The mower
Hello gelato bros
ohhhhhh
for why
idk apparently for being too silly ๐ญ
Holly cannoli artificer with iron surge is a beast, they can never get hit by flying through the air like a dragon
Should be made into a positive thing
like off topic silly?
Like a recreational activity
You are evil, i know it
no, no it shouldnt
Yes it should
Bc you are, you smell like someone that is evil
idk all the info i had is "SO FUN SO SILLY get outa here"
probably getting banned for saying a ban message word for word
so the mods just banned them for 0 reason?
idk probably not
Right? @potent marten
Yes it is
Sounds about right
grok make research
what happened gang
sounds about wrong actually
@grok
anyway the glorpo guy is here
its probably my perfume



What
grok its time for your little brother gork to take over
-# iykyk
Idkkk, you were pretty stinky
The guy that called me mentally ill cuz I didnโt like Toby fox games?
dont remember their full user
@potent marten
hey man the kill time was like a beast
artificer is best survivor
you can never get hit by flying in the air forever like a flying bird who flies
so either be mentally ill from liking toby fox games or be mentally ill from not liking toby fox games
youre using ion surge right?
yes
good
Itโs a lose lose situation
for infinite air time. what is a beetle going to do if i am in the air
its actually a meh meh situation
not even the elder lemurians or magma can get me
Yea
What I do
with iron surge i am invinicible
Call them stinky
and then some
@agile kestrel youโre stinky
that one gif of mario looking at his phone sadly
๐ช

my favorite survivor is bnadit
Fish fear me
best ranged survivor yeah
i like him because he has a knife and can turn invisible just like me
spy tf2
i am going to gut you like a cornish game hen
i cant believe team fortress copied risk of rain 2
how dare they
valve has never had an original idea in their lives
they stole left 4 dead from helldivers
i got the name change down
in half their lives
they stole borderlands too
oh valve not gearbox
they stole overwatch from deadlock
they stole overwatch and league of legends and Shadows of Evil from COD zombies and made it into one game
the borderlands movie is such a copy of the game ๐
evil scumbag company...........
they stole epic games from steam
that movie dont exist
yes it does :)
nope
the borderlands movie is the telltale borderlands game
there is no sequel to pacific rim
there is no borderlands movie
and there is no dragon ball live action movie
thanks for reminding me of hearing the gipsy danger theme again
it always plays in my head when i enter and exit the ocean
but when you're piloting a jaeger
you can fight the hurricane.
you can win.
chills
i love that movie with all my soul
the world is coming to and end
so where would you rather die
here or in a jaeger
reset the counter
god i need to rewatch Pacific Rim
what is up my SLIMES
the ceiling
didnt you do that less than 24 hours ago
ok
nah you said it at 22:35 yesterday
and 22:06 today
less than 24 hours
mods kill him
I saw a video of apparently kanye wests steam account being leaked and it showed he had 170/170 achievements in risk of rain
๐ญ
fuck my brother told me about that and i thought he was lying
kanye better than me at ror2 ๐ซฉ
why is the bag eyes so ass on discord
its so good on apple
and then its just this
Mithrix died really fast
Hey quick question, how good are on hits on artificer? Got offered electric boomerang and runic lens as the free reward on prime meridian and im not sure which one to take (or whether to scrap my meat hook into armor piercing rounds)
runic id say
console?
also with the meathook, if your gonna continue the run, keep it, but if your ending with rebirth, get the aps
Yes
cool
I'll be going to AC so I'll keep it then, thank you
and uh frost relic
and uh mired urn
and uh safer spaces and plimp and pluri
and uh 500 transcendence
you're forgetting
no
ok
i got everything i want
Polylute is good
yeah but i like uke more
I was going to offer you a real life energy drink so the run can last 8 hours
but i have been denied.
yeah i dont want an 8 hour run
I curse you with an egocentrism.
God imagine the amount of pearls from a cleansing pool for that.
play risk of rain sexy style
finished out Merc in one run
Acrid?
artifact of circle
artifact of chests mod
they dont have a special picture for some reason it just adds 2x, 4x and 6x the chests
longstanding solitude is so fucking broken bruh
thats a lotta chests
i only had 2x and 6x on and yeah
Listen. Acrid players? Sexy. Sorry to drop this truth bomb upon you.
(I don't play acrid, I'm ashamed.)
girlfail
78% of the achievements got
Did I just get called a girlfailure?
Guess I'm a girl now, that's new....I accept my fate.
I'll just do the tomodachi life cute pose randomly, now.
Congrats. Cap'n I struggle with on eclispe.
get 7 hours sleep guys
no
sl**p
s***p
censor this word next time please
schleep
โ
you're gonna get slimed by mods bro don't spam
i was testing something, but ya you right
because this is how you play on 5 hours
that again
took way too long to send
sand
โ
this mf seriously playing with alt util
Alt util is good
people don't?
its shit movement
Bad map traversal but good for combat
Yes because 3 super jumps that spray oil everywhere is so bad
I don't!
because i suck and dont have it unlocked
my timing is shit on it
Oil spill is great for damage with sear or amazing for freeze chaining
i get to move fast with the normal one
Such a bad ability smh
i use yes chef
And with the alt one you move fast upward
with normal you get increased jump height, not to mention you can use objects as a ramp
best stage 1 or what
only 1 drone holy guacamole
One isn't better than the other
hi people
Situational
You can jump 3 times with oil spill
hi person
you called
i was thinking about 100%ing a new ror2 save
And it acts as a double jump and cancels fall damage
aw man wrong username
how does one time oil spill
i HATE oil spill
What
do it without dying
WHAT
Press it just after hitting the ground
Shrimple
Do it after you hit the ground
did this guy just reply to a message that was sent after?
what the freak
wrong reply
chat moved and i hit reply to the wrong thing
He deleted his message
i just watched race's macro itemization video. sounds good in theory but wouldn't waiting to pick up items until you've scoured the entire map for recyclers n stuff slow you wayyyyyyyy down and fuck up your scaling?
hi vietcongbongdong
greetings to ye
stage scaling is way worse than time scaling in ror2
hello suncles
unless you're taking forever you're almost always better off full clearing
did you have a good day today?
holy shit its the inventors of risk of rain
somewhat, a good reminder is that race plays with the umbral mithrix mod, which requires a lot more foundational resources to get a win out of a run
furthermore, it's up to you to decide how much you can invest on the stage macro, but the time scaling won't ever get bad because the gameplay that the game requires from you to overcome it is the same
i'm not saying not to full loot, I'm saying that waiting to pick up items until you have scoured the map for all equipment in search of credit cards and recyclers sounds like it would add even more time loss than even full looting
strafing and shooting
throw that in art chat
Feels like you could design an entire survivor out of any combination of 2 Ultrakill weapons
suncles you must inform me
will i still get muted for slimeposting more than 1 a day
i kinda agree but that guy is much more cracked than me so what do i know lmao
so the benefits are ambiguous without umbral mithrix, you mean?
my runs have been better just rawdogging it and makin it work tbh
Mithrix getting ratio'd
you see, the time spent on a stage is on 2 facets for me
-the time it takes to go to every piece of loot
-the time to get the amount of money to buy said pieces of loot
Nuh uh
mithrix and providence dapping up
Hell yeha
i mean yeah obviously im not saying its a bad strat, bro is a god among men. im mostly trying to understand how the positives outweigh the negatives
the latter is one that will reach it's limit, but you will deal with it for at least 5-8 minutes per stage on the average, more on stage 1 because of the 300 extra you need for halcyon shrine
and the former will lead you to always be around a chest while waiting for money to come your way
Is halcyon shrine even worth the absurd money and time investment bruh
increasing odds. leaving stage with good items > leaving stage fast
if you have your maps layouts figured out, looting will always take the same average amount of time
I only do it if it's near tp
I'm at low odds to discuss this one with you
Cause I can just funnel the tp money into charging them both at the same time
obviously
I'll just say yes and focus on the topic I was
3 items with a high chance of getting a red AND you get to choose from 5
yes in the very beginning of a stage there's no downside i suppose. but like if you dont have a lot of mobility items the former will still vastly prevail
It has higher odds for red items?
then it's up to you to recognize the need for the resources
I'm in a position where I know I will win every run I play if I just full loot
pretty sure its 5 small chests, with a tiny bit lower white chance
race plays with quality which has a 25% increased scaling
lemme check the chances actually hol up
and has to build for umbral mithrix
so there is a higher necessity for resources
and more importantly, he enjoys the process
if you watch his streams you'll se he dies on runs too, quality scaling will get to you
a fully charged Halcyon shrine will give you a choice between 5 items, 3 of which will always be SOTS items which are notoriously strong
fine guys ill play a run
For 300 gold though? Thats like more money than looting the entire rest of the stage combined
that means Sale Star, Chance Doll, Chransion, etc
chances from the wiki
those are better odds than chests
Plus the time investment plus the gilded halcyonite
it's a minute extra for syphoning the gold
Hmm I see that explains a lot
for 3 high quality items
its quite quick actually, and the halc isnt that hard if you know how to deal with it
why he geen
Cus why not
Ok well one more question then
when you low roll halcyon shrine, itโs not the end of the world because at least you made sure you didnโt lose out on a really good item
when you high roll? that might just make your run
Do you still fully loot the rest of the stage
yeah
you always full loot
I always do
Cause that shit gonna take 10 minutes
that's fine
Aight then
Discord sniper ๐
I'll try it next time
if you have like 150 money going into the shrine, the golem spawns plus the stuff that spawns during it will get you to the full 300
i always full loot
Your bio just cuts off so fucking suddenly lmao
the power of good items will always outscale the difficulty
Meows a little
Dam
meower is HERE
EVERYONE GET DOWN
Operatorโs secondaries are so funny
thanks
Override is advertised as โright tool for the right situationโ and Swarm is advertised asโฆ a swarm
i won this run
Override does everything bro
needless to say crafting is kinda fucking busted
and Override is also just โrandom bullshit goโ
Only a lot
I like override because stacking hundreds of bleed with gunner drones + nanobug is funny
I think the reason crafting is so strong is because the cost-reward ratio is very low
i literally only had one ceremonial dagger and that one shell that drops items from large enemies killed every other red item i crafted
compare this to something like soups
you need 3 white items to make a green
and 5 greens to make a red
sacrificing 15 watches for happiest mask rn
yeah crafting doesnยดt have any rules that make it so crafting costs enough to make you consider if its worth it
whereas with crafting you need 2-4 items to make an item youโll most likely want OR crafting it is a net positive most of the time
ive got it ive figured out the perfect artificer buidld
its almost always fucking worth it to give up a couple specific items to create the perforators and have sauteed worms
Empathy cores recipe is hilarious because its basically free
Like why wouldn't you make it
AND THE URN
Boxamite isnโt very good AND stacks poorly
I just keep one for the free drone
jesus frigging christ we had to self destruct cause we just would not die and its been so long
the different kind of obliteration
Ultimate meal is broken granted you get the items to make it
10 billion propane tanks
thats a short run
is it really better than just keeping your clover?
Short my ass
it says the effects are only there when your healthยดs full
2 and half hours jesus I need to eat
If the other red isn't very great then definitely
itโs just BEGGING to be turned into Empathy Cores
in what way is it better than clover
It's 2 clovers in one
if you have two Clovers, itโs better to just keep the Clovers
oh its two??? i didnt fucking know it was two clovers at once
never fucking mind
you can use lot of poopy reds to make it into another clover
yes short
also shields don't count for being full hp for some reason
I'll usually keep grectar and scorpion too but all the other reds in its recipe are fair game
yeah itโs +2 luck, whereas Clover is +1
Iโm in a low reception area, messages are taking forever to send
the one caveat is that it only gives you +2 luck at full hp (not including shield)
just move to a high reception area
which is why 2 Clovers > Ultimate Meal
genuinely how did Hearty Stew make it out of testing phase
might be a top 5 item
Very funny John risk of rain
the healer
How tf did a greater wisp spawn on stage 1
they do that
i only see them on stage 10+
you don't
felt like doing a nano spear run
im sylvie
THATS SO COOL
i like elden ring and elden ring nightreign
nightreign was a magnificent experience
The sub is nautica 2
you were magnificent, elden ring nightreign.
i will not forget you as long as i live.
I probably will
subnautica 2 is good but it couldve launched with more small fish i feel
I never played it
it's early access ain't it
Yeah
yeah
which is why this isnt a big deal at all
i just wish that part was a little more developed
i do wish there were also more scary fish but thats also likely for later too
altificer
Maltficer
This mf prismatic trial istg this is try 500 of it
Blaz cild
what moron thought adding children was a good idea
Gearbox
more targets to hit
middle finger emoji is my thought of gearbox
Yeah I hate children so much
The ror2 enemy is also annoying
@plain narwhal
i have like
no mobility
whatsoever
but that wont stop me
thats what happens when you pick fl*methrower
+
cycling gonna go nuts
mr niche over here
nah im hardly even using that
would go hard
Warhorn is what, 7s +4s per stack?
you only have around 2 seconds of downtime I think?
maybe not even that
its only like 50% more attack speed tho aint it
what does war horn do again

worth it
70%, multiplicative
Attack speed buff when using equipment
ty
I have yet to get harvesters scythe
I cba to do that boring ass prismatic trial
while collecting ac spoilers in the process
jane drone
Thatโs me 
god i hope HC doesnโt add any more enemies with movement like the Scorcher
went through Pretenderโs Precipice and Iron Alluvium back to back, the most anti-artificer shit ever
I'm usually on stage 5 35-40 minutes in, when you get efficient at looting you just zoom by
And this is with me full looting taking detours just for a little more loot
Ac goes at lighting quick pace
now that was great
rare halcyonite spawn
This was a Slow but steady run
lol
Also keep in mind for my looting pace, im less compelled to invest in drones (due to downpatched ai), ignore void cradles (of which there are more of downpatched for some reason), occasionally skip the red on stage 4, and dont have halcyonite shrines spawn
Im not doing mountain shrines literally every chance i get either
If my run is going poorly im very inclined to skip them
I do occasionally start the tele before finishing looting if theres a good chunk of the loot near the tele itself too
Especially if i have a squid polyp
Operator is quite a fun character
if operator didnt have to worry about drones dying he'd be my fav character in the game
win
I now have every character unlocked save for the seekers characters (I do not have seekers)
REX run next
Seeker
ive never really had an issue with drones dying when playing operator
Base game- commando
DLC - railgunner
My left foot
My rotten left foot
Seeker is DLC
Nobody cares seeker is still better
Also loader is literally right there
I beat a monsoon elite boss with no items at all as artificer
Engi is pretty cool
Loader 1 artificer -43627357187463
Loader needs crowbar spam to be good
I can do a no items run with artificer right here rn
oooo shuriken bandit might be juicy
Merc is better than arti since she only has technically the ability to not get hit, while merc has loads of i frames in his kit
arti has magic tho
everyone is better than arti because i dont like arti and her playerbase
and explosion
ykw im going to do a no item run with arti to prove she is superior
Everyone 2 arti -374629295720464729
That aside I'd say engineer also beats her out, just because turrets are fucking stupid, why did they make them that good
itemless hardly means much to me because the game was designed around items
thats just me tho
Good luck
By far hardest challange in the game
Godspeed
Acrid is safer and more consistent than arti because every enemy guaranteed dies in 100 seconds and you can be five years away and able to immediately get out with leap, and captain gets to just not play the game similarly to engineer, but more in a "if you get drones you gimp the one attack that is threatening on mithrix" ๐ญ
Why do microbots eat pizza
my friend said the hollowed concepts logo looks like a pixar logo
I get that its a projectile but what the fuck
Holy shit
hongry
Anyway itemless doesn't mean shit because everyone can do itemless
Idk i don't think its the benchmark to look for
Especially when the game is designed around items
Not even remotely true
That'd be like saying rex is bad because eclipse hurts him
Qwp do I need to do commando itemless
By everyone i mean survivors
Not everyone literally
Sorry words are hard
Yeah, i know
Thats what I interpreted it as
it definetly helps a character's case when they can do itemless
I guess if you include artifacts it doesnt matter but
but it also helps a characters case to have a wide variety of items to use as well
Having guranteed consistency regardless of your luck is a great asset to have
Its why seeker is the best
Guranteed everything no matter what
Except for fun 
TRUKE
loader and bandit are still very effective bc of their powerful base kits
All the (generally) strongest survivors also have the best itemless chances, coinky dink? Think not
btw im currently reupdating my game again
how come?
:O
The fuck
Ac missed faraday spur 
see i would disagree with this
bc of how important items are overall
the best characters will have the largest variety of items they can use
its what makes false son stand out
I mean like
Name all the strongest survivors (minus engineer hes the one exception)
Theyre all generally the only ones cut out for itemless
qwp saging this like they didnt do pre rework chef false son itemsless
Its why commando and huntress have not and most likely never will have an itemless E8 clear
yeah how many tries that took
people have done commando
we'd probably disagree on that
my top 5 are seeker, false son, engineer, captain, and acrid in that order
i think ottermando has
Windows 7
There's no way that's never been done with huntress
ottermando did commando e8 itemless
did he finally do it?
When?!
Commando is like my top 5 characters
I heard him say he got close i dont believe he ever did it tho
wasn't that the one they said they did it
he had been getting really close for quite a while last i heard about it
It hasn't
but it wouldnt surprise me if he finally did it either
Brodun you extraordinarily underestimate how difficult it is
It is the hardest thing you can do in the vanilla game ๐ญ
@gilded tartan you would be the better person to confirm
did you do commando itemless e8?
never beat it but was close back in the day
Yup
ok cool, my bad there then
ah
phase 2 mithrix fight
Nobody even did itemless E8 loader unseeded until last year lmao
Oh wow
Beat or reached btws
also to answer the earlier questions about why
i just kind of felt like it?
having 2 different versions of the game to play with completely different core feelings is fun to flip between occasionally
Half way through
honestly i bet itemless e8 mando/huntress is possible, just so hard that nobody bothers
Oh it is
fair enough
yknow you can have both installed at the same time right?
ig playtime tracking would get screwed tho
do drones invalidate itemless?
no
they are some of the hardest characters to play in the game overall itemless or not
oh?
oh that changes everything then
i allowed them but now prob not since there are some broken drones
I guess drones arent items I just thought they counted as items for this
if im allowed to use drones you bet your ass im spamming those things for an itemless run in modern version of the game
The old drones were rare and not really that good
Yeah generally the people that have been doing the wave of itemless runs late last year have not allowed drones
It is technically low% but nobody calls it that for obvious reasons
Yeah i wouldent allow them now tbh
Oh itโs this guy
Low% e8 is the hardest thing the game has to offer*
I suppose
who should i play for a first time back to the present?
I would like to one day put a commiunity funded bounty on some ridiculous challange like this.
I have a spare key for Celeste and another crabs treasure, was considering the idea of putting them into a pool which gets claimed by whoever does low% E8 all bosses
122233 operator methinks
so fult alt double transport Op?
ya
another entry for https://discord.com/channels/417739215355510784/1449234893702692937 inbound
unfortunately
i never got around to unlocking that last one
its kinda ass
any tips for it?
only kind of
It always shocks me to see people like AC not have all unlocks
primoridial cube
Reformed altar primordial cube yuh
thats good yeah
i havent used it but i did unlock it
i should give it a try
maybe ill learn some new stuff today
It is very fun
this will be delicious
I will eat Gup
Void cube if you can get it
Might just be me but that looks kinda raw
It is you, that's totally fine
Its just skinned chicken
The skin provides the orangey browns we associate with "cooked"
the descriptor
I've cooked a chicken or two in my time
This does look delicious by the way
Too late


oh my god i keep getting the WORST run seeds ever
Now that I have bands, I'm gonna try rainstorm runs
ive decided to get diablo strike.
why you may ask?
i YEARN FOR THE DIABLO JUMPS
and i fucked it up
doing itemless artificer is going to take a WHILE
im gonna kill myself probably.
That's why they call me Mr fahrenheiiiiiiiiit
I'm traveling at the speed of liiiiiiight
Doesn't Diablo kill everything in its radius?
"parry this you filthy casual"
it does 40k% your base damage
HES SURVIVING AT 2 HP
Wow
I would too if I were him
Getting folded by some dude encrusted in junk they found off of the floor
Does it do that damage to you too?
hold on let me get a video of this run this is GARBAGE
oop
Or am I thinking of something else?
mithrix cant kill himself
even if he does a self damaging attack at 1hp
get em junk drone
WAIT GUYS
that was a lot easier than i expected
does voidling count as a final boss
call me crazy but itemless is very difficult and not something most people can do
idk i made it to stage 4 on my first itemeless attempt
and itll get harder from there
i made it to stage 6 on my first itemless attempt as acrid
acrid is good at that yeah
bc acrid
Test.
what are you testing my g
alright now i can actually do this
Yeah back online.
were you muted or did you just have no wifi
There was no roles.. wanted to check if it was my internet or discord bugged out again.
Just took a second.
yeah that happens sometimes
it happens when your tab goes in sleep mode and you go back into it
yeah dont worry i turned it off
i thought you played downpatched
Ah that makes sense.
when playing survivors added after sotv its a bit weird
you cant true downpatch and turning off dlcs also is weird sometimes
also these survivors are designed with those dlcs in mind
i failed diablo unlock, so we try again
operator loses like half his drone variety with ac off
so this kit likes grouping up enemies and a kite heavy playstyle i take it
oh yeah only mithrix counts
everything is aoe
when they say 'the final boss' it means mithrix
sometimes i despise hopoo.
every other final boss is apparently not a final boss
wow theyre intelligently disposing of the beetles
i get fs and shart not being a "final boss" because you can continue the run, but voidling literally forces you to end it
Captain's Diablo was released with base game (I think) so it would (probably) only account for mithrix
not that it matters here eh 
infact, vling is MORE of a final boss than mithrix
because you can continue to vling FROM mithrix
i think its just my run seeds. look at this bullshit
what bullshit
this is normal
look at the bosses that spawn
three fucking clay dunestriders in a row
that is some bullshit
lmao
just one used to be an instant reset lol
you beat them just fine 
actually considering how far i got i prolly wouldve won if they didnt do 3 consecutive clay dunestriders and then greater wisp and bronze construct spam on stage 5
sky meadow does that
Release space while in the air briefly to dodge with your fall speed
Itemless gets extremely hard around Stage 5
You need a class with consistent self healing like Seeker to beat it
itemless was never intended to be possible just be warned
alr
artificer does it better than most but still
Of course other survivors can do it as well but it will be extremely hard
to quote the backlogs
it always seems impossible until it is done
I did Itemless Seeker on False Son
I almost got murked by Claystriders in Sulfur Pools
people have done it but they have more experience
itemless rainstorm should be ok especially since ion surge is a built in pillar skip
Itemless Seeker E8 is also possible but its kinda luck based
but i dont think i could do monsoon on most survivors
I could probably do an itemless commando run on rainstorm if i really wanted to
Fresh save commando eclipse 8
Dw it will get harder
Have you gone to the moon
nano spear is probably better for itemless just because of mithrix
id rather have nanobomb
Freeze is OP since you can basically disable any problematic HVTs that arent bosses
mithrix is easy to cheese as arti anyhow
for them i think nanospear would provide the consistent safety net
I had to take a break to deliver a burrito to my mom
not yet
just be careful of pizza resets
ive only made it to stage 5 that was my most recent run
i think mithrix would probs be the easiest part anyway ngl
Have you killed the guy on the moon at any time
mithrix?
Yes
rainstorm -> itemless rainstorm is harder than rainstorm -> monsoon so
ive beaten him once, yeah
oh i havent even beaten regular rainstorm this is gonna be my first rainstorm victory
after i do artificer itemless
Idk
Pizza still hits like a truck and phase 2 can be rough with no mobility
whos pizza
is pizza a survivor
Big Spinny attack
oh that one was easy do dodge
yeah but you got ramps, hev and a freeze anyway
It can catch you offguard especially if theres chimeras shooting at you
Most dangerous enemy in phase 2 is these flying chimera gunners
Since theyre running itemless theyre even more dangerous since they got some pretty crazy hitscan aim
Even more dangerous if theyre Perfected
arent they immune to freeze
oh
If they are immune to Freeze then itโs not on the wiki
i need to be studied
why
well in that case i will use a different utility
for pizza?
But i dont see why they would be, theyโre not close to boss enemies
there is no different utility
enforcer isnt coming back
If you dont see a locked skill box then there is no other skill to use
is the shield good
secret skill
its pretty good when you use it as a shield with good timing
its really funny bc you kind of just back yourself into a corner and make your drones take all the damage for you
yes
I meant i'll use the like charged nano bomb or something else to hit them and not the ice thing
pizza doesnt care if youre airborne
๐
the strat for pizza is to get somewhat close
Pizza is basically "if you stand in the line you DIE"
i fought a titan without dodging it pretty much at all bc i had a shield that blocks the laser
nice
makes sense
to the pizza or to mithrix?
More specifically find where you move at the same speed as the spin
mithrix
it is good to know you can still m1 while shielding too
also dont freeze mithrix during pizza he will restart it from the beginning when he unfreezes
are we thinking of the same attack actually
pressing r is good for his sky slam
he cant hit shit when youre mid air during it
I wish Engineer bubble shield actually repels enemies away from it
Like the shield from DRG
but for pizza it just makes dodging harder
I am actually amazed you can freeze mithrix
alright hold on img oing to try to get to mithrix itemed first to test out the pizza
Can't do it with basic teleporter bosses but you can for the final boss
and then once i get a strat for beating him ill do it again itemless
i dont really
itd be a little too strong if it did i think
Dont even think about that
You are much much stronger with items
More movespeed, more damage, more utility, etc
these things still make me look bad
i think theyre referring to mithrix being able to be frozen
which is really strong
also false son i guess
ugh
double ugh since ascent operator can get away with spur very easily
idk if firewall operator can
does the shield boost you back even when youre grounded
When I did false son with my friend I just went chef and spammed alt m2
not as easily i think
+1 green scrap
ah
runic lens
win
Runic lens is the coolest proc chain item
The fact that it has high base damage makes it op on faster lighter hitting characters
runic lens is really cool but i find it kinda weird that it deals flat damage and (kind of) total damage
But the fact that both it's damage and proc chance scales with damage makes it insane on burst characters too
runic lens is weird af bc it doesn't hit FLYING ENEMIES
The only 2 things that I dont like about it are that it can reset your proc chain order (allowing it to continue infinitely) and that only 1 meteor can exist at once
runic lens is stupid strong
I got softlocked in CompEx because I had ss2 installed, had 1 molten coin + a ton of proc items and like 2 ultimate meals
I accidentally hit spex with a firework
also it stacks like shit
idm there being a max of one meteor, don't like the infinite proc chains tho
And then he kicked me out but I couldn't leave bc the proc chain kept going forever and giving me money faster than the exit portal could drain
๐ญ
i like this tbh, imo reds should stack like shit because given their rarity they should have most of their power upfront at 1 stack
i heavily disagree
I very much do not like getting 3 behemoths
infinite money can be a bad thing ig
theyre rare yeah but it wouldnt devalue the first stack if additional stacks were stronger
it would just make rare cases where you get two of the same red not a waste
and also improve benthic bloom
This genuinely fucking hurts when it happens
Same kind of pain as forgetting to save your sale star for the red chest
thats way worse and also your fault 
Yea but it's the same feeling still
i unironically think the idea that as you get more reds on your run you start valuing new reds less because there's a chance of them being a duplicate which is inherently less valuable than finding something new is really cool ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Except you're angry at yourself instead of the game
but it all comes down to perspective ig
it wouldnt be
Reds shouldn't be devalued faster than other items if anything it should be the opposite bc of their rarity
i would still rather different reds than stacking the same red regardless
i would rather 1 behemoth 1 sonorous 1 boomerang over 3 behemoths
even if behemoth was 60% +60%
They dont even need to stack well
They just need to have a noticeable stacking effect at all
i think they should but they definitely shouldnt stack like garbage
Networked suffering actually handles its stacking well imo
its alright
Aside from it being op from the 1st stack
i dont see a reason it cant be 4 +4 though
Gtg work cya
