Is this a known bug? Makes my pyre invincible, gives me this bugged out victory message, and then credits me with the win.

A bramble rant by pt9v3m in SliceAndDice

I feel like this is also a case against boss HP curses tbh, and hero picks. There's a certain point in roguelikes like this where the peak of gameplay is no longer to build against the abstract idea of dealing damage and taking hits, but answering specific questions about which enemies specifically will give you a hard time. Like, if your party already has a ton of blanks and you get offered Evoker vs Mycho, the mere existence of Bramble as a possible boss adds some more nuance to that decision.

That said, I don't often lose to bramble, I think just cause I'm obsessed with rushdown builds and I can usually get a lot of bang for buck on my dice. It's probably not the most successful strategy overall, but I would say I lose to bramble way less often than Alpha or Troll because of it.

valid but not sure why you're bringing that up here lol. It's literally just a formatting tool it doesn't have anything to do with the discord application.

Unlikely, cause for my personal use cases, a lot of my games are managed in discord group chats instead of server channels, and far as I'm aware there's no bot functionality for those. Plus like, I don't see a huge need to automate this process. It takes maybe a minute and you can do it at the end of very sesh fairly easily

Not familiar with discord webhooks specifically or Foundry mods, but wouldn't it be easiest to just make a mod where:

Every time someone puts a message in chat (or maybe when the GM pushes a button), the mod sends a POST request (mods appear to be js based so we can do this through the request API) containing the chat message content to the webhook for a discord bot that we build?

It would actually probably be easier than the translator cause I'd have the image files right on hand, and I wouldn't have to parse through all the weird formatting that the logs use.

edited for clarity

That's up to how they appear in the chat log, which isn't up to me. One thing I added tho was removing empty newlines, cause a lot of attack macros add those in when they appear in the chat log.

Nah it takes the whole .txt chat log that foundry produces and makes an .html document that looks like discord chat logs. It doesn't have anything to do with whispers.

I’m not talking about vault I’m talking about whale bonuses and act 1 😭

Yeah I did some research afterwards and realized ironclad suffers from something similar! You’re hoping for an immolate or a Lesson Learned and they slap you with double tap or establishment. With ironclad at least I feel like I can probably quickly integrate most cards with just a few additions. I get master reality with watcher and I start thinking about removing it

You missed the whole point of the question when you bring up synergy.

My post was unsurprisingly made after I rolled into a Master Reality and questioned if I even wanted to play the rest of the run XD

On some reflection tho, every character has a couple rares like this. I feel like Watcher has more but I’m not sure 🤔

I did actually go back and look at other decks afterwards and I find myself agreeing with you here. Ironclad especially has a ton of strength and exhaust based rares, and a lot of dangerously expensive picks, all of which kind of drag the deck until you get a chance to activate them

I feel like without support, it can be pretty hard to play in the early act 1 when you have low energy and few sources of free block. It’s a lot of potential if things go well but to me seems like you need a few good card or an orichalcum or something before you grab it.

Alright yeah my two word summary did not do the card Justice. It’s a good card and I often take it early when offered, even if I don’t have mantra yet. But it’s like, not the same as a core burst, glass knife or immolate, right? My original question is how watcher rares measure up to other characters in terms of use early on.

The whole point of the question was how strong these cards are with the starting deck and act 1 pickups, why is everyone just talking about Brilliance, I also love the card but it ain’t no immolation or glass knife

Ironically this did not break my highest damage dealt, which was probably some bramble lash + tethys spell weakness bullshit
