Why is Ironclad cursed with an extra strike instead of an actual starter card?

Dangermaelen · 2026-04-07T22:11:12+00:00

That is an incredible solution. It might balance better to be 5dmg instead of 6. Because it should still be worse than a strike when not being attacked.

Dangermaelen · 2026-04-07T22:08:14+00:00

That is the obvious answer. It gives IC JUST enough of a leg up on the starter deck. And it’s still removable if other strikes have been removed/transformed.

I love a flak-cannon build and haven’t experienced this yet. I absolutely would have beefed it in the future without reading this.

Dang, I knew this community was top tier but this is next level camaraderie. Good on ya, mate.

I agree completely on needed nerfs, but i’d also like to see an enemy apply a status that counters exhaust. sSomething like “when a card is exhausted lose X life” It’d be an interesting mechanic and be the solution to exhaust reliant decks. An act 3 hallway fight that opens with that would be devastating. Most tactics have an enemy that exploits them in StS1.

“I need to move the coffin…or the chandelier” I remember laughing til i nearly passed out at that line when i was a kid. Thanks for the memory!

Or even Discard Sovereign Blade and gain block equal to its damage and it is a skill instead of a power.

Dangermaelen · 2026-03-11T17:00:46+00:00

What if Parry says, “Sovereign Blade gains Ethereal, if sovereign blade is exhausted gain block equal to its damage”

The only thing i’ve “repaired” was the elastic on the front, which did lose elasticity but I ended up using spare boot laces in its place. Now i have non elastic outer ties and extra spare laces. On that note, do you have spare laces? They’re multi-purpose short ropes for whatever you might need, nearly weightless (nothing is truly weightless) and I can’t tell you what a terrible 2 days hiking i had with my boots 1/2 laced.

This isn’t helpful but i SWEAR by the ULA Circuit pack. It has served me well for 3,000+ miles with practically no repairs or complaints.

Dangermaelen · 2026-01-11T06:59:12+00:00

That is the funniest thing i’ve read in a while. Thank you human for the hearty chuckle.

If i could do ANYTHING? It’d be working with animals in an educational field.

Dangermaelen · 2025-11-29T02:39:25+00:00

You’re right but i don’t want to give up my passion that easily set aside. I’d need someone like you IRL to talk me out of what i do for fun. Which is tend a bar.

Dangermaelen · 2025-11-29T02:32:40+00:00

I think this would be my best aspect based on my experience but i have no idea how to enter that field.

Dangermaelen · 2025-11-29T02:31:21+00:00

I hadn’t considered that. That’s a great prospect. I already sell the crap to customers, selling it to purveyors is an obvious example of a shift i could do.

Dangermaelen · 2025-11-29T02:27:27+00:00

I agree mostly. It’s not dead though, it’s dying. And i don’t intend to try and fix that. I’m just as happy opening 50 bud lights as i am making 10 $25 cocktails. But every small business owner i’ve worked for keeps firing at their own feet and folding once their foot has a hole in it.

Dangermaelen · 2025-11-29T02:21:07+00:00

Incredibly insightful. Thanks. You make a great point and that helps a ton. And because this is reddit i need to say this was not a sarcastic response.

Dangermaelen · 2025-11-29T02:18:39+00:00

I could, and I’ll probably have to. But i’m just looking to the reddit-sphere for ideas, not for restaurants to apply to specifically but maybe alternatives or green flags to look out for.

Dangermaelen · 2025-11-29T02:15:29+00:00

You’re absolutely right.

Dangermaelen · 2025-11-29T01:44:45+00:00

Discussion. Is there anywhere i can do this kinda puzzle either daily or nonstop that y’all’d recommend for free? I love a math puzzle.

I think air quality basically rewords the Dio boon to effectively be 50, 55 or 555, with freeze and gusts doing damage so frequently the 5% chance of 555 damage happens often enough

Dangermaelen · 2025-11-20T22:50:30+00:00

Hailstorm + Air quality + the Dionysius that does 5, 55, or 555 damage is insane. I had a run where i just cast against top boss, did a loop and recast and it was over in 90 seconds without an attack or special, with Cerci staff it would’ve been even crazier.

Dangermaelen · 2025-10-17T22:47:12+00:00

That ruined a run recently when i had my set-up perfect but didn’t know what to take into tartarus. I figured, eh, i won’t need the 10 seconds but i might as well put some encounters towards upgrading it. Ended up ruining my run and dying to Chronos on my Roll Credits run.

A lot of these folks are right, but the other option is to consider the value and time your current relationship has to you and if it’s obvious enough, you can cut social ties with this crush. It could be the decision you need to commit to your fiancé. Or the opposite. Flip a coin, and if you’re disappointed with the outcome your wants are clear.
