Magic can reach around 600kph, with Melee reaching 800+ at the higher end. Both Melee and Magic are strong for these, Magic with an Inquisitor's staff is the best method to kill these whilst AFK, whereas Melee is stronger if active. ⬥ Differing to the other Akhs, these are best killed in the Player-Owned Slayer Dungeon, as the natural habitat provides bad opportunities for AoE, and contain the other two style Imperial Akhs. ⬥ If the player has the level to kill these, they are recommended to instead move on to the Imperial Akhs via the usage of a Wilder Pie, which offer much stronger xp rates. ⬥ Immediately at 105, the player can use a Wilder Pie to boost to kill these for improved XP rates. With a good setup, they can also be AFK'd and provide strong XP rates, with active killing allowing for competitive rates with other tasks. After 5 auto-attacks, they strike the floor to deal a large 3000 hit through deflect prayers. Īlso afk'able with melee, due to their low HP their dangerous special attack can be ignored. Due to their harder hitting attacks, the usage of a vampyrism scrimshaw is recommended to heal, as the player should be praying. Despite this, they can be very easily AFK'd in the same method as Salawas, and are often killed for their common elite clue drops. This occurs when the mob reaches 2500 HP, and hits when the bar above their head fully charges. The usage of a Scrimshaw of Vampyrism is recommended, however due to their weak attacks, can be killed with active.įeline Akhs have harder hitting attacks than Salawas, and have a special attack which deals large magic damage, and aggros nearby Feline Akhs. The lowest level Soul Devourers, these hit weakly with melee attacks and have no special attacks, making them easy to AFK. The action bar and preset above are recommended as a base preset, more food or slightly modified gear may be swapped between tasks. Most of the mobs in the slayer dungeon can be reasonably afk'd with a decent melee setup, through the usage of the Scrimshaw of Vampyrism to provide healing. The dungeon drop enhancers increase the rate of keys obtained, and the vital spark enhancers provides +1 on drop. ⬥ Sophanem Slayer Dungeon Drop Enhancers / Vital Spark Enhancers - Purchaseable with dungeoneering tokens for 10,0 dungeoneering tokens respectively, these offer increased drops in the dungeon. ⬥ Feathers of Ma'at - required to kill all the mobs in the Sophanem Slayer dungeon, bar the Magister. If the player has completed the Contact!, Jack of Trades and Icthlarin's Little Helper quests, a quick way to access them would be via the Menaphos lodestone, taking the bridge to Sophanem, and then running south to the dungeon entrance. The easiest way to get there would be a Sophanem Dungeon Teleport tablet, craftable after reaching T4 reputation in the any Menaphos district. Soul Devourers are located in the Sophanem Slayer dungeon, shortcuts can be unlocked to make them easier to access, after navigating the dungeon once. ⬥ In addition to this, Soul Devourers each have their own droptables, containing good alchables and other resources, making them consistent GP, which is auto-looted in the Sophanem dungeon. Vital sparks are uncommon drops, and can be doubled via the use of Vital Spark enhancers, which can be purchased with dungeoneering tokens alongside the key enhancers. Keys are dropped at a rate of 1/75 on task, which can be increased to 1/60 with the usage of Sophanem Slayer dungeon drop enhancers. ![]() ⬥ Soul Devourers are one of the sources that drop the Key to the Crossing and Vital Sparks, adding a lot of value to each task. ⬥ The Magister can also be killed on a Soul Devourer task at 115 slayer for 8000 XP, and can achieve decent XP/h rates, however the only benefit of being on-task is the use of, as the effect does not work on him. The types that are recommended to kill will be listed below. Each mob offers a different level of AFK-ability and GP rates, so the choice of which to kill is up to the player. ⬥ There are 6 Soul Devourer types, between Slayer levels 105 to 117, alongside the ability to kill the Magister at 115 Slayer.

(Windows) / GOG-3 (Mac) / GOG-4 (Linux) (added 23 March 2017): Functionality added for checking if your current weapons could bash a door in, for events. Starting food changed so that the Ultrafit food bonus finally works. We will add a couple more ways to get it in the next content update. Currently the scythe can be obtained a couple of ways in the existing farmer help event. New Scythe weapon, somewhere in between a machete and knight sword in the weapon tiers. Some characters can float or even fly now. New rare city building with the Would You Kindly stream team, based on the results of the Death Road to Canada pre-launch race that they utterly failed at. Halloween weirdness if you play the game tomorrow. "No drop" weapons won't end up in the trunk. If trunk is full, extra weapons will be lost. It will overwrite your trash slot if the trunk is completely full. Wielded weapon will drop to the trunk first. This mostly includes events where you're betrayed, or events where someone is completely obliterated off the face of the earth. There are some events that will still eat cause you to lose your weapons, so beware. ![]() Losing a character in a CYOA event will now cause that character's weapons to drop into the trunk automatically!

Evolutionary pressure in the apocalypse has caused them to revert back to something like a mountain lion. ![]() Changelog for Halloween Update / GOG-2 (Windows and Mac) / GOG-3 (Linux) (added 31 October 2016): ![]() ![]() By relocating the action to an anonymous American town, there is no chance of events playing out on an epic canvas - McKee utilizes his "nowhere" location, making it almost a reflection of May's stunted psychological growth. In May, becoming the monster (let's be honest: her patchwork lover is only a footnote in the tale) is the next stage in her diabolical evolution. In Frankenstein, the creature is an aberration and is traumatized by this fact. She elicits sympathy from the viewer and inspires fear and occasionally revulsion. She's the mad scientist and the monster, by her own design. McKee's excavation of Shelley's classic flips the Frankenstein idea on its square (sorry) head by positioning the main character as both victim and perpetrator. Kissing (and biting) gets a tad too dark for Adam’s vanilla sensibility, and a seductive dance isn’t enough for May. They later hook up at a launderette and embark on a strange romance. May grows obsessed with scuzzy mechanic Adam ( Jeremy Sisto), a chain-smoking hipster with a moody disposition and great hands. Her dizzy, Sapphic assistant Polly ( Anna Faris) makes not-so-subtle advances toward May, but she remains oblivious to this. Now a veterinary assistant at The Sarzikan Animal Hospital and May is content to blend into the background, for the most part. Later in life, May decides she needs a real friend, someone she can hold. Cut to scenes of doll parts falling through a void overlapping with motherly advice to the younger May – hide your differences, it’ll be easier to fit in. It opens with May screaming at her reflection, one hand covering her eye, blood gushing through her fingers. The movie is an equal parts character study and Grand Guignol gothic melodrama with an intense central performance from Angela Bettis. ![]() Melding indie horror realism with revisionist horror ensured May became a cult favorite and is now considered a Midnight Movie classic. RELATED: The 41 Best Horror Movies of the 2000s What is 'May' About? The movie performed poorly at the box office but has endured as a Midnight Movie staple and gained a loyal cult following. ![]() So, it was refreshing when Lucky McKee ( The Woman, All Cheerleaders Die) served up May, an indie horror with feminist trappings riffing on a literary classic. Survival horror game Resident Evil made a commercially successful transition to live-action horror, and My Little Eyereflected our fascination with the onslaught of reality television. Eli Roth and Neil Marshallstarted "The Splat Pack" with their filmmaking debuts Cabin Feverand Dog Soldiers, and Halloween Resurrectionwas the death rattle for a dying franchise (or so we thought). This resulted in no filmmakers following a trend or adhering to a thematic or narrative template. Cinematic output had become stale in the wake of the self-reflexive/knowing genre offerings widespread in the mid/late 90s and early 00s. Yes, we're talking about 2002's May.Ģ002 was an unremarkable year for the horror genre. She comes to the realization that if she can’t find the perfect man, she’ll need to put him together herself – with body parts. A bit tricky when you’re taking tips on dating and homicide (and dismemberment) from a hectoring doll encased in glass. In this Frankenstein-informed psychodrama-ish body-horror, Angela Bettis is the titular character who is just another everyday "grotesque." She’s overlooked, insecure, and lonely, working as a veterinary assistant who daydreams about the perfect man. ![]() Additionally, Zodangans in this version have pointed ears. In the Marvel Comics series Warlord of Mars, the Red Martians are more literally red-skinned, and have facial hair on occasion. On occasion there will be members of the race with facial hair. In the Dynamite Comics series the Red Martians are portrayed with a fair amount of accuracy to their counterparts in the original novels. They also mark themselves with bright red tattoos that represent social standing and key life experiences. In the 2012 film John Carter, the Red Martians are portrayed more modestly. The below information is not from the works of Edgar Rice Burroughs and therefore isn't considered canon Disney Kantos Kan ( Jedwar of The Heliumetic Army).The few who survived those beasts ended up becoming enslaved by the Therns until they grew too weak to serve, at which point they were killed and consumed. In truth, the valley, while abundant with life, was overrun with predatory white apes and plant men. These beliefs had been drummed into them by the Therns. The valley was long believed to be the entrance to a glorious, idyllic afterlife. Traditionally, most Red Martians worshipped the goddess Issus, and when the individual reached the age of 1000 years, or grew tired of living, they would make a pilgrimage to the Valley Dor, near the southern pole of Barsoom. With the Red Martian people spread out over the face of Barsoom, Red Martian culture is far more diverse than the largely-homogenized cultures of the other races. Body and facial hair was practically unknown, and considered very unusual. Barsoom and Edgar Rice Burroughs are registered tr. Like the other Martian races, Red Martians wear very little clothing, but many ornaments. This ERB Minute introduces the viewer to Barsoom, the fantastic world created by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Red Martians can interbreed with humans and produce hyb rid offspring. They reach maturity in another 5 Martian years. Upon hatching the young Red Martians are fully developed except for their size. An egg has to be incubated for about 5 Martian years before hatching. The Red Martians are not exactly red, but have a reddish-copper skin tone. They thrived and spread out over the surface of the planet. After countless generations, copper skin and black hair became the new norm, and thus the Red Martians were born. The three nations began to interbreed, and over time, the characteristics of each individual nation became diluted. According to this history, when the oceans of the world began to dry out, the three ancestral nations formed an alliance in the hopes of preserving sentient life on Mars. According to the most widely-accepted histories, the Red Martian race is the result of centuries of interbreeding between the fair-skinned Orovar, the black-skinned First Born, and the yellow-skinned Okar. |
