It would be nice to have a round counter appear to count how many rounds the battle has gone through/lasted. Certain bosses that have cheats have certain spells they cast at say round 3 or 4. Or every 5 rounds they cast a skeleton dragon. I think it would be nice to just have something to keep track because sometimes the battle gets so intense you forget what round it’s been or if you have time to cast that blade or will malistaires dragon just delete it lol.
#Round Counter

love this idea!
theres been too many times i lost count of rounds, i love this idea
It happened to me during darkmoor. During the Mali fight, he had so many round cheats I kept forgetting. And every 5 rounds his dragon would hit and clear all the charms out, so having a counter for that kinda thing would be helpful to know how many rounds until all my blades go bye bye
fair
But I think it would benefit a lot of people, not just for darkmoor.
sylster glowstrom also comes to mind
idk how I feel about this tbh. This would 100% be a quality of life buff, but also part of the challenge of certain bosses like that is having to keep track of the rounds. The punishment for not keeping track of the round in darkmoor is risking when you lose your blades.
that's fair tbh
makes me feel smart when I keep track of the rounds in waterworks for everyone lol
like I am all for this if the mechanic wasn't only used in a very select few number of fights. Which entails the mechanic to be more about creating a playstyle and win condition or limitations to the normal win condition in order to increase variance and difficulty. If a turn counter mechanic was used in nearly every fight it would be a phenomenal change, but as it is currently it would just make certain fights a ton easier than they already are.
Can you clarify on what this means? I agree the counter isn’t useful in every fight but it also won’t be in the way. What do you mean it’ll “make it easier?” Would just remove counting in chat
thats part of the difficulty of fights that it is in, your forced to either keep track of the round counter yourself or communicate with your teammates. The addition of a round counter negates that aspect of the gameplay.
i mean the game isn't hard to worry about things like that. Counter will be a nice QOL update
I don’t feel like it’s an engaging challenge. You could add 100 different things to make the game more “difficult”, but not in an engaging way. Difficulty should be there to challenge the player, not inconvenience them.
what if they actually add this in the game
this would be a nice quality of life update! it would be great to see it added alongside the eventual card-text rework as part of a combat UI overhaul
But we shouldn't have to keep track of the rounds ourselves. It's so easy to lose count. Especially when some bosses interrupt or the hourglass switches turn order. It would just be such a nice quality of life improvement to just have a counter.
this would really help because my attention span in between rounds is nonexistent 🥹
This is a really cool idea!
