:p
worldly perch
maybe i should play someone other than commando, see how it goes
polar anvil
Have fun. I recommend taking commando for getting clover to complete his alt R achieve too
worldly perch
fair enough
polar anvil
Plus his alt m2 wants an overload worm so that's also one thing you'll do
polar anvil
Nuh uh,not overloading magma worm,just overloading worm
worldly perch
oh
polar anvil
Prismatics force second boss to be elite,and magma worms can't be elite
(mostly because they look dumb with it)
worldly perch
game devs refuse to give us worm horns
urban walrus
if you're on 
or have 
activated then getting to 20 is much easier
tender girder
doing it with 
and 
will give you essentially a god run every run if u have consistent first loops
getting to 20 is so easy with that
stiff widget
FUCKING FINALLY
100% BABY WOO
but also holy fuck please give a more reliable way for monster logs
polar anvil
Now,do syzygy.
stiff widget
i don't feel compelled by my crippling perfectionism to 100% non-vanilla 
polar anvil
No you're sentenced to it now
safe vapor
You need monster logs?
There is a way to basically guarantee monster log drops without mods or cheats
Use your imagination
polar anvil
Stack purity for increased log drops :^)
safe vapor
Lol yes
Also, make sure to only start teleporter event after the last wave of enemies spawn, if 20 seconds go by and more enemies start spawning you're not done with the level yet
Imagine fighting the boss while enemies are still spawning
stiff widget
haha yeah that would be wild
leaden crag
lol
worldly perch
ok nvm every enemy in stage 6+ takes 2 full mins to beat
plain viper
Mood
I tried purity merc for the meme iframes but i did actually no damage
worldly perch
lmao 3 legendaries on stage 3
ayy got syringe and glasses printers, along with a scrapper
unreal egret
I just loudly exclaimed "ow you bitch" as I spent about five seconds carefully lining up a long range hacking beacon only to be bopped by a wisp the moment I went to click, only to miss the beacon's placement entirely
I woke up my kids
worldly perch
lol
civic citrus
Is syzygy different from the dilluvion mod?
dense pumice
It's part of the Diluvian mod afaik
It's just Diluvian + Eclipse 8, and some other extra numbers
civic citrus
I got the mod and haven’t seen it. Do you have to obliterate on diluvian to unlock it or something?
worldly perch
first impressions of huntress is that she's pretty weak
dense pumice
You need to beat Mithrix on Diluvian to unlock Syzygy iirc
civic citrus
Got it
worldly perch
slow firing, long teleport cooldown, not great movespeed
novel sorrel
@worldly perch her alternate abilities fixes all of that pretty much
Id still say shes better than command even with base abailities though
worldly perch
eh, with command i can usually get every chest and beat the boss in stage 1 by halfway through easy, but huntress just kinda strolls
novel sorrel
Since you dont have to aim with her, try to focus more on movement. Use the glaive to weaken groups of enemies and place the arrow rain where it hits bosses
dense pumice
Glaive is your main damage dealer yeah
worldly perch
yeah i'm trying that, it does ok dmg
not sure how i'm gonna land 6 killing blows with one glaive while lock-on arrows exist
quartz saffron
it's not that difficult,
vs wisps it's pretty straightforward
my friend got it by accident, wasn't even long into a run
dense pumice
Or you can get a friendly Acrid if you're having problems with it
novel sorrel
You can also get it oretty easily after getting the 12 crowbars on her
worldly perch
it's kinda annoying stage 3 when you can't 1shot wisps, so i'll try it earlier
alas, run ended the same way as the past 5
quartz saffron
you could also try using the glass artifact
safe vapor
it is really easy to do on stage 1
worldly perch
yeah, if i'm really desperate i'll wait on stage 1 until 6 weak enemies spawn
safe vapor
dm me your steam id ill play acrid on stage 1 and well get it
worldly perch
i would, but after that run ended ima go to sleep, 5am and such
safe vapor
for brass contraptions, move clockwise around them always
plain viper
Glass & swarm make it really easy to get the 6 kills
worldly perch
how do you even unlock artifacts?
plain viper
Stage 5 you enter the codes you find scattered across stages & other places
worldly perch
neat
safe vapor
theres a terminal hidden underneath the stage
plain viper
Fun fact about brass contraptions if they're diagonally above you they can't hit you if you're standing still
Also fun fact all other enemies can still hit you
worldly perch
do you just find the code near the compound generator or
safe vapor
the artifact codes are hidden throughout the game
dense pumice
There's one code on almost every map
dense pumice
16 codes total, You need to remember them or screenshot them or something, and then enter the code on stage 5
quartz saffron
some codes are in plain sight (such as the one next to the artifact portal)
for some codes you need to have good enough mobility to get to
some codes have their tablets in multiple pieces
and for some codes you need to look in other places
safe vapor
Well worded hints
polar anvil
slow firing, long teleport cooldown, not great movespeed
@worldly perch slow firing is fixed by getting attack speed,3rd abiltity has an alt with faster cd,movement speed is the same as everyone else
safe vapor
+sprinting during m1
half tendon
Dont listen to glaive apologists
Your m1 is your main damqge source on huntress
drowsy flame
glaive is good early, scales okay but m1 takes over

All huntress abilities are good, but overall cd ones just contribute less

What was that thing about using artificer against mithrix
quartz saffron
art has an easy time cause she can float in the air, freeze him and executing also works on him
pearl needle
soo um i have a goat hoof ,when mithrix take all my item ,he take my whole godamn leg i suppose
quartz saffron
that also happens when a printer/cauldron/scrapper takes it
if you have a shield gen you can have ghost legs https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/559901453834256404/643049484686852127/1.PNG

Grab ion surge and dunk mithrix from above
quartz saffron
it would be absurdly op again
plain viper
What was sticky pre nerf?
half tendon
Think both its damage and chance to be procced were adding up with every stack
quartz saffron
correct, the dmg would also increase with stacks
finding a sticky printer meant that you hit a goldmine
the item's log reflects that

no order shrine 0/10

frick you i had 15 missile launchers
ivory depot
order shrines are fun tho
thats my arguement
ivory depot
yeah sometimes they are stupid but somtimes you get some really fun stuff
wild trout
i also had 2 clovers somehow
ivory depot
this one was a fun one i had, i could literally fly with my roll bc i had next to no cooldowns
also all engineers tremble before my bungus
ivory depot
yeah same with commando
wild trout
i did 2000 damage every time the bleed ticked
ivory depot
have you seen commando with gorag and bleed?
one time i got gorag and one tri tip first stage and i beat the first stage boss in like 5-10 seconds
wild trout
lmao
ivory depot
and those were my only items
its so strong
wild trout
ye
i bassicly had garrentedd proc on everything because of my 7 ukeles meat hook and 2 clovers
ivory depot
yeah
wild trout
i just had to kill one thing and i could be afk for the rest of that stage
ivory depot
oh here was another fun one
i actually had a build
this was the only time i actually cleared the stage
ivory depot
god no
wild trout
also you get full health back every time you hit something whit that lol
ivory depot
not that it mattered with 42 hp lel
wild trout
lmao
well that would kinda be perma oneshot protection
unless the game doesnt like you
ivory depot
yeah i basically did have permanent osp but things still slipped through, bc, ykow, its stage 24

why stop at 20

Your primary is a shotgun, even when it is fully charged

I died before portal because i stop moving to type a message and die to AoE.

just complete a monsoon run without command and you'll have redeemed yourself!

how has the community been reacting?
dull ingot
same ol
true portal
just the same?
No rants from people angry they can't nuke him during vaccum, or Engi turrets not keeping items anymore?
raven lichen
It seems easier now, so more reasonable to complete on a normal run. It is annoying that he breaks if you kill him too quickly though. Nothing like losing all your items, and giving him a phase change at the same time. Guaranteed death basically
true portal
That is to say the item return on his death is bugged?
tired axle
i'm gonna try a really dumb run: I'll take one of each item and the activate the shrine of order on the final stage
tired axle
i should not have activated those mountain shrines

o no

when you finally realize you can HOLD m1 when using harpoons...
rather than spamming back and forth between shift and m1

gotta love free lunar shop on stage 1 with visions as acrid

phase 2 is the easiest if you are well prepared and the hardest if you are ill-prepared
radiant ingot
i aint even going to mithrix no more, fight feels cheesy from both sides
mithrix looks like he's drunk and you only die if you just happen to get hit by his arbitrary strikes
and right now it only feels viable to just cheese it with bridge strat on phase 3. there's no reason to set a single foot out there only to get blasted to bits when you can just royally capacitate on his ass till he ded
winged briar
the fight is super cheesy and garbage but i like doing it in multiplayer still
at that point he just feels like a raid boss
radiant ingot
i just checked the new phase 3 on drizzle and instantly died. when descending the bridge. how's that supposed to be fair, lol, especially on monsoon
faint python
wrong server
lapis cosmos
Yeah boss fights aren’t this game’s strong suit
radiant ingot
i also dont know how other people do it, but i feel like OSP is never there to save me
there's simply too many things trying to kill you for it to do anything at all it seems
i was checking a death frame by frame in sony vegas and literally in 1 frame i got hit twice, so, yeah
chrome hedge
as in, 2 damage taken numbers? o.o
radiant ingot
this is the frame right after my health being at near full
you can see the 725 and 644 on the right
chrome hedge
oh, yeah... OSP only kicks in for damage that would be 90% of your total health pool or more
radiant ingot
yeah but that's why i was saying
since there's always a flurry of projectiles after you, it's nigh useless lol
at least it feels like it
chrome hedge
It's really just a thing that keeps you from getting instagibbed by Mithrix pizza cutter or a malachite/celestine attack.
most people agree OSP is not very well designed
radiant ingot
maybe if there was 1 sec invulnerability
but i guess that'd be easy to exploit in a game like this
but it being as it is right now, other than the stuff you mentioned, it serves no purpose. you can't physically do anything when you get hit twice in just a millisecond
neon dagger
It's supposed to be a hidden mechanic, but people were relying on it enough they added a marker I guess. Best to not think it's even there.
It could do with a rework or something.
radiant ingot
i always play like any hit could be my last
neon dagger
It's one of those relic features from early development, devs have mentioned not being too happy with it as well.
radiant ingot
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i imagine it has more importance when using shaped glass... if that even still works. haven't picked it up yet lol
neon dagger
They removed OSP from Shaped Glass. Good riddance.

It also just dawned on me how good Forgive Me Please is

wall is the new soup confirmed
yeah they are all great besides her biting embrace
its just chronobauble with a useless death effect
eternal parrot
Naw, it does apply the Runan frost effect. Which stacks with Chrono and is nice for Death Mark. I’m not saying it is great, but it is better than Chrono
ivory depot
so its a different useless slowdown
ivory depot
well, i will admit celestine is useless. but malachite (the spikes) are great
raw snow
silence between strikes is OP on mul-t, it lets you heal 1/2 of your hp every time you alternate equipments
ivory depot
silence between two strikes is great if you are fine with the half hp shield
eternal parrot
I hate the malachite one. It’s good for melee characters otherwise tho the spikes are negligible. And they are pretty negligible anyways, they don’t hit super hard
raw snow
like as an example, if you're at 450/700 HP, you switch to silence between strikes (SBS), you have 350/350 HP and 100/350 shields, you switch off of SBS, game sees you have 100% of your HP, puts you at 700/700 HP
it's crazy

overloading worm only spawns on the abyssal depths or sky meadows, at about the same spawnrate as a scavenger

I seem to always run out of ammo

arty's all about just waiting until your abilities are off coolldown basically
also, primarilly use your secondary, not your primary

if you use flame instead of ion you can keep attack nonstop with arti

just got artificier a few hours ago lol
muted spade
yes, ion bolt is one of arty's unlockable skills

hey i'm sorry but at what stages does the overloaded worm tends to appear?
and is his appearance affected by other items or something because...
it appeard in a 20 stage run with huntress since i think stage 10
and i am in stage 14 with commando and it hasn't appeared
since it appeared in the huntress run it was very common for it to appear
i just want the skill ;(*
muted spade
only in abyssal depths (stage 4) and sky meadows (stage 5)

i kinda feel bad using artifacts to get mastery on some characters but it is fun to struggle in monsoon one regular run and then rips its sphincter open with artifacts
quiet kraken
yes
a friend and i had a frustrating afternoon because he didnt want to do artifacts for a mastery run
it was very enlightening as to how bad we actually are lmao
woven citrus
lol i was able to strugle though and get mastery with mercenary without artifacts so i guess i can treat myself a little bit
quiet kraken
my speed right now is more drizzle/rs on a good day, he can monsoon solo sometimes but hasn't solo beat the game on monsoon yet
i think i have yet to beat mithrix on rs lol
woven citrus
yeah. i need to beat the game on monsoon but for now i will try to get mastery on a few characters. i might only use artifacts to get it on 2 characters though because it feels a little cheaty
wary haven
You just need to get a good run and move quickly through the stages. It is a bit harder now, if you are trying to obliterate yourself to get it, since you need to do 8 stages instead of 7.
woven citrus
i had a damn good run where i got 2 red items from 2 regular chests in a row and then got to stage 7, beat the boss but died to fire cause i had no healing items

@manic remnant use the gamepedia wiki. The fandom wiki is both outdated and also bad
wary haven
Is the barrier* removed? :/
turbid nymph
nice. they said they made him invincible, durring the start of the phase. i guess there are Few frames where he can still be damaged
wary haven
Yeah, I noticed that once. :/
Took like 1/6 of the health off of one of the two of mine once.
manic remnant
Doesn’t take much it seams, like 5 ice bands maybe a few crowbars and a royal capacitor does wonders
wary haven
What you also can do is get fuel cells with that royal capacitor and have all of your charges regenerated. Then after he takes all of the items blast him with all of your charges.
molten cradle
Problem is, you can force Moon Detonation, but Mithrix still does the item steal
wary haven
Note: If all of your charges are not regenerated then when he takes the fuel cells the charges of your equipment are set to 1.
delicate moat
was really hoping that lightning strike would cause the game to crash
urban walrus
speaking of equipment, how do I unlock Gesture of the Drowned fast and what do hermit crabs look like?
polar anvil
Artillery crabs
urban walrus
I see.
polar anvil
Easiest would be alt grapple loader or normal boop rex
molten cradle
Hermit Crabs are the artillery crustaceans that spawn in Stage 4, Abyssal Depths
However to yeet them off the cliff for the achievement, you'll have to loop for Titanic Plains, since they can start spawning there after looping
urban walrus
and I have neither alt grapple nor REX
molten cradle
You can use Primordial Cube to move them along
civic citrus
Test
urban walrus
I can see your message
molten cradle
Doing it fast is kind of difficult
urban walrus
Would a more accurate term be "less slow"?
molten cradle
Er
polar anvil
I've said the fast
molten cradle
You've got Artifacts?
urban walrus
Command and Sacrifice
molten cradle
Perfect
Take those on Drizzle, and just blow through the game
Make sure to tag a Newt Altar on Stage 5 to force Titanic Plains on loop
And grab a Primordial Cube and some Fuel Cells to do the job
urban walrus
would Swarm also work?
molten cradle
Swarm can, but you're asking for RNG to hit a blue moon here
urban walrus
fair point
molten cradle
Oh wait
No that one works, I was thinking of the wrong Artifact
Mistook Swarm for Kin
urban walrus
if twice as many of them spawn it means I only have to take half the time sending them off the cliff
molten cradle
Yup
Also, don't take any offensive drones or anything that can auto kill things for you
urban walrus
that's an obvious one
I'd say no GotD due to the auto-firing of equipment but that's what I'm trying to unlock
molten cradle
Yeah, in that case, avoid things like Resonance Disk, Sac Dagger and ATGs
Accidently picked up Disk when I was looping for the achievement, and it ended up obliterating the Hermit Crabs whenever I got close
Since I killed a bunch of stuff beforehand

ok continuing was a good idea, got the 15 boss challenge and found an ice aspect

Lunar coins are no longer really a problem with command imo, just find a blue portal and get the thing that gives you more coins on obliteration

Yes.

I can't help but think bungus isn't going to help me out too much later in the run

walking turrets are really good
esp on eclipse 5+ when healing is cut in half; they know how to circle enemies and they can double jump with hopoo feathers + built in slow debuff

bloody hell brass contraptions have ended 80% of my total runs

molten cradle

woeful karma
remember to jump
worldly perch
i go by the strategy of "try not to get hit"
molten cradle
brass contraptions fire from right to left, so running left around them, actually helps throw their accuracy off
mossy garden
if you run in a clockwise manner, so to the left, unless they are super close they cannot hit you ever
thing is, running straight into an overloading elder lemurian isnt a strategy either
brass contraptions arent dangerous at all but they become annoying in big hordes because of their high attack stat
worldly perch
yeah there was a brass contraption and overloading elder, and i was on a tiny platform in stage 5
got hit while about to fall off onto solid ground

Ngl I feel like mithrix is a little too difficult now
quartz saffron
if you are having trouble you could always just stay near the ramps
worn orchid
Yeah but I don’t want to have to cheese a boss in order to beat him ya know
quartz saffron
understandable
jaunty coral
The first two stages are the same aren't they? I thought they just just took away the ability to cheese him by being strong enough to oneshot while he hoovers up your collection
polar anvil
Yes
worn orchid
The problem is is when you got a god run going, he yoinks all of your items and mobility and you try to run and shoot him but he can just walk up to ya and one shot you
pseudo summit
But you can just use 4 sawmerangs and body slam him before he can do that
Or get shaped glass lol
jaunty coral
Yeaaah is hard. I've started actually taking milky chrysalis just to stay out of range and steal a few items back. Been valuing drones higher too now, just as distraction fodder. He's basically impossible after looping at all
rare meadow
there should be an alt secondary for captain
leaden crag
alt m1 for engi first tho
polar anvil
no
leaden crag
why
polar anvil
its made to be shit so you rely on turrets
leaden crag
yea but it's not supposed to be so shit that you literally don't use it
his m1 should slightly buff things he hits
so you use it on the turrets
that way he actually does something while sitting in his barrier between his turrets
fierce epoch
jesus that irradiant pearl is gonna drive me crazy
60 freaking trades in a single run
60 freaking pearls
leaden crag
I have irradiant pearl but no normal pearl log lol
fierce epoch
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Spent more than 200 lunar coins for nothing
plain viper
Only gotten 2 irradiants so far myself, woulda been 3 if the pool hadn't yeeted the pearl into the abyss
warm rune
Question, poison or blight
pine iris
either, I like blight
lime pilot
warm rune
Aight cool am using poison to unlock the 1000 times skill but will switch back
dull ingot
if you get purity then def blight
warm rune
Wait purity's actually good on a character?
pine iris
purity is good
tired axle
it also seems pretty good on engi
dull ingot
eh
tired axle
basically zero cd missiles
dull ingot
engi is actually ok with proc though
pine iris
get a purity on merc=flight
purity on arti=well, purity on arti
purity on acrid=nom
ashen ingot
for a monsoon run, is there a better choice between engineers utility skills, or are they both viable?
shrewd gorge
acrid plus purity is literally a machine gun
leaden crag
can anyone give me some general advice on how to play artificer?
I've been trying to play her recently but Im absolutely terrible at playing her. I feel like I'm doing something wrong, but I'm not sure what.

Wanted to say after being unable to play the ROR2 update for awhile due to work I was delighted with a gift on the final stage. || Coalesence got me tearing up on a Tuesday. Not funny, Cried.|| Like hearing the piano notes of Gwynn's theme in Soul of Cinder's.
safe hare
Can ceremonial daggers proc themselves?
tired axle
yes
raven lichen
If they kill something. Anything killed by you or your effects creates daggers. Same with wisp explosions.
tired axle
it's not a mod
i just used cheat engine
it's just a regular missile drone
it can shoot and it can fly

night badge
Who can help me with 100% calculated
tired axle
use command, get royal capacitor and a bunch of crowbars
night badge
Wait what’s command get
tired axle
command is an artifact that allows you to choose your items
night badge
Wait how do I choose the items with command
tired axle
whenever an item would drop instead you get an essence of the same tier. when you interact with it a menu will pop up which let's you choose your item
night badge
Oh
sage lava
night badge
lol I just got 100% calculated by joining a drop in server and they just destroyed the boss in like 2 seconds
fierce epoch
this was surprisingly easy
I should try that with a TC-280
junior rivet
So. Just to spice things up. Can someone pick a character for me. I always use huntress and I want to try something different
brisk quiver
Captain
junior rivet
Captain isn't available on console yet
lapis cosmos
acrid
junior rivet
Sounds fun. What items go good with him
dull ingot
quick question:
im trying to play on Monsoon,
- what are the average time for each stage(like 3-5) or like i've heard like reach stage3 before the 10th minute is good
2)and how many items on average should i have for stage 2-5 ?
raven lichen
Instead of a hard time, just full loot until its getting unreasonable. Running across the entire map for one chest is silly, but skipping 2-5 items because the clock hit 5 is also a bit silly. Difficulty goes up 15% for each completed stage, so practice your pathing through them and you can clear usually 6-8 mins, but it depends mostly on your mobility. Usually my stage 1 or 2 is 5-8 mins because they are small, 3-5 get a bit longer, 10-12, and then you have enough movement items you can start clearing fully in 5-7 mins again.
Stage 3 by 10 is just for the preon unlock, in reality its so fast that you end up under leveled with a small item count, so the 0.15^3 difficulty increase from stage count is pretty brutal.
dull ingot
so like get a few on stage 1, spend a little more time on stage 2 and 3?
raven lichen
Usually yea. Movement items are big priority in shops since they speed up looting and help you dodge better
I take goat hoof over crit even if i have under 5 or 6
dull ingot
how many hoof is good enough, 5-6?
raven lichen
To be honest you could probably get away with rushing stage 1 and 2 and making up on 3 4 5, but usually i just full loot them.
5 is enough, 6 is like 98 or 99% movement speed increase and i like how close it is to 100 haha
dull ingot
ill try
junior rivet
@lapis cosmos good call on acrid
raven lichen
Good luck! A big thing to keep in mind is that waiting for money for a chest is ok, it means you are stronger then what the game is spawning. But if you have money, don't bother constantly killing. The extra cash does you no good, so get some cash, and then loot until you need some more before focusing on fighting again.
quiet kraken
that sounds good, but I always end up dying when doing that. my dodge game is probably just garbage
raw snow
quick question why does everybody call it being shotgunned when you get 1 shot by beetle queen's saliva blast
raven lichen
Because one shot protection would save you from a single instance of big damage, but the spray of pellets similar to a shotgun blast hits enough times to fully kill you despite OSP existing
raw snow
it felt weird because the wisps have like an actual shotgun spread of little pellets as their main attack
the logic makes sense though
I can accept it
wild trout
i just had a beetle guard ruin a captain god run by sniping me out of the air while said beetle guard was also in mid air
dull ingot
welp manage to finish 2 loop on monsoon before fighting the final boss, but that last phase's been screwing me over 3 times in a row

@dull ingot it gets easier
jagged sparrow
When you die in ror2 and you don't have the entry for the enemy that killed you does it say killed by ??
dull ingot
any tip for commando? cant even beat stage 1 on normal mode
do i really have to play on drizzle and unlock his load out first? cause default loadout is quite garbage
safe vapor
Yeah unlock stuff in easier difficulties first
And commandos alt kit in general is really good yep
dull ingot
what stage does overload worm appear on Drizzle, 20+?
safe vapor
Nades are great
You'll probably see one before stage 20
Mountain shrines also will make them more likely
Rally point, both stage 4s and stage 5
I feel like any time I've seen an overloading worm earlyish in a run was with 3 mountain shrines
urban walrus
a thing: take , add about 15-20 
s, grab a Royal Capacitor, and put one 
on top. You now have Lightning Eyes of Doom.
lapis cosmos
I once had a run where capacitor was basically rapid fire, no command

I need to man up and try 
without one of these days

I thought the same thing but I got 2 mastery skins today

is character development done or are they going to continue to release more characters? I know there are empty slots was wondering if it'd be dlc or what

so uh i was able to hit every halycon beacon before aurel spawned and it instantly dropped the seed and gave me the portal up while he was up and fighting
i dont know if this is an intended mechanic but it allowed me to dip without having to fight him

we will probably fine out on the 12th @glossy iron
they are showing stuff off for ROR2 at some gearbox thing

any one know of any mod that would make moving pots on aqueduct less excruciating?
outer canopy
safe hare
just completed my first loop on monsoon without artifacts
dull ingot
@celest tinsel use turrets or beacons

i dont play captain or engi often so thats not a very good option. unless there is a way to summon beacons as loader that i haven't heard about

and then I got instamurdered by a void reaver this game makes me question my fucking sanity

welp, there goes the last hour of my life
died to a situation in scorched acres after looping with:
3 grovetenders, over 10 greater wisps, 4 clay minigun enemies, about 10 beetle guards, and an untold amount of lesser wisps

Use it as a finisher
hearty violet
also the downtime shift causes when you build movement speed and dash 30 meters away from an enemy
hard to stick lol
shift only does 300% so i gotta stick to do more dmg. Not great by itself
alpine spoke
Do glasses, tougher times, tri tip dagger actually max stack to 100% or is there fall off?
alpine spoke
What is the point of diminished return on the teddy bear. So I'm guessing do 7 daggers and 10 glasses for max trigger?
polar anvil
Normally yes
quartz saffron
and 
give 5% crit each, so if you have one of those you only need 9 glasses
shatterspleen also gives that one time 5%
tired axle
also tri tip is affected by proc coeffiency, meaning you need more on characters like mul-t
woeful karma
10 tougher times is already 60% iirc
tired axle
fair point
forest fog
is this a joke.
quartz saffron
yes, and mithrix is the one laughing
woeful karma
that sounds like a shrine of the mountain situation
flint wave
I have a question for you guys, what 3 artifacts do you use the most?
forest fog
command sacrifice and swarm 
tired axle
same
flint wave
Nice
woeful karma
Sacrifice, Swarm, Enigma
quartz saffron
I like dissonance and metamorphosis
tired axle
what's your least used artifact?
tired axle
for me it's frailty
quartz saffron
pretty much all of them, I very rarely do a command run to try out some weird shit
forest fog
I just sometimes like to turn my brain off and just have a god run for free
quartz saffron
but for the most part it's just those 2 for me
forest fog
numbers go brrrrrrrr
karmic rover

I thought this was gonna be the run
For the fuckinnnnnnnnnnnn win on Monsoon
No I get bonked by a Chimera
I didn't realize it bypassed one shot protection because it's 4 shots or w/e
I just thought it was counted as one 
ivory depot
yeah if you get hit by a walking chimera you are basically dead
lapis cosmos
I swear enemies in this game are more deadly than bosses
ivory depot
...besides mithrix
lapis cosmos
mithrix isn't that hard
sometimes you get elder lemurian horde of many on stage 5 and just die frame 1
ivory depot
hes mostly an endurance test, and thats what ends it on a lot of runs for me personally. im chipping away at his health and one mistake instantly removes my osp, and oftentimes i dont have a lot of healing
yeahhhhh ik the feeling
lapis cosmos
it honesly feels like you cant do anything sometimes
ivory depot
hey wanna see something stupid about horde of many scaling?
this screenshot and that screenshot are 8 seconds apart, same stage.
look at that hp difference
like my god
valid oasis
Horde of many may be quicker to kill but it’s also much more likely to kill you. I’d say that’s the trade off
earnest kindle
Quick question, do your drones teleport to you when you start ||Mithrix|| or do I have to wait for them to catch up
tired axle
i think you have to wait
earnest kindle
ffs lmao
tired axle
but beetle guards seem to teleport
valid oasis
I think it’s more like beetle guards die and will respawn on you
tired axle
could also be the case
smoky nexus
but his uppercut is unpredictable 
earnest kindle
I had 12 bloody forgive me not's I could of just stayed away
but nooooooooooo I just had to punch
tired axle
can't blame you, punching is fun
ivory depot
punching is indeed fun
earnest kindle
welp, I'll try it again later, at least now I know this will do it
bitter cedar
i just realized there's an unused artifact code in the credits
that's sort of interesting
ivory depot
some people are already making theories on how it may be the orgin of this game and you have to reach the artifact gate with all artifacts to actually use the code
but its probably just unused
...probably.
tired axle
that doesn't seem to difficult to test
tired axle
you could also just cheat, if you're just doing it for testing purposes anyway
tired axle
yeah
ivory depot
for now, at least. they may add an orgin-like artifact for 2 later
tired axle
isn't origin pretty similiar to vengeance?
ivory depot
yeah but instead of a doppleganger its an imp horde
with a unique imp miniboss thingy
ivory depot
yeah it is
probably a bit more dangerous than the dopplegangers because the dopplegangers here are a bit... dumb.
tired axle
i think that's an understatement
ivory depot
well, besides huntress with ballista because she just never misses
tired axle
i never actually tried playing huntress with vengeance before
probably shouldn't in that case
ivory depot
yeah it can be a bit scary if you arent prepared
leaden crag
of I'm trying to get loader mastery should I go for mithrix or obliteration
ivory depot
punch that moon man in his moon face
crystal bone
equip drones are so nice
ivory depot
yeah be careful where it aims tho
ivory depot
no money = no chests = no usage for recycler = no switch = no damage = softlock
tired axle
if i get an item like razorwire maybe...
ivory depot
yeah youll want that...
or just use a mod to cheat in an equipment from the start and dont use enigma
or just cheat in an equipment if a softlock does occur
tired axle
that's way smarter
crystal bone
equip drones with the dronesInheritItems mod are amazing
I wanna set a PFM drone up soon
ivory depot
but is the power too much
can you handle such greatness?
...can your pc handle it?
crystal bone
getting like 30 fps when i'm not pressing m1
ivory depot
fun
ivory depot
...the crash draws near
leaden crag
can anyone give me some tips on playing loader
ivory depot
swing fast punch fast kill fast
tired axle
punch things
ivory depot
you are the strongest character earlygame but will suffer the most against the moon man
leaden crag
the punch seems very inconsistent
crystal bone
@leaden crag use your shift
ivory depot
melee without iframes like merc, melee without dot like acrid
but you do have punch
tired axle
it deals more damage the faster you're moving
leaden crag
like sometimes it one shots bosses and sometimes it does like no damage
leaden crag
yea
ivory depot
the faster you move the more damage it does
leaden crag
I know
ivory depot
thats probably why.
ivory depot
or get the alt shift with no momentum requirements
crystal bone
but that's less swag
ivory depot
but it does scale worse, so keep that in mind
alt shift is easier to use and better early game, base shift scales better
leaden crag
the grapple feels really weird
crystal bone
why?
leaden crag
some times I can get it to go around an object
like I grapple to a tree and swing around it
crystal bone
yeh, that happens
leaden crag
and some times it just beelines towards whatever I grab
ivory depot
loader is the godess of momentum, you must learn to master it to use her to her full potential
crystal bone
use it to S W I N G
ivory depot
a good tip after swinging with the m2 is to use your shift to get an extra boost after you release
crystal bone
just keep moving
leaden crag
I saw speedrunners use it to cross the entire map with one punch but I haven't been able to go nearly as far
crystal bone
just practice
I got it down with some trial on my 2nd loader run
just get a feel for how the shift and 2 build momentum
ivory depot
you must learn the momentum
back up and swing off a pylon, release at peak momentum and maximum distance away from the object without swinging back, just to release at the perfect moment releasing all your momentum into a punch and soar across the entire map
aka just practice
youll learn it soon enough
leaden crag
now I want a practice range map
crystal bone
ivory depot
titanic plains is excellent for practice
leaden crag
where you can spawn enemys and set the difficulty scaling and shit
ivory depot
yeah youll need mods for that
crystal bone
some mods can do stuff like that
ivory depot
hmmmm
sawmerang or cap
crystal bone
wym equip drone run?
tired axle
i used cheatengine to spawn as a equipment drone
crystal bone
ahhh
cool
rn my captain's taser covers the entire map due to skills++. this is so fun
tired axle
so.. i don't have the reduced cd
i guess i'm just gonna give myself a couple gestures
leaden crag
are headstompers useful as loader
ivory depot
not really
leaden crag
like is it worth it to launch in to the sky and slam or are you better off just punching
ivory depot
grapple into the punch for momentum unless you are using the alt shift
tired axle
i can't actually activate the tele
ivory depot
f
tired axle
which enemy do you hate the most?
ivory depot
brass contraption or elder lemur
tired axle
I'm doing an elder lemurian run
solid violet
do you guys use mods? if so, what is your favorite?
ivory depot
no mods myself, only pain
solid violet
pain
crystal bone
mith is gonna become the king of a whole lotta something
ivory depot
and by pain i mean runs like this
solid violet
whats that pink item
ivory depot
tired axle
is this giving you any flashbacks?
crystal bone
solid violet
next to the item that makes you shoot fire balls
ivory depot
thats a red, soulbound catalyst
solid violet
ohh
ivory depot
on kill reduces equipment cd by 4 (+2 per stack) seconds
crystal bone
and mith is down
solid violet
alright
ivory depot
aka it was literally useless
because i had no equipment
because dumb stupid sacrifce was being dumb and stupid
aka im a dumb stupid idiot because i gave my only preon to a dumb stupid equipment drone
tired axle
elder lemurian also can't use the tele
ivory depot
which was so dumb and stupid it went and died
gotem
thats what you get you run ending lizard
ivory depot
the heck
oh wait i think i know
the grandparent unused boss would summon parents and i think they were summoned by pods?
tired axle
this apperently
tired axle
i just died and a parent appeared
ivory depot
yeah that makes sense
tired axle
i'm gonna try a run as the flamethrower drone
ivory depot
oo interesting
tired axle
can't interact with anything
ivory depot
welp
tired axle
i'm just gonna be a beetle
ivory depot
yey beetle time
tired axle
apperently beetle has a m2
ivory depot
it what
tired axle
not quite sure what it does tho
ivory depot
hmm
tired axle
it makes it so that a can't control him anymore
he just stood there and waited for death
i think his m2 sents him into an existential crisis
ivory depot
oh
so
fun
tired axle
i don't think this is possible
ivory depot
why not?
tired axle
i just lost 90% of my hp against a beetle
