Starting this out cause it doesn't look like there's a variant discussion yet.
could be in line with the unlock condition for Heroic Luminary.
as someone less familiar with the lore, any theories as to the story progression of Harpy?
Alternatively it could be similar to the Dark Watch variant unlocks?
Let's get this variant!
Well, if it's similar to Luminary, I'd guess the first game is "win a fight against The Matriarch in Rook City without The Harpy on the team."
Tried beating Matriarch in Rook City with Tacyon dealing the final blow (not using Harpy or any Dark Watch heroes.)
then tried winning a game with Dark Watch (minus Harpy) in Rook City.
now screwing around with Harpy plays in rook city.
As yet no unlock.
It's not beat Matriarch in Rook City, then beating Skinwalker Gloomweaver in Realm of Discord with Harpy dealing the finishing blow.
Addendum: Beating Apostate in the Realm of Discord with Harpy delivering finishing blow didn't get it either.
I will save you all the time of doing this one-
beat Chairman in Rook City using full Dark Watch plus Harpy.
ugh.
No unlock, but could be prereq as i have not played since.
Fixer dealt final blow, Nightmist handicapped (if it matters)
My assumption is that, if this is a multiple level unlock like Luminary, the final step wil include "without Nightmist" because story.
I tried fighting Apostate in the Realm of Discord with Harpy and no Nightmist and had Harpy destroy all of Apostates relics. No unlock.
Got myself an unlock! Discussion in Discord lead to the potential of it requiring a different difficulty, so I've been playing games on Advanced and Challenge. Don't know if it's important. Also had comments about going from 5 bird to 5 magic, to represent her gaining control over her magic, so I did that ASAP and kept her at 5 magic after that. Tried a lot of games in Realm of Discord and only two in Temple of Zhu Long (including the unlock, though I didn't keep logs of all my attempts), so potentially it *can't* be in Realm of Discord? Or I just managed to do something in Zhu Long that I hadn't in RoD.
Would seem odd if it can't be RoD, since that's where she ran into Gloomweaver, but Gloomy might also be a fluke of relation to the unlock.

Had you previously beaten the Matriarch? If so, where and with whom?
Yes, but it's irrelevant. No entries are shown in the registry to indicate other conditions, which shows this is a single battle unlock.
So it happened at the end of the game in a game with Tach, Leg, Nat, AA, and Harpy, against Gloomweaver in Zhu Long.
time to start the grind.
The community has discovered the official unlock condition for Dark Watch Harpy.
Defeat Advanced GloomWeaver in the Realm of Discord with The Harpy on the team. Flip all control tokens to avian, then all to arcana. After that, they must remain all arcana until the end of the game. The Harpy must destroy at least one villain relic, and may not be incapacitated.
NOTE: There is a bug where you can unlock the variant in any environment. This will be fixed in the next update.
well heck :O
It sounds like a good strategy might be to go full bird until you take the relic out, then go arcana bit by bit before the win.
I can't get either Harpy or Luminary to show that they have variants available on my iPhone. Anyone else having this problem?
Harpy wasn’t showing a variant available on my iPad this morning, but it still gave me the unlock.
I just played a couple of one shots to get to full bird straightaway and then quickly got set up to full Arcane and kept it that way - only dodgy point was when the environment played the Ghostly Apparitions thing which could have played a one shot and flipped some tokens, but I got lucky!
I did it, and didn't unlock it... Turns out, it's because she doesn't show that the variant is available for unlock. I even redownload the files, and it's still not there. What do I do?
Edit: I had to close the app and restart it. Now I should be able to do it.
Edit 2: Did it. Pretty easy with Legacy, TLT, Argent Adept, and Harpy (in that order)
Two things I’d suggest. First making sure the app is up to date. If it is, force close the app and relaunch the game then try.
App is up to date, tried twice, can't get the unlock for DW Harpy. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Found it! After you flipped all your tokens from Avian to Arcana, it looks like you started flipping them back to Avian.
You have to go Full Avian, then Full Arcana, then never flip tokens for the rest of the game.
I swear I didn't think I did that... I know I went full arcana before I went full bird, then went back to full arcane.... Was something flipping them that I didn't control?
I haven’t looked at your log, but Uncontrollable Flock flips one Arcane Token to Avian at the start of your turn with no choice. Conjured Aura lets you change them out of turn when you take damage, but the game offers you a choice for that.
As a warning, I had all three relics in GW's trash, then Ghostly Images played Direct Strike from Harpy's deck during the Environment Turn before the Villain Turn that would have ended the game.
Make sure that you have at least a little deck control to make sure that doesn't happen to you, intrepid explorers!
After the time I faled to get an unlock because the Naturalist insta-killed Voss instead of killing him via HP, I never use instant win conditions to unlock variants.
Okay, I went back in and tracked all of the flips, and… uh… I’m not sure what’s going on but it’s something.
Harpy starts with 3 Arcana, 2 Avian
Magical Bequest turned it to 4/1
Conjured Aura flipped it back to 3/2
Mystic Outburst flipped two to to make it 1/4.
Tenuous Focus flipped you to all Avian tokens.
Then you started the flip back:
Tenuous Focus flipped you to 1/4
Magical Bequest took you to 2/3
Magical Bequest took you to 3/2
Magical Bequest took you to 4/1
You accidentally killed the book with Huginn and Munnin, and undid the end of the turn.
Huginn & Muninn took you back to 3/2
Then we get the following line:
While in preview mode, a decision made the result unknowable.
I think during that time you jumped up to 4 Arcana, 1 Avian, because:
Mystical Outburst is listed as flipping three tokens to Avian.
Huginn & Munnin added another flip to Avian, making things 5 Avian.
Conjured Aura flipped one token to Arcana.
Magical Bequest gave you a second Arcana.
Huginn & Munnin gave you a third Arcana.
Magical Bequest gave you a fourth Arcana.
Magical Bequest filled your Arcana.
My guess is that the condition wasn’t filled because you went full Avian, started on the path back to Arcana, then doubled back and filled Avian again before you went full Arcana. The condition might not allow token flipping once you’ve filled one side.
Looks like a spam post.
Yep and suddenly random links are in the post now.
Question will be posted here after I edit 80000 characters out of a Log that this software doesn’t allow me to post. If ever SOTM returns from death, I hope that Handelabra and >G will work together to create a more streamlined method of log sharing and conversion for readability.
That would solely be on Handelabra if you want the log sharing and output altered. You can make a request through the feedback in the app or here Contact Us — Handelabra Games
Also, the SotM app still gets big fixes and MigrantP still sets up a weekly one shot so it’s not dead on that end.
It would still have to have some sort of integration with this board if the results were to be shared here. That’s the part that needs rezzzing.
There has never been integration with these forums or the prior one for the SotM app game logs.
I know there wasn’t. I wish there was.
Your comment suggests otherwise but again you mainly need to contact Handelabra if you want logs reworked long before it matters if it can integrate with the forums or not.
