A necro win, not listing as winner in vault

Does the offline or vault items use invalidate the win? It clearly lists as a winner under the inventory.

Lessons.
- I do love Higher Necromancer with 5/3 in minions, Highborn's Bloom (autocast), Forgery of Haze, and Temporal Form (autocast). A powerful opening 1-2 punch of throwing minions at enemies and then dropping a Forgery.
- I don't care for the Grave tree, just unlocked it to try to unlock the Ice achievement. In particular, using Will O the Wisp makes it harder to destroy your minions through turning off your aura in order to have a full allotment ready for your next create minions.
- Not sure what to do to invest more in minions, which I'm really enjoying but don't feel like I can easily improve on. Highborn's Bloom and Assemble have nice synergy (keep exploding your Golems until you get a runed) but it still feels like I'm not getting good value for a category point. I feel like if I go that far I also ought to use Blighted Summoning, up my Necrotic Minions from 5/3 to 5/3/1/5, and get at least 1/5/1 in Advanced Necrotic Minions, which is a huge uptick in expense (13 class points, a category, and a prodigy).

Grave isn't locked. How did you unlock it?
My feedback meter decays into coding. Give me feedback and I make mods.

Sorry. Brainfart. :oops:

Just invested in Grave to unlock Ice.

Main question was, clearly lists as winner under character, but game says I have no winners in the current build. Thoughts?

You might have won the game when the client wasn't correctly connected to the server.

Do you mean the random statistic box during loading that says "The character's vault has registered a total of 0 winners in the current version" or something similar?

If so, that's what everyone sees. It's a total counter for all players and isn't working for some reason.

I'm not sure that's the case. My internet is very flaky and I've won the game a few times with internet down and still gotten the win registered.

Dunno how it does that, maybe registering an "old" win when the internet is re-enabled or something.
Stronk is a potent combatant with a terrifying appearance.

Solved! The mix of this and my realizing that I think of my necro as a Higher and the game thinks of him as a Lich have helped me find my second winner. I needed to scroll to the right a lot more...
