I'm actually losing plenty of demons, which kind of hurts my chances to get far. Though I was lucky early on: there was a fiery demon with ember burst and ember heart, which I, of course, picked up. It's pretty nice ability, but it would be better if I had a good source of damage :cry: .

Got Actaeon per the plan (tm) and had quelling cry copied to my malignee.

I also managed to catch Ccoa and copied vigorous on my faerie (later to nero), and added stormwalk to raiju because why not? Free SP! Also, saw aerasi, but... they didn't spark me despite me having no electricity-resistant demons at the time. :? Not that I'm complaining... Also got Raiju there with aid of Swiftness.

Then I got into anomaly... Boy oh boy. Until A:3 I had no problems at all, but then:
1. While I was trying to play the positional game (place two demons far enough for her to not benefit from cleave), nero decided to charge (as in "run to", not use a skill) straight to Madevra, forcing me to dismiss him, then dismiss raiju (he was in red), then witness my kasha try to slash her, fail, get stunned and killed. Then I got very, very mad, charmed & ingited her and dumped 3 bolt glyphs to obliterate her.
(Paracelsus was quite easy, I'm not even sure why)
2. Then, I met ice-focused hand of the dead relic. In the ensuing fight I lost my malignee (chilling blast + icebreaker + 53 magic = one dead demon) and nero (he decided to melee someone again). And, of course, with malignee I lost quelling cry, and with nero I lost absolution, tireless, calm and cleanse. And vigorous. And I'm low on credits. Goddamnit.
3. Then I enemy lured a group of fetches who managed to drain a lot of MaxHP. Good thing I have spare pure gems, or the run could be called toast already.

Yeah, Emit Sparks seems to be in a grumpy mood in the current builds... but most people's reaction to it seems to be along the lines of yours. :D I'll fix it in the next build.

Not sure why Nero would advance in that situation, assuming he had no offensive/debuff abilities, unless the other attackers had run out of SP. Hmm... maybe that shouldn't be a criteria? I've used it in the past so that groups with multiple pacifists won't just sit there and get nuked to death if the rest of the offense falls short, but maybe I've been worrying too much about that.

I've been tossing around the idea of getting rid of Restore Demon (or making it an upgrade) and extending a form of Relic Preservation to demons controlled by summoners... though the version they get would be nasty tempered (i.e. a demon that dies and is saved in this way gets auto-unsummoned, but takes a fairly large chunk of MaxHP damage even if it only barely died.) If a demon's MaxHP drops to 0 from this, that would actually "kill" it and that's when you'd need Restore Demon again. Over time, I've become less convinced straight up perma death works well for demons since they're an important progression element. We'll see though, this is still in the "thinking about it" stages.

Oof, this run was a doozy. At least I've got farther than I expected to. Of course, for impressive chunk of the tower I went without any heals aside from ye olde pyre rite.

Got a bunch of assorted demons for (future) recycling, and to sub in while I'm trying to figure out what to do next. Eventually I decided to just pile up statuses on enemies: ignite, charm, panic, paralysis, OFF down, anything goes. The more, the merrier! Of course, I got Charlie, had to delete\replace some abilities to better suit my playstyle.

Picked Recycle at level 15, it helped me to get somewhat more credits than bare minimum, but it also was an indirect cause of my death. Restored malignee with quelling cry, but nero was unavaliable, and I didn't want to bother with him anyway, considering the risks. Copied the cry to few other people, then after period of unuse deleted malignee.

Got ehlose, got lifebender eloko, got druj nasu. Fused headless to ehlose for mind resistance and some bonus HP. He also got flash heal out of fusion, and war spirit. War spirit was kind of useless, but flash heal isn't that bad. Despite having such good utility, druj nasu wasn't worth restoring, I found another one, recruited him, then lost him again some time later.

Oh, also found shoggoth on someone's relic. Used silver offering to get him, he was my mainstay demon until I died, but if I survived, he'd get fused to virtue for mind immunity.

Then, in her own sanctum, I recruited Ninkasi. She again didn't get much use, but her abilites did! I copied alluring gaze on plenty of demons, and ever ready on one or two. Also revelated her, got guarding cry on 3rd attempt.

Then I got unicorn. Didn't turn him into eternal healing machine, but fused with eloko (for more HP). He got beefy enough to not die in random skirmishes, and got devotion (which is good) and draw wounds (which is also good).

Tried to recruit jinn two times for his abilities. First time I succeeded, but only had enough credits to copy fireball on myself, and no space to keep him. Second attempt... failed. We two ran into group of bonnachons and druj nasus, and I started trying to kill them... but when bonnachon sliced off ~60 or so MaxHP from me, I realized that something is wrong. Looked around and noticed that I don't have heroism on. Damage control ensued, and I somehow survived that.

Speaking of nearly dying, I once survived with 1 / 1 MaxHP. Group of lucky bastard pixies and raijus who wounded my demons enough for me to dismiss them, then brought me to an inch of death (because I pressed the wrong key and instead of opening inventory to use a heal stone, I melee-ed raiju :x ). Thankfully, I had a pure stone! And fortunately, pure stones restore HP along with MaxHP! So I survived, but then I recruited a lifebender eloko. "Good to the last drop" my arse. :evil: I survived that too! And some time later, after encountering panicked wimpy group, I got icebreaker-ed twice. I guess it's because ice hammer+, whatever it's name, hits twice, so I did get hit twice, much to my dismay.

On tower... uh, 15? Wherever bigfoot spawned, I tried to recruit him. I even had haunt just for this very purpose! But...
He spawned with two ionic unicorns, who had ball lightning. I dismissed two demons, he approached me and started clobbering me (as in "dealing very high damage", not "using the clobber skill"), so I linked with him, pulled out Charlie (who had slow just for this one link)... and then Bigfoot retreated away at Mach 2 speed. No joke, he made 7 steps before I got to act again. And he was too far for haunt, and there was no way I could possibly chase him, so I used the portal.

In Tlaloc's Sanctum I had a run-in with virtue. Of course, I recruited him and had him get some healing abilities, while removing grace (too expensive), lux (I need him healing, not trying to nuke) and channeler (to free up a slot).

Then some uneventful floors with my somewhat-working team... and then I had a run in with Jayle. Killed her, recruited one demon (cherufe, I think)... but he was making only like 80 credits in recycle :| . So I tried to get kitsune. And she ran. She ran right into a group of some enemies, and I was dumb enough to follow a bit. When I realized it was a Bad Idea, it was too late: they stumble-locked me, I think, and just when I recovered...

Code: Select all
 You fail to link with the kitsune!
 A malign aura settles upon your party...
 You are shocked!


And then I had a fatal case of death. :X

I swear, one day I'll eke a win out of Faithful Heart.

RE: restore demon: I wouldn't mind for it to be an upgrade, but then I'd ask about more upgrade points. :p And I definitely wouldn't mind some sort of preservation mechanic for demons, given just how quickly anything can die later on, especially those who are on the more fragile side. It'd even work well with Consume, draining massive amounts of MaxHP instead of outright killing the demon. Not sure how could that be balanced though.

I've definitely found... something... that can cause Heroism to drop during a Heroic link, but I'm not sure what it is yet. I'll keep looking into it: sorry about that! :(

:P You know, I honestly wondered if anyone ever triggered any of those "drained player's MaxHP to 1" negotiation lines. It's one of those quirks of game development: I wrote such a line, in fact I wrote several: one for each "voice"... but have all of them been seen by at least one player? I doubt it. :)

For that matter, there's an entire damn mechanic hidden in the HP requests related to whether or not you're Poisoned/Infected that probably also never comes up much because most people do negotiation links early rather than mid-fight. :D I'm almost certain nobody has seen most of those lines. :D

Re: Bigfoot: There's a reason nobody has gotten a very good picture of him :D

Consume would probably become an ability drain the demon's MaxHP to 1, in exchange for restoring your own HP & SP based on how close to normal MaxHP it was (and yes, I'd probably give a bonus when > 100% of normal MaxHP). This would also put an end to "spite consuming" on the AI's part... or rather, it'd at least mean the behavior didn't kill all your possible recruits from their stash.

Recycle would probably still be a part of delete though. AI won't spite Recycle though, it doesn't actually "use" Recycle (I just give them slightly better demon allies if they have Recycle, to simulate the effect of having more credits to play with.)

Found the Heroism bug... and, probably, also the Shock bug w/ Charliss: I broke lose-a-turn enchantments when I was working on the new UI (which required a small change to how they were stored): basically, if you received a lose a turn enchantment, it caused the "deepest" enchantment in your list to pick up its duration instead of itself. If it happened to be the only enchantment, all well and good, but if not, it would make that last enchantment wear off when it should have instead.

This also explains why it happened with Charliss and not other Heroics: Charliss uses Fade, which means he practically always has another enchantment up.

Fix will be in the next build. :) Thanks for reporting this :D

I suppose the response to infected HP would be something among the lines of "pfeh, what a crappy health you have" (patience -1) or "are you trying to poison me, ye bastard" (demon gets furious). Also, one of these runs I'm going to try and botch negotiations that way.

But not this run.

As a change of pace, I've made a very physical summoner with an escort of very physical demons, just for fun. Melee attack, ranged attack, two (and if I get dominator, three) passives to boost the attacks, and two veils to benefit from passives further. Plus, of course, healing factor, free regen is too good to pass.

I got gold offering literally the turn after spotting Actaeon, and at first thought, I wanted to save it for bigfoot or slenderman, but... I got Artemis instead. And it was worth it, because when I fused her to will 'o wisp, I got crippler and silver hand. Crippler is especially useful, considering I'm going full-on IPS (impact, pierce, slash) and hex would help me a lot with that. I also got sure shot from her, but 25 SP is just a tad too much for me, so later on I swapped it with needle shot from centaur.

Also, spread around quelling cry again, and fused Actaeon to jiang shi, which... didn't give me any good abilities. What it gave me is one hell of a tanky demon. Unlike hunter will 'o wisp, who had all the durability of wet paper and, in fact, died two times (thankfully, it's cheap to restore), jiang shi was never truly in danger.

I also got dispas. He is, sadly, just too fragile to be of any use, and so, he wasn't seeing much.

Demons came and went, and I somewhat steadily was making my way to anomaly... where Zaji killed my will 'o wisp the first time, with shock dart. I was slightly bitter, but restored it later, because... well... silver hand. Too good to just let go, but not that useful right now since mages aren't nuke-tastic yet. Oh, and I managed to find a lilim on Tower:5, so instead of being too low level to be part of my team, like any other time, now she joined me.

At anomaly:3 I recruited shoggoth (why is it when demon is out-of-depth, it's almost always the same one?) He asked for sacrifices twice: I refused once and fed him dispas, also once. He is going, according to a certified "why not" plan, to be fused into ehlose, who in turn will make me a nice soul armor. That is, if I don't find any other mindbender demon and if I manage to recruit ehlose and if I have enough credits for it (I expect it to cost a crapton).

Before I got shoggy, I had a fight with:
1. Madevra, who was nasty. On one hand, she was resistant to ISP, on the other, we (sometimes) piled hex on her. And, given that I mostly had physical attackers (+raicho, but I was afraid she'd 2HKO the bird :| ) by that stage, it was a long fight. But we prevailed, and I got crusader from her.
2. Paracelsus, who was easy. Seriously. I expected it to be quite a fight, but we, I think, just locked him in the dismissing\summoning cycle until he got nothing to summon. And then he died. .-.

Somewhere in the tower after anomaly, will 'o wisp died again to a bunch of fire-spamming demons. I got fed up with it and fused will 'o wisp to lilim, having copied sure shot, crippler and silver hand to her beforehand. She actually makes for a good archer, who would've known. ._.
Image
And with three status applicators, she disables enemies very, very handily.

I also fused jiang shi (the well fed one) to a chupacabra, whom I recruited because of spiny veil, and... this cryptid doesn't make a good tank, which is sad. Still, I'm keeping him to hopefully pass on the modifier to somebody more fitting to be a tank.

I also picked up recycle at level 15 to hopefully gather enough credits for all the fusions (and 1 soul armor) I'm going to make.

I am also a bit tempted to stick bloodthirst on myself just for giggles, to heal myself on reactions. Not sure how well it'd work, but it would be a sight nonetheless, enemies hitting me, only for me to recover by counterattacking.

And I'm still not sure whether Icy Hammer procs crippler and the likes once or twice. Probably once, since second part is an ice part, thus I replaced it with double impact from solid oni whom I barely recruited. Had to use a bolt glyph at last turn, in fact.

P. S. bonus question: does counterattack work when character is shocked\stunned\etc.? It doesn't make much sense for it to work, but it's veil-like, so it probably should, and I just got tangled in my own thought and don't really know now.

Re: Poor condition negotiation: It can get slightly more involved than that. :) But, more or less you've got it.

Early Hex on a heavy-physical build is indeed a lucky break. :D

I'm trying to remember if anyone's ever made a "Sure Shot" build... all Str, no Agility. :) That's what that and its cousin Sure Slice are for. :D Their price factors in the effectiveness of those builds, but it does make them tough to use if the benefit is less.

Jiang Shi are already fairly tanky demons provided they're not fighting Body resistant/immunes. :D

I'm hoping the proposed change to summoner demon death will help make demons like Dipsas a bit more usable. They'll still die more often, but since it'd just be a MaxHP hit they can recover from instead of a total loss, that might be worth trying them?

*Seriously* out of depth demons are custom selected by me, usually themed for the place you find them (Shoggoth fits Anomaly because it is in part a place of unfinished and formless creatures) There are procedurally generated out of depth monsters too of course, but those usually are only off by 2-3 floors at most, not the 5 or more of the ones I custom select for more common out of depth appearances.

Hunter Lilim is a new one on me I think, but yeah, those stats would make her amazing at shutting down enemies. :D Hex+Mute+Sleep pretty much covers almost all of your bases, only thing she really needs is Numbing.

Icy Hammer does indeed only proc Crippler once, and as you said, it's because the first hit only is physical. Notably, for passives that don't care about the element, it can trigger the effect in question twice (Tormentor is a good example)

Counterattack doesn't work when disabled. :D Part of why it's named Counterattack and not Blade Veil. :D Notably, Spiny Veil *does* work when disabled, so you do have an option if you want a super-reliable physical veil.

Thanks for the report, and good luck as you continue the run :)

So much for that good luck. I died on very next floor to Lioth, or, rather, to his preta, it's wild frenzy and generous application of guilt\infection\hex, and mummy. And I almost killed preta, but then it regained something like 50-60% HP in one fell swoop, after which I realized that I'm probably screwed.

And even before that, I failed ehlose link twice, wasting pain glyph (paralysis would totally work on a body-immune demon, yeah), wind card and peace offering. Both times I ran into a group of enemy demons, but first time it was atuas and ehloses. Both ehloses got surly after I failed the link. :|

RE: preservation: it'd certainly make using fragile demons more forgiving, and not having to spend a few grand every time, say, raicho, dies would certainly appeal to me as a player who doesn't use recycle that much.

RE: counterattack: it's not immediately obvious, to be honest, since the description doesn't differ that much from other veils, and other veils, of course, work under any circumstances.

I had a high str sure shot build once that was pretty good. Nowadays Sure Shot has to compete with Needle Spray though.

Re: Preservation- Die Hard, Last Defense, Glacial Shell, etc go a long way for saving fragile demons, since it's usually just a bit of inattention that kills 'em

So, after another Pyre Riter died, I decided to do another full-on physical build. This time with all strength.

If not for luck and frugality, I'd never get this armor. Just look... look at this price!

And so far, it even kinda works, expect for the times when I do stupid and nearly die. I guess that defense bonus from strength really saves my bacon sometimes, heh.

Anyway, the build is as simple as it gets: sure shot, sure slice, two SP recovery abilities, reshape + (eventually) unconquerable for heals, fervor for MORE DAMAGE, and, uh, a passive. It's fun to play, but sometimes low HP becomes a little troublesome. That's why... I made it smaller by soul armoring myself to Maj(or?). Ehlose, for dem resists. It did cost me 16k credits and 20% of my maxHP, but in exchange I can laugh at druj nasu, stop worrying about dark attacks draining my maxHP, shrug off a lot of status warfare... and cower in fear whenever I see fire-based demon group.

Oh, also, it's my first soul armor ever, I think.

It was pretty fun run so far. I wasn't bothering much with everything and was just slicing-n-dicing my enemies, sometimes shooting, sometimes reshaping, and sometimes healing my allies with items, because I had no heals. I fed my lifegiver faerie (and another demon I can't quite remember...) to shoggoth (gotten from some relic wraith), because I forgot about 3 offerings I had in inventory. ._.

Paracelsus? Meet my... sword, I guess. Ludoc? Pfff, poor sod died in 3 turns. My own pyre riter? Well, too bad, you're dead (again). Madevra? Okay, she did give me a bit of trouble, but in the end I got her with the help of Python and Artemis. I picked Artemis, by the way, because lucked out on fusion and cursed kasha got quelling cry, so I haven't needed Actaeon anymore.

...okay, maybe I got a little bit drunk on power. Gotta pay more attention so I wouldn't stupidly die. Though, I already forgot to spread several abilites, and I'm still going completely heal-less, reshape aside.

Image

Also, on T:9 I met Tousent. Sorry, Tousent.

Image

He, unluckily for him, was the first victim of my new and shiny Maj. Ehlose soul armor. For a few turns I even thought on why didn't he charm me, and then I remembered about mind resistance.

After that, I fused Artemis to Eloko and Python to Ehlose, because I had credits, because I needed space, and because why not? Both fusions were a bit unlucky, so I guess I'll just hold on them until I can find better candidates for fusions.
