Glyph of affection

The Glyph of Affection is an armor glyph that can appear on certain types of armor in Remixed Dungeon. This glyph provides charm-based defensive abilities to the wearer.

Description

When an enemy hits the wearer of armor with this glyph, there is a chance that the attacker will become charmed, turning to fight alongside the hero for a limited time.

Mechanics

Grounded in Affection.java:

  • Activation: Triggers when the wearer is hit by an enemy that is adjacent to the wearer
  • Probability: Chance is (armor level gated to 0-6)/2 + 4 out of (level/2 + 5), i.e. 80% at level 0, rising to 90% at level 6
  • Effect: The attacker is charmed for a random duration of 2-5 turns (modified by charm resistance)
  • Backlash: The wearer also becomes charmed for half of the attacker's duration, but never longer than the attacker
  • Limitations: Mindless enemies may be immune to the charm effect

Armor Compatibility

  • Can appear on any armor as a random glyph inscription

Strategy

  • Effective in groups of enemies, as charmed enemies will fight other enemies
  • Particularly useful against difficult single enemies
  • Be careful in situations where you don't want to lose control of the battlefield
  • Works well with crowd control strategies

Identification

  • Armor with this glyph appears as normal until activated
  • Can be identified through various means like Scroll of Identify
