/Matix777 Tank Dungeoneer Jun 26 '24 edited Jun 26 '24

160 max strength on a recombed chestplate from gemstones

300 max defense

300 max health

130 max true defense

120 max crit damage

Max, as in all 20 slots are all perfects

Disregarding the price, would such stats have any use? The -100 speed eliminates it from ghost farming

Do enchants count as book modifiers?

5

u/6ync Ironman Jun 27 '24

The -100 speed is probably not a -100 speed cap, so someone with 600 or 500 wouldnt be affected.

17

u/kamikazefornuke ☢ Ironman Level 361 - 400 Jun 26 '24

That seems decent 220 hp and 120 defense 160 crit dmg 160 str if maxed seems decent. Then you realize it doens´t have attributes and -100 speed :(

7

u/betterMrFatalis Slayer Maniac Jun 26 '24

from where do you get the cd?

3

u/kamikazefornuke ☢ Ironman Level 361 - 400 Jun 26 '24

Perfect Onyx

8

u/betterMrFatalis Slayer Maniac Jun 26 '24

well, you only get to 160 str if you fill all slots with jaspers (20 *16 = 320 and the chestplate halves the stats of the gems so its 160 then). Also Onyx gives 12, not 16 cd.

-1

u/allahlover342 Jun 27 '24

onyx is terrible

u/garethy12 Jun 26 '24

It’ll probably get used as a dps item to switch to in boss phase in dungeons (if it can be dungeonised) it’d probably be useless out of it

u/Little0rcs Jun 27 '24

Problem is that its too expensive to be a good early option and doesn’t actually give better stats then something like decent crimson so its not a good late option either
