Starting Relic: Pandora's Box

Description
Note 2021-05-26: As of this writing, the mod has not been updated in 3+ years and currently I do not have any intent of updating it. Possibility at some point in the future but the probability is low. Thanks to everyone that had a chance to enjoy it :).

Introductions:
This mod replace's the Ironclad, The Silent, Defect and multiple custom characters (see 'Also works with...' section) starting relic with the Boss relic Pandora's Box.

I wrote this mod when I was thinking about a friend's (and a couple streamers's) recent run(s) of picking up Pandora's Box when they swapped out their starting relic out for a boss relic via Neow's Bonus.

It is recommended that the player review their deck at the start of the run as the confirmation screen showing the player what their new deck is does not display at this time (I plan to implement this in the near future).

F.A.Q:
Q: Why is "Bash", "Survivor", "Zap"... still in my deck?
A: Pandora's Box only switches out Strikes and Defends. As such the other cards that the player starts with should remain in the deck.

Q: Was this built/tested with any ascensions in mind?
A: This mod was not written with any specific ascension in mind.

Q: I found a (potential) bug. How do I report it?
A: First, make sure it can be reproduced only using this mod enabled. After which, feel free to reach out to me at pandatron76{(at)}gmail{(dot)}com, submit an issue or leave a comment and I will see if i can reproduce it. I will also look at the comments here periodically for feedback.

ToDo:
  • Present the user with the Pandora's Box onEquip 'pick-up' screen so they know what their deck is.
  • Reach out to other character modders.

Please add an option to start with Pandora's Box as a bonus relic for both standard and custom runs.

Is there a way to do this as a Neow choice?

The way it is now you effectively get 2 neow blessings -- starter relic swapped to pandora and the normal neow choice, which can be boss swap for pandora's.

Not familiar with STS modding, but saw this other mod that affects Neow's choice: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1613185732

Is there a way to have both Pandora's box and your class's starter relic as a custom run?

这个mod很有意思。

将原版2个角色和机器人mod的初始遗物以及部分mod角色的初始遗物替换为潘多拉魔盒(实测比如魔理沙,会使用潘多拉效果替换初始卡,但是初始遗物不会被替换)

建议玩家第一时间看下自己的初始卡组以确定需要走什么流派,因为这个mod暂时不会像正常获得潘多拉那样将替换的卡显示在屏幕面前(以后可能会更新加入这个功能)

Egrodiel - To my knowledge, I do not believe there is a way to specifically choose your starting relic in Slay the Spire via 'Custom' -> 'Modifiers'. There are modifiers/trails that only replace your starting relic with a specific one ('such as 'Praise Sneko' and 'Inception' ) but I did not see the option to replace a starting relic with 'Pandora's Box'. It is possible that I am wrong in this regard and if you could instruct me on how to setup a custom run with these modifiers, it would be appreciated. As always appreciated the feedback and wish you the best in your future slaying.

Couldn't you just make a custom run in base StS and choose this as your starting relic? What's the point of a mod?

Psytrin - Also I double checked my wording and you were right, it is not super clear what the mod is doing. I will work on providing more concise and clearer text.

Psytrin - No problem. I will work on cleaning it up so its a bit more clear such that hopefully if one is tired it will still make sense. I hope you enjoy the mod if you decided to give it ago. Please let me know if you have any additional questions :).
