The biggest problem with both spire games is the speed with which you have to get everything running or you just lose like 40 HP. Oh you didn't draw exactly what you needed by turn 2? Guess you lose.Oh you drew exactly what you needed by turn 2? Guess you win.

>>739999021SAD, I never could burst with Flanking and didn’t get any shiv support
>>740000921Game also had fucking glass instead of Queen. I had 3 wails so she’d deal no damage

>>739996415Leafy Poultice (Upon pickup, Transform 1 of your Strikes and 1 of your Defends and lose 12 Max HP. )>Received Arsenal (Whenever you create a card, gain 1 Strength.)>Received Crash Landing (Deal 21 damage to ALL enemies.Fill your Hand with Debris.) That's 7-9 Strength.And I still managed to die because I misplayed. Had my back turned like an idiot in the claw fight and took the rocket punch. It hurts so much bro. I finally had 2 Celestial Might.This is the seed by the way in case anyone was interested: HSRP47Y75N
>>740002643oh and at another point, you get offered ANOTHER Crash Landing. You get offered a Tyrant, and there is another Tyrant in the shop. I'm sure that someone more clever than me can clear this run easy.

By the time the worm bros come out if you didn't have the aoe or raw damage output you're cooked anyway.The real runender is this guy. He's the first act, he can be your first elite room 3 while you're still chilling with your strikes and defends. Hope you're not playing a low health chracter, here's 25 damage :)
I'm not reading patch notes but it feels like defect is shit now

>>740002115he/it, meanwhile those four are whooooooooooores
>beat act>beat boss>see ancient options>abandonWhy are they so shit and underwhelming compared to boss relics?
>>740008110many of them are fun since they change how you play and not just...gain 1 energy for no potions
>>740008110I think they're much more fun and potentially game changing compared to StS1 boss relics. Those always felt kind of ass since it was often just +1 energy in exchange for disabling a game mechanic.
>>739996415fug that guy
>>739999090I've beaten Ascension 10 Ironclad on single player. The key is persistent block. Try to stack plating and/or Toric Toughness + Headbutt, get Unmovable + Barricade. You can reach the point you are able to entirely block 40 damage attacks and take your time to build up with either Dominate after getting big Vulnerable stacks/Demon Form/Body Slam. If you manage to get the option for Glam or Clone Stone Armor, grab it. Super worth it. Not sure about multi-player Ironclad, my group has only done up to 7. Upgraded Uppercut I'd say is a must, Weak + Vulnerable is great support and it also clears 2 Artifact in one hit. Otherwise if you find Tank + tons of ways to stack armor + stack as many plating potions as you can, you might be able to sponge the final bosses while your teammates are on easy mode.
>>740008794>get Unmovable + Barricadeyeah no, never pick Barricade, what a piece of shit card
>>740008838It's alright if you have Unmovable + lots of plating / Toric Toughness loops, you can stack a crazy amount of block that way. If you don't have Unmovable though then yeah its not good.
>>740008794>get 2 specific raresyou're retarded
>>740008794>Otherwise if you find Tank + tons of ways to stack armor + stack as many plating potions as you can, you might be able to sponge the final bosses while your teammates are on easy mode.Ironclad has one dominating way to play in multiplayer, especially if he has Necro/Silent/Regent for weak debuffs/str down.Full scaling.Stoke, Dominate, Break, Molten Fist, Rupture, Fight Me, Cruelty.Any way you can multiply your damage as high as possible because YOU will be responsible for dealing 1000 damage in next two turns
>>740008838It's good if you see snecko, so like 1 in 2056 chance.
would you still pick conflagration as the end of act 1 boss card reward even with no strength scaling in the deck
>>740009735Do I have other AOE? Is there anything else pickable on the screen?
MY FIRST SILENT A10 WIN WOOOOOOfirst solo A10 win I have aside from ironclad
>>740009837first aoe, up against cascade and feed. no energy in the deck and only draw is shrug it off. for the record I picked conflagration and then cursed bell and ended up with a shuriken so it worked out. just wanted an opinion on conflagration as a card in a vacuum
>>740009459You only grab Barricade if you already have Unmovable, I just listed it as both together can be strong if you find them.>>740009692I usually went for scaling in my multi-player games but haven't gotten to see if that works on higher ascensions. The problem I ran into with scaling builds in single player was that it was often too slow and I would just die. But I can see scaling work on the higher ascensions if your teammates are coordinating to help feed you Vulnerable to multiply with Molten Fist into Dominate
>>740009956I'd probably take cascade over it, it can lead to an insanely broken run, or nosedive spectacularly.
>>740010175someone else playing wail, enfeeble, weak, debilitate gives you more room to add scaling cards. You still need block, but not as much so your deck has more room for something that will pay off in 2-3 turns

first time i won an a10 run without resting
I've been focusing playing Silent lately to see how she is after the coming of nob and aeonglass. My conclusion is that the turtling playstyle is gone, shiv is the best (fun) way to win. Just don't spam them against Aeonglass.

>>740008794>Blocking with Ironclad A10What? WhyMost of my A10 Ironclad wins are Fight Me! and multi-hits, if I take more than two or three block cards the deck gets slowed down too much.
>>740017213retard
>>740018325doormaker had neat mechanics but his damage and health were too low for them to really matter and he ended up being the easiest act 3 boss by far and didn't actually need you to do that much to play around him besides not totally fuck up your micro. current aeonglass is an actual threat and easily the hardest act 3 boss and is shaping the way people are building decks.
>clone Perfected Strike>winAs simple as that
>>739996415Why does every single enemy in the entire game need to get strength buffs? Why does every single enemy in the game need to inflict weak/frail?What fucking creatively-bankrupt retard took over the enemy design between this game and the first?

>>740019030>plus you kill only two and they get revived
>>740019030>>740019438their strength resets when you kill them. if you can't just kill them all in a couple turns with aoe, you're supposed to kill one so that only two are up at a time, you are facing way less damage per turn, and they aren't gaining any strength.

Sts2 rewards can not only be stronger but also rarely have downsides and are just straight up improvements to character power, except for Vaaku which is why he's hated. I also typically hate Darv when I see him, I don't want those gay ass sts1 relics.

>>740023640Enthralled is literally unpickable. Worse than normality, you can't exhaust or discard it from your hand and it bricks your entire turn. You have to snipe it from the draw pile and there are like 2 cards that do this, seance and chaaarge.

>>740040140here's some advice for you pup, bury is pickable if you have snecko since it randomizes the cost but since you're leaning so hard into souls you're scared of the possibility of a 3 cost soul bricking your draw hence why your phenotype would choose forbidden ritual over snecko. maybe grow some balls!
>>740040898I realize that, I would never complain about ascension difficulties because they are made to be progressively more difficult. I'm just referring to base gameplay, I think encounters are just way too overtuned. They come out feeling cheap instead of challenging more often than I felt in the original.
>>740041235>I'll just add a curse to my deck in case I highroll the 50% chance for darv to be added into my pool and then the 25% chance to have him on top of the whatever% chance to roll sneckoyou can't be fucking seriousat least make it believable
>>740040535obviously purity. aeonglass is literally unbeatable if you can't exhaust every wither every turn.

>>740041125>usYou argue in a very feminine way, so no! Unlucky for you.
>>740041919>ad hominemconcession accepted (2)
nothing wrong with being a femboy sissy
>>740041185>>740041370This was the right answerThat was fucking stressfulEven with purity and compact I still ended up with 4 withers a turn and took 91 damage the whole fight
