Overkill Bonus

[Elemensch]

I don't like how Double Kill and Last Leg seem to always happen together.

Suggestion:

- Increase Last Leg bonus a bit to compensate for changing Double Kill.

- Double Kill now counts from starting HP, not final HP. This means you would need to hit -100 HP to get the bonus in a Commoner game, -150 HP in a Champion game, etc. Even if the AI is spamming Magma and Shards of Divinity, you only need to worry about the starting HP.


Then add a other few watermark bonuses which also count from starting XP:

- Double Tap (-20% starting hp)

- Overkill (-50% starting hp)


The result should be that Double Kill is no longer trivial when you go for Last Leg, and there are a few rewards for excessive damage which all stack.

compensating last leg with this change makes sense but it would be good to get some last leg stats to see it that bonus can be better tuned

[Elemensch]

Last Leg + Perfect Damage should be untouched.

Last Leg + Double Tap (-20% original max) should be common.

Don't really have insight into how often Last Leg currently appears.

I've been grinding a bit with this deck:

Are the details of its victories visible / available / useful for you?

So, it's a lot harder to get Perfect Damage than it is to get the current Double Kill + Last Leg.

I'd suggest increasing the Last Leg by +5% since it's easy to get that, keeping Perfect Damage as-is, and then changing Double Kill to something like:

Double Tap (below -20% starting max HP): +5%
Overkill (below -50% starting max HP): +5% cumulative, for +10% total with above
Double Kill (below -100% starting max HP): +10% cumulative, for +20% total with both above

That way when you get the -100% Double Kill it will feel impressive (with a higher total bonus and more lines of text), and that seems appropriate since it's going to be more time-consuming to pursue.

yes, I can look it up, & evaluate impact of bonus changes from that

Great, let me know what I can do to help.
