Dang I talk slow in this vid. Good thing you can use your stand 「MADE IN HEAVEN」 to speed up the video. Also, taking a break before the next vid, just been burnt out a bit from school and such, sorry. Timestamps in the description. My discord is richyrich#8301 if you wanna compare anime waifu tier lists.
A little thing I would like to point out is that, to obtain Serenade's full DPS potential, you should think about it more like a weapon to be built around at than a skill to complement another weapon. When you can have a base weapon inflicting some status (blood sword, snake fangs, open wounds) to get a damage multiplier to Serenade's affixes, it can be incredible in both modes, and it becomes an incredible and really unique way to play, switching between the two modes to get the crits: going crazy with the weapon mode and inflicting status while is in skill mode. If I would rank it with all the criteria you said and thinking about it just like it, would put like: Usefulness: 4/5: Sword moveset can do some hurtful crits and do what you expect from a strong sword, if you work in these crits correctly. Sometimes, it really will not be as useful as in other biomes/bosses, but remember that you can have a backup weapon to help with it; Fun: 5/5: ... Ye- For some reason, I find it really funny, the way you would think in the middle of the battle with it. Learning curve: 3/5; It's a little bit subjective, and I'm not 100% certain if it's a really correct judgement, I'm also thinking about 2/5; but I can acknowledge that using all that swapping and criting can be challenging.
I just bought the game with all dlcs on the Switch after having bought it in my PS4. I'm making my way to 2BC and your videos help out a lot! Keep it up!
Pretty much agree. I tried so hard to make the Iron Staff work in custom mode but it just frustrated me to no end, whereas the snake fangs are incredible with any poison source.
I've used iron staff with rampart on 4 BSC and the 2 sec shield greatly reduces it's downsides, with armadillopack and ice shards you can easily land full combos and it's quite fun to use if you prefer playing slower. Edit: rip ice shards
I would disagree as the main weakness with it is that projectiles do a number on it and when it comes to synergy I never really found that to be a problem as in the second slot I'd just have an ice shield for projectiles because it does insane damage to enemies killing most enemies instantly you just wait for them to attack parry and then bash Thier head in
I think when you full charge the lantern before going into a boss it just deals so much damage the rest of the fight is pretty doable even if you dont get full charge again. personally i havent had it miss in a Boss yet but i do see how that would make it a big pain in the ass. Id probably still put it in A tier but apart from that you were spot on imo
I was in Ancient Sewers at 1BC and a cursed chest spawned at the end of the level. I had to fight Conjuctivius (I always thought it was Conjuctivitus fsr) with a curse. Not even the last minute Bthirsty shield could save me.
I had this game since when it came out but i stopped playing after beating 0bc a few times. I picked the dlcs up last week and started playing for real, currently struggling in 2bc but showing improvement day by day. Thanks a lot for the great and informative videos, it helped me a lot throughout this week
I do love Snake fangs as well, but daaamn this weapon is totally broken. With right mutations, you're actually flying through biomes like a butcher. Love your channel buddy, keep it up
serenade is so op when you have two of them. In the run i unlocked it i also got it with the 50 cells and on that run i had two of them. i dont know if thats possible in another case but if it is, its just broken
@@creamargument Very true, good point. That's just why I said 'normally' though. As finding a gold version of something you would want to double up on, with your current build, on normal mode is some pretty low RNG. I got the impression cyberspiky wanted to try that build again and I figured I'd just mention the easiest/fastest way.
your tier list is quite good and accurate, although personally I would have placed the serenade even higher than the s and I have my reasons, although I understand that if one does not know how to play well based on the serenade change mechanics it becomes a weapon without damage and a partner who falls short in front of others, but I have played a lot with serenade and I can assure you that it is the most broken thing that I have seen is a long time since to date, I have not found a single enemy that can hold him 2 hits and 2 critics of. Serenade(two in hand and two fliyng) not even with the bosses, since 2 maximum 3 critics and it changes phase, and it happens to me with all the bosses,even going bad on scrolls of power, but it is my opinion and yours and I respect it
Serenade would be so much better if you could use the power during mid-animation (other than the primary swinging animation). The idea is to be constantly swapping between using it as a primary and a pet, but its annoying when your input gets ignored because you weren't quite done with your roll.
not sure if you have seen this or not but souls carry over to bosses. Veedotme one shotted the scarecrow just from firing all the souls with the lantern
Hey dude. I am pretty new to dead cells and i have been playing the game while listening to your videos. I enjoy them a lot. But i have a question. Just today i beat hand of the king with a tactics build , i took the boss cell but for some reason after i went down to the Prison again the giant was gone and i had the rune unlocked. But i didn't have my first cell. Do i actually have to kill him twice to get my first boss cell ?
man I love the iron staff but damn does it suck. I love that they thought of incorporating parry into a weapon, but the whole point of parrying is that if executed perfectly, you can negate as many numbers of attacks until the window for your attack comes up. With a weapon that can only parry once in its 3 hit combo it goes against the whole point of parrying. Why would I parry if the parry's cooldown is 3 times as long as my dodge roll? I think a good way to rework it could be you can parry in any attack of your 3 hit combo, and only the attack followed by a perfect parry would crit. Alas I dont see them ever changing it tho, such a shame
Dude why dont you edit your videos in a such a way that you put in the parts which show the items your discussing about. Its really confusing to watch your video.
sry about that. I spent most of the time editing the effects for the tier lists. I wanted to get the vid out early, though I did feature some of the items I was talking. Will keep this in mind next time!
How dare you disrespect the mushroom boy he can break every bone in your body just like kicking you into the wall that or the Spartan sandal they do the same thing but you can potentially have 2 mushroom boy
Also Buff Lantern to have a hold function like Katana, to fire souls after an alternative melee hit. Then kill rhythm it to build up souls with the primary combo.

It's alright bro, keep up the good work.
It's fine man! Take your time and don't stress too much in college.
We need a outfit tier list.
Indeed
i feel like it would be a short vid since most outfits are just copy paste but with different color schemes. Might do it tho
I personally like Faithful HoTK best
Sacrificial and Furious Tick Outfit slaps btw
@@badri5444 the best one I have is the neon
You’re the top tier dead cells creator man. I agree with all your choices in this
Veedotme: *sad noises*
Docfirebird: *sad noises*
Windette:
*Confused noises*
@Kristina Veedotman is so much better then psychic

serenade is more of a main weapon than your main weapon if you pick it up and actually plan to use it, honestly.
Did you know that Seronade is inspired by the sword familiar from castlevania Sotn
I just bought the game with all dlcs on the Switch after having bought it in my PS4. I'm making my way to 2BC and your videos help out a lot! Keep it up!
It gets better after that because you get recycling tubes

Got me to reconsider the fangs, thank you!
I'd appreciate content about how you choose which biomes/bosses to head to
I agree. I think you put Iron staff a bit too low because the damage isn't terrible, but it's definitely not good.
Very hard weapon to find synergy with
I would disagree as the main weakness with it is that projectiles do a number on it and when it comes to synergy I never really found that to be a problem as in the second slot I'd just have an ice shield for projectiles because it does insane damage to enemies killing most enemies instantly you just wait for them to attack parry and then bash Thier head in
You got me with the P5 music in the background. Very informative as well.
Hey maaaaan when is the shield tier list coming out?
Nice new Persona inspired animation for when you rank the items :P
i tried to recreate it in after effects. Didn't go too well.
I think when you full charge the lantern before going into a boss it just deals so much damage the rest of the fight is pretty doable even if you dont get full charge again. personally i havent had it miss in a Boss yet but i do see how that would make it a big pain in the ass. Id probably still put it in A tier but apart from that you were spot on imo
Can't believe I haven't heard about this channel, keep up the great vids!
I was in Ancient Sewers at 1BC and a cursed chest spawned at the end of the level. I had to fight Conjuctivius (I always thought it was Conjuctivitus fsr) with a curse. Not even the last minute Bthirsty shield could save me.

Honestly just use survival it is just so easy to win with it at times and also I personally disagree with him saying iron staff is bad
@@Managarmr482 im not a huge fan of the iron staff either tbh, especially being a newer player its just too hard not getting hit with it
are we getting a mutation tier list?
I do love Snake fangs as well, but daaamn this weapon is totally broken. With right mutations, you're actually flying through biomes like a butcher. Love your channel buddy, keep it up
serenade is so op when you have two of them. In the run i unlocked it i also got it with the 50 cells and on that run i had two of them. i dont know if thats possible in another case but if it is, its just broken
Normally, you can only have 2 of the same weapon on custom mode. So you can recreate that build any time but it will disable trophies
@A1C gaming- you can always equip 2 the same if you find a legendary even in vanilla
@@creamargument Very true, good point. That's just why I said 'normally' though. As finding a gold version of something you would want to double up on, with your current build, on normal mode is some pretty low RNG.
I got the impression cyberspiky wanted to try that build again and I figured I'd just mention the easiest/fastest way.
Serenade bug makes it S tier xD
Can we get a Dead Cells ost tier list?
interesting idea! maybe some day
top 3 is prisoners cell, graveyard, undying shores for me rn
Fractured Shrines is definitely up there, and I'd argue High Keep Castle as at least an A tier
I found an interesting synergy whith snake fangs today whith ice shards and alcemists bow in backpack it did amazing in both boss and bioms
Try the Iron Staff with phaser (parry, phaser, and then critical hits)
To be honest, the audio is not bad in this video - I'd happily watch a live run with this audio
Great Video once again.
Are you gonna play P5S doe? 😳😳😳
persona 5 striker? prob not. I'm not really interested in the spin-off stuff, I played P4 golden and that was the only variant I played
your tier list is quite good and accurate, although personally I would have placed the serenade even higher than the s and I have my reasons, although I understand that if one does not know how to play well based on the serenade change mechanics it becomes a weapon without damage and a partner who falls short in front of others, but I have played a lot with serenade and I can assure you that it is the most broken thing that I have seen is a long time since to date, I have not found a single enemy that can hold him 2 hits and 2 critics of.

Did you take into account the fact that serenade has a tendency to “eat” you weapons? (Atleast on the switch version)
Thank you for referencing my man Reggie
Yo its DocFireBird

“Allocate some of your brain usage” do you think i use my brain when i play video games?
That clip of scarecrow being nearly one-shot by lantern...did they ditch the boss damage cap with the update?
All shots are separate so you can technically bypass the damage cap
Dude Persona 5 music in the background..ha love it
that elite hammer looked excruciating to deal with

You have to go to the tube in the starting room and select it

Gracias a tus guías pasé 2bc. Lov u man
You can have a ferryman lantern and giant killer in the backpack you will be able to kill every single enemy like this

What skin is he using
Lightning Rod Fix: Make it scale with distance lmaaaoooo
With the new katana u can hit flying enemy's below you with the crit
Yea Iron Staff is kinda crap... Scarecrow Sickles for me it's close to S tier, I love playing it in survival builds as my main dps tool
can we get much higher
He does know armodillopack exists right?
serenade is less of a skill and more of a main weapon. it can shred bosses when used at its full potential.
thanks for the vid
How dare you disrespect the mushroom boy he can break every bone in your body just like kicking you into the wall that or the Spartan sandal they do the same thing but you can potentially have 2 mushroom boy
Also Buff Lantern to have a hold function like Katana, to fire souls after an alternative melee hit. Then kill rhythm it to build up souls with the primary combo.
damn, cannot believe i got my first win with a d-tier weapon lol
serenade is s cos of the glitch
Iron Staff S tier cause monkey stick.
Nah fam serenade can MELT bosses
dam u talk loud in this vid.
