Kyshakk Koan eaintree Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Sometime during my playthrough I started seeing that "one of your party suddenly falls ill for some reason!" See the pukey cloud? See the acid thing? They took a point of damage! A whole point!" And every couple minutes they'd take another point. But I always had like 300 HP more, so it was sort of like scratching that kind of magnetized stone that self-heals, because no matter how many times they all threw up or retched or whatever, I'd do any fight and after beating up NPCs they felt great again. When I got to Garzhad, my guys were like, "what up with your face?" and Garzhad was like "what up with the perma-acid bitches? Y'all make me look like Megan Fox"... and he was right, but I smacked him with Demonslayer and he shut up eventually. But now that I reflect... he had a point, didn't he? Where'd I piss someone/something off so badly that they made me perma-sick? I didn't take Micah's spare change from his room. Is that a Dread Curse? If so I never dreaded; I mean my party maybe, but I had cheese and crackers, I was good. How do I get rid of it though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 You're carrying something radioactive, probably either a uranium bar or the Pyrrhic Gauntlets. (If you mouse over them, they give the same message about a tingling sensation that the uranium bars do, and the name is also kind of a hint that they're not all good.) Either get rid of the item or put up with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan eaintree Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 Ah... so no Uranium bar quest? It's just there as a MacGuffin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenderfoot Thahd Gharbad the handsome Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Jeff should have expanded on it further I think. If you keep it for too long your hair starts falling out and you get a -30% stats disease, and then later on you get a -50% stats disease that can only be cured by completing a quest to find a hermit who can give you chemotherapy.

Kyshakk Koan eaintree Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 I had it for a long time, maybe half the game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Jerakeen Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Um, yeah, Gharbad was joking. Personally, I find the Pyrrhic Gauntlets well worth the occasional acid burn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
