This was my first real ring of wealth run and I think I went a little overboard. I got a seed that had a cursed +2 ring of wealth on floor 1. I knew right then and there what I had to do... I died a horrible death to a flaming crab champion (9 challenges) on floor 3 and cried.

Then I remembered that I could use the seed and just do the run for pure enjoyment. It was a blast!

I had a +4 ring by floor 2 which was kind of crazy. All scrolls went into that! I eventually found another +2 ROW and together with my +17 I was able to farm some +10 items and was eventually able to get another +10 ring. Transmuted that into Arcana and used the multiplicity curse on myself to spawn thousands of succubi... I tanked their hits with my greatshield while they fell to their gruesome deaths below. Lots of fun! 10/10 stars!

Seed: SJF-KWH-NPJ I'm on 2.1.4 though so it may not work for beta

The ROW let's you find items above +3!?

Wow!

[–] disce_pati@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It in fact guarantees special equipment drops with upgrades every so many enemies. The number of upgrades on the ring is related to the number of upgrades on the drop but it's not 1-to-1 though. The minimum drop level is (1+upgrades)/2 so at +5, you start getting+3 special equipment drops

Incredible! Thanks!

Strange I'm on 2.1.4 as well but with that seed I get only a standard, non-upgraded ring of sharpshooting (and it's not cursed). Maybe you can check if the seed it's the right one (unless I am doing something wrong)?

[–] disce_pati@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

There's 2 rings. One is in a chest (ring of sharpshooting) and one is in the crystal key room with the chest (+2 wealth, cursed)

[–] tsl@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well, that was it! I now found it! Thank you very much!

[–] disce_pati@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

No problem! Have fun!

The text input used to create the level. Using the same seed will generate the same drops again. I'm assuming, never played this game but that's typically what seed means.

[–] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They were asking for the seed, not asking what seeds are.

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

... I'm neurodivergent, so thank you

[–] HandsomePotatoe@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How? The highest I ever gotten any item to was 5+

[–] MrRedstoner@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dump all scrolls into it and blacksmith. Started at 2, +15 SoU, +1 smith = 18. Then the rest of the gear is farmed as drops thanks to high level RoW

[–] disce_pati@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That's exactly it!

[–] gabelstapler@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

How did you get so many Upgrades? I only know the Scrolls of Upgrade scattered around the Dungeon and the blacksmith to Upgrade your stuff.

[–] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Turns out a high level Ring of Wealth makes high level stuff drop.

[–] disce_pati@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

So I just realized it shows upvotes and downvotes. Apparently 2 people think this is crap, lol. Can't make everyone happy

[–] Bartleby@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So I'm pretty new to this game and have what may be a dumb question.

How does one start with a seed?

[–] gabelstapler@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Select the Hero, then the gears to enter a seed.

[–] Bartleby@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I think my issue is that I've not finished it yet. :)

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

incredible, thanks
