does this have any practical application? didn't see anyone mention it but just skimmed the thread

Most people wouldn't care, but it does work out as an accessibility feature. Some of us rely on our ears to be our eyes.

Just got Regal Gauntlets from ITG on a Mars Orb. (Unfortunately, my last 2 chests where both Brown, so no Mars Reward transformation. I wasn't going to risk an ITG on 50/50 mimic.

Wow, SE said: "It's even better than you anticipated!"

This message appeared when the reward chest transformed into a Prismatic chest ...so I guess, the Hint upgraded from an LT Hint to a ITG at the end of the run. But what did I get from the ITG loot pool? A Gusterion. So...yay?

Venus Orb.
No LTs
Just ITG Prismatic.
Hint indicated as such but with a "?" at the end.

I also have a habit of kneeling at the terminal coffer before I open it. Call me old fashioned, I guess? I did notice that the mouse cursor would de-target / remove itself from the terminal coffer. This made doing a /kneel quite difficult. (This de-target is something SE mentioned in update notes 1 or 2 months back). :shrug:

Screenshot didn't work, but I have the log.

I started with the front center chest and worked my way around clockwise. When there were only two chests left, the final one - immediately to the right of the first one I opened - turned prismatic.

I'm having a hard time following happened here. I can confirm that I got an ITG from a prismatic chest (Reward chest, 9th chest, whatever you want to call it). Then the terminal coffer gave me another ITG:

But...in your case, working backwards, you got a noise from the terminal coffer, before that prismatic (ITG) ....and before that, your 8th chest (was ITG first)? Is that right?

I would imagine 8th was ITG, then rainbow pop 9th, then terminal

To answer your question, I've been saving up silver vouchers for a while:

Also, if anyone care about this double attack effect, I went out with a Level 1 Club and Offhand Kraken Club and I confirm that the DA+100% completely negates Kraken Club's OAX features (due to how we understand Multi-attack processing to be prioritized). Every mainhand swing does 2 hits + 2 hits in the offhand with Kraken Club. (Obviously, this is pending the 95% or 98% accuracy cap, whatever it is these days).

If I missed something or you want to see other tests, please let me know.

Also, this test cost me about ~100k. :)

So fun fact, those thud sound effects are treated like /tell chimes and <call> sounds: they ignore your sound settings. So much for, say, listening to music or videos in the background.

The question is when to stop and cash out. I understood this to some degree before patch and why I burned all my vouchers before patch dropped. Now I'm here trying to understand when to cash out.

No intention to judge or demoralize you, but unlike other stuff (hello Crepuscular items) it's pretty easy to target farming Null items.
Well arguably the mask has a slightly worse drop rate, but the three other items are pretty common.
If you still need anything it shouldn't take you more than a few days to get what you want!

I'd help you but you're on a different server alas.
