Firmfired Slingshot

The Firmfired Slingshot is an item in Dream Game.

Overview
The Firmfired Slingshot is an item that can be obtained via the Repercussions of Fissure badge or stealth pilot badge. It is an item that fires small pellets that, when come in contact with surfaces, will adapt the user's body to the surface that it came in contact with. It is also able of coming closer with the essence of certain entities upon hitting them with a pellet.

The Firmfired Slingshot is only available while sleeping. It will not show up in the user's inventory while in Windy Island.

Abilities
When the Firmfired Slingshot is used, it will fire a pellet towards where the user is aiming, as long as they have sufficient pellets in stock. All pellets that hit enemies will deal very small damage; various pellets are required to kill a single enemy. The user starts with 32 pellets, but they can be refilled.

Surface adapting
When one of your pellets comes in contact with a surface, your body will change its colors, materials and transparency to fit that of the surface you just hit with the pellet.

Essence grasping
Some entities have certain essences to them. When the user hits those entities with a pellet from the Firmfired Slingshot, the user will "feel themselves closer to an essence", allowing them to use abilities related to the entity that they hit. Each essence unlocks special abilities for the user, some essences even additionally giving the user a few cosmetic changes.

Once a sleepwalker becomes one with the essence of an entity, they will not be able to revert the changes until they rejoin the server or suffer a penalty death.

The current essences in the game are: {| class="article-table"

Refilling pellets
Both the Delete Hammer and a Net are required to refill Firmfired Slingshot pellets.

Firmfired Slingshot pellets can only be refilled in the BallRoom deep dream. After arriving in the aforementioned deep dream, the user must break one of the big balls 5 times, using the Delete Hammer, to turn them into smaller balls. After they're small enough, the user needs to use a Net to capture the tiny balls, which will turn them into pellets for your Firmfired Slingshot. Each small ball that gets captured gives the user 10 pellets.

Tips

 * Avoid wasting pellets for no reason, as you have limited pellets.
 * In case you lose all your pellets, remember you can refill them in the BallRoom deep dream, located in Vulcanic Heights.
 * Certain objects can turn your body fully invisible, as long as you don't have any hats.
 * Press the [=] key to drop all of your current hats, if you wish to be fully invisible.
 * However, enemies and other NPCs can still chase after you, even if you're invisible.
 * Additionally, the Tech Sack's explosion can temporarily reveal you, so it is recommended to avoid being near the explosion radius of those.
 * Make sure you hit the right entity if you wish to get their essence. Otherwise, you'll be stuck with an essence that you cannot get rid of until you penalty die or rejoin the server.
 * You can gain multiple essences by using the Delete Hammer's ability on the large pole located in Ocean Lab's testing hangar. It will 'save' your essence(s) and allow you to obtain another essence. You can do this up to 4 times allowing you to have 4 essences at once. You can stack essences with this.
 * You can also remove your essence by clicking the green button on one of the poles located in the corners of Ocean Lab's testing hangar. However do note this sets your character back to normal so other character attributes you have obtained outside of essences will also be gone too. This includes MaxHealth, JumpPower, WalkSpeed and others.

Trivia

 * The Firmfired Slingshot's icon and in-game appearence were both inspired by the Surefire Slingshot toy, manufactured by Monkey Business Sports.
