#

and i thought the char that couldve set the next wr was railgunner

scenic surge
#

see that requires this pesky thing called aiming

dire plover
#

true

north berry
#

man i forgot how to create thumbnails

scenic surge
dire plover
north berry
#

fuck it

scenic surge

scenic surge
#

@north berry hehe

#

must beat C

north berry
#

so many hehes

#

is the chest on s1

scenic surge
#

all i can do is find better routes

#

ya'll are better at the actual huntress

scenic surge
north berry
#

time to wallclip now

delicate grove
#

well its arrow rain so atleast easier than ballista

north berry
#

i presume you're gonna lose time in s1 because of chest

scenic surge
#

well the item is pretty good too

north berry
#

uh

scenic surge
#

@wraith cipher hehe

unborn saddle
#

is today the last day?

dire plover
#

funny enough no

north berry
scenic surge
#

once i beat C i'll do a vid

unborn saddle
scenic surge
#

well uh i didn't end up beating C yet, but in route I just grab the energy drink s1

vivid cedar
#

xenon beat C

vivid cedar
#

also proves that C was just playing very well

north berry
#

ok i beat C just have to beat this other guy

pure cypress
#

what is route

#

out of my skillset here

north berry
#

also m2 kinda fucky in s2 now with the item

#

||energy drink||

pure cypress
#

which chest sorry

north berry
pure cypress
#

ty ty

delicate grove
pure cypress
#

we get purity

delicate grove
#

where does the rusted key box even spawn on s2

north berry
#

funny enough it spawns close to a crystal near spawn

delicate grove
vivid cedar
#

why did i shoot two arrows in a row

pure cypress
#

game sucks

#

ive had it happen before but i have no clue why it does that

empty rover
#

I'd guess an animation cancel somehow

vivid cedar
#

not bad if this triggers stably

empty rover
#

you did open a lunar pod while firing so maybe that's what triggered it

delicate grove
#

do it with glaives

vivid cedar
#

i love the sub 40 route where they cancel glaives, just like swim in the air lol

north berry
#

the glaive anim is slooow

vivid cedar
#

keep canceling glaives to keep altitude is quite new to me

delicate grove
#

its even slower with flux pauldron

pure cypress
#

dont get me started

delicate grove
#

@pure cypress pb?

vivid cedar
#

hes 40.6 now

delicate grove
#

btw whoever wins i will sub to their twitch channel

north berry
#

too bad i dont have a twitch. oh well

#

one of these is not like the others

vivid cedar
#

humorous

#

seems some1 is burried in a huntress sea now

north berry
#

hmm i kinda wanna see how many huntresses are there in the top 100 atleast

vivid cedar
#

we won't know unless the heretic activates their secret powers

north berry
#

i feel like almost every character can sub 1

delicate grove
#

did we get an engi sub 1

north berry
#

like ever?

delicate grove
#

yeah

north berry
#

probably in the past yeah

delicate grove
#

probably not good enough

#

we need a google spreadsheet with links to fastest recorded times with all characters

#

get it done mea

north berry
#

missing: void fiend, bandit, merc

#

1.0 update times should definitely count devious_hehe

vivid cedar
#

engi record here

#

also a #1 engi btw

pure cypress
vivid cedar
#

what a pain

vivid cedar
#

i wonder if they will add a scroll wheel to the SOTS version of the ptrial in the future to allow players to see more information about the leaderboard.

unborn saddle
#

add coins reward first😫

north berry
#

You can just cheat it racesRat

vivid cedar
#

sub 41 when i turn the game into a high resolution

#

then i can have a rest

scenic surge
#

well I can’t beat that

vivid cedar
#

C?

north berry
#

rip wig

scenic surge
#

the sub 39s

unborn saddle
pure cypress
#

yipee

delicate grove
pure cypress
#

i think im good with that

#

i wanted to hehe zinq but nah

delicate grove
#

whats the best time atm

north berry
#

38.80

delicate grove
#

by C?

north berry
#

...yes

pure cypress
#

X

delicate grove
#

show pic of leaderboard

pure cypress
delicate grove
#

ty

pure cypress
#

np :)

delicate grove
#

someone should get sub 38.50

#

@pure cypress

pure cypress
#

nah i dont want to wallclip

north berry
#

im not even wallclipping

pure cypress
#

surely needed for 38.50

lapis crane
#

Knock your time any lower and you might get banned from risk of rain 2

#

Lol

delicate grove
#

the true prismatic trials reward

vivid cedar
#

so how much time a wallclipping can save

#

just curious, i already stop ptrial on current one (skill issue

pure cypress
#

in theory it should be able to save 2 dashes

vivid cedar
#

so its ~1 second

pure cypress
#

taking current cooldowns into account its probably around 0.7-0.8

vivid cedar
#

okgup

pure cypress
#

but im also bad, so its probably even less

vivid cedar
#

seems no1 would like to try this now

#

so no prob 🙂

delicate grove
#

@north berry any pbs

north berry
#

3 hundredths off

delicate grove
#

u can do it

north berry
tardy bay
#

Very clean racesOk

lapis crane
#

Only on a glass and command trial could I do merc ethereal vs artifact of kin + wisps

delicate grove
#

@north berry update

north berry
#

nothing

delicate grove
delicate grove
delicate grove
#

just 3 hundredths

north berry
#

my right hand hurts

delicate grove
#

💀

north berry
#

uh

delicate grove
#

i knew you could do it

north berry
#

i thought i didn't had it

vivid cedar
#

so

#

thats the end

north berry
#

guess ill settle for joint. im spent 🫠

vivid cedar
#

does this mean there are three decimal places

#

or it just randomly ranks people with the same time

north berry
#

i dont wanna think about it. im absolutely dead inside rn

delicate grove
#

i will check this

vivid cedar
#

lmao

delicate grove
#

that time is 38.80 exactly

vestal inlet
#

I think ties are decided by steamID*?

delicate grove
#

hmm interesting

vestal inlet
#

*(citation needed)

delicate grove
#

well now im 3rd place with a 38.80 but this one was with the time value being 38803.9

#

so it either rounds down to .80 or rounds up to .80

#

which i think means that mea's run was 38.79

#

and xenons was just above .80

vivid cedar
#

game actually has such precise calculations

delicate grove
#

yeah now im back at 1st again after submitting 38794.1

#

i guess theres the possibility that both mea's and xenon's run were both exactly .80 but i doubt it

#

im not sure how the leaderboard would choose if it was an exact tie

vivid cedar
#

refresh

north berry
#

its over anyways

delicate grove
#

back to regular trials

north berry
#

so its tied or not

#

i gotta title my vid accordingly hehe

delicate grove
#

very unlikely but possible

#

more likely is that your run was faster

vivid cedar
#

just follow the leaderboard i thought

delicate grove
vivid cedar
#

that means heretic was fast 🙂

delicate grove
#

well i proved that the leaderboard sorts by a more detailed time value than what you see but do with that info what you want

vivid cedar
#

lol im joking, i know u finally canceled ur time

delicate grove
vivid cedar
#

final result

north berry
#

all huntresses

north berry
#

im gonna take a long-ass break

delicate grove
unborn saddle
unborn saddle
#

5k hp ice Stone Titans

vivid cedar
#

just lure them to fall out

vivid cedar
#

seems every1 ran away when the god seed ended

#

then the cheaters took over the leaderboard again

delicate grove
unborn saddle
winter crystal
#

why is new trial impossible

vivid cedar
#

dym ethereal?

#

its possible but hard, on s1 u should lure these two titans to fall out of map, on s2 idk if any brooch there, but u can just wait for vanilla enemies spawn and kill the void enemies in the void seed.

#

better wait for next trial, or if cabbage post a better method.

#

also can search for some range item if u can (i havnt play current one much though

#

wait, i forgot the preon on s1, just take it for s2 void seed clearing

#

still hard though

winter crystal
#

fr

#

didnt think about walking them off though

#

how do you lead them off the edge my wont leave the teleporter area?

vivid cedar
#

if u r far enough they will follow u since they havnt enough range to use stone fist @winter crystal

#

even when u r in range they will still follow u in a really slow speed (if no eclipse

scenic surge
#

now I sleep Drizzle

lapis crane
#

definitely not one i could do the merc challenge on lol

#

looking forward to seeing how cabbage manages

cyan stratus
opal dirge
#

@empty rover

#

he did it

proud quail
#

wow

#

well fricking done

lapis crane
#

squid polyp surprisingly helpful

empty rover
#

Squid Polyp gets slept on too often

vivid cedar
#

if some1 gets ethereal from current trial then they worths it

scenic surge
quartz phoenix
vivid cedar
#

engiclueless hehed

#

so whos the guy #2 now?

#

the mercenary

quartz phoenix
#

yea

#

hehed again

quartz phoenix
deft axle
#

7 in the world?!?! with 3 minutes?

#

@quartz phoenix you got passed by a huntress

vivid cedar
#

congratulations on winning the #7 in the world

deft axle
#

now i am 9

#

cabbage beat me

cyan stratus
dire plover
#

th is this trial

proud quail
#

@empty rover

lapis crane
#

Just from a glance it looks simple enough to get the Merc challenge done on (no ranged enemies)

quartz phoenix
quartz phoenix
#

the power of heretic

delicate grove
#

oops

scenic surge
#

"oops"

quartz phoenix
dire plover
#

what

#

why is it lower

quartz phoenix
#

how do you do imps fast? @delicate grove

delicate grove
#

ofc i do them fast

#

oh

#

i shoot them with heretics primary

quartz phoenix
#

oh interesting

#

why didnt it work

unborn saddle
delicate grove
quartz phoenix
#

where did you get a preon from?

delicate grove
#

the equipment multishop?

quartz phoenix
#

am i blind i cant find it?

delicate grove
#

its like behind where you spawn

quartz phoenix
#

oh ok

rugged charm
#

Guys guys guys what’s the easiest prismatic trial for mercenary ethereal on console

#

I can time travel so any date is fine

rugged charm
#

Nvm guys I got it

lapis crane
#

time travel ??

mossy cosmos
#

I'm guessing the game draws the date and time from the console, and the game still has the same prismatic trials 'attached' to said dates

whole cedar
#

Probably generates seed based off date lol. Never thought about it but makes sense

#

Wonder if that means cabbage could just sit down for a weekend & complete the next month of trials & schedule them so he could take a vacation

scenic surge
#

he entirely can

delicate grove
#

theres only like 2500 trials total so wouldnt take that long

whole cedar
#

Then it repeats?

delicate grove
#

i believe it breaks for a few years or something, and then repeats

#

@vestal inlet knows what happens

whole cedar
#

Lol that’s kinda funny

chrome laurel
cyan stratus
lapis crane
#

i found out what happens if you dont wait

proud quail
#

@empty rover

lapis crane
#

also for anyone that wants to do it faster tricorn is the 9th item in the adaptive chest on stage 1 so you dont have to bait the imp overlord on stage 2 off the stage

fleet crow
#

hey @empty rover previous 2 trials are still pinned

empty rover
#

Yep!

#

Can't unpin on mobile

opal dirge
#

we love mobile discord

vestal inlet
# delicate grove <@419244526608187415> knows what happens

Yep! On steam, sometime during the 2362nd trial the game bugs out and then gets stuck on trial # -5923 essentially forever. I did test if trials actually loop, and it seems they do not. I know the cause and can go into exact technical details if anyone's interested.

delicate grove
#

is the last trial fun atleast

vestal inlet
#

It's not spectacular: command + sacrifice, distant roost into titanic plains, both bosses are beetle queens

#

not too bad though

delicate grove
#

ew

vestal inlet
#

The way the game determines the seed for Prismatic Trials is by counting how many cycles (3 days) have passed since the first trial (on 2018-08-27). It takes that number, then bit shifts it to the left by 32 (multiplies it by 2^32), which ends up generating a fairly random looking number, at least in base 10. As a side-effect this sets the upper bound for the number of trials at 2^32-1 (seeds 0x00000000 00000000 - 0xFFFFFFFF 00000000). That's a lot of trials! There's a catch though. The way the game determines the current cycle is by querying the Steam servers for the current timestamp. This is done indirectly using the Steamworks library's GetServerRealTime() function.

This is where things get interesting! The value returned by this function is a 32-bit unsigned integer. Nothing wrong here, and this doesn't limit the number of seeds on it's own, but what does the value represent? Well, this value is the seconds elapsed since the Unix epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00). Why is this a problem? Remember that a cycle lasts 3 days. This means that the upper bound for the number of trials is now all the way down to (2^32-1) / (3 days in seconds) = 16570 trials over 136 years. That's still a lot of trials, but that's not all! Remember that the Prismatic Trials epoch starts on 2018-08-27. Since the GetServerRealTime() function starts at an earlier epoch and effectively does not overflow, that reduces the number of trials down to ((2^32-1) - (Prismatic Trial epoch in seconds since the Unix epoch)) / (3 days in seconds) = 10646 trials over 87 years. This is a lot fewer trials than the Seed generation supports, and would stop functioning after 2106-02-07.

#

BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE! The Steamworks implementation for GetServerRealTime() internally uses a signed 32-bit value to determine the current time, which means it's affected by the Y2038 bug, and effectively halves the available active time for trials. With the consideration that the Prismatic Trials epoch starts roughly 47 years into the Unix epoch, that leaves the total number of trials at 2362 trials over a mere 19 years!

What happens after the active time runs out though? Well, once GetServerRealTime() reaches past it's maximum value of 2^31-1 (0x7FFFFFFF) on 2038-01-17 at 03:14:07 AM (which happens very early into trial 2362), it starts returning -1 due to the internal overflow condition (this is consistent with a 32-bit time_t implementation). Further, -1 will be returned for as long as the internal overflow check holds or the library is updated to account for the Y2038 bug, meaning Prismatic Trials would be frozen forever.

Now for the part which I don't quite get and haven't tested extensively. Somehow, it seems like the -1 makes it into the calculation for the seed cycle as a signed 32-bit integer despite explicitly being converted to an unsigned value in both the game and the libraries. As a result, the seed calculation will now always see the current date and time as 1969-12-31 11:59:59 PM, sees that this would be cycle #-5923, and finishes converting the value to the unsigned seed value of 18446718634618257408 (0xFFFFE8DD 00000000). If GetServerRealTime()'s -1 was interpreted as 2^32-1 (0xFFFFFFFF), the cycle would instead jump ahead to #10646 with the seed 45724221833216.

As a result, Prismatic Trial seed 18446718634618257408 on 1970-01-02 (due to inconsistencies in the date calculation) is effectively the final Prismatic Trial seed. This brings the grand total of Prismatic Trials to 2363!

#

TL;DR: Game mixes incompatible epochs and time spans. Steamworks library suffers from the Y2038 bug. Trial #2362 becomes the shortest active trial at just 3h14m07s. Trials after 2038-01-17 become frozen forever at 1970-01-02.

lapis crane
#

So is that when Cabbage retires

whole cedar
#

Apparently. Appreciate the explanation, very cool stuff

lapis crane
#

If anyone's still playing risk of rain 2 in 2038 lets hope it's not hard to get the mercenary challenge done when the trials freeze forever

whole cedar
#

o.o

lapis crane
#

When i get home later today I'll see if I can figure out time travel in prismatic trials and see what the last trial ever will be like

quartz phoenix
#

why no s2 tp boss?

empty rover
#

Existentially terrifying!

lapis crane
#

i will now be time travelling to see what the final prismatic trial is going to look like

hollow cairn
#

guys where is stage 2 tp

#

im lost

#

nvm

#

wait why is the tp charging

lapis crane
#

Looks like I can't time travel that far
Steam isn't able to start EyesShake

#

Well if anyone can figure out how to launch Steam with the date set to any time in 2038, let me know

It just won't boot for me when I try

vivid cedar
#

go bazaar and get another s2 to solve this

cyan stratus
proud quail

vivid cedar
#

yes

north berry
#

my net slow not_hehe

vivid cedar

idk how much time u spend on buttons but i feel likes i make a mess

north berry
#

my s1 similar except grappling rock and aerial grapple reset.

#

how did you do s2 besides the button part

vivid cedar
#

i pressed E towards the air and quickly looked around at each button

#

missed them very precisely lol

north berry
#

im pretty sure thats the button part engiclueless

vivid cedar
#

i ll try it later, maybe should stop sprinting at the buttons part

north berry
vivid cedar
#

@north berry dont make me boss skip on this trial, last warning

north berry

afk on multi players game

vivid cedar
vivid cedar
#

thats whole route, no difference on s2 except for the more fluent buttons

quartz phoenix
#

finally did the route properly

#

kinda

vivid cedar
#

if there were no optimization on the route, wont continued with the current trial

quartz phoenix
#

how many times have you guys picked loader?

vivid cedar
#

gonna have a check

quartz phoenix
vivid cedar
quartz phoenix
vivid cedar
#

two saves, first one was when i mainly played in multi players game

north berry
#

ft. german

deft axle
vivid cedar
#

is the pattern better than honor?

quartz phoenix
north berry
#

im pretty sure dissonance and honor codes have the same number of inputs

#

i just prefer dissonance because there's a chance i could screw up the middle part of honor. plus i feel like i move better with the dissonance code

delicate grove
#

wait ive been doing enigma code this whole time

delicate grove
scenic surge
#

wig try not to boss skip challenge

delicate grove
#

pretty sure i got this one in around 10 attempts too

quartz phoenix
quartz phoenix
#

finally a better time

plain coyote
#

when tf we gon get rewards for it

#

ALSO if you hold back on the ballerina move as merc (I love calling it that) you do a v turn and if you do it to a slant… I dunno see what happens (I main merc fuck you loader isn’t better) not personal I just love my mercy boy (fuck you guys if you think merc is easy) cause he is and agree. ON APRIL FOOLS [laugh.mp3] fuck I’m so funny hehe. Anyways I love you speedy little loader mains. Stop making fun of us mercs though we’re speedy too you assholes. Love yuh 😉

#

WHAT

#

this changes everything

quartz phoenix
#

im so confused how?

Can you clip through walls to deal with the mushrooms on stage 1 to take no damage?

lapis crane
#

Cause stage 2 is free but I can't get past stage 1 without taking damage

#

Did it but stage 1 is definitely the hard part

copper charm
#

what are the stage two enemies

#

oh

lapis crane
#

stage two is beetles

#

stage one is mushrooms

copper charm
#

wait what

#

i have the flying pest things

lapis crane
#

are you on console

copper charm
#

yea

lapis crane
#

its different between console and pc

copper charm
#

why??

#

everytime i try to do these i get a flying enemy

lapis crane
#

you have to take your time with the mushrooms but take too much time and your doppelganger will mess everything up

#

spent like 6 minutes on stage 1 and speedran stage 2 after that

#

if there was a primordial cube on stage 1 this would be absolutely free but there isn't

#

only equipments available are:

  • Disposable Missile Launcher
  • Crowdfunder
  • Blast Shower
  • ? (Jade Elephant)
  • Forgive Me Please
#

The green ? in the multishop on stage 1 is a Ghor's Tome

#

and with items like these FMP is useless

lapis crane
#

also if you go to mithrix he's overloading and the artifact of kin spawns nothing but the lunar chimera wisps 😭

is it just me or is the loader audio a bit quiet

i thought thunderslam was really loud

north berry

i think they broke the loader audio

scenic surge

loader audio is now attached to master volume instead of sfx volume i think

north berry

thunderslam is still loud lmao. you can hear it at 1%

Yeah

#

Stage 1 you can clip through the stage and get the apothecaries to walk off a cliff

#

Stage 2 you lure the magma worms to fall off the stage

lapis crane
#

that dead cells skin review is the most interaction we will ever get out of these cabbage videos

finally prismatically alined this was as super easy prismatic trial lmao

love how the artifact is useless here

this prismatic trial is by far the easiest one for any new players to unlock preon with lol

@quartz phoenix hello

@quartz phoenix ruddy

hello?

#

i feel like theres still 1+second left for optimization

north berry
#

did you boost with preon?

vivid cedar
#

not at all

north berry
#

time s1

vivid cedar
#

22s

north berry
#

ah so its the same regardless of boosting

vivid cedar
#

i miss a shot on the air

north berry
#

oh no preon strat

vivid cedar
#

and bad landing spot

#

heres my s1, idt it needs a preon boost at this distance

north berry
#

preon can 11s tp entry

#

i'd do it but i'm retired 😔

vivid cedar
#

barnacle killed me sevaral times so i dont want to try again

north berry
#

cryo necessary for titan?

vivid cedar
#

both speci skill can one hit titan

north berry
#

yeah ik that

#

i meant m2 or r

vivid cedar
#

i see

#

i think m2 will be 0.5~ second slower than r in killing titan

#

heres my route btw

north berry
#

maybe cryo in jump-pad so no waiting?

vivid cedar
#

is the boost speed enough?

#

idk

#

gonna have a try

north berry
#

i cant aim for some reason Drizzle

vivid cedar
#

really? good news for mehappiesttroll

#

relying on only cryo's boost isnt enough for this distance

#

have tried this

north berry
#

i think you can

#

with mines

void snow
#

im trying to unlock mercnarys second special by not taking damage, but theirs a void field enemy inside of a void field and i have to kill him to leave
is it possible to without taking damage?

dire plover
#

if it's not a barnacle try luring then out

void snow
#

it is a barnacle

dire plover
#

oh

#

void seed enemies shouldnt be mandatory to kill to leave tho

void snow
#

thats weird, i dont get why it says its apart of an objective, just like the teleporter

#

thx

mighty vault
#

Which stage is the void seed on

#

If you ever get sky meadows you can use the artifact portal to leave instantly

#

And it counts

dire plover
mighty vault
#

When I went for the achievement it was apparently the best seed for the challenge ever released

#

Artifact of Glass active with stone titan boss and TP very close followed by stage 2 meadow

#

Literally took 2 minutes with minimal risk

lapis crane
#

What I did was I subscribed to Cabbage with notifications on so I got a notif every time they showed the new prismatic trial damageless

#

There's a few trials every month where the challenge is doable by the average person and maybe one where it's braindead easy every 2 months

pylon i assume

scenic surge
#

yeah

#

i respect my ears

quartz phoenix
#

are you also using goobo?

scenic surge
#

yuh

#

idk if she does much though

quartz phoenix
#

just realised you can grapple reset the crystal from the equip barrel

quartz phoenix
#

im going insane i hate wisps

lapis crane
#

at least the devotion update added two new artifacts that don't make prismatic trials any harder

lapis crane
#

they can potentially take the place of spite, soul, honor, other artifacts that make these trials significantly harder

quartz phoenix
#

i wish metamorphosis was in trials

lapis crane
#

what would be the point in selecting a survivor then

quartz phoenix
#

there wouldnt be

regal junco
#

sheesh yall crazu

#

This was like 14 tries

zenith plinth

Damn people really out here on acrid making me proud :3

regal junco

can probably one shot the end boss

#

vs having to weak snipe spam with rg

zenith plinth
#

Curious which items they are picking up

regal junco
#

none id assume

#

maybe the clone

zenith plinth
#

Hmmm maybe I’ll give it a shot

#

I hit close to 1:40 with RG already

zenith plinth
regal junco
#

IG IDK how you are supposed to kill the crystals fast enough

#

huntress I could maybe get a 1:23 if I optimized but im too tired

zenith plinth
#

You got time to relax and try later

#

Someone did 1:16 with hunt so 1:23 should he doable once you find the pathing

fair horizon
#

Does attackspeed affect how fast I charge my nano bomb on artificer?

fair horizon
#

Are there no scrappers on command?

#

I wanted to get 20 multikill with artificer but took a single razorwire

#

Omg wrong chat I apologize

lament zenith
#

Yes the only exception is a chance for a scrapper to be in a specific spot in the new stage verdant falls

zenith plinth
#

Man I wish I could see how these acrid or even railgunners are getting sub 1:20, I don’t even make it to the second teleporter until 1:16, highly impressive speed runners

quartz phoenix
#

you could probably ask sparkle they will usualy send a vid

M1 cancel maybe

unborn saddle
zenith plinth
# vivid cedar M1 cancel maybe

Even by m1 cancel tho they would still have to kill all 3 crystals and start the first teleporter by 20 seconds before the healing birds spawn over the two boss vultures

that is sad. Saw a reddit post of people asking for it from a year ago

#

thought there would be a way by now

#

just wanted to see the top ranks, so thanks though

dire plover

maybe gearbox will one day make the leaderboard scrollable

#

how is that acrid doing 1:12? is there a moving tech I dont know? best I can do with little wasted movements is 1:28

quartz phoenix

idk xenon is insane

#

ill give acrid a shot

#

i got 1:26

#

got a 1:15 as railgunner

#

is the mocha drop random?

dire plover
#

sadly yes

dang it that sucks

the enemy it drops from is random yes

also, do you teleport to the next stage faster if you have less money?

quartz phoenix

yes

oooh

#

ty

runic torrent

got 1:25 on acrid but im out of ideas for cutting more time. That 1:12 acrid must be a god

#

For anyone who doesn’t have slicing winds and isn’t a god merc like cabbage, you can kinda cheese this trial if you are good at dodging the lizard fireballs on stage 1. Just rush the teleporter, kill boss and then kill everyone on the map. Spam the equipment items until like minute 9-10 depending on when you start spam activating equipment. Whenever you land on the preon accumulator, go to stage 2 and one shot the boss with it

New record for me

sorry for my venting outbust, i've doing this challenge for 6+ hours the "normal way" like the devs intended. Like i can't even take this anymore. I'd rather hitting my balls for 1000 times than doing this

vivid cedar
#

route theif here @quartz phoenix

#

i was totally copying ur route and got a same time

loud path
#

why do people auto attack constantly on merc? is there some kind of animation cancel?

dire plover
#

correct

#

you can animation cancel the 3rd hit of merc's primary into other skills to make them apply expose as well

zenith plinth
compact steppe
#

the preon thingy doesnt seems to travel far? or i need to shoot at shotgun point?

#

either way i reach the stage 2 boss like 4 times but i keep getting hit by either birds or wisp

zenith plinth
#

By the time he spawns, preon shoots and 1 shots

#

And you hit teleporter and escape

compact steppe
#

the preon ticks, no? drizzle_hmm for me it doesnt one shot, the boss just 2/3 hp down

zenith plinth
#

Preon explodes on impact

compact steppe
#

nevermind, either way i give up. maybe wait till we have any lucky cheese seeds

zenith plinth
#

You should be able to kill with the tick also as long as you don’t aim above his head

#

It’s really simple, the hardest part is just waiting the 8 minutes on stage 1

compact steppe
#

i just don't want to do another, ive been on this challenge for 6-7 hours. Judging from the 4 years ago thread i found on the internet the devs wont change any of this unlocky skills requirement soon. So maybe we get any lucky seeds then

zenith plinth
#

Yeah I feel you, it is time consuming. But you will most likely have to wait for the perfect seed which who knows when :p

compact steppe
#

i am sorry milli, i know u meant good. Its just that i want to play this game for fun, and trying to do this isnt fun at all and it been making me more and more angry. My mental health already not good.
But i appreciate your helps alot, thank
