So, yeah, an HP tax and not interesting, that's just kinda how I feel about them. the way they're weakening you is something you're allowed to interact with, but there's no dispel, either for yourself or the enemy, to let you interact with forced buffs/debuffs. At least with the floating artifacts, or the orb duo in zone 3, etc. "Oh, look, I'm going to mechanically lose 20+ HP because using many defense cards will actually increase the damage I end up taking net."Īgain, not inherently run enders or w/e (Though Ascension 8 makes them even more of a tedious slog), but they're just so. Like, to a degree Cultists are the same thing (sorta) but they're regular enemies, I don't expect all the regular enemies to have some sort of mechanic to make the fight dynamic or w/e, but these are Elites, they shouldn't have the least interseting attack table in the game, and only be "hard" because they're a no defense rush. Because, to a degree, you're not allowed to functionally defend yourself, so it's "Soak damage to the face, try to deal more damage back," and that just doesn't feel good, if that makes any sense? Like, yes, everything in the game is a DPS race, but that's all they are LITERALLY. The dead adventurer has an internal name of "Nopants".I'd say the only reason I could see to change Lagavulin (and to a lesser extent Goblin Nob) is that they're just not.
#LAGAVULIN SLAY THE SPIRE FOR FREE#
Although the odds of getting a lifesaving Relic for free are extremely low, they're better than a guaranteed loss against the Boss. If you can't beat the Elite, but you don't think you can beat the Boss either, you may want to roll the dice anyway. If your deck does not have a reliable damage source outside of normal attacks, this fight will cause you to lose a huge amount health, especially on high ascension levels. The Lagavulin fight spawned from this event is much more deadly than normal, as it does not begin asleep and will immediately use Siphon Soul. If you obtained a Relic from,, consider leaving immediately, as the Elite will only reward you with some gold, card selection, and a score bonus. You might be pleasantly surprised by a free Relic, but you could also be fighting an Elite for it. If you're confident in your deck and you have plenty of HP, prepare for battle and press the button. Ignore the odds - consider the Dead Adventurer Event to be an optional Elite fight, and imagine that you'll fight the Elite 100% of the time you press the button. Keep in mind that there is a chance that might not yield gold or relics. Looks like you searched all his belongings without a hitch!


While searching the adventurer you are caught off guard! Though his possessions are still intact, you're in no mind to find out what happened here.

it looks as though he's been gouged and trampled by a horned beast. the armor and face appear to be scoured by flames. he looks to have been eviscerated and chopped by giant claws. You come across a dead adventurer on the floor. The only exception is Black Star, which has no effect whatsoever in this fight. Relics that triggers on Elites combat - Preserved Insect, Sling of Courage, and Slaver's Collar - also works on Elite combat of this event.
