Dew Vial

Dew Vial

Dew Vial is a special item in Remixed Dungeon that allows players to store excess dewdrops for later consumption. It also provides an emergency healing mechanism if the hero is in mortal danger.

Description

The Dew Vial is a tiny vessel designed to hold dewdrops. Players can collect dewdrops into it when found in high grass, and then drink them when needed. Most importantly, if the vial is full when the player's health reaches zero, the dewdrops are consumed automatically to heal the player and prevent death.

Mechanics

  • Storage Capacity: Can hold up to 10 dewdrops (MAX_VOLUME constant)
  • Automatic Healing: If full and player HP reaches 0, automatically consumed to heal the character
  • Manual Drinking: Can be consumed manually to heal a variable amount based on stored dewdrops
  • Visual Indicator: Glows white when full to indicate its charged state (Glowing.WHITE effect)
  • Healing Formula: Healing amount follows the formula: `ceil(volume^(log10(20)) / 20 * character_HT)`
  • Image Variation: Shows different images based on volume (0, 1, 2, or 3 depending on fullness)
  • Auto-Resurrect: When player HP is 0, auto-drinking first resurrects the hero with 1 HP before healing

Stats

  • Maximum Volume: 10 dewdrops capacity (MAX_VOLUME constant)
  • Auto-Drink Feature: Automatically consumed when HP reaches 0 if full
  • Healing Calculation: Healing amount based on formula: `ceil(volume^(log10(20)) / 20 * character_HT)`
  • Weight: 0 (no weight)
  • Type: Consumable item with storage capability
  • Drink Time: Takes 1f time units to consume manually (TIME_TO_DRINK constant)

Strategy

  • Collect dewdrops in high grass and store in the vial for emergencies
  • A full vial acts as a “second chance” when in mortal danger
  • Very useful for early-game survival when healing items are scarce
  • Keep the vial charged as you descend deeper into the dungeon
  • Auto-resurrect feature can save you even from death if the vial is full

Obtaining

  • Can be found in shops, occasionally
  • Sometimes available as dungeon loot
  • More valuable to keep than individual dewdrops
