sitnaltax @sitnaltax.bsky.social · 21/03/2026@briellastella.bsky.social The Insight-improving package I settled on: * Reworked stamina loss to be a higher base, but scale less with depth * Treasure gain scales with Mystery * More and improved high-cost items * Final Ordeal's Trouble scales faster at Hard and Expert 200
sitnaltax @sitnaltax.bsky.social · 21/03/2026There's a new update for Jacq's Quest available. Featuring daily challenges!

sitnaltax @sitnaltax.bsky.social · 20/03/2026Thank you! That's what I was hoping for with them. Another thing I'm considering now is items that appear only at depth 18+ but are considerably more efficient than ordinary items(like $8 for something a little better than current top-tier items). Will have to try some things out this weekend 010

sitnaltax @sitnaltax.bsky.social · 19/03/2026things I am considering for some update: 1. Scale up treasure rewards around floor 12; add high-tier items (2 redraws + 8 stats, say) at the $18-$20 price point; maybe cheapen tier 3 light sources 2. Whenever Insight fails with less than half the requirement, scale up the final encounter 011
sitnaltax @sitnaltax.bsky.social · 18/03/2026Another brainstorm is to apply some additional penalty if the insight fails by too much, or for multiple floors in a row. There are a lot of levers but I would like to try to keep it simple 000
sitnaltax @sitnaltax.bsky.social · 18/03/2026Thanks! Interesting. I expected this to be a reasonable strategy, but I was hoping it wouldn't be foolproof. The natural thing to try is increasing the treasure rewards, item power, and item cost all together, so you can't ignore Insight totally. That would work but would be touchy 🤔 100
