    Did you check your health bar while picking it up? Also, doesn't its description on pick-up say some stats? I know those are part of the reference, but still…
     
    • Crimbo Hardstyle

      Crimbo Hardstyle Big Damn Hero

      I pick it up every time I'm able to access the area and I've never been able to discern any changes from picking it up. It is a mystery.
       
      • Shrooblord

        Shrooblord Void-Bound Voyager

        The description is rather elusive too:

        Str up 2>5m or better offer @@@@@@


        Or something like that.
         
        • Venom

          Venom Pangalactic Porcupine

          The reason the description is saying that is because about 5 years ago in the game MapleStory (Where this is referring to).
          You would train at this place called pig's beach all day and find white t-shirts that gave +2 str or some other stat +2

          People would take these and go to the freemarket spamming S> White t-shirt +2 str. Offer me! @@@@@@@@@@

          They would use the ''@'' to make the chat balloons rise above other players so they could see it.
          I don't think it has a real use in risk of rain yet however.

            It actually increases armor by 3, just like the shirt does in MS :X

              Ahhaaaa.
              I guess what was confusing me was that I expected the effects of the Boarlet to be caused by the shirt, leading to believe it should grant some evasion chance somehow.
              That's pretty useful!

                  Hopoo that Maplestory cameo like was an awesome add, this game is going to be awesome... cant stop playing it

                    I would love to see more secrets like that. Slyly add them in and tell no-one in the patch notes and see how long till the community stumbles across them. References galore, perhaps a Dev land with pixelated pictures of everyone staring creepily at the player. :rofl:

                        I actually added this random skewed/weird golem in the middle of nowhere that says creepy text then opens your disk drive. I forgot about it a while after and then it freaked me really bad out when I saw it again, so I took it out.

                          Oh my god, I would love to see what that originally looked like. A secret like that is amazing, could be one of those random occurrences like the Meat Ninja teaser in Super Meat Boy.
