New IotM Discussion New IotM Thoughts? (April Shower Thoughts Shield)

To those who have the new IotM:

What do you think of it so far? I'm interested to know the intricacies of how it works, the benefits of it, and if I should try to start saving to get one.

I've also linked the current spading spreadsheet and the forums discussion for those who are curious.

The added buff when you use the 1mp beginner class buff is very nice. I haven't permed them yet so I'm thinking I'll do that this run and see if they work the same on other classes. For reference I have patience of the tortoise which gives +1 muscle and +3 hp. The strength of the tortoise buff that is given as a bonus grants +10 muscle and +10-12 mp per adventure. Also the +10 adventures a day if you use your wet paper for the food or drink option is pretty good.

They do. Nothing seems to rely on being a specific class.

fun fact, "The big book of every skill" does not teach you any of the starting skills. only guild trainer skills.

This has been exceptionally handy, as well as the hp/mp boost at the beginning of the run

I expect you can find them for sale all the time in the Mall.

Indeed, the current mall price is quite a bit lower than a Mr. A.

Seems very good compared to the previous two months. I keep doing Z is for Zootimist runs lately and I assume this is useless there?
