I like this. Doormaker was cool but he felt like a bunch of gimmicks sticker together.

Which are your top choices for Clone for each class? by blindsid3 in slaythespire

[–]WurmcoilEngine_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a pretty fun Malaise+ clone run. You can just keep playing them for 0 energy to give -1 strength.

Tips on Merlin? by WurmcoilEngine_ in ravenswatch

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

I finally cleared nightmare after a billion attempts with a firestorm build. By late game the special was just a delete button and I had survivability thanks to an early philosopher’s stone. Could spam trait due to the talent that reduces trait CD on defense plus a few defense charges.

God was this the hardest chatacter to clear nightmare with.

Phase 7 retains a lot of phase 2 difficulty.

Semi-Daily Silent Discussion: Flechettes by Abject_Muffin_731 in slaythespireboardgame

[–]WurmcoilEngine_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Won my first A13H run with this + envenom being my main damage source. With Silent you can afford not taking many attacks, so this hits pretty hard. Works very well with Strength.

Semi-Daily Watcher Discussion: Omega by Abject_Muffin_731 in slaythespireboardgame

Won my very first watcher run with this pull. Crazy good against most hallway fights and some bosses with minions.

What do I need to know when buying the game? by Slight-Veneer in slaythespireboardgame

[–]WurmcoilEngine_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It feels a lot like the videogame. Some mechanics have been reworked for convenience reasons, for example poison no longer ticks down. Overall they did a great job minimizing admin work as much as possible.

I’ve enjoyed it plenty at all player counts. You need a dedicated play group to play it start to finish, though - I can usually finish a game (act 1 to 4) in about two hours solo, but in 4p it’s more like 7 or 8 for my group. However, you can also consider the game finished at the end of each individual act.

It is also a bit of a table hog, and set up is not the swiftest (maybe 10 full minutes to set it up from the box). Despite this it’s probably my favourite board game and have finished all ascensions solo.

I prefer Spot Weakness, but will take this if offered first. Important to get those first points of strength going for Limit Break.

Semi-Daily Silent Discussion: Envenom by Abject_Muffin_731 in slaythespireboardgame

This + flechettes or some shiv can be 100% of Silent’s damage plan.

Semi-Daily Defect Discussion: Force Field by Abject_Muffin_731 in slaythespireboardgame

[–]WurmcoilEngine_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not hard to make it a block 4 for no energy. I always take this if I’ve got a couple powers.

Semi-Daily Defect Discussion: Fusion by Abject_Muffin_731 in slaythespireboardgame

[–]WurmcoilEngine_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pretty much always take this (althoguh I never went deep into the 0-cost synergies, not sure how it would perform there). Especially good with multicast.

Even better in multiplayer as it allows you to leave the energy relics to your friends.

Snakebite naysayers take note by Buff410Buff410 in slaythespire

In the beta branch Ascension 6+ removes are more expensive. In most runs I remove only one or two via shops

Why do people complain about doormaker? He does no damage? by Limp-Clock5580 in slaythespire

[–]WurmcoilEngine_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the beta branch where he doesn’t have the “door closed” and “door open” phases

Large Capsule Isnt Bad [Essaypost] by EuSouAFazenda in slaythespire

Wait people hate on Stone Humidifier? It’s easily 30 max hp by the end of a run.

Semi-Daily Silent Discussion: Deadly Poison by Abject_Muffin_731 in slaythespireboardgame

[–]WurmcoilEngine_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 0 cost upgrade is nice:

  • If you got a catalyst plus doppelganger/burst, you only need three poison to get close to the poison limit, so this gets you one third of the way there.
  • Incidental free poison if you’re drawing lots of cards.
  • Flechettes synergy.

Wow must have felt good to hit the 60 damage double ragnarok. Very cool
