What are the limits to fungal shift? If I hold a flask of fire, does that mean there's a 75% chance that instead of bursting into flame, materials will turn into something else when they catch on fire?

Do always-casts cast multiple times on spells with a multicast modifier? I've got a wand that always-casts Rock, and in combo with projectile repulsion field, I am hurling 5 rocks every time I cast with it.

Hilariously, I can still kick them around long after they land when I move past them. And they kick gold far far away from me.

How much map is simulated at a time? I've used nukes and found that the explosion sometimes cuts off along a straight-sided wall of whatever material.

Luck matters a lot for how easy a run will be, and you'll need the RNG to cooperate for some of the really silly things you can do, but skill has a huge impact on how far you can get without getting lucky.

These two statements don't go together, friend! :shobon: You had enough skill to put a wand together that did it, and wand building is a huge skill. Part of that skill is also figuring out wand/spell combinations that are useful, and how things like triggers, modifiers, and wrapping work. Remember, for every good way to put spells together, there's a hundred bad ones, and the differences between them might not be immediately obvious.

Additional skills are recognizing parts of world gen that are likely to hide goodies, figuring out tricks to increase the amount of items/health you can work with by escaping/entering holy mountains without collapsing them, etc.


Noita is hard to judge skill in, because of how random it can be. But it definitely has an impact, and the best players can get wins consistently.

That said, there are few things more frustrating than playing a run for 20 minutes and getting nothing but useless wands, tons of toxic sludge and fire, and no water anywhere

What does it take to get to a parallel world? I tried once by catapulting black holes through the cursed rock and was nowhere near able to tank the damage or move fast enough.

I've read the wiki and I vaguely recall reading that you need an absolutely bananas amount of hp and some preposterous wand setup.

Mine was one that was just a huge multicast wand and the only spell on it were a million propane tanks with electric arc.

I knew exactly what it would do, and I still did it. That's Noita.

How do mists work, mechanics-wise? If I add modifiers to a mist, does that modifier land per mist spell instance, or per individual mist particle instance?
