teethgrinder posted:I still haven't beaten Unfair once. The highest I can make is level 12. Tough is way harder than it looks. It takes a lot of enemies that you can kill in one turn and makes them take two turns. Like, consider, on normal, how hard it is to kill the boar at 7 hp vs the 6 or 5 hp enemies. Making the witch or ghost take an extra turn to kill can be devastating. For me, it's either expensive spells or start poisoned as the third.

Start damaged is by far the easiest, for what it's worth.

3 blue/2 red is what I did. More mana + a larger variety of a spells is a good synergy. Just make sure you have at least 1 damage side vs quartz.

I think it's kinda hard to understand why you lost. Decisions in building and decisions in rolling are both huge and a little opaque. I'd say the piece of advice that brought me to a more consistent level is this: It's better to not get unlucky than it is to get lucky. If you get lucky, you still win harder, if you get unlucky you lose. I used to reroll 1 mana sides from the adept, but you can win the early fights on one mana a turn, but you lose them if you get zero. Also, max health items are better than you think. It's fun to try to build a combo, but max health just gives you so much more freedom and consistency. Every damage that you don't have to block is more damage you can deal.

Miftan posted:The fun thing about the witches is that everyone has their own different preferred order for the kills. I like to go poison witch > broom witch > heal witch because if you don't have cleanse poison is really annoying, especially in fights that have enemy invincibility mechanics. For me it depends on the situation but I always kill healing last. If I don't have any cleanse yet, I might kill poison first. If I do, I prefer killing the weaken one first. Also, it's uncomnon to have at that point, but the capacity to do 4 damage is a big deal. Killing one of them on turn 1 is huge. It also helps with all the ogres in subsequent fights.

I'd probably order them: Start Damaged > Fewer Rolls >> Expensive Spells > Start Poisoned > Tough Monsters >> Left Blank Fewer rolls does require you to play tighter, but given optimal play, I don't think it's a huge detriment to your win rate. I'm willing to swap expensive spells and start poisoned, but that poison damage is a lot. Tough monsters takes enemies that you could kill in one turn and makes them take 2 turns. I'd never be able to, like, snipe a witch first turn, for example. And of course, left blank is horrible and impossible to overcome.

I had good luck doing Left Blank with the 2 healers 3 casters, with Start Damaged and Start Poisoned. Maybe enemy health would be better than poison here, because I found that I tended to start fights being able to match damage with healing, so the need (and also ability) to snipe enemies t1 is reduced. Plus, fights tended to take a really long time doing it this way and that made poison worse.

This new version has changed and expanded nearly every aspect of the game, and the balance is way out of whack. It certainly needs some tuning. In particular, I think heroes have significantly more blank sides now (especially if you count the death sides) and also more single use and exhaust sides, and also more enemies that inflict weakness or single use. And, that's probably the biggest hit to consistency, along with enemies like fanatics which are just a little too strong compared to how strong the game thinks they are when building encounters.

Really wish I could undershoot the blessing point requirement like I can overshoot a curse point requirement. Really sucks to get two blessings that would be fun together but not be able to run them because I can't make exact change with what's left over.

Arzaac posted:Incidentally, thinking of weird grey heroes, I absolutely love the twins. My last run I didn't even have them equipped with great items, just worn arms and simplicity, and even there they dish out 4-6 combined shields/damage per turn. You could get some great use out of them with like, Broadsword + Triple Shuriken for example. I had a recent run with Emerald Mirror and twins. 3 iron helms, 3 eucalyptus + infiniheal. I was invincible.

Arzaac posted:God, I just had an Unfair run that I almost finished. Got a Wanderer with Prism and Monocle, plus a Sharpshooter. End result was a 4 damage quad-use with Engage and Rainbow, and the Sharpshooter could copycat that for a 7 damage quad-use! Unfortunately I rolled poorly enough on The Hand that I just barely lost; he died, but the turn before he did he summoned 3 Sabers. Wait, why is monster charged level 3 and - 3 max mana level 2?

I got a side to 10000-ish before it was patched to cap sides at 999 for stability reasons (not by stacking a bunch of doubling abilities, just with an expontential combo) Also, smith events and emerald items mean that you can get more than 3 items on a hero, and there's no restriction on level. Plus you can also get abilities from blessings.

You need to build with the assumption that the opponents won't get a turn, because most of the time, they won't. And, a good blessing helps.
