Eredan's World

Hi,

As a relatively new player I encountered some stuff that I figured out only a lot later and by experience. It would be good if they could be explained a bit more carefully for starters. As an example creating a rulebook would be wonderful! Though I guess a small guide or FAQ could do as well.

What I mean:
1. It was not clear to me in the first weeks what the term "order bonus "actually means. Maybe you should add the word turn before it (turn order bonus), this way I think it is more clearer. Regardless even in its old form it would be cool if we could look up  at least the definition somewhere. What I mean here is that I did use the cards order bonus I just did not know it is called order bonus.

2. It was absolutely not clear to me why can I chain up cards when it is not marked as a chain in the description. Later I figured out that pure mages can chain spells (then I realized they cant chain aoe). I know these are simple things for veteran players and you can figure them out, but it would be good again if new players could be informed.

3. Sometimes races can use cards that are not in their classes. Example: cutting all ties can be used by a nehantic guamelite that has no mage class, even that the card gives absolutely no clue about it, on the contrary it has a mage class icon on it. Figuring these out by myself was a great challange, because nothing even mentions it.

4. If mages cast a damaging spell and do not have any other class they will not attack. Now this is a VERY common mistake in lower lvl rooms, because you cannot look it up. Just go there and watch them play lightning bolt and then a than the sword for example. I know they do and I had to do the same a few times as well until I figured out why is he attacking or why not at all.

Thats all I came up with so far (as I remember). Hope it will be useful feedback.

*EDIT:
5. I still have no clue what "initative" is I saw +1 and +2 on the cards but I noticed no difference. It should affect who hits first i na fight or something?

Hi,

I would like to share with you my current deck, I find it very effective, but suggestions are welcome:

[card]The Shadow, Lady of the Nehant[/card]
[card]Anagram[/card] (guamelite version)
[card]Hate[/card]

[card]Dark fury[/card] x3
[card]It's all fun and games...[/card] x3
[card]...until someone gets hurt[/card] x3
[card]Cutting all ties[/card] x3
[card]Extinction[/card] x1
[card]Anathematize [/card] x1
[card]Assassination[/card] x1
[card]Nehant's Seal[/card] x3
[card]Skyward boots[/card] x2

The idea and way:

Hate limits the handsize of you and the enemy to 4 (all the times 'till she dies).
When The Shadow's ability kicks in it removes 2 more cards from the enemy's hand so I found skyward very useful on her (I added 2 for the better chances to show up, I tend to discard if 2 of them comes into my hand).
With the previously mentioned abilites, all fun and games, someone gets hurt and cutting ties I can give the opponent a very hard time to land his combo (sometimes even completely shutting him down) while causing direct damage.

The characters in this deck has insanely high damage potential on their own even if I cannot boost their attack (because I focus on shutdown). In the last moment a well placed dark fury combo can kill off almost anyone, even if things go badly, though I sometimes use them up early if I need a chain and have no other options.

Because Hate limits me as well and I do not use a pure mage I included a lot of chain abilites that makes the deckflow faster. Regardless I tend to discard if I happen to get a bad draw.

I added Anathematize and Extintion, because with 1-1 of these cards I can seriously mess up some combos (that otherwise quite deadly if not countered).

Oppinions?
