G-Lover/Strategy

This page is in need of content. A work in progress, needs more information

This guide will provide some additional information to aid with a G-Lover ascension. It is currently a work in progress.

Valhalla

If you try to take G-less astral Consumables or astral Pets, you'll get a warning before you re-enter the Kingdom.

Astral options are greatly limited in this challenge path. Of the two consumables, only the astral hot dog remains usable. Between equipment, choices are limited to the astral bludgeon, astral longbow and astral ring. The weapons are two-handed, so if they're used, a KoL Con 13 snowglobe can't be equipped, which probably leaves the ring as the only decent choice, if only for quality of life.

Familiars

The most valuable familiars for this challenge path are likely as followed. Note that even if the familiar contains a 'G', its functionality may be affected depending on the effects / items it provides.

• Jumpsuited Hound Dog - Provides the most substantial item drop bonus available to a familiar in this path, as well a source of increased combat frequency that might be otherwise difficult to acquire.
• Slimeling - Between item drops, equipment pickpocketing and MP restoration, it is a useful, well-rounded familiar. Note that the Slime Stack cannot be used in this path.
• Gelatinous Cubeling - All of its drops that speed up the Daily Dungeon are fully functional in this path.
• Intergnat - While the Internet Meme Shop can be accessed via /go meme, only the Gallon of Milk and Daily Dungeon Malware are usable. That being said, it still provides item drops, MP restoration, demon summoning components and a buff that decreases combat frequency.
• God Lobster - Provides a great variety of functionality, and given that all of its items and effects revolve around the God Lobster, they remain fully functional in this challenge path.
