is that a challenge
They roll against eachother.
I have a theory... ||if he takes transcendence, will he instantly get shielded or does he have to wait for it to charge?||
He gets instashield like we do I think.
ok so for the moon v moon run are there any other rules besides only lunar items?
Lunar only run? That sound interesting.
like am i allowed to use artifacts
I'd say so, since shaped glass is no longer busted.
Guys
aight.
the mega drone on snow biome spawns on the easy dificulty?
jeez game
I dunno... command kinda ruins the thrill, and sacrifice will prevent buds from spawning at all.
With lunars only, you can 100% beat the final boss, since strides of heresy allow you to bridge the way back with no problem.
heavy judgment
With lunars only, you can 100% beat the final boss, since strides of heresy allow you to bridge the way back with no problem.
wait why would strides help
It will be harder because you can't get hopoo feathers.
"Can you not use the artifact of command..."
turns and looks at this community
"FOR FIVE MINUTES?"
i need my shift on huntress to get back, so i cant take strides
"Can you not use the artifact of command..."
turns and looks at this community
"FOR FIVE MINUTES?"
look man i just did a no artifacts no loop monsoon run like 15 minutes ago give me a break
and by break i mean command
no bazaar stage 1, this may be an issue...
Can huntress make it back with no movement items? I'd guess so with chain blinks, especially with purity. Purity is the MVP if you can't get normal items.
Its only me or magma worm frame is kinda weird?

frick chain blink im going normal
but yeah ill have to get a purity, maybe 2
Normal blink is death
normal blink is my life
Being able to spam balistas sure will be interesting.
I prefer the vertical mobility from the normal blink
^ exactly
If someone uses Artifact of Dissonance, can Mithrix appear on normal maps?
I like how phase blink won't interrupt my movement or attacks at all.
how do i get to the boss? im rex but i dont have any mobility items....everytime i kill my self i spawn at the lunar pod area....what the hell
Phase blink is way good for dodging attacks in combat. Blink is nice for map traversal, newt shrine
agh this pains me
if this were a normal run... that shatterspleen....
Mithrix can't appear of normal maps, he's a special boss like aurelionite and AWU @obtuse sphinx
Last night I did a "quick" captain run before bed, and got soft-locked on comedy island.
So stayed up until 5am for nothing.
Comedy island 
i havent got softlocked on it... yet.
Awu? thats the scavenger right?
alloy worship unit
OH, right
the scavenger is twisted scav
But yeah, neither can the 4 twisted scavengers.
However, the twisted scavengers aren't really unique monsters, and don't have logs. They're just special scavengers that spawn with lunar items.
About that softlock pod island. i almost got stuck there with the engineer my first run through. recorded it.
I managed to get off it with two hopoo feathers and transport mode, but I had to get far enough from it to not teleport back to it when I fell.
While the timer was counting down...
that soft lock is soooooo demotivating...
It is. Worse than the bullshit phase 4 hits you with.
why does everyone think phase 4 is so unfair and difficult
Phase 4 is more cinematic than anything else.
yeah basically
Because items ARE scaling, levels don't mean shit without them.
HEHE.... Phase 4 took me like... less than 5 seconds the first time i beat it.
Because the average player gets stumped by phase 4 like Mr. Streamer did.
dont mind if i do permatonic
phase 4 is the second easiest phase
does permenent damage mean no passive regen or no regen at all
also does eclispse 8 award anything
YES finally someone agrees with me
was using Loader, i just kinda... one punched him....
does permenent damage mean no passive regen or no regen at all
also does eclispse 8 award anything
nope
the easiest is the second phase
because the enemies are a joke in that zone
they're just kinda tanky
fourth is easier than second tbh
I was engineer at first, so my thing was sustained damage, not burst.
like if you get hit by the orb attack, which is the only dangerous one, you probably deserve to die
nah.
And amplifying items effects... are kinda his thing.
hmm... wait... phase 4 is when he takes your items right? not the run back to the ship?
yeah thats the item steal
just checking
i did a swarm command sac run and he one shot me
But yea, burst damage while ||he does the succ||
At this point, just go do sacrifice at bulwark's embry, if it's not fixed, then it's intended game design.
if you dont one shot him its easy
if you do its easy
Fuck a fair fight, fair fights wouldn't set off OSP with a single hit just because I don't have any mobility items or abilities.
Hooves! You need more speed.
energy drink > hooves
Oh, you mean beacons. They are largely inconsequential outside the teleporter event.
You can't sprint while attacking with most survivors.
Both are nice, actually.
You can't sprint while attacking with most survivors.
no i know but you dont need that much speed while attacking
i made a mistake trying to beat monsoon with the captain
Energy drinks don't scale well because of how they stack
i made a mistake trying to beat monsoon with the captain
pathetic yeah fair enough
i played swarm and got one shot in the 3rd phase
2 of the explosions hit me at once
dont play with swarm
ever
I could literally put Mithrix in depression by having enough goat hooves and... a chronobauble.
not without sacrifice
not without sacrifice
swarm with sac doesnt actually help
Avoid red whips like the plague though
Does swarm affect Mithrix too?
the drop is based on exp and guess what the exp is halved
Swarm with sac actually helps a lot.
you get the same stuff with twice the dmg dealt to you
and yes
I will gladly give up a minute or two just to walk back to the shredder to grind up my red whips the teleporter boss gave me.
because of the floor on item drop chance in sacrifice.
swarm does affect mithrix
Oh neptune.
that's why i got 1 shot
no achievement for beating the game on eclipse :(
i tend to build all my characters the same.
FOR THE MEEEEMMEEEE
remember: the chance they drop stuff cannot reduce below 5%, and most of the enemies you fight, the small guys, have around 5% drop chance
That's a lot of damage on phase 3.
Supposedly hooves are better than energy drink past the first drink
D O I T
you think im not gonna do it?
yeah, i had a glass and got hit by the spinning explosion thing from both of them
they were synchronized
wait, you only have 4 gestures anyway
Well, functionally, you only get at most a 7% reduction in drop chance from a lot of enemies using swarm + sacrifice. So a boss might be reduced from 37% to 30%.
But there's two of them...
btw, do scavengers only show up on the second loop?
you wont be stuck on comedy island any time soon with those items
I died by running into something after crashing through the universe and getting set to 1 hp.
what items should i take? im thinking a purity
Scavengers can show up any time, but their credit cost is insane so you probably won't see them until the third loop (or second with swarms active).
And enemies that can spawn in a given stage is decided when the stage starts, so just camping out on titanic plains won't make them show up.
the first one you kill drops the bag and only the first one per stage
Maybe 2 purities and something like the circles of power to boost your dps?
welp. im gonna go try something stupid
Purity has 0 downsides when you can't take normal items.
but first
circle of power what
Well... less logs. But other than that.
mercury thingy.
what
does anybody know if a right click build is viable on captain?
does anybody know if a right click build is viable on captain?
@slender flume no
Mercurial Rachis
damn, i wanted to try it
I think that's just random... unless placement is somehow decided by luck?
yeah i got it
has anyone else noticed the lunar coin farm potential with the good ol Gesture/Forgive Me Please/Soulbound Catalyst combo
I wish stacking that caused more circles to appear, it would be super-fun.
You mean... crashing your game? I don't think the doll drops coins.
it does
it does
and mul-T means no crash
@limber cradle the chance of lunar coins dropping is halved for each one the game spawns tho, so it may get less effective over time
yes but my Forgive Me Please exponentially multiply
Defiant Gouge looks like an upside though, since I can use those enemies it summons to pay for more chests in a shorter amount of time.
But I guess I'm back to playing other games until they fix softlock island, at the very least. And fill out the heresy set so I can be the heretic. And fix captain up.
yeah defiant is really good lel
Defiant Gouge is similar to Focused Convergence imo
how would you ever get stuck there if you know about it
Good early game, can get you rekt late game
I knew about it, but I fell on the path and it decided to teleport me to comedy island.
two more lunar items, these will be my last before moon. what should i take?
The game actively tries to put you there.
glass x2
okay why does the stupid prototype drone stop existing the moment I have to look for it
|| ||
Sacrifice if you want to cheese the unlock.
someone help please
lul
is there a feather cauldron?
pretty sure doll equip will drop items with sacrifice
unfortunately no. I have clover and squid turrets
Removing chests helps more drones spawn.
my first run of 1.0
But yea, owchie...
Right this friggin' Comedy Island stuff is ridiculous. My friend almost got stuck on that as Commando, I can't believe that's something that happens in the game.
People out here are saying that you can maybe jump far enough to respawn on the bridge...
im gonna take two more merchials... theres not much left
it respawns you here
If you can get on the lower platforms, you can get enough distance from the island to spawn somewhere else.
ive spent 10 minutes unable to get back, and that time is just ticking the gametime
i only got off of the island on my first run through due to being sniper class and backflipping against a slope to launch myself into the stratosphere
But with only a single hopoo feather... that aint happening.
however because it took me 10+ minutes to get it right the boss was too hard and I died
and ive gotten spoilers for the boss trying to figure out if this is legit or not
well
You can maybe run up the walls then? I can't really give much advice, the only way my friend got off afterward was by using Commando's tactical slide
very very frustrated
moon v moon run seems to have ended quite suddenly
Nice
AGAIN
I need some help
maybe i sohuld get transcendence so i can actually recover hp
Every time I play commando in 4 player monsoon I end up having a lot of trouble
I don’t struggle to do damage really but staying alive is scary
my take on commando is he is very item hungry early, to be impactful at all
Why are they always overloading hordes?
hes one of, if not the most item dependent character
but once hes got it...
the univserse falls before him
commando needs items to live
do artifacts need to be re-unlocked in eclipse or something?
or can they just not be used at all
no you just dont get artifacts
sad
at least sacrifice-remix is still active I guess
Because it's a challenge run, using the "remove challenge" buttons removes the impact of it.
I think Mul-T might be as much if not more item hungry than Commando with the nail gun.
So I’m currently doing an artifact for the first time, I started up a boss fight. But nothing has happened for about 5 minutes. I can’t damage the boss. What is happening
i don't like chests
suffer
So I’m currently doing an artifact for the first time, I started up a boss fight. But nothing has happened for about 5 minutes. I can’t damage the boss. What is happening
take the key
TAKE THE KEY
TAKE THE KEY
I did. Then I activated it on the boss
do it more
And then after that there were enemies spawning, and nothing else
GET THE KEY
MORE
MORE
I want a S U F F E R button to do 15 artifacts monsoon eclipse 8. (15 because remove command, this is hell Joe.)
kill the enemies, and than you will GET THE KEY
I have been. For 5 minutes
new key will drop eventually
it's possible you just didn't see it drop
and it's behind something
I’ve been looking around. But I’ll look some more
aw I've died to mithrix stick bombs like 5 times in a row now
i got slammed and wacked mid air by mithrix earlier today on a good run
how do i keep going over and over again
i dont wanna go to the last stage how can i avoid that
You can re-align the teleporter back to the planet
interract with the pillars of the teleporter
how do i do that
It probably should prompt you for that when you use it though...
it will say "the teleporter is aligned with the planet"
on the 5th stage?
yup.
It starts aligned with the moon. You have to re-orient it.
captains ultimates could use a buff
?
Jojo's a RoR reference.
Captain is my favorite streets of rogue character
is this pointed to restart?
yes, its pointed to loop
planet is loop, moon is finale
why
why
why, whenever i try a moon v moon run, do i always get a boss item stage 1
how do you re align the teleporter?
ah ok thanks
anyone got any idea what the proc coefficient on the captain's primary is
aight so what should i take? im thinking that im gonna need some trans considering the fact that i have no ability to recover hp at all
hey sorry, i got a question regarding how shotguns/shotgun-like weapons work. For items with a percentage to trigger, will each individual pellet of a shotgun have the proc coefficient or will the proc coefficient be based on the entire shot (so either some of the pellets might trigger an effect or all of them will)
the whole shot
they all crit or none do
not sure about other on hits if they're different from crit on his shotgun but I doubt it
pretty sure they're different, which is why i asked about the proc coefficient in the first place
crit is all or nothing, but i get variable bleed stacks off of the shotgun
@brittle jackal I believe each individual pellet gets a 1.0 proc, which makes it pretty good for stacking on-proc
yeah it's pretty nuts
and im assuming crits function a little differently, cause i know that for crits at least its either all the pellets crit or none do
@radiant oar that's correct
so how would crits and leeching seed apply to a characters attack who has a lower proc-coefficient (like MULTs nail gun)
you can see this in most multi-shot characters where it's rolled once per discharge (flurry, phase blast, etc.)
here we go, the moon v moon run has actually reached the moon
@radiant oar crit remains fixed at 10%, but the amount healed is scaled with proc coefficient. So instead of 8 heal on
proc Mult-T gets 3.4
finally beat it on monsoon
interesting. im assuming that then applies to normal leeching seed as well?
is it me or does merc feel significantly weaker? any good combos to keep his downtime minimal?
feels stronger to me tbh
no merc was nerfed to hell and back
@radiant oar yes. Other items are scaled differently, on a case by case basis. Some modify duration, radius, or % chance
i just feel like he has overall less cooldowns but if you mess up once you die
that's pretty much it yeah
increased attack speed decreases your flash travel distance
dps is higher, survivability is down
also it knocks back enemys a shit ton more
@radiant oar
would heal 0.4 instead of 1 on 
ah i see
but you can use that to your advantage because of merc's iframes
he scales much better with attack speed now
you can still animation cancel 3m1 with m2 but the timing is much tighter
less health, but exposed gives him even more iframes and his dash feels even BETTER now. I don't understand the slicing winds buff tho. You get something that enables you to do more damage with your next MELEE attack... on a 110hp character with no iframes?
it feels like his risk reward factor is skewed to be unfavorable
slicing winds buff is insane
i run it almost every game now
legitimately so good
you trade iframes for...more iframes and higher damage
slicing winds doesnt scale with attack speed like blinding assault does
god phase 1 done i have no dps
thanks @heady bluff 
see the thing is
you can abuse the exposed debuff from slicing winds + your m1 combo to get slicing winds off cd almost instantly
and in turn keep your m2 and shift off cd all the time
if you juggle your cds well you get ridiculous damage + shift always off cd by midgame
damn, new Merc meta it seems. People used to hate on slicing winds
so you just go fast instead of use eviscerate iframes
shift has iframes too
less tho, but ye
and you can get it off cd faster by bringing slicing winds
just because slicing winds is ranged doesn't mean you have to use it at range
a basic combo is to r > shift > m1 combo (this procs exposed and then reapplies it) > shift2 > m1 combo > shift3 > m1 combo > r > repeat
you can throw in m2 at the end of your m1 combo but the timing is tighter than it used to be
but if you get it right 3m1 hits just after m2, and your shift will proc exposed and reset m2 cd
@deft breach
frickin finally phase 3
aight, this is it. this is the breaking point. if i can get past this... i may be able to win.
but yeah phase 3 for multiple minutes? im probably dead
Phase 3 is phase 1 with flame columns and i think a little faster?
mithrix rush with only lunar items? i like it
tip for the columns
it doesn't hit you if you're on the big pillars
like with the ramps up to them
just chill up there when he does it and ezpz
D:
guess thats the end of that
what do you guys like stacking on cap?
Bleeds. A single blast can leave a target losing hundreds of hp a tick.
you think death mark was bad?
also if you can get a shattering justice, do so. Each blast will apply the armor shred.
honestly frickin death mark is a bit broken if you stack it with command
but everything is busted on command
Ummm.... Death Mark doesn't stack @ivory depot just duration
for command, i like voodoo d oll shenanigans, i can generate millions of gold and kill t he entire map without moving
has anypne beaten eclipse 1 yet
the boss taking your stuff is painful on normal runs but it's karma on command runs
build with
?!?
Ummm.... Death Mark doesn't stack @ivory depot just duration
no one shall escape the mark of death
the mark of death lasts eternal
in command runs, you can burst the boss down in seconds during the 4th phase
lol stacking it is kinda underwhelming tbh. so many other good greens
i haven't even defeated the final boss yet. I have been trying though
4th phase is so easy tho, you dont have to do the frickin instakill
3rd phase is always the breaking point for me
Many greens have lackluster stacking, but having one or two is godly.
how good is cap proc rate tho
there's a 4th phase
how the hell is 3rd phase harder than 4th phase
4th phase is 3rd phase except you have no items
how the hell is 3rd phase harder than 4th phase
4th phase is patheticly easy
4 is the hardest for me
4th phase he has... two attacks. a slow moving orb thing where you just... jump, and a minigun that can be dodged by moving in one direction, and deals low damage
i mean it kills you instantly but sure
chronobauble has best stacking of any green
well yes but hes also got like ATGs and tesla coils
4th phase is easy if you can dodge the balls. So... don't be
, I guess.
@idle copper
is op to be fair
3rd phase hes jumping himself all over the map, spamming flames, and spawning chimeras
Don't pick up tesla coils if you plan to fight Mithrix?
engis turrets keep the items for max cheese
pretty sure i blew up to my own kjaros
and iim not even sure how he managed to proc it
why does everyone have to cheese 4th phase
because cheese
its more cinematic than anything
If you don't get hit, you're okay.
I cant get past phase 4 on eclipse but I get that far every time
cuz the boss is pretty bullshit :v
Yo anyone else getting a glitch where Gorag's Opus won't activate?
but many are just as butterfingered when it comes to that phase as Mr. Streamer.
yes zirman
i survived a couple minutes on the moon v moon run against third phase
hes pretty crazy but it feels so sweet once you get his patterns and moveset down
Hitting the button, and it makes the noise, but nothnig happens
how are you supposed to play new merc
with captain, right
Yeah
as long as i have a bit of mobility hes fine
it's bugged
@thick ruin with slicing winds
Oh. Fun. Another glitch. Why'd they rush this update so bad -_-
he just needs to be bigger with abit more telegraphs
hes a small little guy who dashes around, doing insta-damage, and just blows you up if u werent fortunate .__ .
i'd prolly be okay with that
it was probably rushed by gearbox
Yeah, most likely
the fire column spam needs to be nerfed tho, as currently the strategy is basically just sit in the spot where he physically cant hit you
The whole "we gotta get the full release out by christmas or something blah blah blah marketing "
He's a dark souls boss, except you're not in Dark Souls, you're on the moon.
the other attacks are pretty fine but man just nerf that column spam its near impossible to dodge normally
Yeah, the strat for phase 3 is literally "sit on one of the 3 slanted blocks and run him around it until his hp is gone."
nerf the column spam and itd be a more fun and fair fight
And if the columns hit you, your mobility goes to heck and you die because you can't adapt to it.
ive been quite fortunate as to never having been hit by the column spam
and all ireally do is move to side, its liek a game of roulette
yep.
That's why so many die at phase 4, they are unable to adapt to no longer having their hooves, feathers and stuff.
thats possible to do but it so suddenly switches from "stay in the air to live" to "if you arent on the ground to quickly adapt you die"
Am i just spheshul or is "A glacier eventually farts" different between the in game and soundtrack version?
If you have the habitude of playing item-less, phase 4 is a breeze, he's no more dangerous than a magma worm that is agro'd on a drone.
@thorny sorrel Yeah I think so too
There's not that monologue in the middle (that I hate)
You just need to remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer, AKA don't go in his face as soon as he yoinks your items.
aka dont play loader
i wish it didn't have the voice clip yeah
My first Mithrix kill was a rush Loader game.
yeah my first mithrix attempt was also a loader command rush
I personally can't stand her auto-release punch
i got one shot on the first phase because i didnt expect the final boss to be actually difficult
boi was i wrong
Yeah, first two times he got me by surprise.
second time i came in prepared, and ran a commando command run.
On Monsoon, Mithrix is just one-hit wonder.
that was my first win
First one from his damage, second from panicking during phase 4.
Now I feel I have a decent grasp on how to approach the fight.
and than i had this run, the no loop, no artifacts, monsoon victory.
That;s a lot of items for a no loop.
i did do void
also i got a surprsiing amount of chests quickly using defiant, its so good
Idk why some people don't do void, unless they're speedrunning.
Void can be kind of stale if you're just doing a quick game.
its time consuming 
i would actually be dead if i didnt do void
but than again i almost died in void lel
They should rework Void. Takes bloody forever
Nowadays I only do Void if I am trying for an achievement.
its such a time sink just to attempt the final boss, thats kinda upsetting too
Not a very fun environment imo
Void is easy reds.
im not saying its hard
what should i stack as captain
its just... i wanna fight me some moon man
@vivid pier syringes, and kek
kek?
syringes and laugh ur way to the bank
@vivid pier kek is a new item for captain
I kind of wish after the first time you'd just spawn at the end of the bridge instead of walking around the whole area. It is atmospheric and impressive the first time, but it is a long haul otherwise.
oh?
\
Just stack command artifacts 😉
Also has anyone figured out a way to get more of Kek other than fighting your Doppelganger?
nope
also thats the only way to actually get the log
@dawn hatch yes,
+ 
and once you have the log you can get this screenshot
what rarity is Kek
what does it do
Who here knows when the switch update will come out
howd nanomachines get abbreviated to kek
Kill enemy shots.
thats kes not kek
owo
Turn elder lemurians into a joke.
^^^
okay, how nanomachines get abbreviated to kes
By the way, is the Captain's M2 as useless as I feel it is?
its good on stage 1 when thers a mean golem ready to shoot you
@dawn hatch it's pretty useless
friendly reminder that it stacks with attack speed which is why you need 50 syringes even more than normal
109775240987455036 VC 2 hosting NA
His shift is good at least.
yeah the shift is really good
the r is pretty fun and unique but you stop using them after like 4 stages
And his M1 feels really good to use, Hopoo did a great work with that gunfeel.
wait this isnt lfg-pc
and the m2 is just absolute garbage
bruh. hack some chests 🌰
How's the meta and criticism evolving on the captain's R, by the way?
besides hack
yeah
Do scrappers appear on command runs?
i dont think so
i stopped using hack after stage 4 as well
idk, is it just me or does it seem like.. gold is easier to come by after the balance changes..
Is it better to bring two Hacks or to do Hack + Heal?
Can you get KEK with command?
i like hack+heal better
i just didnt need to hack chests cuz i was getting enough money killing stuff
no, no kek from command
@dawn hatch personal preference really. Long game is better with heal since gold gets easier late game
Kek is only a drop, no command sir
I am liking Hack because it makes me feel like the Gold Key from 1 is back.
If you have command and get get KEK from your dopple, can you turn it into another red?
yeah money is pretty easy to get now if you get defiant
i dont understand why its called kek 
Or rather, Skeleton Key.
defiant + shrines of chance basically means you can just keep using them at no cost
@subtle latch you can, but you'd be shamed for passing on the OP red
i dont understand why its called kek :GWslippyPeepoH:
yeah i dont either just roll with it
i dont like it ;v
What is Defiant?
a new lunar item
the second best lunar in the game
What does it?
first being gesture
What is the first?
And is it the one you get for Monsooning Mithrix?
Oh, obviously.
purity
And is it the one you get for Monsooning Mithrix?
purity, reduces all cds by 2 seconds but reduces luck
Luck, as in a reverse clover.
Oh, that's... Neat.
can anyone give me a save file for the commando skills
i just tried 3 hours still cant get the shotgun skill its too much RNG
just do a million mountain shrines
What does Defiant Gauge do? Don't think I've dropped it yet.
i would know
Activates a combat shrine whenever you activate any shrine
only thing that's acceptable to turn Kek into with command is Shatterspleen
defiant gouge just spawns enemies when u itneract with a shrine
only thing that's acceptable to turn Kek into with command is Shatterspleen
uh
thats not how it works
so u can kill em for cash to shove back into the chance shrine
to spawn more enemies.. repeat cycle..
only thing that's acceptable to turn Kek into with command is Shatterspleen
Not how mafia works.
hows commando in <current year>
i havent played him ever since i unlocked... literally anybody else
commando still bad
oh okay
hes probably my third favorite character but a lot of people hate him
laughs in huntress onetrick
Commando is bonkers if you get him rolling.
no damage, phase round is still 💩 , bad mobility skill, grenades useless for flyers and hard to aim
Like, Mul-T levels of "Gimme enough procs and I'll shred this universe to its last atom.
@subtle latch every character is bonkers if you get them rolling 🤷♂️
thats why i never use phase round and grenades
and also cmon the rocket slide is so much frickin fun
its actually really good
Getting more then 2 gouges is death
Slide is cool, phase blast is 👌 , default R is fine. Still difficulty with clearing mobs (and single target dmg without items)
Who doesn't use rocket slide?
absolute bufoons
people who main commando are the real heroes
Use phase blast and slide bruh. If you use phase rounds, that's why your commando is bad.
hes not my main but hes one of my favorites
lol why did they give commando two useless skills
give him some love
at least buff phase rounds to stun, or increase its width or something. Maybe even some
-like procs would be cool
I don't really main Engineer, I just like the colour of the name. I play every character (Except Rex, still unable to use his shift for mobility)
why does mercenary crash the game
he what
mercenary shits the bed 70% of the time mid game
Mercenary what?
the game litterally crashes
aight than
What are you doing with your mercenary? Mods?
ok so anyone else have any have any other challenges? ill try moon v moon more later, its def doable i just gotta get through phase 3
just had my file corrupt earlier too when after unlocking the captain so im just done playing till the game gets patched
wanted to know if anyone else is having issues
ah that sucks
Chaos artifact, but you must use the enemies to kill eachother would have been fun, but flying bosses would take ages to kill.
ok so anyone else have any have any other challenges? ill try moon v moon more later, its def doable i just gotta get through phase 3
just this one
i havent had any crash issues besides.... "this"
Chaos artifact, but you must use the enemies to kill eachother would have been fun, but flying bosses would take ages to kill.
phase one mithrix 😦
i saw the reddit post about it lol
well uuuh, cool wallpaper
yeahhhh
very.. abstract
Defines the whole soulbound situation
ye
FMP is pretty balanced imo
voodoo is my favorite new item
just get it with souldbound
its pretty balanced as long as you dont take soulbounds
soulbound voodoos are my jam
friendship with tonic over
ah man frick you my tonic addiction will never end
+ 🎎 = balance
ghor and voodoos 
BALANCE COULDN'T BE ENFORCED
I didn't even think about ghor and voodoo
I feel like chronobauble has gotten even worse since now, if Mithrix takes your items then you’re pretty much screwed when chronobauble procs
i love that shit, i was immensely wealthy
Chronobauble is insane when used both against and by Mithrix XD
@buoyant thicket just had to proc that deathmark, didn't you
I feel like chronobauble has gotten even worse since now, if Mithrix takes your items then you’re pretty much screwed when chronobauble procs
proof chronobauble is godtier
as long as mithrix is the one who has it
i once had a run where the game gave me 4 chronobaubers, it was mildly upsetting
twas basically all my greens
lul
why would that upset you
friendly reminder that the last run i did before 1.0 ended in me getting chronobaubles from an order shrine
You need to embrace nihilism to unlock
's true potential.
on one of my runs I did double mountain shrine and I got chronobauble
4x
+ deathmark = gg
uh
115 baubles LMAO
thats not how mafia works
not how it works
i do think u need 4 unique debuffs
you do
yeah its 4 unique debuffs
and also 4 baubles isnt 4 debuffs, its just one longer debuff
is trolling
ok...
The first run I did in Artifacts 2.0, hours after the release, I got the "Spectral circlet". Possibly the first one to get my hands on the worst aspect of all. Quite the achievement.
it'd be cool if baubles slowed attack speed
then it might actually be good
@subtle latch p sure worst aspect is silence
The first run I did in Artifacts 2.0, hours after the release, I got the "Spectral circlet". Possibly the first one to get my hands on the worst aspect of all. Quite the achievement.
theyve been around a long time before that, but probably not. so yeah that sucks lel
is there something i did to spawn in 2 final bosses instead of just 1?
have swarms?
Silence is a 50% increase to all damage, right?
50% shields tho. Kiss your OSP goodbye
Are console prismatic trials the same as PC?
theyve been around a long time before that, but probably not. so yeah that sucks lel
But the celestial elite equipment was only data-minable, it wasn't obtainable in-game before Artifacts 2.0
no im pretty sure it was there, just missing a sprite
oh interesting, didn't know that
ok so i got a terrible challenge idea
rex
but its all the skills that consume health, and i cant use my m1.
monsoon ofc.
and ill probably use command otherwise this will be too painful
im not that good
why you bully me
you know what fine ill do it just to spite you
uh oh so i just realized
im getting diminishing return from this
uh oh
tfw your god run almost kills you irl (old run from like 2 weeks ago. went from 11 pm to 3 the next morning)
why tho
Where can I ask a question relating to the animated stickers? The stickers are fine and look great, but when I mouse over them, they get larger and get cut off. (What it looks like when I mouse over the Commando Sticker)
How do I fix this issue?
i wish i had my stats from my original 74 stage run
@ivory depot
im sorry how many?
all i have is this screenshot, two stages before it crashed
Going for the final boss playing eclipse is not recommended, correct?
im pretty sure you have to to unlock the next eclipse

it was drizzle cause i never intended go this far
i meant to end it around stage 20-30 at an order shrine
yo how'd you fucking NEGATIVE HEALTH AND OVER A BILLION GOLD
as preartifacts i did those kinda runs for fun
lol
= 
Nobody expects to spend nearly 300 minutes in a game.
that qualifies as a cursed image
yo how'd you fucking NEGATIVE HEALTH AND OVER A BILLION GOLD
@lunar dust who needs positive amounts of gold
Chaos is the one thing in this game that can scare me.
reality itself broke
the power attained was limitless
none could stand in my way
Ok so this run is about to break
except the awu from that stage 72 ss, it literally turned invincible
i dont know why but it did
oof
so i just let it be lel
I remember there was some person who spent literally 7 days at stage 1 as Acrid.
I am about to become so strong
two stages later it crashed, and i dont have the stats sadly
is the equipment beacon on captain any good?
no
depends on ur equip/ur teammates' equip tbh
Can be, depending on your item. Like if you have a Preon.
yea I figured
no
It is very situational and something you can't plan for unless you're using Command
weird how hard it is to get it though
how does it work
how about the hacking one then?
its pretty good
its better
hacking one is busted because of abyssal depths legendary chest
yea thats what I used it for
and you can hack a tc drone lel
that doesnt come up all that often tho 
and the tc 280
Can it hack Teleporters?
Sorry, not teleporters, shrines.
@ivory depot hack equipment drone
run good as done
yes, shrine of chances
my friend stole my abyssal legendary because I called dibs in vc and forgot to unmute my mic
i'm so salty that the captain's satelites dont press the stage 2 buttons, ended up being a waste
immense F in chat for me, lads
I use it in the beginning of the run on big chests too
Damn, it hacking Shrines of Chance sounds like a big mood.
yeah it makes ALL uses free
yeah shrines of chance are 🤑 with captain
so you are just guarenteed to get two items, free of charge
didnt know about shrines ima do that now
yeah its so good
captain was a little weird to get used too for me but once you get bleeds and more on hits he is stupid
stack syringes and on hits and you're good
thats just what we said
@drifting shore yes. not even playin'
okay that changes everything
Soooo good
whats the strat the two hackers or like a 1 hacker and a stun/heal?
generally it's either 2 hack or hack/heal
gotcha ty
yeah
The heal beacon is the same as bungus
And why would you want bungus on anyone that's not engie
ok so after some testing for my rex no m1 (all health draining skills) run ive found that the m2 is the hardest to pull an equal amount of health, shift is easiest, and the r is only worth it if you catch a lot of enemies
aight so i finally beat hte first tp boss after like 2 and a half minutes
this is gonna be a fun run, isnt it
Bungus is op. Stand there and tank hits on monsoon thanks to OSP
works for any survivor, just try it
so how much bungus does it take to achieve trhat
so how much bungus does it take to achieve trhat
yes
;l
is stun pillar able to proc from zapping
yall got order shrined?
@ivory depot understands the bungus combo
i mislicked once and it gave me 200 tougher times
i mislicked once and it gave m2 200 tougher times
@drifting shore
yeah that looks about right
however, i also had like.. 70 qax quils
which means i could no longer sprint jump
i have a video of me with 250 sprint drinks
Just had a run ended by going 2 fast on sand and ending up outside of the map...I'm so sangry
thats... a good idea
i should try that sometime
yep wetlands has no skybox reset so u can go over the outside where it doesn't reset you
man getting this feels like cheating but i dont care
and u will fall forever as your character is slowly morphed into a graphical abomination
tearing apart the fabric of reality
Question: If I were to go to ||the Cauldron Island on the last level as Captain||, would I be able to get back?
I don't have any mobility items, really. Some movespeed ones.
I know because I did it once. This was commando about 30 minutes in.
Question: If I were to go to ||the Cauldron Island on the last level as Captain||, would I be able to get back?

from the sounds of it you wont be leaving the softlock island
you may transcend but i will ascend
anyone notice a rally low per-hit damage cap on mithrax? I was hitting for like 1-2% of his HP with a fully charged punch as loader, but a single flame tornado shredded him for way more. Seems... real bad for single hit damage characters
so, uh...I jumped over to the item island on the final level, is there no way back?
another victim
what kind of items do you have or are available in the cauldrons
nothing for mobility
character?
over
yeah its over
lol
im sorry little one
comedy island 1, @proven delta 0
@proven delta you picked up Purity didn't you
the -luck just killed you on comedy island
w h e l p
mithrix
I've killed mithrix
his log aint guarenteed
I didn't kill Mithrix and I have his log, which is weird
It would be blacked out
i think its glitched cause i got it, and it says i havent killed him at all
https://i.imgur.com/4G9oRs3.png @sullen sable
ive beat him thrice
and it says ive never killed him
so uh
fun fact
this run does not mix well with clay templars
Yoooooo who was gonna tell me that the Commando alt skin is actually sleek af
Side note, of all the masteries I've done, Commando's was by far the god-damn hardest
artifacts or no? without its truely a triumph lel
it took me quite a while to get it myself
I used sacrifice and command, yeah
ah.
I am scum, this is true
which masteries have you done thus far
All my roles
nice.
I've gotten close with huntress a couple times without the aid of artifacts, but I died on stage 8 and stage 7 a couple times
how was it harder than artificer lmao
Com, Engi, Arti, Merc, Cap
truly heartbreaking
I had all the skills for Arti, her secondary skills are so damn powerful
i have never been a fan of arti
ah yeah, plasma bolt, definitely powerful
Especially nanospear
i only have like 4 skins including captain, but most of them were before artifacts
i managed to get all the skins before artifacts, but man was it a challenge
some characters it was a breeze
I have huge respect for the people that did it without artifacts, ngl, I just don't have the time or sanity for that lmao
commando merc and artificer though i'm not sure how i got artificer
I use all default with Arti when I do use her, the bomb buffs are nice and it feels more fun to me than the spear
others was pure hell
Spear pierces and freezes tho, it's so useful
the bomb is splash damage right?
I used artifacts for some other achievements, but my pride tells me that I gotta earn the skins
yeah bomb is aoe
Yeah, but her alt 1st is the same thing just smaller and more of them
artifacts make a lot of the achievements so much more bearable
and freshly buffed, at that
does that mean that near the edge of nanobomb's explosion enemies will take less damage
im not gonna touch eclipse with a ten foot pole
see I can hardly handle normal Monsoon at the moment
ill do stupid challenge runs instead
personally i like running the standard easy mode artifacts + vengeance and evolution
me neither lol i'm not good at the game but command + sacrifice make monsoon bearable
vengeance is by far my favorite artifact, especially with command
I wonder if Woolie is gonna do Eclipse (8) challenge videos
you have to balance your build perfectly, too much defense and the doppleganger is an unkillable foe, slowly whittling you down. too much offense and the doppleganger will one shot you
it just felt so... perfect
oh god
but like dang the captain doppleganger is op cause the microbot
really? i thought doppleganger one shots you regardless so its always just best to have all t he damages
.,.. actually nvm
how do you go about fighting the doppelganger
im being dumb ;v
he deletes your shift, he deletes your m2, he deletes A PREON SHOT
I don't think I've even unlocked vengance yet...
I haven't unlocked captain yet what's he like?
fun
honestly I feel like fungus is conditionally usable on captain because of the microbots
@woven pivot by not picking up genesis loop
That's good
no mobility, but he does an assload of damage
build crits + shatter spleen and shit pants
I was underwhelmed at first but he's actually pretty decent
Just took a little while to get the hang of
he might be up there as one of my favoriter characters
He's definitely very fun
the microbots kinda make the lack of mobility bearable from a defensive standpoint
man if you take mult double scrap launcher you can just skip reloads by using the retool
i may have to do a mult double scrap launcher run
i think it would be merc, commando/captain
but merc's stats got nerfed so hard
wow i wanna try that
yeah, the regen nerf especially, I'd say
my favorites are probably loader, commando, huntress, and now captain lel
they did NOT need to make merc commando with a sword
idk, I like the new merc
idk if i like the merc rework. i cant really use my "send it" mentality since i just get killed
i love the expose debuff
feels less brainless, harder to chain skills but more dmg
the expose debuff synergizes quite nicely with evis
and slicing winds is finally good
Anyway I'ma turn in for the night, cya!
feels less brainless, harder to chain skills but more dmg
that was pretty much their intention but now its more just "you mistimed a dash? there goes half your hp and your never getting that back unless you have heals!"
you could also get 5 stacks of Purity and break your r key
my absolute fav is huntress, mainly due to the mobility and the consistency
I've had literally one run as captain and it ended up being a god run so maybe this is bias but I like him too
huntress is fun if you want a fair run that feels like a good fight
loader is who i want when i want a fun run, be it the mobility or the pure destruction
captain is quite fun tbh
I just can't get into the right rhythm with Loader tbh
i just think maybe swap the shift and m2 and just... give him some mobility
it doesnt havent to be much
just something
huntress is nice because you can just sprint around and spam glaives and blink and win
yeah exactly
vs commando where killing a few whisps feels agonizing lol
🤔
glaives just evaporate wisps
I just kinda like doing the jump tech tbh
and they actually made it easier too
now you don't need to hit the sprint key again when you jump
you know i like that command lets you pick your items so you can do lots of silly shit but there's something nice about randomly receiving items that are all pretty good save like chronobauble
as for captain, I love his primary fire
feels almost cathartic
i feel like when you play command and say "i'ma build crits" you trap yourself in a build with no defense mobility or healing
and yeah that happened on my first captain run lol
i distinctly remember being on Rallypoint Delta and thinking, "huh, I have like 5 crit goggles and 2 predatory instincts, a scythe would be nice" and then I got one like a minute later
It finally happened. Enough of my friends own the game that I can reliably do a 4 person run.
but then there's those moments when you have 9 glasses, scythe, and predatory instincts and you get another pair or glasses
yeah I think I had like 12 pairs by the time I died on the same run
Also, the Captain is Kinda beastly. I dunno if he has higher DT than most, but it feels like he can tank some serious hits that normally only Loader and Engi can.
he needs it honestly
he has ZERO mobility skills lmao
actually speaking of captain
what exactly does that equipment resetting beacon do? does it reset equipment ONCE per deployment?
strange, he has the same health stats as Arti and Merc
it's a really good passive
oh, yeah, kinda forgot about that lol
are you a lizard dog thing?
for some reason Acrid always reminded me of a dog more than a lizard
A good ailen puppy. Yup
acrid in risk of rain 1 is just boost the fuck outta attack speed and BITE and let the stacking poison do its job
he be chomping
what is the best items to get on captain
Hey guys, my friend has a question
we were playing together (just us), and I got DC'd due to bad internet
I warned him about all of ||mithrix's|| tricks before he went into the fight, but he died on ||phase 4||
he's super angry about it and has asked me to ask this on his behalf
||is mithrix in final form supposed to do 1,300+ damage in one hit when youre right next to him and he does the left fist smash into the ground attack when on drizzle difficulty||
smash on the ground? thats not a final phase attack...
the fist smash sends out a bunch of projectiles
oh wait the orb attack
sounds like your friend got shotgunned hard
he mustve been hit by all 8 orbs spawning on him at once
and thats why you never get close to mithrix
yeah just zone him out
he got one shot
more great reasons to never get close to mithrix
he's using profanity
he wouldnt get one shot due to osp, he got 8 shot.
all 8 shots just hit him at once
well, didn't they make it so that there's a linger to OSP?
for multihits specifically, yeah
and same-frame damage
Question; how does my engi build look so far?
cool. new profile, so I don't have a lot of other items unlocked.
I'd recommend building some crit tho
I would, but no scythe or predatory instinct to make good use, so I think I might stack syringes and daggers
oh, actually, come to think of it, do the turrets also get their own totems from that lunar item?
that lunar item I picked up to see what it was, apparently it also powers up enemies lol
does any1 know how to get out of this island?
yeah, but you can still just double your damage output by getting 10 pairs of glasses
another has fallen victim to Soup Island
@fading skiff sorry, you might be just stuck. it's a design flaw.
@fading skiff that's p much a bug at this point
well, there it goes my run, 😦
wait
jump towards the main road and pray pretty much
you have wax quail. Try running and jumping as far as you can, you may get teleported back close to where you want
should i sacrifice my crits and teddy for more waxs?
huh, that sucks.
i will try, if it doesnt work, rerun
I got off with 7 red whips, good luck
maybe a gravity disc would help
yeah, no, it didnt work
was better with 8 wax than 4 was and a h34d
purity on artificer seems very strong
What is it?
cuts cooldowns by 2 seconds and reduces luck by 1
^^
so unless you have a clover you're never proccing anything again
but Artificer no longer has to reload (or at least the reload is reduced to 0.5 seconds) so if you do get that clover it's amazing
I think it's one of the harder unlocks without command artifact tho
yeah I'm messing around with it with command artifact rn and it feels way better than standard artificer
Might be worth on artificer actually, will proc less but shes so reliant on cooldowns. I'll try it out
definitely risky without command, feels broken with command
yeah I'd say that's an apt comparison, though I haven't played that much Furi myself
btw do yall loop before going for the final boss or just go straight from stage 5
I honestly think it's easier to do it ASAP since phase 4 would probably be easier
I looped a couple times for "The Calm" but I also wanted to try to cheese it so needed hella items
Artificer with the jump seems to be the way to go
beat the game on monsoon
ah, purity
That will always be a weird one
makes you not want to stack shaped glass
Why would you do that?!
I'll take my 8hp and 20 repulser plates, thank you very much!
so uh,
-Forgive Me Please
-Soulbound Catalyst
-Gesture of the Drowned
Would not recommend.
my game crashed after like 10 seconds
Oop
