I think their should be a Hard difficulty for the AI with the following traits.

Dual Domain Decks: Come on, almost all of us use these. Isn't it fair that the AI has some too?
Spell and Enchant Usage: There has been many a day where I lol my head of with floating eyes(the card) as the computer has a hand of kickass spells and enchants but doesn't use them. Pretty embarassing.
Auto Chat messages: Little bit more of a convienience, but i'd like the AI to say some stuff like Good Luck, Good Game, Gotcha!, stuff like that.
Better Decks: From what i've seen, most AI decks are pretty unbalanced, and seem like most had just have 3 copies of a card thrown it to finish it. I'd at least like to see some sort of a strategy in Hard Difficulty.

go to the folder \The Far Wilds\helpers\media\battle\ai

open the Sylvan AI file and change the contents to:

<Deck>
<id count="4">468582637</id>
<id count="3">1468226969</id>
<id count="3">2012880174</id>
<id count="3">2035274552</id>
<id count="4">-1141229535</id>
<id count="2">-1028223632</id>
<id count="3">-887009118</id>
<id count="4">-830738668</id>
<id count="9">-786654597</id>
<id count="4">-586194649</id>
<id count="1">-585918522</id>
</Deck>

(you may want to keep a copy of the old file)

now whenever the sylvan ai comes up on the download version you'll face a harder deck (on normal difficulty).

The real challenge in creating a good ai deck is that the ai doesn't know how to use activated abilities so any cards with those lose most of their value, also for any target spells or enchantments, the ai has to be programmed to use the individual cards. (the ai's spells and enchantments don't work at all in the flash version.) Most any ai deck will be somewhat unbalanced and lack deeper strategy unless someone puts a lot of time into making a good ai to use a specific deck (or makes the ai cheat).

This is a great piece of info, thanks!

Is there a complete list of cards and ID's somewhere?

yeah there is a list of ids(sorta) but I'm not going to help you find it. I don't want to see people abusing the trick. If people want to see more ai decks of a certain kind I could put some together though.

Sorry bro, but most of us are too lazy to use the download :D.

Actually, although I do know many people use flash, the majority of the people I have asked use DL, including myself. It is much, much better.

well the ai is easier in the flash version anyway, if you want a harder ai you'll have to get the download version
