anyone wanna calculate how much quanta you need to win with like 8 bolts? might wanna use less towers or something.
Alright then. Basically how I calculated this: 100/8 = 12.5; rounding up according to Bolt damage = 14/15. To get 15 damage with Fire Lance you'd need at least 40 quanta. With 6 Fire Lances you'd need 45
. 10 HP remaining, you could use 1 of either other Bolt to kill of the opponent. To deal 10 damage between the two you'd need to do 4 with one and 6 with the other. So, 10 quanta for one and 20 for the other (If the remaining 2 Bolts are different). Using this kind of reasoning you can calculate it for any scenario.
6 Fire Lances + 2 Bolts:
45
, 90 damage
10
and 20
, 4 damage + 6 damage = 10 damage
OR 10
and 20
, 4 + 6 = 10
OR 20
(with 2 Siphon Life), 4 + 6 = 10
OR 20
(with 2 Ice Lance). 4 + 6 = 10
5 Fire Lances + 3 Bolts:
44
, 75 damage
40
and 30
(2 Ice Lance), 10 + 8 + 8
OR 40
and 30
(2 Siphon Life), 10 + 8 + 8
OR 40
(3 Ice Lance), 10 + 8 + 8
OR 40
(3 Siphon Life). 10 + 8 +8
4 Fire Lances + 4 Bolts:
43
, 60 damage
43
(4 Ice Lance), 40 damage
OR 43

OR 42
and 40
(3 Ice lance), 30 damage + 10 damage

(2 of each). 20 damage + 20 damage
3 Fire Lances + 5 Bolts:
42
, 45 damage
52
and 41
(3 Ice Lance), 36 + 20 damage
OR 52

Note: Obviously, these are just the minimum quanta amounts for each situation. This is probably the easiest quanta amount to reach for each one. Interestingly, if you use a Fire Lance/Ice Lance/Siphon Life when you have an amount of quanta that ends in a zero, you will deal damage as if the cost for that Bolt card had not been deducted (i.e. you have 10
. You play Fire Lance and deal 4 damage even though it subtracts 1
before actually dealing damage).
