Damage on the heart

[Krampus]

What's the highest damage you guys ever did to the heart?
Wanna see where my 901 are, it feels like a decent amount.

Think mine was around 935 on ascension 6 with a double tap searing blow deck. Elites were easier then normal fights.

[sweeper]

well I got 2 run with ironclad and silent.

silent poison deck with 505 points

ironclad necronomicon, strength cards and heavy cards for 525 points

719 right now on ascension level 1
started with a low cost shiv deck, I wasn't able to pick up accuracy, but I picked up the relic that gives you 2 relics when killing elites, which led me to collect every "when you play 3 attacks in the same turn..." that I have encountered previously. The fan, the kunai, the suriken, the scroll.

Off topic, I encountered a ? event that included betting money on a fight that I had not seen before, and I have put a good amount of time into this game. Was that cause by an update? Are there just really rare events? or is it connected to ascension level?

[Krampus]

Doesn't ring any bells. Probably a new ? encounter.
I'm assuming you're playing the Beta version.

[Nibbie]

Was it the joust about (if I remember) a dog? Is so I've seen that a few times before the most recent patch, not (too) new.
As for damage, I haven't really ventured into ascension yet, but I think I got around 600 as my highest.

The damage to the heart is the same as your score. You can look at the leaderboards to see the typical range of scores (but the highest scores are cheating).

[Vae]

I'd say 1100 is about the max you can get legit, anything over that might be fishy.

Atleast in my experience :P

[NotEnoughGolds]

A bit over 1000 on Ascension ~7 with Ironclad. Final turn was Offering+ Seeing Red+ Seeing Red+ Seeing Red+ Double Tap Whirlwind+ (with Necronomicon)

[Ashardalon]

1116 is my highest now i think
ascension 8
not an increadible deck, far to little card draw
but all the ninja stuff and the mummie hand so i gained 3strength and dex per turn and healed 20 per battle
lucky it wasnt the awakened, think i lost 10hp in the donu deca fight

I forget exactly, but I've had a couple in the 1100 neighborhood. The Ascension 15 bonus is 450 points, so you can see how it's not too crazy to get there.

[DaviddesJ]

I'm not sure exactly how the Ascension bonus is calculated, but it seems to be a percentage of your base score, not a fixed bonus. It's about 5% per level, so Ascension 15 is about a 75% bonus, so you would need to score about 630 base score to get 1100 with Ascension 15 bonus.

The scoring system seems kind of dumb to me, it rewards things that don't particularly need to be rewarded. Why do I get a higher score for having more cards in my deck, or a higher score for having more cards of one type? But it is what it is.

That is what the description says, but I remember calculating it for the first few levels, and it never added up right. Maybe the bonus is bugged, or at least it was at the time.

[DaviddesJ]

It seems to be approximately but not exactly 5% per level. Maybe something to do with internal rounding.

I got 927 no ascension with a discard tingsha deck. Had like 4 backflips in the deck and 2 tactian+ so I had infinite damage on turn 1 especially with gambling chip and calculated gamble along with pen nib + storm of steel for that final burst. you get 200 points if you beat all the bosses without taking any damage, so I think I got lucky getting such a good deck on act 1
