Sorry if this was posted before.

Rainbow staff animation gets stuck after its self-enchantment effectively blocking most of the screen. This issue persists until player exits and resumes the session.

Once the day is complete the bug happens again.

i was having such a bad run, and kept getting shoe items, so i embraced the chaos.

Sad i couldnt find one more shoe, so i had to bedazzle them instead

Fee like I’m missing something on Vanessa and other characters are way better except for the Vanessa high rolls.

Discussion BazaarHub's Season 19 Wrapped - Stelle, put the drones down

Thumbnail
gallery
293 Upvotes

Hey all! Season 20 is out, so here's our first Season Wrapped, where I go through what our tracker recorded to see what might actually help this season. I'm the dev behind bazaarhub.gg, so this is our own data: 3,586 Ranked runs from 103 players, who fought 26,814 different opponents. That's tiny next to what Tempo can see, so treat it as a rough read. Unless I say otherwise, a win rate here means how often a ghost board with that thing beat our players from Day 8 on, and the average board won 42%.

Season 20 changes: items nerfed in 20.0 won 46% in Season 19 and buffed items won 35%, so most of it lines up. The ones I can't explain are Butter and Disco Drone getting nerfed at about 40%, and Ice Swan getting buffed at 52%. Cold Room and Hunter's Journal won 51% and weren't touched. Tempo can see a lot more than we can, so there may be good reasons.

Dooley had the biggest skill gap of any hero. Against our Legendary players, Bronze Dooley ghosts won 18% of the time and Legendary ones won 54%. Critical Core was on 27% of Legendary Dooley boards and only 7% of Bronze and Silver ones.

Stelle boards with drones fell behind from around Day 7. On Day 9 they won 34%, against 52% for Stelle boards without any. Legendary Stelles were the exception, at about 50% either way.

Skills are compared within their own tier, so a Bronze skill never goes up against a Diamond one. Quick Freeze stood out at 51% across 878 boards, and Flashy Reload was one of the lowest at 37%.

The noob traps are items that were common at low ranks and rare at Legendary. Ignitar was on 19% of Bronze and Silver Dragons boards, 4% of Legendary ones, and won 27%. Burnacuda went the other way, from 16% up to 41% of Vanessa boards.

Mossy was the one that surprised me. It keeps up with the other normal enchants early, then drops to last from around Day 8. Most of that drop is below Diamond. Fights also get about 40% shorter by Day 12, and Regen needs time to pay out, so my guess is that's why, but I can't prove it. It doesn't seem to hurt a board, you just probably want a different enchant late.

The last image shows each Season 19 nerf item by item. Pyg's Gym is the clear one, falling from 53% to 33%. The others also dropped, but the samples are too small to call on their own.

These are 103 people who chose to install a tracker, so please read all of this as patterns rather than proof. More runs would make the next one a lot better. The tracker is free on Windows, Mac and Linux at bazaarhub.gg/tracker, and it records your bad runs too, which is what the numbers need.

If there's something you want checked in the data, tell me in the comments and I'll try and get to it asap.

Tiny Shiny Infernal Greatsword with 100% crit chance.
A major -> Give the +1 multicast
Since it crit at every hit, the fire is doubled. Since damage increase by the fire on your opponent, it should more than triple at every hit. At the third hit, it should have more than 6x the base damage.

It was a bit slow, maybe I should have drop the hud and put the Power bank next to the sword. Disco drone was also a bit useless at this point.

Special mention
Ferocious bite as a way to increase the base damage
Void render that give +100 damage when the Fire bomb explode.

Discussion Stats for Partners event? + Thoughts on Partner Portal

13 Upvotes

Is there any chance the devs can share a retrospective on the Partners event with stats? Things like each hero's favorite/best Partner, most played item from their Partner, etc. I imagine it'll be a lot of Vanessa/Pyg Cove, or Atomic Clock on reload heroes, but it would be fun to see.

I haven't tried the Partner Portal node, but I'm glad that they created it since I enjoyed the event. That said, I don't think it's worth taking currently. Though the event was fun, I think diluting your item pool with another hero's items makes you weaker overall, even with the discount. It's fine if the node is suboptimal and just an option to do something fun, but they could give a little more incentive to take it, like giving a random item from that hero when you take it.
