I cannot fully express to you the elation I felt when I found the mind blast event and upgraded my entire 40 card deck in one fell swoop (with a bunch of unupgraded apparitions mind you) The run despite seemingly being hard countered by time keeper - went on to beat the heart
I wish secret portal gave you the campfire key and if you're before the chest the chest key. You get them for skipping a campfire/chest and this event makes you skip them. Since I like to go for heart kills this is basically a dead event for me, I might actually jump in sometimes if it didn't kill my run.
One thing to note with the Mindbloom Act 1 bossfight is that the regular attack pattern of Hexaghost still applies. So if you're max health - or have high max health as Clad through Feed - Ghost can do a ton of damage bc of the Divider attack (H*6 damage. H = (Current HP divided by 12) + 1) on turn 2. Most of the time you'll be able to deal with it, but it's something to take into account if you have high (max) health.
This just me trying to guess from what I saw when modding the game: Rooms function with Phases. Only during the Combat phase are things like enemies and cards dealt with, and only when the phase is Complete can you leave the room. Then, there's screens, the relevant ones here being the combat reward screen and the card selection screen. The screen that was open before the one that is currently open is stored to be reopened when the open screen is closed. Here, Baalor had the combat reward screen opened in the room, after the orb walker fight. Then, with the commands, opened events, which ignore this screen system. The reward screen was stored as the previous screen then. Most event don't cause a problem then, because they never go back to the previous screen. But the Mind Bloom event started another combat, and then Baalor played a card that opens the card selection screen, which when closed, reopens the previous screen, which was still the combat reward screen. But the room phase was still combat, which is why he was stuck and had cards rendered in front of the UI when trying to get to another event.
@@Kenshi876 Here's a guess. If you look closely, the card that is 'removed' from the deck is exhume+ (It plays the animation without actually removing the card from the deck). Exhume+ happens to be the card that was selected in the last screen where baalor needed to select a card, in the Guardian fight with headbutt. So since we're currently in a shop the game tried to figure out what action you could take in a shop that would need you to select a card from deck and decided that it must be card removal.
@@SabyasachiGhosh1618 I looked at the code, that's almost exactly it. The shop is always checking the card that was last selected in a card selection screen to remove it from the deck, without caring if the screen was open for the removal or not. Usually, this "card last selected" is cleared after the effect that used the screen did its thing, but since the headbutt was interrupted by the reward screen being opened, it wasn't cleared. So, when the shop checked if a card was selected, it found one and removed it from the deck. You could say "wait, we can see that the exhume is still in the deck", but that's because the cards you use during combat and the cards in your deck aren't the same instances, so the shop tried removing an instance of exhume+ that wasn't actually in the decck
I just won a run by juzu bracelet plus take only 2 fights the whole act as a last ditch effort to scale fast enough with demon form to block with my face to what I thought was a loss to donu deca and I won. So that's cool
39:27 I went here to see if I should do the portal or not, decided to pass it up right before you said this, and then immediately died to giant head in the next room when I probably could have taken on The Awakened One just fine. Bro is a prophet. Next time prophecy me winning the fight.
I just remembered a question. When using the Deadlier Events modifier, the one that allows elites to pop up in events. What's the chance of them showing up?
@Mr Thirty Normally, you are correct. But if you go to the modifiers (unlocked after dailies are unlocked), there is an option that lets them spawn in question mark rooms. It is even a daily modifier sometimes.
Baalorlord I love your videos, thanks to your tips I'm almost platinum the game on PlayStation 4, I already got all the unique character achievements with the exception of the ironclad one to use feed the boss donut, I already killed the heart with all the characters and I even managed complete a run without relics
Thanks for the tips! One quick question, Im trying to complete the only 1 relic achievement and came across the "Mind Bloom" event Are you FORCED to take the rare relic if you fight the act 1 Boss? Can you skip it? Most of my deck is upgraded thats to "Leasson Learned" There are no more shops available Yeah... lol
So I once was doing "Speed climber" and was at a time of 15min into act 3, I gave up but still coninued, got portal on floor 2 xdxd Also moai head is definitely rares that other events, I've noticed that too, maybe in the code it has the rarity of a shrime idk
I do not like act 3 events A lot of them are just skip, destroying a run or too risky And only Sensory stone is good in my opinion but sometimes they can save a run I prefer act 3 fights more than events
@@etiennechaplais1764 upgrading all cards sounds good, but no healing can destroy a run Full healing usually doesn't useful, because you have camps and curse can be very annoying 999 gold are good, but only if you can get 2 shops, because these curses are very dangerous act 1 bossfight is good, but hexaghost can deal a lot of damage or even kill you I think this event is too random and I like usual fights in act 3 but I don't force you to play like me. If your playstyle wins runs, won't change it
Dude this is my favorite kind of content from you. I love the videos of your runs, but the tier lists/ informative/ how to/ in depth explanation videos are by far my favorite.
27:10 You don't see the Moai Head as often because it has a condition: either the relic or under half HP.
can't wait for every act 4 event explained thanks for the content Baalor
Ah yes, my favourite act 4 event is uhh...
*Death.*
The main events are poking, bashing, and dying to beat of death
😂😂😂
Don't forget the one where you pass out because you forgot the red key getting upgrades last minute

It could maybe even give you only 2/3 keys so you can still take it if you've at least picked up one key at some point before in the run
The only time I used that portal was for the speedrun achievement
14:55, that's for me the best music in the game.

Thanks for doing this for us. We appreciate you
Also if you have toxic egg, embracing madness is definitely a better option than normal since madness+ costs 0
Thanks for making this baalorlord! Really like your guidey content
Orb walkers doing push-ups 😂😂
One thing to note for falling (or any removal) I believe you can’t lose bottled cards
the audio peaks for me sometimes not sure if its my headset or not, dont hear it when watching your stream or other vids

@@skyshadow6617 oh damn I had no idea! I don't do many dailys. Thanks!
If you're playing endless, get Upgrade all cards then at the next cycle, get the N'loth Event, can you regain the ability to heal?
N'loth can't appear in act 3

Are you FORCED to take the rare relic if you fight the act 1 Boss? Can you skip it?
Most of my deck is upgraded thats to "Leasson Learned"
There are no more shops available
Yeah... lol
You can skip it
Amazing, thank you!
How does the head event work with the blood idol
But that's the thing
It doesn't
Can Ranwed take your no-healing relic from the mind bloom event, or is it excluded?
ranwid doesn't take relics, you're thinking of nloth, which is act 2 only.
ranwid is: card, potion or gold
You're doing the lord's work!
4:39 sorry, from my what now?
No fr 😂
There we go!
some great info
I'm so confused as to why you only have two potion slots in this.
It's part of the ascension penalties. One of them removes one potion slot for added challenge.
@@Link6817 Thanks for explaining. You can tell I'm not very good at the game based on the question. Lol
At least 30 seconds and 20 minutes for the Portal? What am I misunderstanding?
He misspoke, it's 13 minutes 20 seconds.
@David Guild thank you. I was trying to figure it out.
Even in the perfect siutation for mindbloon gold (i am already winning) only one shop and nothing useful :DDDDDD
So I once was doing "Speed climber" and was at a time of 15min into act 3, I gave up but still coninued, got portal on floor 2 xdxd
Also moai head is definitely rares that other events, I've noticed that too, maybe in the code it has the rarity of a shrime idk
The reason why it's rare is that it has a condition to spawn. Either you are under half health, or you have the golden idol
Secret portal is such a dead event for me i hate it
is it me or is the audio funky just a hair
I do not like act 3 events
A lot of them are just skip, destroying a run or too risky
And only Sensory stone is good in my opinion
but sometimes they can save a run
I prefer act 3 fights more than events
Mind bloom isn't good ?
Alright but
