I’ve played hundreds of hours on console and I’ve picked up a free PC copy, but the controller support (with an Xbox series controller) seems extremely messed up — either it doesn’t respond at all, or by fiddling with the Steam settings for half an hour I was able to make it recognize my inputs but the arrow for selecting enemies to attack was all the way off the screen for some reason. I can’t play with a mouse — anybody else play with controller on PC and can share their settings?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but can someone tell me what's going on with seeds? I decided, for fun, to copy a run on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kgChPcW0yQ I copied the seed and put it into my game. Everything is identical up until the first question-mark event, which is the trade-for-a-relic one. Jorbs trades a Heavy Blade and gets a Juzu Bracelet. I trade a Heavy Blade and get a Nunchucku. The fight against tri-sentries proceeds exactly the same way, but he gets Training Dummy and I get Bottled Flame. Our card reward choices are identical. What am I doing wrong here? It's the same game version, and I don't have anything left to unlock. I made sure to copy exactly his actions/cards. Are relics randomised beyond just the seed?

Arivia posted:Ascension count also affects what happens, did you copy that too? It turns out I have one relic left to unlock, Melange, which makes sense since I hardly ever play Watcher. Melange doesn't come up in his run (it's an Ironclad run) but I guess if the game is using the seed to skip n steps down a relic list to generate rewards or something, and I've got one that's ineligible, maybe that's throwing it off...

Got bored of losing as Silent and Defect last night so I went ahead and did Ironclad for something different. Act 1 boss I drew Corruption because why not. Act 2 chest gave me Dead Branch. A shop in Act 3 gave me double Feel No Pain from Courier. Sometimes the game just wants you to win.

Misplayed on Heart and would've killed it otherwise. Getting the hang of Hermit. Observations from this particular run:
Some general thoughts after multiple runs with the character.

lol you can play Hermit cards mid-card-draw, if you're quick, and get the Dead On bonuses if applicable. just got bonus energy by playing an Enervate in card position 1 while playing a Covet from position 3 i guess it's a bit similar to how the Champ can get combo bonuses for stances previously held during the turn; the mod creators're kind of pushing the design parameters of the Spire engine

Idk how i feel about hermit. I feel like im conditioned to skip defends/strikes stuff (abd theres like idk 6 cards that go with it?). Seems like bruise or debuff > str buff is the way to go. Theres one cards thats like draw 13 curses in one turn 🙂 and im just baffled why i would have 13 curses anyways. Ill have to try a proper high noon strike defend deck later but it just sounds lame when all his other cards are pretty sweet and fun

wow I've never played modded StS before because I always kinda assumed any modded stuff would be hot garbage w/r/t balance but Downfall owns. The Snecko boss character does actually feel wildly overpowered but everything else is at least in the same ball park.

I personally have a lot of fun with the Marisa custom class mod, moreso than the Hermit, Servant (i.e. Sakuya), and Arknights mods. The main conceit is charging up, of which you gain one with every card played and gets spent by the eight to double the damage of an attack. Besides that, there's also Amplify, which is a kicker cost that enhances the effect at an extra cost. Both these mechanics are pretty straightforward, but create some depth in sequencing optimally because you're required to pay them if you can afford it. It's the only custom character I've enjoyed enough to grind out ascension 20, at any rate. Besides that, Spire with Friends is an extremely fun co-op StS game mode. When the main streamer I follow happens to play StS, he'll host either a co-op or versus race with viewers, which are a lot of fun to join in.

Also shout out to Robot Space Explorer because its just kind of a cute kid/dad project where the kid came up with the idea for a new character and did a bunch of card art and dad fully finished out a mod to make it playable. Also fun to play, if definitely on the stronger side for a mod character.

Minty Spire has some good quality-of-life enhancements. It has reminders for stuff like echo form, shows what you will no longer have enough gold for if you buy something in a shop and a bunch of others.

I did it, I finally got a searing blow deck all the way to the heart! Dunno if that heart fight was winnable but I came drat close.  Edit: I blame the lack of act 2 fires.

It was really satisfying to beat the Heart with a 3 energy deck (thanks Pandora/Pyramid!). Phrog/Combust helped me squeak by Slime Boss with 14hp then the deck just kept getting more and more OP. I only had Headbutt, Clothesline, Bash, Anger, and Strikes for attacks in Act 1. Pain/Blue Candle/Bloodletting/Combustion + 2x Rupture for Strength, Master of Strategy/Battle Trance/Dark Embrace/Burning Pact for draw, Seeing Red/Bloodletting for energy. Gambler's brew + Bag of Prep always gave me a great starting hand. Still had two potions and lizards tail at the end. Such a fun deck to pilot

I've been pretty happy with Spire mods in general, evenly the badly balanced ones I've tried were fun to experiment with - there's not a lot of "Do 100 damage for 1 energy", it's more along the lines of the creator not knowing how good exhaust really is, or similar. Anyway, aside from the ones already mentioned these are some of the characters I've enjoyed trying out: The Bug Knight (based on Hollow Knight, but still pretty good) The Sidereal Jorb's Wanderer Trilogy The Marked The Heirophant The Disciple The Runesmith And of course: everything is the same but u backflip on backflip

Is there a mod that lets you do the daily challenge without having to quit your current run? It seems dumb that you can't have multiple going at once.

Maaan, I keep dying on Heart with Hermit. I can easily get a ton of value, enough to steamroll the rest of the game, but I can't seem to get enough of a combo engine going to power up enough to take out the Heart before I get worn down.

Everything in downfall seems crazy OP. I think the creator(s) just like cards that make cards, like a lot. They also have a clear idea for what each character wants to do, but I think they make it too easy to do that thing. This is my 2nd ever run with Hermit:  Basically, Overwhelming Power is just a ridiculous card, basically 0 downside, just a big pile of free, with a helping of free on the side. Free cards, free energy. I had 2 of them. Between that and free vulnerable every 1st turn, I was able to kill something with Dead or Alive+ on turn 1 every single fight. I had to add a few other cards to deal with multiple enemies but it didn't matter. I killed 5 elite in a row without taking damage. Chemical X was just overkill for everything but bosses. Combo is kinda the same deal, but you have to work a tiny bit harder to go off with it and it might just flood your deck with lovely block cards if you're super unlucky.

Spire in general doesn't feel like much of a challenge anymore after so much playing and the mod characters are definitely stronger than the vanilla ones. It's why I use mods like Humility, Corrupt The Spire, Infinite Spire and Ascension Reborn to really jack up the difficulty and allow looping in normal runs. I also play multiplayer via Together In Spire with my partner pretty often and that's another way to ratchet up the challenge as the mod lets you adjust enemy hp and damage multipliers based on player count. I usually go 150% more per player and 30% more damage. Despite all this, Intangible is _still_ broken, removes all concept of defense and I want a mod that severely nerfs it for players. I'd personally change it to a 33% damage reduction effect that can stack up to 3 times but loses all stacks on turn end. I can also just not take any sources of intangible I guess, but eventually the incoming damage becomes too much for anything but pure block decks to handle and the hp so high + 15 card limit you can't one-turn-kill them, so some sources of percent-based damage reduction would be really nice without being flat out busted like Intangible.

Early versions felt pretty weak, like there were plenty of cards worse than already-mediocre base game cards, with little to no synergy to make them actually good. It's possible they wound up overcompensating the other direction (the same thing happened to Watcher.)

i mean they rebalance very frequently but yes, the boss characters in downfall do seem crazy powerful. also the keys give you bonuses, rather than being straight penalties!
