I blame Gordias Savage for this mentality :P

On-topic, I have a few more suggestions:

  • A set of rare floor effects that ensure every mob drops chests of a certain rank. (one for wood (potions), Gold (Pomanders) and Platinum (Aetherpool upgrades), Using Pomanders of Fortune will increase the Rank, and there is still a chance mobs will drop higher rank chests on floors with the Wood or Gold versions of this effect.
  • Pomander of Magnetism: A Pomander that ensures that Platinum chests do not fail on the current floor (as in every chest will increase the Arms/Armor points as long as they aren't at the cap)
  • Pomander of Luring: Works just like the Luring traps. But will summon the Pygmaloi or Mimic mobs in rooms with them (even if they were killed), It also has a chance of summoning the Deceased NPC mobs in a room with another Deceased NPC.
  • A Boss whose gimmick is summoning the aforementioned Deceased NPCs as adds, who must be killed again before the boss can be defeated. The mobs can be taken from the Current pool as well as include NPCs that perished in the Calamity or the MSQ (With the exclusion of Ysayle, Hauchefaunt, Moenbryda, Noraxia, Ritayan, Livia, Gaius, Xande, Louisoux and Nael. Save for a possible reappearance in the later 100 floors. [reasons include spoilers and that I think one must die with regrets to be able to turn into the undead NPCs we fight there])
  • As a boss...Ratatoskr. Surely the dragon whose death started the Dragonsong war and caused her broodbrothers to be reclusive or vengeance driving would have some regrets (yes also spoilers. Though they might gate floors 50-100 behind Heavensward purchase)
  • Some Boss dialogue that goes into detail on the Void, either hinting at certain things in the Lorebook or bringing new details to light.
