Dev Diary: "AI" is coming! Let’s talk about respawning

Maybe as an April fool's joke they already released it?

 

So wait the joke is that there is no joke?
Classic BM

 

"Ohh yeah, that's right, I've been in low enough Elo lately that Magic Elves hasn't faced me anymore to see my Aloyzo's Arena deck in full action."

 

Bzzzt wrong, I just haven't been playing recently, very busy. You might also be right, though.

 

Asking question at this stage is probably silly, but I'll go for it anyways.

Will we see stuff like Contagion, Fork, Empower, Enlarge and Memorisation available for players after rebalancing? I think that could really change the wizards' or priests' worlds.

 

i hope dont, they seems overpowered

 

and so is Accelerate Time. Which is why introducing them with higher quality sounds like a decent idea.

 

I am wondering how fork will behave on area magic.

The only 2 cards from the list I could possible see implemented are Enlarge (but with a roll mechanic) and Memorisation (Keep unless 1)
The others are a bit OP, IMO.

 

It wouldn't. It says "target."

 

Mmm. Right. What about Arcing spark then?

 

It says SINGLE character, Arcing and Jump spark both target more than a single target.

 

But what if you only targeted one person with it? As an example, Leathery Hide doesn't prevent damage from Arcing Spark if the arcing spark only targets the creature with leathery hide.and extremely powerful example of that would be choosing to target the same character three times with scatter laser - actually, does anyone know if you can damage an egg with leathery hide using a scatter laser that targets the same egg three times?

 

You can't choose the same target multiple times with the version of Scatter Laser that got released

 

That's weird. Leathery Hide shouldn't grant Immunity to Arcing Spark since it *does* directly target. Hm. If that's what happens, I'd report that as a bug.

 

I have always been curious about how Enlarge would work with Spreading Laser. Could you hit 9 times the center target? or only once? or maybe Enlarge would not trigger?

 

I'd assume Spreading Laser would check each tile within a 3x3 radius around the targeted tile and on any tile in that radius with a character in it, hit that character and hit any adjacent characters. Sounds like it could hit a lot of enemies if you can get enemies in a tight cluster.

 

I'm pretty sure it's not what happens. Leathery Hide cares about targeting, not how many characters are targeted.

 

Helpful tip for when AI comes out: Randimar's Rarities only loads your new stuff when you check it the first time in a week, so if you don't check it the week AI is scheduled to come out until it DOES come out, you'll have an extra chance to get all the new rare stuff! Of course, this'll only be useful if the devs give us a warning of the week it'll be released, other than "This month probably".

 

I'm just not checking my RR until Friday of any given week.

 

I'm just not checking my RR until Monday of next week.
