Ah shoot. @magic karma can you make it count Soul singular as opposed to plural Souls?

ivory harness
#

Really important note for those going for score as this is the first time we've done this... there is a massive point bonus on a specific malignancy, Rotting.

Might gloss over it if not reading carefully as it's the first time this particular scoring method has been used πŸ˜› .

Hi all so when i search dawndash card dec too n click.rhe buton at the bottom.ehixh says optimize for this weeks weekly challenege its only giving me gold.blacl or browm bammwr cards why is it not automatically selecting the orange red n green banner cards aswell

pulsar zenith
#

there are so many things to keep track of at the beginning of this one it kind of turns me off. not sure if i will try this one or not

#

somehow it feels overcomplicated

fast cradle
#

Or am.i just being thick lol

kind vortex
ivory harness
#

Yeah the basic is pretty good

kind vortex
#

They're basically longswords and then a free monster enchantment and any health lost by rotting is gained back thru souls

ivory harness
#

That's the plan :p

dry verge
#

Question: if i have rotting malignancy and heal during combat but I have temp max health does it still deduct from my regular max health?

ivory harness
#

I believe so

dry verge
#

For example if I use grave pact and then heal will it help?

ivory harness
#

As the reduction should be hitting your true max hp as rotting directly affects that number I believe

@fast cradle @ivory harness
ahhh, the format is slightly different πŸ˜…

When there is only 1 class loadout available in a challenge, then the dataformat under the hood is written out slightly different. So the Cardex is struggling to pick up that there is a Hunter available here.

  • black and brown are always enabled by default.
  • Not sure why gold is getting enabled without any holy talents.

I'll look into it! πŸ‘€

#

(You can always toggle stuff on and off after optimizing. The optimize basically just toggles the right stuff for you. You are free to change things after that)

Oh nooo I thought headhunter bypassed Rotting πŸ’€

@plain anchor did you do a post somewhere at some point explaining the sources of healing that bypass Rotting? I forget πŸ™ƒ

I usually don't go for top scores but I still want to do this one with the baseline malignancies on (and I consider Rotting baseline on this one since it's basically mandatory for a decent score)

I didn't beat dante because I bricked my run with mageslayer like a noob. But 12k is the highest base score ive gotten in normal since playing the game so I wanna share

I also made use of the reaver bug to get that damage score, so its fair that I didn't make it, i think

Move your deck into your Discard Pile. Return up to 3 cards to your hand.

Yeah deliberately made Rotting technically optional because it's kinda brutal with the imbue

tough coral
#

As long as you generate 100 souls you can heal 50 hp

#

Wasn't there a card that gave souls for dealt damage

plain anchor
#

Yup it's one of the starting cards

#

I think I'll wait until Alcars' is back next week before trying again. Damage scaling is waay to slow now, unless you get lucky with your first few cards

ivory harness
#

Yeah with Enraged on you kinda need it to keep up

#

Enraged needs a higher score % :p

tough coral
#

Demonic Transfer isn't blocked, so from canto IV pivot to Seeker for that might not be a bad idea?

#

(well, technically Hunter has access to those cards)

kind vortex
#

Theres something that makes rotting a lot ea$ier. If you watch my bug report videos you might catch what it is

#

@lyric briar belated, but one thing that makes the general really hard is if you have first strike and perception, his effect automatically goes off on your first turn

#

So a humble 2 banners become 3 and you get chunked first turn

Yeah, that's tough

Oh and btw @plain anchor - i was born on June 9th. This is significant for two reasons.

  1. If you go by the Julian calendar system my birthday is one number higher than yours, meaning i win.
  2. June 9th is literally 6/9. I never once decided to be a dickhead. It has been fated since the very beginning

Lol i'll stop. I blame the game being too hard for my over attention to discord. I think I'll play sunforge and leave you good folk alone.

Haha, that acutally made me look up the julian calendar. Had no idea it was so different!

Btw, I acutally tried recreating the Reaver bug withQuick Fingers ready to get that max damage, but the game just kept crashing for me instead... Had no way of surviving the next few fights anyway.
Hoping for another acutal try once Alcar is fixed 🀞

Just taking a break @steep atlas , will suddenly come back πŸ˜‰

fast cradle
steep atlas
# fast cradle The card vault mulyiole times or just once n side or up transmute all monster c...

I had three vaults in my deck for most of the game and it worked like a charm.
Going for max damage there is an easy path through Remeberance with Blessed enchant. Gotta go through fire canto to get, but it's essentially code of chivalry. So the true challenge is just surviving from one round to the next. Side transmuting monster cards gives you good access to frozen and jinx and stuff like that. With cards that return a specific card, you just need one sweet monster card to survive. Rushed Forgery is still incredible, and cards that return actually work even if you're holding 20 cards.
I got to nearly 2800 health by using forgery on the 'damage = souls when flanking' card, returning Rushed Forgery, which would generate extra copies of return cards, which could then return forgery ad nauseam. I got rid of all of the initial monster cards asap - gotta ditch that healing card first and try not to heal at all so the 'slay an enemy with less than 25% of your max health' is effective.
Carpet made it all much easier.

#

If you are lucky enough to find a commerce shrine in Canto 1 i would switch rememberance to the slay card right away and re acquire rememb later on. Remem is worthless early on, and the early part of the run is by far the most difficult

#

Even with perception and a lucky pull from a tombstone its still hard as hell

fast cradle
#

Thanks yes i e bern tryjng to get no mercy asap but tganksfor thd tips very helpful

kind vortex
#

Remembrance tip is good and you can always switch back to it, I started weeping woods to get the pigs anger enchant for later, and transmuted my remembrance into a recall for xp

#

If i took the 500 gold I think my score would've been higher but I took the armor stagger talent so that last stand could take out anyone that my vanquish didn't

#

Had like 400 max hp going into fights and only 20-30 hp active so last stand and vanquish were huge

#

Didn't have perception either but in normal damage is low enough where it was fine

#

I like to yap... last note is that I only used cursed cauldron like two times, despite getting it like third battle in

steep atlas
#

I tried maybe 6 times to do a run at 155% with this bug, and I couldn't pull it off on challenging.
Switching slow-to-act to boundless made it much easier, but the flying carpet is an absolute must.
The affliction doubling is very not fun with the bug, so speed in the early game is key. Without the energy reduction from the carpet there's just no way to outpace the afflictions.

#

Props to anyone that finished a run without anger from enraged.
I didn't think of this in my first run, but you can remove the Falling Apart enchant after recruiting Serena, which i did, which obvs made everything much easier.

#

But that means you have to choose between Blessed and enchant removal. Was able to pick up Chivalry from acquisition, so best of both worlds.

ivory harness

But very clever :p

Boundless spoils definitely makes it easier

If there's anything about my runs anyone wants to ask for help, im open to it

#

Ill try it on challenging tho its probably different

steep atlas
# kind vortex If there's anything about my runs anyone wants to ask for help, im open to it

Really, really excellent run.
Eeeeexcept for your max damage dealt.
Huge tip incoming
From the outset of your run, setting yourself up to get over 5k damage should be always on the forefront of your deckbuilding strategy. Why? Because it's very difficult to do. Why else? It's basically a mandatory entry fee for your ticket to play with the big boys.
Joel and Z and Brill hit +5k damage nearly 100% of the time they win (excepting challenges with builds that make this nearly impossible)
Sam and I hit +5k about a much on hard.
So the big tip I'm giving you her in a sec comes to you from me through @pulsar zenith .
His 5k strategy from the beginning of the game is "double the blessings". He mastered the start of turn strategy and which is generally code of chivalry Γ— seeker start of turn cards.
But if it's a hunter challenge, he gets the Blessed enchant from Remembrance to double blessings.
Blessed can only be gotten through Rememberance if you go through the fire canto - not Ambermines.
Once you get to the deep you'll need two critical components to make blessed (or chivalry) work - a way to reliably get anger and barrier in the first round (and Blessed through Rememberance in round one).
If your barrier doubles faster than enemies destroy it, that's all it takes. You only need 1 pt anger to make this work. Barrier you need a lot more. Octo guy or Claw guy are your targets.
Armor guy in cathedral is a pushover too.

#

Other than that your run was excellent, very, very impressive deck. Seriously top notch.

#

Nvm the ambermines. Getting rid of imbue is convenient, but hitting 5k is baller.

#

From the outset of the game, front- of- mind all the time are these two objectives:

  1. how to get category maxes
  2. how to beat Spine
#

Focusing on one but not the other wont get you where you want to go

steep atlas
#

Awareness, wealth and damage are the categories you can explode

kind vortex
#

I struggle the most with awareness to where I just ignore it

#

This is fantastic advice thank you

kind vortex
#

Inside is a no go. But buying three cheap potions = 30g for 15 hp restored

#

Actually even less since it pays you back

#

15g for 15hp

steep atlas
kind vortex
steep atlas
#

Ahhh

kind vortex
#

#

Very nice

#

So that's my big secret on rotting haha

#

I went ambermines for the heal from the priestess but the blessed enchant seems the way to go

steep atlas
#

Forbidden fruit still works with collector i think

#

Oh but then you'd need to consume them. Nvm
Great exploit for cash though

kind vortex
#

Yep, strength in numbers is fantastic as well with those apples and cursing potions into other potions etc

#

Only reason I know all of this is I specifically had a stage where I wanted to play the game and see how high I could get my hp lol

#

Forbidden fruit would add during battle tho and that costs 5hp

steep atlas
#

Hey this is for another time but, uh, next level strategy is to recruit nether priestess nor demon.... NOR BOLGAR

#

I learned it from Joel

#

Its how he keeps his advantage

Really? I get bolgar to memorize my FTK cards

I try to get alter memory but im not lucky with it often

Yeh yeh ^^ funny enough I found the early card with the seven healing that removes bleeding (even though thats redundant) to be pretty good, since it's so cheap, maybe there's another monster card transmute with a low Health low cost thing like that

Godspeed Mr Joel!!

#

Sure would be cool to see some rogue badass actually beat the bugged version of this challenge on impossible

#

Oh wait...

#

BAM

kind vortex
#

You gain healing from Viola via opportunities and many other out of combat sources. You can't spam it in battle to heal without the rotting penalty and the other downside is having to bloat your deck to get the heal. Its not a game breaking secret lol

pine escarp
#

The reduction of Sorcery Amassing is something I absolutely love to see. This was too much of a must-have pick for highscore attempts. This seems much more balanced now.

#

The next "too cheap" candidate IMO is Slow to Act but that one has not had such a big impact in the meta just yet. Let’s see if it actually becomes as prevalent as I think it will.

kind vortex
#

It should make competition healthier, im looking forward to it

#

Some weeks having to auto pick SA just made it a slog

steep atlas
#

Grats @plain anchor . Incredible. This challenge is so tough i thought i might have a chance with sheer luck

#

This has got to be the most ridiculously difficult challenge ever

plain anchor
#

Finally got it!
Super lucky with an early Forgery, letting me pull off the @steep atlas special infinite-free-cards-spam chefsKiss Used that opportunity to spam as many soul reaves as I could per fight early game. Late game was just Vanquish OTK due to the insane amount of max health.
Was hoping for the gold-wall cheese as well but the card never showed up.
Also, Boundless is a great malignancy for this week! With over 100 rare/legendary score cards available this week, it felt like every 2-3 battles gave me a score card.

#

I had zero attack cards besides vanquish. Just the arrow equip. Had to imbue the 'free lighting card when critical" to pair with 'take 3 damage and all attacks critical' to create the infinite free lighting card loop to win.
