Alternatively, you have to "collect them all", once per trial?
PVE shouldn't be all about copying a deck code and converting time into electrum, score, and potentially rares.
If the only way to derive fun from a game is its PVP content, then non-hardcore players a.k.a. the mass are alienated from the hardcore community.

Acheiving the trial for each hated card you may select is hard work, long and repetitive.

I like it !


When you're close to  the max level, electrum are worthless.
You don't even spin the wheel.
Maybe something else to do with your stack  (for a while)

I'd like to see some sort of electrum/score reward for the Trial, since as it stands now there is no real use to repeating it.
Years ago we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash, Bob Hope, and Steve Jobs. Now we have Obama, no hope, no cash, and no jobs.

I like the idea of the quest, but it seems to me that the reward will only have limited use.  It's fine for countering cards which take away your health or quanta or cause you to spend extra quanta (like Rewind), but I can't see how it'd be much use against most cards.  How would gaining 5 HP and 5 quanta be in any way beneficial against Fire Shield, for example?  Or the Shard of Sacrifice?

I'm not sure what the reward should be, and I like the idea of having something added to your mark, but I think that this current idea is far more limited than it initially seems.

^ Say you were running an SNbow with an entropy mark that countered black holes.
With the mark, you could be up and running more quickly after the BH usage.
My 3 game-modification principles:
1. If it ain't broke, don't wreck it.
2. Simple fixes for simple problems.
3. Remember to fill in the holes.

Or "The Test", but that doesn't sound quite as cool.

I'm not saying that there's no cards that it'll be useful against, just that the number of cards it's useful against is quite limited.

Mind. blown. This idea is just amazing! It puts a whole new dynamic in a, for the most part, deep game. I wonder how it affects the truly  new players though.
