Hi Nate,

Would it be possible to include a second (and even third) set of lines in the fight strategies, where you could click with a toggle-switch which plan to use?

As quick example,

Plan A:
1- Start of fight, Activity 6, Counterattack, Bloodlust 6
2- Opponent is trying to give up, Activity 4, Slash, Bloodlust 10
3- Opponent is Blind, Activity 8, Slash, Bloodlust 8
4- Opponent is Bleeding, Activity 4, Parry-Slash, Bloodlust 4
5- I am tired, Activity 4, Parry-Slash, Bloodlust 4

Plan B:
1- Start of fight, Activity 8, Parry-slash, Bloodlust 2
2- Opponent is very tired, Activity 6, Slash, Bloodlust 6
3- Opponent is hurt, Activity 7, Slash, Bloodlust 7
4- Odd Round, Activity 6, Parry-slash, Bloodlust 4
5- Even Round, Activity 8, Slash, Bloodlust 6

Plan C:
1...
2...
3...
4...
5...

That way we could have on hand an easy way to switch out our strategies. So, we could have our default one, and then select to use the Plan B (or C) for arena challenges, a certain opponent type, for the Battle Royale, to tweak and experiment, etc. (It would sure beat taking a screen shot of your current strategy, then putting the new one in, taking a screen shot of it, and then changin back, etc).

Would anyone else find this of use?

That would be cool, the question is can it be done easily So Nate does not get sidetracked from conquests.

Only Nate could say. Depending on how the original architecture is set up, it could be anywhere from an afternoon to a total (and unreasonable) redesign.
Could also maybe look at setting drop-boxes for some very general triggers for each plan?(eg. Battle Royale, Opponent Type, always active, disabled...)
For example:
Plan A = Default
Plan B = Opponent is rage
etc...

I've had exactly the same idea in mind for some time, mainly due to the rather tedious process of changing strategies between the arena challenges and the standard fights (+ if you forget to revert something back and go inactive for a few days, it could lead to a large number of defeats in short time). So yeah, definitely approve.

This is a very good idea. I really like the general trigger for each plan, even if it was only 2, it would simplify strat changes for BG/AC.

A plus, plus, plus...
