It fluctuates, and does depend a bit on how you interpret the numbers, but atm it’s the mimic tooth! It’s a very spicy trinket, in a way that people really enjoy, but the chance of getting chomped by an ebony mimic is not worth the reward to the average player.

“Holy Warrior in a mix of cloth and plate” is a pretty common character concept. I will say though that the upper chest guard was a particular stylistic choice by Aleks, but I don’t think it had a specific character inspiration.

I do hope a more supportive playstyle is possible, but do keep in mind that because of the way Shattered works, the Cleric will mostly have abilities that support themselves.

Afraid that is intended, artifacts need to be identified to work, so they aren’t included in the logic for the shard of oblivion currently.

Not gone, just moved! You can see it at their side on the right.

Cave spinner webs are treated as solid terrain, which does mean that most movement effects can’t go through them, just like they can’t go through walls.

Levitation letting you go through the webs is actually not intended, thanks for letting me know about that inconsistency, I’ll look into it.

EDIT: Ah, I see what’s happening. The web effect is actually processing correctly, but levitating makes you immune to the rooted debuff. Perhaps at some point a ‘webbed’ debuff might be more appropriate here, but this is technically intended for now.

You’d be surprised how much a particular player’s perspective can influence what they think is objectively powerful and what isn’t. Just as an example, the rat skull is one of the highest winrate trinkets in the game, due to the added value from drops from rare enemies. There are of course some trinkets that the majority opinion is correct about though, I would like the censor to be less trouble for it’s benefit for example.

Thanks for the feedback! There are a few trinkets I’d like to adjust still but overall I’m a lot happier with their general balance after v2.5 and patches. It is sort of intended that some people strongly dislike some trinkets though. They’re all meant to be about tradeoffs and changing up gameplay variables (even if the tradeoff can sometimes just be lots of alch energy), so naturally some players will find some tradeoffs to be great deals and others to be terrible.

I worry that this would lead to very tedious gameplay where players would feel the need to keep track of what things the book has already cast so they can plan around the new likelihoods, and eventually the garunteed final effect before a new rotation starts. The book is also supposed to be quite random, which does include possibly rolling the same effect multiple times.

Hm, that’s very odd, it almost looks like macOS is interpreting any sort of click on the game as one outside of it, and minimizing the game accordingly. The only change made recently to this sort of thing was one relating to multiple monitors, do you have more than one monitor connected?

Pressing option+enter should put the game out of fullscreen mode as well, which should help.
