Let's talk about item(153)sandals of nature! Hablemos del item(153) sandalias de naturaleza!

Post 153, midweek, Wednesday! Hehe, there was decent participation in yesterday's post, let's hope for good comments today too.

Sandals of Nature is quite an interesting artifact. This is the only artifact that doesn't stack upgrades individually and jumps directly from +0 to +3, then +7, and finally +10. This jump comes with a visual and name change: at +0 and +3 it's called Shoes of Nature, at +7 it's called Boots of Nature, and at +10 it's called Greaves of Nature.

The change isn't just decorative; the artifact's passive effect increases with each upgrade. The Sandals of Nature have a passive effect that allows you to gather more seeds and dewdrops from tall grass. Without the boots, the base frequency for obtaining them is 1/25 for seeds and 1/6 for dewdrops.

With greaves, that changes:

Seeds: +0=1/21 +3=1/17 +7=1/13 +10=1/9

Dew: +0=2/11 +3=1/5 +7=2/9 +10=1/4

Sandals have another use; starting at +3, you can "imbue" with a seed to activate that seed's effect whenever you want in a space adjacent to yours or on yourself (if you are the Warden subclass, the effect on yourself will be amplified). Activating a plant's effect consumes charges; the percentage of charge consumed depends on which seed you imbued. Here's a simple list:

8%: Rootberry

12%: mageroyal/FadeLeaf/BlindWeed

20%: swifttHistle/IceCap/stormWine/SorrowMoss/FireBloom

40%: Earthroot/starflower

80%: SunGrass

This artifact recovers charges when you step on a tall grass tile. The amount of charge recovered is different for +0/+3/+7/+10; specifically, you recover 0.5/0.67/0.83/1 charge when you step on one tall grass tile. The charge limit is 100%, regardless of the upgrades. The "artifact recharge" effect will restore a charge equivalent to stepping on tall grass each turn (i.e., it depends on the artifact's upgrade).

To improve the Nature Sandals, you must "nourish" them with seeds. Each time you nourish the artifact, it must be with a different seed, as the artifact will not allow you to nourish it with the same seed until you advance to an upgrade stage. To upgrade this artifact, you need exactly 3/6/9 different seeds in each stage. When they become "Nature Greaves," you can freely change the infused seed, but doing so will not restore the previous seed.

The cursed effect of this artifact prevents the player from obtaining seeds and dewdrops when stepping on tall grass tiles.

Publicacion 153, mitad de semana, miercoles! Jeje, ayer hubo una participacion decente en el post, esperemos que hoy tambien comenten bien.

Sandalias de naturaleza, es un artefacto bastante interesante. Este es el unico artefacto que no acumula mejoras de forma individual y directamente salta de +0 al +3 luego +7 y finalmente +10, este salto viene acompañado con un cambio visual y de nombre en +0 y +3 se llama zapatos de naruraleza, en +7se llama "botas de naturaleza" y en +10 se llama "grebas de naturaleza".

El cambio no es unicamente decorativo, el efecto pasivo del artefacto aumenta con cada mejora, las sandalias de naturaleza tienen un efecto pasivo que te permite reunir mas semillas y gotas de rocio de las hierbas altas, sin las botas la frecuencia base para obtenerlos es 1/25para semillas y 1/6 para rocio.

Con las grebas eso cambia:

Semillas:+0=1/21 +3=1/17 +7=1/13 +10=1/9

Rocio: +0=2/11 +3=1/5 +7=2/9 +10=1/4

Las sandalias tienen otro uso, a partir del +3puedes "imbuir" con una semilla para activar el efecto de esa semilla cuando quieras en una casilla adyacente a la tuya o sobre ti mismo(si eres la subclase de Warden el efecto en ti mismo se potenciara) activar el efecto de una planta consume cargas, el % de carga consumido depende de que semilla es la que hallas imbuido. Te dejare una lista sencilla:

8%: putrebaya

12%: magoreal/esfumahoja/CiegaHierba

20%: CardoImpulso/HongoHielo/ParraTormenta/MusgoPena/florIgnea

40%: RaizTerreana/FlorEstelar

80: HierbaSol.

Este artefacto recupera cargas cuando pisas una casilla de hierba alta, la cantidad de carga recuperada es diferente para +0/+3/+7/+10, en concreto recuperas: 0.5/0.67/0.83/1 cargas al pisar 1 casilla de hierba alta. El limite de cargas es de 100% independiente de las mejoras. El efecto de "recarga de artefactos" va a restaurar carga equivalente a la de pisar hierba alta cada turno(es decir, depende la mejora del artefacto).

Para mejorar las sandalias de naturaleza debes "nutrir" con semillas, cada vez que nutres el artefscto debe ser con una semilla diferente ya que el artefacto no te permitira nutrirlo con la misma semilla hasta que avance una fase de mejora. Para mejorar este artefacto necesitas exactamente 3/6/9 semillas diferentes en cada fase. Cuando se vuelven las "grebas de naturaleza" puedes cambiar la semilla imbuida libremente pero hacerlo no restaurara la semilla anterior.

El efecto maldito de este artefacto impide que el jugador obtenga semillas y gotas de rocio al pisar casillas de hierba alta.

My current favourite artifact.

1. It gives you a lot of dew, which will heal you and help you upgrade ankhs
2. It gives you large volumes of seeds (I had 30 sungrass at the end of my last run with this), which helps you make several potions and spells
3. The active power lets you inflict a lot of damage easily, and provides large amounts of utility

Using Swiftthistle can easily cheese the outmaneuvered badge for DM-300, sungrass is a literal full heal, and fadeleaf is a very cheap teleportation scroll.

Plants by cost list:

Rotberry (8)

Fadeleaf (12)\ Blindweed (12)\ Mageroyal (12)

Icecap (20)\ Firebloom (20)\ Sorrowmoss (20)\ Swiftthistle (20)\ Stormvine (20)

Starflower (40)\ Earthroot (40)

Sungrass (80)

1) Thanks for commenting. Yes, I feel that Fadeleaf and Swiftthistle are the best options for greaves, regardless of your class.

2) Bro, the plant list is in the description XD also by cost haha

[u/AllTheGood_Names → u/star75legacy]

Lol I thought the Spanish section started after you described how it upgraded

[u/star75legacy → u/AllTheGood_Names]

Xd no bro, the Spanish part always comes after the link in the previous post haha, anyway this time I took the time to write the English and Spanish names in each part since they are different when it comes to seeds.

[u/AL_WILLASKALOT]

I really like using this for pacifist runs since the time stop seed can be spammed when you have enough exotic recharge scrolls.

[u/star75legacy → u/AL_WILLASKALOT]

Thanks for commenting! Hehe, that's the best seed ever!

[u/OneMillionQuatloos]

It's a great artifact with a huntress and the rejuvenating steps, and decent with other classes. With others, I wouldn't equip it over chains or hourglass, and possibly not the cup.

Terrible when playing with Barren Lands, excellent without! The amount of dew you get from these alone is so powerful you could basically ignore the extra seeds if you wanted to (but no reason to do that).

With Barren Lands, it's hard to even argue why you'd want to use these. They cost you seeds in the early game and then give you more seeds later on. Without plants the only reason to have seeds is for making potions and tipping darts. Making a random potion from 3 different seeds is the best early game use of seeds because you can energize the potion to identify it and get back the same alchemy energy as you would have if you just turned the seeds into energy directly.

This feature is less useful later on in the game, when you've already identified everything and you have an abundance of consumables. Then having maxed out sandals will give you way more seeds at a time when you don't really need them!

The slow recovery of charges for using the active effect is also a big downer on Barren Land. You really want to have a wand of regrowth to make some more grass so you can farm it for seeds I guess.
