Occurs when fighting the horror attacking Seaside Town.

Notes

• Eldritch effluvium drops are increased by wearing eldritch hat, eldritch pants, and eldritch hammer.
• Sssshhsssblllrrggghsssssggggrrgglsssshhssslblgl "misses" you for the first five combat rounds, then hits you and you automatically lose.

• You are not, however, Beaten Up.

• If you fumble your weapon and thus lose all your HP, the battle will end immediately and you will be Beaten Up. However, you will still collect eldritch effluvium and ichor as usual. Furthermore, you can fight this monster while Beaten Up, and the effect will be removed at the end of the battle.
• Sssshhsssblllrrggghsssssggggrrgglsssshhssslblgl is immune to stunning:

"Hah, you think that will stop me," a voice booms in your mind.

• Sssshhsssblllrrggghsssssggggrrgglsssshhssslblgl can block items:

"A tentacle lashes out and stops you from using that before you even start."

• If you have Ambidextrous Funkslinging, it can block both items.

Eldritch Ichor

• Currently, you must have Crappily Disguised as a Waiter active to acquire any eldritch ichor.

• The amount of eldritch ichor dropped is based on how much damage you did during the fight: sqrt(damage/1000). For those too lazy to do math, the progression is 1000, 4000, 9000, 16000, 25000, 36000, 49000, 64000, 81000, 100000, and 121000. The Hagnk's Gratitude effect gives an additional 1-3 ichor.

• • You surprised him by serving him some pain instead of a delicious meal! (when vulnerable to Crappily Disguised as a Waiter)
• Without the appropriate effect, you were unable to collect eldritch ichor:
  • Your attacks don't seem to be working, you'll have to figure out how to tune your damage. Maybe some sort of disguise to trick him. (without Crappily Disguised as a Waiter, post-Second Eldritch Incursion)

History

• In order to collect eldritch ichor, Sssshhsssblllrrggghsssssggggrrgglsssshhssslblgl required having one of several effects (which changed throughout the event):
  • You^[sic] boiling hot-blood has allowed you to pierce through his horrific protections and deal actual damage! (when vulnerable to Hot Blooded)
  • Filled with a spirit of companionship and humming a pleasant tune, you break through his protections! (when vulnerable to Chorale of Companionship (effect))
  • In your sugar-filled state, you manage to blast through his defenses and deliver some real damage! (when vulnerable to So You Can Work More...)
  • It must be the right turn to damage this beast, because you appear to have done some real damage. (when vulnerable to Timer 7)
  • Your lack of care allows you get inside his defenses and do some damage! (when vulnerable to Apathy)
  • You're not sure how many eldritch horrors you are fighting in your goofed up state, but you think you hurt at least one of them! (when vulnerable to Hopped Up on Goofballs)
  • The poison in your blood osmoses into him and makes your attacks work! (when vulnerable to Hardly Poisoned at All)
  • You surprised him by serving him some pain instead of a delicious meal! (when vulnerable to Crappily Disguised as a Waiter)
• Without the appropriate effect, you were unable to collect eldritch ichor:
  • Your attacks don't seem to be working, maybe you should check with Dr. Stuart in his Science Tent. (without appropriate effect)
  • Your attacks don't seem to be working, you'll have to figure out how to tune your damage. Maybe some sort of disguise to trick him. (without Crappily Disguised as a Waiter, post-Second Eldritch Incursion)
• Initially, Sssshhsssblllrrggghsssssggggrrgglsssshhssslblgl's vulnerability to Timer 7 was accidental. The effect ID for Timer 7 is the same as the item ID for the bottle of goofballs, and for roughly the first half of that day it used the text describing Hopped Up on Goofballs. Subsequently, the message was changed to better reference Timer 7, and Goofballs was required at a later time.
• Each combat round, you get (many) messages indicating how well everybody else is doing:

Combat rages around you and you see that <player_name> damaged Sssshhsssblllrrggghsssssggggrrgglsssshhssslblgl for <N> damage using glancing blows, regular attacks, skills, clever tricks, spells, and their cheffstaff^[sic].

• The verb appears to change based on increasing damage dealt: plinked, bothered, damaged, whomped, epically whomped, epically blasted, epically devastated, and super epically devastated.

• This monster could be fought while drunk.
• At about 3:18PM on February 3, 2017, the following appeared in chat:

Sssshhsssblllrrggghsssssggggrrgglsssshhssslblgl: I HAVE EVOLVED.

• Even after the end of the Second Eldritch Incursion, Sssshhsssblllrrggghsssssggggrrgglsssshhssslblgl can occasionally be encountered when casting Evoke Eldritch Horror (~5% chance). You can still acquire eldritch ichor if you are Crappily Disguised as a Waiter.
