Frugality | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
It doesn’t seem to do anything. After getting another point of it, things are just as expensive as before. |

When you add one point of Frugality the savings are very modest.
All prices are rounded, so a Happidex that was 4 will still be 4 after one point of frugality. However SmilePrin XR XR will go from 177 to 172. Evil Trout edited this message on 11/06/2007 11:08AM |

Smileprin XR was 70, and it’s still 70. Or at least it was. Now it seems to be 67. It was definitely still 70 after I got the upgrade that put my frugality at 4 though.
Wish I would have known it did next to nothing before I bought a few upgrades of it… Is there any specific reason why it does that little? |

No there is no specific reason. In fact looking at it now I’m surprised we never thought to make it stronger. The reward is too little.
You know, I didn’t want to get in the habit of changing the balance of the game before we have a lot more stats, but this is one case where I think it’s justified. I’ve just made frugality more powerful, the effects should be obvious immediately. Thanks for the feedback. |

There’s an issue with the new strength of Frugality, I sent a bug report detailing it. |

Wow, I have Frugality of 6 and prices dropped 30%. |

Mine’s at 4… I think smileprin XR used to be 70 and now it’s 55, so a 21.5% drop or so.
Certainly would have been nice to have that before I bought 1 too few smileprin XR to XSS the KKK. Log in to see images! |

I think Luck increases your chance of getting hit for 0 damage. |

I always figured it had something to do with the randomness of the damage you deal and take, since it does tend to vary, along with the chance of getting hit for 0. |

Schildkrote Posted: Also probably the deliveries.
I am glad for the Frugality increase though, there’s actually about a 20 difference in my L’ORLY Lipstick now. Log in to see images! Filthy Assistant edited this message on 11/08/2007 3:01AM |

With lvl 3 frugality the price for the troll club dropped all the way down to 640 from, according to the description, 1000 And having whippits only cost 10 a pop doesn’t hurt either. Trolls should throw a few points this way as kick bum items are all we have so far. |
