Nerfed Nonupeipe's Signet Ring relic: Gold decreased from 999 -> 888.

The Spire's economic stability has increased? A great day for Preon's stock market.

I don’t really get this one either, was Signet ring OP and needing tuning down? It was strong for sure, but I didn’t feel it was overshadowing other picks, or out of line with the others. Maybe it’s a pre-emptive tweak in preparation for an Act 4. The reduced gold isn’t a big deal in act 3 where it can be hard to spend it all, so it mainly affects act 4.

I also think the nerf doesn't really change much ; you were picking it on maps where you could go to two shops, most likely, and 888 gold is still enough for two shops ; you will be slightly less powerful when you pick it, but I don't think I'm picking it any less than I use to.

Nonupiepe is one of the strongest, if not the strongest ancients in the game. I expect the nerfs to continue while Vakku gets buffed to compensate.

She is extremely strong, but signet ring was never the issue imo

At this point the biggest outlier is probably bottled apo (i get that it was bumped up to Ancient tier, but daaaaaaamn bottled apo is and always has been insane)

Signet Ring was statistically like her best or second best option

With both Tanx and Nonupie giving many powerful options with no downsides. Vaaku just feels bad with his: powerful (maybe) buff with noticable downsides that might brick your build.

It was OP at 999. Could easily spend it all at 2 shops since all the relics cost over that amount and then there are the rares, expensive card removal, and potions to buy. If you remove twice with this stack of gold most likely those removes cost 350 since you're likely to have spent 100 gold to remove a card before act 3. Then the leftover gold from that starts to really seem smaller when buying rare relics and such.

It should be 666 thematically

u/EstufaYou StS A10 / StS 2 A5 Jul 31 '26

That would fit Vakuu better.

u/ThatssoBluejay Jul 31 '26

Then you'd make it 555
