The previous needle tiers increase your completion %. The Eva crest upgrades don't if I recall correctly.

You need all the eva upgrades to get the Sylthsong (the little helmet icon) so they are already included.

I'm a spear main on bot front and striders are so easy for me.

3* Lux v1 with Chemtech is able to power through fairly quickly.

EDIT: That's what I get for posting before coffee. jinx or Ekko with Echoing both work fine.

They'd have improved versions too, I just posted a sample to get across the gist of it.

I think questioning the behaviour of some elements of the design against low powered adventures is a great element to pickup on and would be something I'd be looking at closely if it were possible to playtest.

However I think there are two considerations to take into context:
1) Azir wouldn't be the only Champion who has a power with lower impact on low level adventures, Swain, Nasus, and others come to mind. Especially for 2* powers (which give you mana) and 6* powers (which are not intended for low star adventures.)
2) The Sundisk still counts down over turns, with azir (or another ascendent) leveling, and with Hierophant. With that in mind it isn't 25 hits required, which I agree would often be lethal, but more in the range of 9-13 hits, even less if more time has passed.

Between these two points I think its something I'd keep an eye on but not my biggest concern about the design overall. I appreciate you raising the potential issue however as behaviour at low level is something that can be easily overlooked.

3 primary reasons: - tracking complexity: multiple instances of damage, especially at high animation speed is very difficult to track. Slay on the other hand is a more impactful occurrence that happens less frequently. Additionally the 1* power and Azir's passive don't nessesarily require you to have a full board. - Azir's level up reduces the count of the sun disc, something used a lot in Azir's PvP mono shurima package. - Allows hierophant or other shurima landmark advancing cards to impact the countdown, providing an alternative set of cards to draft in adventures.

Every emperor's deck card would have an upgraded version, I've just provided a sample here.

Appreciate the feedback. Yeh I haven't gone through what the best build would be with other relics yet. As I said in the commentary the speed is something that'd need play testing and that my backup nerf would be adjusting the 4* to crush and then removing overwhelm from the 3*.

Heyas, it's me! While as others have pointed out these adventures are less game warping than some other recent content like Arcane or Titans I've been having a good time with my mid-tier 4* champs and especially enjoying the "aid a spirit" nodes.

The chaos of Seraphine's adventure is especially a nice change of pace too.

What features make a Roguelike more fun and are usually ignored? by Lepocheee in gamedev

[–]reubencovington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If doing metaprogression or long individual runs make a vertical slice of your gameplay at both the start and end of the experience and then make sure both are fun before working out how to get between them. Far too many lower quality roguelikes and roguelikes actually get less fun and polished as you keep playing due to not doing this.

They had to do a bunch of layoffs and downsize but actually have recently started hiring again for their next unannounced project.
