Inspiration is a bit too OP

It completely trivializes every sanctum run. I am running with 3 of the "gain X inspiration when you gain an affliction" relics, so now I get 150 inspiration every time I get an affliction. Usually have 1000 inspiration right on floor 1, which combined with boons means I can just get hit by everything and not even care. (Except the final boss of course who just bypasses all resolve/inspiration)

Or maybe add some form of damage that bypasses inspiration (like chaos damage for the regular game)? Its just too powerful of a mechanic right now.

Must have been a bug that you got those relics, i haven't seen a single one of those mods on relics so far.

lol abuse what? it's not a bug or unintended interaction, it's a core mechanic and it completely trivializes the sanctum

Yeah but nobody cares? It's your choice to do it.

They do show up, but 150 is a lot. I've only found that mod on 4x4 ones.

Annnnnd, how is this a problem?
I'll have to compare this with Reduced Resolve Hit 20% + 80 max + % max tactic.

I usually have 1k resolve by end of floor 2.
If I get a boon like Golden Orb it's pretty much a 100% chance to clear.

It's more cheesy than resolve because you can take all the % reduced resolve penalties and afflictions that affect resolve recovery, max resolve etc. There aren't any minor afflictions that affect inspiration afaik.

Anyway, I'm just saying the values should be tuned a bit. Maybe 20-25 inspiration per affliction rather than 50? Or introduce some afflictions that affect inspiration or give inspiration penalties.

Ever since I got those relics I honestly don't even bother with picking up coins or looking for a merchant a lot of times, because on a build that does ranged damage like totems/minions having 1k inspiration on the last floor guarantees a win every time.

That being said, the unique relics will change all that, so maybe then there'd be a reason to not cheese it with inspiration. Right now, it just feels like cheating the sanctum lol
