@Laezar1 2 жыл бұрын

Honorable mention to the boot when it comes to nemesis =p the relic is usually pretty bad but it can really help in that fight as it lets you deal a good amount of damage through it's intangible (multiplying your damage output from attack by 5 during those turns). Being able to finish off nemesis during an intangible turn can mean avoiding one of those nasty 45 damage attack.

If I get Tri sentries first up in act one I nearly always come away with very little health. Sometimes you just can't find any AOE response cards. But once I found out attacking one of the outside Sentries first, it totally changed the way I approach the fight.

Yep! It really, really helps to down one of the outside ones as quickly as possible. AoE is great to have, but you can still do well with really good single-target damage too.

Runic Dome is my second favorite boss relic because of how predictable this game is as you gain around 80+ hours of gameplay. It's basically "gives you a bonus energy for nothing in return." The thing about it is that even if you don't know how much damage an enemy will do to you you know when they damage you and when they don't. But the thing is that even if you do know how much, if you can't defend or kill them then it doesn't matter. Compare it to having 3 energy while knowing how much damage they do, 4 energy without that visible information allows you more leverage in gameplay. On a side note, the best boss relic is Pandora's Box because of the glitch or just by using it normally.

Tbh I find I die more to tougher hallway fights then elites largely due to their predictable patterns and that if I can’t handle one at my current hp and strength I can path around it. You can very easily know what to expect from a elite fight and get a good idea how your deck handles them and if you can afford to take them. I’ve got a upgraded chill so not only can I possibly block both tri sentries at once with 3 defends but I can block 1 with 1 with only a single defend and I have some form of aoe I will likely take very little damage against them for example. But trying to figure out how much damage I’m gonna take from idk snecko with my claw deck is much less predictable. There’s been times where tbh I probably chose wrong in attempting to repath away from elites because I was low hp when I could of handled them and then died to a hallway fight with bad rng. Elites aren’t necessarily the things you should be the most afraid of at times.

@kielaraneolus 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the wonderful helpful guides, Ina. Learnt a few things today. :) And as for the question at the end of the video, I can't say one specific elite, but I think I might be able to choose one for each act. Act 1 I generally take the most damage to Lagavulin - I always forget to have a good way to race them down in my deck while still blocking those big hits. Act 2 would likely be the Task Master and two slavers - I just generally start to crumble against those three medium health-pools or to the debuffs. Act 3 is the easiest choice for me, Reptomancer - her massive attacks plus big hitting daggers always punishes my large decks that I tend to build the most out of any elite in the game. I either miss my damage to the daggers between turn one and two and get opened up with 50 damage to me, or struggle to kill her before she chips me down alone with her massive attacks and debuffing. Act 4 only has one elite as you stated, but I still would like to mention what I struggle more against in this fight - at this point, my block is usually tuned well enough to survive them for a time, but then comes the issue of the burns and my damage being too slow - the shield debuffing usually is what gets me killed the most.

@InaBeta 3 жыл бұрын

All toughies for sure. I'm hoping you'll take this video to heart (lol) in act 4 and kill that shield first! That should make things much more consistent for you for sure.

You joined KZfaq on October 3rd, I would love to see you do a legacy stream on that day this year, where play all the games you used to play for like 12 hours. It's far enough anyway that plans could be made. I would love to see something sooner but I would wait that long. It would be cool to involve your viewers with the stream. For example doing twitch poles that viewers can vote to choose the cards and relics you pick up. Idk food for thought, generally the longer people are away from the platform the harder it is for them to come back. The views might be low but it would have to be something you would want to do regardless of the numbers.

Oh for sure, there are many normal encounters that are notorious for losing players more life on average than elite fights. Shelled Parasite and Fungi Beast are probably top on that list. And you don't even get a relic!

Dude, I transformed all my blocks and strikes as second boss relic. I literally have 2 block cards (and one add two curses every time I use it) in my deck. Now how fair is Nemesis whip out 90 damage in 3 turns and become intangible between them. Lagavulin and Stabby Book bad too but Nemesis is the worst damage spammer.

Question regarding elite spawn, in the video you said that same elite cannot spawn again is it just for the very next encounter? because I kind of remember face the same elite in 1 act twice. Just so I understand correctly let say for example, in act 1 I fight 3 elites The first one being lagavulin Second lagavulin is exclude from the elite pull so Tri-sentries and nob are can appear let say tri-sentries appear For the third is it only tri-sentries that are exclude, my question is can lagavulin can appear again? Also is elite fight affecting dead adventurer event at all? For the question at the end of video, in my opinion the hardest elite for me is either reptomancer or nemesis, because I like to take runic dome and those 2 are harder to predict than other elites in the game, although in general I would say reptomancer are harder to deal with.

@InaBeta 3 жыл бұрын

Yes, you can fight the same elite in an act twice, but you can't fight them twice in a row. No, that has no bearing on the Dead Adventurer event (though you can tell which elite you'll be fighting there by the red text in the event). Reptomancer is always a challenge! Just lost to her and her daggers last night because no AoE response :/

Is the info still true that you need to fight an empowered elite(wasn't looking/not sure if I've seen them before) to get to fight the heart and that you get two relics per elite if you swap out your starter relic? I had no idea....

@InaBeta Жыл бұрын

You do need to fight the empowered elite in an act to get one of the keys to act 4, yes. It isn't the case that you get two relics per elite if you swap your starter; that only occurs if you get a Black Star specifically.

@Brajzah Жыл бұрын

@@InaBeta ah, I understand. Thanks for your great videos, I'm really enjoying them. Just starting trying to get to Act 4 and I'm learning the game. I'm thinking it might be best to try to get all the keys in the first Act but that's just a guess on my part(might want the rewards later on).

@InaBeta Жыл бұрын

@@Brajzah It's best to get all the keys when it's safe for you to do so. If you get ridiculously powerful in act 1, sure, but generally it's best to use your rest to get the key later when your deck is upgraded and it's less likely you'll need to rest later. The Blue key can be gotten whenever you see crap relics or in act 3 (just keep N'Loth's Hungry Face in mind).
