Haven't tried that particular combo but I'm a fan of them with the item that makes them a jester, or just sets any individual slot to a powerful skill. Yes please double chaos wand.

Does anyone have any advice on The Hand? I've only beaten him like one time, he always destroys me.

The hand really rewards you for doing broken stuff as opposed to playing "fair" (basic attacks/blocks with lots of pips). A single hero with a bunch of reroll/cantrip sides will really benefit you here. Focus on the boss itself rather than the swords unless they're going to completely trash your game plan, you need to finish the fight fast.

Oh good, I'd forgotten about the Hand.

Was worried I'd have to put this game down since I'd unlocked all the modes but that'll give me at least another long plane flight's worth.

Here's hopin' the rumored 3.0 adds a bunch more Stuff.

I am feverishly hoping for decently accessible support for shareable custom Modes (and that they'll be compatible with mobile). Wanna come up with insane gimmick gamemodes and trade them with other people. Swapping text files like modders on old bulletin forums

Just gonna repeat that more flexibility in picking blessings would be great


As far as i can tell the only way to take the 2 point challenge every level is to also take the 5 point heal+ and the 7 point kill bottom character.

Maybe a permanent option for 'pick random blessings' that fills in remaining point values with random stuff would work

That's a good idea. I'd also like a "pick your blessings" mode as a (difficult) unlock so that gimmick runs aren't a huge pain

Hexia is still a nightmare on some playthroughs. I'm fairly sure I have more losses to Hexia than the other two combined.

I'm tempted to run the option that just unlocks everything, because I am still not sure how or when I will ever lose to Alphas 10 times.

Hexia is by far the boss most equipped to hard-counter certain builds, yeah. The other bosses can typically be brute-forced, but if you're running some crazy-rear end cantrip attack build without Thimble or Shining bow, lol bye. Same goes for a party with tons of mana generation and really good spells, but no reliable means of preventing mana burn from vapourizing your blue hero. Hexia is the only boss whose lethality can actually scale depending on your heroes' own power!

Try brutal or hell mode. Alphas become more dangerous when you have a bajillion curses

I tend to pick Monster +Side curses and really really hope they don't roll a summon.

Hell mode doesn't seem fun, though I recognize that it's for the craziest of crazies.

Awesome.

I recently discovered level 4 heroes after actually playing with curses and taking a curse that was -1 hero.

It gave me a relatively broken character with a cool background. Playing levels 21-30 sounds like you're very likely to have more level 4s.

..............but will there be generic level 4s now?
