Somehow I ended up losing a run for no appreciable reason? Floor 88 of endless mode, I had a set of Mirrored Sculptors & Mirrored Obelisks along with an Adaptive Paladin with several hundred attack and HP. Ended up in a battle against some mostly-regular enemies with a Free Company Palisade at the very end. Near the end of the battle, with my Paladin as the last one standing, turns took excessively long as the game seemed to check every single one of my dead followers before getting to my Paladin's attack, which would deal 1 damage to the Palisade, then likewise the Palisade would deal 1 damage to the Paladin. After turn after turn after turn after turn of this, the Palisade was finally down to 2 HP while my Paladin still had 233 health left. Then the "Excision Failed" message suddenly popped up, ending both the battle and my run. What happened?

Are there only 3 forms for the Dragon boss? After noticing that it changed if you didn't beat it first try I locked the follower who gives you a free carp encounter so I could end up at depth 58 with 1/5 core health, and I bought/used it right before getting to that 3rd form, but after that point the Dragon stopped changing, and I'm wondering if that's just the stopping point or if adding a Carp encounter mid-final-battle broke part of the encounter.
In one run I had a Speaker, a Mirroring Flagbearer, and a Supplicant whose ability was randomized by Birthing stone into "In combat, whenever an adjacent follower gains stats, this follower will gain the same amount." But when the Flagbearer copy was summoned, only it received the bonus stats from Speaker--the Supplicant's stats remained unchanged.
In another run, I had a Sculptor implanted with the Mirroring aspect, but the clone's start-of-battle ability would not consistently trigger; it only happened around 20% of the time (depths 40, 44, 46, and 49 had the clone Scultpor produce no statues; depth 42 had the clone sculptor produce statues).
In another run, I used a Rebirthing Stone on Obelisk & its ability remained the same.
I feel like too many of the aspect implants are tuned towards non-support followers, while there aren't any that specifically support all-support strategies. And there aren't very many all-support strategies that don't involve Sculptor; that feels a bit limiting, compared to the wide variety of all-non-support strategies this game has.
