I imprisoned a man for the economy in Potionomics [PATCHED]

It's tough making it as a young entrepreneur, you've got arbitrarily high quantities of generational debt, owls judging your every move, and a customer base that barely has 2 minutes to hear you explain why you deserve to eat this month.
Luckily, we can solve that last one.

@@JamesTDG While I'm not above being a shill, I'll probably never go personally pinging other creators I dont already know. Seems like something I'd be bothered by myself. If I just leave it to enthusiastic fans, then at least the pings had to occur somewhat organically.

Don't send it yet, there's npc spoilers here tbh

[@Scytherian]

You can use the cards Improv (draw 3 cards that cost 0 or 1), Craftsmanship (6 interest, increase potion price by 3%) and any card that applies Shocked (customer buff: customer gains 25% less interest) to create an infinite turn that also leads to an INFINITE cost potion. By playing multiple cards that cause Shocked, you can actually stack Shocked so that the customer gains 100% less interest. This is allows you to play infinite Craftsmanships, which increase the potion's price but now give 0 interest so the transaction never ends. Improv can only draw cards, but only cards that were 0 or 1 BEFORE being discounted by Rhythm. Therefore, if you set up your deck correctly, you can play Craftsmanship --> Craftsmanship --> Improv infinitely. Using Improv allows you to keep 2+ cost cards in your deck, because if your hand is too big you can't play the cards that go off your screen. Now you can keep someone imprisoned for infinite time and take infinite money from them as well, passing the crippling generational debt onto your poor customer!

[@Nevakanezah_]

Iirc, shocked only stacks duration, not intensity.

[@AnEnderNon]

@@Nevakanezah_ pretty sure i saw in someones video that shocked turned into 50% not sure if it goes up to 100% though

[@austinhudson774]

@@AnEnderNon i think you are wrong, the reason they were gaining only 50$ is probably bc the customer buffed themselves with a different buff that applies another 25% and they are additive. There are duplicates of certain buffs and debuffs that depend on who applied them (they are labeled as different thibgs and have different icons too, so if you went back to the video, youd be able to see it)

[@AnEnderNon]

@@austinhudson774 ok true

[@franz83]

New strat for the otters I see 🤔

[@alexion3007]

Question - could you then play Compromise, to permanently block the end of the sale, and then play an infinite amount of Craftmanships to become a millionaire legitimately?

[@Nevakanezah_]

Compromise just reduces the max interest level by one stage, so it actually reduces the number of craftsmanships you can play in a row because the customer leaves earlier. Trust me, that's what I wanted to get away with too.

[@ArcNine9Angel]

If you still need the solution for this, it's apparently stacking the Shocked customer buff, makes it so you generate 0 interest. Then just keep stacking price increases to your hearts desire. May have been patched tho.

[@Nevakanezah_]

@@ArcNine9Angel I was under the impression that shocked only stacked duration, but i saw a video that implies this is bugged/not the case, so yeah - that does work.

[@lucacuneo7218]

How dare you use this devilish strategy to lead me into a addicting spiral of learning root

[@Nevakanezah_]

I'm like the Redwall version of MK-ULTRA

[@tasoganedude]

I realized that Xid's card are the most broken ones in the game. I see most people use her cards in their deck.

[@Nevakanezah_]

Aside from the very obvious bug in this video, it's less that Xid's deck is *broken* per se, and more that haggling's definitely designed around patience being a very limited resource. Not only are cards that restore patience really rare, but Xid's deck has both the majority of these cards, as well as the most powerful versions of this effect. The same can be said of any of the decks wrt the areas they focus on, it's just that patience gain is way more valuable and rare than anything else.

[@tasoganedude]

@@Nevakanezah_ I'm using Chorus, followed by Improv, Scheme, and Pressure to pull out exactly the cards I need to get max interest. Okay, so I guess it isn't entirely on Xid's cards.

[@lhumanoideerrantdesinterne8598]

Yep, all characters aren't equal... Xid and Saffron are clearly on top. Regulated Breathing and Serenity of Mind are just ridiculous.

[@Nevakanezah_]

[@Nevakanezah_]

My core demographic is currently players of one specific board game

[@a.b.5688]

You can actually do this without exploiting a bug. Rhythm+Rhythm+Rattle 'Em Off alongside a bunch of card draw, and a few +patience cards will do the same thing. I particularly like doing it with Encore in my deck and enough rapid card draw to pull it out again fast, just in case I can't get off double-rhythm before the current turn.

[@Nevakanezah_]

The bug made it pretty free, rather than waiting for a copy of rattle to show up. Bug's long since been patched, though.

Just leaving a comment for the algorithm 👍

[@undergravitydownforce714]

infinite increase in profit with flattery? or just a flat 15% with more casts of it not stacking also is the max extra % of base cost 100% Or can 150 be reached

[@Nevakanezah_]

Flattery only stacks duration, sadly. Ive gotten to ~166% off of craftsmanship/hustle, but you're always limited by the interest cap

[@darkprogram]

Talk about a "captive audience"

Can you get enough cash to pay the debt without winning the competition?

[@Nevakanezah_]

Yes, it's eminently possible. Though I'm told that even if you have the full million on-hand when failing the competition, you still get a Game Over.

[@bobth6095]

I mean, there is a way to get an infinite loop of 0-cost cards that increase potion by a flat 3% using an extremely similar deck, so he doesn't need to use this bug, but I think this is funny anyways.

@@bobth6095 Yeah sorry; I was just expecting something different. Its just not for me :)
