TOTAL ROBOTO DEATH

Who's your most hated normal enemy / elite / act boss and why?
>>
>>734893532
Hunter Killer
Beenigger
Knowledge Demon
Notice how these all come from Act 2? We can't get an alternate act soon enough.

what's your highest win streak in sts2?

The fucking eels in act 1 are way too overtuned for an early game elite.

When they submerge to defend themselves after taking damage, they should lose strength.

ok my bad i forgor that it's an event relic
point stands a lot of relics got nerfed (thread&needle -> gorget, sundial -> pendulum, calipers -> sturdy clamp), and then a lot of low-impact relics got added (festive popper, book of five rings, tiny mailbox)

How do I get good? I'm still trying to climb ascension 1. I only put 40 hours in the first game but I remember it being way easier. My most played is Necrobinder, I'm taking the soul cards but always missing one combo piece or have to take crap I don't want because haunt isn't showing up.

crash course
at the start of the act, look for a path that lets you get elites after the mid-act chest (you will be more powerful and they will replace a hard-pool fight). Hopefully you can get at least 2, look for paths with rest sites and a late shop. In the first half of the act, try to get 3 fights and an elite. Prioritize rest sites before/after the elite, and an early shop is good to buy a potion for the elite

draft trash damage for the first 3 floors (just get attacks with the biggest number on them), then look for a premium block card and osty nonsense. Grab something that will help you beat the act boss (multi-hits for the ink demon, block for the waterfall, etc.) Use potions if they will save you 12+ hp, but be stingy with them if you're going to need them for the boss fight.

In act 2 when you draft cards only add them to your deck if they actually improve it. By now you shouldn't be playing your strikes/defends as much any more so it's not a priority to add cards. Look for acceleration cards that draw more cards or add more energy. At this point runs are too varied to give general advice, so good luck have fun

t. 1100+ hr A20H player in StS1
>>
>>734894292
don't go into a run with your build in mind, but have what you're trying to build settled before act 1 is done. each stage is about managing attrition. this game initially does feel harder than 1 because enemies shit damage faster and more consistently than in 1, but your cards are ultimately more powerful. more cards makes it feel like builds are harder because it's harder to find specific cards, but realize that each build simply has more options.
>>
>>734894292
Not sure why STS2 isn't clicking for you if you've got 40 hours of STS1, they're still very similar games. That being said, based on the limited info you've given, the #1 piece of advice I can give you is to stop building with archetypes in mind before you start your run. I recently did a Necro build and I also wanted to do a soul build, but I was offered only 2 soul generating cards throughout my entire run. I quickly realized that I needed to pivot or I'd be worthless (it was a multiplayer A0 run so the chances of us losing/dying were miniscule). Certainly don't base your entire run off of whether or not you get 1 specific card; it could show up in the next shop or it could never show up that run at all. You need to adopt a next man up strategy when picking cards; pick the best one for the job right now, not even for the future. There's about 1 billion STS runs that have died in infancy with people holding on to demon form, just waiting for the right cards to combo with it, and they never came and they just lose. Take cards that you need to win now with. Get a lot of block and AOE on act 1, if you've got a strong deck, fight elites for relics, and don't cast your lot with a good card within a shit deck.
>>
>>734894109
Regent is find child of stars and win game. It's analogous to watcher ttth playstyle because now all your star cost attacks also have block value.

Use self damage builds
The reason he's annoying to use is that they took out most of his good block. Power through is gone which makes second wind also much shittier. So is entrench (nerf to barricade)
Strength builds are worse because no reaper. Disarm is also gone
I like crimson mantle and colossus at least but they're rare cards

Yeah. It'll open it in steam, and then steam will join the game.

Also as an aside if we hit 3 I'll wait 5 minutes for a fourth before hitting go

>>
>>734895402
I quite literally have no clue how you're supposed to win a run that gets like this. I had a run a while ago where I got two block cards on floors 1 and 3 (the point in the run where you try and pick damage to get your fighting prowess up) and nothing after that. With just 4 defends even if you beat act 1 you're going to get spooked by 21 damage constantly on most fights on act 2 and get fucking killed.
Rewardmaxxing and shopmaxxing and finding NO BLOCK gets me like: well, I suppose it's time to get fucked.
Are you supposed to facetank act 1 elites when you don't have proper block hoping defensive relics or try to minimize damage as much as possible to get as far as possible to hope for a decent block engine? Because no, I'm not playing a run where I take 2 block cards as my first two card rewards "in case I don't see any more", that's just retarded.

This, I won't say where but I frequented an extremely niche general thread on a smaller board. There were probably fewer than a dozen regular posters, with a handful of infrequent visitors, a few ne ones coming and going now and then. One schizo took umbrage with another and committed himself to constantly shitposting and samefagging the thread every single day for over a year. He'd respond to every post critical of himself as if he were different people, with the same unchanged methods for the entire time period. Initially it was fun to argue with him because everyone hated him and he was visibly disabled, but I realized eventually that giving him attention didn't make me happier and sustained him. Then I was motivated by some spiteful purpose of not surrendering the thread to him, and I eventually had to ask, what do I gain from this? He won in the end and the thread that he hated so much is gone for good, but he's surely doing the same thing somewhere else now. I can't imagine such an existence. It'd be trivially easy for him to be banned, but that's not in the interest of rapeape.

This place is one part corpse and one part asylum.

>>734898232
Iteration also exists, and Subroutine helps you actually play your powers. Also, Storm+ got changed from
>Innate
to
>channel 2 lightning orbs
which IMO is way stronger, ESPECIALLY with Voltaic, which loses Exhaust when upgraded. Some of the new relics also work really well for Defect, e.g. History Course + Voltaic or Crossbow + Feral
>>
>>734898648
The scarcity mentality from sts1 where you're scraping around for any sort of scaling was a consequence of heart specifically, and maybe the a20 double boss. Without a superboss currently available you can indeed skip out on elites instead of desperately charging into them hoping to make your character stronger.

I hope that the elites are tweaked and rebalanced well by the time Architect releases, because I guarantee we'll be grinding through elites to beat him.
>>
>>734898648
Fair enough. Still the red path has an easy pivot around the elite if I'm still weak. It's pretty important not to lock yourself to one path in this game

Statue gives you 2 turns then attacks for 20ish, that's basically nob, except nob prevents you from blocking and also hits you for 8 turn 2 instead of 0
lagavulin doesn't really have an equivalent in this game, but the bird is probably easier due to his relatively low scaling and low hp

sentries are usually more difficult than the parasite because they flood your deck with dogshit much faster and demand that you kill one sentry turn 2 usually while being attacked
the phrog just wants your to kill him in 3 turns so your deck doesn't get flooded with parasites. once you do that it's just a matter of whittling them down. I often don't take much damage against it assuming my deck isn't awful.

It's like 8 damage/turn before he starts summoning. If your damage gets kneecapped due to the 1 skill debuff, if you go no defense you'll be averaging 15-20+ damage inflicted per turn. The question is, should a normal mob be a guaranteed drain of 24 to 40+ hp if you get unfornunate enough to meet it? Some act 1 elites are easier than this even without perfect card pulls.

The opportunity incentive of elites is honestly really well balanced here. Like the only reason we're arguing is because they're a real choice to begin with.

The actual problem with elites I think is that they're probably the most egregious part of the game with regards to how heavily biased they are towards damage racing builds. Basically the only strategy early game is to draft for raw damage.

It depends if you're in overgrowth or underdocks
In underdocks elites can be beaten if your block is good enough even if your damage sucks. For example fasten (the power that defend block for 10 instead of 5) will be enough to beat every elite nearly on its own
Damage racing was more egregious in spire 1 because of gremlin nob specifically, since you weren't allowed to play skills. And arguably it made the game better because it forced you to add garbage attacks to your deck early on, which prevented you from easily forcing infinites or 10 card decks unlike in this game.

Depends. Do you want to take the potential hp loss for the higher rare card chance and maybe a decent relic? New players make the mistake of avoiding them too much, and then end up with a deck that struggles in act 3 because they didn't take early risks

I feel star generation, draw power, and stalling is probably the easiest way to play him. One of my favorite cards to get on him is prophesize to empty my draw pile quickly for an answer like radiate or particle wall. This starts to get silly with cards like alignment, glow monologue, terraform. Just aim to cheat out energy and stall for stars if you have something like reflect or bug aoe star cards early game then try to get alignment with heavenly drill or star dust and monologue for late game

I can tolerate RNG to an extent, but there is one thing that fucking INFURIATES me about this game:
>enemy has a turn where they're completely defenseless and aren't dealing any damage
>draw 4 blocks and 1 attack
>act 1 normal encounter has a turn where 2 enemies are going to deal a combined 30 damage
>draw 4 attacks and 1 block
It's just so fucking gay
>>
>Take random rare as defect
>Meteor Strike
Why is this abysmal dogshit still in the game when it's even harder to get extra energy than the first game?

reduce the energy/star tax on all his good cards

go upgrade your dualcast and grab another plasma card, problem solved

Forge is awkward because it'd probably become too strong really quickly if it got buffed much. The mechanic is very feast or famine right now and on multiple fronts. It's very bad as a primary scalar against certain enemies, very good against others which makes it inconsistent compared to say, scaling Radiant which is consistent across the game. It has multiple scalars on high rarity and even on lower rarity it's pretty inconsistent to try and force it, but it also doesn't play great with neutral regent or star regent. Making individual low rarity forge cards better is weird though because you'd be able to take them safely in the early game then generate a damage nuke that you can hold alongside them, making them shitty checks regent's early game which is totally reasonable since he already scales well.

Simple as

>>734909591
package it with good effects, as it is now effects like forge 10 is just fucking awful when photon slice does that damage and draws with set up. Or just remove the initial damage for blade and make it 1 energy
>>
>>734909591
I'd say it just needs some number tweaks. The idea is that you keep building a bigger and bigger sword which is basically damage in the bag. But the opportunity cost isn't really worth it currently.
>>
>>734909591
never go all in on forge, its fine with 1 or 2 good forge cards. currently forge is fucked up because there are a lot of forge cards that aren't any good but don't do anything for other decks to build with so you just get bulwark or the smith or something and slap it into another deck.

Wasn't really a complaint about RNG, I was just jumpscared by this piece of shit still being in the game.

I think every anime girl regent I've seen has agreed with her having twin tails and a little girl body. I've never seen like, titty queen milf regent.

Am I expected to just be able to block 40+ at any given turn? It feels like all luck if you're trying to balance a build between block and attack. Unless I have some great synergy with relics, I feel like it's pointless.

>BRO JUST GET THE CARDS
ok
>>
>>734909508
That does happen to popular games too, tbf. There's that Elden Ring dude who's been posting the same input reading webms since the game came out.

I really don't know what drives some people to be like this. It seems like it'd get boring.

>>734910234
hate this faggot as a doom build. Three completely separate health bars and no doom buildup on multiple hundreds point of points. Fuck him.
>>
>>734909707
its only really bad on the silent since they have an extra strike and defend + 2 defensive starter cards. you just gotta go for attacks and aim to cut out cards with shops.
>>
>>734910196
That's because Regent is the haughty prince type, so the girl version would definitely just be a bratty princess
>>
>>734910234
>Am I expected to just be able to block 40+
Yes. If you can't you haven't invested in defensive cards enough.

Look on the bright side. Doom goes through ethereal.
I had to fucking kill him last night on a Stardust build and it was fucking hell.

Just looking at the size of your deck and your buffs your deck is 100% total antisynergy slop

You made this tough on yourself

It's mental illness. Even if it was just trolling you'd have to be screwed in the head in some way to be that obsessive about it.

I understand now seeing these two posts together. Regent actually does feel incredibly wrong as a grown woman compared to the little girl arts.

Skipping cards feels much more punishing in 2 than in 1. You can also go so far. I came across almost no Sly rewards. I got great stuff for Shivs and 0 cost, got almost none. I did get Mummified Hand and a ton of Powers, so that's what I did. I wouldn't have gotten without them.

I'm actually familiar with this specific schizo, I think he's different from the original one. tl;dr the WebM's MD5 signature suggests that it was saved something like 3-4 months ago, and from that point forward he started obsessively reposting it every single day. If I recall correctly, this recent bout of
>input_reading.webm
posting began after someone posted it in an "OUT-FUCKING SKILLED" WebM thread that had nothing to do with Elden Ring specifically, and then the schizo started making his own OUT-FUCKING SKILLED threads that were just an excuse to dump his growing collection of anti-Elden Ring WebMs, but always that one.

In more positive news, that one Dark Souls 2 WebM spammer (some people call him DS2fag) seems to have fucked off recently.

What you will do with upgraded Sovereign Blade? It costs 1 mana if upgraded

I finally got the architect for the first time. Silent, serpent form with high draw, discard, and lots and lots of shiv spam. Also had a cheeky Murder in my deck and since 1 turn could see me cycle through my entire deck twice, was easy to stack it up.
