Topic | Which game of chance would you rather play? |
PMarth2002 01/24/21 12:22:15 AM #11 | $500 is too low for any shot at death, and i've personally witnessed and rolled dice rolls that would result in death with those odds. 10k, 5% chance of death is tempting, but I play way too much D&D. I've seen how often those natural 1s come up. 100k, 15% chance of death is extremely tempting, as 100k is life changing money. 60/40 is unacceptable odds when death is on the line, even for 1 million. Those middle options are tempting but i think i'll pass. I think the risk i'm willing to accept is is 1 million at 5% odds, and 10 million at 15%. Maybe 10/20% at those reward levels. --- You load sixteen tons, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt |

Yeah, when I have a Skill-based run going, I always end up fighting this guy. Or when I have a Lightning build going I run into that three-mob Elite fight with the ones that look like crystals. Yeah that's him. Well, minus the sword, not sure who you're thinking of with that, the act 2 boss, the champ?.

PMarth2002 01/22/21 8:42:29 AM #11 | MabusIncarnate posted... Defense first, always. Defend, defend, defend. Be patient. It's so enticing to throw out those attacks, but you aren't gonna win if you are dead. Even if a 5 defense card blocks 1 damage total, it's worth it. I was playing way too aggressive and saying "i'd rather take 2 damage and attack for 12 instead of block the 2 damage" and it just wasn't working in the deeper runs. My first potential victory failed by 3 hit points, the final boss of the game had 20 health. If I had played just one more defensive card that run I would have won. Some fights hard counter this strategy, and the enemies will out scale you if you try this. The gremlin nob elite fight in chapter 1 for example. --- You load sixteen tons, what do you get?

PMarth2002 01/22/21 8:31:13 AM #10 | Bad_Mojo posted... I'll have to record me playing soon so I can upload it and you can tell me all the things I'm doing wrong, lol. It's not so much I don't know what cards to look out for, it's mostly getting those cards, and cracking down and figuring out the patterns of the mobs. Like if there are 3 of them, which one is going to hit hard on turn 3, for example. enemy patterns are partially random and partially conditional. enemies generally will have some combinations of weaker attacks, stronger attacks, and some sort of buff/debuff to use. They'll generally do not use the stronger attacks or buff/debuff more than two turns in a row (and some buffs are never used consecutively, or are only once per fight), and the weaker attacks three times in a row, and some attacks will go off only on certain turns. ToadallyAwesome posted... You want your deck lean and mean. You want to take out the starter cards if you can hit the shop at the right timing. Usually around 15 cards is about right but people can correct me on that. No idea how garoshi manages to do it, i've never had a winning deck less than 22 or 23 cards. My decks tend to fall between 25-30 cards. I tend to aim for 2-3 elites per act, sometimes four if I've got a super strong deck or a really solid path with good branches. in addition to the relic, elites also give you more gold and a higher chance for a rare card. --- You load sixteen tons, what do you get?

PMarth2002 01/21/21 10:07:11 PM #3 | ^ agreed on the list of cards. If you find biased cognition, you'll also want to pick up a source of artifact or orange pellets. Creative AI is a ton of fun when it gets going, but its a too expensive and slow for most hallway fights, but against bosses, it can lead to absolutely ridiculous scaling. I'd also add blasphemy to the list of premium watcher cards. The side effect sounds scary, but you can do a shit ton of damage in one turn with it, and the upgraded version retains, so you don't need to worry about it clogging up your deck. Also, personally, I'm a big fan of battle hymn, but from what i've seen of garoshi's runs, he's got a faster playstyle than I do.
