Is there any necessary criteria for a prompt or nah?
no, just anything
Pipe bombs
in your mailbox
ima combine the 2 and see what i get
the first one was a bit political so im regenerating
That one doesn't make much sense
still a more cohesive narrative than gd1
but yeah this makes no sense
ai dungeon is on some shit
In this video, Slimecicle and Condifiction become New York Times Best-Selling authors with the help of an AI.

Friends in this video:
@Condifiction
We used AI dungeon to write a best-selling book and become world renowned authors.
this video is a masterpiece
also risk of rain 2 is a gmer
Fool
Revolt
oh god i just got a really good run, its been an hour and im on my second loop
Nice
whats the best legendary again?
Clover is often said to be the best
Behemoth is great
Free +60% dmg
Yeah behemoth is nuts
what the fuck
this is why this game is so fun holy shit
and i just fucking died
holy fuck never stand still noted
that was fun as shit holy fuck
need to have one of thoes again
Yeah don't stand still unnless you're bungus engi
But yeah you should try a 20 stage run
Gets real nice
with how it got, i cant imagine a 20 stage run
i still cant believe i survived more than 20 minutes in loop 1
got a god run so fast, only 7 hours in the game so far
well, 9 now but
im going to bed, gn yall
Gn
It only was a combo because Bandit's utility acts as a psuedo jump which is what caused yo to get put into range of the genesis loop.
Had you not panicked and activated the smoke bomb, you wouldn't have been killed by the vagrant blast.
Yeah you shouldn't have jumped there since smoke bomb doesn't knock you upwards if used on the ground
it does, but not in the same way
your hitbox does leave the ground, but you don't get the up momentum, so you kinda just float off the ground for a second
am i missing a role
i thought that was purely visual since it doesn't actually affect your movement at all
not very much of a jump
it keeps you at the same altitude, so if you're going over a very small gap (or you have a lot of movement speed) then you can clear it
yeah, it's really small
What a run. I was going for the unlock where you smack Mithrix with a pistol shot but I smacked him too hard and I skipped his final phase
yeeep kjaro's'll do that
whoops.
honestly I kind of disagree as far as stage 6 final boss runs go, reds like shattering or behemoth are always going to be useful while clover relies on you getting a select few items, that you don't have much time to accumulate
for looping runs it is by far the best though
a fitting unlock then, you need some dedication to looping
headstompers are by far the best red
nah... mask is
Stun grenade
gasoline
Ion surge Arti bullies mithrix so hard
she bullies mithrix hard even without ion surge
ice wall op
can even take nano spear for convenience
ion surge bullies mithrix, but melting him with fire is gamer
but like
@late phoenix come my child, speak
Why did you ping me in cringe
Shaped glass, more like shaped ass
Good job buddy
why would you shape glass smh
That is an exceptional amount of hp
so my mother used a shrine of legend
no because key was buffed
how so?
The average reward is miles better
Unless you’re going on an 800 stage run the new key is better in almost every way
Now you can only open rusted box if you have key in inventory, and the chances are the exact same as a large box
20/80
And there is one box per stage
for regular play, yeah. For what I was going for, no
rusted key is basically an investment for a green item, or a red item if you're lucky
It’s still trading one white for a green or red
well, nothing matters that late into the game
And if you just care about reds, 6 keys is 2 reds, one from the one red you statistically get by chance, and one from trading in the 5 greens for a red at a cauldron
Bread
🍞
Bread
true, not bad at all. I just wished I knew about the patch notes before grinding for that many
lets admit, some common items are just better than greens/reds
and rusted key kinda remained on the same spot
the glow is quite nice
The glow is insanely good, same with the focus crystal radius, more visibility is better
Also if everyone in a 4 player lobby is holding a key, 4 lock boxes spawn every stage
Focus crystal visuals are poggar
"nope"
Mushrums are rough
reject humanity, return to shroom
A single lunar wisp is more menacing than two phase one mini mithrix
tfw the imp overlord spawns right on top of you and does that insane melee nasuyhaj hahahah
dodge ez
i have a few health
thats what i like to call
shrine of order
Bad Artifact Idea: normal items no longer exist in the game, but your level scales at a rate that can keep up with the game's difficulty scaling. Each boss drops a special item that's a goat hoof, a soldier syringe, a cautious slug, all in one
Disgusting, but I suppose that was the point
Amalgamation items would be very interesting to see
Basically what Starskull said, but only 2, instead of three
The point is you play the character as their base form without frills throughout the whole game and staying powerful instead of relying on items to carry you
man gd2 is refreshing..
does mithrix triangles hit infinitely high?
ur supposed to dodge it right?
i really dont like how even the wiki doesnt warn u about how high that attack hits
and its not visually obvious either
if you're talking the spinny attack thing, yeah they hit really high, though it would probably be harder to see if they made the visuals go up really high
its not a bad attack imo
afaik a lot of people would agree that its one of his most fair attacks
unless you're talking a different attack
nah its that one
but it feels unfair because it appears to be inconsistent
i have not thought about trying to weave if i had multiple hopoos and im on the platform
and nowhere near the edge
like i guess i was lucky at least 7 mithrix fights before that ?
not to mention all those times he does that attack
i didnt realise that u HAVE to weave
Okay so the mithrix spinny wheel of doom attack actually has a height limit, if you cling to the ceiling of the arena as loader (or get up there in any other way really) it can't hit you
The further away you are from him horizontally though the easier it is to avoid
the issue here is that it kills the main interesting part of the game, the time mechanic
if you scale with enemies, then you can stay as long as you like, but with no items to gather, might as well rush
further, without damage buffs, the enemies will undoubtedly out scale you. attack speed is not a substitute for damage on half the cast
it also synergises horribly with other artifacts like command and sacrifice which feels like a core design with them
i got the artifact of command
no rng, all shame
is Focused Assault better than Blinding Assault?
3 dashes > 1 dash
when there's a lot of enemies
when there's like 6 lads against you, this 1 dash becomes infinite until everyone is dead
^
so like 2 seconds
impressive anyways, im always taking focused if im going into multiplayer swarms runs
for single player 6mm blinding assault ez choice
I actually never realised that hitting Exposed enemies reduced your cooldowns
I just thought it was a damage boost
what items are best for bandit?
scythe predatory syringe on-hits
ukulele is pretty much a must if you don't want to get swarmed
Scythe is core item since he has guaranteed crits
m2 is aoe tho
Real Engineering
bandit is basically melee so you're getting swarmed in melee most of the times
therefore dagger very good
shanking dumb lemurians as bandit is very fun
ok but you're invalidating ukulele so ?
ok
Gorgeous
nice
34 chronobaubles
glorious
"Slow Duration: 68 Seconds"
i have 6 planulas too
90 HP on hit is good, you should get some tincture
best yellow item on artificer?
The OP ones, 


molten perf? Unless you go purity
@dull ingot How are you gonna kill mith with 6 planulas lmao
well y'see i printed like 40 runalds
That'll do it
i was playing with a friend and he used a mil-tech printer to print way too many brainstalks
wahoo
This was my crazy run from last night
wow command works on lunar items, feels slightly OP XD
guess so! i'm only abusing it for achievements
you could probably offset ruining the game by doing a meme build though so i appreicate it
abusing command for dumb achievements is fine in my book
like, don't abuse it for masteries
or things like the purity unlock
but for stuff like the bandit alt m2 unlock, use command all you want
uses command block
im bad but i know im bad so that makes it okay
or worse
ah 20 haemmorage stacks i see yeah that does seem troublesome
i kinda like the melee though
eh I used it for some masteries 😎 like engie because I hate engie
based
melee bandit is intended bandit
looking back at using the ranged knife I realize there isn’t really a great point unless you’re planning on having capped Crit
Yea and running rifle. You kinda lose out on how strong he is up close
like for how I play bandit it didn’t do shit for me in reality
now rifle I am keeping
because ranged knife isn’t smart but ranged desperado stacks is
True
i just have one thing to say
Forgive Me Please + Soulbound Catalyst + Ceremonial Dagger + Gestrue of the Drowned is absurdly op
throwing in other on kill items like monster tooth necklace and topaz broch can make you literally unkillable
thats for the suggestion
yeah thats probably simple enough
especially since thats only one legendary which is like guarenteed early enough
@gd1
woah, n owonder he added dagger though. they generate daggers whether theyre hitting something or not, huh?
free homing shit
but yeah those first two items together are crazy already
no
even wihy just command and sacrifice, unless you impose really strict rules on yourself, thy game is trivially easy. just select a powerful build at the start
cant see the appeal ngl
Okay, I'm very curious about this, so I figured I'd come here and see what everyone thought. What is your opinion on text file editing for Lunar Coins?
You cheat the game, you cheat yourself, and you cheat God, but you are now infinitely powerful
kinda of two minds
on the one hand, cheating lunar coins (or challenges) is kind of bad from a moral sense. it cheapens the value of legitimate achievements when it's impossible to prove if they were done legit. i also think it cheats the cheater out of the joy of unlocking and discovering content.
lunar items are also supposed to be viable. with the reroll and infinite coins, your can now just select any lunar build your choose; and with the decisive power of well-chosen blues, that's a pretty obvious unfair advantage
on the other hand
play the game how you like! if you think lunar coins are a stupid mechanic that should go and lunars should be free, then i kinda think you have a right to do that. grinding coins is a chore if you enjoy that selective playstyle, so why not cheat them in to save time?
sometimes, if I'm playing with friends who are new
if my first exposure to the game was command and sacrifice id be not interested in playing it normally or for very long (but that's very just me)
if i were to do that id make them find the artifacts themselves before we use them again :p
well that's why it's not your first experience. I take them through their own journeys first, and then when they feel a bit tired, I show them what they could do if they work towards it :)
oops sorry for the ping
nah i need it for this server since it's muted
i udnerstand command more than the other ones, because you coudl argue it removes the rng and you might eventually get rng and beat a run anyway or maybe you want to do a meme build
meme build id say is weird restrictions
and if you remove the rng, you win every time unless you're really bad. hands down.
if i was playing gungeon and could pick gun/passive pickups, id win every time
the rng is the point. you can play whatever hand the game gives you and that's the fun
lmao same
stacking bungus on stationary engi with max cooldown foreign fruit and nkuhanas is kinda fun
problem with command is at a certain point you basically have to devolve into proc chains
Not if you fire INFINITE SAW BLADES
Acrid
Regenerative every 0.2 seconds
Double nail gun mul t
Slow
Finally got Artificers mastery skin in console
And I didn't get the save bug so I am saved from more pain
I think I broke void fields, on the 9th cell there was no enemies but there was "monster items" still
I never used to understand the huntress hate.
huntress bad
Huntress decent
only good for ero
No. You're just mad horny.
I hate huntress
cool
I think it's mostly because she's the most sexualized character and people secretly hate how much attention she gets, even though the other characters are more viable rather than look the best
well- "secretly" hate
you're absolutely right...
but she's also a sexualized meme, so...¯_(ツ)_/¯
you know it's a bad day when gd2 gets toxic
lol
Huntress is like reverse commando, instead of having a good M1 for procs and whatnot, the rest of her kit is fantastic but the cooldowns are too long and her M1 sucks
I got risk of rain 2 a little while after watching fokoes video about it.
And i mostly used commando because he was a very simple charatcher. And i sorta used huntress but didn't like her style.
And then i started useing huntress more
And she really grew on me.
Also it took me forever to realize what m2 does. And when i did another part of my brain opened
when you gonna unlock bandit your jaw will fall off because of how much damage he deals compared to these two
everyone gets horny over huntress' ass
but like
is nobody gonna mention what a treat it is when bandit goes invisible and you see his outline under his coat cus like
more people need to talk about it
exactly
when
logs maybe
monster logbooks
Captain has silver fox vibes and we have to talk about that too
The moment I unlocked captain and saw his animation in the character select screen I was floored.
I also had not noticed Bandit's outline, I will have to look at it more carefully
@dull ingot how
How did you get elite drones
Mods
How does an elitw healing drone work
like usual
Imagine if they applied the debuff on you
they dont, and they are your ally so that'd be dumb as fuck
I know imagine being killed by healing drone 
Trust noone, not even your drones.
Anyways im busy but the mods i used for elite drones were DronesInheritItems and Zetaspects
Elite healing drone would be nice with Celestine-- Oh no its Malachite oh god oh FUck
weeeeee
test
I'm mad
I didn't know ||the moon was gonna explode after I ACTUALLY killed mithrix, and that I had to jump into the scary balls of electric, AND THAT THEY WERE PORTALS-... and not scary balls of electric-||
||they used to look a lot less like portals when the commencement change first happened, they looked like black holes, and it was changed recently to look less scary, since people were not jumping into them. kind of the only downside of the commencement changes making the arena really high in the sky was needing portals||
||guess its still scary enough to make some accidents happen||
nah you're just really good at the game
playing modded seems to fuck up the logbook thing
Yeah im god gamer won E8 and Syzygy im so good haha god gamer
Playing the game seems to destroy the stats screen, modded messes with the logbook. Idk what causes it, but it certainly wasn't a thing I'd noticed before the update.
the logbook stats screen has always been broken for me
appearntly my most played survivor is squid turret, guess im a squid polyp main
Pfffff you play commando? CRINGE. play polyp
They should just put arrows on them that say ESCAPE HERE
yeah
dang is it a known bug that you can pick up artifacts early? been completing the artifact achievements on like the third key sometimes, the artifact isnt even inside the ball lol, but i cant leave yet
Good thing I'm a video gamer
woooo
dunno why it doesnt show i got acrid mastery too, but i got bad medicine wooo
edit: equip was recycler, since that also doesnt show. 4 fuel cell recycler moment
For some reason mastery doesn't show until you get back go the menu lol
No flexing allowed
brainstalks on acrid is fun
I only get brainstalks as captain 😔
"😔"?
How was my huntress build?
pretty dece
Shatterspleeb is good
shatterspleen is one of the reasons i love recycler
get a beetle guard? could be a spleeeen
empathy cores my beloved
empathy cores i deliberately did NOT recycle
recycler plus overgrown printer is just a matter of time
empathy cores fly around and distract everything, including moon man
and they're adorable and probably a terraria reference :)
cretinazier
I got fkin one shot on a commando god run yesterday by a lemurian and I'm still salty
Granted it was a malachite elite but still
Lemurians rate of fire is kind of insane
love how they look equally dumbfounded in each pic
:V
nice
lemurian
oh i have like 17 billion damage on ror1 but its on console
then it doesn't count
How can I check that out?
It's in the logbook
When will that come out for console?
Ah good. Are there any characters in it?
Yep
One. Lame. 
Hmmmm yes just 1 hmmm el no sabe
bookmarking this for when the update drops 
lol
spoilers for anniversary update
|| I'm surprised it's not super obvious that there's a second "secret character". Throughout the past two months, there've been multiple feedback suggestions relating to the Heretic, even uncensored and straight up saying Heretic instead of secret character or something similar. The thing is, I know not everyone goes into feedback ideas, but then there's also youtube, twitch, etc. that are all computer gamers, so they all have the update. On top of that, I made a google form a while ago basically asking who people's mains are and I added the heretic and, like, 70% of the votes for hereitc where basically "I don't know this character" which blows my mind.|| Anyways, rant over
spanish gang
I don't natively speak spanish
me neither haha
yeah
I learned latin for 3 years and now I'm learning Spanish, and it's such a nice transition since they're both romance languages
I've been learning spanish for 10 years and am still terrible at it hah
oh, wow that's impressive
Well maybe not terrible, but it's still tough
agreed
lmao same
imagine risk of rain 2 has a cutscene that keeps all your items on as a costume
Gd2 is everything gd1 was supposed to be
gd2 🥺🤮
honor is hard
Also less xbox live cod lobby like
i know this, i meant i got it in an order
kinda nutty
am I a 🇵ussy for wanting to do masteries by obliteration and not mithrix?
yes but you're valid fuck mithrix
kinda yes kinda no
Mithrix is a lot more fun once you learn him
but some scavengers are just awful and if you are okay fighting them that’s worth some merit
yeah, but it's 10x harder to beat mithrix as a melee character
I seriously feel like the jump from stage 5 monsters to lunar chimera is huge. at least during runs where I don't cheese command swarm sacrifice
if youre not too slow scavs wont show up until stage 9 so you can just dodge them entirely
eh not really once you learn him
if you stick around long enough playing the game you'll find that monsoon isn't that difficult, and that killing mithrix won't be a problem
yeah once you learn him it's better but still I get a minor lag spike and I'm ded
I play on a potato
this is getting a little into my personal views but mithrix kinda isn’t designed around you not having some decent mobility
the entire moon isnt designed around it which I think kinda sucks
monsoon really doesn't feel (too) difficult anymore. I get to stage 4 with every character and to the moon with commando and mul-t
mithrix just fucks you up without mobility
he is faster than you and even huntress will struggle to dodge the dashes forever
it’s why a lot of new players wanna just give up on mith
you spend a lot of time running and it drags the fight out
monsoon isn't too hard imo it is really just mithrix is overwhelming
Yeah he is
if youre used to him he's okay, i can beat him most of the time it's just not fun stage 6
i'd usually loop, i think it's easier
And then they allowed him to be cheesed with the terrain 😔
but at least it's a well designed boss battle... right?
and also the game is slighted against melee characters in my opinion, because a lot of stuff (like wisps) you can't reach, it's harder as a melee character in general
I think it’s alright for the player they have in mind
so wait beating him on stage 11 is easier?
Mithrix and the moon is imagining a pretty decked out survivor
if you ask me, yes
but if you reach stage 11 most everything is easy
this is partially compensated for with melee characters getting armour, hp and regen
it's alright, if I do go for mithrix I usually go for him as a ranged character and stand on the ramp
Having rng decide if hes gunna be a pushover or a bullet sponge ain't that great
phase 4 was nerfed hard
yeah that's my thinking too, loader op
if you can reliably reach s11 then mithrix is a joke usually
i can loop just about every time so maybe im biased
true, but phase 4 was never the hard bit
it just sucked
the item stealing phase was hard
looping is biased against mith imo
but not the fucking scavengers lmao
kip kip was designed for filthy loopers
he's stuck in the center, so just hang on a ramp and you couldn't lose
oh you have damage? Let’s see how much???
now you can do that but it doesn't take forever
my boyfriend ran a forgive me please build on acrid and as soon as he died I exploded
You don’t even need a ramp to cheese Mithrix
yeah that's the hard part for the melees
i think the pinnacle of good design is having to kill the boss by pushing them out of the arena with the force of the bullets
Kip kip is horrible and I think he’s the only scav you get once you reach a certain difficulty
Or maybe it’s based on your character level idk
goddammit yall are making me want to play while I'm in class ;-;
but I hardly see the other scavengers
no idea but ill do some big loops at some point to test
ive not seen kipkip in ages
that's risk of rain for you
I have never seen a scavenger so attached to me
scavengers are cute ngl
Swarms scav is funni too because it spawns two different ones
fun trivia fact: the 'rain' in risk of rain actually refers to kipkip,
because there's a risk you run into kipkip and fucking die
lmao
petition to blacklist gasoline from scavengers
scavengers can have that??
I’ll never forget the moment kip kip got 5 gasoline while I was wailing on him
F
be in the air and run towards him
he will throw them past you
aka the jellyfish strat
I’ll try that next time but gasoline range is really insane
I’m honestly not sure they’d go far enough to spare me
yeah the best thing to do is basically to fly
scavs can REALLY overcompensate if youre in the air
milky chryssalis actually does good work if youre low on mobility against them
Milky in general against most bosses
I used it on my e7 clear I think or maybe e6
float like a 🦋 sting like a 🐝
pog
fly like an eagle, strike like a hawk
honestly the movement equipments are actually super useful when you use them a bit
especially the eccentric vase, being able to immediately travel across the entire stage is pretty damn helpful
Commencement especially
I play arti a lot too and can’t even remember the last time I charged the pillars
i played with a friend yesterday who didnt know you could skip the pillars with it, he was pretty impressed when we just soared over all the dumb chimera and rock up to mithrix's doorstep
Gd1
Isn't real

Hi
Hello
Hola
goeiemorgen
man
I just got three legendaries in a row, lucky clover, ceremonial dagger, and the ice one
I go to the teleporter, and just get one hit by glacial brass contraption.
yeah that sounds like risk of rain 2 - if you dont kill the elite brass contraptions, they kill you
nono, it was the teleporter boss
Hey
hey
hey
hey
hey
hey
Hey
hey
hey
well, it doesn't serve much purpose unless you have 500 drones, so I think it's fine
also unless there's chaos enabled
what
dont they have a thing where they can just activate on kill effects?
yes
Gd2 is boring
Safe but boring
well an "on-kill" effect doesn't proc without a kill, so..
oh, that's weird
lmfao
Legizstan is actually right here
Scav weird
I mean, proccing on kills is the entire point of the thqwib attack
I'd be ok if the phrase "being a dexterity" became a thing lmao
yeah, that's what I guessed. Makes sense, given scavs don't have any guaranteed on-kill things to hit, so ig you gotta do it somehow, but it feels strange
yeah, that makes sense
hey
hello
OSP is a lie
If I wanted to make a broken huntress build what do I need to pick up





I see lunar items lol
just get like uhhh
What items are strong
Definitely visions tho
attack speed items, crit, onhits like ukes atgs and meat hook
Her m1 is the worst part of her kit
just little disciples
What does that do? :0
fires homing projectiles while sprinting
So could I just grab a couple of those n then tons of sodas and hooves?
That sounds epic
What epic items are good? I always try to go for clover
Unstable tesla coil is usually a good get for just running around and cooking trash mobs
What about equipment I struggle with this one, I usually get the drones, saw blades, or the gold shooter thing. Sometimes I like to grab the one that gives everyone a frenzy but what are your thoughts
for reds, I'd take behemoth, meathook, headset ig
Those are all good,
is good for clearing out a small horde or one big threat, especially when combined with your own bleed,
is good to get agro off of you,
is good at a specific point once you get proc chains up, but isn’t very useful early, and
is great for the on demand movement and attack speed, especially if you have a few allies like beetle guards and drones
Do you guys use equipment drones/should I be using them?
Equipment drones are good with most equips
But usually the equipment is better on you anyways, so only really give them equips if you have a replacement for yourself
Equipment drones are insane with gorag’s opus
, radar scanner
, royal capacitor
, and primordial cube 
All of these have near perfect up time and are mostly support equipments anyway
Equip drones have 80% cdr for equipment too
Thank you for the advice everyone :] 💗💞💞💗💕
Any time
wait, as in -80% or make it 80%?
give glowing meteorite to an equipment drone 👀
probably not a bad idea if you're super tanky and want to speedrun
giving the equipment drone tonic is so funny lmao
just leave the poor guy to drug himself to death
Drone has perma uptime as long as it remains in combat lol
jade elephant is a funny but actually useful strat for builds that want to have a ton of drones, i.e. captain/any character with empathy cores
i notice a lot of people are quite unaware of empathy cores in general
it's ridiculously powerful like a lot of the yellow items
I once accidentally gave an equipment drone a fire essence and just had a blazing equipment drone flying around doing nothing
I mean you got a burning drone and thats rad
Unironically just give them bad essences, actually helps a bit
Most helpful is either malachite, celestine, or perfected
false
keep giving them shit until you find crowdfunder
best drone imo are black hole, saw, and idk gorag’s?
But the other ones can do a fine job of just drawing away fire if you give them healing shit which is funny
a personal fave of mine is backup drone because it’s a drone that calls more drones 
BH and gorags are amazing on them, but damage equips can benefit from your procs
sorry for the late response, but thanks :)
How many hooves would it take to start moving considerably fast in MUL-T power mode?
it depends on the definition of considerably fast

Then my friend got all the items he wanted, plus changed into Heretic from Captain and we also both got Mithrix's log book while I got Commando's mastery skin.
though I died just before Mithrix's final phase and my friend carried the rest of it
congrats my guy
i havent done a shrine of order in so long damn
i always find them when i have cracked items and never when i have dooky lul
best way to get the alternate abilites for commado?
I've been struggling with getting really far, especially without my dear essence of heresy
which ones do you need
overloading worm and stage 20 no lunars
yeah figured
the utility was easy as hell
okay, so the best way is to get a good run
like, that sounds dumb but thats really all there is to it
you will encounter an overloading worm eventually
If I use command, what are the best items?
as for actual commando gameplay, try to shoot your m2 into a horde of enemies
and the stun goes on dangerous elites and big foes?
for commando:
anything crit related (glasses, scythes and predatory)
goat hooves
clover and meat hook
those are the main items
Alright! Thank you.
also, yes, try to stun mainly elder lemurians

and that
@merry karma
Jizz
Does anyone know if metamorphosis works on lunar heretic?
no
That means no change in survivor?
Metamorphosis does work on heretic
But you turn back into heretic if you pick up ANY item
Yes
u can separately try unlocking artifact of command and sacrifice, and then do both on drizzle. These are the artifacts for the cheesiest runs. As long as you reach stage 20 youre bound to get an overloading worm somewhere along the way. I personally got it at stage 15 on sky meadow, and it was exactly the environment i expected it to be in.
also, a royal capacitor with a few fuel cells and some crowbars can really save a run when youre falling behind
You should also know that when you stack fire/ice bands they can be activated with phase round if it passes through 1 enemy and hits one behind it
10 daggers can also go a long way on commando with his fast firerate, as eventually you'd be stacking 100 bleed procs on things in a matter of a few seconds
thank you!
thicc boi got stuck
Can’t hide from us

gd2
when something funny happens I always post in gd2 becasuse there's always a discussion in gd1!
TC-280 is no more. You were a good boy. I will forever miss you.
can I have f in the chat?

:(
tc is a fat ass doesnt deserve to be bought from the ground
I agree flerik, I always pick up a TC-280 whenever I see one in a run
Never gotten more than 1 though so I wonder if that's possible
Interesting, I'll aim for it whenever I get in the mood for a longer run
Playing monsoon with artifact of swarms, honor, chaos and sacrifice is crazy
Ok
Didnt they change it so that sacrifice drops less when swarms is active?
Doesn’t matter, still fun as hell
not again :( RIP tc280 the second
tri-tip
my funny nemesis lemurian image is no longer relevant
i have this strange tendency whenever i see an overloading brass contraption to be like "ah yes, the thing that kills me a lot! surely i can outsmart it this ti-"
ding dong
literally whenever im happy about a run i decide to throw myself at those bells
no problem 😎
nice altmando
Now do it on monsoon
mando with shotgun and nades > mando that can sometimes shoot slow bullet, and sometimes shoot fast with the same dps.
less dps 😔
His m1 actually shoots faster haha, 6.66 shots to 6 shots per second
Unless you mean phase round
that is in fact a slow boolet
I tried the nade, it has the worst aiming in the entire game
Took me like 7 tries to hit it
yea nade has a bit of a steep curve
I always encourage people to try it tho, because even just tossing it at the ground in a group is really good aoe, it has solid band procs if you can nail it, and suppressive is now kinda actively worse than shooting m1 hahaha
so yea
grenade has pretty defined situations for when you use them. But the more you practice the more you'll recognize these situations and quickly lob them without losing any time
Obviously the most bright examples when you cant use it is when something is right infront of you, or when something is in the air (unless something is situationally next to a wall or a slope)
Eventually you'll get into a habit of looking straight down to lob a short distance grenade into whats 10-15 meters infront of you
Or for example how you can aim at one of stone titan's legs so that the grenade lands infront of him instead of bouncing away inbetween his legs
you just there em above your head at 89 degrees, after 4 seconds everything around you is ded. ez
One thing is for sure though. If you can't throw a grenade or if you failed a grenade, it's not like you would have gained any dps with suppressive fire
and not like you 100% interrupted a golem/greater wisp/tempar/vulture
with stun nade sup fire is obsolete tho
Well yeah, and as long as you have your movement patterns set with good timing to dodge big lemurians and greater wisps etc
I can never dodge a group of greater wisps😔
I think templars you can run behind them and their turn rate is very slow
not sure though
cant stun something like contraptions though
Templars do have blunderbuss tho
Guys is the artifact of Honor still breaking the game or did they fix it?
GD 2 ftw baby
ok I forgot that typos still exist and potentially balance issues?
game is really rough around the edges and lacks many basic features
like a white item that just increases your base damage (no)
like a chat that doesnt need to be bound to enter, and chat history so whatever i write doesnt disappear in 5 seconds. like ability to know how big of a ping youre gonna have when u join a lobby. like being able to reconnect during at least some time period if u lost connection shortly
like ability to kick people from your lobby or start a votekick
gameplay wise, i think some alt character abilities are too difficult to unlock considering the character becomes much more enjoyable with them
and boring without
we won't point fingers at you, slicing winds
also phase blast and ballista, but at least that stuff is achievable with command if you're not really into godrunning
also, im kind of torn with how 'black and white' dodging currently is in the game. because youre either dodging everything with no effort or u get your face torn off in 2-3 hits with seemingly no chance to live
for instance, sometimes just jumping over and over and running in 1 direction will make you completely safe from lemurians and contraptions
because i think bots are only capable of seeing ur trajectory in straight lines, and jumping is an arc, i.e. an infinite amount of lines
but if u do make them able to hit you, the game could become unplayable to all but the sweatiest high concentration people
very true, damage scaling is absurd
I like it much more in ror1, but that's the only strong feature of balancig in that game
like imagine if u couldnt just run in 1 direction to dodge Lemurian fireballs, but actually had to switch directions each time they shoot
it is just dps check and cheese all the time, no satisfying proc chains or big brain plays
that would be pretty hellish when surrounded by a swarm of things
gd2?
ai that can perfectly track your movement is scary
I'm getting off guard by golems dodging my nades by jumping lol
well, wisps can already track, and im sure lemurians track u perfectly too. but theyre not shooting where youll be, just where exactly u are at that moment
bots that do shoot ahead of u as soon as u press left or right, can be really really rage inducing though
actually, stone titan's fist attack
the sole reason I was struggling hella lot on huntress when I was starting
anyone know how to fix my bepin not finding the autoexec? or loading my mods?
I had a problem like that, and I just deleted and reinstalled r2modman.
make sure your paths are correct in settings
Can agree. My 2 hour commando run to find an averloading worm wasen't a pleasant experience
Ah, a gd2 man of culture
ik im late but running in a clockwise circle will defeat almost any monster in the game
Sometimes its a close circle (titans), sometimes it's a whatever circle (contraps), sometimes a big circle (big lizzy), but the result is the same
if you can figure out the correct circle to run in (since you cant loop everything at once) then you become almost unkillable
otherwise you die pretty quick
Alt m1 moment
full electricity arti
aoe, no dot
no fire but has a bigger aoe
would you say it's better or worse?
sadge in early game enemies don't really clump up
base one's aoe is 2meter, alt's is 6m
you can proc a lil more with alt m1, but not being able to kill wisps in one shot will take toll on your nerves
also have you thought about the fact that all artificers abilities are either ion abilities or elemental powers
iirc if you hit at least 2 enemies with alt then it's about the same dmg overall
it's all first tier elite aspects
She just needs an ion utility, perhaps some sort of ion dash?
Iam going tokill you
anyways, that mod that replaces slots also sucks
why
why does that statement create such anger inside you
Because it is absolutely wrong
I think it's kinda right, utility exists to bring utility, and yeeting out of a fight to survive is very much utility. I wouldn't change it though
nopes, ion surge is a special move to weave vertically and deal decent aoe damage, while ice walls is a utility that helps her execute targets
(i have no idea what utility and special mean)
utlity is third skill and special is 4th
Come to gd2 and have a relaxing cup of tea 🍵
yep
im wondering what would happen if suppressive fire became a channeled skill with no fixed duration
because it's technically lower DPS but has a stun maybe it would be better if you can just suppress a crowd for a time
would fit the name a bit better too
yeah suppressive fire kinda stinks when they didnt change it but buffed the m1
its not even that bad i just think it would be a cool change
anyone else go onto abandonded aqueduct
pop a single mountain shrine on monsoon
then you get like a couple of bosses; regular stuff
then out of fucking nowhere an elite beetle guard appears and fucking slams your ass 100000 km into the sky
like every single time i pop an mountain shrine
an elite beetleguard appears out of fucking nowhere
the game enjoys saving up credits specifically to make you die in boss fights
there's no specific mechanic for it but it happens relatively often
feels like there's specific ambush spots on the map where the director will spawn a bunch of enemies
not go on them and then hit the teleporter and all hell breaks loose
if it helps: the director doesnt care about location at all, it just spawns enemies near you
huh
so it is just saving up credits, then getting more from mountain shrine and just throwing them all out
when tele activates
clockwise circle, got it man. This is a very good way to describe what i felt.
but since sometimes it waits a long time to spawn things (like when saving up for elite monsters) it can feel like an ambush
honestly there's a bit of an art to it but it does work ;)
i think it feels kind of cool that it saves up and ambushes
it just feels wild when on tele it realizes 'oh fuck guess i have to spend all of these credits, SIGH, -spawns 5000 elites-'
not sure if its like a delay mechanic or the director is just chaotic
yeah i assume if it undershoots on the boss it's just like 'well this is spare, die time'
anyways nice chat lol
just wanted to comment here since i ran engi and died for the third time to an elite beetleguard after popping a mountain shrine on aqueduct
hahah yeah engi gets kinda done in by it
have those mines ready, good luck next time ;)
Highly reccomend spider mines and thermal harpoons. Run away and only use those because your m1 is jank and while its decent damage, its hard to hit without practice, charges up entirely too long, and engie is a squishy boy with no mobility. So ring around the rosie if you must
Hello everybody
Greetings good fellow
Spidermines are just a general upgrade.
Well yes, but it pays to reccomend them anyways. Some people don't realize just how bad stock engie is in terms of options
First
How does this run look? I think I did pretty dang good, I had spinel tonic as an equipment too
Its a tad lengthy for the items you have but it seemed to work out so good job
Yeahh, I had a crit and guillotine printer on rally point after looping plus a scrapper
So I just got distracted printing a lot for that
I decided to sacrifice due to how much time I wasted
Yea its cool in that situation because of the good build
also its worth noting that on engineer, his turrets will get the tonic afflictions that you have but dont use tonic themselves afaik (i know turrets get equipment but i believe they still cant use them even if u have a gesture, but this is a tangent lol)
Interesting
how would you guys feel about Artificer getting a different debuff for her special that stacks damage per debuff and also increases the damage per debuff (so exponentially)
something like (50+25x)x, which would yield a 3,575% base damage per second at max, or
1,788% base per tick
i was inspired by the tierlist on gd1 what does gd2 think of my clearly correct and based opinions? i also clearly value movement pretty high 😎
Wow those bottom tiers are some hot takes. Stun grenade is surprisingly useful, and bandolier isn't flashy but its great to have. The worst offenders are probably rachis and effigy though. Rachis is amazing on engie, especially if you get multiple. And effigy is good early as a sort of bonus against whatever boss you fight, assuming non melee
my issue with stun grenade is that most characters already have a method of stunning enemies and it also stacks pretty poorly by itself
most of the time when i get bandolier i end up not picking up the ammo box thing because its out of the way and cooldowns arent overly long, it is super useful for melee characters (or if you happen to randomly wander through dead enemies) i will admit
ive never really used rachis or effigy but id still keep rachis in the same tier as bungus for similar reasons
Fair, but honestly i feel you rated bungus too harshly, especially since the buff
yeah ill be honest, some items i got a little lazy with, i did also mean to say that the items on the borders of tiers are basically in the other tier tbh, so id say bungus is c/d tier imo
Fair lol.
Crowbar in C otherwise yaeh
headstomper should be above frost relic and ayy jizz
cant tell if it's a real list cause dml S
Headstomper is bad
no
headstomper is super good if you combine it with quail and bands no cap
Bands I get, why quails though
to skip commencement with a bit of additional speed
Skipping commencement is nice but the momentum glitch is more of an annoyance than anything
I hate just flying into the air for no apparent reason
with quail and stompers, if you sprint jump into a slope, you go crazy high (i guess its trimping?) so the stompers do loads of damage as you are literally in the skybox
That's not as fun as just shooting stuff
eeh fun is subjective i guess
i just love being 50 feet in the air, hurtling down onto a dunestriders dumb head and it just gets deleted
I like that, but I don't like randomly being launched into the air
oh yeah thats true, i wont deny that for movement headstompers are pretty annoying so i find myself spamming the stomp off cooldown lol
I dislike headstompers because while it CAN be huge damage, its so tedious to set up unless you have enough movement speed anyways. And by then you probably have better alternatives. Its a weird item that doesn't deserve to be a red, but is too good to be a green
I don't think they need to change anything, it's a bad red and that's fine
Its also good mobility early, but later on its more tedious than anything else. Other reds that don't deserve red but are too good for green are desk plant, wake of vultures, alien head, and happiest mask
Most reds are good, it's there to nerf the good ones
Having 5 bad reds isn't a big deal
i geniunely hate the headstompers and if i get a run with them i will end it
True, but with the amount of bad reds thats kind of an issue.
And it is when theres only 17 ingame, and one being a character exclusive. Especially when some(frost relic, nukhanas hardlight, soulbound) are situational. If you don't benefit from equipment charge then soulbound is decorational. If you can't get in close, frost relic is just a forced fov swap, if your shift isn't great then hardlight is just meh. Some are amazing, others are mediocre. But if half of them are bad or only good on certain characters then it makes getting good ones harder. Especially when like alien head, it serves an otherwise nearly impossible service and reduces cooldown. Theres only 4 items ingame that do that for abilities. Head, purity, brainstalks, and bandolier
2 reds, a lunar, and a green you have to go out of your way to get the most out of.
my main problem with the headstompers is more or less they're distracting as hell for me
like i can't take my mind off the fact 'hey if you jump and then press E you will do alot of damage'
and that distracts my entire game and completely throws it off for me
i'd like it alot more if the damage effect activated automatically
like whenever you landed
you don't need proc if you destroy things anyways
Skill issue
why
artifact of glass on original risk of rain is super fun
it is balanced
chef best survivor
hey anybody wanna play some risk of rain 2?
check the lfg channels
I hope the second final boss in the first expansion is Providence
What if you could go back in time and play part of the first game but in risk of rain 2
Instead of doing that, the DLC could be something equally as epic and lore-related, without living in the shadow of the previous game
No sex
gd2 should be 3d
stun grenades d😔
value movement more
berserker C
truee
fuck berserker pauldron more like shitserker poodraun
its free
tho

irradiant is way worse than spleen and perforators
if it multiplied all your stat increases like tonic does it would be really good
but now it gives you +0.1 regen
regardlelss of how much you have
Yeah, but imagine it compared to a normal pearl
irradiant right now is basically just crit glasses, bison steak, goat hoof, and syringe but worse versions of them
which isn't bad but like, super overrated
Yeah about, but technically it only costs lunar founds
Which are free
I wouldn’t say no, but I would also prefer almost any other boss item
gd2 noises
that's just silence
yes
crickets

I really like REX but he seems to he outdone by most other characters.
They does lots of damage, and are good enough at crowd control
However
Their health fluctuates too much for my liking and he never has osp
Just use robot abilities 
wdym
osp sux
Yeah, but like being at less than 50% when spamming right click can kill you
Rex’s robot abilities don’t hurt him, his plant ones do
Oh yeah
But the problem with robot abilities is garbage
They do like 0 damage compared to health one and are not as cool
IDK man, M1 seems pretty good
Rex seems to be very good if you can time your m2 and keep an eye on your health
The point of Rex is to be powerful, but you need to balance health to use him properly. The robot abilities are weaker, but almost eliminate the health costs
I love playing rex, but again, you need to keep an eye on your health and know when to stop using m2 and when to use his special
If played correctly, rex is a survivor with incredible survivability, damage and aoe
He also makes runs that have too much healing to have plenty of damage, and vice versa
this run was ok
also, the plant special makes you basically able to heal from anything in seconds if you can root a swarm of enemies
oof the sub-par rng
can't tell if youre being sarcastic or not
i am
yeah it was really hard
pain with no range
yeah
if i go close i die, if i back up the thing heals to full health
its really annoying
i mean you probably can dash out quickly
shift out and r back
fair
but it doesnt do enough damage to be effective
also r will prioritize other enemies too
so half the time i end up attacking some beetle guard
Oh you use eviscerate?
i dont have slicing winds
I see
wish i did
Yea sw is much better
but i cant beat a prismatic trial, let alone do it without damage
If you subscribe to Cabbage on youtube he does a tutorial for every seed
On how to get ethereal
oh cool
through good rng
Off a loop too good job mate
mithrix without looping feels way too tanky
Yea and you're more at the mercy of bad rng as opposed to if you loop
Trying to fight him and you didn't get any jumps or little movement speed is aids
having the movement but only doing peanut damage is also abysmal
unlucky
yeah
im just trying to get the achievement "The Calm"
i always get ended on the fourth stage though
Chaos, swarms, sacrifice might be able to help
chaos kek
I haven’t been able to get the calm either, so don’t take my words for facts
btw this weeks prismatic trial (for pc) is really easy(relative to yesterday ) if you watch cabbages trial
A) You need to find ways to negate the downsides of the difficulty. The best way I can think of is
- Lots of regen items
- Shield and Barrier (Transcendence is a maybe if you know how to use it)
- AoE items, like Ukulele, Ceremonial Daggers, Behemoth, etc.
- Bleed is really going to carry you, if you use a character that's good with it
B) Pick a character you're comfortable with, but also one that you know you'll do well with.
This is completely up to choice, and really doesn't dictate much other than what you know you'll do well with
C) have fun
It's not worth the item to get mad and quit the game because you can't beat a challenge. Just relax and take it easy, and you'll do great :)
Blinding assault can be fun and can go farther, as well as not stealing bands.
I was thinking ba should be paired with ww for cancel, and pair that with SW for more dps
And on the other hand evis should be paired with fa for expose proc
fa doesn't need ww bc it can't be canceled with right click
Band steal can be sad if you have royal capacitator
uppercut and fa both steal bands
objectively wrong
Isnt merc skills super player subjective?
They all feel on par in power
Just different playstyles
imo whirlwind has a synergy with blinding assault
Hm, i literally just kinda switch them around at random, they all work to me
technically sw has more dps but at least i think evis is better in mithrix fight probably
Both are good, but that’s opinion
oh that discord icon actually looks pretty nice
dps is pretty worthless comparatively to literally becoming invincible for a couple seconds
sw: dps+aoe, evis: INVINCIBLE
pair it with focused assault's expose you can use evis more frequently
For Mithrix winds being ranged is actually pretty useful
So you can FA dash through Mithrix and then throw slicind winds at him
Stopping by to say if you are good with ba and sw you will rarely get hit anyways so just get good, and also sw with ba has almost 3x the dps of evis with ba
e
Either evis + forced assault or slicing + blinding assault, no rising thunder only whirlwind
I think being invincible is even better than being ranged since all of Mithrix attacks are extremely telegraphed but do big damage
Or you can just not be close in the first place
Yeah you can play him like a ranged character, throw out sw every few seconds and do nothing, or you can rush into a group of mobs and stay engaged
It all depends on playstyle
you don't really want to play mercenary as a ranged character, you still need other abilities to trigger the expose procced by slicing winds
Honestly I think exposed is kinda weird
I like the extra damage but the 1 sec cooldown reduction is way too overhyped imo
ight I'll try
good luck :))
either you try hard and grind and eventually get that win or you can just use artifacts 
mfw when u use winds exclusively ranged, off cooldown, without aiming, top tier Merc gameplay, much dps, very engagement
i dont really like artifacts
feels invalid imo
i usually don't play with artifacts either, except for some unlocks 
tri tip or teddy bear
usually bleed if you're early game
depends on your character though, if you play loader then probably not
if rex then teddy
probably tougher times then
tri tip is good but not nearly as brainless as it was before
it can also negate your health cost
tri tip is still very good if you play commando/captain
or nailgun mul t
Have to disagree

is literally all you need
