I got cloak clasp from large capsule and then a juggernaut from a transform on floor 5 and toric toughness right afte. Fun run. I didn't even get barricade until like floor 40. Headbutt to replay toric toughness often was doing silly damage with juggernaut. The damage from cloak clasp/juggernaut was huge early and made it easy to snowball.
>>
>>736620101
obviously I upgraded toric toughness immediately but it got downgraded by that stupid event on one of my last floors that upgrades 4 and downgrades 2. The other downgrade was armaments. That event always just upgrades my leftover strikes or defends and fucks me over it's annoying.

The thing about Forge is that it's almost mandatory to have a good star engine to carry it and at that point stars just rape everyone. Considering you only have two energy per turn, how are you even scaling your sword? The best sword cards are Bulwark (costs 2 energy) and The Smith (costs stars). If you're not playing stars, just playing Bulwark is incredibly slow and an awful way to scale. You need a good star deck to speed your Forging up otherwise the game eats you alive.
I only tend to go for Forge builds if I get an early bulwark that I can draft around and that carries me while I get the rest of my deck working.
If Bulwark comes too late then it's a pass.

The 3 stone armors was excessive but the relic snowball was insane so I do what I want. I maintain that 1 stone armor early is actually good and 2 works if you can justify it with card draw or another source of plating.
>>
>>736622434
The blade just needs to go down to 1 energy st base and 0 upgraded and it's fine. Even with that card that Forges 3(5) and doubles the blade damage for a turn you're only doing 26 damage for 3 energy. Or that one that recalls your blade, with 1 cost you could use the blade, recall it, amd then play it again for 3 energy.
>>

>I do what I want.
>a3 pre-beta
I'm sure you do
>>
>>736622810
I remember getting a Stone Armor+ with replay picking the glow relic once and 12 plating is a lot actually. It's better if it only takes one card obviously but yeah. I agree that Stone Armor has an argument for 4(6) plating being more worth it in this game than 3(4) metalizice was on sts1, even if metallizice does not degrade over time.

Bulwark and reflect are both great chunky block cards. Bulwawrk gives you good block while also building forge as an extra benefit.
Star builds are very strong if you get things like black hole or royal gamble and a way to spend that energy. His relic upgrade is insanely good, lets you play royal gamble from your opening hand and erases one of his biggest weaknesses, which is that you are incredibly draw dependent hoping you get star gen before you get star-costed cards.

He has really shitty scaling is the problem. Strength lost limit break and spot weakness, so you have Demon Form in a game where 3 energy at the final boss is the norm not the exception and some meme tier vuln based strength scaling card that always top decks next to molten fist while all your vuln inflictors are at the bottom of the draw pile. Inflame is pretty much the only reliable strength scaling card. On top of that no heavy blade. Vuln doesn't scale outside of its initial application except for a minor bump with cruelty unless you have Bully. Cruelty should honestly be reworked to increase % damage based on stacks of vuln.

>>736626835
Basically take as many copies as possible of Bulwark, Child of Stars, Reflect, and Convergence in every deck. Take a copy of Astral Pulse to carry your early damage. Reworked Glow isn't awful if you're starving for stars. Be picky about taking cards. I take one copy of Begone! in most decks to thin draw pile.
Celestial Might isn't an awful take if you're starving for damage.

>>736627903
Demon form is pretty shit. Costs too much energy for what it does and cheaper 1 cost uncommons do it better. Would be nice if dominate got retain on upgrade rather than just one extra vulnerable.

Learn which cards you're able to work well with, learn which cards you're good to get rid of, find a good balance of number of cards, take calculated gambles. If you have friends who like board games you can also go practice with them using physical deckbuilder games to get the right mindsets built up.

>Hey, I hope he gets buffed
he will, everyone from a1 player to a10 streamers complain about Clad state.
>>736627903
his problems are to name a few
1. has weakest starting deck
2. burning blood and self damage was balanced around sts enemy damage output and REAPER
3. all his good defensive options are RARE, making surviving act 1 on a9-10 a nightmare
4. has weak scaling cards
If they want to keep his early defensive options low they MUST buff burning blood and his offense. And yeah, cruelty and Demon form have to be changed, especially Demon Form, it should actually be on power level of other forms not something you skip because it's so dogshit

>>736629196
With Ironclad I tend to go either strength maxxing and kill single target strong enemies quick or go defense focused and take my time. With Silent I tend toward spamming shivs while including a bit of poison sometimes. With Necrobinder I either doommaxx or build Osty up hard. With Regent I tend to prefer the star build since I tend to have good luck with it and can shit out damage and block left and right the whole time. With Defect I get thru the statue specifically by using the turns it takes for his set up to set up myself well with powers and/or orbs.

The fact that the numbers on inflame and demon form havent changed despite limit rbeak no longer being in the game is kinda dumb. I would assume the stregnth values in the frist game were balanced around the fact that you could double it and scale healing off of it. The fact that reaper and limit break are gone means the class needs better strength pay off or they just need to make the strength cards give you more strength

>fourth energy much harder to come by
Don't know if it's just me but despite having access to Bloodletting (one of the greatest cards in the whole game) no fourth energy relic kind of shits on ironclad hard and maybe the hardest in the whole cast (silent just does whatever the fuck she wants, necro can cheat energy like a madwoman, regent cares about stars and defect just shits energy as well as having a trillion good 0 cost cards).
One of his best cards to see act 1 that you were almost ectasic to find on StS1 (and that pulled its weight on Act 2) was... uppercut. Weak + Vuln + decent damage and when you got your other energy relic you could play Uppercut+ and something else for quite decent turns. Now uppercut eats 2/3rds of your turn and it feels kind of shit to play.
It's even more ass in this game because unless I'm missing something uppercut is literally his only source of weak, now that they raped shockave out of his kit (ignore clothesline please, that shit was ass)

>>736629528
Which cards specifically? Yeah, getting strength stacking on ironclad is great, but you aren't going to have your massive dominate in play and deal damage by turn 3, and there's now way you can consistently out block 26 damage each turn in act 1. Having a blade dance can make quick work of the statue, but I don't think much else works well against the statue. I don't think Regent can do much either unless he gets a weak stack down for the turn it starts attacking with falling star or know thy place. Defect, well defect was made to beat the statue with all his zero costs and frost orbs.
>>
>>736629661
Get a source of +2 dex and its suddenly a great card

Okay. I'm going to admit something. I'm going to bare my very soul to you. I have been one of the foremost snakebite HATERS in this thread since day 0. I have argued VEHEMENTLY against this card. But after this run... I don't - I can't stop myself. My legs, my knees, they're moving on their own...

Snakechads, I was cruel to you. I was capricious and combative. I didn't listen, I refused to listen. I hope - I pray, that you will find it among the wealth of compassion in your hearts, snakebros, and within the wisdom in your minds, snakefriends, to accept me among you, born anew and baptised in venom, to walk among you as a snakeChad.

My legs are straining. My knees are bending. I cannot stop it. I kneel, snakeGODS.

I'm pretty sure your ass was bleeding when you got the snake offered early on the run and you had no other choice but to pick it to beat lagavulin, but as the act progressed you saw THE LIGHT and understood the power of holding the card until you can shoot it.

Thank you anons, I seem to be more into the stars. The problem with the blade is that it is never there when I need it, especialy against the crab boss.
The stars are more to my liking especially with reflect and spamming the power that deals static damage whenever I use/gain a star.
I basically just deal indirect damage. I'll see how it holds up. Also his upgraded relic is insanely good, he seems nerfed without it.
Maybe I'll give forge another try

This game is so fun bros, I must admit I was saved by being given Break and Maul as ancient rewards though, they gave me all the scaling I needed.

Honestly it was a mistake to take barricade as act 2 boss reward, I should have taken colossus instead, barricade is too much trouble to play in this game, they really need to do something with barricade and juggernaut cause they're useless right now

Barricade was pretty difficult to play on StS1 already, here with no guaranteed 4th energy it's almost impossible. Also no entrench outside randomly getting it on the dumpster event. No power through + second wind. Shit sucks.

I can't believe this game made Velvet choker actually pickable, I wish I could find more sources of energy as Ironclad, I had a great run yesterday with Sozu, being able to play double tapped bludgeons while never worrying about potions again was comfy.

If I may ask, what was the gist of what you said? I agree he's kinda underpowered and I usually like to play lowtiers because that way if I win I feel better and if I lose I just blame bad balance.

To me it just feels like Ironclad has inconsistent access to good block and not good enough healing options to make up for the amount of self damage he takes.

It seems quite stupid to me that breakthrough upgraded deals 13 damage to all enemies for 1 energy and 1 hp, whilst hemokinesis, an uncommon, deals 20 damage and costs 2 hp, blood wall's 2hp cost seems less egregious to me but that could just be because I only use it in moments where not having that amount of block would have been worse.

Also lmao having a self damage build that also uses offering you can have the most perfect deck but you're gonna be resting every 3 fights.

Forge is seriously hampered by the fact that you are forced to build around a card that will always cost 2 energy. Even if Regent has some of the best energy and cost reduction with stuff like Void Form, it just isn't enough.

Demon Form is literally only useable with Jeweled Mask, and you still need to minimize the number of Powers in your deck for it to hit the 0-cost turn 1 lottery. It can be very powerful this way. Had a run with this and Unmoveable as my only Powers. It was absurdly strong.

Something funny like that happened to me in my recent run on Necrobinder. I started the run with Lethality (the power) and then found an artifact that would upgrade any powers added to my deck automatically, which sucked because I couldn't spare a rest to upgrade Lethality. Then I fought the thief bug in Act 2 and he stole my lethality, which I wasn't that bummed about since it wound up not being core to my deck anyway, but then when I stole it back, it got upgraded by the relic.

act 1 is same-y for all the characters. (early on) grab cards that are strong right away and on their own. and start to think about when to break this rule when you get a feel for the deck

overestimated the abilities of finisher, it really underperformed in the kaiser crab fight but it was enough to get me through. signet ring and fur coat was offered against glitter, was really worried for act 3 bosses and all of the shops were late, chose glitter and was rewarded with accuracy w/ glam. was liberal with potions against test subject because i wanted to preserve as much hp into doormaker. phantom blades helping tremendously with the micro vs doormaker, the plan was to use energy to block or wail during the exhaust turn, burst blur and shiv cards, hold shivs for the energy down turn and unload, rinse repeat. would've been hard on three energy but bought an automation at the shop and it helped bigly. finisher is probably something that can't be relied on for doormaker

The funny thing is that I actually had decent card draw and block despite never seeing a single copy of something like battle trance, card draw on vulnerable, etc. A copy of pillage and two copies of pommel strike+, some blood wall+, some rage+ and the game just decided that I should take exactly the 45 damage worth of cock needed to kill me as soon as phase 3 of test subject started.

A 2nd vuln source and some multipliers (whichever you can find) is plenty for damage even without the absolute best forge stacking cards
that 1 mana forge 10/15 is fine, if not great.
The more important thing is tutors. 2 blades per shuffle is a big deal especially against wider encounters, and being able to grab a weak+vuln or a big shield card helps a lot with consistency

Negrobinder is like the nega-Silent. Silent has so many common and uncommon cards that are immediately strong for fighting act 1 elites. She can AoE (kills phrog parasite and four eels), easily play 5+ cards a turn (kills statue), and inflict weak AND strength down with high value, low cost cards (kills bird, coral man, and terror eel). The second you pick a copy of piercing wail and dagger spray, you should be instantly pathing into elites if you're relatively healthy. Silent just snowballs off of act 1 and then figures out scaling in 2 and 3.

Meanwhile, Negrobinder has to pray for 2+ good cards that actually work well together before being allowed to path into elites. If you pick up reap and defy, you're probably fine to fight phrog parasite, but fighting the stature or bird could very easily get ugly.

I've lost every sword build but won every single dust focused build
I want to make the sword work but there's infinitely more utility to a stardust and neutral card builds

I've used a potion that "plays the card again" and it only hit 3 times on the first play and zero on the second
it's inconsistent as fuck

Silent A10: Complete. Snakebite rules.
Necro's A10 is going to be a pain. Most of her cards feel so weak.

a lot of the forge stuff is good you just need more than just cards that say forge on them
regent has access to basically everything, you gotta build that stuff around your sword, things that say weak/vuln, things that block, draw, energy gain, aoe, etc

>New event idea
You loot a bandit camp and steal gold and a relic, but the bandits start chasing you, starting a number of spaces back on the map from where you came. A status card is put in your deck that costs energy and exhausts. If it's still in your deck at the end of combat, the bandits move one space closer. If they reach you, you have to fight them. Leaving the current act escapes them and the status card leaves your deck.

Well? :3c
>>
>>736655963
Would be cool, we need more interesting events that persist, write a suggestion
>>
>>736655907
Not him but there's inconsistency. History Course used to copy the X you paid last turn for the card it copies, but now it goes off your current energy when it copies. So if you cast Dirge for 8, at the start of next turn it'll copy Dirge but only for your current energy of lets say 3.

That's not inconsistency that's a different game
>>
>>736655907
There’s a lot of inconsistent writing. “Vulnerable enemies take 50% more damage” is NOT what that card does and works differently than other cards that say “enemy takes double damage”
>>
>>736655852
Protect osty and then unleash, then take more osty and souls cards, doom sucks ass except mass doom that kills big groups or that one card that just puts a boss on a clock
>>
>>736655852
Oh yeah, take "weak" cards and that one card that doubles the effect of weak
>>
>>736656085
Damn you’re fast, good job, add 3x5 damage symbol to it

>>736656124
I like Negative Pulse. Goes great with Shroud and Sleight of Flesh.

Damn, I was so close. Two maybe three more turns and I would have had it.
I was a little amazed that I even made it to the end boss this run. This mess managed to be stronger than I thought it would be.
>>
>>736656101
50% is not double
>>
>>736656360
Not the point, it doesn’t work by same rules, enemies don’t take 50% more damage because it’s not actually multiplicative effect unlike those that say deal double damage

Are the ascensions harder than the previous since we only have 10 now or are we getting the last 10 later?
>>
>>736657240
yeah they scale in difficulty much faster.
>>
I’m on asc 7, few more runs and I’ll get to 10 with Clad, heard that everything I learned goes out of window on asc 9 because bullshit damage increase on all enemies
>>
>>736657726
yes

That explains why I'm getting rocked at a prevously easy asc level.

and

any host?
>>
>>736660797
Deal 4 damage 3 times scales better with strength but enemies with thorn will fuck you up

damn had an exhaust/pommel run that felt good on every fight but got eaten by le hungry worm cause no scaling

Finally beat my first A10 on a character. Created the most absolutely busted Regent deck. Had a music box with Bombardment and a retained particle wall. It didn't matter what I drew.
>>
>>736660797
Deal 12 damage suffers less from str debuffs (laga, that one advanced hallway in act 2 or 3) and weaken, benefits more from vuln. Better for the bee man.
>>
>>736661007
Actually the vuln thing isn't true in this case, but can be depending on the numbers.
