Retrospecs
From TheKolWiki
Now that you've gotten used to these glasses, it strikes you as kind of weird that they work way better when you're looking backwards. (In-game plural: pairs of Retrospecs) |

Notes
- Grants the combat skill Detect Weakness, a once per fight deleveling skill.
- After completing a combat with the Retrospecs equipped, a non-conditional item that failed to drop in that combat will be selected. For the next 10 combats with the Retrospecs equipped, you will have an X% chance to get that item, where X is equal to the base drop rate of that item:
- You look behind you and notice an item you missed earlier.
You acquire... something.
- Only one item is tracked at a time. After completing a second combat with a missed item drop, the Retrospecs potential drop will be automatically replaced by the new item. If multiple items are missed in a single combat, the Retrospecs will select the first missed item, and then there will be a 50% chance for that item to be replaced by the second missed item, the second missed item has a 50% chance of being replaced by the third, and so on:
Number of missed drops | 1 missed drop | 2 missed drops | 3 missed drops | 4 missed drops |
---|---|---|---|---|
Item chance | 100% | 50%, 50% | 25%, 25%, 50% | 12.5%, 12.5%, 25%, 50% |
- When a desired item is being "held" in the specs (after failing to drop normally), you can maximize your chances of milking it from the specs by making sure your next 10 fights have no eligible replacements: either because the monsters have no such eligible drops, or because you are able to hit the +item% threshold necessary to ensure all such drops drop normally. This includes:
- dense lianas - particularly useful as an item-catching reserve that doesn't interrupt your flow
- PR's plastic pirate
- flaming monstera
- Bosses such as Boss Bat, Knob Goblin King, Bonerdagon, Groar, all 5 Hidden City protectors, Ed
- 8-Bit Realm zones, with +150% item drops
- lobsterfrogman
- nightstands in The Haunted Bedroom
- Spawn of Wally
