King of Vampire Survivors (Challenge Requests)

[Nirodeth]

Introduction:

This is a challenge board called "King of Vampire Survivors".
Anyone can post challenge requests following the "Defaults" and "Rules" in order to create unique challenges for players to take on.

The purpose of the defaults are to help reduce confusion, and save time when making and accepting challenges.
The defaults are essentially default mandatory conditions for all challenges, unless explicitly stated otherwise in the challenge request.

The purpose of the rules is to not only keep challenges within the realm of possibility and practicality, but also to promote a specific style of challenge.
Stimulate your imagination to create unique and difficult challenges within the scope of the rules, and the players will in turn be stimulated to conquer the challenge.

Challenge Example: "Use Porta to complete Mad Forest. Video proof"

_________________

DEFAULTS (Mandatory unless specified otherwise):

1. Hyper & Arcanas: Enabled (can be specified to disable).
2. Hurry: Disabled (can be specified to enable).
3. Curse (Power Ups): 50% (can specify different values).
4. Image proof of challenge completion (can specify for video proof).
5. Challenges are considered "completed" by the 30 minute mark (different or additional completion conditions can be specified in the challenge).

RULES:

0.
All challenges must be at least theoretically possible to complete without exploiting game bugs, without hacking, ETC.

1.
Players must be able to fill all weapon and passive item slots.

2.
Players must be allowed to get all 3 Arcanas (unless Arcanas is disabled in challenge request).

3.
Challenge requests can specify up to 3 weapons, 3 passive items, and 1 Arcanas as mandatory for players to use (No specific order).
|
Also, challenge requests can specify up to 3 weapons, 3 passive items, and 3 Arcanas that players CANNOT use.

4.
In the case of Skull O'Maniac, if you want players to use it, you have to specify using it as a passive item, and will not be considered a substitute for a specific Curse level (for example, if you specify 20% Curse in the challenge, the Curse bonus from SOM will not count towards it).
The bonus from SOM will only count if you specify a Curse level above what can be bought in Power Ups, in which case, SOM is still considered a passive item.

5.
If a Curse level is specified, it will be considered a minimum unless you specify it as required.
This means that a player can use a Curse level higher than the specified level unless you state otherwise.

6.
The only Power Ups that can be adjusted in challenge requests are: Curse, Revival, Skip, Banish.

7.
Challenge conditions that require resetting achievements are NOT allowed.

I attempted to increase readability and reduce possible confusion.

I made some rule revisions based on recent popular opinions. The change log is in the OP.

Basically these new rules:
3.1 You can specify 3 weapons, 3 passive items, and 3 Arcanas that we cannot use.

6. The only Power Ups that can be adjusted in challenge requests are: Curse, Revival, Reroll, Skip, Banish.
_________________

It is Rule 3 AND 3.1 or only 3.1? If it is the former, you might want to update the wording for 3.1 to start 'You can, also, ' and if it is the latter you might want to just remove the old rule 3.

Also, are we still allowed to state that Arcanas and/or Hyper mode are enabled/disabled or is rule 3.1 implying that you will always have Arcanas turned on and we are only allowed to restrict 3 of them? If you are implying that arcana will be enabled and we can only restrict some, you might want to remove Rule #2 and in your defaults, change Default #1 to only show Hyper and remove reference to Arcanas.

I edited the OP again to try to make it more readable and reduce confusion. There are no decimals in rules now.
Also the purpose of defaults and rules are explained in the Introduction section.

Challenge requests can specify disabling Arcanas and Hyper. If that is not specified in the challenge request, they are mandatory for the player to enable them by default.

Challenge requests can specify up to 3 weapons, 3 passive items, and 1 Arcanas as mandatory for the player to use.
Challenge requests can also specify up to 3 weapons, 3 passive items, and 3 Arcanas that the player is not allowed to use.

I felt like Batman.....

When people write stories for Batman, do they have to take away all of his stuff just to challenge him?
No, they make good challenges that can challenge Batman even at his best.

This is by far the funniest post in this entire troll thread.

idk do a 220% curse run
no clock or laurel

[Soft Lockpick]

If you spent as much time playing the game as you've spent arguing about rules for arbitrary challenges you keep not doing you might actually be good at the game.

[Superacestriker]

i agree with soft lockpick why don't you just ask if we have ideas for runs you can try. Heres another just before white death kills you, use a rosary on it.

How do I get Curse to 220%?

You should be careful agreeing with people when only half of the story is provided.

I'm a busy person and also just yesterday learned that there are hidden characters and stages in this game, which is more for me to do in the game while still having limited time.
I suppose I'm prioritizing explore the hidden characters and stages over the challenges that are proposed here, since that is new content to me and hidden characters are another option I may have when I take on a challenge here.

This thread is only a couple of days old. There is no reason to binge all of the challenges in a single moment when there can potentially be months or years worth of challenges (content) posted here based on how the game is updated over time.

Bro. I'd be surprised if you even complete a launch the game challenge.

I'm changing the rules again to prevent the Power Up "Reroll" from being adjusted in challenge requests.

Tested it out with "Seven Four"'s challenge request. It's simply not fun to punch holes into my computer desk due to the whims of RNG, rather than whether my decisions are competent or not.

Using Reroll is a completely fair tool to have in my arsenal since it doesn't guarantee getting the stuff I need right away, or at all, and still requires logical thought towards using it.

Challenges that are based entirely on RNG are simply not fun.
The point is to challenge the player's ability. Not challenge their luck.

Gets what? I thought it was a general statement.

Well, here is a challenge or two:

Survive 30 minutes on Green Acres with Christine.

Any curse and power ups you want.
