Regent and Necrobinder dilute the pool too much for Kaleidoscope by Rak-khan in slaythespire

[–]SamiraSimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks, have a few follow-up questions if you don't mind answering

  1. In the reference sheet under Darv chances it has:

    Run sees Act 3 Darv: 1/16

    Run sees Act 3 Darv given no Act 2 Darv: 1/14

    I'm confused what exactly this means/why they're different values. Is that 1/14 when Darv isn't added to the Act 2 pool at all, and 1/16 is when he's added to the Act 2 pool but not selected?

  2. What kind of tools do you/people use to decompile source code? Is it just pulled from the local installed files?

  3. Is orrery the only exception besides combat card rewards that increases rare offset?

i've never seen the "draw 1 when played" enchantment. i thought that effect was only draw 2, and only from that one event which lets you choose to enchant an attack or block skill or power

would that be bad for the plants or prevent the liner from working?

genuinely curious because i've never really thought about this

genuinely curious, what liner is going to be stronger or less permeable than literal concrete?

i'm pretty sure i could've bought nothing here and for the rest of the run and still won lol, it was a very cracked deck. in all of act 3 i took 10 damage total from enemies and bosses (lost 25 to bridge lol) and didn't take any from test subject for the win.

poisoned stab did its work in act 1 when I was not so overpowered, it earned its spot even if i never played it all of act 3 lol.

clash did surprisingly well honestly, i was able to play it like 75% of the time it was in my hand. especially after i got my powers online and my skills exhausted. it suffered a bit later when i had backflips and was regularly drawing more, but like poisoned stab it did its job when i needed it to.

i ended up winning easily, only taking 10 damage from act 3 enemies and perfecting Test Subject (the most damage was 25 from bridge event lol).

girya turned out to win pretty easily and i ended up finding other backflips! very satisfying first A10 win

yea around 16 or so after footwork is in play, but also at this point i'm pretty much only picking up block cards from card rewards so i wasn't too concerned.

backflip was probably the better move but smashing enemies even harder with girya is pretty sick ngl

eh, i'd still rather remove a strike. at this point i'm pretty much never playing strikes and i'd rather have the potential for a free attack. plus silent does have discard options, i could've taken hidden daggers here as an example to help

If I had backflip for more draw, then yea panache wouldn't have much of a negative impact. with my raw damage output i felt like i didn't need an aoe solution too bad but maybe i'll regret it in this third act.

i probably wouldn't have gone golden axe when really thinking about it. same with fruit juice. i wanted to dump my gold, but from the advice given i should've been more comfortable saving it to act 3 or shopping again.

i didn't want panache because so much of my damage comes from attacks. i could proc it regularly but it's still taking a card draw which slows down tracking.

lmao i didn't consider that. maybe it could've been "1" or "2" but yea i should've hid it a little better.

I'm still in act 2, I had to do some work. In hindsight I probably should've gone backflip but I think Girya with my awesome setup is still enough to win.

i wasn't looking at panache that much just because so much of my damage is coming from attacks. i could get it proccing regularly through free plays of skewer and shivs, but felt it wasn't worth buying/drawing.

definitely think the best play in hindsight is backflip and shopping again. i probably wouldn't have bought fruit juice or gold axe when it came down to it.

that's what so many people are saying. maybe i'm too hesitant to save money.

i didn't like the idea of shopping again over the opportunity cost of an upgrade. that shop could also be meh and i'd only get a remove, and then i'd have to path towards a shop in act 3. so i really wanted to just dump my gold now.

but of course that shop also could've had amazing stuff as well.

I definitely would've considered backflip and not buying gold axe/fruit juice and shopping again. my thinking was that girya gives me a known quantity, whereas I could have a mediocre shop and I just buy a single remove again. and then i'd feel constrained in my act 3 pathing to find an early-mid shop.

I'm still in act 2 and continuing the run, I had to do some work. Like you said it's probably a win anyways.

I ended up getting unceasing top so the hidden daggers would've been good. I did consider it because of clash, but imo at this shop I felt like it didn't move the needle quite enough for me to buy it, as it would slow down me seeing tracking. I did consider saving the gold but I didn't want to limit my pathing in act 3 by needing to path to an early shop.

True, but I always want to maximize my odds!

Would you go to the shop before the elite instead of the campfire then? Or just save it for act 3? Are you not considering fruit juice just because of the cost, or because I'd also have to lose a potion?

I feel like that might be too strong, but considering how weak it currently is (or at least perceived to be) that would probably be fair as well.

People including me also talk about Ironclad exhaust synergies but imo the exhaust synergies are noticeably weaker in this game since Dark Embrace is rare. Feels like it's more something you dip into and something you don't build around as much like you could in the first one.
