any tips for dealing with second boss? His adds usually end up killing me or i can't kill him before he starts pulling me towards him
i tried and i couldn't beat the first boss under 1:30 but i don't pla her so it could be better
@zenith plinth you want to take his shield down while he's spawning
idk if you're doing that
I am shooting him as soon as i can
with who?
mult
use grenade
yeah then use preon while still shooting your machine gun
you don't need crit to get a good time
but if you want to go for wr or something then go for crit
any merc reference :?
just joe afaik but he's not going to be active this trial
did he upload a video tho
Don't think so
f
@wooden light knows the route for merc but it relies to much on rng
yep
It's more joe's route, his sub 2:30 route is better than my 3:14
I can't get his route to work because I've tried 30+ times and never got a crit on preon.
We both advise any merc players to just play someone else for this trial if you want a better time than that lol
the only way merc can get a decent is time is if merc one shots dunestrider
have you tried portal?
ye, it's still dunestrider
yeah
the timing isn't much different
It could be sub 3 mins if I optimized the route, but it isnt better than joes.
if you get away from his suck you can go right back in
new trial is tomorrow right?
Just got that easy 4:26
im assuming you're wc?
oh really? I thought it had another day
im est
ill check rnb
rn*
ive got an hour before work ill try for the crit again lol
it's 7pm for you
ah rip ill be working
I did but second boss was harder, two ults is just ez
With Mul-t?
tho arti is actually pretty speedy for this one
so i just gave the trial a go for the first time and im kinda amazed as to how you can do 2:30
I was at like 5 mins on the imp overlord and died ๐
imp isn't the usual boss
yeah he spawned next to the mag right?
thats how it was for my first few runs
I've been through the 7 stages of grief in this trial
got a second off
2:19.61
lol i want better time but this trial is tearing my soul apart
woohoo next seed in 4 hours
I cant wait for more preon crit farming
we all know they put the preon in the lvls so it can be fast
but i want a different ult
how do prismatic trials work? I thought they were the same each time, but one run I failed I got a dunestrider and the next one was an imp
it would be nice if they made it so you had to fight the whole boss
for at least some of the seed
if you push teleporter before a certain time it will be a certain boss
oh i see
for the first teleporter, if you hit it before 34 seconds or so you will get hermit crab army
if you hit it after you get titan
I just wanted to get the achievement so it took me like 15 minutes to finish
thanks dj
on the second teleporter, you can get a titan or a dunestrider
or an imp too i guess
i think i got wisps once
titan might be if you go through the bazaar portal, i did a few runs at first using that before i started using the meta run
and i got titan once in a while
ive never seen a non dunestrider second stage
but it will spawn in the wrong place based on your location is my understanding
thats fucked me a few times TT.TT
i got a titan once, i prefired the preon and was confused when nothing spawned in the right spot lol
but it was definitely a titan and not a dunestrider
yeah i havent been able to replicate it
i think I remember people thinking it was like hitting the teleporter sub 1:55 or something
could be
it is in one of my vods, idk which one and i dont feel like looking through 6-8 hours of footage to find it
yeah im waiting like 3 hours or whatever for the next seed before i start prismatic trials again
i played so much to try and beat my time and i got a second off, so I stopped and am happy for what i did
lol
Bazar portal is just waste of time right
no
it might be faster if you dont mind going for the 1/100 crit instead of the 11/100 or whatever
Do you currently gain anything from prismatic trials?
@verbal axle No no no no, unless you're in the beginning of a run with no items and no lunar coins
a feeling of hopelessness is what i gained
ROFL
i just have more fun doing prismatic trials solo than actually playing the game solo
although i have even more fun getting the bois on to play the game coop
my friends are busy with school so they dont get on very often, once a week at best
but i just don't want to play borderlands for the 10th time
we could all be friends :D
im doing a borderlands 2 run too lol
nah jk some of y'all play arti and i'm not trying to get with that
lmao
I only talk in this chat but i like lurking in content creation because I draw
other chat have been toxic tht i've seen
this chat is toxic too
ive been on the grind to be less toxic
y'all suck
anyways if anyone wants to add me on steam
i wanted to add people who do the trials
some of my friends say the N word without a pass and I'm not down with that
to compare times etc
lmao
i dont have snapchat
crab rave
๐ฆ WR pace is gone ๐ฆ
๐ฆ Mr. Jumpy is Jumping ๐ฆ
yeah but its harder to time the jump and slower
^
lmao
"skill"
๐ฆ mult and skill in same sentence ๐ฆ
have you guys seen the guides on steam?
Steam guides: 99% garbage 1% actually useful info
i saw a guide on how to "beat prismatic trials with engi fast" and it kinda hurt to read so i haven't really read any after that
lol i thought they were gonnna be bad
@cyan stratus what if i havent unlocked arti yet?
@marsh tapir mult
it's funny how people play the game for an hour and write a tutorial on a character
i just wait for you nerds to comb over all the guides and ask you
best way to learn is to play
we don't need guides
and only character worth playing is mult
you mean the only character you're good at
i want engi to be good
at least i'm good at a character
i like merc alot
he was my first character i liked
lol you just triggered people
see fresh upload for "best path on X character prismatic trials #X"
follow guide and get a better time than the video
he's not that bad

most of the characters dont suck, you can get very good times on all characters
some just kill really fast or move really fast
or both
idk
merc, huntress, and engie are super dependant on map layout
since seeds are really random they can just get dicked by bad crystal placement
mult and arti are good at clapping crystals and bosses, along with being very mobile
very mobile
they will always have good times
arti is only as mobile as crystal placement allows
true
how does the arti jump really far?
havent unlocked so idk how the character works
crystal explosions give strong knockback
arties can pop them up close to knock them towards items or other crystals
it was core to do that on the last trial, and there were two crystals you used for it
can other characters use the knockback too?
yeah, and usually better
everyone can but merc
merc cant
rip
i was about to say if merc could do that he would be alot more viable
but arti is the lightest character so he goes farther than everyone else
the only real time advantage artie can have is in boss killing, but the issue with that is that other characters get to the portal to start it faster
oh really? didn't realize that
but yeah, this prismatic trial has two crystals you can use to momentum boost in the hell level but absolutely none in the ice level
go through the portal
and unfortunately the ice level has a preon up high and the portal far away
yeah ik
it doesn't have any good ones to use either
you can boost off the crystal below the mountain
you drop down from preon and use that crystal to boost
i'm #3 ;-;
is that really better timing then moving on from preon straightaway?
2:19
maybe i'm visualizing it poorly
hows people doing on this trial?
^^
garbage preon crit grind
i did a few runs and got like 3:15 when it came out and cba with it :p
boring zzzzzzzz
2:30 is avg i think
any videos on a decent time?
i have a 2:16 but someone uploaded a 2:14
theres a mult 2:13
do you get more horizontal knockback from jumping before popping a crystal or from staying on ground to make the angle as close to horizontal as possible
well i watched a 2:14 and uploaded a 2:22 lmao
and it's 1/100 preon crit so it's not a viable route
what is the fastest mult that has been uploaded?
2:15 is arti record afaik
2:14
link please
dont have
ill find it when im out of this M+ in wow
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=6&v=0Kv53rkxGsk @zenith plinth
The start is really sloppy, but doesn't really matter because I have to wait until about 34.6 sec so I get the Titan boss and not hermit crabs. First boss we...
Thanks
lol i lost a stage 2 double crystal crit run to golem boosting me off the ramp
it happens
rip
ty mr dj
โค
i beleeb in you
new seed in 2 hrs im waiting for that
Rug:
The Cooler Rug:
wait a new seed already?? feels like yesterday this trial came out
i might it's just art class
maybe cuz i havent played lmao
lol
when you still need to grind deicide but prismatic trials exist
what school?

Villanova
Not gonna lie, it sounds like prismatic trials are ruining some careers
Including mine, probably going to skip class aswell
yeah i slept through it at 1:30- since I went to bed too damn late
ah well
its just game dev
I'm an artist so it never will ruin my career
Damn, that's pretty good
I mean, I haven't painted in like 5 years, but it's a lot of hassle for a whole lot of nothing if you ask me
But then again, I'm artisticly retarded
where can you check?
survivors in logbook
yeah if i make one wrong step i restart
Jesus, a thousand? I'm at about 500 with arti and MUL-T combined
let me take al ook and cry
yeah i do the same thing zunts
its like, if i dont crit my preon i leave immediately
if i don't sprint right away i leave
and not to mention i crit a crystal 60% of the time
i feel worse about myself now
im back! how have my engie's been
i get easily frustrated and just take a break though
i dont stick to it for like more than 2 hours at a time
whats your time now Laxxia?
i still dont understand what's wrong with all of us
there's no incentive to try to get a really good time
there's no rewards, and you cant see your real place because of hackers
so when it matters and we get rewards we can get them ez
or maybe we're just a bunch of speedrunning degenerates :^)
this is the first time i have ever speedran anything
aha get fucked other rug
nice
yeah i only speedran mario odessy and that shit was hard for me
yeah i've done a couple speedruns but no real good times
i like this because you have to discover new tech each trial
if you pick up any game there's tons of tech that's already been discovered that you have to learn
yeah
not really much tech to learn
and what there is in this game is really ez to learn
well, there is in terms of crystal jumping, snipe anim sprint cancelling, best ways to kill a boss, etc
but not much
arti has a lot of tech you can do
When people get different boss spawns, is that purely due to taking too long or is there some other randomization factor at play
but it isnt hard to learn
we know that what boss you get depends on the timer and where your fps is locked at
but it's hard to master imo
we dont know why, or exactly what matters
but if you cap it at 60fps and activate portal at 33.6 you get titan ~75% of the time
would you say timer matters more than fps count?
both matter
if you cap your fps at 60 you get launched farther with arti so we think
without fps cap i have to do at 34.6
yeah i also forgot
oouo i just crit with preon
11/100?
that's fast
2:24 on the leaderboards tho:/
i can push top 300
your rank doesn't matter
yeah its an okay time
rank is meaningless
we need a verified leaderboard or something
^^^^^
i'm 302 rank now
we should have people submit proof for good times
fucking cheaters piss me off
i beat Joe
i really wish they would change prismatic trial teleports to be instant, or at least for the trial ending activation to be instant
totally not because hes on holiday
@true stratus yeah i still feel like loading times from pcs matter
kinda like how we just teleport in instead of drop pod in at the beginning
i feel like timer should at least pause
when u strafe backwards charing nova bomb and a bug crawls in front of you from behind and intercepts it instead of hitting the boss
i feel like our time should be timed survived, since we can't die after that

makes 0 sense
and then you crit the bug :^)
i lost a (i think) 2:14ish pace run to that
imp teleported infront of my preon
and crit
first stage doesnt really matter for touching tp as you get hermit crabs under 34ish seconds
im guessing anyways
only thing that matters in first stage is ttk for the titan
yea first stage i usually dont really pay attention
miss like 2 snipes but still w/e
and making sure you are standing on the tele when you finish him
ehh i still cant really figure that timing out
if my first stage time isnt under 1:03 i would reset lol
but if i activate at 1:00 i'm happy
i usually use my 2nd and 3rd skill simultaneously
bomb and charge?
yeah that's my strat
if you jump in the air you can bump further away towards tele
start right of the pillar, loop around, loop again to same spot, charge btwn titan and pillar, nice bounce
but you have to drag him to the right spot
and then if it uses rocket fist thing it's perfect because kb towards tele
i can complete first level in under 1:01 if i do everything perfectly but its really hard
you mean activate tele at 1:01?
yeah
i found a very consistent strategy for 1:00
i usually activate tele after right around 1:02
pb is 0:58 but that's with missile drone route so doesn't count
why doesnt that count?
you arent level 4 for next level
you need the money for xp for lv4 to 2shot
ah fairs
so you wont 2tap crystals
i've toyed with the idea of 3shot crystal route and i think it's possible
just making sure, mul-ts go through teleporter but artificers use blue portal for better crystal/preon placement right
pretty much right @true stratus
did new trial come out/
no
1.5 hr
im excitecx
this last one got me into trials
yesterday i went 2.5 hours before i got my first preon crit
the run was garbage and only got 2:22 leaderboard
but i was to tilted to keep trying
oh i guess it changes at 5pm pst
need to call it mul t trials at this point ๐
:p
arti is still higher than most mult's
i got 2:24 on leaderboards tho :/
do you have a arti run video? i did last trial as arti
i have a video of the path
i mean the highest is still mul t anw >_>
You want to try to be lvl 4 before you go through the portal so kill both imps while fighting the stone golem or kill one imp after you click the portal. you...
it's just to show the path
someone asked me to do it
i dont like how sprint sens is so different to non sprint sens
is there a way to turn that off?
sprint sense never heard of it
so whats the tier list for speed, for chars, in general?
i assume engi last?
rest are doo doo
huntress is so fast
commando is the best because the best times use commando ๐
have you killed a boss less that 30 sec?
probably
her ttk is really slow
I have missed lots of crystals cause the sprint sensitivity throws off my aim :(
F
lmao
whats the easiest strat rn, just want ti done to unlock the item
What is the point of the blue portal in the first section of the map?
Go in/Go out?
@willow meteor Easiest is to just go for the preon on stage 2. If you want a good time look at one of the videos further up for reference
welp ima surf/bhop on csgo and wait till next trial
add RecycledRug on steam
if you want
all for comparing times :)
lol i suck at csgo in general
Honestly, I wish I didn't know csgo as much as I do. It's more competitive than fun tbh
I REALLY like playing CS:GO and I'm very good when playing at my rank, which is like silver 4, but I'm not good at the game, I don't even know smokes for any map
i had a really really good time on surf_utoptia
top 200 on the server
out of like 20k
not too bad
lol who plays csgo casually anyways
i play competative casually
i use wargames for warmups and only really play comp with friends
as like a end of the night last thing before I go to bed ill play a game or two with a friend
surf is a fun brain dead hanging out in a discord chat kinda thing, like running around stormwind in WoW but it feels more productive
wait you run around? I stand in the ah looking at peoples tmogs :p
waiting on classic to release
Ironman btw?
the game is in such shambles right now, but I really want this jaina mount
XD
i stopped raiding with the guild in hfc, played casual since, like mount farming
back to back ashes of alar on 2 diff accs
in 20mins
this raid is actually v fun, but everything else like M+ and AP farming is such a chore I only really log on 3 times a week, twice for raid and one more for my weekly +10 chest
lmao i stopped ap farming as soon as i got dark iron dwarfs
my guild had a neck minimum requirement deadline last week
so I had to play a bit more than I liked
it was ๐คข
were you a mythic raiding guild?
i did mythic immerseus in MoP on my mums acc and did 3 bosses on mythic in hfc
ohh yeah
I also played fire mage
now I play chilly mage to show time has passed and the game's flame has died out TT.TT
my mum cant stand frost mage XD
finds it boring
i dont see what she sees in the game atm
yeah, its holding me hostage with false promises
XD
frost mage rn is wayy better than arcane, arcane is one ability
I got my own acc in what end of MoP, i was 11 at the time
maybe 10
im a wrath baby and played on my dads acc so i was very young
oh dangg haha, I've been playing since vanilla when I was like...8, took a few extended breaks
i took a huge brake since end of wod till the near end of legion
played on a few vanilla servers here and there but i just want the actual classic servers
first attempt at trial got rank 805
really good considering literally 1/4 of the people below you are cheaters
theres a prismatic achievement?
It's the scythe I believe. Heal on crit
ohh
completing one gives you an achievement and item
also first one gives you 5% crit
nice
stack ~3 of them on arti with some glasses and suddenly your R on a group of enemies makes you invuln until a blazing lumerian hits you with a single fireball
thats sick
Me thinking about trials when playing the actual game
too*
ye
haha
that's awesome
pog
thats how I feel when I play the normal game with arti...I can never get anything going with them but all the other chars are so easy
how long did it take to draw?
i planned it out last night and this took like an hour or 2
wtf
?
takes me 2h to draw a straight line without a ruler
more you do the faster it gets
lol i plan on drawing more of this game i just love the style
draw mr. jumpy
lmao i should
draw mr. jumpy but thicc
I second a mr. jumpy drawing
lol alright i'll work on it until the trial comes out
thank god i have the stone golem logbook
my mans has 2 fingers lmao
honestly this chat out of all of them is the best
we even have inside jokes
it's because we just have a couple regulars
that play this stupid trial all day
to try to gain a tiny sense of accomplishment
๐
and thats all i need to live
ay but its more fun than a thousand random people just talking
^
Makes for a great community when we all work towards the same thing โค
๐ฆ
and aint no mods in this wild west
crab revolt
^^
fps determines what you get from teleporter
๐ฆ ๐ฆ ๐ฆ ๐ฆ ๐ฆ
crystal jump affected by fps
mr. jumpy doesn't want to shoot you
random wisps
no crit
ox noises
^
I love the base game and the trials, and so much is still missing it's only gonna get better
yeah
they really gotta lower the crit chance though, so only the most skilled players get good times
we need 1/1000 chance to crit :) :)
new trial 17min hype
the lower the chance the more luck is involved so i dont see how that works ๐
its not out yet
remove random crits from trials
do you guys know what difficulty the prismatic trials are on?
rainstorm
โข Prismatic Trials leaderboard change seems to be positive!
Is rainstorm normal or easy
has it really though?
yes
idk
^ ?
thats in their new announcement
really this literally what they said lmao
tfw the most active trial players don't even know what the only info regarding trials means
I just wanna be able to scroll through the damn thing a bit
^
next step for me is to put option to see specific char leaderboard instead of overall
yeah that'd be huge
And ban hacked times
i noticed not a lot of peopl cheat with arti
then seed crits, remove weird bug where you have to cap fps for some things to work differently
idk how cheating will be solved really
idk the FPS thing could just be a coincidence and doesnt really do anything
? It wouldn't be easy but it's very much doable
i think its just something we're gonna have to live with
when is these changes coming?
Yeah they'll do something about it eventually but it wont be high on their list for a good while
Ah yes
Game developers never implement cheat detection software into their games
Fuck dude ur right
My bad
does osmeone have time to next trial?
8 mins
well u dont get any reward for it, why would it be a priority ๐
im in the middle of a csgo comp game, got someone on my friends list on the enemy team
reeee
wait till this esport gets on fox news or something
Literally who is saying it's a priority
more like just saying it isnt
It's something they'll have to do when they implement rewards
Other wise no one is going to give a fuck
๐ how big is 10%
Because anyone that does will just easily install cheat engine
how big IS 10% actually
Say that again out loud
around 20k people do them including cheaters
would be nice to get indication if you're in the top 10%
you do
ye
you're pink
you're pink?
oh yeah but theres cheaters lmao
If your name is pink you're top 10%
weird
It's bugged right now though
i was in 200s last time and wasn't pink?
I was like top 1000 and i was pink
less people played maybe?
so
๐ maybe i didnt pay attention
I have someone on my friendslist that took 14 and 1/2 mins and are at #14615 and they are pink so I don't think so
x
reasonable numbers my man
i remember peeking at the leaderboard back when it showed the list from first place and there were dudes with negative thirteen minute times and it did not inspire joy
everyone is pink!
hard to tell without being able to scroll but I'd say at least the top 250
It's bugged
just upgraded myself to real top 500 then ๐
Pink means top 10 though
Id say its just top 200
It's just bugged
i think im in the top 250
before the list resets can somebody who placed really high tell me if there are any mercs up there
im 296 and pink
2:13.45 is #284 and you're not gonna get a much better time than that realistically
1:45 until next seed
what rewards do u even think they will put?
tuna coins
you get a hat
We don't know
5 tuna coins my man
yea i know we dont
big foam cowboy hat
enjoy
just speculation ๐
Hopefully harder trials for 10%
tuna coins sounds terrible tho
every time you get top 10% it increases arti and huntress' ass size by 5%
1 minute people get to your stations
Get ready......
they can't put something super duper desireable as the reward because all 10% spots will be taken by cheaters every time
Get set......
just makes me think whats the reward that will be given out every 3 days,
GO!
blazing stone titan
blazing stone titan
blazing stone titans on every stage ๐
replaces regular enemies
That's easy
no items
inverted camera
ok ill go in and check it out
first person to find the preon wins
lunar pod has helix
when u start using lunar for speed trials ๐
(what's helix)
auto use item 50% faster cd
yeah I call it helix
Isnโt it a waste of time to take bazaar portal
depends
In prismatic trials
we dont know yet
only for prismatic
oof these crystals arent lookin too good for arti
blazing vagrant
๐คข
lol im still scouting map1
are claoked chests free?
@crystal trench ur not missing out
idk if i spent money
We're fucked
i'll check again
this trial is ass
how in the diddly piddly titties am i supposed to do this as merc in less than fifty hours
i can't even fuel cell preon like last time
all good guys i found the ammo rounds and energy drink ๐
ye idk
there's a backup mag in the shop next to the second tp
i dont think there's a preon
whats the second boss?
i got titan as 1st but i took my time
good
lol
honestly dunno how i'm gonna do this in any amount of reasonable time as merc
blaze vagrant wasn't a lie btw
time to install cheat engine ๐ ๐
unless there's something easier eariler
i went kinda fast
someone good at the game might be able to get a boss that isn't gonna rip their soul out
i can beat first level in like 1:15
crystals aren't that bad
just kill the boss 4head
ask him nicely to leave
@slim lintel have you killed the first boss?
not working on it atm not for a few hours
Jesus stage 2 is going to be painful
i activated stage2 portal at 2min and got blaze vagrant
gg
this is def not rushable, i think item stack
time to play find the secret preon
ok bot
i have a pretty good way for the 1st stage for arti but i can't kill the boss under 20 hp because the flying fuckers
It's always rush able
Well, brute forcing your way through vagrant fight is possible, but you should get lvl 4 first and then you have to be really careful of his attacks
okay i can beat the 1st stage under 1:30
where's that cloaked chest at?
the the next stage is easy to boost to and get coin canisters then boss but you literally have an energy drink thats it
there's a lot of stage 1
First stage Titan?
could you gimme a hint
titan, blaze jellyfish
Ez
gimme sec screenie
Well
cheers
wtf
is this
what did you get ?>
๐
is there any items to help?
cheers mate
whats the event when it changes the boss? something like ground shaking
You guys think going for the crit glasses and crystal next to it is worth it? I'm thinking get one at start, then the on in the left corridor and then the one you pass on your way to portal
so it's energy drink or crit glasses hmm idk
I think you can get both quickly
where are these glasses at?
i really want to get the AP near the first teleport but it's around a pillar and it sucks
i didnt make my informative screenshot for no reason
what
cloaked chest
confirmed real
no lies in this channel
ezpz death do us part in this trial for anyone who hasn't done that yet
button's just sitting there
i actually haven't beaten 2nd boss without lv5 yet
lv4 mult still dies to the jellyfish
so theres no preon this time round?
don't die 4head
i'm gonna be a coward and pass on this entire trial because fighting a blazing jelly as merc is dealing damage to my soul
wow huntress has like no boss damage
great at taking out crystals
but sucks at boss
just shoot it until it dies kappa 123
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/408298426 r8 my run
idk what to do to kill the fucking jelly faster
that 4:57 is going to be an embarrassment in 2 days
i'm hmph on the leaderboard, fastest mult atm
right we gonna find some magic shit by the end
I just get the bullets on the first level, kill boss
then get the equipment on second and kill the boss
But i'm fucking 2 minutes slower than t he fastest huntress
time?
mine?
ye
3:20
Huntess is cheats
ah alright
there's no way that huntress is legit
some dude ran through with an instakill cheat or somethin
1:11 and 1:21 as huntress isn't gonna happen
yea i tried
couldn't really do much
like it takes a minute or something to kill the first boss
there's also a crit pickup on second level
but idk if it's worth taking it because the potential time saved is lost by just walking around getting it
I think if you're really lucky you'll get some goodies by the item booth thing with the question marks
