Notes

  • When used as a class besides a Pastamancer, the skill will delevel and act as a single-round stagger.
  • When used by a Pastamancer, stuns your opponent from attacking you for 3 rounds of combat. This duration extends by 1 turn when a spell critical hit triggers, and further extends by 1 turn if you have a Level 10 Spice Ghost as your current active Thrall.
  • While in effect, each round of combat (including the first) will display the message:
Your opponent struggles against your entangling noodles, but to no avail.
  • The round of combat after stun wears off will display the message:
Your opponent struggles free of your entangling noodles.
  • Furthermore, you have a 100% chance of successfully running away during any round your opponent is entangled, regardless of your initiative modifiers.
  • This skill can only be used once per fight (except against the Spaghetti Demon, the final form of the Pastamancer Nemesis).
  • The attack prevention effect can carry over from the first form of the Naughty Sorceress to the second, thereby preventing the second form from getting its "free" attack.
  • The Put Down Roots skill is an upside-down picture of this skill's icon.

History

  • This skill used to delevel monster attack by (1 + Floor(ModdedMys/8)), capped at -6 atk (reached at 40 Mys) -- impeding the monster's attack (reducing its chance to hit and its hitting power) rather than directly preventing it, and with no effect on its defense. This was changed to the current effect on February 13, 2007.
  • Thrust-Smack and Lunging Thrust-Smack used to free your opponent from the noodles. As of July 9, 2007 this no longer occurs.
  • The multi-round stun used to work for all classes, however was it was disabled for non-Pastmaancer classes after they were revamped.
  • On September 26, 2013, the Seal Clubber skills were revamped, and Entangling Noodles stopped acting as a multi-round stun for Seal Clubbers. For the first day or so, Entangling Noodles when used by a Clubber used to increase monster attack and defense (with erroneous text saying that the attack and defense had been increased by negative amounts). This was fixed by September 28, 2013.
