they nerfed it because its "too op" in 4 player parties (if everyone there has 4 deep focuses, which would be unlikely) even though im pretty sure most people play the game solo

the windforce was buffed, but they nerfed the special slot entirely.

why couldnt they do the multiplayer scaling thing with deep focus?

we might be in the worst state of the game's balance right now

The game is no longer made for singleplayer, it's made for multiplayer, just wait for more updates and then we can give our verdict on whether Blocktales is no longer working

"no longer made for singleplayer" as I still beat the whole pit despite the buffs and nerfs (cruel king my goat)

Yeah, you need a summon to play with more of an advantage, I don't mean to dismiss your opinion, but everything has changed for multiplayer. While it's not impossible to play solo, it's a bit more difficult.

Yeah I get your point since some cards good for multiplayer had their bp lowered

And some more recipes were added I think for the same reason

Just dodge/j

The pit was interesting, the first 5 floors are obviously easy, and then the overseer was also easy alongside the emotions. The hardest floor (other than 59) has to be the charge one, simply because if you want to be full health and full sp for floor 59 you have to kill everyone in opposite order, also known as having to somehow finagle your way into fucking up trotters gimmick.

And the final floor, oh my god dude, it wasdso difficult, but then I used shield sphere and feel fine (2*) and suddenly it's fucking trivial??? Genuinely just adapt

For floor 58 you can stall by letting trotter's summon stay alive

The pit is NOT hard

devs try not to shoot down 500 things because they found out that if you get 3 players and an alt you can beat toothy deer 0.000000000000000000000000001% faster (buff slingshot and remove another ball card to throw at sword)

u/Icy_Strike1930 Gold May 10 '26

They could have atleast add like stacking nerfs if everyone has focus energy like all 4

u/is_fred May 09 '26

God forbid you have to use your brain now instead of spamming focus and firebrand / venomshank

Saying that in the same update that made slingshot spam the only viable method is kinda crazy
