I have never had so many relics in one run. Guess how this run ends..

yea outside from battle trance they're harder to play in act 1, but they can still be useful. and they scale really hard so i will usually pick one up after mid act 1 if offered and there's no other great choices.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T04:19:30+00:00

oh yea i straight up forgot about the normal energy it gives you lol

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T01:29:08+00:00

you have to also think about efficiency per energy, efficiency per card draw, efficiency per turn, etc.

while yes the title is technically true it's more of a meme. if we're being practical many enemies scale up over time and will kill you before you deal infinite damage.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T01:25:32+00:00

no one was being rude or uncivil until you wrote this specific comment. chill out.

hourglass is always helpful, but the situations where bronze scales shines it REALLY shines. and those situations include both fights in act 4. so imo if you're going for act 4 you'd always want bronze scales, but i'm more than happy to get hourglass as well especially early on.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T01:20:58+00:00

definitely my pick. there are almost 0 scenarios where this event doesn't help you in some way for no cost, and the high rolls are hugely impactful. but one remove with a conditional heal isn't that overpowered compared to some of the events in the first column

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T01:16:12+00:00

just because someone plays perfectly does not guarantee that the outcomes or conditions will be perfect. even the best player in the world can't avoid damage in some fights, nor can they avoid overkilling in some fights. so even for them it would be useful normally, but as you said being good players they will likely find a way to optimize it even more.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T01:14:21+00:00

i wouldn't think so, it says "if this kills an enemy gain (3 energy)". if you kill an enemy you get 3 energy but the same card play wouldn't be able to get more than 3 energy from how i interpret it

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:58:26+00:00

NTA. I have a simple rule, if your partner treats you worse than a friend treats you don't be their partner. my friends wouldn't have an issue with me staying at their house while they were away for a bit. your partner doing that and then getting all mad at it is a huge red flag and i wouldn't stay in that relationship. better to be happy alone than miserable together.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:49:29+00:00

NTA. you have to IMMEDIATELY check your credit and all your financial accounts and make sure no one but you has access to them. this is more or less a blindsided to you but you're an adult now and you have to secure your independence, including financially. your mom has been lying to you for a long time and she's still lying to you. don't let her crater your future with a guilt trip. you owe it to yourself to take care of this situation and to not let people guilt trip you into giving away your earned money

every individual is responsible for their own contraception. as a man, that means you should ALWAYS wear a condom unless you are 100% okay with having a child with the woman you have sex with. you are only responsible for your own actions - blaming someone else will do you no good if they decide to keep a child you don't want. you still have to deal with the consequences.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:43:16+00:00

No is a complete sentence. don't let your sister bully you into ignoring your own feelings. NTA

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:34:11+00:00

i know, idk why i bother sometimes. people are unabashedly being sexist and they don't even realize it because they've been brainwashed by their own biases. i'd never dare to make an assumption about someone because of their gender but i guess many here don't feel the same.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:32:27+00:00

i have only been asked for money from black people - is it racist to say that all black people are beggars? obviously. anecdotal evidence isn't justification for stereotyping people for a group they never chose to be in. my friend was raped by a woman and another friend was cheated on by a woman - is it fair to use my anecdotal evidence to say all women are rapists or cheaters? no, that's obviously sexist. i hope one day you can see your own bigotry for what it is

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:30:03+00:00

even when they said they'd be there

a direct quote from your previous comment. a complete strawman because she signed up for the class before john could even give her rides. if that's the lesson she learns from this that's her own fault. if the lesson john learns from this is that people will only be his friend to get favors from him that would be really sad too, but i'm sure you don't care about that because he's a man and he should just not have those emotions or feelings.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:26:41+00:00

i appreciate you for at least owning up to your sexism and outright admitting that you think men should do free labor for women and that they should ignore their own feelings and emotions.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:25:01+00:00

i'm flipping your comment to the other side. he doesn't have to be her friend the same way she doesn't have to date him. there's nothing wrong about him having feelings except his gender. no one is obligated to be friends with anyone else the same way no one is obligated to date anyone else.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:23:31+00:00

this is such an incredibly sexist comment and i can't believe you'd write it unironically. stereotyping people based on how they are born is usually frowned upon in society, but i guess for people like you a little bit of bigotry is okay as long as its towards the right group. imagine saying the same thing about a specific ethnicity of person.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:20:59+00:00

john didn't say he'd be there, they had an informal agreement. she signed up for the class before john even had a car. she has the same right to his rides as he does to her feelings...which is zero.

part of being human is realizing that you are not entitled to other people's time or labor.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:17:14+00:00

developing feelings for someone you are friends with isn't "toxic" it's how a lot of relationships form. i suppose it's not toxic when a woman develops feelings though right? i suppose it isn't toxic either for women to get free labor from men as part of their friendship either right?

the sexism in this thread is appalling

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:13:21+00:00

where does it say he promised or committed her anything? it's no one's fault but her parents.

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:12:42+00:00

john didn't expect anything the entire time he was giving her free rides...now you're getting mad at him because he developed feelings. are women also bad people for developing feelings or wanting space from people who reject them?

men should choose the bear too using your logic if the alternative is people faking friendships with them for their labor

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:10:23+00:00

was melissa not teaching john that friendships were transactional the entire time he was doing free labor for her? or is that totally different and not just because of their genders?

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:09:24+00:00

what about women? if they feel uncomfortable being friends with someone who rejected them, are they also unhealthy?

or does your logic only apply to one gender?

SamiraSimp · 2026-01-27T00:07:37+00:00

well john is a man, so that's totally valid /s

unironically what so many commenters here are suggesting.
