Choice of destiny: Awakening or Terminus?

Universal shard is really good, only one imperfect that you can’t stockpile shards.

Now I need to spend all of my 267 shards to packs, but which one? I can directly refuse to buy Occupation, but be confused between Awakening and Terminus.

If you have a bunch of shards, which pack you would buy?
Give me some suggestion, thanks.

Personally I’m still for awakening

If you want & don’t have Zarak, Skeep, Monarch, Bulwark, Eviscerator, Tazerok, Israfel, a few others, then Awakening.

If you want & don’t have Lord Halcyon, Metalworks, or Scale Hull, then Terminus.

Awakening has a greater density of must-have cards, but most of us already have a lot of Awakening. I went for Terminus.

awakening has the best cards overall! :D

Usefull cards:

Awakening (3/45) – Zarak, Warp Sculptor, Monarch

Terminus (3/44) – Lord Halcyon, Metalworks, Sphinx

Could be missing some. Probably.

Ya’ll are being way too harsh. Lord Silus, Gene Manipulator, Electro Marksman, Enrichment Vial, and others are all useful cards from Terminus. Awakening also has many good cards, it’s not like there are only a few decent cards per set.

Try arrangeing both pack

Still have medium chance to stamp on landmines, lol

I wouldn’t count out the new set due to it’s cost just yet: when I made my pack I was very happy with what I got. Of note was the card “Witch Nail,” a common (one of 8, so there’s a pretty fair chance of any occupation pack having it at the moment) xeno that is 4/7(4) with leech 4 and siege 3, which I find very useful, if a bit slow. Mind you, I consider myself not that skilled a player and my xeno deck mainly relies on a combo of mothership+warp sculptor to win, so I mainly like it as a good meatshield while waiting for those and a source of siege.

Egg Infector is one of the best cards in Tyrant.

Yeah lol your categories are kinda off. I don’t think anyone in their right mind would go for Awakening unless they absolutely can’t WB, just get 2 Zarak and a Monarch from Vault. Eviscerator and ROfficer are good and all but they’re not necessary cards. On the other hand, Halcyon, Metalworks, Soulsteel, and Phantasm are all absolutely gamechanging cards.

Btw, is Scale Hull that good? I have one but I’ve always ignored it in favour of other legendaries (by which I mean Heracles). It’s dangerous, sure, but when there’s Sabres and wallstalls everywhere I can’t see it working.

Not many armored 3. Armored 3 means it will be good PvE wise even if you cant find a spot for it in PvP.

Criticisms of lists:
Awakening
-Siegeship should be considered a jackpot, Radio officer should not.
-Flare Singularity is an Award, definitely not a land mine and not even a misfire. It’s one of the better action cards in the game.
Terminus
-Phase Lancer is an Award, Soulsteel Mount is a Jackpot. Scale Hull also does not deserve the title of jackpot, it is often overestimated. As for Blood Wraith, many would agree that it is also not a jackpot.
-Hazard Bolter should be moved up to Award, if you have a fear deck it’s quite helpful.
-Lightning Strider should be somewhere higher up, it has quick chaos and mimic with 2 meatshields.
-Magnification Relay is a landmine… really, everyone overestimates it, but I cannot find even one situation where it doesn’t have an easy, better replacement. Righteous has basically nothing to Augment.
-I might go as far as to say Skull Core is a Jackpot, it’s 1-Wait Chaos is amazing and goes really well with Egg Infectors, Flesh Reaper and Lord Halcyon with other structures.

The question is which jackpot pool has a better prize :D

Terminus hands down, esp if you already receive evi back then. Zarak may get phased out very soon.

Terminus.I Want Scale Hull,Metalworks,Clamber Husk And Lord Halcyon.
I Only Want Rofficer From Awakening.

good list, very good criticism. I agree with almost everything u said, only minor thing I wanna add is that lightning strider is not simply up, its a jackpot.

lolwut? u still hasn’t used up your shards? You are not earning shards and you know full well Dev will never undo the limit.

I want

Awakening: Eviscerator, Monarch, Israfel, Plague Burster, Kleave, Righteous Hold (and just got Zarak, and have tazerok, shuddering keep)

Terminus: Metalworks, Enrichment Vial, (already got lord halcyon, sphinx).

The other cards are probably good, but havent looked into them anough to know if I want them.

Awakening, Zarak, SKeep, Monarch, Flare sing are all absolute must haves, also ROfficer, Bulwark, Evisc, Plague, Tazzy, RHold are all nice as are any extra atelier.

Terminus Metalworks, Lord H, Lord S, Skull Core are all really useful but none quite make must have for me as there is a good sub in for them, also a lot of decent cards that I may find a use for (mostly more eggs), but overall Awak seems better to me.

Occu is hardly worth 5 shards let alone 15, exception is spider den.

TT

Heh… I’ve noticed you never seem to go over 666 posts once you reached it, have you been deleting old posts in order to stay at 666? xD

Not always deleting older post, but yes.. do you want to make 777?
