I felt like a ninja, and my kung-fu was strong.


Sassy Pop Culture is the rule of the road in this satirical RPG!

Welcome to yet another Kingdom of Loathing thread! Come join the revelry of another goon MMORPG presence!

Kingdom of Loathing is a satirical spin on the old story though, taking a real tongue in cheek approach to even its own existance. It makes fun of all facets of pulp culture, from movies like V for Vendetta and Harry Potter, books like Gravity's Rainbow, and heck, even itself on the rare occassion.

The Basics

The game is a browser-based RPG with faint MMO elements (buying, selling, trading, and now raiding), where you and your trusty familiar grind to level 13 and beat The Naughty Sorceress, the vilest villain in the kingdom. Once you beat her, you can retain most of your success (your familiars, your items, and your money, called "meat" in this game) and 'reset' the game by ascending as a level 1 in a new class with new features and abilities. The cycle of fun is infinite!

Starting a character

Much like traditional RPGs, there are three different basic styles of gameplay

  • Muscle classes - The Seal Clubber and Turtle Tamer best their foes by beating them senseless with large clubs and swords
    • Seal Clubber - Your standard barbarian build. Focuses mainly on beating everything senseless which was made hard by a nerf. Also can club (demonic) seals.
    • Turtle Tamer - More or less your standard shaman/knight tank build. Focused more on taking tons of damage. Can also tame turtles that can be used to make better armor.
  • Mysticality classes - The Pastamancer and Sauceror fry their enemies with nuclear spells and high energy discharges.
    • Pastamancer - A bit more diverse than the Sauceror, he is able to inflict damage from any elemental source. They can call various pasta creatures in combat.
    • Sauceror - Craftier than the Pastamancer, Saucerors are able to make and use powerful stat boosting potions.
  • Moxie classes - The Accordion Thief and Disco Bandit dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge around attacks while plinking away with ranged weapons and self-buffs
    • Disco Bandit - Disco Bandits possess the ability to confuse weaken monsters in battle. Also quite the accomplished bartenders.
    • Accordion Thief - Able to beguile enemies and friend alike with his music, the Accordion Thief kind of sucks for new players. With the right skills he's arguably the best class in the game.

Avatar Classes - Special classes that don't play by the previous class rules.
  • Boris - Travel forth with your trusty bard Clancy as an avatar of the mightiest of the Warriors of Loathing in the Times of Old.
  • Jarlsberg - Currently not available.
  • Sneaky Pete - Currently not available.

Familiars

Familiars are this game's pets. Every player can have one out at a time, and there are a ton of "basic" familiars that every player can access, without hitting the jackpot or donating money. More complicated familiars are harder to get, but the basic familiar types involve increasing statgain, meatdrop (the game's currency), itemdrop, or combat-aid. Combat aid, while the most attractive to new players, is generally the most useless. You can get the best simple statgain familiar by fishing in the sewers for a few worthless gewgaws.
Just a quick reference so you don't think we're entirely crazy when we talk in terms like 1.0 fairy and 2.0 volley.
    After-Battle familiars
  • Volleyball - Easilly obtained, gives extra substats after a battle. Just get a volleyball and a seal tooth from the hermit. Use the seal tooth, use the volleyball, and you get the familiar.
  • Sombrero - The other stat gain familiar. Sombreros give extra substats based on its weight and the monster's level. A better choice for leveling in tougher areas.
  • Leprechaun - This familiar increases the amount of meat dropped after battle.
  • Fairy - Any time we talk about fairies, we're talking about familiars that improve item drop rates.
Generally the preference is item drop > stat gain > meat drop. However you're not going to see an item drop/stat gain combination familiar without a catch.

    Combat familiars - Mostly useless. There are some exceptions
  • Potato - blocks enemy attacks. Also for the longest time was a really loving annoying bottleneck if you never got one.
  • Starfish - damages enemies while also restoring your MP. Some cynics might say its wrong to purposefully do nothing in combat for 20 rounds just so you can fully restore a character's MP. They would be very wrong.

There's also things called spleen familiars, which let you get more adventures for a counter that's otherwise useless.

Eating & Drinking & ...Spleening?

So you've started your character, and you find that only have 40 adventures to spend in a day? Well that sucks, but how are you going to experience more of this awesome content?

Well, in order to get more turns, you're going to have to eat and drink, and maybe spleen yourself to more stats and turns. There's a bit more to this, but just remember when the game tells you should stop drinking, stop drinking. (Unless you don't want to adventure until tomorrow)

You can gain a general sense of how many adventures a particular food or booze will give by looking at it's quality. The progression goes crappy [0,1] adventures/unit organ damage -> decent (1,2] ->good (2,3] -> awesome (3,5] -> epic (5+).

You can also improve the quality of your consumables by crafting with them. Practically, lets start off with an ordinary bottle of gin. Gin gives 3 adventures, but costs 3 inebriey. So it's labeled as crappy (1 adventure/inebriety or api). We mix in an olive and make a martini. Martinis on average give 5.5 adventures, but still cost 3 inebriety. So this means we're at 1.83 api, so it's labeled as decent. If we take this one final step further, we can garnish* our martini with a little paper umbrella and make a little sump'm sump'm. This fruity girl drink gives 12 adventures on average, but at the cost of 4 inebriety, so 3 api. This means it's good quality.

The eating system works pretty much the same way. Spleen is a mysterious counter that exists so people wouldn't use too many substat items in a day. Then it powercrept into adventure generation and then into familiar that give adventure granting spleen items.

*-You can't make this drink unless you learn the appropriate crafting skill, which is why people love Saucerors, Pastamancers, and Disco Bandits so much.

Ascension? What's That?

Unlike most online games, KoL does have a fixed endpoint. You eventually level up, defeat the Naughty Sorceress, and you're done. Now there are things to do after beating the game, like clan dungeons or the sea ok maybe mostly clan dungeons and a few other challenges.

Well, once you're all done with whatever you want to do, you can go and bugger off the mortal coil and ascend to the halls of Valhalla. Whil you're there, maybe play a game of cards with some famous dead guys, chill, and then get bored and reincarnate.

The benefits of reincarnation are nice:
  • You are allowed to forever etch a skill into your skill sheet.
  • You keep all of your old familiars and items.
  • Exciting new areas that you've never seen before!
  • New play styles.
  • Special equipment and consumables to help you in the future.
  • Getting forever trapped in a cycle of beating this game so you know every goddamned skill in the game.

Well I signed up for this years ago and what's changed?
Chances are, quite a bit. You can take a look here for a chronological list of what's changed.

In 2007, NS13 was released. This was an overhaul of most class and familiar mechanics, while also adding 2 new story quests to the game.
In 2008, multiplayer dungeons were added.
In 2009, a revamped version of the Nemesis quest was released.
In 2010, the decision to revamp all of the old pre-NS13 quests and other lovely areas started. Here's the current progress:

  • Level 1
  • Level 2
  • Level 3
  • Level 4
  • Level 5
  • Level 6
  • Azazel, My Belle
  • Level 7
  • Level 8
  • Level 9
  • Level 10
  • Pirate's Cove
  • Hidden Temple
  • The Sea

In 2011, the ascension system was revamped and now we get new special challenge paths every 3 months. (February 15, May 15, August 15, November 15).
In 2012, chat got revamped and would be usable if not for the fact that it's chat.

Goooooooooooooooooooooooons
The SA clan is "The Protected". Once you are level 3 you can apply to the clan by visiting the Clan Recruiter in Seaside Town. Post here and one of the clan mods will accept you. IF YOU DO NOT APPLY IN THE GAME, WE WILL LAUGH AT YOU IN THIS THREAD.

Clan rules (seriously read this, no seriously, it's not that hard):
  • :siren: Don't take poo poo from the stash that you don't need. If you can't afford your own hell ramen, go nuts, take your fill every day- NOT for three days in advance. But if you take more than your share, or take stuff and sell it, you might get booted.
  • The clan (in the game) contains a few neat features that you should really learn about. On the "clan" page, you can scroll down to read the clan announcements. Also on this page, you can access our stash, our clan message board (for organizing raids, planning contests, and sharing pubbie-griefing schemes), and the rumpus room (aka free toys and free fun for all).
[*]We also have a fully stocked VIP room, complete with access to Faxbot (#2194132).
[*]In order to get access to the clan dungeons we need you to give us a Mr. Accessory so we can ensure the clan is the best-advertised. Wait, we're not even that dickish.

This is fun!
It is, and if you really enjoy the game, you can donate :10bux: to the game devs via Paypal to get a Mr. Accessory, a highly decent item. The biggest advantage of the Mr. A, as it's called, is that it every month there is an "Item of the Month", that gives all sorts of ridiculous and unique laughs, like the Jewel hat, V for Vivala mask, and Wizard Action Figure (links at the top) Additionally, various goons are willing to sell the meat that they have accrued over their career at a better rate than the current market price, making it a much better deal for you to buy from them rather than from the devs direct. If you want to get more bang for your buck, give Sputnik a shout. (Other goons can be added to this list)

Chat
ALL of the public chat channels on KoL are terminally retarded. Try to avoid the idle idiot talk, unless you want to kill some brain cells. However, we have an :siren: IRC channel (#protected on irc.synirc.net).

If you're too lazy to download a client, you can connect with mibbit. (Just click here!)


A typical day in /trade
This is fun, but not for hours a day; good god!
The good news is that your account will never be deleted, so you can take a week off without having to worry about vacation mode or other goofy things. In the past, you needed to pay to have a Mr. Accessory to mark your account no-delete, but all newer accounts get it free. So your account from 2004 might not be around any more.

Additionally, if you find it a little fun, but not "stare at your monitor forever" fun, you may be interested in looking up Greasemonkey scripts to accelerate your browser mischief, or the botting program KoLMafia. KoLMafia automates adventuring for you, allowing you to avoid tedious repetition while still enjoying the game's content.

If you're feeling a bit more on the high-end side of botting, we also you recommend to take a look at KolProxy.

The Not-so-Basics

*Advice for newbies*
What is Ascension?
Common Acronyms used (not super important, may help remove the feeling that we all speak tongues)

Spoiler links:
Playing the game through with no spoilers is a lot more fun than reading a walkthrough right off the bat. If you get stuck, someone in the clan can give you advice. However, there are a billion spoilers out there if you want that kind of thing.
The KoL Wiki is the de facto place to learn things about the game
This calendar gives a summary of lots of daily changes.
This page ranks skills on awesomeness, as determined by the cutting edge pretentious folks.
Spoiler/Tips including the Strange Leaflet powerup words:
http://www.zerokelvin.org/kol.html

Free buffbots:
Buffs are useful, and a few big clans run philanthropic buff characters. Do a /whois in the chatpane to make sure they're online before you fire off your requests.

Buffy

(and to a lesser extent, Noblesse Oblige and IocaineBot)

You can't be buffed while you're adventuring, so it's best to hang around in KOL's in-game chat until you get the messages that they've cast the buffs on you.

Our Very own Goon-Only Bot:

Masamune (#1731037), the Smithbot and Smashbot (he will make weapons and armor, any type, for you, and he can even smash things apart for you, sometimes in the same step!) Down because we're retarded at coding and can't fix a memleak :(

Instructions:

code:
Just send Masamune items you want smithed and/or wadded, and tell him so in the message.

For example, to make a bat-rear end leather jacket, send him 1 shirt kit, 1 bat leather and say "smith".

To have him then smash said item after it is made, say "smith powder". If you want him to combine what he gets out of it,
"smith [powder/nugget/wad]" with what you want him to combine up to. He'll comply the best he can - obviously if you send 
him the materials for the leather jacket and say "powder" you're still getting wads back.

If he can't smith stuff you send him he will just send it back.

If you just want stuff smashed, "wad" will do. Combined? "wad" or "nugget" will also combine the items you send.

If what you are sending to be smithed cannot be done by Innabox, it will cost an adventure. 
The bot will only let you use 10 of its adventures a day. It will not attempt to smith your items 
if it thinks doing so would put you over your allotment for the day, or if it simply doesn't have enough adventures.

You have to be in the clan or on the clan whitelist to use the bot.
Things that you may want to know:
  • What is "Multi Abuse"? Since this is free game, the team running the show has defined "Multi Abuse" as being anything you do that gives another account you own an unfair advantage. This involves things like swapping gear, giving meat to your "main", and even buying from your main's store. Will you get caught? Maybe. If you do, some, or all, of your accounts will be deleted. Synraak said it best,

    Synraak posted:

    This quasi-rule about multi-abuse sounds a lot like reality in reference to the police... Passable infractions that are usually looked over can still screw you over if you're caught by the wrong person, on the wrong day, at the wrong time. Risk vs. convenience.
    so play your own odds.
  • What the gently caress is "baleeted," and why do people carry it around like a flag of honour? It's the same thing as /ignore, and in KOL, if you push a button in your store, you can keep them from giving you their precious precious meat for items! Oh boy!
  • What is "KMail?" KMail is the in-game private message system (not instant messages via the chat pane and the /msg command, but via the MESSAGES link through the top bar). This is how you send meat to buffbots for insanely cheap buffs. Remember, only 3 Accordion Thief buffs at once. (Conversely, /msgs are sent through the chatpane, and are "/msg name messagecontents" Spaces in names get converted to underscores in this mode)
  • I don't mean to sound all pretentious or anything, but this KoL market is about as mentally challenged as my disabled brother. Yeah, we know. You can make bajillions of meat selling to stupid people right after new content is released. If the new content involves some sort of puzzle or mental trickery, being the first on the case can mean you make millions.
  • This is fun, but I want to help! And we want you to as well! The biggest items of note in our clan stash are the Disco Bandit drinks, and Super Salads. If you've got spare booze components, scrumptious reagents, dry noodles or hellion cubes, you can toss them in the stash and when one of the mods gets bored we'll mix/cook them into delicious delicious high end products.
  • There are a TON of dishonest people in KoL. Use the trade function, not normal messages - unless it's a fellow goon, they may try to scam you. Trustbot, which is always called into play when trying to "sell" items of questionable rarity, is generally a better indicator of who NOT to trust than any judge of worthy character. Also, don't be like Tripwood and send a real astral badger when you were trying to sell a stuffed one.
  • BUY A STORE. DO IT. Players should buy mall stores as soon as they hit level 9. If a player doesn't have the 50,000 meat, he or she can ask one of those helpful people or the IRC channel for a loan, which the player will easily be able to pay back WITHIN AN HOUR OR TWO. Also note that mall stores are not removed, closed, or otherwise affected by ascension.

Goon Help
Here are a few goon names in-game you can harass for quick helps, tips or aid. In chat, you can type "/whois name", without the quotes, to see if they are online or not (it will tell you what channels they are in, if any). Otherwise, you could just KMail them if you don't see them online.
*Sputbot
*Xaax
*kurai
*Very Flash
*BenMears
*Yuros
*TonyV


Here are some more specific tips:

  • There are many items, passive skills, and equipment to increase item drop. This is a good thing.
  • Gaining stats is what you want to do. It is the PRIMARY and ESSENTIAL way to progress through the game. Your blood-faced volleyball will be a godsend for your first dozen or so ascensions. Don't ever discount bonus experience.
  • Don't steal 30 chow mein and 30 scrumptious reagent potions just because "you're going into Ronin." NOT COOL AND YOU WILL GET SLAPPED FOR IT.
  • Don't do a Hardcore Oxygenarian run as your first ascension. Play it smart - ease into Hardcore, if you're looking for a challenge. Your first HCO run can be upwards of sixty days of pain and boredom.
  • Mushroom Mushroom! (Gloomy Mushroom plot instructions!)

  • Have fun. It is a game, after all.


New Content
Other than long-term investment in Mr. Accessory Items of the Month, the best way to make meat is by exploiting the lust for new content. If a new zone opens or a new item is discovered, farming up these items to sell in the mall at offensive markup can earn you 10-30 million ($20-60 worth of American dollars if you bought the Mr. As and sold them) in under a day! Of course, the best advice and the best info is always circulating around our irc room.

In hardcore, and especially Bad Moon, they're very useful. For example, you can get a full Knob Goblin elite suit (for access to +item and +meat drop potions, early cheap MP, and a +5 familiar weight potion), items that give 10 turns of +100 to a stat, some very good low level food and drink, and of course the 10 turns of 200% meat drops for the hills.

You cannot remove anything from storage except for Mr. Accessories, and you cannot equip these. If you receive a Mr. Accessory during a hardcore run through donation, you will not be able to equip it. Items from Mr. Store may not be equipped either, but you can use or zap them. Familiars from Mr. Store may still be placed in your terarrium and function normally, and items with a "use" (or "squeeze") link may be used as normal.

I've probably said this before, but that Bad Moon lead-in run just looks like the most tedious unfun thing imaginable, and they need a different trigger for it so I don't have to endure 2 weeks of crappy buffs just to enter the hard mode.

Also what are people doing hardcore day one with the NS13 changes? Boring spaghetti seems to be the best thing in reach early, but you've got to spend more time in the pantry looking for tomatoes than would be desired. There's also pretty much no time to hit the arena for your stat-gain familiar's equipment. Is the haunted kitchen worthwhile?

Can't you send gift packages of stuff from Hagnks from the gift shop? Costs a bit if you're doing more than one item at a time.

This is the correct answer.

I'm pretty sure the oyster eggs were all going for a few thousand each a few days after oyster egg day last year and right now they're hardly over 100. Did I remember wrong or should I spend my 40,000 on them right now then resell in a week?

I'd venture to say that would be a solid investment.

I have a suspicion that the +meat ones will sell well.

Tabby, I'm sorry I'm really bad at the internet. If you ever come to Northern Ontario, I owe you a drink or two.

How do I get the Talisman o' Nam? I've been adventuring for snakehead charms in the pirate cove with no luck and can't withdraw either from the clan bank because they're worth 0 meat. HEEEEEEELP!

You have to find and use your father's Macguffin journal before snakehead charms start to drop. No more accessing the Palindome before you start the level 12 quest.

Ah, thank you. I must've wasted 40 adventures on that place.

Also, the OP of the last thread said to bug people in IRC for the 50,000 meat to buy a mall store, but I don't use IRC. If a rich fellow in this thread wouldn't mind loaning it to me, toss a msg to Maldoror in game. Thanks!
