    Pretend you had access to the God of Luck, and rather than using its powers for real life applications like a sane person would, you decide to use its powers for unrealistic scrolling odds in this mushroom game.

    With these luck powers, the items you obtain will always have maximum stats, Chaos Scrolls always give +5 stats, 10% scrolls always work, and the GMs don't ban you for some reason.
    Because you are a selfish bastard, you will never give up or sell your unrealistic equipment except for the purposes of obtaining funds for more Chaos Scrolls.

    For this thread, you decide to only use your luck on capes.
    You are not a mage.

    EDIT: aw fuck, i messed up the poll
    pretend the options are as follows:
    • 30 atk Blackfist Cloak
    • 23 DEX, 25 atk Blackfist Cloak
    • 18 DEX, 18 STR or LUK, 20 atk Blackfist Cloak

    Assuming 45 INT Crimsonheart is out of the picture... :)

    Can I do a 30 att Blackfist Cloak? Since it comes with up to 5 weapon attack according to the lib, and has 5 slots.

    Though, my #1 choice would be a 29 att Pink Gaia Cape (4 att + 5 * 5 slots). I'd sacrifice that 1 attack for the ability to sell the item... though unsure if anyone would actually be able to afford it.

    I don't need DEX, since I can get that from other equips. And, I believe the value of LUK:Attack is currently 6:1 on my build, so 1 att > 5 luk in terms of output.

    Is it even theoretically possible to make a 23 DEX, 25 atk Blackfist?

    Excluding Pink Gaia on purpose?

    I think your poll options need some love :)

    Unfortunately, you can't edit existing poll options without creating a new thread.

    23 DEX, 25 atk Blackfist comes from as follows:
    0 slots used: 0 DEX, 5 atk
    +1: 3 DEX, 5 atk
    +2: 8 DEX, 10 atk
    +3: 13 DEX, 15 atk
    +4: 18 DEX, 20 atk
    +5: 23 DEX, 25 atk

    We're using Blackfist Cloak instead of Pink Gaia Cape because:

    If it's currently available capes, I'd pick some niche/meme capes choices;
    • [​IMG] Icarus Cape (2) Speed 11, chaos'd to 36 Speed.
    • [​IMG] Goblin Cape 6 STR, chaos'd to 31.
    • [​IMG] Cape of Warmness 11 Avoidability, chaos'd to 36 Avoid.
    Taru Spirit Cape would be a choice but not in ML.

    I’d choose 45 all stats crimson cloak since it’s much more likely that I’m able to buy something closer to a 20wa+ than a 45as cape.

    There’s onyx apples for att, and I can still share the cape among my own characters.

    I've been attempting this for a while now actually, best cape so far ended up at 24 tma.
    Honorable mention to a 21 tma 2 slot cape that eventually boomed after passing CSS twice and failing 3x CS in a row on the 4th slot
