you can sprint while u charge rebar, right?

heady abyss
#

im using mult and doing the preon strat and the shortest time i can get is 3 mins idk how the fuck you guys are getting such low times. the only item i grab is preon and the wax quail from the boss

bold falcon
#

i grab the armor piercing and soda can

heady abyss
#

hmm i will try

crystal trench
#

I don't think I can push merc further than 2:43 :(

cosmic peak
crystal trench
#

...

#

Guess I've gotta push merc further

cosmic peak
#

found new strat

#

boost yourself with crystal

#

extra time lmao

#

let me see if I can get that on video

crystal trench
#

Okay I can get sub 2:40 with merc

#

I figured out how

#

Give me 10 minutes

cosmic peak
#

GL

bold falcon
#

slowly getting better

cosmic peak
#

Nice

#

That's with Preon I presume?

bold falcon
#

yea

tribal bolt
#

is it worth grabbing the fuel cell from the shrine of chance?

bold falcon
#

do you guys grab the soldiers syringe

cosmic peak
#

I grab soldiers just for extra dmg

#

but not sure if should just go ham on beetle

bold falcon
#

i honestly think might not be worth

#

but im still testing

#

brb

cosmic peak
#

I'm losing time sniping crystals

#

that's prob why

crystal trench
fossil jackal
#

god

#

I just can't even do this it feels like

#

: |

bold falcon
crystal trench
#

Do you think sub 2 is possible?

bold falcon
#

@cosmic peak soldiers syringe definately not worth

crystal trench
#

@fossil jackal What's goin on man

#

What's the issue you're having with getting better times?

bold falcon
#

i think the most time save i can do is order of killing crystals gonna work on that now

tribal bolt
#

getting crits on crystals is pretty nice

cosmic peak
#

kk not worth got it

crystal trench
#

Man I feel like I can still go faster

#

I'm gonna have to try to push for 2:30 I guess

bold falcon
#

i click first teleporter at 1:17 is anyone going faster

crystal trench
#

I click it at like 1:40 LMAO

bold falcon
#

but youre doing merc right

#

mult burst is nuts

crystal trench
#

Yeah

fossil jackal
#

257 w/ huntress

crystal trench
#

Mult is scary

#

Damn blank

#

Nice dude

fossil jackal
#

that was first try

#

need to optimize route now

crystal trench
#

This was sent in context to prismatic trials

#

Friends, Merc is fine

#

Mul-t is just ridiculous

bold falcon
#

theres a merc at 2:12 on my leaderboard

#

so theres hella potential

crystal trench
#

Yo what?

#

Holy shit

#

Can you send screenshot?

bold falcon
crystal trench
#

There's gotta be something I'm doing wrong

#

Goddamn

urban flower
#

right?

#

I can barely get a sub 4 and I'm really speeding

fossil jackal
#

245 huntress

crystal trench
#

Soulrider

#

What's your route

#

And who are you playing

urban flower
#

merc

crystal trench
#

Oh

#

Not sure how those guys go so fast

#

But this is my route

bold falcon
#

what the fuck i was going so fast but beatlequeen spawned god knows where

#

wrong side of pillar

#

๐Ÿ˜ 

crystal trench
#

RIP

bold falcon
#

that is so sad monkaS

#

was at beatlequeen at 1:49

crystal trench
#

Holy shit lol

wooden light
#

merc pride

crystal trench
#

Your friend at 15 min LOL

wooden light
#

IT BE LIKE THAT SOMETIMES

#

I don't understand how to use the active effectively

crystal trench
#

Which one

wooden light
#

it didn't do that much damage when iused it

#

preon

crystal trench
#

Okay so

low fulcrum
#

direct hits

wooden light
#

It only did like a quater damage

crystal trench
#

Yeah

#

Don't use on golem

wooden light
#

i used it on beetle

crystal trench
#

Fire it right as you press E on the porter

#

Point it right where she spawns

wooden light
#

Ohhh

#

okay I'll try that

crystal trench
#

The goal is to have it shock her while she's spawning

#

So she gets no shield

#

Then hit the hill behind her

#

And have the aoe damage her

#

She should end with like 800-1100 hp after it

#

Best of luck, friend

bold falcon
#

wait you can do that

wooden light
#

oh wow

bold falcon
#

ive only been getting her to like 1.8k

fossil jackal
#

yeah

wooden light
#

that makes

#

so much more sense

bold falcon
#

i know about hitting her before shield but

fossil jackal
#

if you get it RIGHT as she's spawning in, she doesn't have shields

bold falcon
#

didnt know about hitting hill behind her

wooden light
#

I'm gonna try that now, that alone should push me into the top 500 lol

bold falcon
#

thsi is interesting lezgo

crystal trench
#

:)

#

Glad to help you guys

#

I'm gonna try to bring merc up to where Chad In Time is right now though

cosmic peak
crystal trench
#

God damn it man

#

Leave me alone

#

:'(

cosmic peak
#

still some visible mistakes

fossil jackal
#

uh might have found a huntress tele bug

#

if you jump and aim it slightly down you tele farther

cosmic peak
#

thats

#

cool

#

I wonder what's causing it

crystal trench
#

You probably slide forward a bit

#

From teleports momentum

fossil jackal
#

my guess, is that when you tele into an object it forces you forward

#

and if you're in the air you have some falling momentum

bold falcon
#

DUDE

#

@crystal trench

#

ur a legend

crystal trench
#

Dammmnn dude

#

Nice!

bold falcon
#

thats such a neat trick

crystal trench
#

Getting really really close to sub 2 min

#

Yeah

#

I'm glad to have shown it to you :O

bold falcon
#

lemme record a run ill show u a dope strat

crystal trench
wooden light
#

so close to sub 3 mins :pepehands:

crystal trench
#

That trick can come in handy outside of prismatic too

#

The AoE a bit more than half the size of the range of it shocking things lol

#

Which is a lot

#

I think it's the same range as Ukelele's shocking iirc

bold falcon
#

ive done 5 hour monsoon runs and didnt know about that

#

tysm

crystal trench
#

Loool

#

I can't go on that long

#

Maybe in RoR1

#

This one is so much harder though

drowsy jetty
#

ah, well, ror1 had command artifact

crystal trench
#

What makes you think I used command

#

?

drowsy jetty
#

hah

fossil jackal
#

man

#

i gotta get this golem fight with huntress down

crystal trench
#

This is just a matter of RoR1 having less need for me to move my mouse around haha

fossil jackal
#

it's the only thing I need to improve for now

crystal trench
#

I'm pretty bad at managing all the stuff in this game

fossil jackal
#

keep dying since i'm doing risky strats

#

god fuck this golem

#

there are so many adds that are just covering him

#

I can't shoot him when there's 4 fucking golems ontop of him

tribal bolt
crystal trench
#

Just lerft first tp at 1:34 holy shit

fossil jackal
#

are you FUCKING kidding me

#

the laser only triggers when you get out of range of him

#

and I was doing fine and a random golem shot me out of range and I died to laser

#

fucking hell

livid vine
#

looks like MULTI-T is still good

#

barely see any difference

tribal bolt
#

I'm impressed by these people with good times on commando

fossil jackal
#

i am actually going to get an anyeurism

#

this golem fight is so fucking RNG when you're doing the huntress strat

#

kms

split meadow
#

Wait what's the new trial?

#

Is it 2 stages like the last one or

crystal trench
#

Yeah

split meadow
#

I'll give it a shot

#

Is it Rainstorm?

crystal trench
#

Rainstorm

#

Titanic Plains into The Roost

fossil jackal
#

i legit shot the bfg too early

#

kms

#

the huntress strat is LITERALLY fucking rng

#

this is so infuriating

split meadow
#

I'll go with Huntress as it's my main

#

I'll report back

fossil jackal
#

are you fucking kidding me

#

this is actually so annoying

#

i hate golems so much

#

why do regular ones have lasers

#

FUCK

#

why is everything wisps and golems

ripe lantern
#

You can do it!

fossil jackal
#

i just did and then a wisp killed me after I activated beetle tele

crystal trench
#

Not sure if this helps any but the lasers are blockable by the big golems body

fossil jackal
crystal trench
#

It's the only way I can survive in that fight

fossil jackal
#

i know that

crystal trench
#

Also just went from 2:38.59 to 2:38.54 lol

fossil jackal
#

i would have just got 2:27 on huntress if I didn't die

#

didn't even get the correct proc with the bfg

waxen steppe
#

alright lads

#

we need

#

to fuckin

#

talk

#

what triggers the golem's laser attack

#

because it ends runs

glossy horizon
#

If ur too far

waxen steppe
#

is that the only one?

glossy horizon
#

He will shoop ur woop

#

If you hug him

#

He will never laser u

wooden light
crystal trench
#

You definitely can

wooden light
#

I'm happy with sub 3 mins

bold falcon
#

ive been trying to record a run for like 40 attempts now

wooden light
#

I'm bad

#

๐Ÿ˜ฆ

bold falcon
#

keep messing up ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

crystal trench
#

As am I

fossil jackal
#

fuck I messed lv 1

#

this is so annoying

crystal trench
#

Sub 3 is nice though dude, gratz

fossil jackal
#

sub 2:30 is happy for me

#

need to get it

wooden light
#

Thanks to your tips honestly

#

My very first run was like 5 minutes lmfao

#

Top 10% is like, top 500 right?

#

I'd like to know what to aim for when there's actually rewards for having a high rank

fossil jackal
#

motherfucking mobs

#

actually making me so angry right now

crystal trench
#

When there are rewards we'll know what 10% is preobably

wooden light
#

Well

#

going based off my friend who had a 15 min run

#

there's 15,763 people at least who've ran the trial

#

and 10% of that is 1576

#

so it's safe to say if you're above 1.5k you're top 10 percent.

#

unless i'm an idiot who can't do math, that's a real possibility

urban flower
crystal trench
#

Me irl

urban flower
#

Artificer > Mul-T don't @ me

tribal bolt
#

mmmmm

#

bet

crystal trench
#

Holy fuck

#

I just lost a 2:20 with merc

torpid jolt
#

@urban flower You rite tho

crystal trench
#

I'm cryin lmao

tribal bolt
#

L

wooden light
#

@urban flower can you upload a vid of your run? I'm really interested in seeing how the fuck someone can be that fast with art

urban flower
#

uh

#

does the game have replays?

tribal bolt
#

art could probably destroy the shards pretty fast

crystal trench
#

Honestly

#

I can probably do better on art than merc

#

One sec

#

I'mma try to play her

cosmic peak
#

lol @crystal trench

crystal trench
#

Chan shhhh

#

At least it's not mul-t

cosmic peak
#

I'm a boring guy

#

I'll just stick with mul-t

tribal bolt
#

mul-t is pretty easy to play and he's a buster

cosmic peak
#

cuz I found a strange mechanic using the explosion of the crystal

#

using the upper crystal by the Preon, if you time it right you can launch yourself to the tp with help of tank form

#

or whatever it is called

lime lintel
#

shopping cart mode ๐Ÿ˜„

tribal bolt
#

so you can basically just rocket jump over

cosmic peak
#

that's the term yeah

crystal trench
#

LMFAO

#

HOLY SHIT

wooden light
#

wait a sec

#

My run

crystal trench
#

Sin

wooden light
#

was 2:52

#

but

crystal trench
wooden light
#

it says it's 2:59 on leader boards

#

also HOLY SHIT LMFAO

crystal trench
#

First run with her <3

#

Also yeah

cosmic peak
#

Damn is it time to ditch Mul-T

crystal trench
#

You lose abt 7 seconds

#

Pretty sure I could go even faster with mul-t

tribal bolt
#

mul-t is still the way to go

cosmic peak
#

Not sure where I'm losing time tho

crystal trench
#

Mul-T and Commando

tribal bolt
crystal trench
#

Prolly the strongest

cosmic peak
#

Later, I'll try to record and upload my run

#

kinda busy atm

crystal trench
#

Okay

#

I'm going to the dark side for Multi soon

#

First gonna try to go for 2:30ish on huntress

cosmic peak
#

I can't believe there are still 150 people above 2:15

crystal trench
#

Nevermind huntress is still boring

#

Time to see how I do with Mul-T

waxen steppe
#

wait do you think the sub 2:20 runs are using this shopping cart glitch thing?

split meadow
#

Wait those are mins right

waxen steppe
#

yeah

#

lmao

split meadow
#

Dang dude hold up I gotta rethink about my life real quick

crystal trench
#

Nevermind Mul-T is still boring

#

Gonna optimize artificer

cosmic peak
#

If shopping card jump happens you're missing AP and booster juice

waxen steppe
#

uh

tribal bolt
#

I need my juice

bold falcon
#

quality is really bad atm but its a run

urban flower
#

uploading my 2:41 artificer

crystal trench
#

@bold falcon

#

Have you tried Tritip instead?

bold falcon
#

no but i highly doubt it ever beats speed

crystal trench
#

Does energy drink really save you that much dime

bold falcon
#

cause sprint speed works on the speed damage

crystal trench
#

Ohhh okay

bold falcon
#

the bash

crystal trench
#

I didn't know his damage was based on speedf

bold falcon
#

i missed the juicy timing on beetle

#

s osad

fossil jackal
#

2:41 huntress

#

missed the bfg hit

urban flower
#

you don't need the preon for beetle w/ art

wooden light
#

surely it helps tho, no?

urban flower
#

nope

wooden light
#

hmm

urban flower
#

you can get a similar shield cancel w/ art

wooden light
#

just with a charged MB2?

#

thats neat

crystal trench
#

Yeah

urban flower
#

R

wooden light
#

o

crystal trench
#

You can do with MB2 if you're timing it right as well

urban flower
#

yeah both work

wooden light
#

ill give that a shot now

urban flower
#

uploading a run now

#

I think I could shave off a few by not going for the health kit

#

but that requires a lot of luck to not die

fossil jackal
#

2:34 huntress

#

.>

crystal trench
#

Hey @urban flower

urban flower
#

ya?

crystal trench
#

Lmao

urban flower
#

nice

crystal trench
#

Healthkit isn't needed

urban flower
#

yeah you just gotta git gud

#

which I'm not

crystal trench
#

The only time you'll die is if you let golem use his laser

#

I would've had 2:25

#

But I messed up a few things

#

Gonna record what I think might be an ooptimal art run

urban flower
#

here's my unoptimal art run

crystal trench
#

Its ok I'm recording all the failed attempts too LOL

urban flower
#

yeah it's like 10 tries to get that one

#

I'm not the best player lol

#

I messed up a lot

crystal trench
#

It's ok

#

Nobody is

#

That's the beauty of the game being out for 5 dadys lol

urban flower
#

haha

#

anyways yeah artificer is a boss melting machine

thick gust
#

anyone able to get engi sub 3:19? I wanna bring the underdog to sub 3
I found that with the right timing you can boost yourself using the crystal explosion

crystal trench
#

Yeah if you look at my screenshots a few people have sub 3 minute engis

#

I can run him to sub 3 if you'd like to see

#

Pretty sure I can bring any character there rn

open wagon
#

I'm close to it myself

thick gust
#

Oh sweet, nice run
ya I'd love to see a run if you can

crystal trench
#

Will do

#

Gimme like 10 min

simple oracle
#

looks like art might be the better choice? soulrider was able to remove queens shield with his R like I have been doing with the Q

open wagon
#

Coal, do you run charge your shots when you're moving to the crystals?

#

I figured out that you can do that and it feels so smooth

urban flower
#

you can use R or M2 @simple oracle

thick gust
#

yeah that works great on the first crystal

urban flower
#

m2 is just harder to time/aim

#

Art is amazing at melting bosses in general

#

it's just a shame about y'know, the rest of the kit ๐Ÿ‘€

split meadow
urban flower
#

anyways I'm happy with my current art run on the board, I think I'll leave it

crystal trench
#

Done @thick gust

#

Uploading video now

#

It's really really really bad

#

Because I suck at engineer

#

But if you play him a lot, I'm sure you can use the universal things that I do to make your run a lot faster

open wagon
#

Thanks mate, I wanna see if it's anything like what I got going on. ๐Ÿ‘€

crystal trench
#

Np

#

Not sure if it's faster or not but for engi I'd recommend grabbing tritip instead of energy if you're grabbing those

#

Will make the golem kill a lot faster

#

Also launch yourself with the crystals more than I did lol

fossil jackal
#

how do you do this for commando

crystal trench
#

Quality sucks rn

#

Because still processing

#

And also I'm really, really, really bad at engineer

#

But it is very very possible to throw him to sub 3

split meadow
crystal trench
#

It is

#

Better than I can do with huntress too lol

#

Character is hell

split meadow
#

That's half the ranks

urban flower
#

my first runs were like 8m

#

so

split meadow
#

My first run was 12m or so

#

Because I was in looter mindset

#

Then realized I had to speedrun

#

My strat ain't the best tbh but it's functional

#

I can still avoid losing some time in certain bits

#

I'll give it another shot

winged dune
#

i keep fucking forgetting to switch off commando each time ree

#

i just spam the start button

fossil jackal
#

think I'm going to try this tomorrow

#

;_;

#

i'll be content with 2:40

#

er

#

2:34

split meadow
open wagon
#

Thanks

wheat venture
#

Pauldron is fun as heck tho

split meadow
#

Yes 'cause apparently the rocks' hitbox isn't as large as I expected so he shot through it

zenith plinth
#

@urban flower How did you instantly spawn second boss at half health?

#

Cheater

open wagon
#

lol XD

zenith plinth
#

Look at the timer

crystal trench
split meadow
#

Man don't you love when Huntress' R gets you through a roof so you can't aim

sly rune
#

i feel your pain

open wagon
crystal trench
#

damn dude, gratz!

wooden light
#

We should have our own Prismatic trials voice channel tbh

crystal trench
#

hard agree

wooden light
#

gonna mention that in feedback

zenith plinth
waxen steppe
#

So are the only abilities that can canel Beetle's shield: Art's m2 and r, and preon?

zenith plinth
#

Preon + boss ammo + speed

#

then save preon for boss on second stage

#

That's it

waxen steppe
#

@zenith plinth thats the winning strat rn

#

congrats btw!

zenith plinth
#

And i still did it faster than the guy that cheated

#

@urban flower bob

crystal trench
#

Nobody cheated lol

split meadow
#

1 Preon charge ye?

#

Might have to try that instead

zenith plinth
#

Yeah, only use it on second boss

wooden light
#

? how did they cheat

zenith plinth
#

Look at the screenshots i sent

#

second boss spawned with half health

#

SCRIPT KIDDEIS CAN frEEze the timeres

#

They already had their preon on cooldown

wooden light
#

r...

zenith plinth
#

and 1 shot everything

crystal trench
#

Ruubi, that's not a cheat

bold falcon
wooden light
#

that's not a cheat lol

bold falcon
#

why are huntress and commando dominating up here

crystal trench
#

Artificer can stop the shield w.o preon

waxen steppe
#

@bold falcon youre sick

bold falcon
#

ty

waxen steppe
#

chad it's gotta be for the globals

crystal trench
#

Probably that yeah

heady abyss
#

does anyone have a clue how the top 100 are getting 1:30 and under?

bold falcon
#

can huntress stop shield with r?

crystal trench
#

Actually

#

Probably, yeah

waxen steppe
#

wish I knew, its gotta be crazy

crystal trench
#

@heady abyss Not sure

bold falcon
#

gonna try to get 2 min with huntress dont know the strat tho

heady abyss
#

i have a friend ive been talking to who is 94 with 1:36.01 and i follow his route and method to a T and only get 2:30 at best

drowsy jetty
#

๐Ÿค”

crystal trench
#

What's he play ?

drowsy jetty
#

secret engi tech to go at the speed of sound confirmed

heady abyss
#

Mul-t and he got 1:46 with the back up method, but switched to preon route and lowered it by 10sec

crystal trench
#

?? wtf

open wagon
#

what is this secret engi tech

heady abyss
#

i feel like its fishy but idk, dont want to call it out

open wagon
#

tell me your secrets

split meadow
drowsy jetty
#

im joking i meant that the 1:36 guy used black magic on engi somehow

open wagon
#

oh

#

rip

ionic wadi
#

If the number next to your name on global ranking is that pinkish, does that mean you are in the top 10 %?

heady abyss
#

shield blocking is op as fuck, is it a bug or intended?

split meadow
#

Probably a game mechanic

crystal trench
#

More accurately it's an abuse of a game mechanic

split meadow
#

Ye that

crystal trench
#

Shields don't regenerate in combat, and they start regenerating on spawn for the overloaded elite

heady abyss
#

seems like you have to be damaging with aoe BEFORE it spawns which feels like an unintended exploit if im being honest

crystal trench
#

So we hit them as soon as it spawns, and we stop them from regenerating

heady abyss
#

but idc, still gonna use it

zenith plinth
split meadow
#

I got 2:55 with using the BFG on the 1st boss rather than 2nd

zenith plinth
#

So you're abusing a bug, to get higher on the leader boards

split meadow
zenith plinth
#

Isn't that what we call "Cheating"?

drowsy jetty
#

dont think it a bug

crystal trench
#

Again, it's not a bug lol

heady abyss
#

well everyone is technically, its the enemy shield bar

zenith plinth
#

It has to be within a few ms then

#

Because i've never pulled that off

crystal trench
#

It's not

#

Use your preon when you activate the 2nd teleporter

#

Look at beetles hp

heady abyss
#

it feels like its unintended is all im saying

crystal trench
#

The shocks will stop them from regenerating shield

#

Not everything has to be intended <3

solemn verge
#

Its not cheating if I hit it as soon as i see it ImBored

crystal trench
#

If this weren't here then the theorycrafting for this trial wouldn't be nearly as enjoyable

zenith plinth
#

preon on cooldown

crystal trench
#

Yeah

heady abyss
#

if its not intended and it gives you an advantage i would call it an exploit by definition

crystal trench
#

The flamethrower is hitting the hitbox

zenith plinth
#

Mob half health

heady abyss
#

not to say all exploits are bad

crystal trench
#

The flamethrower hits it, Ruubi

zenith plinth
#

Do not tell me this is intended

#

just because YOU abuse it

crystal trench
#

Nobody said it was intended

#

We've said dthe opposite LOL

zenith plinth
#

It's a bug

#

it's cheating

crystal trench
#

That's not what a bug is

split meadow
#

tbh Why we arguing when nobody gets rewards anyway yet?

heady abyss
#

bugs are definitely not cheating

thick gust
#

@crystal trench I was afk but just got back and saw your vid, thanks man and sweet run! I'll be working on sub 3 now

crystal trench
#

No problem dude

#

Not a sweet run though haha

#

You can do much better since you seem to know engineer more than me

zenith plinth
#

So using ocular hud on mul-t isn't cheating?

#

Aight

heady abyss
#

its patched

zenith plinth
#

Am i wrong here?

open wagon
#

Coal you can for sure get that sub 3

#

I'm trying to get sub 2:30 with engi rn

heady abyss
#

so i see youve never been a part of a speedrun community then lmao

open wagon
#

And you are Ruubi, there's no outside exploit going on, these are mechanics in the game

#

Not even complicated ones either

zenith plinth
#

Why would i? sounds like a bunch of actual brainlets

open wagon
#

You can do the same thing with Engi

zenith plinth
#

Abusing "GAME MECHANICS" to get their advantage

#

On leaderboards

drowsy jetty
#

yike

heady abyss
#

it feels wrong that you should have to INTENTIONALLY avoid damaging the boss before its shields pop up to avoid an unintended bug

crystal trench
#

Okay so Ruubi

heady abyss
#

if i accidentally abuse it should i die on purpose because i cheater?

open wagon
#

I don't think it's a bug, it's just stopping it's shields from coming up

crystal trench
#

In what way am I acting dishonestly or unfairly

#

By hitting something to stop its shields from regenerating

#

Please explain

zenith plinth
#

Litterally skipping half their health

crystal trench
#

Okay, but I'm not

#

I'm stopping their shields from regenerating

heady abyss
#

the difference between an exploit and a cheat is that an exploit is fair because anyone can do it

solemn verge
#

spacedog Shields arent health

bold falcon
#

imagine speedrunning games without exploits

zenith plinth
#

It's like punching someone in the boxing ring before you're supposed to

bold falcon
zenith plinth
#

it's cheating

crystal trench
#

Zzzzzzzzzz

#

Not worth it

bold falcon
#

zzzzzzzzzzzzz

crystal trench
#

Ignore him friends

bold falcon
#

huge ๐Ÿ’ค

heady abyss

But it's not, it's like the bell rings in a boxing ring and the other person doesn't have the guard up in time

heady abyss
#

i mean your pfp gives you away ruubi

zenith plinth
#

Actual retards, do you have problems evolving?

open wagon

o no he's salt

No need to be an ass

Nobody has been rude to you and you're just calling us retards

Jeez dude

Just block the lad and get back to the talken

@crystal trench I dare you to go show your parents your pfp

#

Pedophile

crystal trench
#

I'm cosplaying as the character in my pfp next month

#

My parents helped me make my costume

#

I'm not sure they'd care

zenith plinth
#

Because you're a lost cause

crystal trench
#

My parents are very supportive of my hobbies and interests :)

small solar
#

how is this guy the first thing i see coming into the chat LMFAO

heady abyss
#

off topic

#

ignore the troll

thick gust
#

deff a troll
and if the enemies can do ridiculous things to us sometimes I think its more than fair game we can too

zenith plinth
crystal trench
#

I'm not sure how people get ~2:12 with merc

#

Has anyone here gotten faster than 2:35 with it

heady abyss
#

what is the best method for shield blocking on mult?

crystal trench
#

Preon

open wagon
#

I just got 2:38 with engi

wooden light
#

jesus what the fuck is wrong with this dude lmfao

crystal trench
#

Dude

#

Nice Jamie

open wagon
#

Yeah, I just realized

thick gust
#

Awesome Jamie

wooden light
#

why is he getting so ass blasted over speed runs that have no meaning yet

open wagon
#

I can put down my mines as I'm falling down to the second boss

wooden light
#

relax

open wagon
#

before I pop the crystals

heady abyss
#

start preon as you hit the tp?

split meadow
open wagon
#

I have three huntress right above me

thick gust
#

do you put bombs on the crystal or stack them on the boss spawn?

crystal trench
#

Yes @heady abyss

split meadow
#

Most of my lost seconds are the lock aiming at the wrong target

crystal trench
#

Aim it at the hill behind the beetle

#

If it misses beetle it'll hit that hill and still damage her :)

heady abyss
#

and the aoe lightning blocks the shield, got it

#

thanks

crystal trench
#

Yep

heady abyss
#

huge

open wagon
#

I put the bombs on the boss spawn

bold falcon
#

how do you guys do huntress second level

split meadow
#

Uhhh

bold falcon
#

i do first in 1:10 and then slow down hella hard

crystal trench
#

How dod you do first in 1:10

#

??

split meadow
#

Tunnel next to spawn, R the first Crystal, kill the other 2, R the boss before it spawns then it goes from there

bold falcon
#

yeah i do that too

#

hmm

split meadow
#

That's how I do it

bold falcon
#

i just get 2:35 ever ytime

#

but i see huntress at 2:00

split meadow
#

I got 2:47 so nb

bold falcon
#

did u do w preon or back up

split meadow
#

I use Preon on the 1st Boss that's it

bold falcon
#

i just use double back up

#

its faster

#

try it

open wagon
#

There's a lot of things you have to keep in mind with Engi @thick gust that can be ruining your times--your landmines can jump off of the boss and into your shield and do no damage to the boss, I hold back on putting down the shield right away cause it don't matter too much.
You also have to put your turrets as close as possible to where the boss is, that way they don't aggro off, but, you can't be on the boss's spawn location otherwise it'll spawn a different boss.

split meadow
#

Where's Back Up?

#

Also I should get Cell first ye?

bold falcon
#

yea

split meadow
#

Do you use both Backups on 1st or half

bold falcon
#

yeah i use both but i dont know the best breakup

split meadow
#

'Aight gonna find that Backup

bold falcon
#

its right next to portal

#

other side of the rock where boss spawns

open wagon
#

YO

thick gust
#

Thanks for the help @open wagon I didn't know about the turret agro, I'll try putting them closer. Also do you grab items on the way to the first boss? I've just been grabbin AP

#

plus preon ofc

open wagon
#

I grab, the boss bullets, preon, and then I get the tri tip dagger

bold falcon
#

skip the cell

#

its a trap

open wagon
#

BUT YO

thick gust
#

new time??

open wagon
#

YOUR LANDMINE WILL STOP THE SHIELDS

thick gust
#

ohhh snap

open wagon
#

I messed up my run and I still got 2:37

#

2:35*

thick gust
#

so mine to stop shields then preon?

open wagon
#

Yeah,

thick gust
#

will that insta kill then?

open wagon
#

Just about actually

bold falcon
#

@split meadow

open wagon
#

Put the landmine as you drop down

#

and then do the two crystals

thick gust
#

dang dude, good find

open wagon
#

Yeah, no, this is rad

split meadow
#

@bold falcon ?

simple oracle
#

anyone here got less then 2mins ?

open wagon
#

Also, and for everyone, if you get a golem to spawn, try to ride it's blast and not dodge it

#

Y'know, just a few extra seconds

bold falcon
#

skip the cell

zenith plinth
#

whos #1 on the global atm?

split meadow
#

Oh skip it?

bold falcon
#

2.00.95 is my best at narque

#

yea

#

u do it faster skipping

#

just tested

#

unless u do 1-1 split which im not sure is fatser

#

still working it out

zenith plinth
#

whos #1 on the global atm?
and whats the time?

open wagon
#

@thick gust also, a heads up, try to not spawn your turrets too fast on the first boss. They may not even attack the boss if you do that

bold falcon
#

yeah i cant beat 2:35 idk what im missing

waxen steppe
#

I don't think sub 2:00 is possible with engi

split meadow
#

Backup was slower for me

#

'Cause Drones attack whole different enemies

waxen steppe
#

on which champ?

#

sorry

#

cause drones is usually faster

thick gust
#

@open wagon I think I got the bosses down, now its just getting good clears on the crystals and luck with mob spawns
just got 2:57 but my friend wants to play some multi now, I'll get back to it later and hopefully return with a 240
good luck to you man

split meadow
#

Nope

#

Slower

#

Huntress btw

zenith plinth
#

whos #1 on the global atm?
and whats the time?

crystal trench
#

We don't know

split meadow
thick gust
open wagon
#

OOO

#

Nice

#

I'm really close to the 2:30

crystal trench
#

Oh hey a bit faster and you'll see me

#

:O

open wagon
#

Yeah!

#

I think I can do it, but I'm glad to have hit the top 200!

#

I have yet to see another engi though. :')

crystal trench
#

Yeah

open wagon
#

(other than Coal)

crystal trench
#

That's how it was when I was climbing with Merc

#

But apparently there are a couple with 2:12 times

#

Which I wanna figure out how

open wagon
#

Yeah, that's wild

#

I think it's getting good boost jumps off the crystals

#

that helps

crystal trench
#

You can't with merc

#

Mercs attacks give him super armor afaik

#

Can't boost with crystals

split meadow
open wagon
#

Couldn't you dash through the crystal as it explodes?

weak river
#

love how all i see it mul-t

crystal trench
#

Yeah but positioning for that can lose you a couple seconds more than it gains

open wagon
#

That's fair

crystal trench
#

And the points where it won't it's better to whirlwind off of the ground

split meadow
#

Might as well be a Mul-t only Trial OMEGALMFAO

crystal trench
#

That's all trials :(

split meadow
#

I cry

bold falcon
#

i want to say its a mul-t only trial

#

but what the heck is this

#

why are there so many not multis

crystal trench
#

I guess it's time for me to go back to grinding

split meadow
#

Rockets w/ Cell?

#

Nah.

#

No way

bold falcon
#

rockets?

#

there are rockets on the map?

split meadow
#

I saw 'em I believe

open wagon
#

Man, how are you getting a 2:00???

split meadow
#

Don't remember where

open wagon
#

x_ x

bold falcon
#

time to explore

split meadow
#

I might be wrong and they could be on the 2nd

#

Not entirely sure

#

I was doing a looting run because I forgot I had to speedrun and I think I saw 'em somewhere

modest tundra
split meadow
#

Ok no

#

Nevermind

#

It's the Shrine uptop

#

When the price reaches 61$

bold falcon
#

o boy thats a lot of moolah

split meadow
#

It is

#

Granted you also need to buy the Cell and maybe extra stuff

manic lotus
#

so what's the top strat for the current trial then

split meadow
#

Uhhh

#

Mul-t it seems

#

Who'd a thunk it

simple sentinel
#

well, I'm not getting better than 2:24 tonight

#

thanks for all the tips guys

bold falcon
#

beat my record by .3 sec

#

๐Ÿ˜ 

cosmic peak
#

Finally sub 2:30

crystal trench
#

Gratz

cosmic peak
#

I didn't realize there's a crystal in the tunnel and went for the one way further

#

in the second map

#

that's where it ate time

bold falcon
#

i literally just want to beat this last Mul-t on my leaderboard page

open wagon
#

yo, same chan

bold falcon
#

but theres no way i can figure out how to shave half a sec

cosmic peak
#

crit the top crystal

#

I guess

fallow breach
#

I was so hype with a huntress sub 4 min using the bfg with 2 charges, but i see that I have been wrong this whole time

bold falcon
#

NOO I TROLLED I HAD A SUB 2

#

cause of panic

#

fml i missed the shield timing

modest tundra
#

sub 2:20 artificer with a lucky crit R on the first boss

bold falcon
#

GOT IT

fallow breach
#

what is the general item build rn?

modest tundra
#

1:52 so far under PogChamp

#

for art i'm using armor pen, preon, and energy drink

fallow breach
#

okay I think I just need to clean up my run then

#

and toss a bunch of my extra shit

cosmic peak
#

How in the world are ppl lower than 1:45?

#

is that mod things?

zenith plinth
#

cheats

cosmic peak
#

that's nuts

zenith plinth
#

yehr its a problem

bold falcon
#

i actually dont imagine ever getting better than 1:52

cosmic peak
#

I feel good enough with my rank atm

modest tundra
#

yeah, i feel like if i'm getting any faster it'll be because i got a crit or something

bold falcon
#

welp

#

i just learned

#

u can stop shield with mul-t right click

cosmic peak
#

that's crazy

modest tundra
#

what were you stopping it with before?

bold falcon
#

preon

cosmic peak
#

so right click then preon would deal more?

#

insane timing tho

bold falcon
#

no, but now i can hope for rng 1 shot on titan

#

with crit chance

#

and then kill bug normally

open wagon
#

Ah damn

#

That sounds wack

strange field
#

whats the cutoff for top 10%

open wagon
#

I'm 2:31, and my number is pink. I think it might be around 3:00

strange field
#

oh

#

pink number is top 10%

open wagon
#

I really climbed through it so Ican't remember when it turned pink

strange field
#

ahh k, i was just wondering what it looked like to know

#

im 257

open wagon
#

Nice.
Bleh, I really gotta do something to get sub 2:30

runic forge
#

are prismatic trials just the first level?

strange field
#

first two

#

i honestly dont care too much past getting 10% honestly

#

hopefully the rewards are neat

open wagon
#

Well, I like being top 200! Because it's actually top 100, because I'm not too confident about some folks not doin fishy stuff. >_>

#

But it's tough with Engi

strange field
#

yah

#

but i mean

#

it is what it is

open wagon
#

Yeah.
Honestly I'm just doing my current runs pretty sloppy, I stepped back to eat.

#

Who you doing the runs with Crash?

bold falcon
#

damn i got a 1:53 hitting titan no crit

#

i believe

thick gust
#

hey Jamie do you know if you can boost off the first crystals, on both rounds?

modest tundra
#

damn, chad

cosmic peak
#

pink number is top 10%?

bold falcon
#

yes

nimble harbor
fallow breach
#

das alot of people doing it then

paper swallow
#

What class do people use for this?

fallow breach
#

use what your heart desires

modest tundra
#

MUL-T mostly but you can get good times with anyone

#

i got top 200 as artificer, follow your dreams

open wagon
#

I can boost off of both of the first crystals

#

I only focus on boosting off of the first one however

paper swallow
#

I'm in top 1,000 as Mul-T

#

722

crystal trench
#

Top 180 with merc

#

<3

#

At least was a few hours ago, probably dropped now

modest tundra
#

when i logged off i was 169, which is pretty nice

nimble harbor
#

nice

open wagon
#

Eghhhhhhhhh

#

Why does it keep you for ten minutes after killing the boss

granite yew
#

what is prismatic trials?

#

haven't tried it yet

open wagon
#

I'm sitting here at 2:24, already beat the second boss and hit the tele, and it just takes forever to bring me out

#

Prismatic Trials are like a speed run of the game, it's always the same items and such

#

YOu destroy three crystals, and the boss, as fast as you can

meager ravine
#

Yeah I feel like you have to restart your game occasionally to speed things up

#

I was getting consistent 2:29s then I restarted the game on a whim and shaved 6 whole seconds off my time

acoustic shoal
#

How the heck do you guys even do these trials so quickly, I can barely even complete it

simple oracle
#

if you scroll up some videos of 2.40 times have been posted

acoustic shoal
#

k ill check that out

woven mica
#

how the hell do you guys do this so fast lmfao

meager ravine
#

Mainly just lots of practice and discussing pathing with friends

#

Even without damage boost strats you can still get around 2:40-50

#

The big secret is to skip the beetle queen's shielsd

uneven solstice
#

@meager ravine yo, I didn't know you could hit em before they had a shield, that's cool

meager ravine
#

Yeah it's rarely relevant in normal cases since you don't know where/when they'll show up, but here, it's amazing. Also not sure if it's intentional ๐Ÿ˜›

slim lintel
#

got 1:57.83 as arti :D

meager ravine
#

Damn and here I was thinking I might have been the best ๐Ÿ˜›

#

What do you do different?

zealous spindle
#

what the heck is a prismatic trial?

meager ravine
#

If you don't mind sharing

#

It's a seeded run that you try and complete as quick as possible.

#

Seeded meaning, it will be the same for everyone, every time.

#

All enemy spawns will be the same, as well as items and tele rewards

zealous spindle
#

oh shoot, I see. Forgot that existed on the menu lol

#

thought it was some rare portal for a sec

meager ravine
#

It's pretty fun to try and shave down your own times as different characters

zealous spindle
#

I'd imagine

slim lintel
#

That smaller stone golem that spawn around the boss, stand in front of him so preon hits him as it travels to boss, make sure he dies before you tele to hit level 3, gives you a massive dps boost for the queen

meager ravine
#

I didn't even think of leveling up for the DPS boost, good call!

slim lintel
#

Yeah, I was trying to figure out why sometimes the queen was dying way easier than others then I noticed sometimes I was level 3 and others I was just below it

latent stag
#

Damn I suck lol

rocky obsidian
#

Can anyone elaborate on when the run finishes? Never finished a trial so

glossy horizon
#

2 stages

subtle fjord
#

How do you skip the Beetle shield?

glossy horizon
#

shoot your preon as soon as you press the tele

#

towards the wall

#

if you do it right then the beetle will appear with like 800 hp

subtle fjord
#

Ty

#

Do you also know how @meager ravine gets crazy velocity of killing the time crystals?

glossy horizon
#

I just kinda sprint in the direction just before it explodes

#

and jump

subtle fjord
#

Towards of away from it?

glossy horizon
#

away

#

towards the direction u wanna go

subtle fjord
#

Ok thanks again!

tidal token
#

I wonder what those sub 2 min huntress runs look like

#

anyone have a recording or some tips?

#

I've been using drones and swapping to preon for beetle, but even with the lower cooldown it's a bit too long at this pace

#

might have to drop one of the two, I'll see which one works best without the gun

#

probably beetle

vast timber
#

I have a 1:44 if anyones interested

#

Although the route is dead kinda now

#

With new mult nerf

tidal token
#

rest in peace

mental badger
#

whats the best strat?

vast timber
#

on this patch idk

modern ember
#

prob a arti or huntress strat

mental badger
#

been getting preon and curse of the drowned on huntress : P only around 3:20

vast timber
#

mult can prob still pull sub 2 pretty easily

mental badger
#

how would I go about it with the mul-t to get sub 2 min lol

vast timber
#

sec i have the video

#

mind the kanye

#

but like i said, with base dmg nerf crystals are 4 shot now

#

and obv multi slower

#

if u shoot at overloaded enemies as they spawn they can start with 3/4 or half hp

mental badger
#

damn

#

Ill prob mess up those crystal jumps

vast timber
#

timing can be kinda wonky

scarlet fjord
#

oh woops my bad

mental badger
#

cannot for the life of me do those jumps lol

vast timber
#

You could honestly just settle for collating them both till they die and run to the next one

#

main thing is praying the boss starts with half

mental badger
#

so its only sometimes the boss wil start with less if u shoot at them while theyre emerging>

vast timber
#

they will always start with less if u shoot at them before hand

#

it just seems rng whether its half or 3/4 of their hp left

tidal token
#

a number 6 with extra dip

wet plinth
#

how do you even get 2:40?

#

like whats your path?

honest cape
#

you can get sub 2 with huntress or nah?

wet plinth
#

strat?

tidal token
#

uuh

#

so

#

spawn

wet plinth
#

alright

#

got it

tidal token
#

r one of the far away gems

#

shoot the one in front of you

#

go left, possibly with the explosion pushback

vast timber
#

Keep in mind u can shoot 2 at the same time

wet plinth
#

do you get the item chest?

#

with the preon item?

tidal token
#

i just rush drones

wet plinth
#

healing and gunner? or just gunner

tidal token
#

I mean

#

backup

#

the thing that spawns drones

vast timber
#

Shoot 2nd boss as it spawns and it starts with less hp

tidal token
#

for huntress

#

you need to r

#

since it isn't targetable otherwise

honest cape
#

yea must R

tidal token
#

so keep it off cooldown

vast timber
#

Oh talking about huntress

#

Mb

honest cape
#

u can prob R once at start of stage 2 and its up by time of boss

vast timber
#

What rank would top 10% be prob?

tidal token
#

I wonder

honest cape
#

are shrine of chance items fixed?

tidal token
#

you can def r the crystal in the cavern

#

and just rush forward

honest cape
#

yep

tidal token
#

unless there's some really good jump you can get from the explosion

#

wouldn't know though, haven't tried

#

that's probably the next thing I should work on

#

still no clue how to sub 2

vast timber
#

Feel like huntress maybe cant

tidal token
#

I mean
