Usage[edit | edit source]

Standard Use[edit | edit source]

  • If a living, enemy player is on your space: Eat a random living, enemy player on your space in order to kill them. Counts as eating a generic Meat, Animal Products, Food item.
  • For each of the first 5 players you eat with Pacman, you gain a bonus. (This can grant up to 75 Rupees total.)
  • First: 5 Rupees
  • Second: 10 Rupees
  • Third: 15 Rupees
  • Fourth: 20 Rupees
  • Fifth: 25 Rupees and a random item from the Generic great item-givers pool.
  • If no living, enemy player is on your space: Nothing occurs besides this skill going on cooldown for 1 turn.

Notes[edit | edit source]

  • After eating the first 5 players, there's no more bonus. Extending the Pacman skill won't reset this. However, any time you completely lose the skill (regardless of amount eaten), the amount of players eaten in relation to the eat bonuses becomes 0, so you can get more bonus if you regain the skill.

Effects[edit | edit source]

  • Death Immunity/Unable To Kill PlayerName: If a player would eat you with Pacman, they fail to eat you, and they instead move 2-10 spaces forward. (Does not activate if Hallucination or Unable To Eat Or Drink activates.)
  • Unable To Eat Or Drink: Any time you would eat with Pacman (excluding eating the Dungeon Crawl Ghost), you fail to eat, also Pacman goes on cooldown for 1 turn.
  • Hallucination: Evade Pacman and move 1 space forward. (Does not activate if Hallucination or Unable To Eat Or Drink activates.)
  • Kansei Dorifto

Event Use[edit | edit source]

  • You normally fail if you are Unable To Eat Or Drink. (If you have Star Power and are facing the Lv 2 or 3 Small Golem, you still succeed, but without eating it.)
  • Use against the Ghost of the Dungeon Crawl. You lose the Pacman skill regardless of the remaining duration. Counts as eating a generic Food item for Food-related effects. Currently succeeds even while Unable To Eat Or Drink.
  • Use against The Bear!; you eat it, killing it. Counts as eating a generic Meat, Animal Products, Food item.
  • If you are Unable To Eat Or Drink, you instead die without eating it or killing it.
  • Pre-No.: You fail.
  • Post-No.: You eat him, killing him. Counts as eating a generic Meat, Animal Products, Food item.
  • You fail without eating him if you are Unable To Eat Or Drink.
  • Use at the Catapult; in essence, you launch a fake "yourself" (which functions identically to a generic projectile for the Catapult) 25-30 spaces in the chosen direction; a random player within a 6-space radius of the "landing spot" is targeted if possible (unknown if a teammate can be targeted):
  • If a living, enemy player is targeted: Eat them, killing them. (This is pretty much a standard Pacman eat in every way, even interacting with Hallucination, Death Immunity, Unable To Eat Or Drink, and other Food-related effects in the same ways. Killer Instincts and Legacy Of The Void even act as though a same space kill is made when it's not.) Then, the real "you" moves to the "landing spot" of the fake "you".
  • If a Dead player is targeted: The real "you" moves to the "landing spot" of the fake "you", and you survive. Nothing else happens.
  • If no player is targeted: You die, then the real "you" moves to the "landing spot" of the fake "you".
