So it&#8217;s IoTM time! Or it has been IoTM time. Yep.<\/p>\n<p>Twilight Heroes offers a set this month, the <a href=\"http:\/\/th.blandsauce.com\/wiki\/Foxy_sombrero_mask\">foxy sombrero mask<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/th.blandsauce.com\/wiki\/Foxy_caped_suit\">foxy caped suit<\/a>. Since they have the word &#8220;foxy&#8221; in them and everyone in game calls me Foxy (Thanks to Val) I couldn&#8217;t NOT get them, even if they did nothing! Luckily, they don&#8217;t do nothing.<\/p>\n<p>The standout piece, for me anyway, is clearly the sombrero mask. It offers an increase in farming profits, doubling my +chip bonus from the next nearest hat, the <a href=\"http:\/\/th.blandsauce.com\/wiki\/Royal_crown\">royal crown<\/a>. I&#8217;d wear it, even if it didn&#8217;t have &#8220;foxy&#8221; in the title. Clearly, though, this is a reference to Zorro more than anything, and I think that&#8217;s done well. The other abilities of the hat, that of increased enemy fumble chance, is&#8230; interesting. Very interesting indeed, especially considering the ability when worn with the suit, which lets you, Zorro-style, emblazon some initials onto your enemies when they fumble for a little extra damage. Apparently Cris pushed for the customizable initials for me. Heh. I&#8217;m flattered, and I do think that part is awesome, even if the only obvious choice of initials for me is &#8220;fox&#8221;. Heh. Customization rules! Also, the idea of me carving out my initials with, say, <a href=\"http:\/\/th.blandsauce.com\/wiki\/GigaGuy_cannon\">a cannon<\/a> makes me smile. In any case, I think the hat is a complete win, either as a farming aid alone or just being fun with the full suit.<\/p>\n<p>The main problem I have with the caped suit, though, is that it&#8217;s a suit. Suits take up both the shirt and pants slots. I mean, for a character who&#8217;s going for ranged weapons and reflex, the foxy caped suit offers some nice bonuses. The combo with the hat isn&#8217;t too impressive, but is appreciated. (The real combo benefit is the one on the hat, as far as I&#8217;m concerned.) The -10 seconds makes it on par with the Xentrium Breastplate, which is almost a requirement. But the fact remains that, if I equip this, I can&#8217;t equip both the <a href=\"http:\/\/th.blandsauce.com\/wiki\/Letter_shirt\">Letter Shirt<\/a> or the <a href=\"http:\/\/th.blandsauce.com\/wiki\/Amazing_Technicolor_Dreampants\">crazy rainbow pants<\/a>. Losing one of those I could handle, especially for the fun of the initials. (I keep my <a href=\"http:\/\/th.blandsauce.com\/wiki\/Zorromir%27s_double_tower_shield\">double tower shield<\/a> always equipped for the battlecry, even though there are much, much better farming options for that slot) Losing both&#8230; I just can&#8217;t justify that most of the time.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, though, I think this month is a pretty solid one. If nothing else, the hat is a good buy alone for anyone who wants to increase their in-game wealth with the added bonus of the fumble chance, and if you&#8217;re a player who doesn&#8217;t have, you know, most of the IoTMs like I do, the caped suit is probably a really good option if you&#8217;re playing, like, a ranged-attacking Gadgeteer or something.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, last I checked, it was February.
