Hello, hello, we are back with another Caves of Cuddaily. So today is August 25th, so the 237th day of 2026. We're going to find out what we get. Child of the Earth, true kin, penticeps for his feet. Okay, stat spread is decent, intelligence is super low. That's going to hamper us early on. and it's going to be a problem basically our entire playtime, because it's going to mean fewer skills, fewer skills means we get to do less cool stuff. So, let's see how tanky this guy is, see if we can survive long enough to have our heads explode, because that would be kind of fun. We're sitting in Joppa, nice. We're going to talk to this little fella here right quick. He is the Mechanimist Convert, and if we don't talk to him soon, when he makes his way over to Argyve, There's going to be a kerfuffle. There's going to be a bit of a scrap that goes down, and then we will miss out on our chance for a little bit of extra EXP. We will talk to, we will talk to Memet. Let's take a quick look at how he is liked and disliked, hated by oozes for disparaging a famous poet. That's okay. We don't mind that. I don't think we need any of that. We do want work, though. Of course, I press too fast. That's my mistake. Okay, we're going to pop over here. And chat with our lovely, lovely Tam. Okay, so these grenades are garbage. Just going to get straight rid of those. This is going to be a gyre iron or something like that. We've got a blaze, a Hulk honey, a love, a rubber gum, and a skulk. Of all the injectors, I would have really, really like to have a salve injector instead, but we don't get that, so that's okay. Our wheelpower must be high, hey? Because we've got some pretty great prices in here right now. Increased by 40% at night and on a ground, but reduced by 20% to the daylight, we get pus for agility at night. We can see in the dark. Double damage from light-based attacks. Yeah, I don't like that at all, really. I really, really don't like that at all. We're going to get rid of that. We are going to buy ourselves a compound bow. Uh, should we do that? Let me think about this for half a second. Compound bow, we do need something to shoot with. This is maybe not the best option, though, but the only other thing he has a musket, and that's trash. The compound bow is better. Let's just go with it. Let's not think too hard on it. This guy's not going to live past, like, I don't know, less than an hour, for sure. Alright, so let's do our usual quick explore everything. We're racing along not at infinite speed, but at, I don't know, 60 frames or something like that. So if you had trouble following that, you can, of course, set that in options. You can go to, I think it's performance. No, it's not. It's automation. You can set this to be slower, so you can see what they're doing. I've also turned off Autoget freshwater so that we don't get a little bit too heavy. Just as things that I've set will get a knick-knack, you know what, we should have grabbed, we should have given away those junkie injectors to him, but that's okay. We will get rid of this odd trinket, I think. Because since we haven't examined it yet, it's still technically a trinket, and he's still interested in it, despite the fact that it's garbage. We'll fetch wire. Okay, that's going to be Red Rock. We're going to come up here. We're going to take a look at the crack. Down we go. Let's take a quick couple steps around, just see if we get any snap jaws. Snap jaws would be nice. Don't really want to tangle with a whole lot of seed spitting vines right now, if we can avoid it. So we're being a little bit careful here. Okay, all right, that is perfect. So let's put our compound boat on, first of all, and then we're going to reload it with some wooden arrow. We're just going to take a quick pot shot at that guy. There we go, there's a little buddy. So we do have, as you can see, Slam. So we are currently wielding a steel mace in our right hand. We do have some chain gloves. We're just wearing an apron, not that great, but it's all right. And we should be relatively okay, I think, here. Let's see, you're going to try to shoot me, huh? I'll shoot you. Take that. Okay, so we take the wooden arrows. There is also, though, bronze dagger, we'll grab that. We don't really need to carry around the short bow. We will rest up. Just get ourselves nice and healed. A Gently Cone, an Iron Battleax, and a Snapchat corpse, nah, trash. Snapshot Warlord, though. Don't love that. Let's slam him. Let's kill his buddy. Let's hit him a couple of times here. We're good. All right, I was going to say we probably are going to need to pop a witchwood, but we don't. That's fantastic. So the Iron Mace is not as good as what we have. I don't think we'll equip this just for funsies. What do we have? What do we have on our feet? Okay, yeah. So we do have decent things on our feet. This is a steel mace, right? Yeah, okay. So we don't need any of that, really, but we will take the dagger because we can sell it. Ah, let's just take it all because we can sell that. That is pretty easy to sell. Shoot him. A painted bronze dagger. Now, that's what I'm talking about. Let's take a look at this. A, let's take a look at this, come on. Bell bronze is shaped to a point in its handle wrapped in leather. Strength Cap 1. This item is painted with a scene from the life of ancient Sultan Gipper II. After murdering a foe by slaughtering her entire clan, Gipper the Second cemented her friendship with glassblowers by marrying Chegamas. Shemagus. No, never mind. 60 plus reputation with kinfolk of the Ursizer Pest. Cool, we'll take that for sure. Steel long sword, anything steel sells pretty well. It is heavy, so we do have to keep that in mind, but let's give him a bonk. He's just a normal corpse, nothing special about him. Okay, here we go, so our first real... problem. Hey, are you? Okay, you are friends with me. Okay, we're going to slam this wet horned chameleon. Good. And he's dead. All right. Did we get, we did not get XP for that. That's too bad. But he's dead, and that is important, so it's all good either way. Wow, this spider is tanky. Did not expect that. I wonder if because it's salt encrusted, it was harder to kill the normal. We will take all of that. We will smash him. Wet leather armor. Now, that is better than what we are currently wearing. So we are going to switch that. And let's grab this. Then we're going to go probably just back upstairs, quite honestly. Pop upstairs. We're going to pop upstairs. We're going to pop the Tam. and let's sell some of this stuff that we just picked up. Don't need that, or that. Torches are important for us right now. Did not mean to close that. We can get rid of this, and that lets us... Let's see here. Hmm, 12 pounds, $400. That is interesting. I bet you that's a weapon. This might be better than what we have currently. This is definitely better than what we have currently, though. So, what we should do, we've got 60 on us. Yeah, what we're going to do is we're going to trade. Okay, we are going to... take this off, because yeah, it's a 2, 2, and a strength cap of 3. So we want this ultimate conquer. Let's grab that. Okay, put this on, and now we are ready to bong things. We're going to head up. Get our lore from the statue up here, wherever it is. There we go. So that is our first historic site. It is no longer nighttime. Love that, love that. Okay. Let's see. Let's pop up. Oh, so our first historic site is right there. We are going to go for it. We're going to go try and, darn it, we're going to go try and get lost, I guess. We're still in the village, basically. We can just pop over here and ask this guy for directions. There we go. Okay. Come up, come over, over, and down. Now that's a nice little bit of... Oh, no. Okay. We're going to get bludgeon. Yes, yes, yes, yes. We're going to get... Nope, we're not going to get that. Because we've only got 14 skill points. That's okay. That's all right. We're good. We got this, right? We're going to increase... No, you know what? For survivability, we are going to increase our toughness right now so that we are not taking a minus 1. And then we are going to try to... I think slam these two. I was going to try and slam that one up into the other one, but maybe that's not going to work. All right, come on, get them. There we go, that's what I'm talking about. Okay, kill them. Now, there is a horned chameleon right there. We don't like that very much. It is a pain in the butt. Cantile's Chromatic and a wrench. So we do want these. We do want to get them. Oh, that horned chameleon is going to try and kill us, though. So what we're going to do is we are, keep hitting the wrong button. We're going to eat some witchwood. All right. We're going to smack him. We are confused right now. Because we ate which wood. I think we just killed him. Yep, we did. We're going to try to kill the others, too. Okay, I think that's it. Okay, good, good, good. This is not as good. This will take. Just in case we managed to actually make it to the stilt. That will be good for trade-in value. I don't think we're going to make it to the stilt. To be clear, we just came into our first historic site without really anything, which is usually, I would not recommend that, but, you know, we are trying to make it entertaining. for our first little dude here um okay i'll take that how's our weight doing so our weights up here 103 out of 315 we are able to um second we are able to uh use uh a lot of space we're able to take a lot of space let's read this and get it. There we go, okay. Auto Explorer, nope. Hey, are you running away from me? Don't do that. Oh, there's a cromling down here, and he is a friend. Oh, that's a friend. Oh, that's wonderful. Okay. Let us trade. You have a bunch of books, and that's kind of it. Okay, never mind. I do not need to trade. I do need to kill this bore, though. Okay. On a giant amoeba. Okay, we'll wait a turn. We'll smash him. And then these are all of our cromling's friends. So they're friends to the cromling, they're friends to us. A chrome revolver, beautiful. We will take the rest of that, too. Okay. Okay, now we're going to try and slam this pig backwards. Yeah, there we go. Okay, our health is dropped below 40. Keep hitting tab. All right, we are confused, but it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter, we know where these guys are, they're right in front of us, so we just keep hitting up until they die. and then we can wait a couple of turns. Not bad. Now, that is a missile up here. Weird artifact, that's a missile. Uh, who, okay. So this is a problem. Not a huge problem, it's just a musket turret, so I think we'll be okay. I think we're just going to try and... Let's sprint and then pop up. Yeah, we did it. Perfect. Flawless. No notes. So we did just take a carbide shield. That's huge. We're going to put that on. It does mean, oh, darn it, we can't put that on because then we won't have a torch. So for right now, we just have to wait. We will examine this. An H.E. I'll take it. It weighs a ton. It's usually not worth taking unless you have a missile launcher or can sell them. Or if you can break them down. They break down into some decent items, if I remember correctly. Okay. Now we're going to try and sprint up to this guy. Not something I usually recommend. Oh, we're in trouble. Okay. We're going to slam this one. I'm gonna try and kill this one quick. We did it. Legendary. Okay. Perfect. Flawless. I knew that was going to happen. I knew we'd be all right. The whole time. Okay, we're going to take that. Keep going. Slam again, just because it's fun. Ooh, and illuminated. Cantillo's chromatic, and an engraved bronze mace. Let's take a look at that. So, Sultan Gipper III, deep in the Stargazer District of Igashan, Gipper the 3rd, discovered Mamish. There he befriended the villagers of Ezra and helped sack a village and burn its homes to the ground. There we go. All right, that's going to give us location and reputation if we are using it. which we probably won't be, but it is good to know. All right, three of these guys, hey, I don't really want to get surrounded by you. Why don't you come into my tunnel? Why don't you get bonked so that you guys all get knocked backwards? You don't think I'm hated by Salamander's just yet, right? Yeah, the Salamander doesn't hate me yet. Good. Okay. No, come here. Come on, come down. You don't want to come down, fine. All right, that's it, hey? So there are stairs down here. I think, first, though, we're going to come up. We are going to try our best. Yeah, sure, let's look at these ruins. Something chirps. Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope. We're getting out of here. Darn. Let me keep going this way. Couple tiles. We should be below the village now, I think. Nope, maybe not. Darn. There we go. Okay, down we go. and now we can, what do we want to do here? Eat, that's what we wanted to do. We want it to go to the oven, eat delicious apple mats. Okay, we still have 47 drums of water right up here, so we can probably make it to the stilt. We're going to try, because if we can turn in all those books, we'll get a tidy bit. of XP. I think I'm one-off, yeah. Darn, okay, so we want to go far over to the edge. Ah, it's just a Scorpioch, that's not too bad. Okay, we regained our bearings, sweet. All right, that was the easiest trip to the stilt that I've made in a long time. I usually get lost a million times and die to dong gliders. We'll talk to Bela. That's just water ritual for the fun of it. Yeah, here you go. And we'll give you another secret. Why not? Live and drink. Okay. I... Yes. I am, I will go to Bayla, that gives me a yonder cane, and we will maybe get to use that. We'll see, probably not, but maybe. We will, what a ritual with this guy too, as well. Normally, I like to look and see, sure, let's take that, I like to look and see who they like and are disliked by, but on dailies, since it doesn't really matter. it doesn't really matter, you know. Look at that, get our Rush F lore, get that painted vase lore. Alright, we're going to go back and talk to Zapper again, and we are going to share these details. A little bit of XP, nice, nice. Pop up here. and you are a Glover and a librarian. There we go. Let's give books, all of those. So we're selling 13 of these, one of these, and one Illuminator for 169. So that is going to give us probably two levels. Right, we're level seven. Nope, just level seven. I do want to see, yeah, okay, if she is, he is, they are selling gloves. So that's cool. Okay, seven and a half, okay, not bad. Not bad. Let's take a look here at our skills. So we do have 366. We don't have enough for more int at this time, but that's okay. Let's see here, what do we do? Okay, let's pop over to one of these next tiles here. and we'll just auto explorer. Okay, you're a kipper? Yeah. You've anything fun for me today? Nope. Not particularly. All right. We do have that, I forgot, we picked up a chrome revolver there. So let's take a quick look here. We do have a gutsmonger, we have an ICAR merchant. Let's take a look at the ICAR merchant. Icor merchant. What do you have? Primordial soup, salt, ink, always nice. Yeah, odd trinkets. What do we think those are? light gleams of the edging of a small curio weighs zero. Well. Okay. Who do we have here, beekeeper, goat herder, and vintner? Nope. Uh, we are famished. Darn, okay. I'm going to pop up to this fire. Hey. You are a Svartum. Interesting. Very cool. Okay. I don't want to talk to you, crazy guy. I want to eat. There you go. Is that a... Okay, dervish of the Sightless Way. Okay. I thought it was a Samus Aaron clone, and I was like, I didn't think those guys can be Mechanist Converts. I think I'm right. I don't think they can be. Let's get rid of that. I don't know what these strange tubes are. We're going to get rid of them. They're probably folding chairs. Get rid of these. This shield I would actually like to be able to use. Let's go rid of this and these. That's going to be some sort of gun, probably a pistol, right? Three pounds, nine pounds. Not a pistol, then. What would be three pounds that would be at the gunsmith? Curious. Okay, well, I don't know. So, it's just going to be the way it is. All right. Is there anyone else? Have a Dasher, chef, blah, blah, blah. Okay, let's just pop up. Okay, we're going to come back down. I'm just going to see if we can zip. Oh, we did it. Okay. I'm going to go straight down. We're going to go straight down to the next. bash these guys. Okay, so a bunch of them. What we're going to do is we're going to put on, or is that revolver? You, here. Because we do have 100 slugs, so that's pretty good, all things considered. What else do I want? What do we have here? What kind of grenade is this? A stasis grenade. That is actually pretty decent for the situation we're in right now. Let's go to skills, though, and let's grab conch. Awesome. Let's take... Let's see. We do have staunch wounds. We have 216 left, so we could definitely take single weapon fighting here. Yes. Yeah, okay, and then finally... What should we take here? Fasting Way would be really nice. Not going to lie, but we can't afford that. So Long Blade Persuasion Pistol helps us right now with shooting things. Why not? We don't have to think too hard about this particular build. So we're going to conk this guy. We're going to slam this guy. And we are going to just keep smacking these guys. as much as we can till they die okay uh that's pretty decent take that uh salty bloody ranch blah blah blah blah nothing too crazy take both of those take that That's not what I meant to do. What I did mean to do was press R. Okay. Now, shoot her and for him, I guess. Ah, let's create some space and give him a slam. Give him a conk. go we are doing we are doing fairly good we are doing fairly good right now just smashing through these groups of people that's going to be another book so many books It's just free EXP, free extra EXP. Trying to Rush F, another bit of Rushf lore, always nice, and a whole bunch more books. That's what I'm talking about. Okay, take that all, take that all, take that all. This machine. Oh, we didn't mean to knock him through the wall, but cool that we did. This is not the final chest of this area. Oh, that is wonderful. Okay, let's take a look here. So, plus two willpower, minus 200 rep with unshelted reptiles, 1% chance to behead, unshilled reptiles on hit. That's pretty cool. Take a screenshot of that. We'll take that. We can go further down, we can get another chest. We know this because we have not found a credit wedge. There's always a credit wedge in the lowest chest that you can get to, right? And that's the main one that you can get to in these. So that's pretty cool. Sorry, we're down to 28 minutes. I had a phone call. I'm trying to figure out what the heck to do about my driveway that desperately needs more gravel put on it. I own a home, but I'm not what you'd call a handyman. I'm a programmer. That's not my standard wheelhouse, so I phoned people who know what the hell they're doing, and then I pray that it doesn't cause me too much money. The joys of home ownership. I'm gonna grab those, grab that, grab that, grab this, all right, uh, what were, yeah, okay, you, hey, uh, what did I do, I just, uh, I took the human corpse, okay, did not mean to take that, um, okay, carrying too much to move, yeah. Yeah, reasonably so, because this guy will weigh 200 pounds. Alright, get out of here. We're going to toss that guy's body. Stutted leather armor, equipped. Absolutely. We're going to take that. We are going to take off our... Where is it? Did I scroll past it? that, okay, drop that, what are you? A metal folding chair, of course. Okay, let's wait, just a couple of turns. Bonk. And a conch. Okay, grab that. Grab that. Grab that, grab that, okay. I would love to get to the bottom of this place and grab ourselves a credit wedge.…
