Talk:Slime stack

From A KoL Wiki

You sling the slabs of slime at your foe. The corrosive nastiness eats into it, dealing 43 damage and leaving it significantly smaller.

Same message and damage rates against slimes, compared to the bats I first tested them with. --Vegan 10:34, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Am I alone in thinking that this should do Slime element damage?--AltyMcAltAlt 08:58, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Has anyone done any work on whether this item delevels and if so to what extent?--ThisisCarl

I did 517 damage to The Big Wisniewski with one (with a V mask equipped). --Eleron 06:01, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Funkslung two against an Ice Cube with a V mask equipped for 20998 and 17775 damage, and then used a third for 11938 damage. Failed against shadow, funkslung two against NS form 3 for 1950001 and 2173501 damage (with V mask). --Eleron 06:52, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Drop rate

There is evidence suggesting that the drop rate is per ascension, not per day. Spading has also revealed that the (100/(x+1))% chance is not at all close to correct. (In a quick test, the 20th stack dropped only 7 adventures after the 19th, and the 21st only 6 after the 20th, the 22nd only 6 after the 21st, and the 23rd only 3 after the 22nd). The first adventure with a charged slimeling per day will not at all be a guaranteed slime stack. --MindlessGames 08:38, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

  • Actually.. staring at the numbers a bit longer. 100/(x+1) could fit, if I instead look at the aggregate number of turns it's taking to get N slimes stacks (which would be N*(N-1)/2). Either way, it requires more than hand-wavy spading. --MindlessGames 11:18, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

There appears to be a cap on the number of slime stacks you can obtain/ascension. I've gotten only 12 after several hundred adventures.

de-leveling

Slime stacks seem to be doing about floor(10% of [Attack and Defense]) deleveling. So if a monster has 800 attack and 600 defense, it would remove about 80 attack, and about 60 defense. I'll look into it some more, but this is kinda tough to spade. --MindlessGames 03:11, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

  • After more spading, this seems to be spot-on floor(10%). --RoyalTonberry 22:17, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
