refreshedit data

The Hole in the Sky is found atop The Beanstalk, which is located in The Nearby Plains (once you've been able to plant an enchanted bean).

To reach the Hole in the Sky, you need a steam-powered model rocketship, obtained from the Top Floor of The Castle in the Clouds in the Sky. If you try to go there without the model rocketship, you will receive this message:

You can see it, but you can't get to it without some means of traveling...

TO SPACE

A primary stat of 100 is suggested. If your main stat isn't high enough, you'll see the following message:

You shouldn't be here yet.

(It is recommended that you have at least 100 <mainstat> to adventure here.)

Notes

• As stated on a Jick and Skully show (Needs Date), the male and female monsters are mechanically similiar -- stats and item drops included (e.g., the Box and Trouser Snake are, aside from text and image, the same monster).
• The Astronomer is slightly more likely to show up than the other monsters. There are two Astronomers with a rejection rate of 25%, which means that on any given adventure in this area, there is a 25% chance that an Astronomer simply will not show up, even accounting for queue effects. When the queue is empty, the Astronomer will show up 14.3% of the time. When it is full of 5 other monsters, the Astronomer will show up 22.2% of the time. See On the Trail for encounter frequency when seeking the Astronomer bounty.

History

• The three constellations Burrowing Bishop, Skinflute and Twig and Berries were first found when The LAAAAME Observatory opened its doors on May 15, 2006.
• The alternate Ascension Encounters were created on the Tuesday update of March 28, 2007.
• Before February 18, 2013, to reach the Hole in the Sky, you needed an intragalactic rowboat, obtained by combining a S.O.C.K. with a quantum egg. The S.O.C.K. is obtained by adventuring in The Penultimate Fantasy Airship. The egg was obtained by successfully using a giant castle map, which required turning the chore wheel in The Castle in the Clouds in the Sky.
  • Older accounts that have the intragalactic rowboat do not need the steam-powered model rocketship to access the Hole.

References

• Apart from the Astronomer, all of the monsters' names in this area are euphemisms for the male and female genitals.
• "Hole in the Sky" may be a reference to the song "Monkey Gone to Heaven" by The Pixies or the song "hole in the sky" by Black Sabbath.
