After almost 10 years, the rat skull will finally return in Shattered Pixel Dungeon v2.4.0 as one of the game’s new trinkets! It was formerly a quest item that I removed way back in v0.2.1. Now the skull will passively boost the chance for you to encounter rare exotic enemies like albino rats or crystal mimics. This means a bit more challenge, but also more rare loot!
High risk high reward
Trinkets are going to have all sorts of different utility functions, but I want at least a couple of them to fall into this category, yeah.
