    Is Electrostatic not working anymore? It doesn't seem to 'do' anything when I cast it atm.

    GabrielQ I need me some PIE!

    Right, currently it isn't working.

    What should I use to get the Epic bonus in place of it? Nothing, I suppose?

    The time it would took you to get the epic bonus is better employed doing the rush quickier.
    There are some engines that can be used but they are expensive, things like xulos + necroweave + marsh songs to accrue nora + death harvester to pick the globes and see how many times you have to repeat it. You may want to use SP bonus to do this if possible.

    Been using that Gabriel as well as the Protect the NEst and owersource to get the epic battle on all the stages, its working like a charm taking less than 15 minutes to do entire campaign.

    You don't need PtN nd Powersource if you use Xulos.

    Xulos dying 8 times + 2 obelisk deaths = epic bonus

    PS: I still don't get why, if it was intentional, they made Electrostatic ineffectual. People with tenacity will always find the most statistical way to rush these things. Now it just takes a slightly different deck.

    Complete run up with xulo's engine!

    If you simply wait 1 turn and don't cast both Harvester and the Tomb on the same turn you won't get stunned by Euan on turn 7, and you can deploy xulos a turn earlier, then shield to kill on turn 8.

    The AI hammered me 3! times in my initial test.

    It seems as though it will hammer whatever champion is in range every other turn... so if you delay summoning the harvester by one you won't be stunned on turn 7 if youre not running shield, and you can summon xulos and move into position to kill euan the next turn. This is what I got on my first run:


    turn 1: place obelisks, scry base, use obelisks
    turn 2: scry obelisks, scry base, end turn
    turn 3: scry obelisks, place undead tomb, end turn
    turn 4: play death harvester, end turn
    turn 5: use first acid gale on the carrier
    Turn 6:end turn
    turn 7: deploy xulos 8 times, end turn
    Turn 8: if not stunned move death harvester, acid gale euan, or delay 1 turn if stunned.

    Note: I didn't have shield that run, so if I did I would have shielded Harvester on turn 4 and gotten the guaranteed kill on turn 8.

    Reason why electrostatification isnt working is that it reads the 4 dmg first and then adds the x4 per champ on the board after. If you play against non FF IS you can actually see the effect. Only the FF bonus counters it. It shouldnt but it does.
    Also the description is now faulty.
    The damage calculation is the same but it now uses a AoE 3 range dealing the full damage in the middle and growing weaker to the sides. Much like Draconic Pulsar. Also it adds shocked 2 condition to every champion that was hit.
    In short this means that the spell is useless for farming this campaign now. But you all figured that out already.

    The Xulos bomb I always had as a side idea in my bg anyway. Even made a FS/FW bg that only plays to this combo to make people ragequit if they couldnt counter. Which never happens.

    btw I use Pool of Dreams for Shield for all my champs that shouldnt be Hhammer Striked.

    Xulos bomb is saving up nora, casting Necroweave and deploying Xulos over and over again.

    and in Euans Last Stand, especially in the last chapter the AI may cast Hammer Strike on your units. To prevent this I use Pool of Dreams to give them Shielded. I myself do not run Hammer Strike.

    I'm the one who posted the videos a long time ago regarding this strategy, I haven't tried farming yet since update so I will go through it again and see how it holds up. In my experience before it wasn't worht it to try to get all the bonus things, it was best just to rush through each in a minute -ish.
