Accordion Thief... Hmm.... Well, the only 3 I use are Polka, Phat Loot, and AAA. AAA takes 40 MP per, so that probably wouldn't be that great. So, Polka or Phat Loot. Probably Phat Loot... just because you won't be fighting all that much stuff that gives alot of meat, so getting extra isn't as good as getting extra items.

I'm going to go TT 2x or PM first... to get the Passive Empathy skill, Empathy, and Leash of Linguini... then go and get Advanced Pastamaking and Sauseworking, or whatever its called...

I think as a Seal Clubber... I'm going to take Advanced Metalsmithing with me, even though it is worthless now. Jick said he was going to impliment a bunch of new content to make it not worthless and to add in an item like Chef-in-the-box so that it doesn't use up turns either.

Another AT buff I found useful was Ode to Booze. However in ascension it doesn't make as much sense to use it, also considering it costs 50 mp to use. I would agree with Tass that the most useful AT skill to bring would be Phat Loot Lyric and 2nd time around maybe grab Polka of Plenty.

Well, we'll see what kind of changes he has for meatsmithing, because as a TT I found them useless. However the familiar skills for TT's were very good.

I haven't accomplished much yet, but I'm thinking of ascending into a PM probably like a week after asecnsion begins.

I think I will go through PM 2 times to get Leash of Linguini, and Pastamastery. I also want Advanced Saucecrafting and some AT skills too! Empathy would also be nice! So, I'm guessing I will be going through Ascension many times...

I dunno which DB skill to keep. I see that mad lootin skillz or nimble fingers are great passive bonuses, but advanced cocktailcrafting would be a great thing to have (I think) especially now that it gives ingredients three times a day. But then again, I probaly wouldn't have the other ingredients for the DB cocktails, rendering it useless.

As to class ascending, I think I might go accordian thief. Polka or Loot would be good hardcore skills to have.

Mead: If you are planning on going SOLELY hardcore... you definately want advanced cocktailcrafting, so you can make yourself l33t drinks. no TPS, so DB drinks are the best you'll get... and, you can get the ingrediants at fairly low levels...

Off topic kind of, but is there a crossbow better than the star crossbow?

No, not that I know of, especially if your main stat is moxie, and you have crossbow fever.

Nothing can be meatsmithed past an asbestos crossbow/kentucky-fried-crossbow?
Because those only have a power of around 50...

**Do you think mall prices will be affected when Ascencion hits since all of the Donald Trumps won't be allowed to buy anything for 1000 turns?

Edit-I seemed to have spelled 'do' wrong...

*****Jenova-I knew about the chrome crossbow, and I think the star crossbow has 165 power.

You can meatsmith a chrome crossbow, which I believe has a power of 120.
Edit- Did I forget to mention that the chrome crossbow also gives you 3 extra adventures when equipped at rollover? Well, now you know.

Although I can't say exactly how ascension will affect the mall it will surely have a drastic effect. Am I right in believing that most of the people that can afford to buy the most items will go hardcore thus they won't be able to buy from the mall. So, the less experienced players going through non-hardcore (Is their a term for that?) will have cheaper mall prices?

Also, I'm wondering which familiar I should take to ascension. I have all of them except for Mr. Store and GPOAS. I'm thinking to take my BGF, but I would like to hear other opinions.

I'm bringing my volleyball.

I would take the baby gravy fairy because you really need the quest items much faster. I remember it took me forever to get through the Orc Chasm because I couldn't get those dumb 334 scrolls. Just my opinion though. Take the baby gravy fairy.

Yay, just got my GPOAS.

Anyway, I think that I'm restricted to 20 items a day, I doubt that'll be enough to provide me with best food/drinks regardless of the 1million meat investment I put into preparation.

On another note, what are people buying in preparation of ascension? I've basically stocked up on chow meins and TPS ingredients. Anything else I should be thinking about?

Well, since I will be going hardcore, I would just want to bring a great familiar and a skill. I'm not going to 'prepare' for anything, I will just go on and do my best. However, I am trying to get the 300lb trophy before Ascension. So, just try and get all of the trophies you can!

So wait, in a hardcore ascension, instead of 1000 turns, you have to wait infinity turns to get your stuff back? So like, if you keep doing hardcore ascensions it will keep putting crap in your little stockpile, but then when you do a non-harcore you'll get it all back? I would do hardcore, but the prospect of losing everything permanently doesn't intice me. If I get it back after a normal ascension, then I'll do a hardcore run or two, then do a normal to get everything back.

Yes, so basically, you can access your storage after 1000 turns in softcore ascension, but you can't access you storage at all during hardcore ascension. Thus, after finishing a hardcore ascension, you can do a softcore ascension and access your items again.
So I may do like you an switch off between softcore and hardcore ascensions.

Well, you can always just quit out of hardcore if you wanted to. But, you get a whole bunch more new stuff, like Jick said. I think I will go for hardcore, because it is basically what I went through the first through. So, I guess going hardcore will be worth it! But I still sorta want to eat food...

I just donated every last bit of meat I have to the Clan.

Also, I ate my Ghost Cucumber. I love the description.

"You eat the ghost cucumber. It's pretty filling, for something that doesn't technically exist. You feel spooky goodness coursing through your veins."

And I also gave EVERYTHING away except what I have equipped.
