recently I tried to make some cool combos with new followers and it's annoying that even if you play as best as you can, it's still very hard to find the right things. for example I wanted to implement the dragoon trait and I waited for it for about 20 depths (even with reroll and max faith). I think it would help if there was an option to roll a few times by buying a trinket to roll a few times, you could also make a trinket that makes you always see more things in the store. a higher faith limit would also be useful because by managing it properly you could collect it for later and also roll more times while still having the funds to buy the most expensive things
Hmmm. May I ask if you are having trouble finding Dragoon or finding Fractured Aspect? If it's fractured, is it in the latest v15.9 build or before? We made some spawn rate changes for fractured specifically to make fracturing in Endless Mode easier (like 9 times easier), but don't know if it's enough or not.
If it's Dragoon, would you say a factor is that if you don't have 20 faith going into the shop, spending 2 faith to reroll will make you not being able to get dragoon anymore?
Yeah, i saw fractured aspect few times and i think its good that there is bigger chance to find it. I meant thats not a problem with specific follower but its overall very hard if u have combination in mind and you try to find necesary things. You must rely on luck even if u have very good economy and followers. I just think it will be good that if you are playing very good you can do everything. Now if you want to do specific combinations you must just restart and pray for good rng.
Ah I got it. Yes I agree that there's a problem with finding a very specific follower needed for a build. Although I don't want players to have an easy way to get whatever they want, it's reasonable that they should have opportunity to spend resources to search for it. One of the ideas we have not implemented yet is to have a trinket/curio event that force the next recruit to be of a specific type of follower, or followers that have not been encountered in this run. But like more things to mitigate rng is definitely on the agenda
I also saw that prices of difrent things are more various.you could then do it like this, if you have the perfect amount of faith there is a very high chance that you will get a follower with exactly the same price. it would then be possible to search for the things you need by properly controlling the amount of faith. for example, if you want to get a familiar you would try to have exactly 14 faith
Currently cards already have a 50% weighting boost if the difference between your faith and their cost is <=3. I don't know if I want to boost to be even higher than 50% tho, since that could result in you always getting followers that cost exactly all your faith, making you unable to save up and make your decisions less varied
