New route by hyperformance: https://www.speedrun.com/voodoo_detective/run/mkk1k0lm. I lost a decent amount of time in the early game because I'm still getting used to the new route. Lots of red, but I always post PBs to the boards. The Victor fight went really well.

The devs explained the damage values, and it appears that using Apple of My Eye is never worth it. https://www.speedrun.com/voodoo_detective/thread/erghw

Exploiting one of Victor's weaknesses does 25 damage. Doing so while he's in love does 34 damage. Since you use up a turn casting Apple of My Eye, the damage would have to be at least double to make it worthwhile... I think.
