Anything to do with using Plaudits or the other other hand? --[[User:Strlikecrazy|Strlikecrazy]] 02:36, 21 March 2011 (PDT)

I gave 10 Plaudits bars to different people in chat a few nights ago. No badge, so it's either not that or requires more than 10. --[[User:Harry Dresden|Harry Dresden]] 09:22, 22 March 2011 (PDT)

NardoLoopa has it.--[[User:Muhandes|Muhandes]] 07:45, 1 April 2011 (PDT)

Googling for 'one man cannot summon the future' brings up a Star Trek episode involving evil twins, which together with the picture(electron/positron=opposites) and this being an 'old tropes' makes me think this could have something to do with the [[your evil twin]] foe. [[User:Kurg|Kurg]]
:* I agree with Kurg on this one. Has to be battling the [[your evil twin]] adventure X-number of times. --[[User:Corrupt Shadow|'''Corrupt''''''Shadow''']] 19:05, 3 April 2011 (PDT)

Can't help you. I don't even remember getting it --[[User:NardoLoopa|NardoLoopa]] 11:08, 1 April 2011 (PDT)

I missed the msg, but i can confirm it is evil twin related. I killed about 20 with the mirror equipped (dunno if the mirror makes a difference!) and i got the badge. --[[User:Strlikecrazy|Strlikecrazy]] 05:50, 4 April 2011 (PDT)

I actually tried that with an alt several times too - defeat the twin with the mirror and normal equip, mirror and pajamas, and (possibly) even JUST the mirror. Didn't get it though - perhaps I should keep trying, though unfortunately I lost track of how many fights I already did. [[User:Kurg|Kurg]] 06:37, 4 April 2011 (PDT)

* Assuming y'all are talking about the [[Rorrim mirror]] and not the [[Mirror of Nitocris]] as it has a Level 70 requirement, correct? --[[User:Corrupt Shadow|'''Corrupt''''''Shadow''']] 07:41, 4 April 2011 (PDT)

Yeah CS, the [[Rorrim mirror]] is correct! :) --[[User:Strlikecrazy|Strlikecrazy]] 09:47, 4 April 2011 (PDT)

==Strategies & Combat Mechanics==
My hypothesis is that if you fought The Mick the day before (and didn't beat him) then when you fight him the next day you'll have an absurdly good chance at beating him. Case in point: I lost to him yesterday. Today I went into combat with only my starting Slingshot (Gadgetteer). He owned me without any armor doing more than maxhp on the first hit. However, with some shoddy gear (105 total power, no other effects), I was able to last 6 rounds (he mostly did 12+12 dam). In that time my Slingshot did 85damage for a single hit, and 140damage for a double hit. --[[User:NardoLoopa|NardoLoopa]] 06:07, 21 October 2010 (PDT)
 -i doubt it. i've managed to lose to him 5 days in a row and he has not been easier after any given loss. --uewebawo 12:34, 22 October 2010 (EDT)

==Strategies & Combat Mechanics==
My hypothesis is that if you fought The Mick the day before (and didn't beat him) then when you fight him the next day you'll have an absurdly good chance at beating him. Case in point: I lost to him yesterday. Today I went into combat with only my starting Slingshot (Gadgetteer). He owned me without any armor doing more than maxhp on the first hit. However, with some shoddy gear (105 total power, no other effects), I was able to last 6 rounds (he mostly did 12+12 dam). In that time my Slingshot did 85damage for a single hit, and 140damage for a double hit. --[[User:NardoLoopa|NardoLoopa]] 06:07, 21 October 2010 (PDT)

:You're reading too much into his comments. He said the "Halloween badge" was set to him only and that he fixed it. He never said if this was or wasn't the "Halloween badge". [[User:Cristiona|Cristiona]]

Consuming one each of the 4 Halloween sugars did nothing --[[User:Muhandes|Muhandes]] 17:47, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

And consuming 2 of each of the original 3 didnt work --[[User:Zillow|Zillow]]--

That pretty much rules out Halloween candies, so unless it has to do with costumes (which werent a part of the first Halloween) we have to assume that this ISNT the Halloween badge.

RE: CS - Not quite, There are a few factors that trigger drops. I generally use a lot of buffs/effects and use a ton on foe toughness. I hit 30-40+ buffs and 120+ Foe toughness and i get the candy,thunderbolt and chip everytime. However, something else or more triggers the vest! Hope that helps.

2010-11-24T20:09:53Z

Strlikecrazy: /* Specific Retcon Walkthroughs */

This guide assumes you are somewhat familiar with the mechanics behind Retcon.

If you want to experience the joy of overcoming Retcon and discovering its ins and outs on your own, immediately press the "back" button on your browser or close this tab/window, then continue enjoying Twilight Heroes.

If you want help and don't mind spoiling a little of Retcon's mystique, keep reading.

(work in progress, feel free to correct or add)

==What do I get out of Retcon?==

There are several rewards for whaling on the Mick endlessly, including:
# [[:Category:Quest Rewards|Quest rewards]]. Quest items such as the Skeptic Sandals are removed, but you get to keep Gold Coins, Blue Chip, bonus skill points etc. if you haven't sold/used them.
# [[metal medal of mettle|Medals of Mettle]], based on the difficulty of your run. These can either be combined to make [[Supersolid mettle medal|a fairly useful early-game accessory]] or to buy powerful gear/bonuses at Nocturne's shop.
# *If* your run was worth more than 1 mettle, you get to "perm" one skill you have learned so far and keep it for all of your subsequent runs(except no-permed skill ones, of course).
# Bragging Rights for "maso" runs, those set to maximum mettle. Bragging rights for if you make a one of the Top Ten scoreboards as well. 
# The most important: Lulz!

==Before Retcon==
All optional, but these precautions may save you a lot of trouble later.
*If you have [[positronic computer]]s, swap them with [[electronic computer|electronic ones]]. You're going to lose whatever you have installed in your computer labs.
*Obtain as many as you can/want of the "items" to pull (listed below).
*If you don't want extra items cluttering up your Deep Storage screen, clear out your inventory by putting stuff in your Momento case, storing it in Hideout (don't forget it's there), or selling it.
*Make sure your Sidekick has at least the skills [[Jujitsu expert]], [[Documentarian]], [[Flea market trader]] and [[Egyptian knife fighter]]/[[Karate expert]].

==Pick Your Retcon==

Not all retcons are created equal. An evaluation of the merits of each.

===Class===
Here is a generalization of the various strengths and weaknesses of each class.
* [[Naturalist]]
:* Pros: Very powerful offensive skills, high HP, decent combat stats.
:* Cons: Lack of self-healing, late-game normal attack is relatively inaccurate.
* [[Elemental]]
:* Pros: Powerful offensive spells, high PP, decent self-buffs.
:* Cons: Fairly weak combat stats, low HP.
* [[Gadgeteer]]
:* Pros: Excellent combat stats, great self-healing, offensive spells weaken enemies.
:* Cons: Offensive spells do little damage, some permed skills don't benefit other classes much.
* [[Psion]]
:* Pros: Excellent combat stats at low level, high PP, good farming skills, good offensive spells.
:* Cons: Low HP, weak combat stats at high level.

Part of the fun of retcon is trying them all and combining their skills together. Beginners might find it easy to go with naturalist, since they have the easiest time taking down tough bosses.

===Items/Pulls===
You have several options.
* All items available immediately (-4 mettle)- While it may be tempting to immediately have access to any powerful gear and consumables you have, the -4 mettle will set you back quite a bit if you plan on shopping at Nocturne's.
* Max pulls (10/day) and get a break after 48 hours of patrolling(-2 mettle)- Similar to the previous option
* Max pulls (10/day) (0 mettle)- This is the baseline option. If you find you have too many items to grab, go for the "some pulls" option instead.
* Some pulls (5/day) (+2 mettle)- This option requires much more consideration and efficiency than "max pulls", since you only have 5.
* No pulls (+5 mettle)- A very difficult option, since, aside from free pulls, you'll have to loot/purchase almost any and all items you want, including certain quest-required items.

===Skills===
* All permed skills available (0 mettle)- This is a good option for later runs, considering some permed skills benefit greatly.
* Permed skills remembered, but only class skills can have skill points applied (+2 mettle)- Having your non-class permed skills left at lv. 0 isn't that bad, especially if you want to focus on putting SP into class skills you believe are equally worthy.
* No permed skills remembered (+5 mettle)- The only permed skill you could possibly have on your first retcon is [[Precompletion_Pro]], which isn't of much value compared to the extra mettle, so your first retcon run won't suffer with this option. However, part of what makes repeated retcons easy is the extra permed skills. If you want a fresh challenge, this is the option for you.

===Food===
* Both caffeine and sugar (0 mettle)- No sacrifice made. Not a bad idea, especially if you want to finish the retcon fast.
* Decaf (no caffeine) (+3 mettle)- Statistically, this is less efficient than Diet. With sugar only, you get only .5-1 hours a day for 3 mettle, unless you decide to pull high-level sugar items. Compare this with the 2-3 hours a day for +2 mettle, and Decaf pales in comparison to Diet.
* Diet (no sugar) (+2 mettle)- This is the option probably best suited for those who want a small challenge with regard to turns.
* Naturally hyper: no caffeine or sugar, but +1 hour/day (+3 mettle)- Better than decaf, since you gain 1 hour automatically, where with decaf, 1 hours is the most you could hope to gain on a normal basis. Still not as efficient as Diet, however.
* Abstainer (no caffeine, no sugar) (+5 mettle)- With this, you will only receive 45-60 turns a day, plus level-up time bonuses, but if you can stand it, the +5 mettle will be well worth the extra mile.

===SideKick/Understudy===
* Sidekick with you from the beginning (0 mettle)- The sidekick can provide a bonus to defense, items/chips, damage-dealing and any other number of things, and if you're struggling with no sidekick, this can be a good choice.
* Sidekick has to be recruited at level 9 (+2 mettle)- This isn't too great a sacrifice, given that your sidekick, being based on your level, is fairly weak anyway until you hit level 9. On the other hand, short help is better than no help. It depends on how much you enjoy the benefits of what the low-level sidekick can bring you.

==Items to Pull==

Recommended. Note: Naturalists fare better with melee weapons, Gadgeteers should stick to ranged weapons, and Elementalists and Psions are good with either, as with them, (ranged weapons tend towards more reliable but less damaging, and melee tends towards less reliable but more damaging).
Special Note: Items that are either Items of the Month (IotM) or that come from an IotM are usually superior to their normal equivalents. However, many of them have high level requirements or can't be used during pull-restricted runs.

===Utilities===

[[Mister Tea]] - Extremely efficient use of caffeine, gives 3 whole hours. Requires level 5, but coffee shop items should do in the meantime.

[[Blue chip]], [[gold coin]] - Basically a ton of free chips. Two gold coins can easily finance you with no trouble until you beat the Mick.

[[Stroopwafel]] - If you picked a sugar-included option, this is the most efficient of the common sugar items. Granted, you can't use it until level 7, but it's still efficient.

[[Eye podule]]/[[SQUID player]] - Both useful for getting free XP from SQUID disks. Both items are fairly hard to get without pulling, so if you have nothing better to pull, pull these. Eye Podule has a slightly higher level requirement, but gives slightly more XP.

[[Bonus skill point]]s, [[pre-prepared skill point]]s - Self-explanatory. Best to wait until later in the game to pull and use these.

[[Brewmeister's master potion]] - A very powerful buff item if you're having trouble getting past a particular boss.

[[Ticketmaster's ticket punch]] - A good one-shot damage item if you're having trouble damaging a particular boss.

[[Night cap]], [[deluxe Lux Leather chair]], [[Wiggum wigwam]] - Eventually, you'll have to rest at one point or another. These will make resting a lot more effective. The last two are generally superior to night cap, but can be hard to find. Night cap requires level 5, others don't have a level requirement.

===Early Game Equips===

[[Paradime device]] - +2 PP and +1 HP regeneration *and* +5 dodge. No level requirement. Definitely worth a pull.

[[Talisman]] - Pick your Talisman of choice and immediately change it at level 1, so you only lose a few XP. The [[Swedish Navy Wrench]] is notable for its dodging and reflex bonuses.

[[Icicle]] - Good early-game melee weapon. Requires only level 2.

[[Filigreed foil hat]], [[gold-plated poncho]], [[gilded leggings]] - Excellent early-game equips, probably the best you can do until level 4. You don't have to pull these if you're willing to spend Gold Foil making them yourself instead.

[[Raskolnikov's fur hat]] - Just as good as the filigreed foil hat. Requires level 2.

[[Supersolid mettle medal]] - Excellent early-game accessory. It's a free pull too (see below).

[[Electronic computer]]s, [[positronic computer]]s - If you have them, bring them in, and save yourself some time looking for components during the level 5 quest. For software to use when not decrypting, [[personal copy of the internet]] is good for harder (and thus more rewarding) fights, [[Garcia's Traffic Avoider software‎]] can speed up certain quests, [[IMyself blog software]] will give free XP, though not as much as the personal copy of the internet, and [[GigantoFirm LookOut Calendar]] simply saves time.

[[Number one fan]] - Restores 3 PP AND has a 6 point spell damage bonus. A very worthy choice if you are burning through PP too quickly. Still useful through the mid-game.

[[Rolled Doll dahl]]- An offhand source of +noncombats, which should speed up quite a few quests. Also, no level requirement and stays useful for most of your run.

[[embossed emblem]]-Provides an incredible +4 XP boost, as well as a slight edge in combat. Indispensable for level grinding. Requires level 4.

===Mid Game Equips===

[[Lexura Infinides D-8]] - PP regeneration and range 4. No level requirement.

[[Bass-O-Matic 77]] - Pull this so you can ask for loot (a whopping 2500 chips) from the [[Go Fish]] mid-quest reward and still have an easy time beating up [[Troutmaster]].

[[Harbor pearl]]/[[sub-ma-car]] - If you aren't an Elemental, pull one of these so you can breathe water. Otherwise, you'll either have to equip the [[Bayside Dive Shop]] items, which are both a hassle and a disadvantage, or you'll have to fight in the difficult [[the Docks|Docks]] area to get the Harbor Pearl again. Save some trouble.

[[Mighty quill]]/[[Repeating rifle]]/[[Recoil foil rifle]]/[[Foil foil]] - All are very powerful weapons and will remain so for a while. Requires level 5.

[[Foyal crown]] - The bonus to base metal drops may be useless inrun, but the +7 XP/turn will speed you up a bit. Requires level 8. Could also be assembled if you grab a royal crown at level 9 and still have foil left.

[[Karma charm]] - Immensely useful for spell-reliant heroes. Still useful if you want to save PP healing or buffing. Requires level 5.

[[Blue Elsa's blue blade]], [[Biff Socko's socks]], [[Big Earl's suspenders]], [[gothy black dress]], [[Malappropriator's ski beanery]], [[The Shark's darts]]. Requires levels 4-7.

[[Phial of Samuels]] - Arguably one of the best accessories in the mid-game during normal patrolling. Extra item drops, a ton of PP restored every turn and, as icing on the cake, more maximum PP.

Anything from [[Nocturne's Shop]] - Much better than most normal looted/chip-bought equipment you can get at those levels. Requires levels 5-9.

[[Verse of the dodo]]/[[PDA]]- Bonus to XP = shorter retcon. Same bonus, but the Verse of the Dodo is superior for it's slightly lower level requirement at level 6, where the PDA is level 7.

[[Jetpack]]/[[Pegasus]]/[[Hot rodimus]] - These are useful for getting to the [[Rejected Rogue Ranch]]. The jetpack requires the [[Passable Pilot]] skill, the pegasus requires level 12, and the hot rodimus requires level 15.

[[Personal copy of the internet]]/ other [[software]] - The Internet is particularly useful because it is never consumed when installed. Anyway, if you need to make your foes tougher so they give you more XP, use Internet. Otherwise, don't. Other software just saves you time that would be spent looking for data plates. The +noncombat software([[Garcia's Traffic Avoider software]])could also speed up quests significantly.

[[Sneakiers]] -The +noncombat on these shoes can speed up the level 8, 9 and 10 quests significantly. Requires level 8.

[[Binoculars]] - Hey, more items! More effective at its job than any other available option. Requires level 7.

[[work gloves]] - Not many significant gloves in the mid-game. This is one of them. No fumbles is extremely useful if you don't have high reflexes. Requires level 6.

===Late Game Equips===

[[Chuck van Arnolde's tank top]], [[Delilah's shears]], [[Doctor Worm's surgical gloves]], [[The Baroness's stiletto boots]], [[The Tenderizer's hammer]], [[Kookoo's pie pitcher]], [[the golem's Glock]], [[chalkboard shield]], [[Thundarr's photon blade]] - All villain drop items. Not as powerful as the two categories below, but still better than normal loot/purchases. Requires levels 8-13.

[[brick wall]] - If you need a cheap source of damage absorption, this could be an useful offhand. The strength penalty is irrelevant if you use ranged weapons. Requires level 9.

[[xentrium breeches]], [[xentrium breastplate]]-If worn together, very effective at reducing patrol time, at the cost of decreased combat ability. If you have only one, you might as well use the [[Universal Unitard of Ultimate Utility]] instead since it gives the same time bonus as one xentrium clothing piece well as an XP bonus. Require level 10.

[[Prefontane's shoes]], [[xentrium boots]]- Both are footwear that reduce patrolling time. Prefontaine's Shoes have a superior time bonus, but are only equippable at level 10, which Xentrium Boots can be used at level 7.

Anything the [[hint giver]] trades Rejected Rogue Ranch items for - Probably the best non-IotM set of items you can obtain at level 10. Requires level 10. Of special note are the [[Universal Unitard of Ultimate Utility]], [[Diamond Dagger of Derring-Do]] and [[Stiletto Shoes of Stealthy Subtlety]], which, although outclassed in sheer combat ability by other gear, will shorten your retcon quite a bit with their respective time/XP, XP and non-combat rate bonuses.

[[Quizzically Quivering Quadraphonic Quad-Quadrant]]-A good off-hand for increasing both damage and defense. Requires level 11.

Anything the [[Wade-bot Base]] trades Space Station items for - Probably the best non-IotM set of items you can obtain at level 12. Requires level 12.

[[Paddlebot logo]]/[[Fordbot logo]] - Excellent stat bonuses. Requires level 9.

[[High-jump boots]]/[[Gnat gloves]] - Necessary during the level 11 quest, and also necessary to explore the roofs of downtown area, which brings some very good enemy drops.

[[Relaxing flats]] - These provide some amazing PP/HP regeneration, great for patrolling, although they're available when retcon should be almost over. Requires level 10.

===Free Pulls===

These are items that you can pull regardless of how many normal pulls you have left, and do not take up your pulls.

*[[White elephant gift]]
*[[Plaudits candy bar]]
*[[Razzberry sticker]]
*[[Metal medal of mettle]]
*[[Denser mettle medal]]
*[[Heavy mettle medal]]
*[[Supersolid mettle medal]]

==Skills to Perm==
Every retcon, you can choose one skill to pull, making the game much easier.

These are the most important skills to learn. All skills have their merits, but these are the most useful for a smooth retcon. Partially based on [[User: Valera|Valera's]] and [[User: Cristiona|Cristiona's]] opinions.

===Recommended===

[[Lightning Bolt]] - Lightning bolt has just the right level of power for an offensive spell- not so much you rapidly burn PP, not so little you have little use for it later. Just be aware when you are fighting lightning resistant opponents.

[[Trample of the Rhino]] - Indispensable when fighting bosses. It's less reliable than lightning bolt and so not as well suited to normal fights, but, if the hits connect, it can easily take down bosses in one or two turns.

[[Maul of the Cave Bear]] - Good for similar reasons to Trample of the Rhino. It takes more PP, so is not well suited for low levels.

[[Basic Martial Arts]] - The to-hit bonus is indispensable at low-level, regardless of who you are.

[[Advanced Martial Arts]] - Less useful than Basic Martial Arts because it only improves general offense, as opposed to the to-hit you really need at low level, but still a great help.

[[Battle Armor]] - Similar concept to Basic Martial Arts. Improves defense, which is also important.

[[Aura: Vim]] - Extremely useful. The extra to-hit and dodging abilities are crucial at low levels.

[[Proper Hydration]] - The extra PP will go a long way if you use offensive skills often.

[[First Aid]]/[[Knit Flesh]]/[[Knit Bone]]- You only need one of these. Knit Bone is the most efficient, but usually overkill at low-levels. Knit Flesh is well suited to low-levels due to low PP cost, but it the least efficient. First Aid is between both of them. FA can also be used in combat, but it's value there is debatable.

===Also Useful===

[[Upgrade Armor]] - Very flexible and cheap bonus to various stats. Motorized is good for certain areas, Resistance is good for certain bosses and areas, and Superabsorbance is general use.

[[Stone Armor]] - A much needed bonus to various elemental resistances, especially electricity.

[[Firestorm]]/[[Psionic Blast]] - Similar to Lightning Bolt. These are too expensive/overkill for early game, and still PP-expensive late game but it packs a better punch than lightning bolt. Note that Psionic Blast is weak against robots, even with Electronic Understanding, so Fire Storm may be slightly preferable.

[[Metal Detector]] - Extra items. 'Nuff said.

[[Armadillo Armor]] - Extra defense. Not as constant as Battle Armor, but still useful.

[[Starfish Regeneration]] - Generally speaking, PP is better than HP, so Starfish takes a backseat to Proper Hydration. Still a worthy skill to perm.

[[Aura: Mystery]], [[The Fire Within]] - Only good for "casters"- characters who rely on spells rather than weaponry for damage.

[[Aura: Vigor]] - Not anywhere as useful as Aura: Vim, but at high levels, it's the best choice for that second aura slot if you're not going to be casting spells much.

[[Shock Grenade]] - Good for softening up enemies and bosses and even does a little damage as a bonus.

[[Detachment]] - Mostly good for bosses, since the increased turn length detracts from using it during normal patrolling. The damage reduction is pretty good still.

[[Sniper]] - If you like using ranged weapons, this passive gives up to +25 ranged damage and +30 init, which could help immensely with tough fights.

==Dealing with General Situations FAQ==

Q: A boss is kicking my ass! 
A: 
*Load up on skill buffs and item buffs and double check your equipment is properly suited for the boss. 
*If you don't have a sidekick, consider getting a temporary combat-based one. 
*If you are a naturalist, just hit them repeatedly with Charge of the Bovine/Trample of the Rhino/Maul of the Cave Bear. Problem solved. 
*If you have some good offensive spells but are losing in normal combat, consider using those spells and changing your equipment loadout to improve intellect, defense and spell damage. 
*If you have a powerful damaging item like TNT or Ticketmaster's Ticket Punch, use them. 
*If you are engaging in normal weapon combat, use a glob of goo, rank bun, webbed sand or a Gadgeteer/Elemental weakening spell to soften them up. 
*Make sure you don't have any negative combat-related buffs on you, such as Listless, Weakened or Concussed. Internal Injuries and Needs Stitches are fine. 
*Go somewhere else, level up, come back, get revenge. 

Q: An area is kicking my ass! 
A: Don't go there. Find someplace better suited for your level. If you have any foe toughness inhancers, though, remove them and it might just work.

Q: An area I *must* be in is kicking my ass! 
A: 
*Check your equipment to see if it could be better. Remove foe toughness increasing items. 
*Level up and come back. 
*Make sure you don't have any negative buffs on you. 
*If you're a Psion or Elementalist, consider using offensive spells instead. Modify equipment accordingly. 
*If you're a naturalist, spam Charge/Trample/Maul.

Q: I can't get an item! It just won't drop! 
A: Equip items/software that improve drop rate and combat encounter rate.

Q: I need a specific encounter! 
A: Equip items/software that improve noncombat encounter rate and just be patient.

Q: How should I restore HP/PP? I keep running out! 
A: There are eight ways, in rough order of time/money /PP efficiency.
#Increase your regeneration. Skills, equipment, and certain buff items can all do this. Totally free, and if done right, can end up fully restoring HP/PP while you patrol!
#Level up. You restore HP and PP fully when leveling up, so try leveling up once you are out of PP and low on HP.
#Steal it. Get an [[HP_restorers#HP_Returned_from_Damage|HP stealing]] or [[HP_restorers#PP_Returned_from_Damage|PP stealing]] item and basically heal yourself when beating up foes.
#Rest. It only costs time, and if done with a Night Cap/Deluxe Lux Leather Chair/Wiggum Wigwam, can be extremely effective.
#Use Items. If you get them from patrolling, it's free. Don't bother buying such items; the hospital costs less.
#Use healing skills. Sometimes, if you need HP, restoring PP and then using skills to heal is more efficient. Remember that the Karma Charm also improves the cost and effect of healing spells.
#Visit the Hospital/Enlightenment Center. It costs quite a bit of cash, but there's no time cost.
#Set your sidekick to "message therapist". There are much better uses for your sidekick, though.

Q: How do I solve this quest? I forgot! 
A: Either check your journal for a hint, or consult this wiki.

Q: ARRRRRGGGGGG MASO IS KILLING ME!!! 
A: In "Account Settings" you can drop any number of the restrictions on your run. Of course, this will reduce your mettle award, but if you don't like Maso, the mettle sacrifice should be worth it.

==Retcon as an Elemental==
When retcon first appeared, the majority of active players dropped what they were doing to experience this new system. When choosing a ‘starting’ class, I opted for the Elemental! Why? ‘Cause being an elemental served me well. The high damage this class is capable of dealing, and the passive skills which restore and allow for more PP were brilliant. Along with the vast amount of TNT that I used, as an elemental I reached level 161. So it was an easy option. Oh, and breathing underwater is cool.
I soon realised that with only limited pulls and without maxed skills, the class was a lot harder to use than I had anticipated. But with a little practise, you can have an eventful, beneficial run – resulting in a good experience and some awesome skills to carry around with you.

*The Outset and the Skills

We all set different limitations upon ourselves. No pulls, some pulls, all items, various caffeine and sugar restrictions… the list goes on. Some players stick to their planned limits – others drop them. Unless it’s really boring you, try sticking to your plan – you’ll learn from it in the long run. It’s also good to have your eyes on a skill that you want to ‘perm’, or learn permanently. Here is a list of the elemental skills in order of level:
Proper grounding and Throwing sparks (both Level 1), Air shield, Ice bolt, Groundquake, Proper Hydration, Lightning bolt, Fire Shield, Stone Armour, Tornado, Lifeblood Manipulation, Metalmorph, Firestorm, The Fire Within (Obtained at level 14 – there currently is no level 13 skill), Sundowner Breeze. (There isn’t yet a level 16 spell either)

*The Issues

From an outside standpoint, there are a couple of issues with this class. The first is low HP, which is fine – unless you’re facing a boss who can hit hard! The second would be lack of low level healing. Whilst Lifeblood Manipulation when maxed is awesome, it’s no good to you at level 4. The next problem I’ve encounter is the amount of damage I receive.

*Issue 1 - HP

Whether you deal with these issues is your call. Pulling Max HP modifier items, such as the Box Pill, would be a waste of a pull to anyone with pull’s, and isn’t an option for someone who has a complete pull restriction.
If you’re allowing skills you’ve picked up, then Aura: Vigor, the level 12 Psion skill can help. Maxed, it gives +30% Maximum HP and regenerates 5 HP per turn. If you don’t allow skills, then it’s no good to you. And another downside is playing as a Psion! :P
The best way to overcome this is simple: don’t get hit! Use Air shield and Stone Armour to boost defence, and try to kill things before they kill you – max out a spell! Lightning bolt is a good bet for that.

*Issue 2 – Low Level Healing

For the next issue, the lack of low level healing, there are a few solutions. Again, these only apply if they fit your limitations.
The most obvious, and accessible, would be to ‘perm’ First Aid (a gadgeteer skill). It’s cheap to use and can be cast inside or outside of fights. Or ‘perming’ Starfish Regeneration (a Naturalist skill) passively restores HP between turns.
Resting is free, but costs time!
The hospital is an option, it costs no time, but does require valuable chips!
Or if you’re lucky enough to own one, using the Gigaguy cannon can help, as it drops restoratives, both HP and PP.
As with the first issue, it’s up to you whether it’s something you are worried about.
The next area is damage received. My favourite way to combat this to boost initiative and spell damage, and kill the thing before it has a chance to kill you! There are so many items, strategies and ideas that conflict on this idea, so I’m not going to add mine to the mix. However, an all-round solution would be to ‘perm’ Battle Armour (Gadgeteer), Premonition (Psion) and Sniper (Gadgeteer), which are all passive, boosting defence (BA) and initiative (P+S). Stone Armour, an elemental skill you’ll learn at level 8, can help reduce hits taken and boost against various elements.
Ready to make the jump?
I know you’re bored after ready my ramblings (heck, you’ve probably just skipped it!) but hold on before you dive in - unless you want to do a maso run – ‘cause you can’t pull anything anyway!
Because I’m lazy, and because there is a Retcon guide kicking about, they discuss pull selection deeper. I won’t until I’ve experimented more with limited runs, I don’t want to be a hypocrite!

==Elemental Gear==

*The Talisman

You start with Ember in a bottle. If you’ve already completed a run as an elemental, you’ll have the Thunder in a bottle – which is better. Why? Spells cost less. And more max PP. Although the Ebon Eye of the Deep gives +15 spell damage, it’s a pain to find, fairly expensive to buy, and not too beneficial at high levels. So I’d value the Thunder over it. There is the Bowler’s sticky wicket or Tempest’s brooch (different name, same bonuses), with a whopping +30% Intellect, +20% spell damage and +5 damage absorption. Downside? Yes. +20% spell damage has little impact until you get further into the game. Similar situation for the intellect. Oh, and it has a -15% defence tagged on. If you’ve maxed Lightning bolt and beyond, this is epic. If not, then it’s not so good. So my personal opinion would be to use Grimm’s Bulwark/Rake's Garden Trowel. Why? It nullifies two of the problems – it restores HP (and PP!), so less chips spent healing, and more PP to play with. It gives a nice +20% to defence and resistance to all elements. The offense cost (-15%) is worth the benefits in my opinion. The major downside is the 5 star cost.

*The Equipment

I’m biased towards Wok items, because I have them. I understand however, that other players don’t. So based on that, I’m not going to list past Iotms, because if you have them you’ll probably know if it’ll help or not (and if you don’t know, send me a message or ask someone in game – there are a lot of helpful players!). So, here are some options:

*Helmet – There is one item which is easy, almost free, and is half given to you – the Filigreed Foil Hat. Remember that Gold foil you were given? Assemble it with a
baseball cap (grab one for 20 chips in Pilant’s hardware and software store in Somerset). No pull required and +3 spell damage. Once you get to level 8, the Foyal Crown with good power and +7XP is awesome, and would be a great way to level faster.

*Main Hand – This is a weak area. Archon’s staff is a pain to get, and can only be used from Level 8, but does give +10 spell damage and reduces turn duration by 5 seconds. Another option is fall’s staff (also level 8 required) from fighting in the cube. It’s +10% spell damage isn’t as good, unless your damage is more than 100, but isn’t hard to find (unless the RNG hates you). For a lot of damage, +25% to be precise, is Mento's fleshraker wand. Requires level 9, but worse, meeting one specific wandering villain, which isn’t easy. The pandimensional sceptre requires level 9, gives a nice +10 spell damage and -1 cost of combat spells. You may pick up a staff of meeting during the level 11 quest, and is good, but can’t be equipped before level 10. So picking an early weapon is difficult for casters. At level 6, combing a big honkin’ hammer (Which is easy to obtain from Zion tears headquarters!) and a xelor watch (easy drop from the casinos) to make Hammer time. The -5 seconds to turn duration is very helpful.

*Shirt/pants/full body – With a level 6 requirement, the Gothy black dress is a safe bet. Kill the neighbouring and neighbourly’s static villain for this item. It gives 5% spell damage and 15% intellect. Before then, if you’ve got two gold foils, the Gold plated poncho and Gilded leggings between them give + 2 PP and +2 HP per turn. However, if you’ve completed a run as an elemental, and have unlocked the shirt, go for that from level 9!

*Gloves – Not much choice. Use whatever. You’ll pick up force gloves at level 7, so they’re always an option.

*Boots – You get given a pair of boots during the level 3 quest, the skeptic sandals. After this, Biff Socko’s socks (level 5 requirement) for some defence. Stamped boots of stamping, made using gold foil again, require level 7 but are a really useful item.

*Accessories – Requiring level 6 and 30 crime buster IOUs is the karma charm. A seriously good item, with +20% spell damage and -1 spell cost. At level 9, the Aquamarine ion stone gives +10% spell damage. Before then, I’d recommend the Embossed Emblem. Again the gold foil is useful, combining with a seventh of nine to give a nice +4 XP per combat, and giving the opportunity to stun.

*Transport – The paradime device and Lexura Infinides D-8 are both great transport items.

*Offhand – If you want to use any of the Crime buster store items, including pre-pared skill points, then the Black Box. But for pure Elemental spell stuff, the Number one fan is the way to go. With +6 spell damage, a nice +3 PP per turn and no level requirement, Throwing sparks suddenly becomes useful against foes, killing those elderly bowlers with ease. Plus more PP is great later on. Or for noncombat, which speeds up quests, the Rolled Doll Dahl.

==Slaying the Mick as an Elemental==
The Mick is easy to kill as an Elemental once you know how. One word: Tornado.

Max this level 9 skill out (so either save 10 skill points, or save 6 and use the bonuses from the trout master, or use crime buster IOUs to buy skill points) for some destruction. Importantly, Tornado shreds his to hit chance, so after 3 or 4 uses – he’s generally pretty useless. That doesn’t been he can’t hit, so if you’ve you got the PP, I recommend killing him solely using Tornado – it does enough damage to finish him in a few shots.

==Permanent skill selection==
Rewards? - SKILLS! In destroying the Mick, speaking to Rand and then to Susan – you have the device set-up in your hideout. Whilst you could choose to carry on – there’s farming and higher level content amongst other things out there- If you feel like, you can start all over again. But this time, you’ll have learned a new skill, which your character will permanently remember!

So choose the class, various restrictions etc... That you want. After checking through the limitations, right at the bottom of the page is a scroll down box. From this little beauty, you can choose the skill you want to ‘perm’!
What do I permanently learn though? Whatever makes you happy. People annoy me sometimes – they’ll say skill x or skill y isn’t very good, but if you like it, who cares? If it makes you happy, and makes the game more enjoyable, then choose it. However, here are some skills you could consider and reasons why you could choose them:

*The Fire Within – When maxed, this will passively boost spell damage by 10%, and max PP by 20%. With no points invested, it still gives a nice +10% Max PP boost. Downsides: The spell damage and PP doesn’t help low levels too much, because the amount of damage Throw Sparks does is so low - but obviously it’s better than nothing. It requires you adventuring to level 14 to earn it, which isn’t really a problem, but is annoying if you’re like me – lazy! Other than the PP, there isn’t much benefit for Naturalist and Gadget class – unless you’ve got Firestorm permed, and are blasting foes with firestorm as a naturalist (which would be quite cool!)

*Sundowner Breeze – What does it do? It’s a buff that gives +50 foe toughness. In more basic lingo, that’s 25 XP. Per turn. What’s not to like about that! Well, +50 foe toughness isn’t easy! It in essence gives your opponent Performance Enhancing drugs, Speed, RAGE and fearlessness – they hit seriously hard! Even the little old lady in the neighbourhood gets mean. See the problem? That’s tough for a low level to handle. Very tough. Oh, and a 30PP cost to use the buff is tough on resources. I like this skill though, especially in the middle levels.

*Firestorm – As a high level offense spell, this is as good as it gets. Massive damage. It’s easy to obtain, only requires level 12 to obtain it and 14PP to cast. That’s cool. Downsides? Can’t see too many. Other than if you don’t want to use spells in other class runs, then it would be pointless. But it’s a useful weapon in your arsenal!

*Lifeblood Manipulation – When maxed, it gives a full heal for 15 PP. That’s nice. Problems? Not great for low levels. However, this is useful for any class.

*Tornado – This is the Elemental’s Mick slaying skill. This maxed is a useful tool against any boss as any class. A 10 PP cost isn’t too bad either!

*Stone Armour – A nice buff, a good bit of resistance and defence. I like it a lot. However, if defence is what you’re after, Battle Armour (a gadgeteer skill) provides much more defence. So this makes a nice supplemental defence booster. And the resistances are good too.

*Fire shield – This makes being hit slightly more acceptable. This can hit 25, and is very useful against bosses. If you did tornado the Mick, chances are he got 3 or 4 hits on you. With this running, that could be extra 75-100 damage. It all adds up folks!

*Lightning Bolt – A nice spell, not too cost effective, but still powerful enough to cause some harm. Another tidy elemental spell for the arsenal!

*Proper Hydration – Passive skill, regenerates PP. If you haven’t got fancy regenerating items, and you like spamming spells and buffs, this is your friend. When maxed, this regenerates 5 PP per turn.

*As a first skill, I’d go for Proper Hydration. It helps with every class!

*Note: I will at some point introduce a pull/equip table!

Retcon Guide

2010-11-24T19:43:36Z

Strlikecrazy: /* Specific Retcon Walkthroughs */

This guide assumes you are somewhat familiar with the mechanics behind Retcon.

If you want to experience the joy of overcoming Retcon and discovering its ins and outs on your own, immediately press the "back" button on your browser or close this tab/window, then continue enjoying Twilight Heroes.

If you want help and don't mind spoiling a little of Retcon's mystique, keep reading.

(work in progress, feel free to correct or add)

==What do I get out of Retcon?==

There are several rewards for whaling on the Mick endlessly, including:
# [[:Category:Quest Rewards|Quest rewards]]. Quest items such as the Skeptic Sandals are removed, but you get to keep Gold Coins, Blue Chip, bonus skill points etc. if you haven't sold/used them.
# [[metal medal of mettle|Medals of Mettle]], based on the difficulty of your run. These can either be combined to make [[Supersolid mettle medal|a fairly useful early-game accessory]] or to buy powerful gear/bonuses at Nocturne's shop.
# *If* your run was worth more than 1 mettle, you get to "perm" one skill you have learned so far and keep it for all of your subsequent runs(except no-permed skill ones, of course).
# Bragging Rights for "maso" runs, those set to maximum mettle. 
# The most important: Lulz!

==Before Retcon==
All optional, but these precautions may save you a lot of trouble later.
*If you have [[positronic computer]]s, swap them with [[electronic computer|electronic ones]]. You're going to lose whatever you have installed in your computer labs.
*Obtain as many as you can/want of the "items" to pull (listed below).
*If you don't want extra items cluttering up your Deep Storage screen, clear out your inventory by putting stuff in your Momento case, storing it in Hideout (don't forget it's there), or selling it.
*Make sure your Sidekick has at least the skills [[Jujitsu expert]], [[Documentarian]], [[Flea market trader]] and [[Egyptian knife fighter]]/[[Karate expert]].

==Pick Your Retcon==

Not all retcons are created equal. An evaluation of the merits of each.

===Class===
Here is a generalization of the various strengths and weaknesses of each class.
* [[Naturalist]]
:* Pros: Very powerful offensive skills, high HP, decent combat stats.
:* Cons: Lack of self-healing, late-game normal attack is relatively inaccurate.
* [[Elemental]]
:* Pros: Powerful offensive spells, high PP, decent self-buffs.
:* Cons: Fairly weak combat stats, low HP.
* [[Gadgeteer]]
:* Pros: Excellent combat stats, great self-healing, offensive spells weaken enemies.
:* Cons: Offensive spells do little damage, some permed skills don't benefit other classes much.
* [[Psion]]
:* Pros: Excellent combat stats at low level, high PP, good farming skills, good offensive spells.
:* Cons: Low HP, weak combat stats at high level.

Part of the fun of retcon is trying them all and combining their skills together. Beginners might find it easy to go with naturalist, since they have the easiest time taking down tough bosses.

===Items/Pulls===
You have several options.
* All items available immediately (-4 mettle)- While it may be tempting to immediately have access to any powerful gear and consumables you have, the -4 mettle will set you back quite a bit if you plan on shopping at Nocturne's.
* Max pulls (10/day) and get a break after 48 hours of patrolling(-2 mettle)- Similar to the previous option
* Max pulls (10/day) (0 mettle)- This is the baseline option. If you find you have too many items to grab, go for the "some pulls" option instead.
* Some pulls (5/day) (+2 mettle)- This option requires much more consideration and efficiency than "max pulls", since you only have 5.
* No pulls (+5 mettle)- A very difficult option, since, aside from free pulls, you'll have to loot/purchase almost any and all items you want, including certain quest-required items.

===Skills===
* All permed skills available (0 mettle)- This is a good option for later runs, considering some permed skills benefit greatly.
* Permed skills remembered, but only class skills can have skill points applied (+2 mettle)- Having your non-class permed skills left at lv. 0 isn't that bad, especially if you want to focus on putting SP into class skills you believe are equally worthy.
* No permed skills remembered (+5 mettle)- The only permed skill you could possibly have on your first retcon is [[Precompletion_Pro]], which isn't of much value compared to the extra mettle, so your first retcon run won't suffer with this option. However, part of what makes repeated retcons easy is the extra permed skills. If you want a fresh challenge, this is the option for you.

===Food===
* Both caffeine and sugar (0 mettle)- No sacrifice made. Not a bad idea, especially if you want to finish the retcon fast.
* Decaf (no caffeine) (+3 mettle)- Statistically, this is less efficient than Diet. With sugar only, you get only .5-1 hours a day for 3 mettle, unless you decide to pull high-level sugar items. Compare this with the 2-3 hours a day for +2 mettle, and Decaf pales in comparison to Diet.
* Diet (no sugar) (+2 mettle)- This is the option probably best suited for those who want a small challenge with regard to turns.
* Naturally hyper: no caffeine or sugar, but +1 hour/day (+3 mettle)- Better than decaf, since you gain 1 hour automatically, where with decaf, 1 hours is the most you could hope to gain on a normal basis. Still not as efficient as Diet, however.
* Abstainer (no caffeine, no sugar) (+5 mettle)- With this, you will only receive 45-60 turns a day, plus level-up time bonuses, but if you can stand it, the +5 mettle will be well worth the extra mile.

===SideKick/Understudy===
* Sidekick with you from the beginning (0 mettle)- The sidekick can provide a bonus to defense, items/chips, damage-dealing and any other number of things, and if you're struggling with no sidekick, this can be a good choice.
* Sidekick has to be recruited at level 9 (+2 mettle)- This isn't too great a sacrifice, given that your sidekick, being based on your level, is fairly weak anyway until you hit level 9. On the other hand, short help is better than no help. It depends on how much you enjoy the benefits of what the low-level sidekick can bring you.

==Items to Pull==

Recommended. Note: Naturalists fare better with melee weapons, Gadgeteers should stick to ranged weapons, and Elementalists and Psions are good with either, as with them, (ranged weapons tend towards more reliable but less damaging, and melee tends towards less reliable but more damaging).
Special Note: Items that are either Items of the Month (IotM) or that come from an IotM are usually superior to their normal equivalents. However, many of them have high level requirements or can't be used during pull-restricted runs.

===Utilities===

[[Mister Tea]] - Extremely efficient use of caffeine, gives 3 whole hours. Requires level 5, but coffee shop items should do in the meantime.

[[Blue chip]], [[gold coin]] - Basically a ton of free chips. Two gold coins can easily finance you with no trouble until you beat the Mick.

[[Stroopwafel]] - If you picked a sugar-included option, this is the most efficient of the common sugar items. Granted, you can't use it until level 7, but it's still efficient.

[[Eye podule]]/[[SQUID player]] - Both useful for getting free XP from SQUID disks. Both items are fairly hard to get without pulling, so if you have nothing better to pull, pull these. Eye Podule has a slightly higher level requirement, but gives slightly more XP.

[[Bonus skill point]]s, [[pre-prepared skill point]]s - Self-explanatory. Best to wait until later in the game to pull and use these.

[[Brewmeister's master potion]] - A very powerful buff item if you're having trouble getting past a particular boss.

[[Ticketmaster's ticket punch]] - A good one-shot damage item if you're having trouble damaging a particular boss.

[[Night cap]], [[deluxe Lux Leather chair]], [[Wiggum wigwam]] - Eventually, you'll have to rest at one point or another. These will make resting a lot more effective. The last two are generally superior to night cap, but can be hard to find. Night cap requires level 5, others don't have a level requirement.

===Early Game Equips===

[[Paradime device]] - +2 PP and +1 HP regeneration *and* +5 dodge. No level requirement. Definitely worth a pull.

[[Talisman]] - Pick your Talisman of choice and immediately change it at level 1, so you only lose a few XP. The [[Swedish Navy Wrench]] is notable for its dodging and reflex bonuses.

[[Icicle]] - Good early-game melee weapon. Requires only level 2.

[[Filigreed foil hat]], [[gold-plated poncho]], [[gilded leggings]] - Excellent early-game equips, probably the best you can do until level 4. You don't have to pull these if you're willing to spend Gold Foil making them yourself instead.

[[Raskolnikov's fur hat]] - Just as good as the filigreed foil hat. Requires level 2.

[[Supersolid mettle medal]] - Excellent early-game accessory. It's a free pull too (see below).

[[Electronic computer]]s, [[positronic computer]]s - If you have them, bring them in, and save yourself some time looking for components during the level 5 quest. For software to use when not decrypting, [[personal copy of the internet]] is good for harder (and thus more rewarding) fights, [[Garcia's Traffic Avoider software‎]] can speed up certain quests, [[IMyself blog software]] will give free XP, though not as much as the personal copy of the internet, and [[GigantoFirm LookOut Calendar]] simply saves time.

[[Number one fan]] - Restores 3 PP AND has a 6 point spell damage bonus. A very worthy choice if you are burning through PP too quickly. Still useful through the mid-game.

[[Rolled Doll dahl]]- An offhand source of +noncombats, which should speed up quite a few quests. Also, no level requirement and stays useful for most of your run.

[[embossed emblem]]-Provides an incredible +4 XP boost, as well as a slight edge in combat. Indispensable for level grinding. Requires level 4.

===Mid Game Equips===

[[Lexura Infinides D-8]] - PP regeneration and range 4. No level requirement.

[[Bass-O-Matic 77]] - Pull this so you can ask for loot (a whopping 2500 chips) from the [[Go Fish]] mid-quest reward and still have an easy time beating up [[Troutmaster]].

[[Harbor pearl]]/[[sub-ma-car]] - If you aren't an Elemental, pull one of these so you can breathe water. Otherwise, you'll either have to equip the [[Bayside Dive Shop]] items, which are both a hassle and a disadvantage, or you'll have to fight in the difficult [[the Docks|Docks]] area to get the Harbor Pearl again. Save some trouble.

[[Mighty quill]]/[[Repeating rifle]]/[[Recoil foil rifle]]/[[Foil foil]] - All are very powerful weapons and will remain so for a while. Requires level 5.

[[Foyal crown]] - The bonus to base metal drops may be useless inrun, but the +7 XP/turn will speed you up a bit. Requires level 8. Could also be assembled if you grab a royal crown at level 9 and still have foil left.

[[Karma charm]] - Immensely useful for spell-reliant heroes. Still useful if you want to save PP healing or buffing. Requires level 5.

[[Blue Elsa's blue blade]], [[Biff Socko's socks]], [[Big Earl's suspenders]], [[gothy black dress]], [[Malappropriator's ski beanery]], [[The Shark's darts]]. Requires levels 4-7.

[[Phial of Samuels]] - Arguably one of the best accessories in the mid-game during normal patrolling. Extra item drops, a ton of PP restored every turn and, as icing on the cake, more maximum PP.

Anything from [[Nocturne's Shop]] - Much better than most normal looted/chip-bought equipment you can get at those levels. Requires levels 5-9.

[[Verse of the dodo]]/[[PDA]]- Bonus to XP = shorter retcon. Same bonus, but the Verse of the Dodo is superior for it's slightly lower level requirement at level 6, where the PDA is level 7.

[[Jetpack]]/[[Pegasus]]/[[Hot rodimus]] - These are useful for getting to the [[Rejected Rogue Ranch]]. The jetpack requires the [[Passable Pilot]] skill, the pegasus requires level 12, and the hot rodimus requires level 15.

[[Personal copy of the internet]]/ other [[software]] - The Internet is particularly useful because it is never consumed when installed. Anyway, if you need to make your foes tougher so they give you more XP, use Internet. Otherwise, don't. Other software just saves you time that would be spent looking for data plates. The +noncombat software([[Garcia's Traffic Avoider software]])could also speed up quests significantly.

[[Sneakiers]] -The +noncombat on these shoes can speed up the level 8, 9 and 10 quests significantly. Requires level 8.

[[Binoculars]] - Hey, more items! More effective at its job than any other available option. Requires level 7.

[[work gloves]] - Not many significant gloves in the mid-game. This is one of them. No fumbles is extremely useful if you don't have high reflexes. Requires level 6.

===Late Game Equips===

[[Chuck van Arnolde's tank top]], [[Delilah's shears]], [[Doctor Worm's surgical gloves]], [[The Baroness's stiletto boots]], [[The Tenderizer's hammer]], [[Kookoo's pie pitcher]], [[the golem's Glock]], [[chalkboard shield]], [[Thundarr's photon blade]] - All villain drop items. Not as powerful as the two categories below, but still better than normal loot/purchases. Requires levels 8-13.

[[brick wall]] - If you need a cheap source of damage absorption, this could be an useful offhand. The strength penalty is irrelevant if you use ranged weapons. Requires level 9.

[[xentrium breeches]], [[xentrium breastplate]]-If worn together, very effective at reducing patrol time, at the cost of decreased combat ability. If you have only one, you might as well use the [[Universal Unitard of Ultimate Utility]] instead since it gives the same time bonus as one xentrium clothing piece well as an XP bonus. Require level 10.

[[Prefontaine's shoes]], [[xentrium boots]]- Both are footwear that reduce patrolling time. Prefontaine's Shoes have a superior time bonus, but are only equippable at level 10, which Xentrium Boots can be used at level 7.

Anything the [[hint giver]] trades Rejected Rogue Ranch items for - Probably the best non-IotM set of items you can obtain at level 10. Requires level 10. Of special note are the [[Universal Unitard of Ultimate Utility]], [[Diamond Dagger of Derring-Do]] and [[Stiletto Shoes of Stealthy Subtlety]], which, although outclassed in sheer combat ability by other gear, will shorten your retcon quite a bit with their respective time/XP, XP and non-combat rate bonuses.

[[Quizzically Quivering Quadraphonic Quad-Quadrant]]-A good off-hand for increasing both damage and defense. Requires level 11.

Anything the [[Wade-bot Base]] trades Space Station items for - Probably the best non-IotM set of items you can obtain at level 12. Requires level 12.

[[Paddlebot logo]]/[[Fordbot logo]] - Excellent stat bonuses. Requires level 9.

[[High-jump boots]]/[[Gnat gloves]] - Necessary during the level 11 quest, and also necessary to explore the roofs of downtown area, which brings some very good enemy drops.

[[Relaxing flats]] - These provide some amazing PP/HP regeneration, great for patrolling, although they're available when retcon should be almost over. Requires level 10.

===Free Pulls===

These are items that you can pull regardless of how many normal pulls you have left, and do not take up your pulls.

*[[White elephant gift]]
*[[Plaudits candy bar]]
*[[Razzberry sticker]]
*[[Metal medal of mettle]]
*[[Denser mettle medal]]
*[[Heavy mettle medal]]
*[[Supersolid mettle medal]]

==Skills to Perm==
Every retcon, you can choose one skill to pull, making the game much easier.

These are the most important skills to learn. All skills have their merits, but these are the most useful for a smooth retcon. Partially based on [[User: Valera|Valera's]] and [[User: Cristiona|Cristiona's]] opinions.

===Recommended===

[[Lightning Bolt]] - Lightning bolt has just the right level of power for an offensive spell- not so much you rapidly burn PP, not so little you have little use for it later. Just be aware when you are fighting lightning resistant opponents.

[[Trample of the Rhino]] - Indispensable when fighting bosses. It's less reliable than lightning bolt and so not as well suited to normal fights, but, if the hits connect, it can easily take down bosses in one or two turns.

[[Maul of the Cave Bear]] - Good for similar reasons to Trample of the Rhino. It takes more PP, so is not well suited for low levels.

[[Basic Martial Arts]] - The to-hit bonus is indispensable at low-level, regardless of who you are.

[[Advanced Martial Arts]] - Less useful than Basic Martial Arts because it only improves general offense, as opposed to the to-hit you really need at low level, but still a great help.

[[Battle Armor]] - Similar concept to Basic Martial Arts. Improves defense, which is also important.

[[Aura: Vim]] - Extremely useful. The extra to-hit and dodging abilities are crucial at low levels.

[[Proper Hydration]] - The extra PP will go a long way if you use offensive skills often.

[[First Aid]]/[[Knit Flesh]]/[[Knit Bone]]- You only need one of these. Knit Bone is the most efficient, but usually overkill at low-levels. Knit Flesh is well suited to low-levels due to low PP cost, but it the least efficient. First Aid is between both of them. FA can also be used in combat, but it's value there is debatable.

===Also Useful===

[[Upgrade Armor]] - Very flexible and cheap bonus to various stats. Motorized is good for certain areas, Resistance is good for certain bosses and areas, and Superabsorbance is general use.

[[Stone Armor]] - A much needed bonus to various elemental resistances, especially electricity.

[[Firestorm]]/[[Psionic Blast]] - Similar to Lightning Bolt. These are too expensive/overkill for early game, and still PP-expensive late game but it packs a better punch than lightning bolt. Note that Psionic Blast is weak against robots, even with Electronic Understanding, so Fire Storm may be slightly preferable.

[[Metal Detector]] - Extra items. 'Nuff said.

[[Armadillo Armor]] - Extra defense. Not as constant as Battle Armor, but still useful.

[[Starfish Regeneration]] - Generally speaking, PP is better than HP, so Starfish takes a backseat to Proper Hydration. Still a worthy skill to perm.

[[Aura: Mystery]], [[The Fire Within]] - Only good for "casters"- characters who rely on spells rather than weaponry for damage.

[[Aura: Vigor]] - Not anywhere as useful as Aura: Vim, but at high levels, it's the best choice for that second aura slot if you're not going to be casting spells much.

[[Shock Grenade]] - Good for softening up enemies and bosses and even does a little damage as a bonus.

[[Detachment]] - Mostly good for bosses, since the increased turn length detracts from using it during normal patrolling. The damage reduction is pretty good still.

[[Sniper]] - If you like using ranged weapons, this passive gives up to +25 ranged damage and +30 init, which could help immensely with tough fights.

==Dealing with General Situations FAQ==

Q: A boss is kicking my ass! 
A: 
*Load up on skill buffs and item buffs and double check your equipment is properly suited for the boss. 
*If you don't have a sidekick, consider getting a temporary combat-based one. 
*If you are a naturalist, just hit them repeatedly with Charge of the Bovine/Trample of the Rhino/Maul of the Cave Bear. Problem solved. 
*If you have some good offensive spells but are losing in normal combat, consider using those spells and changing your equipment loadout to improve intellect, defense and spell damage. 
*If you have a powerful damaging item like TNT or Ticketmaster's Ticket Punch, use them. 
*If you are engaging in normal weapon combat, use a glob of goo, rank bun, webbed sand or a Gadgeteer/Elemental weakening spell to soften them up. 
*Make sure you don't have any negative combat-related buffs on you, such as Listless, Weakened or Concussed. Internal Injuries and Needs Stitches are fine. 
*Go somewhere else, level up, come back, get revenge. 

Q: An area is kicking my ass! 
A: Don't go there. Find someplace better suited for your level. If you have any foe toughness inhancers, though, remove them and it might just work.

Q: An area I *must* be in is kicking my ass! 
A: 
*Check your equipment to see if it could be better. Remove foe toughness increasing items. 
*Level up and come back. 
*Make sure you don't have any negative buffs on you. 
*If you're a Psion or Elementalist, consider using offensive spells instead. Modify equipment accordingly. 
*If you're a naturalist, spam Charge/Trample/Maul.

Q: I can't get an item! It just won't drop! 
A: Equip items/software that improve drop rate and combat encounter rate.

Q: I need a specific encounter! 
A: Equip items/software that improve noncombat encounter rate and just be patient.

Q: How should I restore HP/PP? I keep running out! 
A: There are eight ways, in rough order of time/money /PP efficiency.
#Increase your regeneration. Skills, equipment, and certain buff items can all do this. Totally free, and if done right, can end up fully restoring HP/PP while you patrol!
#Level up. You restore HP and PP fully when leveling up, so try leveling up once you are out of PP and low on HP.
#Steal it. Get an [[Category:HP_Returned/HP stealing]] or [[Category:PP_Returned/PP stealing]] item and basically heal yourself when beating up foes.
#Rest. It only costs time, and if done with a Night Cap/Deluxe Lux Leather Chair/Wiggum Wigwam, can be extremely effective.
#Use Items. If you get them from patrolling, it's free. Don't bother buying such items; the hospital costs less.
#Use healing skills. Sometimes, if you need HP, restoring PP and then using skills to heal is more efficient. Remember that the Karma Charm also improves the cost and effect of healing spells.
#Visit the Hospital/Enlightenment Center. It costs quite a bit of cash, but there's no time cost.
#Set your sidekick to "message therapist". There are much better uses for your sidekick, though.

Q: How do I solve this quest? I forgot! 
A: Either check your journal for a hint, or consult this wiki.

Q: ARRRRRGGGGGG MASO IS KILLING ME!!! 
A: In "Account Settings" you can drop any number of the restrictions on your run. Of course, this will reduce your mettle award, but if you don't like Maso, the mettle sacrifice should be worth it.

|desc=Armageddon. The end of not just the world but of everything. The Vikings called it Ragnarok, which is a pretty cool sounding word. It has a distinctive sound to it; it's almost an onomatopoeia.

This chess piece is like something Manowar would carry, and it has all the hardcore awesomeness that entails. Consequently, this is a very risky talisman to use. While it has exceptional powers, some of that destructive energy will wash back over you. It'll also destroy all your lands.

Strlikecrazy: /* Spaded Ideas */

sooner or later I will figure out the transportation template - malk

>.> there isn't one, it is covered by the item template.... --[[User:Reaper|Reaper]] 22:22, 22 September 2008 (MST)

First Tinker, now Blink, who will find it next?

Anyone spoiling this bitch yet? --[[User:Corrupt Shadow|CorruptShadow]] 22:56, 11 October 2008 (MST)
* Blink sent me the following, "Find the 4th [option] with the singing bird," and attached a [[verse of the dodo]]. I guess that might be the answer we were looking for? --[[User:Corrupt Shadow|CorruptShadow]] 17:46, 14 October 2008 (MST)

== Clues ==
*Blink has given out the following clues, which may contain red herrings:
**Blink recited part of the description for the Eagle Feather
**Blink recited part of the description for the trilobyte
**Blink mentioned welding (even though the feather and trilobyte doesn't have a weld attribute)
**Blink stated that none of the pinata items have anything to do w/ the pegasus
**Blink hinted at a new/undiscovered zone
**Blink gave out references to "singing birds in the background" - verse of the dodo?
*Blink's outfit (which may have nothing to do w/ the pegasus): capo, cap-o, rail gun, xentrium breastplate, sticky gloves, leather pants, sturdy boots, isotope meter, fordbot logo, fish whiskers, Paradox Naught
*Blink's reputation was "Vigilant"--[[User:Grimdel|Grimdel]] 14:56, 9 October 2008 (MST)

Some more clues given to me by Blink: 
- Lets just say, 2+2 has something to do with Pegasus. 
- 2+2 =4, but sometimes 4 is hiding because "7-8-9" 
- Once you get to that fat pidgeon, find the 4th. -0- Mischal 

Obviously, that final clue refers to the fourth choice which 'mystically' is rumored to appear on the Triassic non-combat. 4 might be hiding because it's 'not yet time' for it to come out. This is almost without a doubt the adventure that opens up during a certain time period- whether there are other factors involved, who knows. - Satan

== Spaded Ideas ==
*Blink's clues and nature of the Pegasus indicate that the [[Triassic Park and Bestiary]] plays a big part
*I tried using the 4x invisibility potions (made w/ the feather), and wearing a trilobyte while exploring the Bestiary - no go...--[[User:Grimdel|Grimdel]] 14:56, 9 October 2008 (MST)
tried the same thing with leached liquid and i also tried it with verse of the dodo and 7th of 9 equipped, and with invisibility and leached it didn't work either--[[User:Pseudoname|Pseudoname]] 16:11, 14 October 2008 (MST)

I know it only affects being in chat, but ring of fellowship? - Str

{{league|league=League of Zeroes (LoZ)|link=http://www.the-nesbits.com/loz/}}

==About Me==
Joined 6th of November after seeing the link on the Kol wiki. Thought id check it out and was surprised by how good the game was, despite the shocking lag! After a few days of playing TH i met Elric, Smeg and Gihorn in chat, where we decided that the game could do with a League/clan/guild. After deciding it was to be called the League of Zeroes, i set off to make the forums - which i failed miserably at. On the 14th of November 2007, the League was born, when Smeg created [http://leagueofzeroes.bravehost.com/index.html This website], which became our homepage and website front. Then our forums were made. Thus sprang to life our guild.
