23:40 I feel like you do an exceptional job of remembering all of the little moves in a fight. You remember if there’s block and to add the strength tokens to the actual incoming damage. You remember to exhaust cards. Remove the dazed and burns out of the deck before the next fight starts. Relic roll numbers. You just legit remember it all and it makes the gameplay so smooth. I feel like I try to cut corners sometimes out of playing fast and it’ll cost me at times where I don’t really remember if I counted damage correctly or if I already counted an enemy’s damage… this video really shows me I should slow down and just enjoy the process of the gameplay so I don’t miss any info. 😅

Onward from 41:30, did I miss something or should most attacks not have done damage apart from the poison applied? Do shivs also get debuffed by being weakened?

@SoloParty4 күн бұрын
@@merogic weak only applies to the next attack dealt and reduces that amount by one, no matter how many are applied, and then discard one! Shivs count as 1 damage attacks, so shivs are affected, but weak falls off quickly if you can play a lot of cheap attacks! Important to note, that weak applies to an entire attack action, so with dagger spray, all instances of damage in that attack would become zero and then only one weak would get removed since the card is a single attack that deals multiple instances of damage. Hope that helps clear some of that up! Thanks for watching and for the comment!

Thank you for these videos. It made me understand how the video game was adapted to a board game in a pedagogic way in time for playing the game with my play group. At 25:30-ish btw I think you had lethal on turn one FWIW. Rupture + Inflame(+) with Mutagens is 3 Strength. Play Uppercut for 3+3=6 damage and then Blood for Blood for (4+3)×2=14 damage.
