Slaver Queen minor rebalance (Patreon)
Content
It's only a small change, but it's going to make a huge difference to Slaver Queen's fight. As part of 1.81 the way she chooses targets for her decree abilities is going to change.
How it worked previously:
Slaver Queen chooses to use one of her 'Decree' skills
Every party member is afflicted with a decree debuff, that locks abilities or movement depending on the decree used.
How it will work from 1.81 onwards:
Slaver Queen chooses to use one of her 'Decree' skills
One random party member is afflicted with a decree buff
A dice is rolled, and there is a percentage chance for a second heroine to be affected (Apprentice: 40%, Veteran 50%, Champion 60%)
A dice is rolled, and there is a percentage chance for a third heroine to be affected (Apprentice: 40%, Veteran 50%, Champion 60%)
A dice is rolled, and there is a percentage chance for a fourth heroine to be affected (Apprentice: 40%, Veteran 50%, Champion 60%)
Anywhere from 1 to 4 heroines is afflicted with a decree debuff, that locks abilities or movement depending on the decree used.
Here's how that shakes out, mathematically:
Apprentice difficulty: 1 target (100%), 2 targets (40%), 3 targets (16%), 4 targets (6.4%).
Veteran difficulty: 1 target (100%), 2 targets (50%), 3 targets (25%), 4 targets (12.5%).
Champion difficulty: 1 target (100%), 2 targets (60%), 3 targets (36%), 4 targets (21.6%).
As you can see, the odds of having your entire party affected by the Slaver Queen's decree are significantly reduced. That doesn't mean you won't get unlucky, though - it could still randomly choose a heroine you'd prefer not to have debuffed! 😉
Let me know what you think!
