    I place Battefield specifically next to heavy monster infested tiles, so i get more chances for getting the ghost effect. The ghost effect can trigger 3 times. At the third time, you fight against "Prime Matter" Which has a 33% chance of dropping gold cards, like the crypt, which is huge benifical. Downside is, you have to hit 3 20% rolls to get the enemy and hit a 33% roll after it, so giving you a 1 in 379 chance to achieve this. very rare, very rng heavy.

    The thing about Loop hero is that organizing stuff is important. Don't just randomly place tiles, group things together and set them up to maximize the benefit. This is especially important when using river cards.
    You also want to limit the cards you're using as much as you can. Go with as few as the game will allow in most situations.
    Outside of getting specific spawns early on to get resources to unlock the alchemy tent and just to fill out encyclopedia entries, there's no reason to spawn most enemies. Even things like treasuries are generally not worth it due to the annoying enemy spawns.
    Wrap your river around tiles to get multiple bonuses from the same tiles. Don't turn your rivers into reeds or oasis tiles. They are most useful for boosting other tiles and don't do so unless they remain a regular river. You basically want to surround your river with thickets in general.
    Having burning forest cards by the river is also a good idea. Place two storm temples on opposite corners of the map, maybe having one a tile row lower so you can pass the river without making reeds.
    Flat HP bonuses are essentially worthless outside of the very early game. Don't bother with mountains or rivers. Just place forest tiles.
    Unlock the Alchemy tent as soon as you can. It means you don't need specific cards or spawns to get specific resources anymore. You can just gather bulk materials from spiders or other weak enemies with high spawn rates.
    Ancestral Crypt once you unlock it there is little reason to use any other gold card. Arsenal might be worth it for Rouge due to the magic shield, but honestly Ancestral Crypt's bonus easily outclasses it in late game. Once you unlock it, you should be placing groves, they are the easiest enemies with souls to kill and spawn at a faster rate than other enemies of that type. Ravaged Villages also spawn lots of enemies with souls, but unfortunately they only do so temporarily, and simply become an annoyance after that.
    Thieves are also not worth it, because they can steal your equipped gear on occasion. This can severely screw up a build and end a run. The flat healing villages give isn't really worth placing them.
    Also, use oblivion cards to get rid of spawns like fake villages or goblin camps. Neither is worth the hassle of dealing with.
    You don't need to hoard oblivion cards as you can block the boss city spawns by placing cards around your campfire. It's a good idea to have at least one card you can place along the roadside just for this purpose.
    Finally, use supplies. Mostly furniture and tools. Food is pretty worthless overall. Count's Chairs are especially overpowered if you get several. Remember a percentage bonus is far better than a flat increase. You'll eventually out-scale a flat increase, but a percentage will always be relevant because it scales with you.
    Your basic loadout for most of the game would be something like grove, village [just because of the required number of cards], spider pods, battlefields, river and forest/thicket, oblivion, ancestral crypt, and something that you can place just off the road like time crystals or outposts.
    Also, placing outposts so that their influence covers the camp gives you help in the boss fight.
    You can add a couple of other cards depending on class, but want to keep that minimal. Maybe adding time crystals [mostly to improve grove spawns to feed the HP buff from ancestral crypt], outposts, or that sort of thing to complement your class and goals, but generally you don't want anywhere near the max number of cards you can have in your deck.

    The forest village is the safest place for necromancers since the forest men only counter attack. The skeletons get taken out, but you take almost no damage and this is even better if you have the sacrifice trait where your dead skeletons heal you. Also, the living armor is really vulnerable to multiple small hits. Try to have them spawn by camp. With necromancers, this is even more effective.

    You mentioned saving Oblivions to destroy the Lich Palace's, but it is much easier to just put your own buildings around your campsite to stop them from spawning. (Confirmed to work for the first act)
    Using Oblivion on a *Roadside* tile that is in the middle of spawning a creature (such as a goblin camp) will destroy the spawner and cause a Dark Slime to spawn on that tile the next time you pass it.
    Using Oblivion on your own *Mountain Peaks* is a good way to farm orbs late in the Loop. The Peak will be destroyed but only 1 tile will be missing allowing you to easily remake it (it will immediately create a peak from any valid 3x3 Rock/Mountain groupings if possible).
    River + Battlefield = Shipwreck - Spawns Sirens and continues to act as a battlefield.

    Build villages to goblins villages stop their spawn, surround your village so when you build an even village there is simply no room for the bandits.
    On the village map, the return of investment on farm is kinda long, but you can build several farms in a line. Each farmland can then provide for 3 farms for the first 6 loop. Later, don't be shy to deconstruct a building to perfect their placements. You still get half of the resources back, it's not that bad.

    Other tips that may help players out:
    1. Upgrading the alchemy station allows to synthesize rare resources that can prohibit the progression in this game. Consider this upgrade one of the best to limit grinding.
    2. The worms that a ruin tile can be spawn can run away with low health, try and build a hungry grove next to this tile to prevent them from getting away.
    3. Watchtowers can make fights adjacent to your campfire trivial. However if you place a cemetery or ruins directly after your campfire(1st road tile on your loop) ranged spawns will help the boss during battle and your watchtower buddies will not.
    4. Using an oblivion card at the very beginning of the day will cause the goblin that just spawned to be turned into a dark slime.

    *You can get 2 soldiers to help in the boss fights when using the Outpost, which is great against the Lich, because you delete 2 Lich towers and gives you the advantage os 2 soldiers attacking and being targets to his attacks;
    *No matter what class you use, Attack Speed and evasion are top tier stats;
    *Evasion can only go up to 75%;
    *The Orange/Yellow/Blue item is not always better than the grey one, it only means that has more effects, so be harned that sometimes a gray lv 5 item can be way better than a orange lv 4;
    *Using Oblivion on placed tiles makes the boss spawn progress bar to back up a little, so you can manage when you want to fight him;

      Be extremely careful with Evasion and Attack Speed at high loop counts. Both of them use stamina, so you'll start burning out and getting a 75% debuff to both until you recover from depletion. Your best bet is to mix Oasis tiles in order to reduce your own attack speed as well as the enemies, and keep your attack speed to something shy of +100% by placing a small amount of thickets.

    Best tip I can give you.
    On anyone besides the rogue build a village, then a ruins, then another village. This traps the ruins between two villages so the worms can't fire at you in combat (villages don't spawn enemies).
    Ruins worms drop really good loot, so build a forest next to one and then plop down a blood grove. The worms try to run when killed (40% chance for no loot) the blood grove executes them so they always drop loot. This combo can be chained forever (village, ruins, village, ruins) and it spawns a lot of cards and a lot of high quality items. For extra effect start it near the campfire (village first so the worms dont fire on boss fights) once you have watch towers. The archers will help you kill the worms and it's really easy if you have 4 upgraded watchtowers since they have 4 tile range. If you can handle it you can upgrade the villages with vampire mansions. Really hard fights for 3 loops then it turns into count's land and it's really effective at healing you and gives great quest rewards.

    Towns: they're awesome.
    Dropping a town in front of an enemy spawning building (such as goblin camps) will often nullify it, so long as there aren't any other adjacent tiles where the enemies can spawn. You can also place towns on top of blood paths to get rid of the blood clots.
    Space your towns across the loop. Place some before and/or after difficult fights, depending on how long have you got to get to camp. I often leave the bigger gauntlets for the ending of the loop, and plop a couple of towns before and in-between them so as to not worry too much about the health.
    Towns give you quests, and quests give you rewards, BUT they also mean tougher and longer fights. Be sure to prepare yourself properly, because some enemies, like skeletons, can really make a dent on your health if the fight lengthens too much, specially if the quest enemy is in a group. That's the biggest reason not to put too many towns on your board.
    Having said that, if your build can take on bigger fights, don't worry too much. You won't get that many towns before fighting the boss, and their effect is always good for healing damage.

    Summon quality is a really nice stat to try for when playing necromancer, since it makes high power skeletons or meat shields the enemy has to take out before going after you. Get unseen care ASAP, since it increases magic shield for each skeleton you summon from the time you get the trait onwards. Make sure to compare substats in your gear, you never know when you may have thrown out something with better bonuses than what you have.
    Expandability list:
    Common/Grey: Highly Expendable, better to just let it run out of your inventory unless you're in really early game.
    Rare/Blue: Semi Expendable, useful if it has the substat you need early game, but useless late game, better as materials.
    Yellow: Not Very Expendable, check the substats for more details.
    Orange: Only unequip if it's worth the stats.

    For those playing the Necromancer:
    As far as I've been able to gather, Skeleton Level affects how much HP/Damage the skeletons have/deal, while Summon Quality determines what you can summon at random. A higher Summon Quality may be better early to mid expedition as you normally summon a Friendly Skeleton (basic sword grunt) under ~30%, a Skeleton Warrior (dual claws) at ~40%, and a Skeleton Guard (tank unit with permanent full aggro) at or above ~50%. I haven't seen any other units above that threshold, but I assume a higher Summon Quality rolls the better units first even though it is at random what you summon.
    And not a tip, but a playstyle that tends to work for me:
    When farming Ransacked Villages for Orbs of Expansion, I find it best to place a Blood/Hungry Grove around the village to reduce the amount of damage you need to deal to the 5 units on the field.

    Love your channel! Thanks for posting this video, seems like there are so many things to uncover in this game. I am curious if there is an optimized way to place buildings in the camp/base. I get really nervous being new to this game and making such decisions haha.

      @The 9th Wall ah okay i’ve been experimenting so far. And when putting the vampire houses next to each other on top of using swamps to counter their heals. I ruined a run from having a triple anti heal zone battle. This was before i unlocked villages though.

      @@AdamSmith-hl9vv I stopped using swamps vs vampires because vampires just arent that strong (until later in game maybe).. So i just make ransacked villages instead by placing the vampire mansions next to village tiles and then you make a Grove next to the village and a BloodGrove to cover the ransacked village to stop ghouls from being too strong. Also lamps are great to reduce the monster spawns!

      The super-combo is placing spiders and vampires next to the village, so after the first set of ghouls you get spiders mixed in, which are easier, and also place a blood grove nearby to eat all these enemies and spawn blood golems. Best placement is put village on a corner, spiders and vampires on the outside, grove after the village, with the blood grove on the inside corner. This way after you convert the village into count's lands you get a heal before fighting the blood golems.
      I'm also a big fan of having blood groves next to blood paths(double battlefield), once you've got a good vampirism/damage all equipment set. Also feel free to add spiders and vampires, the more the merrier. You get a ton of loot from this, including some more rare orbs that require killing 5+ enemies in the same fight. Note: be sure you have good survival gear. Next loop you could have blood golems in the mix here too.

    Is there a reason to use the vampire castle to spawn vampires? I'm fairly early on in the game and I've removed them from my card inventory for now. I really don't understand why you'd want to pick one type of monster over another and not just pick the easiest monsters to fight. The only thing I can think of is maybe the tougher monsters drop better loot?

    6:30 They don't touch blue gear, which is frankly the best gear due to how the game generates stats according to rarities. See, it tends to split the potential benefits thinner and thinner with increasing rarity and you end up with mediocre but diverse bonuses if you go for yellow and orange. Blue just gives you the base stat and dumps the rest of the potential benefit into just one additional bonus.

    Rivers can double the effectiveness of a tile for each time the river passes by the tile. While not exponential, the passes beyond the first are twice as good. So, say a Thicket is touching a River. If it's touching one River tile, the attack speed boost doubles from 2% to 4%. If it touches a second River tile, it doubles again to 8%. A third does not double yet again, but brings it up to 12%, for a maximum of 16% if it's surrounded on all 4 sides. So basically, the first touch gives +100% to the effect, and each of the up to 3 additional river touches give an extra, additive +200%.
    After this and lots of math-checking with different kinds of setups, I've settled upon a rule of thumb that lots of wandering in your river's path is optimal for maximum buffs. (Lots of turns, almost exclusively leaving room for tiles where they touch the river twice or more, but generally avoiding having the river touch itself since that wastes space. It's even usually fine for the river to frequently touch the border of the map, to make more room inside for multiple river-touches, partly because avoiding the border means you'll often have wasted spaces there where tiles won't touch the river at all, but also simply because 2x is a lot weaker than ranging from 4x to 8x.) While this does require a lot of river tiles relative to the number of tiles to boost, if you're getting very picky as to what to boost, ie: only putting Thickets adjacent, then it tends to balance out pretty well, anyway. Just toss your lesser tiles by Treasuries.

    Multiple river tiles stack; if a Thicket is adjacent to 2 rivers it wil be 2x2x2 = 8% att speed
    If you have empty bookery + vampire mansion you will get vampire mages
    also temporal beacon + empty bookery spawns temporal mages
