Press Q for take all

Armor is duskwatcher set. Cloak is war-torn wine cloak. The helmet is Nightlurker head. It's unfortunately not in the game normally. We're only able get it via console commands

I know of 4 really active duo servers and like 4 active squad servers in NA. They tend to be most active on the weekends. One thing I would suggest is finding a server on the weekend that you like, grind up to max level, and then playing a little in the week and be on for raid hours on the weekend. Super fun

lololol

Hey thanks! Brighthaven runs are super good, especially on fresh wipes. I actually did it in a run recently as well! Check out Episode 1 of Duo to Dracula. If you're playing on like 1.5x or higher, they are easily the best start in the game by a very very large margin. Not saying 1.5x is the ONLY way they're good, but imo they become totally crazy when you start getting ~4 iron ingots per drop. You can come out with enough iron for 4 iron weapons in 1 loot run, or enough for 1 iron weapon (and a ton of other loot) extremely quickly. A few issues you'll find with Brighthaven runs that, IMO, make them riskier than Cursed Forest, is the fact that there is no TP nearby, so dying is a BIG issue. On top of that, doing them on established servers (not fresh wipes) can be really dangerous as well. If a single lvl 91 finds you, it's a massive waste of your time (which is a lot if you're farming 44 iron ingots etc), whereas with Cursed Forest, (on top of having a TP) the loot path is extremely quick AND the villages aren't super popular POI's in late game.

New to the game? This is on a PvP server. Getting to half 7 lvls lower on quincey is definitely NOT what you want to be doing. Anyone roaming into the boss can see the door broken open, and will know someone could be doing it. Getting ganked at half HP at quincey is a death sentence. on top of that, there were moments when I got snared by the trapper, and specifically a moment when quincey ignored my dash silhouette while merc charging and nearly hit me while I was below half, which would have nearly killed me AND since my dash was down, it would've been very likely that I would have died.

Not sure what you're talking about specifically, so maybe provide an example. This opening strat is very dangerous on an established PvP server (which this was), and being lvl 25 in brighthaven is asking to get one shot by a lvl 91. There's also an issue with Iron ingot farming, in that you can get extremely unlucky and not get enough to make a smithy and craft a weapon. My runs pretty much always revolve around trying new, interesting, or risky strats, so when they work out, it's satisfying.

It is for sure. The fresh wipe experience and racing other players is super fun, but absolutely NOT a requirement.

WOOF

Yeah, brighthaven has been a strat since shortly after the game came out in early access. I haven't fully mapped it yet, but I think this method would work out better overall as a duo. You front load iron to get into cotton faster, and then can send someone to farm silver mine to get reinforced planks, silver, and sulphur early. Silver mine has a much more narrow loot table, and can be looted significantly faster. You also only need 8-11 reinforced planks early on, so it's not as big of a deal if you don't get them all at once. There's also the fact that brighthaven is easier/less risky to farm at a higher level. I'm fairly certain as a duo you could have a lvl 50 player at just over 1 hr in, which is a high enough level to clear every other boss in t2 that matters. This means within 2 hrs you could be pushing into cursed forest, or very close to it.

Glad you liked it!!

I don't have it timed, but it would be significantly faster. What you would likely do here is have 1 player go wolf and then IMMEDIATELY go do a cursed forest run at lvl 10 (maybe stop for some chests to get some copper coins). The other player would probably do a quincey speed run strat (which kills quincey in around 20 minutes). 1st player does the sulphur mine strat (bombs to blow up nodes) after cursed forest and then bases to start working towards lvl 27. 2nd player does another iron run after quincey if it's been long enough since the first one (this depends on how long it took the first player to do it). At lvl 27, a player goes and kills leandra (I'll probably make a video showing how to do this), while the other gets the iron weapon asap and goes and starts cotton and wool thread farm (no need for nightstalker armor, just get iron weap and go farm). Keep in mind this is just 1 way to do this. There's also something to be said about someone getting an Instant copper weapon via Dunley Lumber -> basing -> Sulphur -> Bear -> Quincey while the other player Goes Wolf-> planks -> keely -> iron -> base. I'll try and see if I can get a duo version up at some point.

There's a patrol that spawns and roams inside his area. Sucks when they respawn mid fight

@@terribletimmy2 Yeah, totally. I actually did it mostly with the merciless bow and the Skeleton spawn shield + Ice barrier. They require paying more attention to where he's jumping around, and 0.5 seconds too late and he whacks you, but if you pull it off you can spawn skeletons that agro him or do damage to him with the ice shield. Either way, good video!

I don't think you understand the point of this video. First, anyone can play however they want. I have had tons of people tell me they only play solo PvE and yet they love speed running the game. "Taking it slow" when you have over 1000 hours in this game is rather pointless. What exactly am I going to enjoy in farbane on my 100th start? Second, the point of this video is to showcase the strat and let people modify it how they want for their own PvP runs. Duos will take it and also modify it. The majority of even veteran players have no idea this is even a thing, and therefore will find it helpful. Third, This strat definitely did not exist in day 1 ea because the loot tables for cursed forest were different and may requirements were as well. It was around in gloomrot, but NO ONE shared it or posted about it anywhere because they didn't want the masses knowing about it. The fact you're bringing up squad strats in a video about a solo leveling strat tells me you either missed the point or are looking for something to complain about.

​@@terribletimmy2 I was not dissing your video but anyway you do you. Reread my comment if you had to answer with a whole essay. And "speed progression" strategies were in the game since day 1 after all it is just rushing progression/optimizing it. Weren't youtube comments there to voice your opinion? I should've really troll answered because you beg for it.

missing out fun in early game my ass 💀💀

If you press Q when you open a container, it insta loots the chest

Particulierement quand on joue sur serveur PvP. Imagine si apres une heure tu recontre quelqu'un et tu as une lance et des axes de fer. GGEZ!

Def been meaning to look at some new servers.

The next biggest thing is working towards securing dawnthorn. It's such a MASSIVE upgrade over hollowfang, and not actually that hard to get. Lvl 53-56 is really all you need, and I'm able to kill everything required at lvl 53. Once you have dawnthorn and a silver weapon (after killing Cyril), especially on normal mode, every major progression boss is in reach. Baron first for amulet, then Henry, Matka, Voltatia, and Azariel are killable easily (even without merlot amulet if you want, but amulet is fairly easy to get imo)

Glad you enjoyed it!

Honestly same. I love theorycrafting this game

same!

I have a video in mind for future updates etc. Planning on posting a review/reaction to a recent dev interview.

@@terribletimmy2 Hey Timmy, are you referring to Xolo's interview? I was quite disappointed in that one since the things I was hoping for aren't a priority for Stunlock, being; modding tools.

Yeah that one. Same here tbh. I must not understand how they coded it in unity because if people have already managed to make the mods in the game currently, seems like some tweaks would open up so much. Also, map editor would be perfect for this game

It's a challenge

Here's hoping it's in the good way haha

Honestly no clue. I'm familiar with an old Quincey speedrun that was ~21 minutes, and then a speedrun that claimed wr for lvl 47 with Iron Wep + hallowfang at around 2hrs7mins (was def NOT wr but oh well). There's also WR Drac kill as a squad I believe, but none of them are accepted by any speedrunning community from what I know as a category. For me, I'm generally not super into doing speedruns myself unless it's a viable fresh wipe strat. Nothing against them, but I just prefer doing "practical" runs.

Don't see anything on Speeddemosarchive or the speedruns site.

Barely beaten by Kota

By a matter of seconds, friend. You were quick!

PvP life

Almost perfect timing

At this point there's a ton of interesting mods I've heard about. May have to look into them

Check my most recent guide for brutal mode. The things I show work exactly the same in normal mode

I actually don't know of anyone other than Adam where this strategy doesn't work well, and even then you can make it worth against Adam if you know how to do it.

Discharge polarity shift would be my suggestion. Use polarity shift with faster casting and use it for extra s

@@terribletimmy2 Ty! Haven’t tried that spell yet. I’ll report back soon 😭😭

If it doesn't work out, I'd go discharge ball lightning

@@terribletimmy2 I did it! 😭 Lightning curtain, discharge, rouge blood, it is possible 🤘🏼🤘🏼

Funny story, brutal mode originally made it so the lasers couldn't be turned off. People complained so it was changed to what it is now. The thing is, I also practiced this boss originally without breaking the lasers AND was able to beat him consistently 7 lvls lower with little issue. So when I tried it on brutal and the lasers couldn't be broken, I didn't think it was too bad and beat him first try.

@@terribletimmy2 Recently I watched videos of people fighting Adam and destroying the lasers, my mind exploded hahaha. I was thinking "WTF".

I'm guessing it's a settings thing?

hahaha good fights.

also you can just dash out when he does the big circle that gradually grow smaller on 1st phase, you dont have to wait until the attack is over

Both work. There are tons of different ways to do this. Counters simply allow you to block the damage and get back to attacking

Yes, but standing inside the circle let's you deal damage instead of just standing around

It's definitely a challenge, but having learned how to do it myself, the mechanical demand is SIGNIFICANTLY lower than it seems.

@@terribletimmy2I mean I’ve played for like 600 hours trying to get better but it seems the skill gap in the arena maps is too large I’ve got people switched to pistols to dodge attacks and various other things. I find that I just don’t have 2k hours to invest into pvp servers just to reach what seems to be the bare minimum of skill. Most my friends can only play for 2-3 hours and enjoyed the pvp when the game first came out and people where still learning the game. Lastly the arena maps only ever have between 10-20 people on them and half of them don’t even fight just watch. So you can’t even really train with someone your skill level. It’s just got to the point where my mates don’t even bother with the pvp and have stopped playing after drac
