Bazaar slave raffle is go? Buying one or two credit cannon fodder for the dungeon and then selling them seems to work out. We get loot boxes, we get cannon fodder, and the payout is USUALLY more than equal to 1 credit per credit spent.
1 credit: Buy the shittiest version of Living Quarters: the Barracks. One big room with tons of cots, sleeping mats, and hammocks. Enough for 100 people, easily. Also includes a bathroom so Snow can stop dumping shit off into the void offscreen.
5 credits: Buy Team Evac, allowing Gil to send his retinue members home as easily as he can teleport himself back. Still costs an hour per person.
5 credits: Buy Minor Inventory, giving Gil a 6 slot inventory where he can smuggle weapons and magic items easily.
6 credits: buy the mid range version of the living Quarters: the Dorm. A 5 story building with 50 small apartments that share 5 bathrooms. This requires and includes the price of the Barracks
10 credits: For just hanging out and being a mana addict, Candress didn’t need addiction defense. For entering into “we sell and do drugs: the gang” as an infiltrator? Might be good to basically shut down the part of her brain that gets addicted to things so she can blend in without any physical or mental side effects.
10 credits: Buy an extra parasite. Those things are fuckin nifty.
10 Credits: buy an extra shroud, same logic. It’s an upper tier binding for a reason.
16 credits: Buy the top tier of living Quarters that Gil could plausibly afford, a moderately sized house furnished with 5 more bathrooms, extensive closet space, and several more sparsely furnished rooms like a living room, dining room, and kitchen.
Open Hands: Sell the basic stamp, and gain 20 credits. We can buy it back for 20 credits, and currently all of the worlds in our address book have the stamp marked as “used”
5 Beastmaster sphere credits: Wonder Trade - get free bonus animals whenever selling or carding an animal captured in a Beastmaster sphere
4 credits into Beastmaster Sphere: Beast Mode: allows you to use Beastmaster sphere on creatures that don’t always qualify under your current limitations. For example, a werewolf is only sometimes animalistic.
7 credits into Beastmaster sphere: It Can Think: sapience no longer disqualifies a target from being a target of Beastmaster spheres. This is functionally a prerequisite for a lot of stuff but you don’t NEED to buy it if you’re confident about finding non-sapient monstergirls or whatever.
7 credits into Beastmaster Sphere: Monstergirls: Being humanoid no longer disqualifies targets of Beastmaster spheres
7 credits into Beastmaster Sphere: cryptid capture- being non-bestial does not disqualify targets of Beastmaster spheres.
7 credits into Beastmaster Sphere: Fast Ball: Successful capture of a target in a Beastmaster sphere is instant instead of waiting until return to the skyblock and portal closure
7 credits into Beastmaster Sphere: Heal Ball- creatures inside of balls will regenerate quickly, sealing a small cut in about a minute and mending broken bones in an hour or two
7 credits into Beastmaster Sphere: Love Ball- seduction reduces a target’s resistance to being captured. In addition, the balls will be pumped full of subliminals that make the creature in the sphere like the tester more.
Spend 5 credits to buy enough Symbiote credits to afford Royal Honey, a substance that can be used primarily as an infinite food source in the context of this test, but also works as a worse healing potion than the healing leaves.
Spend 8 credits to buy enough Symbiote credits to afford the Evolution Chamber, a parasite perk that allows Gil to embed retinue members to generate “free” symbiote credits.
10 into Symbiote credits: Corruptive Ooze - Creates a pool that fills very slowly. Anyone fully submerged will gain a parasite of their own and deplete the pool dramatically. Only works on retinue members.
13 into Symbiote credits: Hatchery- Generates monsters following the theme of this test’s Symbiote species, which is seru. Amount and maximum power level is scaled to the total power of all people living on the skyblock on a given week. Right now that’s probably one seru of a species Gil is aware of per week.
20 into Symbiote credits: 3rd generation Symbiote- Upgrades all Symbiote’s to allow the host to transform into a goo form, with all the benefits of being temporarily liquid.
