    Another thing I just learned is the 4th regular fight in act 1 is when the encounter difficulty jumps, so keep that in mind in selecting your pathing. If your deck is weak, delay the 4th encounter as much as possible.

    Yeah its basically STS 1 with higher production quality like better animations/sound. Mechanics/cards like 90% the same but the characters/cards aren't 100% identical to STS 1

    Can't go for elites unless the RNG gods bless you with a good early hand, at least in act 1. Early merchant lets you purge a strike and possibly get some key cards early. Ascension 10 double act 3 boss down while taking 0 damage from both

    1. Hit as many shops as you can to remove your starter cards, focus on strikes first 2. Keep your deck lean, I skip more cards then I take usually 3. But build around what you're given as well 4. Trial and error figuring out which cards/rewards are good and which are mediocre

    I'll check these out after I've done grinding through all the difficulties to see if theres anything interesting I missed or to explain "Why in the world would anyone pick this card"

    Easiest and most consistent necro build is getting cards that generate Souls, then cards that benefit from using souls. I think another issue people might have is they start a run with a build in mind, and try to force it to work. But if RNG gives you mostly doom cards, then certainly a soul/pet...

    Talked to a buddy of mine who's an industrial mechanic but has worked on everything including his own cars, said he ran into a similar issue. We both only live within 3-5 minutes of our job, his battery's voltage was fine but the repeated small trips slowly just killed the CCA's, so I'll go get...

    Another aspect is we're tired of game companies putting out great content that we love and then inevitably being gutted by HR, bean counters, and DEI. If Marathon was just made by some nobody company it'd just be another bad/mid/decent game that flies under the radar.

    No voltage test, and I didn't see the results of the test, they hooked up the portable tester and just said it was good. Battery is at least 3 years old. Also hadn't used the car in 11 days, so the age of the battery combined with it sitting long enough could've been long enough to be the death...

    Yeah, its a mechanic that can RNG fuck you hard. Best defense against it when you find out she's the boss is build around card draw mechanics as best you can but once again you're at the mercy of RNG there as well. Perfect example of RNG fuckery is I just won 5 rounds with Ironclad going...

    Finally got some good Defect runs. Went with the draw/status card style, abusing over clock and the card that turns status cards into fuel for more draw/energy. Honestly it felt like more draw abuse then I was getting out of Silent but comparable to Necro. Icing on the cake was I got the...

    I never even selected that card. Don't sleep on Murder, I thought it only increased damage on draw during your turn, but I found out the damage increase applies to all card draw, including your innate draw each turn. With pen nib and vulnerable I did over 300 damage on final boss.

    Kinda, but its a lot harder to get pet HP then block, so it sorta balances. There's the power that gives summon with every soul played, got a +100 hp pet very easily. Also, had a necro soul run that had the letter opener and tuning fork artifacts. Letter opener does 5 damage to all enemies...

    Sounds more like their common tactic like what we went through in the napster days. Examples sited include threatening to sue a lady singing to herself at work and a mechanic listening to the radio while he worked alone.

    It's what we did in the pizzaria. Dough was made day before, kept in the walk in all day and we took it out what we needed through out the day hours ahead of time. Stretches way easier with less chance of breaking, especially when we were making 20" slice pies

    I think they toned down the amount of extra energy relics. I remember in 1 you almost always got at least 1 from a boss, now the bosses don't seem to give any at all that i've seen yet outside of the demon guy at start of act 3
