Hey Dungeoneers,
The next Shattered Pixel Dungeon update will include a new trinket! It's a simpler one this time, with more of a cute aesthetic. It's a little reference to a favorite ferret.
The Ferret Tuft boosts evasion for all characters, including both allies and enemies! That might sound like a mixed bag, but keep in mind that there are lots of ways to counter enemy evasion: magic, most ability attacks, surprise attacks, etc. You'll need to make more use of these than usual to benefit from the trinket, but the extra defensive power can be well worth it.
(Image Description: An image showing the item info window for the new Ferret Tuft item. It reads: "Ferret Tuft +3: A tuft of silky white ferret fur, held together by a lime green ribbon tied into a bow. Ferrets are known for their agility, mischievousness, and lack of integrity. Some of that power seems to radiate from the trinket, enhancing the evasion of anything nearby. At its current level this trinket will increase the evasion of all characters by 60%.")
Currently the evasion boost does stack muliplicatively, although I do reserve the right to change that to additive in the future (code for evasion/acc boosts is starting to need a refactor anyway)
Yes it will be possible to drop the trinket, although juggling items is generally not a strategy that I want to encourage. If it becomes a common strat I will likely implement a cooldown so that the evasion boost still applies for a bit after dropping.
