CloverPit, yet another indie roguelike hit, has tons of items that can help you in your endeavor of paying off your never-ending debt.
One such item is Barathrum, though the game doesn't do enough to explain how it works or what it actually does. In fact, it's a very useful item that can tremendously improve your odds of achieving massive scores, so here's everything you need to know.
Barathrum in CloverPit, explained
Barathrum is one of the rarest items in CloverPit, unlocked after you've picked up 100 upgrades from the phone. This can take a while (each phone upgrade comes after each deadline, meaning you need 100 deadlines completed to get the item).
Once you do have it unlocked, you'll have the chance to possess one of the most powerful items in the game, which can duplicate phone upgrades, but with a catch. Barathrum bans the phone upgrade you've selected after getting the item. Discarding Barathrum duplicates each phone upgrade, granting you double effects.
This means that if you were to get the Charm Space upgrade, you could make it give you two instead by discarding Barathrum after picking it. This item is best for long-term gain, with your duplicating many useful effects at once while sacrificing a few deadlines in return.
Barathrum stacks with Megaphone, allowing you to get multiples of each upgrade, since Megaphone triggers both on the upgrade you get from the phone and the duplicate from Barathrum. For example, you could get extra pattern triggers, then sell Barahtrum, which should activate the Megaphone twice, giving you +4 pattern triggers instead of one.
