Creates a random Spectral card when Blind is defeated.
(Can only appear once Mr. Bones has prevented death.)

What do you all think?

#

Ooh this is interesting

#

I can't tell if it's balanced or not but I like the concept a lot

rare talon
#

More experienced Jimbo Fan Club members could probably tell if this is balanced.

fallow quiver
#

Yeah exactly

pallid cosmos
#

Its too good but the showing up is nice

#

So that sorta evens it out

fallow quiver
#

Yeah, I mean you have to get a specific Uncommon and another specific Uncommon

pallid cosmos
#

Exactly

rare talon
#

I thought of this as being the Uncommon equivalent of the gros_michel/Cavendish relationship.
I like it a lot.

pallid cosmos
#

I mean the other spectral makers have a cost

#

And intentionally losing q blind is sorta a neat cost

#

And the name works very well

#

As it is just better cardomancer

#

Its a play on that

#

But also the undead like with Mr bones

sharp moat
#

Should be rare tbh

#

This is rlly op

Also, Cavendish is common with a really good effect and it works fine. The fact that you need to get another joker and kill it before you are able to get this joker balances its powerful effect out.

What does grabber mean

pallid cosmos

#

But high is 1 card

#

Without the Bones clause this is incredibly OP and with the bones clause this is near impossible to get.
Its a great concept but I don't think that it would work in the game

dusty forum
#

But you do have to get 2 Mr. Bones in 1 run

#

And you can't get multiple bones. Unless you have showmen

violet matrix
pallid cosmos
#

yeah why 2

dusty forum
#

Because of it works like Cavendish you have to spawn bones kill it, and then get another one

#

Because then this would spawn instead

#

At least 2

#

What are the chances of common VS uncommon

violet matrix
#

And theres more uncommons than commons

dusty forum
#

It's 64% VS 2.25% chance

#

Not very good

violet matrix
#

Yea

dusty forum
#

That half of the rare chance

violet matrix
#

0,390625%
Thats the probability of a specific uncommon joker spawning

rare talon
#

Is it worth it for two or three free spectral card per ante?

dusty forum
#

So a really bad chance

rare talon
#

Well, sure, but again. Free spectral cards for the rest of the run once you have it.

#

All you have to do is strategically lose a blind.

dusty forum
#

Oops

#

A 0.15% is still. Less than a legendary joker

rare talon
#

If it's something useful like Trance, Talisman, Aura, Cryptid, etc, good. If not, well, then, hey, free money from selling it.
No matter how you look at it, getting this joker is still worth it.

dusty forum
#

My math was right. I'm an idiot

dusty forum
#

Than 2 legendaries

rare talon
#

I mean, the only real problem is in getting it.

dusty forum
#

Yeah

#

That's a big problem

#

It's the same for legendaries

rare talon
#

I didn't want Necromancer to be legendary, though. I mean, unless I change the theming to like
Vecna or something (Vecna being an iconic D&D villain)
I just don't see it as being legendary.
It would also be the only legendary that

  • Appears in the shop naturally
  • Can't be gained from using the Soul card
    And that just doesn't make any sense to me.
dusty forum
#

Good idea but the chance is too low

dusty forum
#

Well I said better

#

But equal works

#

@violet matrix are you asleep

rare talon
dusty forum
#

A legendary that gives 3x is really bad

#

That's a rare

#

Like literally driver's license

rare talon
#

I mean, I didn't want something that would just be Mr. Bones but it doesn't self-destruct, you know? And we don't have a spectral card printer like this yet.

violet matrix
#

Necromancer is too weak to be a legendary but too powerful to be a normal joker

rare talon
#

So where does that put it, then?

dusty forum
#

Cavendish is a 1.7% chance

dusty forum
#

That breaks the gros_michel/Cavendish but uncommon point

silent lagoon
#

That feels pretty limiting though

#

You could just have this be a Rare Joker. This feels like a Rare

dusty forum
#

0,512295081967212% chance is a bit more than a legendary

#

So. Still really difficult

#

Cavendish and Cartomancer if they had a kid
