View source for Talk:Stocking Mimic

The Stocking mimic seems to level up based on Level squared = amount of candy eaten. So it takes 25 candies to get to level 5, 36 to get to level six, and so forth.

*Conveniently enough, this is exactly the way familiar experience works, wherein Familiar Level = sqrt(experience). Seems easy enough to say that one candy is equivalent to one point of experience. --[[User:Southwest|Southwest]] 06:00, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
*I didn't get the usual "<familiar> gains a pound!" message when my Stocking Mimic gained a pound. --[[User:Baltar|Baltar]] 21:23, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
**You're not alone. Neither from eating candy from inventory or after combat. --{{User:Club/sig}} 22:43, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Do certain functions have a minimum level? My stocking did nothing when level one, but began to attack and confuse between levels 2 and 4, and began to heal at level 5. It might be a coincidence, but I think that it bears looking into. [[User:Dr Strange|Dr Strange]] 06:17, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Candies appearing in bursts, Some times getting them within 3 combats of one another.  Can not find correlation between weight and drops.<br/>
Damage for attack message appears to be Weight to Weight+3 has worked for every tested weight from 12lbs to 33lbs.<br/>
Piddles - Belch the Rainbow - +11 damage of every element for 10<br/>
BitterSweetTarts - Full of Wist - +11 stat points per combat for 10<br/>
Polka Pop - Polka Face - +55(?)% item and meat drops for 10<br/>

Mine is showing a linear progression in experience / candy needs per level -- 25, 27, 29, 31 -- not the expected 25, 36, 49 ...  Am I totally confused or is this true for anyone else?  --[[User:Circaea|Circaea]] 15:15, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

*I think you don't understand the progression of square numbers. 12*12+25=13*13. 13*13+27=14*14. 14*14+29=15*15. 15*15+31=16*16. N*N+(2N+1)=(N+1)*(N+1). --{{User:Club/sig}} 18:47, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

We now have a definitive test to see which item are considered candy in KoL.  If if has a  <u>[feed to stocking mimic]</u> link beneath it, it's candy!

*Yeah what Culb said. :-P  I was going to make a simple change to {{tl|item}} and add candy=1 to it for categorization, but then I got stuck on the name. The obvious is just Category:Candy, but category names should be plural, so Category:Candies?, but is Candy a collective thing, so it can be plural already?, and there's the whole countable/uncountable... arg!  Is there an English major in the house?  Your degree will seem useful for once, hey-o! ;),  But seriously. What's the plural of candy? Candy or candies? If you say both, off to the moon with ya! Stupid trivial problem! ;) --[[User:JRSiebz|JRSiebz]] ([[User talk:JRSiebz|&#x260E;]]|[[Special:Contributions/JRSiebz|&#167;]]|[[Special:Listusers/sysop|&#8225;]]) 08:58, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
**I may not have a degree in English, but I am a technical writer, and I've encountered enough similar problems to be sure of this answer. Unless the countability (potential or actual) of a quantity of such objects is being considered, one uses the mass plural. "Fruit" is a good example. If there are an apple, an orange and a cherry on the table, one may say either "There is fruit on the table" - the number is not being considered - or "There are three fruits on the table" - the number is being considered. The category name should be the mass plural: "candy". --[[User:Kay Dekker|Kay Dekker]] 13:20, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
* {{CatLink|Candy}} is open for business.  I decided against modifying {{tl|item}} since "candy" is not displayed in the item template.

I think it's worth, for the moment at least, keeping a spading list here of things that have names and/or descriptions that may imply candiness but which have been found to fail the feedability test (eg marshmallows, lozenges as noted above). For instance, [[Mariner's Friend cough drops]] also aren't candy. --[[User:Kay Dekker|Kay Dekker]] 21:08, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

* Chewing gum on a string is not candy. --[[User:Rpxx|Rpxx]] 02:48, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

==Equipment==
When the mimic found himself a [[bag of many confections]], I didn't get the "You acquire an item" message as implied by the page. Did something change? And he equipped the item automatically, which was a surprize. I wondered why I couldn't find the item in inventory. --{{User:Club/sig}} 19:18, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

== Candy Drop Mechanic ==

It looks like candy drops increase until you get one, then once you get one, reset back, and start climbing over again.  The first adventure spent has a 1/11 chance of a candy drop, the second adventure (assuming the first didn't give a candy drop) has a 1/10 chance, third (assuming first two didn't drop one) is 1/9, until it becomes 1/1.  When the player gets a candy drop, the counter resets back to the 1/11, then 1/10 ... thing.  This means that on average, a player can expect it to take 6 turns for a piece of candy to drop (and at most 11 turns!).  The candy drop rolls to see just "if a candy should drop" and then if it should, it selects one of the three at random. --[[User:MindlessGames|MindlessGames]] 22:44, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

That doesn't match my spading today.  I spent 82 adventures with one and got 14 items which nicely matches your 6 turn average.  But ... I went spans of 13 turns in between items a couple times (rather than just the 11 you saw).  I'm also level 13 ... but I'm sure that is pure conicidence, right? --[[User:Kpsmith67|Kpsmith67]] 19:56, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

And I also agree with kpsmith67... unless there's something overriding the drop, which wouldn't make sense. I spent 17 advs (my first 17) just now before it dropped (and I'm not sure when it dropped when i left it yesterday) --[[User:Eror11|Eror11]] 00:42, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

More data: Out of 372 turns with the stocking (over a couple ascensions), it has dropped 22 Piddles, 17 BitterSweetTarts, and 19 Polka Pops.  The longest stretch between drops was 20 turns and the shortest was one turn (back to back drops).  That's an overall drop rate of 58/372 = 15.6% (one drop every 6.4 turns). --[[User:Kpsmith67|Kpsmith67]] 18:17, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

This is purely anecdotal at this point, but when I used the stocking early in a hardcore run, it seemed to drop way more BitterSweetTarts than anything else.  If people are collecting data on candy drops, they might want to break it down by character level, and possibly in or not-in HC/ronin status.  Jick might have made it drop the +stat candy at low levels.  Or I might have just hit a weird string of RNG. -[[User:Greycat|Greycat]] 15:20, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
:Sounds just like RNG to me, especially given how fast the first few levels can go (and thus how small the sample size is). --[[User:Lordebon|Lordebon]] 16:27, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

Just a bit of data.  Lvl 21, Ronin clear Accordion Thief.  Started a new Stocking Mimic (lvl 1) with buffs for weight (Empathy and Chorale, total of 16).  After 108 combat adventures, weight 40 lbs.  Bittersweettarts 5, Piddles 4, Polka Pop 8. Item drop +35% (including Quartet).  Not sure that helps much at this rate.  Didn't track times between drops or anything, since that's pretty obviously RNG.--[[User:Lukarnis|Lukarnis]] 19:57, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

If the candy-dropping probabilities listed are correct, then the expected number of turns between drops should be 14.6 turns.--[[User:Aaronoz|Aaronoz]] 19:18, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
*Nope.  Show your work!  The probabilities given are all conditional probabilities.  The formula tells you the probability you see a drop on the N-th turn, ''given'' that you did not get one in the previous N-1 turns.  The actual expected value is about 6.0289.  --[[User:Flargen|Flargen]] 21:11, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
* You're right; I wasn't calculating the conditional probabilities above. I agree with your result, but in the interest of adding at least ''something'' new, I will give the exact value of 6.028905357, in case those extra decimals ever matter to someone. --[[User:Aaronoz|Aaronoz]] 03:28, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

== [[Tiny costume wardrobe]] ==
Does this work with this familiar, allowing you to have random insanely humongous familiars? Would be interesting to check. --[[User:Toxicwind|Toxicwind]] 23:33, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

yeah it works, I equipped my familiar with the tiny costume wardrobe and then he turned into a green pixie.  pure win!  lol  --[[User:Lemonclaw|Lemon-claw]] 05:56, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

== Combat mechanics ==


The meat-steal seems to stop after round 10, just as with an NPZR.  But my data set is very small (3 giants).  Can anyone confirm with higher sample size?  Also, the Happy Holidays mechanic seems exceedingly rare; I've only seen it once since getting the familiar. -[[User:Greycat|Greycat]] 18:06, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
* The [[Cocoabo]] also stops giving meat after round 10, which would be a more apt comparison for this familiar (as it compares itself to a Cocoabo.) --[[User:Terion|Terion]] 02:21, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
* The "Happy Holidays" does seem extremely rare.  I have yet to see it even once!  I have been doing ascensions, so perhaps part of the reason is because there is a level limit to the mechanic (like Cocoabo).  What is the lowest level for which anybody has seen "Happy Holidays" appear? --[[User:Lennalf|Lennalf]] 00:13, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

I beg to differ.  It has given me meat on round 11 on two separate occasions.  --[[User:Lemonclaw|Lemon-claw]] 02:31, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
*I would encourage you to note that Mafia's round counter is.. well.. wrong. It has some weird counting mechanism when getting the jump is involved versus not getting the jump. It's something like: If you get the jump and pickpocket, the next round is round two.  If you get the jump and don't pickpocket, the next round is round 1. If you do not get the jump, the next round is round 1.  It starts off counting rounds at 0, and has some arbitrarily strange rules for incrementing the round counter. --[[User:MindlessGames|MindlessGames]] 07:37, 13 December 2009 (UTC)

The stocking Mimic is a plain old cocoabo in terms of formulas, so I've edited the main page to reflect this. It seems that "improved cocoabo" simply means the candies dropped, or the ability to go to 100lbs.--[[User:Jcowley|Jcowley]] 20:15, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

== Trophy ==
Seems that the information in the page is wrong...

I now have a 516 lb terrarium with a 30 lb Stocking Mimic inside. All familiars are at least 4 lb, and I still don't get the [[Black Hole Terrarium]] Trophy. Maybe because Mimic is always consider as 0 "experience" familiar?

When I was getting [[300 Pound Load]] trophy, there seems to be the same problem, but I didn't check the trophy maker every lb I have.

I'm out of adventure now. I'll post how many lb my terrarium have when I get the trophy tomorrow.--[[User:Peter50216|Peter50216]] 11:56, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
*are you sure you're counting correctly? the way to test this properly would be to get your familiars to 99lbs (not too tricky) then make the mimic 2lbs. no trophy, your conjecture is proved. i really doubt that's it, though. why the mimic and not the others? eh, i've been wrong before. good luck tomorrow. --[[User:Evilkolbot|Evilkolbot]] 12:05, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

Trot, the 30-pound Stocking Mimic (900 candies, 13 kills)

It seems that the order in the terratium is by experience, but the Mimic is at the same position with a 0 exp Grue!

When adventure 1 turn with Grue, It shows:
Gronald, the 2-pound Grue (4 exp, 1 kill)
Trot, the 30-pound Stocking Mimic (900 candies, 13 kills)

It seems that a 900-candies Mimic is consider to have less exp than a 4-exp Grue.

===500 pound load===
I had 465 pounds without my mimic, mimic was 55 pounds, I did not qualify for the 500 pound load trophy. I had 487 pounds without the mimic, my mimic was 55 pounds, I qualified for the Black Hole Terrarium trophy.  It's giving 20 pounds. --[[User:MindlessGames|RoyalTonberry]] 15:54, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
:Okay, my mimic is 16 pounds, but shows up in the list between a 10 pound familiar and a 12 pound familiar. Going for the trophy, it indeed counted as eleven pounds. Does it rack up experience like a normal familiar, but the "experience" weight is overridden by the "candy" weight, except for trophy purposes? Or the theory that candy fed by you doesn't count might be correct. [[User:Catt Although|Catt Although]] 05:58, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
