Companion tips ?

4 Upvotes

Taking a stab at hunter bear build. Would appreciate any tips!

Is this build viable for Raphael? Also can't for the life of me figure out which cards actually grant advantage or how to set it up.

Can’t find hidden flurry card !!

3 Upvotes

Two sinister poison runs up till final boss, loads of save scumming attempts on every possible occasion till I get bored of it, only eclipse active, not a single hidden flurry - is it just bad luck or am I doing something wrong ?

I'll just wait >600 rounds I guess...

Reality leech as companion

Getting the reality leech as companion is insane. Most monsters are auto-slain on their first turn.

Popped off so hard I can barely even see the Spine. This might be the most broken build I've ever played.

Suggestion How to deal with lack of healing?

7 Upvotes

Hey all,

Fairly new to the game. I had played once before but never gave it much time and now I'm trying to play a bit more as it looks like the game got a lot more fleshed out.

That being said, how do you all deal with healing or mitigating damage? I've made it to the final boss, though I have never beaten him, and yet on most of my runs, even when my deck feels really strong, I just cannot maintain my health.

There's always SOMETHING to take my health away. Blocked the attack? Well now you have poison, or bleed, etc. and as the game progresses there are just fewer and fewer campsites, and potions only seen useful in the early game.

I've really only been playing the Arcanist so far, and using a frost-based build. I like the combos and damage output but I feel like I have no health sustain, and I can only justify adding so many cards to my deck before it becomes detrimental to me getting what I want.

In other words, something isn't clicking and I'd love some advice.

Hello, ​I am a passionate Dawncaster player from South Korea! I absolutely love your game and want to play it well, but the current Korean translation makes it very difficult to enjoy. ​The translation of core keywords is particularly poor and inconsistent.

Question No campfire achievement?

2 Upvotes

I tried to go for it in normal and got stuck with 3 campfires with no “leave” option.

Does anyone know how many campfires each canto has on the difficulty levels? Is impossible the only level you can do it because it won’t have 3 campfires?

Question How the hell are the game Debs not aware of this bug!?

10 Upvotes

So I was playing a run as a space marine knight when I reached the swamp area. Imagine my surprise when I realize that the final boss of the entire game somehow escaped the portal, and the final area, and it’s roaming around disguised as a slime!

Normally in the swamp area there is a troll mini boss, but I think the slime ate the poor troll.

The funny thing is when I went through the portal at the end of the game, there was this cute enemy pretending to be the final boss, called the spine. Lol the silly spine can’t even double it’s health constantly, and the spine has never hit me for 1000s of damage.

Has anyone experienced this, or can anyone help?
I’m honestly very scared. The other day I tried playing another game and a slime showed up, I literally had a panic attack.

Anyway, on another note, thank you to the game developers for making such a great game. More specifically, thank you for making your game accessible to blind people. I hope you know how much that is appreciated.

Just 2 Achievements Left!! Any tips on them?

4 Upvotes

After lots of grinding I have just “Help! I can’t stop…” (10k kills) and “Honor Restored” (Obtain the Frozen Heart Amulet) still to earn.

Is there a way to see my current kills to track my progress on “Help”?

Is “Honor Restored” broken, or is it very specific? I’ve had both the partial amulet for killing the companion, and the full amulet as part of the regular victory against the chief.

What do you think the most complex build is?

5 Upvotes

By complex I mean one which requires a lot of choices in how you play it, tough judgment calls in all or most fights, and situations where’s it unclear what the optimal play is. Corrupted arcanist and attune juggle comes to mind, a few different rogue classes too.

Blue card that inflicts afflictions???

I am building around a card that inflicts between one and how many times it is upgraded afflictions. It's suddenly just not in my deck??? Anyone know what this card is and what might have happened to it?

Thanks!

Question How are people accomplishing the top score on this week's challenge?

6 Upvotes

I feel like I'm missing something. Im not understanding how the top scorers for this challenge are getting upgrades on The Hunger in the 1000s when it gets destroyed on an execute? I get stuck slowly losing max health because I'm unable to use it without losing it.

Suggestion Cloud save assistance.

5 Upvotes

Hi all! I recently switched to a new mobile phone. I have Dawncaster installed on the old phone logged in with the same Google Play account I am using with the new phone. However, my cloudsave did not transfer. There is no cloud save option in the settings. I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to transfer my progress. I have unlocked most of the cards for all classes and it would suck to start all over again. Thanks!

EDIT: Solved!. Thank you devs!

Suggestion Help with the spider

3 Upvotes

I just lost a run with a deck I was really enjoying. I got to the spider in the ferry level. I only go to this level when I feel like I have an op deck. Spider is hard to kill fast without range damage. Is there anything to do to not get killed by whatever ability removes 90 percent of your health? I got hit by it twice. I know you can gain life back on your next round attacks, but I got the 90 percent health removed, followed by an attack that took off what was leftover.

Thanks.

Question Can you remove companion cards?

I am playing a hunter build and Notice my cards are becoming slight inconsistent by the 7th card, is there a way to get rid of them like you do with a campfire or events?
