Minor update guys!
Ninja Puppy  [author] 10 Nov, 2024 @ 8:27pm 
If anyone was annoyed by the Devil's Advocate multihit delay, rejoice, for it is fixed.

@dvide Thank you! :)
My mod I'm working on releasing is basically updated Pokemon Low Health but it has custom low health music, you can add more if you want, adjust the volume relative to the music volume, preview the low health music, and turn it off if you want but it will still apply the patch that fixes Elite music in all Elite fights. :)

Nice one! Love the mod.

@dvide
The newest patch should fix the issue! Sorry for the delay, was working on another big project and got a little sick.

@dvide
Thank you for letting me know! I'll work on fixing that.

"Bug Fix: Dog's Day was causing a crash in the relic compendium because it was trying to pulse/flash outside of combat. That has been fixed."

This still can happen on the latest version after you finish a run and then visit the relic compendium.

I am working to get some more relics added, I have a small suggestion for you!

Making a relic pack is not that crazy hard, I would recommend checking out the Slay the Spire Discord Modding-Technical channel. We love having new people get into modding!

It's really not that crazy as long as you're willing to take some time to understand what you're doing.

Seriously, a lot of relic modding can be as simple as copy and paste then tweak some numbers!
Bento Baker Praymordis 22 Aug, 2024 @ 11:42pm 
had some ideas for character specific boss relics.

pen of dark contracts (ironclad boss relic): at the start of combat add an upgraded offering to your hand with retain, whenever you play an offering heal 4 hp, healing applies after taking the damage.

card tosser mk3 (silent boss relic): at the start of combat add an upgraded reflex and upgraded tactician to your hand, once per turn right click this relic to discard all cards with the unplayable keyword from your hand.

Overcharged transformer (defect boss relic): at the start of combat add a 0 cost upgraded capacitor to your hand, every 4 turns gain 4 focus.

Anger management book (watcher boss relic): at the start of combat add a 0 cost upgraded rushdown to your hand, if you end your turn in wrath with any enemy performing an attack intent exit wrath when the enemy's turn starts.

@C?#e: "beYond"
I adjusted it to be 4 per ? Room.

Also, Ninja Puppy's Mask now applies 3x1 instead of 1x2, this should shred artifact.
C?#e: "beYond" 12 Aug, 2024 @ 1:45am 
Yeah +6 per ? floor is too much, but +4 is better in that case. I'm just wondering how often you'll realistically visit ? floors per act compared to bonuses from other relics (you can often visit shops at least 2 times per act even if you have no money it's always a free heal + I don't think that resting by the fire with the Regal Pillow is "missing another opportunity" since if you have 10-20 HP then the next fight will most likely be fatal (especially on high ascension levels) and probably upgrading one card (digging with the Shovel or removing a card with the Pipe, etc.) won't save you.

2 Constrict to a random enemy is an artifact burner as well but constrict also doesn't go down. While it does trigger *after* the enemy's turn, I could probably raise the amount or have it apply multiple times to increase the artifact burn?

Or maybe after 2 attacks or something. I will have to think about it. Appreciate you giving it a try!

Thank you for the compliment! I hope it can continue to be fun for everyone. Don't forget to right click a relic once and a while.
Ninja Puppy  [author] 11 Aug, 2024 @ 12:56pm 
@C?#e: "beYond" I bet it was because it counted Sentry as an "Elite" enemy. I'll have to build a check in either for after act 2 or if there's different enemies or such. Like, I bet it doesn't count the Slaver Duo as "an elite fight" even though it kind of is...?

As for Hang In There, it used to heal 6 per ? room but people said it was too strong for a common. Blood Vial is 2 per combat. Meal ticket is 15 per shop (Which are less common to repeat). Regal Pillow is 15 extra on rest (which means you give up your other action at a rest site). I could see about bumping it up to 4 but going to 5 is going to get some backlash of balance unless I can test it more.

C?#e: "beYond" 11 Aug, 2024 @ 12:29pm 
Also, about the Hang In There & Ninja Puppy's Mask relics. +3 HP for every ? floor feels too insignificant especially compared to similar relics (Blood Vial, Meal Ticket, Regal Pillow). Maybe +5 or +6? And I'm not even sure what's the point of the "2 Constrict to a random enemy" effect. Like, the effect is too demanding and slow to bring any noticeable benefit. It's like infinite poison yeah, but when you stack it enough the fight will most likely be over (and not thanks to this relic). Even for burning through enemy's artifact charges, it's still a very weak effect.
C?#e: "beYond" 11 Aug, 2024 @ 5:22am 
Tough Cookie healed my buss in a non-elite fight. It was an act II fight against a Sentry and Spheric Guardian. BTW, amazing mod and relics!

@Cappuccino The pirate can only yar in combat. I'm sorry! But the thumbs up seems to approve.

@Bento Baker Praymordis
Oh trust me, I know. I still have to slightly nerf some of my stuff I'm pretty sure. I got into many, many a debate about how OP my stuff was originally. Sometimes, it's hard to tell how strong something is without testing it.

Most people said Cat's Pajamas was fine, but after testing it a bit more, I found that in Act 3 you're basically always full health from it.
Bento Baker Praymordis 7 Aug, 2024 @ 1:30am 
feel free to change the values or tweak the effects of my relic suggestions to what you see fit for your mod to use, at the end of the day I sometimes overlook the balance of my relic suggestions in favour of being something that the base game doesn't have and or fun to use.
Ninja Puppy  [author] 6 Aug, 2024 @ 10:30am 
@Bento Baker Praymordis I just got back from being out of state and I was looking over your suggestions. Most of them are *really* strong as is but I feel like they could be tweaked in a way to bring them a bit more in line :)
Bento Baker Praymordis 4 Aug, 2024 @ 2:25am 
well here's a few relic idea's that I got to share.

recalling stick (boss relic): at the start of combat add a seek and 0 cost hologram to your hand, both of them are upgraded and have retain.

watering can (uncommon relic): upon pickup gain 1 potion slot, when entering a shop or campfire with at least 1 empty potion slot, fill 1 empty potion slot with a swift potion.

portable skateboard (rare relic): at the start of combat gain 3 dexterity and 3 blur.

safety scissors (common relic): whenever you add an attack to your deck remove a starter strike from your deck. this effect is retroactive.

scroll of self defence (shop relic): upon pickup remove all defends, afterwards you can then choose to add up to 5 copies of shrug it off to your deck.

@Bento Baker Praymordis
Sure, I made a bunch of idiom based ones cause it was funny. If you have suggestions, we could discuss it further. Slay the Spire discord also has a modding channel that I and other modders hang out in and talk ideas and code.

As for Money Bush, you are correct.
If you pick it up on floor 15, you get gold for all 15 floors. I like to imagine it like the money bush is growing the whole time so if you pick up later, you still get value out of it.
Bento Baker Praymordis 3 Aug, 2024 @ 10:25pm 
I got 2 questions to ask. firstly can I make suggestions for relics I'd like to see added in a future update for this mod. and secondly when money bush says this benefit is retroactive, does it mean it also gives 5 gold per floor you've already climbed prior to obtaining it?
Ninja Puppy  [author] 31 Jul, 2024 @ 7:11pm 
Good luck in endless! I've never tried it :)
pgames-food 31 Jul, 2024 @ 6:13pm 
but they all sound good :lunar2019piginablanket:
pgames-food 31 Jul, 2024 @ 6:13pm

Ninja Puppy  [author] 31 Jul, 2024 @ 5:49pm 
@pgames-food Happy to share! I hope you enjoy them!
Let me know if there's any issues and I will try to address them asap.

I am out of state until Tuesday but I am trying to see if I can pull it from the cloud to fix anything.
pgames-food 31 Jul, 2024 @ 5:30pm 
thanks for more relics :)
Ninja Puppy  [author] 31 Jul, 2024 @ 3:59am 
@reswaut Fix has been applied, saw it last night but it was too late to fix it last night.
reswaut 30 Jul, 2024 @ 11:04pm 
Game crashes when opening Relic Collection. I believe you are missing an isInARun check in UnturnedStone.update?
Ninja Puppy  [author] 30 Jul, 2024 @ 5:48pm 
Alright, I updated some rarities, values, and such after consulting with some people who are *much* better at balancing than me. Some nerfs, some buffs, some adjustments but mostly the same stuff. Hopefully people will enjoy the changes overall!
Ninja Puppy  [author] 30 Jul, 2024 @ 10:34am 
@idiot5k

I have been bouncing around on balance options. I went with 6 based on Ironclad's relic but for ? Instead of combat. I thought the ? Rooms would be less common of a choice for people. I could cut the heal to 3 or raise the rarity. I will do a bit of testing.
idiot5k 30 Jul, 2024 @ 6:50am 
i feel like you should have a second look at the rarity of these relics. some of them are extremely powerfull and should be boss relics (for example hang in there. there are many ? rooms you can run into and you can easily heal back to full with this one)
