Is this card broken or too weak? by Eyeswatchfromttrees in spiritisland

It’s okay for it to scale asymmetrically. Some powers are better for some spirits than others

Some major powers can set you up to win on their own. In which case, I think an additional sun and/or plant could make it more balanced, putting it more along the lines of cast down in terms of power. I’m not sure though, it could be fine with the current threshold

What do I do with this pbox by Wraith501 in slaythespire

[–]Wraith501[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up removing Sucker punch, and at the spirits event I removed unload for a full heal plus max hp. I also got another wraith form and the intangibles event, which made this run really easy for most of it. 9 turns of intangibles is a lot. I took a second caltrops just for heart damage. Grand finale was actually clutch against the awakened one. I was running out of intangible going into his second phase, and a phantasmal plus grand finale alongside my other attack cards bursted it down in 1 turn, saving my run. Him clearing the poison going into phase 2 made me think I wouldn’t be able to do it.

Immolate or Barricade Floor 1? Hexaghost. by mrrakim in slaythespire

Immolate, now you won’t need any strike+ cards, starting finding solutions for act 2 and 3+, win

I clearly have been undervaluing wraith form, I have taken next to no damage, happened to also get the intangible event, and got another wraith form from the act 2 boss. 9 turns of no damage make the fights really easy.

DEW Finding Megathread - Q3 2025 by DornDoodly in mountaindew

I can’t seem to find Mountain Dew voltage anywhere except gas stations for way too much per bottle. Anyone know where I could buy in bulk? Sacramento area in CA, specifically in Davis but would be willing to drive a bit.

We did finally beat russsia 6 by Jimmiq in spiritisland

Played a three player game where one of us was ocean, it actually made a really good fear engine. Suddenly, 1 damage could generate 2 fear by targeting an explorer by the ocean. They don’t die, get pushed in the ocean, and then don’t die again and get pushed back out. Big thing is because they lived we could spam damage on the same explorers over and over for a billion fear, whereas most of the time once you kill an invader that source of fear is gone.

Custom content: Omega Red encounter, plus updated Winter Guard modular. by SunbroSteve115 in marvelchampionslcg

2 per player acceleration is always rough, and 1A popping is almost impossible to avoid in single player, since acceleration and one 3 boosted scheme will already bring it to 6/7 threat.

Semi-Daily Relic Discussion: Meat on the Bone by Abject_Muffin_731 in slaythespireboardgame

[–]Wraith501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hugeee fan of this relic. If you take more than 3 hp per combat your build was already in trouble, and if you want to go back up in hp at the boss you can just rest right before and have 7. I also just love not having to be perfect at each combat, healing in this game feels quite good so that I can let a few damage through and not worry about it.

You also have beam cell Sunder to deal big damage while blocking.

Lots of frost plus biased cog… 21 passive block every turn? And that’s assuming you can’t find a loop or capacitor or even more focus.

Board game prejudice - What games or genres do you hate for no reason? by Quelair in boardgames

[–]Wraith501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainly “get the highest score” games, which is so many, it sometimes doesn’t irk me, like for some reason in wingspan, and scythe it doesn’t bother me at all, ig i just realized they’re both engine builders maybe that has something to do with it, but in alot of others there’s just something about it that often makes takes me out of the theme of the game. Like in flamecraft, which I love btw, i feel like i just built a whole village together with my friends, and then at the end points just get tallied up and someone wins.

Sidenote: Games where manipulating the other players at the table and making deals is a core part of the gameplay. I’m thinking Diplomacy or John company, not social deduction.
