Gnomitronic Hyperspatial Demodulizer
You have no idea how this thing works or what exactly it does, but apparently you can zap things with it and it buffs you up somehow.
It probably has something to do with quantums.
Type: combat item
Selling Price: 999 Meat.
(In-game plural: Gnomitronic Hyperspatial Demodulizers)
When Used
Normally:
|
| You zap your opponent with the Gnomitronic gizmo, dealing 6-15 damage. |
As the finishing blow:
|
| ||
| The gizmo buzzes in your hand, then delivers a powerful shock. | ||

After the first time per battle:
|
|
| You try to fire the Gnomitronic gizmo, but nothing happens. Looks like its magneto-capacitrons need to recharge, or... something. |
If used as a finishing blow against a monster that doesn't have enough hit points:
|
|
| The gizmo buzzes in your hand, but nothing happens. Guess that monster didn't have enough quarks, or quantums, or whatever this thing runs on. |
If used against a monster that would give Super-Mega-Ultra-Charged or Super-Mega-Ultra-Hyper-Charged, and you already have one of these effects:

| You try to fire the Gnomitronic gizmo, but nothing happens. Looks like its magneto-capacitrons need to recharge, or... something. |
Notes
- Acquired after successfully completing the Going Postal quest.
- The monster level of the monster defeated with this item determines which effect you receive. Very low level monsters give no effect. Higher level monsters give higher level effects.
- 5% is added to all attributes for each prefix in the effect name (so Super-Mega-Ultra-Charged gives +15%).
- The easiest way to make sure this item works is to CLEESH the monster, then use this item. This one-two punch will ensure the buff. Alternately, those with Ambidextrous Funkslinging can use a combat item that will kill the monster with their first item slot, and the Demodulizer as the second item. This is especially useful against The Guy Made Of Bees and the Tower Monsters, due to their high level and the fact that an item will guarantee their destruction.
- You may have two buffs at the same time, with the exception of Super-Mega-Ultra-Charged plus Super-Mega-Ultra-Hyper-Charged.
- This item is not consumed upon being used, unlike most combat items. However, if blocked by the Naughty Sorceress, your Shadow Class, or the Bonerdagon, it will still be lost.
- Despite KoL's focus on grammar, the correct plural of quantum is quanta, not quantums.
References
- The last line of the item description "It probably has something to do with quantums." is likely a reference to Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels where many of them (such as Pyramids) contain variations of the line "It's probably because of quantum."
