Cosmic Inventor Writhe Unlock Discussion

It’s not that… just failed one where Writhe had 5 equipment cards in play at the end and the Shadow Cloak spend the majority of the game in play…

I just unlocked him myself. My strategy was to just get as much Equipment to the table as possible.

(I've forgotten how to post logs, would someone mind giving me a reminder how? I'll edit this post once I get it.)

Unlocked. I made sure every hero had a equipment card in play, which is why the game ran on so long. Also had a copy of every Writhe equipment card in play. I never used Somber Tinker, so the only equipment I ever played from the trash was the Shadow Cloak.

Your log can be found by punching in "C:\Users\(YourNameHere)\AppData\LocalLow\Handelabra Games Inc_\Sentinels" to your File Explorer.  At the bottom there will be a text file called "log" and another called "multiplayer_log."  Open it then copy the whole thing.
Go to pastebin.com and paste your gamelog, then click "Create new paste."  Once it's done, just copy the url url for the paste and post it where you need.

For those who unlocked, did you use ALL of Writhes equipment powers?

I only used Cloak Projector and Umbral Siphon. I did not use Portable Dark-Lab.

Here's a failure log where I played a ton of equipment with all characters and ended the game with equipment in play for all of them.  I know that idea has already been disproven, but I feel like this log will serve as a useful counterexample for a lot of related hypotheses.

Tried and failed. Action Hero Stuntman, Team Leader Tachyon, Writhe, Idealist and Omni-X against Trickster Kismet at Mobile Defense Platform. I got a bit overzealous and wrecked her before I got a whole bunch of Equipments, and Writhe himself only played two different ones. Shadow Cloak never left play. Omnitron got a good couple out, though.

I feel like I was on the right track, but it may matter how many Equipments the OTHER heroes play. I may double back and calculate that, if I feel sufficiently masochistic.

I just unlocked. No log as on iphone but it was KNYFE, Haka, AZ, Action Hero Stuntman and Writhe vs Progeny in Omnitron IV. Lots of equipment played (at least one piece by everyone, significantly more from KNYFE and Stuntman.)

Played a game with Tachyon, Writhe, Stuntman, and PW Argent Adept.

Writhe played an equipment every turn.

No unlock.

I used all 4(?) equipment cards for Writhe, making sure to destroy and resummon Shadow Cloak to defend and reirect damage from both Writhe himself and other heroes. I also used his lab, destroying it as well.

I also had Caspit's Playground out tho, so that may have falsly increased the ammounts of 'equipment' I had out over all.

 

I played FF AZ, Rook City Wraith, Legacy, and Writhe. Freedom Tower. Amuscade. I just had a crud-ton off equipment in play. Thank you Caspit Playground

Another failure. F5 Legacy, TLT, S&D Benchmark, Writhe and Fugue State Parse beat Voss at Magmaria. Shadow Cloak almost never saw the trash, Writhe had four of his own Equipments in play, and the other heroes (ESPECIALLY Benchmark, hot damn) collectively had a solid Equipment pool.

Caspit's Playground seems to be a big winner for people. I may make my next pass at Freedom Tower.

I wonder if this is a Termi-Nation Unity deal, where the more heroes you have the more equipment you need to bring out.

Unlocked!  I was wondering if team size had something to do with this so I tried a small team with heavy card draw and one otehr member that was equipment heavy.  It seemed to do the trick!

Success! I played Legacy, Writhe, Idealist vs Chairman at Zhu Long, and won. Idealist got the last hit in, with Bored Now, and I was disappointed to not get hers, but I got Writhe's.

 

Played every equipment multiple times, and used all of their powers but Cloak Projector. 

 

I think it might be H based; play H times 2 equipment cards, or maybe have H out at game end?

It seems to be more than just play a bunch of equipment or have a bunch of equipment out at end of game, unless than number is really high.  I just ended a game with each of three heroes having 3+ equipment out and playing much more than that over the course of the game.  ended with 13 total equipments in play.  I don't think that's the highest number I've ended a game with, though.  I think the log I posted earlier had more.

Here's another one that blows the previous one out of the water both in terms of equipment played and equipment in play at end of game, well past any plausible goal number for either of those values.  There's definitely more to it. I wasn't counting precisely, but I think I was at 30+ total equipment in play at end of game, and many more played over the course of the game. (FF Wraith, S&D Benchmark, Omni-X, Extremist SS, Writhe vs. Ambuscade @ Freedom Tower).

after countless games trying finally successful using 3 heroes (FF wraith, TL Tach and VG Writhe) in zhu long against ambuscade. Played writhe as usual (no particular strategy except made sure each equipment was in play at least once). Used is damage dealing ongoing once. Use portable lab and the knife once. use the vilain deck staller equipement once. did not use the cloak projector.  Note that this was my first try with 3 heroes only.

Tried to unlock Writhe and Idealist same game.

Idealist was unlocked.

Writhe wasn't unlocked.

FF Legacy, Writhe, Idealist, Tempest, PW AA against Ambuscade in Freedom Tower.

Finally got it. used the same setup and approach  as mb.  No Idea what's different about this time vs. the dozen or so other attempts I've made, but here it is, such as it is.

Unlocked in Freedom Tower. No equipment users outside of Writhe, though Caspit's may throw a wrench in those numbers.
