Protonic accelerator pack

Obtained From
- Items
- DIY protonic accelerator kit (August 2016 item of the month)
Notes
- After combat, if 50 adventures have passed since the last message, gives a message indicating paranormal activity in a specified location, where the next encounter will lead to a protonic ghost fight.
The walkie-talkie on your proton accelerator crackles to life: "Paranormal disturbance reported in <location>."
- Until you beat the ghost, or a certain number of turns has passed, the following notification will be displayed:
- Investigate the paranormal activity reported at <location>.
- The 50 adventures do not have to be spent wearing the pack, but you do need to be wearing the pack to trigger the notification of the encounter.
- If you ignore the notification for fifty adventures, another ghost will be generated.
- Ghosts are generated with the following algorithm:
- calculate the seed: 30 * Class number + 20 * Path number + 10 * ghost_num, where ghost_num starts at 0 (number of ghosts you have seen so far in this ascension)
- eliminate from the following ordered list any locations that are inaccessible currently and the previous zone that contained a ghost (except those marked with *):
- Spooky Forest
- Haunted Kitchen
- Cobb's Knob Treasury
- Haunted Conservatory
- Old Landfill
- Smut Orc Logging Camp
- Haunted Gallery
- Haunted Wine Cellar
- Overgrown Lot
- Skeleton Store
- Madness Bakery
- Inside the Palindome*
- Icy Peak*
- Roll against the remaining list using mt_rand and the seed
- Against non-boss ghosts, grants the skill Shoot Ghost, which makes ghosts angrier and deal more damage. Using Shoot Ghost 3 times in one combat provides access to Trap Ghost, which insta-kills the target and grants +20 stat gains from the fight.
- While equipped, defeating non-protonic ghosts drop 1 psychokinetic energy blob after combat.
- Your protonic accelerator pack beeps to alert you to the presence of nearby residual spirit energy.
![]() | You acquire an item: psychokinetic energy blob |
- Once per day, randomly drops an almost-dead walkie-talkie after combat.
- Your protonic accelerator whirs as its walkie-talkie falls off and a new one emerges from somewhere inside it.
![]() | You acquire an item: almost-dead walkie-talkie |
- Once per day, the streams may be crossed with another player wearing their protonic accelerator pack, via a button at the bottom of their profile:
- You tap <playername> on the shoulder and gesture at your protonic accelerator packs. Then you both fire them at a nearby rock, intertwining your ion streams and creating an intense but localized nuclear reaction.
- Science!
![]() | You acquire an effect: Total Protonic Reversal (duration: 10 Adventures) |
- In Nuclear Autumn, sometimes grants an additional rad at the end of a fight:
- Your protonic accelerator hums for a minute and then vents some nuclear waste.
![]() | You acquire an item: rad |
- Out of standard, it is automatically placed in your inventory for you at the beginning of your run, with the message:
![]() | You acquire an item: protonic accelerator pack |
Protonic Ghosts
- Protonic ghost fights do not cost an adventure.
- Protonic ghosts drop 3-5 psychokinetic energy blobs, whether the pack is equipped or not.
- Defeating a protonic ghost with Trap Ghost combat skill gives an additional item. Using a ghost trap doesn't cause the item drop.
