The Delver

Description
INTRODUCTION
The Delver, a creature of unknown origin, has reached the spire in search of new power. They make use of the the discard pile and deck manipulation, different card types, and lost items to claim victory over their opponents. This mod includes:
  • 70+ Cards
  • 9 Relics
  • 3 Potions.
  • Original Character design, Splash arts, and Character model.

This, like all character mods, requires ModTheSpire, StsLib, and BaseMod to run. Make sure you are subscribed to those mods as well!

If you are a magic the gathering player like me and your favourite colours are Blue Black and Green this is the mod for you!

MECHANICS
Dredge: Cards are put directly from your draw pile into your discard pile. Use this to enable synergies and set up powerful combos.

Salvage: Cards with the Salvage ability are played automatically for free when they are Dredged.

Reclaim: Cards with reclaim are returned to your hand from your discard pile at the beginning of your turn and gain Ethereal and Exhaust. You can then play them for their Reclaim cost (as the energy cost) and reclaim effect.

Essence & Consume: Cards and relics can give you Essence which is used to empower cards with Consume. When you play a card with consume you use up essence equal to the consume number if you have enough for a more powerful effect!

Lost Items: These are items left behind by citizens or creatures of the spire.
The delver makes use of these and finds one at the beginning of each combat.

THANKS
Splash art and character model by Addo Check out his website here! https://www.cutitoutstudios.com/
Special Thanks to Greengiant for some custom card art and help with playtesting, and everyone at #moddingTechnical channel in the slay the spire discord for their incredibly valuable help.


This is my first mod and first coding project I hope you ~enjoy!~

If you like the character please drop a like .

really cool, recommend trying it out

Would be cool if there were some added achievements in the Statistics for this character. IE Dredge 20 cards in one turn, kill a boss with only lost items, or reclaim 3 cards for 3 consecutive turns. Just fun extra challenges. Another thing I noticed is this character doesn't have any cards that needs unlocked through the exp thing like the base characters. If you do add the latter it would be wise to have an option to unlock this characters stuff in the mod config. Regardless it's a unique and fun character.

A friend and I are really enjoying this mod, however we noticed that when a card is reclaimed for 0 when snecko eye is in play, the cost shows up as 0, but it still costs energy if snecko had randomized it to anything but 0. I assume this is an oversight so I wanted to bring it to your attention.

Still plays fine. Still does odd stuff when nether form is in play. It looks like it fails to play upgraded strikes sometimes if you aoe a single leftover enemy.

Meanwhile, it occurred to me that the keyword consume could probably just have flare's essence generating effect by default. Maybe that'd allow you to tweak cards with consume and/or essence and buff the starter relic a wee bit.

Massive update just dropped! Check it out! :undyne:

Lots of crashes when accessing the discard pile. Maybe because of the power that adds reclaim cards to discard. Otherwise fun mod if a little too powerful. (careful with the 0 cost cards that give a bit of value, real easy to loop and abuse)

Forgot to mention that pulling that one x-cost attack (4 damage, 4 block, upgrade too good by 1 point btw :lunar2019piginablanket: ) with nether form pulls yet another attack because the game probably thinks you're spending energy on it when it plays itself.

Edit:
Reincarnation gets around the 10-card hand size limit. At least it seems that way cuz it's the last effect that happened that turn. https://i.imgur.com/aIP2HPs.png

Thanks for your feedback! I have fixed some of the minor issues you've addressed and should be patched shortly. As far as some of the other things are concerned.
Nether Form only works off non power cards that cost 1 or more so that might be where you are confused.
And yes cards that make lost items and don't exhaust do not make healing or gold cards at all.

Quaint chonky pyramid head.

Dredge and salvage are quite unique. Reclaim is fun too but tends to be overtuned. Essence and consume are fine but sorta feel like they exist for the sake of having another resource that doesn't do anything super exciting, so having more things that interact with essence besides consuming it would make it more memorable.

There are some oversights like missing words on flare+ or reclaim number on shadow lash, drain doesn't seem to proc salvage if it shuffles card piles before dredging more, I wasn't paying enough attention to check if stalling for 999 gold and hp was possible with lost items but it shouldn't be, and nether form would sometimes do nothing even though it didn't hit ambush or anything unplayable, but overall the first impression was good.

Even the minor mechanical themes and aesthetics go hand in hand. Solid stuff.
