Frankenline

The **Frankenline** is a landmark found in the Flower Bed biome. It is located on the western end of the Koi Pond near the stone wall of the Upper Grasslands.

The player can interact with the Frankenline by drawing on the horizontal and vertical axes via the knobs on the sides with different colors chosen with a button on the front. If the player wishes to erase any current drawings, they can do so by pressing the “Lobotomize” button; this will also play various classic Halloween-themed sound effects.

The Frankenline SCA.B is located on top of the Frankenline.

## Trivia

* There was a contest for drawing art using the landmark.
* Frankenline is a play on the name *Frankenstein*.
* The Frankenline is based on the Etch-A-Sketch toy, specifically the pocket version.
	+ Functionally, this version is dramatically different, as unlike the Etch-A-Sketch, the Frankenline uses a more anachronistically digital monitor.
* Unlike the Jack-O-Lantern, the Halloween-themed Frankenline was kept in the game as a festive location after the first Halloween event.

Grounded for Repairs (Quest)

* Find what's weakening one of the lasers.

**Grounded for Repairs** is the quest started after the The Mysterious Machine Quest. It tasks the player with repairing the two lasers that are broken to fix the machine.

## Walkthrough

After completing the Mysterious Machine Quest, only one laser is working, with one being obstructed and the other blinking. The obstructed one is easily fixed by chopping the Grass that is blocking the laser, but the blinking one is much harder to fix. To fix it, they must go to the bottom of the laser and kill all the Lawn Mites chewing on the wire, including the part of the wire that goes into a nearby cave. Once they are all killed, the quest will be completed and the The Mysterious Machine Part 2 Quest will start.
Hot Tub

The **Hot Tub** is a useful Décor structure unlocked after reaching Coziness Level 3, it can be sat in like other chairs, but gives the additional effect of Hot Spring, like the Charcoal Hot Springs. This effect will slowly heal the player for as long as they are in the Hot Tub.

## Customization

Diving Bell Spider

* Koi Pond
* Pond Caves
* Pond Depths
* Pond Lab

* Web Fiber (0-3)

**Rare Drop**

* Diving Bell Spider Chunk (0-2)
* Web Fiber (0-2)

## Inflicts

The **Diving Bell Spider** is a hostile arachnid. Diving Bell Spiders are found underwater in the Koi Pond biome and in most Pond Caves. They swim around underwater and serve as one of the primary threats of the Koi Pond.

## Behavior

Diving Bell Spiders swim underwater, commonly found alone, or in groups. They commonly wander the pond in search of prey to kill. When attacking, they have multiple single bite attacks, and lack any combos.

### Interaction With Player

The Diving Bell Spider is immediately hostile to the player. A Diving Bell Spider attacks the player using its normal attack behavior. The spider has similar strength to an Orb Weaver and its attacks can deal a lot of damage, as players are likely using their head and leg slots for diving gear instead of their standard armor.

When killed, a Diving Bell Spider will replenish 35% of the player's oxygen meter, for a minimum of 60 seconds.

### Interaction With Other Creatures

The Diving Bell Spider will commonly attack the passive creatures of the pond as a source of food. The most common of these are Tadpoles and Water Fleas, but will prioritize Water Fleas more than Tadpoles.

## Advanced Loot Table

This is a more advanced covering of the loot-table of Diving Bell Spider. Each item has an independent chance and count, in which the chance is the chance it can drop and the count is the amount of items that have that chance. If a count larger than 1 is in one section, then each item has an independent chance from one another (EX: Instead of getting say 2 of a resource, you can get 1 with a 70% chance and another with an additional 70% chance). In terms of Stealing, it can take one item from every section of the loot table, so even if a item count is say 5, the player will only steal one from that section.

Creature Loot Tables also tend to have large amounts of 1% items, which is intended to make stealing more rare items harder, as the player is more likely to steal the large amounts of 1% items than a singular 50% item.

**Note**: For consistency sake, all duplicate categories have a multiplier next to them, but function as unique loot types when say using Stealing.

  Diving Bell Spider Chunk **x2** | 1
  Web Fiber | 3
  Web Fiber **x2** | 1

## Strategy

Diving Bell Spiders are one of the most formidable foes of the pond, but most of their attacks can be easily blocked with weapons. Their charge attacks can be difficult to block due to their delayed attack speed, and delayed weapon block speed. When attempting to attack them, the player should have at least an upgraded Pebblet Dagger, or preferably the Spider Fang Dagger, Stinger Spear, or even the Rotten Stinger Spear in the pond to easily kill it.

## Trivia

* Though not seen in-game, it is likely that the silk air bubbles on the plant life in the pond was weaved by Diving Bell Spiders.
Diving The Depths (Quest)

* Craft a Pebblet Dagger.
* Craft Fin Flops.
* Analyze an Eelgrass Strand.
* Craft a Gill Tube.

## Walkthrough

The first thing the quest tasks the player with is finding some Lilypad Wax, which can be found underneath the large lilypads in the Koi Pond. Once found, analyze the wax to unlock the Fin Flops and Pebblet Dagger. Using this dagger, kill 4 Water Boatman and harvest more Lilypad Wax, and some Eelgrass Strands from the bottom of the pond. With the Eelgrass, analyze it to unlock the Gill Tube. With all the materials and some Silk Rope for the Gill Tube, craft the Fin Flops and Gill Tube to complete the quest.

Healbasa

**Healbasa** is a throwable healing item that can heal players and Creatures. Upon hitting a surface, it will explode into a puddle of blood jelly and heal any players and Creatures in range. Unlike Fiber Bandages, Healbasa's heal is instantaneous rather than gradual.

If its flight is interrupted by a ceiling, it will quickly lose all momentum and fall to the ground, but will still explode after 3 seconds.

If the explosion happens near a player or a creature, it will deal significant damage to anything near it. This can happen mid-air, but can easily happen if its flight path is interrupted with a ceiling.

Damage Augments

**Damage Augments** are a special attribute of tools that alter the damage of a weapon on top of its normal damage type. There are five augments present in the game: *Mighty, Spicy, Salty, Fresh, and Sour*. Each type plays into the damage resistance systems for all creatures.

In addition to their extra special damage, some augments have unique interactions with edible Creatures, in which Salty turns edible creatures into jerky while Spicy turns them into roast in place of their raw meat.

## Pre-Augmented Weapons

Certain weapons crafted by the player are *inherently* augmented. However, these weapons can only be crafted after attaining the unique recipe for each. There are 7 weapons made this way. Each one deals built-in elemental damage. Because of this, these weapons cannot be upgraded in any path other than Mighty (in which they will keep their damage augment).

## Manual Augmentation

Nearly every tool can be can be augmented by the player with the use of a Smithing Station. In order for a tool to be eligible for manual augmentation, it must first be upgraded to Level 5 with Brittle Whetstones. To progress past that point, players will have to choose between five upgrade paths: *Mighty, Spicy, Salty, Fresh, and Sour*. Each path requires a unique resource to unlock and advance that path further. Only one augment can be applied to a tool at once, and tools can not be reverted back to an un-augmented state.

Its sleek effect increases damage of acid attacks, which can strengthen its set bonus, which has a chance to launch an extra splash of acid when attacking targets that just does extra damage. The important part is how acid damage bypasses defensive stats, it is what makes it so good against high defense bosses, as the acid does the same amount of damage no matter the defense of the enemy.

## Walkthrough

After the explosion, the player will need to go to the explosion which is located at the back of the Oak Hill biome. This area can be reached by going straight from the Mysterious Machine and avoiding the log fence as it is infested by Orb Weavers. The oak tree itself is infested with Wolf Spiders so caution is advised. Overall, no items are needed to access the source of the explosion. Once at the source, a busted hallway will be there known as the Oak Lab. This leads to a single downwards corridor leading to two paths, in which one of the doors is locked. In the main room that the path will lead to, a console can be found in the back of the room with 6 red buttons. The goal of the player is to turn all the buttons green, though some buttons will turn others off and vice versa. After all have been turned green, a door will open that will lead to a single TAYZ.T that the player must kill. After it is killed, the hallway will lead to a knocked out BURG.L that the player can help in a similar way to reviving a player. After BURG.L is done talking, the quest will be complete.
Koi Fish

## Inflicts

The **Koi Fish** is an aquatic creature found in the Koi Pond biome. It's the primary threat of this biome.

It moves the large plant-life in the area similar to how larger Creatures move grass, and will commonly attack prey. The Koi is also blind in one eye, which is easily noticeable due to it's left eye being completely missing. It has two attacks, a quick bite and a slow eating attack which both instantly kill any creature caught within its jaws.

### Interaction With Player

The Koi Fish is hostile to the player. When the player is spotted, it will swim towards the player and attempt to eat them. Scales can be collected from the Koi, with it being a 10% chance of dropping per attack. The Koi Fish can be distracted by Decoy Bait thrown by the player.

### Interaction With Other Creatures

The Koi Fish will occasionally eat Tadpoles in the Koi Pond, instantly killing them on the spot. It doesn't intentionally eat other creatures.

## Strategy

The Koi Fish cannot be killed and must be avoided at all costs when navigating the pond. It can be distracted using Decoy Bait, or the player can take advantage of its blind eye. If being chased, it is recommended to place Decoy Bait, or get to land as quickly as possible.

## Notes

* The Koi Fish does not have a normal creature card, only having a gold one the player automatically obtains.

## Trivia

* According to the poem on the back of HAMS Test Day 7, the Koi fish's name is Trudy II.
	+ This name appears to be in reference to Wendell's wife, Trudy.
		- The fish's name could be a homage to the plant in the musical *Little Shop of Horrors*, which is named Audrey II, after a similar love interest in the namer's life.
* According to the same poem, she lost her eye due to Wendell slapping her on the back to save her from choking on the Wedding Ring.
