Palace of Greed, El Dorado (Library of Ruina)

Reader mode
So, using the Warp Glove means every time we attack, be it at a Rat or a Distortion, we could lose 5 health, and only if we both roll a 6 and not a 1 and also win the clash do we inflict 5 damage on them? It seems like the sort of thing that might be good against a lot of weak opponents with our eating souls for HP, but against a Distortion we are more likely to be hurt by it then to hurt it, given that Distortions are tougher than the stuff we've faced before.
If it were a bonus to the attack roll, then it'd be worth taking, of course, but even assuming we are on an even ground with the Distortion(very unlikely), we have a 50-50 chance of hitting. Which means (roughly) we are twice as likely to hurt ourselves as we are to hit the Distortion with the extra damage. That's not good odds, especially for what appears to be a boss character for the end of the month.
 
Since the 777 isn't going to win and I really don't want to waste our money on an item that's either useless or actively harmful 70% of the time - seriously @Alectai it's absolute garbage and we'll never be able to make it not garbage without getting in the absolute best case W-Corp's lawyers thrown at us - I'm changing my vote to

[X] Gun-Glove (Wearable) – product of the SilverSteel Workshop. One of the few Workshops involving Guns that Mao seems to frequent – even though it's a gun, it's only usable in punch-range. It's part of the reason why it's cheap and hasn't been sold – it is still expensive, though Mao's more than willing to foot the bill. That being said, you have to buy your own bullets.

Even worse - 1/6 and 6/1 cancelling each other out means that 5.56% is no effect, so its a flat 50% nothing happens, 25% sure-fire self-harm, and 25% +5 dmg... if Lily wins the clash.

EDIT: I've amended the probability analysis post.

Eugh. We really are just better off without it. Like, it'd be good on a sacrificial lamb in the Library using Opportunity Spotted to farm emotion coins so they'd still get in good damage despite only rolling 1s and 2s, but on a main tank like us it's terrible.

I am unwilling to tempt fate. Also currently the organ seems to be too much of a gamble considering we will be going into a hard fight with a distortion and it isn't too difficult to imagine that ego would be useful in such a fight

[X] Plan: I've got Gloves now!

I like the gloves I would have gone for the heart for potential long-term gains if we were not going to 0 ego right before a fight with something that took over a fixer office presumably by mind control things.

Hot damn, this quest is getting some traction. Hopefully this'll result in more people trying out LOR or even PM's stuff in general.

[X] Plan 7 +3 = Kill

Edit: Wasn't aware you could vote for two plans at once either!

Math says the warp glove is straight up negative on average, which A) sucks ass in general and B) is exactly what isn't needed against an Urban Plague.
 
Can I please divert people's attention to 7+3=kill? Cause I feel like it's a really good plan that gives us a good card to help save our ass if we get in over our head either now or hopefully to save for the future while still giving us some rounds four gun glove to hurt people with. Cause just buying the gun glove and 6 bullets feels like a minor increase compared to how potent 7 minutes can be.

You can approval vote both my plan and the buy 6 bullets plan if you really don't want one of the other options to win so give it a thought

Much as I would like to [Rip space], its not quite good enough to get the win. Meanwhile, the heart is an absolute trap for now. Also, I still like lilys body being as unaugd as possible and relyimg on gear. That, and my long term plan does involve getting more justice, ego and such, specifically because I think itll help us deal with the looming specter of the past and Lin.

I did not know you could vote for two things at once. Progress!
 
I am sad about actually getting something gun adjacent. The reason for that is because unlike other augments, its kind of a money sink in having to be restocked with bullets constantly.

- Doctor, the sum you've put in the bill is absolutely insane!
- Believe, me, patient, you wouldn't be complaining if you knew just how tempted I was to get your unique case to a post-mortem...

At least the bullets are really cheap. Normally a full mag'd be worth twice as much as the gun itself, but since this is a melee weapon we manage to get them for only 100k a pop.

I don't want the seed and I want the warp glove even less. At the same time, I refuse to give up on the Still Beating Heart, but if not I'd rather just get the Gun-Glove and nothing else.
