A sniper's worst nightmare (and a question) (lemmy.world)

My sniper was dominating level 23 with a tomahawk +8 and a speed-enhanced bow. Facing off three or four death eyes and scorpios (playing with swarm intelligence on), suddenly the tomahawk went spiraling down into the abyss! I think the sniper had lost line of sight to her target, and the tomahawk bounced off a wall and down it went. I thought the run was lost!

Fortunately, the tomahawk was somewhere in level 24! After sacrificing a few seeds to the gods of the forest in thanks, she went on to close Yog-Dzewa's eye forever.

Now my question: is it always the case that items that fall into the abyss will be found in the level below?

This is incorrect. Ring of Sharpshooting upgrades a weapon's damage as if it were a higher level. It does not change the level.

The entire reason to play sniper is to upgrade a thrown weapon and use the Shared Upgrades talent. Each upgrade gives your sniper shot +30% damage with the +3 talent.

Besides, you can't just will a Ring of Sharpshooting into existence. They are rare.

I wish they were rare actually rare, jeez. And that depends on whether you want +540% each time you throw your +18 weapon (but then you have to go search it back and alladat) , or +26 leveled shots from every weapon (22 from a level 21 sharpshooting ring, 4 from another +3 ring)
