Candy Box 2 (October 24th) |OT| Idle, Kill, Repeat \o/
- Thread starter PixyJunket
- Start date
I'm sure it does, it probably just takes a lot. I've put in 54k and I'm still at 100.
Damn this Candy Box game! It's 3 am and I have to get up fairly early tomorrow =( What the hell have I done?
*edit* Wait, I got a button to build a mill
for 10k lps. I wasn't paying attention at when I got it, I would guess at 50k. Building the mill didn't catch me any more lp/s. I now have to feed the mill more lollipops.
*edit II*
Okay, feeding the mill caused me to generate 2 candies per second instead of 1.
Welcome to the candy party! \o/ How do you like next-gen so far?
I am nearing 10k candies on the ground. So far little has happened. 10k and still nothing. I would suggest spending your candies, because with 10k I could have started to make much more at this point.
100k lollipops planted and still at 100lps... So I built the next thing.
And now I'm about to built a pond... pretty sure I know where this is going.
You threw 1 720 candies on the ground for me. So much better than in CB1.

Sequel of the year right here.
Candies heal you. Lollipops convert into candies. Chocolate bars will enchant your equipment. Oops, apparently as someone else said it just enchants your gloves, at least in the beginning. The red gloves occasionally cast fireballs in combat. Also holy CRAP the red fireballs help a ton. I wonder how good the pink ones are.
That's all I have so far. I haven't spent much time at the well.

Just discovered that lol did you manage to get his weapon?
Pink ones are awesome.
They heal you in quests, much faster even than you're healed on the world map.
Oh, man, I bet that might have been better.
and okay, so the troll's weapon is just 100% drop. I figured =)
how do you get different armor? I'm still running around with the basic leather gloves and boots.
Damn I was really counting on that working. I was only 2k away from getting it.

I seem stuck... I think the next beatable thing is the octopus king but it's all rng. Twice he's lived with 4 health.
Wondering if weapon speed affects fireball speed... doesn't seem like it.
Edit: Killed the octopus, disappointing reward.

Any known rewards for progressing in it/beating it?
Yes, next up is a hole in the ground that's a falling minigame and the castle is another side-scroll combat game.

Just found a hidden item
the pogostick, now I can jump
NoI am unsure what to do next actually...
I just managed to beat it using the monkey wizard staff and red gloves. with lots of potions,
Any tips for the monkey wizard? as everytime I fight him I teleport around and he just jumps over me again :|
You threw 60 380 candies on the ground
I did it for you. I did it all for you. And nothing happened.

Also
the Octupus King drops a crown the obsidian enchantment will sometimes summon an octo king to help you fight. The Jaspers crown will frequently cast a fireball spell around you. I've yet to thoroughly test them both, but I did summon more than 1 octo king. Jaspers seems kind of OP.
You can also enchant the Monkey King's staff. It causes it to cast more spells more frequently, it says.

I love you... now I can get through the forest without potions.
A farther along update. I don't know if it gets much more difficult, but I feel like I'm really just ripping through everything now and it happened almost immediately. It's 4 am, though, and I really have to stop.
Upon getting the monkey's staff enchanted, the red gloves, and the jasper crown from the octo king, everything just wilts away. I completed the dive into the sea and it gave me shell powder, which multiplies my lollipop gain by 3. I haven't done the castle, the hole, the lighthouse, and I haven't bought the sorcerer's hat or merchants. It seems like all of that will probably come easily now, though. I hope it continues on like this for a while, but I'm impressed by the improvements and it's just as addicting as the first.

Just started playing candybox 1, there goes my life.
I hate you guys for making me discover this game
Buy the spellbook from the sorceress. It comes with a teleport spell. There might be other options but using teleport worked for me.

Ah, half the screen is cut off on my iPhone browser.
Maybe I'm crazy, but I played the first one on my phone, mostly. This one seems to be misaligned on the phone. =(
Starts out ok, but as soon as I do any "action" it cuts off some characters on the left - can't read the first words of sentences, etc.
Time to find out if my work blocks this already. =)

And with this item you can
ride on top of the wolves in the forest
How the hell do you do that they just kill me anyway.
There an option for non-local saves under the local saves.

Well they still attack, but you can skip some of them that way.
