ok
thank you
i was scared we needed to do runs inbetween to take advantage of the artifact
you dont have to
I more than likely will not 🙏
It only took like 15 mins it rly wasn't that bad I just never before actually attempted on a good prismatic trial
Yeah this is a really good one to do it on
The Merc achiev I mean
Just the blind pests on 1st can be a little aids
ya and the beetle that spawns while u go for the 1 tap on the boss
if you are able to please tell him gg i doubt il be able to get sub 20 il do some runs on the last day but i doubt it
thank you
Ok I’ve never done a prismatic trial what is it
so cabbage how is it able to fihure out a cheated run cause i belive the dude in eigth. but was xenons route beatable by almost 4 seconds on merc?
Does anybody here play prismatic on console? Something like what cabbage does,I wanted Slicing Winds
So I could get a good date to time travel,don't even need a full video
@hollow bone apparently this one is good?
Old version,hope it will work.
I'll check out when I get home monday then
im gonna say it
im niot gonna have neer record with this seed
glass just kills me
i cant kill time crystals fast enogh
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
#680
Don't know about a sub 1 for loader on this trial
Are you trying to steal Vulf's things lmao
people try every time, but they give up after a while
None can truly compare
to the dedication of once every 3 days for 5 years
Who the fuck is this character anyway
Why is she being fed a whole unprocessed cabbage
Ya we will see il do some runs today
No I just felt like Since I was awake I should throw 1 in
lol fair
The hermit crabs are gonna be a pita but hey I won't say I didn't try
Idk I do apologize for taking your thing tho volfoof
1:03.67 is the time to beat gl
Holy I got a sup 2 min on rg last night but who's it on rn
Wait it is a loader player
Nice
lmao its fine
routing is still shurican right?
i dont know what the route is but im trying to find it
||nope||
shit
ok weell shurican got me sub 2
loader just dies to the crystals tho
or
fk its chartged guantlet
using thunder guantlet.....
really
no i'm not, you just never should
i think i've only seen 1 or 2 trials where thunder gauntlet is faster over the years
ok that makes some sense
im trying to figure out how to do crystals without dieing
in probably doing it wrong
k welp i havent gotten better than a sub 1:54
and im gonna stop before i get to mad at myself for not finding the route so im gonna take a break
i will be back tho, gonna try again later
ok sub 57 is possible but that can be for someone else
The run: ||https://streamable.com/4k9ceg||
why not :)
im unskilled
i did sit and watch your loader video
great video btw
i also watched the sub57
i doubt my line could be that clean
i said it in the video, prismatics are great for learning her, so many weird interesting grapples come out of it for the fastest route
i also cant figure out howq death was avoided on the punch
The best I could do was 1:46 with railgunner
lvl 4 is enough HP to tank it with echo
Cool but ya I will start working on movement next cause the only reason I didn't beat xenon the last seed was cause my crystals were not clean at all
funny trial
@empty rover 🦖

dafuq those emojums for
Do you have a run that doesnt involve mercenary? I just want to complete it normally
The merc runs are specifically for getting the no-hit unlock for merc’s alt Special. Nothing’s stopping you from doing it with any other character. There’s not a no-hit requirement for it on anyone else
Though they do do runs with other characters on occasion
Yikes, how would a no hit run on Merc work?
like every cabbage video posted here lol
not no-hit just cant go below 90% hp
Ohh bet I'll start watching
dodge everything basically 😭 but yeah cabbage does it well u can just follow the route he takes as best as u can
u can also wait for an easy one, some take like 1m30s for even an average player but some take like 5+ for experienced ones
Thanks!
@empty rover etheREAL
1-7 & 9 are cheaters lol
Wow that cocaine guy is pretty talented
not a loader trial this time huh?
Didn't try with loader but railgunner is pretty speedy
Hacking code probably
Yeah I mean I'm not gonna say how to cheat but it really isn't hard to do
guys ive made automation for every standard crafting material. what should i focus on niw]
Think you're in the wrong discord
oops
just do anything and win
Gonna give this a run soon as I get the chance
i did mercenary's prismatic challenge but now im swapping to pc and im NOT doing it again but ik i gotta 🙁
last i checked i had #3 on the current Prismatic trial and I'm pretty proud of that
I can hadly believe someone can do this in 1:40, i can't imagine being strong or fast enough, and yet there are two people who did it that quick. and now I'm in 7'th place
1,2,4,6 are cheaters fyi
I only started playing loader less than a week ago, but It's crazy how good they are. half the people up there are loaders.
yeah loader is a fun one to learn, definitely recommend doing loader prismatics to get a better understanding of her movement
I'm number 13 in the list, let me tell you I stretched Bandit's capabilities thin to get him there lol
well number 16 now, but Idk any way to get my time better other then to be a better player
what equips are you using
I'm not the best, but this is my run for Prismatic Trials 9/17/25
did you beat my time 🥹
will be faster than
btw :)
good to know thank you
Ill try another run in around 5 hours
i'll record the route i came up with
sweet
your s1 route ended up being faster than mine so i took it
s1 can still be like 3 seconds faster
and s2 you can 1 shot both titans but i didn't shoot preon in the middle of em
Your run does give me an idea for a change I could make to the general flow but I gotta check some item stats
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover the cabbage.
hey I literally just joined the server to ask if anyone knew how the merc at #1 got there? Like I dont want to be throwing cheater aligations, but from what little I know about merc's kit this seems almost impossible. Is there something I am missing?
cheating
its usually, almost always, cheaters in first place
cringe
anyways, I have discovered how fun this is 2 trails ago, the first of the back to back command trials
I am enjoying trying to optimize my run, even if I am not the best it is enjoyable
this might actually be what forces me to play someone other then Railgunner/Engineer/MUL-T
Why does it seem like loader is never top of leaderboard
Because cheaters love using Merc and huntress
But like even not cheaters it doesn't seem like loader is ever ther e
Last trial she was, and she usually is at the top. The thing is you have to be knowledgeable about loader to be at the top, and she has a lot to learn and understand to get up there
I can definitely understand how loader is top tier for trials if you know how to play her, but from the last two trials ive come to the personal conclusion that if the trail incentives burst damage, railgunner seems to be the best for when the crystals are a great detour from optimal routing to needed items and the TP, while loader seems best for when there isn't much detouring needed to include crystals in optimal routing
thats just what I theorize at the moment I could be wrong about optimal burst damage centred trials
and i think wig and zinq have stopped running as frequently
so two of the best loaders arent showing up there anymore
loader's alt m2 has a bug which allows it to deal damage without consuming the charge, it only works at a certain distance though
So Loader does have a ranged crystal destroying ability
oh well I stand corrected then
hi guys! ive never really done the trials before! but i love this shit and am so happy theres a community here for it! I cant wait to learn a bunch from you all and stuff. I got a decent time and wanted to see what the top of the leaderboard looked like. anyone know?
lol its crazy joining a discord and seeing your name on a picture that was posted like a day ago! fucking surreal man
I might run it tomorrow if it's still the same trial
Who do you play? @tardy bay I’m so curious about this stuff lol
he often run loader
would be cool if the leaderboard also showed global of the same class
https://youtu.be/voA-5CU5tnA?si=4uuXo4JJMWN_5WSg pretty bad run, would do more attempts if i wasnt still playing silksong 24/7
Idk, stage 1 was horrible, i whiffed on the last crystal on stage 2, too boring for me to run more
https://streamable.com/z42wi6 i'll leave my time there
@tardy bay DAMN SON 😂😂😂 Loader speed strats look fucking crazy
shes got some swag to her runs thats for sure
@quasi swallow Yo dude the strat to shoot the crits before doing the railgun ult is so obvious and something I wasn’t doing 😂😂😂 I’d just railgun first but I bet I save a few seconds now thanks
@empty rover le cabbage
Had an actually good prismatic trial run going with loader. Made it to stage 3 before 10 minutes and had a Dios best friend. Then it went downhill because of the active artifacts causing a clone to spawn every 10 minutes and it will have all your items. THEY WOULDN'T STOP RUNNING AWAY I gave up at the 3 hour mark with 5 loaders all running away on stage 3
sorry, stage 3?
Indeed
In a trails run
Im confused
How
Prismatic trails end when u teleport out on the 2nd stage no?
yes
I meant 2 but it felt like 3 by the end
Is merc even good for trials ??
idk i literally havent done a single run with him
Slicing Winds-less? 
Mercenary is good for trials sort of
Can generally achieve a good position on the leaderboard, but aside from cheating, will not achieve first place
OMG FINALLY
I think the current trial is going to be one of the easier ones to get that achievement with all the enemies being beetles
Not anymore
I had it for like 10 hours once. Never have had it again
Hello
Am new on here
hello
@empty rover
are prismatic trials SOTS content?
Nope. Base
how do you access them?
Uh on the main menu screen there is a button for alternate game modes. Click that and it will have P-trials
interesting , i only have eclipse and sancrim-- something
does it need to be unlocked?
Simulacrum
that it?
I don't think so. Some guy said that he had to restart his game to see it
Yeah
It won't show up in the menus if you're running modded
The singular way hopoo tried to prevent cheating in prismatic. Very secure
i literally have both debugtookit and aerolt in the same modpack and it still shows up
You might have that wolfo mod that allows offline prismatics
riskyfixes has it too iirc
You on modded
@empty rover 6 years
these bombs keep ruining my run
not sure if you can boop stone titans with pylon, could save some time
119 I'd crazy tho
OMFG THANK YOUUU 😭 😭 😭 finally
just facetank with double brooch
@empty rover
26 seconds totally legit, I'm so proud the cheaters are so good at hiding it
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
Why is there a void seed......
ive tried like 50 times and took a break.
yaay did it
I tried this but I'm not doing it right 🤷♂️
Guess I'm never getting this stupid achievement
capacitor instead of tricorn for the cooldown
if you haven't noticed yet, these videos are 1440p for the time being since i'm on a laptop w/that resolution
Do today’s it has artifact of glass and command way easier
thanks @cyan stratus ❤️
@empty rover Trial (Prismatic)
we love cabbage in this house
How long has cabbage been doing this lmao?
Long
Thank you cabbage
Approximately 690 times
Impossible achievement btw
finally did it thank youu
today's is command and glass with a utility barrel really close to spawn, beatiful forecast for mercs unlock
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
Does metamorphosis still show up during prismatic trials?
Every night when I close my eyes..
Like a dream where purity lies.
A whiteness of Siphoned Forest...
I start dreaming of prismatic trials.
Another day, another night...
When the hacker takes their first-place right.
Top10 is getting tight.
Morning wakes me up, wakes me up...
This poem from me to all the players
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover cabcrid
@cyan stratus how do you do so much damage with eviscirate? I can't seem to one shot the crystals
I LOVE YOU CABBAGE THANK YOU SO MUCH I GOT IT
3rd slash m1
this achievement should be removed
It took me less than an hour as someone who has close to zero experience as merc
im probably just ass it took me like 3 hours
Depends on which one you did tho
this one
Ah I did the one with glass and command a few days ago
FR I was so confused he's just a god cuh 😭
Why do the moth looking things spawn when I spawn wandering vagrant In
so I just finished my ethereal achievement and I figured out some things
he oneshots with eviscerate because it isnt a oneshot. he buffers a primary3 + eviscerate to get an expose and the invincibility frame just right after eviscerate he primary + secondary.
if you get to the boss before 1 minute they usually dont spawn but idk the spawning mechanics behind that.
As a noob with Merc, I didn’t understand anything 
its like a combo of primary 3 -> eviscerate -> primary -> secondary all within a short timespan
It looks more complicated than it seems
it sorta is and its sorta not. it falls into muscle memory.
I wish I could make a video of the inputs
Loool it’s okay, thank you for taking the time to explain it to me. I tried for 2 hours the last prismatic trial and I didn’t succeed a single time because of that ig. breaking the crystals quickly without getting hit by the explosion was a nightmare (on top of all the other struggles)
I've done it
I can't seem to be able to kill the tp bosses fast enough before I get swarmed
@empty rover blueberry muffin
Okay so I figured out how trials determine their seed
It's strange up just your system clock on console
Went back a few days and sure enough I was able to play an old trial
Interesting, do the leaderboards work?
Btw check out the 4th pin in this channel
Didn't bother looking
I also found out something incredibly bullshit that I don't like
Dlcs don't work offline on console
...That explains a lot
Actually that's not the full picture
It works for Prismatic Trials as I'm assuming they're supposed to be the same for everyone
But you can't enable it in the main game nor pick any of the dlc survivors
Why the actual fuck did Gearbox make it this way
I feel scammed because of this
Weird ive played offline on console multiple times and ive had all the dlc content
Which console
Ps5
Because all the posts I'm seeing online are on Xbox
Ah yeah probably then
Is there a place I can put this in as feedback because I want this changed
Except I think it might be an Xbox thing, because there's a weird feature where some games just wont boot at all if you dont have internet
Maybe bug report? It totally doesn't seem intentional especially if ps5 and pc and switch are all fine
I DID IT.
I FINALLY DID THE TRIALS WITH MERC WITHOUT TAKING DAMAGE. :D
And hi everyone I'm new here
Wish I could send the image of the achievement.
gz. What was your strat?
Today's trial has lemy buddy's which i used for distraction and give them your heal and damage reduction items because your trying not to get hit in the first place, the enemy's are only children so the projectile is slow, manage your fall damage don't break your ankles.
For stage 1 when the timer gets to 9:55 use tp because your doppelganger is about to spawn, this is so you can cheese it. Use the expose dash, then the multi slash for crystals i am not good with remembering names.
Its also on for tomorrow, this trial.
Hope you find this useful and good luck
I some how managed to do it second try. Probably because the enemy's are easy to dodge.
Are prismatic trials suppose to change every time?
They change every 48 hours im pretty sure.
Mine are changing every try, i can't retry the same one
Thats weird.
Its the same every time for that trial
Until it rests
There's about 30 hours left on this one i did today
Maybe it's a protection against mods
Idk if mods affect it
Im really excited to play operator because he looks sick. Step aside bandit, I have a new favourite.
Every 3 days
Changing system clock on console changes your trial
So if the current trial is too hard you can go back
anyone else having a problem with the second phase of the horde of many? they keep teleporting under the map and i cant even finish
There's a cave that goes underground in that variant of the stage so I'd assume they're in there
Which ability is better for mercenary eviscerate or the prismatic trial one
personal preference
eviscerate gives you iframes
slicing winds gives you range
slicing winds gives range, aoe, and aoe expose
are there any certain survivors that are usually worse in prismatic trials and any that are usually better?
loader, railgunner, acrid, sometimes huntress and captain are usually the top but it'll depend on the seed
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
make a sigma bateman edit of cabbage clips
I am not that good at editing lmao
funny but still
I can do a lot of shitty recordings of a cabbage irl as well, I did the cutting one in half n another of irl cabbage watching cabbage
put googly eyes on a cabbage and make it watch cabbage
@empty rover squid
just recreate this video but irl
that's a great idea actually
I need your pfp
I dont like cabbage eather
classic cabbage haters not being able to spell
what is best way to beat prismatic trial for merc
Follow cabbages videos
what
look at pinned messages, cabbage is a person that every 3 days consistently uploads a tutorial to how beat the current trial (without taking damage as merc)
that's probably your best bet when learning how to get the achievement
^ this is the most recent trial as of right now
was custom made by a friend
konata x commando
It looks nice
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover le cabbage
Ahhhhh thank you very much cabbage
Is number one score on the merc rn real? That sub minute?
I got a close 3rd and I’m wondering if it’s technically second lmao
Lot's of times the top 5+ are huntress and Merc cheaters so if it seems unreasonably quick then chances are it's a cheater
considering the fact that the teleporter event itself is a over a minute long
Not for prismatic trials
Yeah soon as boss is dead you can go immediately. I have like a 1:25 rn on railgunner but seeing some of these scores above me is mad disheartening 😂
It's nice when a few people in here post their routes. I feel like playing off each other's strategies makes it more fun. I try to post when I do runs
THANK YOU SO MUCH CABBAGE BIG FAN
THIS ONE IS FOR U IVE BEEN AT IT FOR 11 HOURS
Lol I want to I’m just actually dumb and have never tried to record.
Captain. #1 is cheated
lots of little mistakes in this run
is sticky bomb necessary or is it to stall for diablo?
did not mean to send that image 💀
nvm i answered my own question
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbFiyBMKw0k xenon could never
risk of rain 3 leaked gameplay
jesus. even if I mirrored your merc run exactly I doubt there's any way that I'd be able to dodge all of those wisps and the jellyfish.
@empty rover halloween is approaching
I saw, very nice. How's that skip work? Just frame rate jank?
mine glitch, just throw at the same time 1st one explodes. easier on lower framerate i think idk
ah ok that's why you lowered it. I'll have to test it out. I know I've accidentally done it before just never knew why it happened
day 2 of trying to get an easy trial for merc
I'll update
wait it's still in 40 minutes
rank 133 first attempt
6:14.9 minutes not bad
New prismatic is fun! im working on lowering a 2:04 already mwahaha
i need guidance to get Ethereal
I’m gonna stop at 1:38 for now and hope that lasts. I want top ten this time for sure -_-
any1 know if that that 1:19 merc run a real run
nvm gang answered my own question again
You need to wait for the artifact of kin and was it called glass? that gives you more damage for less health
You could also just watch cabbage
@dreamy orchid yooooooooo wtf is that you at 1 right now????
Bada bing bada boom cabbage
Mhm
I could send u my route if u want but im at school rn
can someone ping me whenever an easier prismatic trial coems up? i hate trying to get ethereal
Yesss bro I wanna peep game Hmu when you can lol
i got u in a sec
the run isnt that good there are a LOT of minor improvements
atleast thats what it feels like
What equipment did you spawn with?
I’m so mad curious lol I busted ass for that time and you crushed my shit 😂
i sent the run in ur dms unless i can send it here
also i didnt use the 1 i started with
the 1 u start with stays the same for every1 i think
So fuckin clean 😭
Tyty
Ima hopefully get a better run tho bc there r clear mistakes which is annoying
@empty rover next trial halloween trial
Exciting
I believe you can change ur system time and day to a glass and command trial time period it will actually give you that prismatic
wait really? which one is the most ideal one?
Any of command and glass tbh
Is there like a list i can see or smthng
also i tried this and it doesnt work
cabbage youtube channel
i think if theyre pre-sots tho they'll be inaccurate
this trial is easy since you can get hit
@empty rover 2 more to go
till 700
yoo is there a new one since the one with the zenith constructs?
I love that this one is less of "kill everything before it touches you becausewe have glass" and is more thought out with the items. I was so questioning the slug until the printer 🤣
It's not that simple on pc
On pc it reads the time of the steam app to my knowledge and not your system clock
am i the only one who did one of these for scythe and never touched the mode again
Probably not but I still need to play mercenary for the alternate so I'm gonna be doing them a lot in the future
how does artifact of sacrifice work on trials is it like if i kill x amount of monsters will it always drop y item
like is there a way to know what item youll get from a certain kill
the item drop order is seeded but its completely rng how many kills it takes for them to drop
does it matter what type of enemy u kill
and does stage matter
I don't think it does
different stages have their own seeded list of item drops, also when tp event is active, sacrifice drops are less common
k tyty
@empty rover
Real quick since I'm too lazy to Google it, what was the unlock condition or whatever it was for ethereal on mercenary again?
The first 2 seconds of the video above you answers that
On phone, cannea see shite
Too smoll scren
As Mercenary, complete a Prismatic Trial without falling below 100% health.
Ah
@empty rover
Seven. Hundred. Trials.
We got there
You’re a savior
#700
I've been so busy that I haven't had time to actually make a 700th special item...sadly.
im kinda new to this, how are you ignoring the damage from the crystal explosion during your aerial whirlwind?
from what i can tell, you're doing like 3rd sword hit into eviscerate, then i think m1 + aerial whirlwind (on the first crystal)
then somehow you just Dont take damage from the crystal
just iframe from evisc
You should go to your LFG channel. People who are actually wanting to play with people will go there
Welp like I told the last guy, going into some random ass chat isnt going to help you, its just gonna get you muted for a week or smth
i doubt itll get you muted
unless it specifically states otherwise you can unlock characters on any difficulty, if you're struggling try lowering the difficulty
#701
Finished episode 6 of Dispatch, I am ||CRYING||
||Keep up||
||I cried as well||
Trying to do Merc challenge
Glass :D
Blind pests and Lemurian spawns :/
good luck
I almost got past stage 1 but it feels rng if pests hit you or not
Also the artifact that makes dead enemies spawns wisps is on so thats an extra thorn
impossible challenge
overloading claydunestrider stage 2 boss, too tanky to oneshot before mending elites spawn and it's way to precarious dancing around it's suck range while also tapping it enough to stop it's sheild coming back without ranged attacks
@empty rover
The new prismatic trial seems even worse for getting the mercenary move than the last
I got it on this trial 😭
tysm for this video
got the achievement just now
Idk I got it with this one. Blind pests are easier to dodge than wisps to me
can save some time if you find a fuel cell somewhere
@empty rover its cabbage time
#703
Today I'm going to the ren faire!
As a pirate 🏴☠️
This isnt prismatic, but it is trivial which is close to trial
See above cabbage post
Ik ren fair
just got #8
thank you gang
mercenary
see you all in risk of rain 3
@empty rover hi
So I saw that this mode lets you have a set seed and is multiplayer so can anyone help me get false son? On PC btw if the game isn’t cross play
prismatic trials are solo only my friend
also don't think you can get false son on it. Do gold portals ever appear?
you cant get to false son in prismatic trials, nor can you play multiplayer
im a merc main, have i come to the right place ?
Yea this is so you can find out when artifact of glass is in the trial
And get the annoying acheivment
the cool achievement
new mercenary skin (banana)
@empty rover
This one seems incredibly easy
that's the nature of RNG
Wait so is a prismatic trial every day or every uh
Idk
Every few days
Ah
You are the reason I was able to get the mercenary challenge done
Why are prismatic trials so laggy? I am trying to do the Mercenary challenge but I keep taking damage due to the lag. For example, Ill hit a crystal to get it low, I hear the sound of a hit, but the visual isn't there and it doesn't take damage, so I do another hit and then it suddenly decides to register the first hit and breaks the crystal, damaging me. Or I take damage from running where a fire enemy recently walked (although there are no fire particles even near me anymore). It is so insanely unpredictable and atm it seems like it is more about learning to play with crazy lag rather than play well
thats your pc, mate
Question, what happens in prismatic tirals if someone doesnt have all the DLC's? Do they get a different version?
Nah it's a exactly the same no matter what
Implying your game is updated
Is all the data for dlc stuff just in the game by default, and buying them just unlocks it?
The DLC's are added as updates buying the DLC's just unlock the content for you
I see, though i assume the characters aren’t in the game by default, right?
I'm sure If there was every a trial with metamorphosis there's a chance the seed would give you dlc survivor
But in standard game no
Oh, weird
Nah actually it's fairly straightforward
I’m curious on why games do this, I’m not a very knowledgeable person on games, but wouldn’t it be easy for someone to get a way to just activate the DLC content without buying it?
Ror 2 is an offline game in a lot of aspects and most platforms lock downloaded dlc behind an active Wifi connection so by putting it into an update with a dlc that flags your account for the content to be available, will always be available whatever situation you're in
At least that's how I've always interpreted it I'm sure a far more knowledgeable person could explain it better
I was right it was easy
When you use a build you'd never think would work
how to do this to get the Scythe ?
just get it play the mode and finish a match
Nope, I have 100% stable performance playing classic mode. My frames drop from 144 down to 60 after a couple of loops but that's it. I never have any lag whatsoever. My CPU and GPU are both sub 40% usage during prismatic trials yet the game is lagging.
this is my first time doing any trial and this one is kind of a pain in the butt 
whats the build everyones going with
I did it !!!!
YAY
didn't notice the daggers went after crystals (not sure if that's new) so killed a few more than was necessary
Me too just now
first time doing a prismatic trial how often do they update
@empty rover hat
I believe every 3 days
any tips? First time playing i need that scythe
i could also use some tips, im trying to do the mercy challenge and im a noob so any pointers would be appreciated!
nvm i got it
for this one, get a bunch of drones and find thebig chest at the top of the map , theres a gurenteed red and get the drone parts
Ok
hello
oh okay this seed is just unbeatable
i fucking hate command
Is stage 2 still different on ps5? Or have they patched that?
scroll up to Cabbage's video to see it beaten hitless
@empty rover the trials are prismatic
Cabbage
these trials are a torture method in at least 4 countries
What is a prismatic trial?
set seed time trial
where is my saviour cabbage
trial reset 40min ago btw
kinda slow
was labbing a boss skip pal
#708
No embed day for cabbage
todays trial was super easy imo, i got all 3 artificer alts in 15 min from it

with all the barrier items this achievement is basically given to you on a silver platter today its awesome
@empty rover embed hat
@empty rover pinned hat
Finaly after all these years, an easy trail… atleast my merc is finaly done
hey man that's what we're here for
And i appreciate that fact
i couldn't get this one in time :(
trying the new one rn and it looks possible but frustrating, i get a couple topaz brooch + razorwire then try to keep it up while navigating
surely theres a better way
this one was horrible
at least for me
too many lingering damage pools
but maybe im bad so
was too hard for me too as a new player
i got it now in the new stage relatively easily, just needed some luck
whats the modifiers
command, double spawns, wisps spawn on kill, friendly fire, and artifact of death/rebirth
thanks
pick your favorite items and win
Thank you
@empty rover prisma
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover trial gaming
If anyone wants ethereal this is the trial to do it
I’m still having trouble even using the method somehow😭
I spent maybe 5 hours total but I finally got it w cabbage
Is it still possible to select prismatic trial by changing date and time or did they patch it
Yeah you can still time travel for prismatics
Is there a specific method cuz I tried the only one I could find and it doesn't work
On pc not console btw
There's a program called runasdate
^it's used in 100% speedruns so there's info here
That's actually awesome
Oh also is it true that prismatic challenges change with dlc updates
So if I go back years they aren't the same as they were
it's possible without external programs if you change the date on your system, and then launch steam in offline mode (internet connection might need to be disabled too)
H
I've tried everything and still doesn't work
No wi-fi, changing the pc date, using the program, making the firewall stuff nothing changed
Why is it such a chore on pc while console you can change the date while playing
can the artifact of prestige show up in prismatic trials?
you need to relaunch steam for any method to work
I sorta gave up and did it the normal way
i want these enemies hung
God yes they are so annoying
blind pest: perfect accuracy
My nemesis in the stats menu is literally the blind pest
it's the fact they spawn like 7 of them with basically no warning
15.6% of my deaths are blind pests
does using the void things make the no hit for the merc invalid
also i'm assuming this void item invalidates it
pretty sure safer spaces does not invalidate it, but using a cradle and losing health most likely does
Yes
that's bogus
it's a good thing the only major threat is the first stage
because of the fucking blind pests
Be careful of stage 2 boss
no
cause if i build my character correctly i can kill them in 1 eviscerate
it's a fire solus control unit
yeah i'm not doing that rn
i genuinely fucking despise the blind pests
i'm taking a break
welp, thats all for me.
I got 25th place with railegunner, im quite happy
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
What was that for
@keen moss
@keen moss
you don't know?
I post it every cabbage
@empty rover cabbage cabbage cabbage cabbage
This prismatic trial seems just a lil easier than last time checked, prb some rng involved but still
i tried it earlier today and i got a different spawn
time contributes to spawns, could have gone a bit too slow
update changed spawn locations, probably meant that
if you get hit by lesser wisp you are a lesser player
i subscribe and turn on bell notification to be notified of next ethereal run
@empty rover prismatic trial
Prestige in prismatic trials is really funny
any loaders? xD as an old player, i haven't play the new dlcs yet. But this seed feel kinda reliable. Previous seed is hell for me
btw i deleted my old profile so i didn't unlock other skills of loader. It is just with default skills
“Oh My God Bruh, Oh Hell Nah”
dang it takes me equaly as long just to reach both teleporters walking
and then the fight starts
i could use cube tho to increase AOE
the wisps take a while for me to kill mostly due to drifters trouble hitting flying enemies
that and my loadout was much more boss focused
here is how i did
i did this but didn't record it while doing it so this video is just an representation
I didn't realize I didn't need to kill the void enemies that would save me a whole min
Does anybody know him? i mean, is he legit?
I like how the screen still says the top performers get “literally nothing for now”
Surely you could at least receive lunar coins if your time is under a certain minute count
its already heavily strewn with cheaters
adding a reward would just incentivize them further if they don't somehow fix the cheating issue
literally just work with steam & put vac ban on their account if they cheat, hopoo owns valve now
ah I forgot, hopoo owns valve now
@empty rover lairt citamsirp
1st clear as drifter
definetly gonna try again tho. those mending imps made the fight take alot longer and plus he leveled up mid fight and got half his health back
in the name of cabbage
top 10% should be rewarded with skins
I would love some kind of reward, this mode would probably get a lot more play
as much as I enjoy "nothing for now"
Yeah there's just too many cheaters to do anything like that and very doubtful the devs will touch the game mode in the future to fix it's numerous flaws
if the reward was like lunar coins or something that they already cheat in anyway it wouldnt make the issue worse
It would though lol. Definitely wouldn't make it better that's for sure
I would love more lunar coins, I have 17
any railgunners? (top 11 are cheating, are we surprised? no)
Uhh is there any reason why prismatic trials doesn’t appear at all, in the game modes tab, running some mods so idk
Prismatic trials is disabled when running mods
I see fair enough
There are mods to re-enable it, though obviously your run won’t be valid for the leaderboards
wait a minute
if theres moderation for prismatic trials leaderboards
shouldnt the top 10% of players be rewarded with literally something for now
Todays challenge is fun
blind run btw i could go faster didnt know where the teleporter was stage 2 plus i only picked up the teleporter items
now i do know ima go faster
alright i think thats good
theres gonna be some confused players up there seeing a drifter in the ranks
there isn't.
the devs of mods disable it to make sure people can't cheat
Tornado slam and clean up is a funny combo
i probably could go faster if i dug into my bag but just showing drifter taking on the teleporter without any damage items
it is a command and swarm day
i say its a good day
grab your topas and any hoard clearing items cause its alot of action and no wisps
bison bulls and beetle guards
pick your favorite items and win idk, double preon probably works too
@empty rover cabbag
Finally got the Mercenary achievement on this seed 🙌 thank you Artifact of Command
holy that's genius
Bandit isn't cheating he's just using underappreciated methods fr
i got a little addicted to todays prismatic trial as drifter its just too fun
yall gotta try tornado slam and clean up its peak
what char should i use to complete prismatic trials for the first time. im thinking like railgunner or loader?
both are one the best
@empty rover trial gaming
Does the gilded coast count as the second stage for a prismatic trial
no
is todays trial good for merc achievement
Theres a cheese spot for the 1st stage but the 2nd while annoying just dont touch the ground
Solus scorchers don't really know how to deal with flying units
Im definitely playing a different survivor for a good clear time tho mending solus scorchers horde of many is one of the few things my favorite drifter skill set up struggles to deal with.
I can group them up and burst but they get out quick plus clean up is just not allowed to pull out like 2 out of 4 legendary junk projectiles and both involve free money and the skull of 
That last one is a real shame too but i get it cause it deals soo much damage
yeah i saw cabbages video and tried to replicate it step by step
that last boss is a heavy merc skill check 🙏
i dont think my sanity can handle 3 minute increments of that again
I hate ittt so much merc captain and Rex are the only two I don't have full unlocked and this challenge has been pissing me off for months
I mean ofc just try to follow cabbages videos, but topaz brooches barrier doesn't count as loosing health, so you can also mix some of your own ideas in.
:S
chance shrine on the respawn node pushing you oob :P
grab 2 brooches and you can get hit as much as you want
@empty rover
Thank you Cabbage, i just wanna know what keeps you pushing to do these Mercenary Trials
Cause this gotta be more to it than the love of the game😭

Merry Christmas times

im lowkey addicted

@empty rover cabbage time
awesome
some characters spawn with trophy collecter, thats what i used
i played with chef and then i got the yellow item from the squid
and then used it to one shot the second stage boss
@cyan stratus do you have any tips for the trial?
yep i posted a video on it
I like how the menu still says the top players get literally nothing for now
the mending bell not dying to gloop made me sad
next trial is next year
@empty rover tilt your hat onto the pin button
Taking shield damage no longer invalidates Merc Ethereal
portal reference?
wait fr? that’s awesome
new year same achievement
@empty rover cabbage time
yipee
last year i put 2024 every date for like the 1st 10 months. this year i'll remember it's 2026 every time
prismatic trial
@empty rover
would it be better to take one of the lunar seers as to not get swarmed by invalidators?
Nvm it’s childs and Flying Vermin 
That pit maneuver is so hard to get correct
Great stuff
Hey everyone, I just joined the disc server and I had a question because I see some fast runs about 45 seconds on the prismatic trials, and I was wondering what resources there were to see how to do something like that. I thought about going to the bazaar and void fields but when i leave the void fields it just returns me back to stage 2 where the speedruns i see online it just finishes their run.
I also noticed that in the speedruns ive seen they have to donate to newt altar but this already has the blue and green portal available
I also even just found the newt altar and donated to it as well and it still didnt work
Previous version of the game had void fields increase the stage count, it got changed back to not counting as a stage I think with dlc2
There's a small chance that blue portals spawn naturally without newt, green portals spawn on dlc2 stages like in the current trial
OK, thank you so much. I’m a bit confused though because I see runs that are literally like 45 seconds are these cheaters or is this legit and what’s the meta for something like that? I’m pretty new to the game, but I felt like I had a pretty optimized run and I only got under two minutes.
Generally cheaters tend to use commando, huntress, merc and have impossibly low times. Generally the fastest trials will have enigma, command or glass
Some trials are just not great for fun speedruns unfortunately
ok got u thanks, is there anyway you could check out my run and give me feedback?
Yeah sure, I'll do a quick run as well to see how decent the pris is
ayy thanks
like i said im new, only had the game for like a week now so nothing crazy but this was fun and i wanna get better
That's pretty good for a new loader, s2 is pretty awful with the invalidators
The route looks decent considering you need the void band for s2, there's an apr next to tp s1 that will help too
Usually with enigma trials there's one survivor that has well suited equipment so I'll try and see if other survivors are better
Had a 1:31 with railgunner, I imagine she could go 10s faster at least
ooh fye ok thanks! yeah i just unlocked loader like 2 days ago so getting used to the movement
how do you unlock railgunner? me and my cousin bought the game at the same time, he got it and i didnt
ok bet thanks
I beat the trial cabbageless at the expense of many lunar coins
Used hooks of heresy which was quite effective but I am bad at dodging projectiles so it took some time
sorry idk what I'm doing does this trial end tmrw or thursday
i think tomorrow
does picking up shaped glass prevent you from the merc achievement
what time is top 1 and what hero can somone tell me
No
In fact, it makes it "easier" in that you either kill everything before it hits you or die and reset
i remember when I was doing the trial in like 2022
took me about an hour but i eventually got it thanks to a cabbage video
behemoth (brilliant)

Hey this one seems relatively easy
@empty rover cabbage
real?
damn not 1 lunar pod this time
top 3 are legit 
Definitely legit
sub1 commando when
never
Any lunar pods this time round?
Is this like a new update?
where is the cabbage
they posted, they just forgot to post it
should probably not pick up the luminous shot
so I post it for them and then post my cabbage anyway :D
swear i posted it, probably just got deleted by the mods for self promo
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
Holy that was clean
hi I just wanted to say that the prismatic trial of today is very good to get the merc achievement, got it in 4 tries as a new
player, only took about 15 mins In total with all the tries
nightmares over
dude i got it in 30 mins thank cabbage 🙏
@cyan stratus thank you mayne
oh my god the soon i joined this dc i watched your vid, below 10 minute i achieve the achiewment, thankyou so much good man
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover

is cabbage uploading these with the wrong year in the title
it appears to be
@cyan stratus hi sorry to bother you but your titles are saying 2025 lol
the most recent 3
sdfghjlk;dhklfgjklhg dfkldf fsdkl;'adfs kl;;'ads f
when your waiting for the first tele to finish do you have to slash randomly or is that just because why not
no
bro the grind to get that is real
how do you avoid the rng of getting the blazing imps to die
keep losing because 1 or 2 just survive
Damn wish i saw this
isn’t chaos on?
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover

probably suboptimal drones
do ppl just play prismatic on rainstorm, does it not matter what diff u play it on results wise or?
Rainstorm is the only difficulty for prismatics
am i the only one that struggles with that fuckass alt on mercenary?
im stuck with this for idk
2 weeks now
You are not the only one lmao, cabbage fills a very needed role
