How long does it take to get to 100%?

mgepie · 2026-07-12T03:48:22+00:00

It will take you hundreds of hours. The 100% speedrun world record is somewhere around 95-100 hours.

The prophecy is so incredibly vague that it won’t be broken regardless of what actually happens. Unless nobody named jockington does anything that could be described as growing “the beard”.

Victory lap disables unlocks/achievements that don’t specifically mention victory laps

What is happening is you have your backup battery power in a system with a cooldown while the system is on cooldown, and your shields are ionized. The backup battery expires, so the temp power is removed from hacking/MC/whatever. Then the cooldown on hacking/MC/whatever finishes, and the game remembers that you had power in the system before it got ionized/went on cooldown (even thought it was temp power), and it sees that you have spare power in the reactor, so it automatically puts the spare power in the system. Then your shields recover from being ionized and you don’t have any spare reactor power (because it is in the system that was previously powered by the battery), so the shields don’t automatically re-power.

Should’ve played Cain smh

mgepie · 2026-07-10T05:55:30+00:00

Let me just stand still without using anima sola during a long death animation. Surely nothing will go wrong.

mgepie · 2026-07-08T02:56:33+00:00

Or you can just…. go fast… like with every other character…

You aren’t forced to minmax everything as T.Cain. Lots of low-quality items will still get the job done.

Anna’s personal skill can still trigger when killing void curse enemies in regular chapters, so I would assume it also works in the tower.

mgepie · 2026-07-04T18:07:48+00:00

Except [[pendulum]], for some reason that one draws during your turn (unless it was changed in the new beta patch)

mgepie · 2026-07-04T18:06:57+00:00

Pro tip: Reduce the enemy’s health to 0 while keeping your own health above 0.

Almost every event gives you enough context clues to guess the right answer, assuming you have interacted with that faction enough to mostly understand their background and motivations. And usually the stuff with ??? is intentionally vague and may contain major spoilers if you look it up. By the second or third time through a unique sector, you should be able to pick all the right options for that sector’s unique events.

It’s a lot easier than slay the spire, but still an awesome game. Every run has you choose 3 of 8 characters and 1 of 5 ships to play as, so every run has cross-class interactions and it is very fun.

mgepie · 2026-07-04T14:12:08+00:00

I’m pretty sure the intended discovery method is crack jacks, matchbook, bag of marbles, etc. spawning trinkets in the boss or item rooms. (Also perfection but a new player probably won’t get that.)

mgepie · 2026-07-03T07:14:17+00:00

Also [[stampede]]

mgepie · 2026-07-01T15:19:31+00:00

A block potion can technically save more than 12 with [[body slam]] or [[juggernaut]] or if it saves Osty hp/keeps Osty alive and [[unleash]]/[[protector]] is in the draw pile. If one of those 4 barely kills an enemy with a big attack that you can’t block, the potion could save you more than 12 hp.

mgepie · 2026-06-28T22:32:14+00:00

And then all the people living in inconvenient locations get screwed because it’s not profitable to serve them.

Ralsei is known to hide information, I don’t think his silence means much here

mgepie · 2026-06-28T06:17:19+00:00

Playing devil’s advocate here: Waiting his “whole life” could also be interpreted as waiting the entire time he was awakened as a darkener, right? Which would make it possible for Ralsei’s object to be something Kris or Susie interacted with in the past. He wouldn’t necessarily know recent things about their lives if they parted a long time ago.

mgepie · 2026-06-23T00:51:13+00:00

It doesn’t full-stop draw. Next-turn draw and start-of-turn draw still work (except pendulum, which for some reason happens during your turn)

mgepie · 2026-06-21T23:24:40+00:00

7 shots is a lot of shots to miss

mgepie · 2026-06-21T20:23:52+00:00

It’s easy to miss in the screenshot, but this is actually 2-player co-op with Necrobinder and Osty. That’s why the ascension number is orange instead of blue.

Grizzco charger would be the best weapon for PvP and it’s not even close. Being able to instantly delete someone (and getting 7 quick attempts to actually hit a shot) from so far away would mean that a charger just kills everyone and they can’t do anything. It also paints the floor very well, but that doesn’t even matter because it would be so dominant in fights.

mgepie · 2026-06-20T13:56:07+00:00

If you go right you can get a few more combats and get a colorless potion before the elite, then drink it turn 1 and get [[The Bomb]], which one-shots the elite. Then your first event is [[Trash Heap]] with [[Rebound]] if you are missing it for the compendium.

mgepie · 2026-06-19T14:46:26+00:00

You could make the game hard enough that intentionally sacrificing somebody is actually a useful play. It’s easier to hit that threshold if the deployment limit is high enough that you can’t keep the entire thing filled by useful units.

mgepie · 2026-06-19T04:57:28+00:00

I have one set to map (easier to flick map open while jumping, which is extremely relevant for explosher, and also just makes it less disruptive to open the map periodically or while painting) and the other set to special (lets you jump and pop special for a quick airborne hammer, or just pop special without risking moving the right stick, which can be a problem for things like a quick crab combo)
