Small nitpick, are you an idiot? Loaders charge punch adores less cooldown. By default you have to wait several seconds after using it before you can start charging it. Lessening that is a massive force multiplier.
On bandit if u use Desperado with brain stalks u can effectively have a semi auto weapon that gains 10percent dammage per kill also a semi auto that deals base 600 percent , it's pretty busted
@@jaronwilliams3534 Just got finished trying this. I'm confident with dropping my HP to 1 for that run. Eliminated Mithrix in 4 cumulative seconds (at least it felt like) with the items I had. Jesus. Purity + Alien Head + Shaped Glass + Eviscerate = Win.
I tried experimenting with Happiest Mask, was playing with Artifact of Command. Stacked a few clovers. Spawned a friendly Mithrix after his second phase fight. He finished the third phase for me. Died to a Void Reaver on the way back to the ship. 10/10 run.
I did a 2:40 min run with mercenary, I dashed into a dead reaver charging the ship, I had his mastery skin, it got deleted and was doing the run to get it again, it hurt that it happened

@@MrRukrio1 It goes really crazy with soulbound catalyst. Adding ceremonial daggers makes it the best equipment in the game.

Artificer is another character who gets CRACKED with Purity. even with just one you can feel the effects of it making your M1 that much more spammable, and as a CD dependant character you want that. Acrid can also benefit since his M2 has a very quick cooldown with his acid spit and just one of them turns it rapid fire.
he went over it in the video, he doesnt like purity+artificer because he is a 4head and takes flamethrower, with flamethrower you have a perfect cd rotation anyway. though acrid is a good point
5:42 the iconic risk of rain characters we got commando, huntress, engineer, artificer, loader, acrid, captain, goku, mul-t. The normal characters, no mods.
For Death Mark, you forgot to mention Artificer. She can have three different status effects just from her loadout. Also for Focus Crystal, it's about the same range as her Flamethrower.
Another one is Forgive Me Please. Get a Ceremonial Dagger with it and a Gesture of the Drowned, and you pretty much have periods where nothing can touch you.
You can also generate ungodly amounts of gold this way because the book works with Forgive me please. You can also get insane healing from necklaces and desk plants and reset your cooldowns with the bandolier.
I was gonna say Huntress is already a nutty survivor and brainstalks is busted on her. Rapid-fire Glaive, Insta-Blinks, and Mini-Gun Ballista? Yes please.
8:06 Hey! Mercenary also applies a debuff with Expose! It's absolutely worth mentioning. Even though Expose gets cleared quickly by follow up attacks, it still counts as a debuff which will activate the "marked for death" debuff for 7 seconds (x stack number).
baby guide for unlocking secondary colours for survivors, if you are bad: 2 fuel cells + soulbound catalyst + forgive me please carries you the most out of everything in a monsoon + command artifact run just look for 1 large chest on stage 1 if you see none, then restart if you see one and open it and its a green item, then restart if its a red (soulbound catalyst), you basically only need to get 1 equipment to make it work (forgive me please) and then 2 greens (fuel cells) you then basically have 3 dolls permanantly out if you know the timing to throw 3 new ones just stack on-kill items prioritize at least 3-6 topaz branches another trick is to get a few ghors tomes for money so its faster you can even make a huge pile of gold in one spot during teleporter event if the boss is already dead, then interact with the teleporter, and when you turn blue and the warping sound starts quickly collect everything to transfer a lot of gold to the next stage
This build ruined RoR2 for me! I found it myself earlier this year. Soulbound Catalyst + Forgive Me Please truly is an auto-win, game-plays-itself combo that works on any character. It's worth mentioning that, after ensuring survivability, turning all greens and whites into Will-o-the-Wisps and Crowbars respectively will maximize the chance that you one-shot enemies the moment they spawn in. Also, Gesture of the Drowned makes the combo come online even faster and it's easy to get as long as you have lunar coins (and the game plays itself afterwards, too).
Further note, and yeah, I'm late If you have lunar coins to spare, and Artifact of Sacrifice, grind out 5 Green Items in stage one and try to get a Newt Altar. With Command, you can use the Five Greens (preferably Regen Scrap) to get a guaranteed Legendary every visit. If you're unlucky and don't get a red drop, then at least you're guaranteed it later. If you do, it just means you get Catalyst and Dagger easily.
Man, rnd's math is something else. Bungus - 4.5% regen twice is 9.5%? Crowbar - You deal 150% damage, not MORE damage. So 1 is a death mark, not triple. Focus Crystal - For every focus crystal you're doing 15% extra damage is wrong. If you already have , say 10, the change from 250% to 265% is only 6% more damage.
Would have expected to see "Forgive me please" : Gestures + fuel cells for activation uptime, then comes the funny part : - Monster tooth, fresh meat : gets you healed. Add Topaz barrier and/or Aegis : permanent full barrier - Gasoline, wil'o'wisp : makes lot of damage. Add ceremonial dagger to it : you can go AFK. - Gorh's tome, Well you basically have all the money you'll ever need. - you can add that Frost aura legendarry item while less interesting, it's still something that will be triggered - For even more uptime : Soulbound catalyst (actually one of these, then one gesture is enough and the more fuel cell you have, the more puppets you can have active at the same time) - And as additional bonus : It drops Lunar Coins. Really many conditions before it gets really op, but that was the point of the video I believe :p
Even better with the newly added Planula, that basically turns all burn ticks into healing: throw in Aegis, N'kuhana's opinion, and the game basically plays on auto
Another note about Spinel Tonic: The chance of getting afflictions is affected by luck. So uh, probably don't take it if you're rocking 4 purity unless you have 100% uptime.
ngl this might be a dumb one but transcendence and aegis work really really well, you get both the insane HP boost from transcendence, and the healing effects from scythe and all other stuff
Forgive Me Please gets ridiculous late game. I remember a run beyond level 99 and stage 20 or so + where once I activated Forgive Me Please once, everything started dying all around the map. Bonus: A fun combo with artifacts you can do is Swarm and Sacrifice, I always also pick Vengeance because its nice to get a duplicate item or so. Bonus bonus: If you use Artifact of Vengeance and play the Engineer. If you kill the engineer first after he places turrets you can get items from the turrets aswell, just be careful if you go with the Burstling Fungus build, those turrets tend to become indestructable.
Imagine correcting someone and being wrong. Spinel Tonic is a tonic and not a gem. If you had said something about focus crystal which DOES resemble said gem then sure. However... Spinel Tonic as it is a drug made to resemble a yee olde tonic it is likely a play on a old spine tonic or similar tonic designed to strengthen the back and make you work longer harder stronger faster. These tonics generally contained high amounts of milk of the poppy(an opiate) to get the user high and being high would not notice issues as much then again being high while not noticing such issues said person would indeed work harder longer stronger as well as faster. (Opium dens were considered medicinal for a long long time due to this common misconception that just because you dont feel it somehow means it went away) However the resulting affliction from not utilizing the drug was horrible as it is literally just heroin effectively. So now you have all the issues you had plus a growing addiction to a drug constantly chasing the high.
As a loader main I love the braistalks, obviously gotta get some more attack speed for that charge but as long as you keep the flow going with good movement you can target any elite in a crowd with the charge bc it pierces(or avoid all this and use thunder gauntlet and just have rapid punching for a bit)
Maxing crit and using barbed wire with scythes is a nice combo too, (or just barbed wire and leeching seeds) especially if you pair it with hellfire tincture to guarantee rapidly triggering barbed wire. Planula also pairs very well with hellfire tincture - if you get repulsor armor plates to reduce the hellfire damage to 1, you'll effectively heal at least 14 hp per tick.
100% uptime jade elephant with some repulsion armors, literaly everything in the game starts doing 1 damage (on that same note rose buckler makes repulsion armor way more vaible to the late game as well, basicly all armor items)
brainstalks is actually really good on engineer. it lets you be a lot more active with the placement of your turrets and even if they're doing fine it resets their cooldown so you can plop them both down immediately if they break, particularly in eclipse with the starting hp penalty
Currently my favorite OP combo is Hellfire Tincture + Teddy Bears... On its own it is relatively strong but couple it with a razor wire or two and you become a walking machine gun nest that murders enemies from afar or up close depending on your preference. Get a few fuel cells and you can do it 100% of the time lol. If you really want to go into OP mode just toss on a topaz brooch and generate additional shielding for yourself.
I once did a MUL-T run where I got Silence Between Two Strikes on the auto-nailgun. Every single shot (even shots that miss) had AOE. Pair that with spinel tonic or soldier’s syringes and it’s such a good time. That was the most fun I’ve ever had playing MUL-T.
ngl Silence between Two Strikes is my favorite elite item because its basically a delayed brilliant behemoth, the shields are nice early game too, lategame its not as good tho but oh man what an item
Blast shower with gesture and stack fuel cells. You can’t be affected by status affects and all cooldowns are basically gone. A lot of items run on cooldowns like void band, safer space, tentabauble, etc. It’s pretty fun.
I'm pretty sure bandit could be considered a strong character. with this info, brain stalks would be busted with his serrated knife, because you could just keep stacking hemmohrage on target(s) for massive bleed damage.
Fun one: did you know that the cooldown for bands counts as a debuff? That means they get cleared out by blast shower. So if you’re playing a character like multi with his crowbar and have several gestures/fuel cells, you can proc bands with almost every shot
blast shower is the strongest item if you have 100% uptime as it A) can save you from status such as burn and bleed but also B) it can reset the cool down on the bands as they count as a debuff, this allows for nutty proc chains with spammed bands
As mentioned by @Alexaction127, Crowbar only increases damage by 50% on the first stack. It multiplies damage by 150%, or 1.5. It does not add 150% damage until you've collected three of them.
I was gonna mention the Spinel (like the gem) vs Spinal thing and then you mentioned it. Out played I have been, overdose on ketamine to regain honor I must.
Rose buckler can also be super good on some non-agile survivors. Loader can sprint in between punches, sprint after starting a grapple, and sprint during her punch charge up because her abilities just cancel her sprint and don't stop her from sprinting. Engineer can sprint during his m1 charge up. And captain can sprint during his m1 charge up. There could be more but those are the ones I know about.
I just want to mention, that Loader makes great use of Rose Buckler too. You can sprint while charging the *BIG PUNCH*, which is when youre slowed and most vulnerable as Loader.
If you combine bustling fungus with Aegis or N'kuhana Opinion it's a complete game changer. Aegis will give your turrets a 2nd health bar and N'kuhana will constantly shoot fireballs. I'm forgetting something important to this combination and it's Razorwire that item will create caos since your turrets are receiving damage every second.
Bandit also likes Focus Crystal, as his default M1 is a shotgun, and he has stealth, he's really good at flanking bosses and magdumping. Even just one, late game, is a 15% multiplier boost, and with enough speed items, it's just free damage.
I would say gesture of the drowned by itself is a pretty good item but you have to get yourself a good equipment wich is not that hard Also talking from captain gang N'kuhana's is great if you get both special healings and so that works with the engineer with bungus B)
Engi with bungus + tusks is pretty much death incarnate. I've played with my BF several times and everytime I've outdamaged him in our runs (even while he's using the new OP Mul-T ult that lets him dual-wield nailguns), it's because I'm using bungus with N'kuhana's. If I use an artifact of vengeance in my run, the only enemy that can actually kill me is my umbral engineer if we both have this item. This combo is broken. Beyond broken. Transcendent even.
Bandit with alternative special slaps with crowbars too, because you build up your stacks on the stage, then with crowbars you get crazy damage increase. That paired with something like crit glasses, shaped glass, or delicate watches, and you can do some crazy damage.
For utility using rose buckler, you may have forgot to mention captain, he can charge his shotgun while sprinting (although he stops sprinting whenever you start charging, but you can just start sprinting again anyways)
I find that brainstalks on huntress is super good but only with ballista, with even a single crowbar you will be oneshotting most lesser enemies, even a lot of elite wips, beetles, and lemurs. Being able to fire ballista like it's a burst rifle feels very powerful.
@@jessepalomo5810 gesture of the drown makes this combo pretty op. Another personal favourite is ice band, gesture and blast shower on rex, every m2 is a nuke and you can spam all day
100% uptime disposable missiles is pretty gross, I had that happen in multiplayer and posted it on my UA-cam. I’ll never get that lucky again lol to get full crit, bleed and equipment cd. My cd was so short that it was taking longer to fire a whole missile pod than to be able to use it again, and they stack until they’re all fired. So when Mithrix steals all ur items, they’re still queued up for however long the gesture has been firing them. Also the infinite rockets at the start of the boss cutscene is pretty funny
I don't know what quality razor wire is but if you get some razor wire matched with some topaz brooch you're pretty good to go from whatever hits you early on, and that fact that it shoots multiple projectiles makes it even better
Razor wire stacking increases range, shaped glass increases damage, helfire tincture does self-damage (and some fuel cells and GotD for 100% uptime). If you can survive to the point where you have enough shaped glass and razorwire, all enemies in existence will take several million damage per second while the tincture is going.
Loader is insane with brainstalks. Regardless of which punch you use you can abuse the cooldowns. The default charge punch charges faster with attack speed which with enough attack speed (usually tonic and maybe some syringes) you can charge it fully in under a second by just tapping it. The other punch automatically releases after about a second which for a 2100% damage move is plenty of spamming with brainstalks even if you only get 4 or 5 off.
my favorite thing to do is to have chaos bottle with that tonic build, it becomes soooooo crazy by the end especially if you get the Benthic Bloom where it might make everything 10x more chaotic
Loader is my favorite character because most things work very well for her, and being in melee with mithrix is a fun time when it only last .1 of a second
I want to point out that the tonic does count the number of times you lose the debuff while you are using it. If you were to for example lose all your gestures in some kind of end game boss fight you may find you get a bunch of debuffs out of nowhere.
@@jax3433 I mean you can still take it into Mithrix the negative afflictions are not active while the buff is. The buff also lasts 20 seconds which should be enough to kill last phase mythrix and get the bulk of your items back. But if you intend to spend a very long time in each individual run you could have a lot of afflictions against you and if you take it into mythrix it could spell the end of your run even before you have a chance to drink again.
I mean... Get disposable rocket launcher, at least 5 energy cells, a Soulbound Catalyst, a Pocket I.C.B.M. and a Gesture of the Drowned. Then watch your FPS dropp to 0 as the game can't keep up with a thousand rockets... marvelous XD

2 fuel cells + soulbound catalyst + forgive me please
carries you the most out of everything in a monsoon + command artifact run
just look for 1 large chest on stage 1
if you see none, then restart
if you see one and open it and its a green item, then restart
if its a red (soulbound catalyst), you basically only need to get 1 equipment to make it work (forgive me please)
and then 2 greens (fuel cells)
you then basically have 3 dolls permanantly out if you know the timing to throw 3 new ones
just stack on-kill items
prioritize at least 3-6 topaz branches
another trick is to get a few ghors tomes for money so its faster

So now you have all the issues you had plus a growing addiction to a drug constantly chasing the high.
17:25 "Look around, founder !" Funny auditive hallucination. x)
As a loader main I love the braistalks, obviously gotta get some more attack speed for that charge but as long as you keep the flow going with good movement you can target any elite in a crowd with the charge bc it pierces(or avoid all this and use thunder gauntlet and just have rapid punching for a bit)
Loader is certified GOATed. No fall dmg, punch is super satisfying. Spiderman all game and thunderslam too gud.
Maxing crit and using barbed wire with scythes is a nice combo too, (or just barbed wire and leeching seeds) especially if you pair it with hellfire tincture to guarantee rapidly triggering barbed wire. Planula also pairs very well with hellfire tincture - if you get repulsor armor plates to reduce the hellfire damage to 1, you'll effectively heal at least 14 hp per tick.
100% uptime jade elephant with some repulsion armors, literaly everything in the game starts doing 1 damage
(on that same note rose buckler makes repulsion armor way more vaible to the late game as well, basicly all armor items)
One might say its even, goated⁉️⁉️
🐐
The g word?!?!
OH GOSH QUICK CENSOR IT
Focus crystal also increases acrids poison damage, so long as you are in range. It also synergizes very well with commandos shotgun secondary.
I broke the game with 100 crowbars, 3h run…I now call the crowbar the diet glass
Yeah, once you oneshot everything anyway it becomes exponentially better with more crowbars ^^
My mate the other day finished a game with 363 crowbars and he got over 10 TRILLION damage dealt..........it was pretty nasty lol
Wait! Crowbars, crowdfunder, and brittle crowns
Oh this, try 50 will of whisps
brainstalks is actually really good on engineer. it lets you be a lot more active with the placement of your turrets and even if they're doing fine it resets their cooldown so you can plop them both down immediately if they break, particularly in eclipse with the starting hp penalty
So glad purity is getting the recognition it deserves
Currently my favorite OP combo is Hellfire Tincture + Teddy Bears...
On its own it is relatively strong but couple it with a razor wire or two and you become a walking machine gun nest that murders enemies from afar or up close depending on your preference.
Get a few fuel cells and you can do it 100% of the time lol.
If you really want to go into OP mode just toss on a topaz brooch and generate additional shielding for yourself.
I once did a MUL-T run where I got Silence Between Two Strikes on the auto-nailgun. Every single shot (even shots that miss) had AOE. Pair that with spinel tonic or soldier’s syringes and it’s such a good time.
That was the most fun I’ve ever had playing MUL-T.
ngl Silence between Two Strikes is my favorite elite item because its basically a delayed brilliant behemoth, the shields are nice early game too, lategame its not as good tho but oh man what an item
Blast shower with gesture and stack fuel cells. You can’t be affected by status affects and all cooldowns are basically gone. A lot of items run on cooldowns like void band, safer space, tentabauble, etc. It’s pretty fun.
I don’t play the game but captain nuke + brainstalks = infinite nuke?
I'm pretty sure bandit could be considered a strong character. with this info, brain stalks would be busted with his serrated knife, because you could just keep stacking hemmohrage on target(s) for massive bleed damage.
Brainstalks Loader flies though, so that's nice.
Fun one: did you know that the cooldown for bands counts as a debuff? That means they get cleared out by blast shower. So if you’re playing a character like multi with his crowbar and have several gestures/fuel cells, you can proc bands with almost every shot
blast shower is the strongest item if you have 100% uptime as it A) can save you from status such as burn and bleed but also B) it can reset the cool down on the bands as they count as a debuff, this allows for nutty proc chains with spammed bands
huh. Did not know it reset the cooldowns of the bands.
@@cymonin5549 what bands
@@nunyaj.business7006 Kjaro's & Runald's bands
3:26 i know im late as hell but those 6 genesis loops you got were crazy
As mentioned by @Alexaction127, Crowbar only increases damage by 50% on the first stack. It multiplies damage by 150%, or 1.5. It does not add 150% damage until you've collected three of them.
ya true. some games when they say 150% damage they mean triple, some games it means a legit 50% increase
@@rndThursday the detail lies in whether you deal 150% more damage or you deal 150% damage
I was gonna mention the Spinel (like the gem) vs Spinal thing and then you mentioned it. Out played I have been, overdose on ketamine to regain honor I must.
9:04 I love going artifact of command to get 20 crowbars and insta-kill everything.
Genesis Loop with mobile Engi turrets. Muhahahaaa.
Jelly weiner does NOT get enough love
engineer with bungus, the horns thing that fire skulls when your healed, the healing rack, and aegis is fucking broken
the contrast between scripted rnd and stream rnd is just hilarious to me and i dont know why
scripted is a strong word xd
Railgunner in the DLC makes crowbars a whole new kind of busted, especially if you find a laser scope to go with it.
definitely
Rose buckler can also be super good on some non-agile survivors. Loader can sprint in between punches, sprint after starting a grapple, and sprint during her punch charge up because her abilities just cancel her sprint and don't stop her from sprinting. Engineer can sprint during his m1 charge up. And captain can sprint during his m1 charge up. There could be more but those are the ones I know about.
You're actually much better than some of the bigger streamers/youtubers I see, I think you are super funny and fun to watch, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
Spinel Tonic logic: "If I never stop drinking then I don't have to worry about a hangover!"
24:27 void fiend also comes with a debuff on his primary fire, so he's pretty alright when it comes to death mark.
I just want to mention, that Loader makes great use of Rose Buckler too. You can sprint while charging the *BIG PUNCH*, which is when youre slowed and most vulnerable as Loader.
You get a shit load of bustling fungus with the happiest mask for your minions to never die. Enough fungus to cover the map
If you combine bustling fungus with Aegis or N'kuhana Opinion it's a complete game changer. Aegis will give your turrets a 2nd health bar and N'kuhana will constantly shoot fireballs. I'm forgetting something important to this combination and it's Razorwire that item will create caos since your turrets are receiving damage every second.
19:15
also (idk if this is still unpatched/ a feature)
but crowdfunder can also shoot if you are in Shadowfade with Strides of Heresy
1:46 bro unknowingly created the Elden Ring with bungus
06:02 engineer as well, he can start loading his lmb and start sprinting at the same time
The real strongest item combo is glowing meteorite, fuel cell, and gesture
Bandit also likes Focus Crystal, as his default M1 is a shotgun, and he has stealth, he's really good at flanking bosses and magdumping. Even just one, late game, is a 15% multiplier boost, and with enough speed items, it's just free damage.
'on the sauce' reminds me of John dies at the end :D great vid!
I would say gesture of the drowned by itself is a pretty good item but you have to get yourself a good equipment wich is not that hard
Also talking from captain gang N'kuhana's is great if you get both special healings and so that works with the engineer with bungus
B)
Engi with bungus + tusks is pretty much death incarnate. I've played with my BF several times and everytime I've outdamaged him in our runs (even while he's using the new OP Mul-T ult that lets him dual-wield nailguns), it's because I'm using bungus with N'kuhana's. If I use an artifact of vengeance in my run, the only enemy that can actually kill me is my umbral engineer if we both have this item.
This combo is broken. Beyond broken. Transcendent even.
you: basically saying merc is crap. me, a merc main: for var element of (random infinite array) print TRIGGERED
Sleep is for nerds, real pogchampions watch rndthursady
Bandit with alternative special slaps with crowbars too, because you build up your stacks on the stage, then with crowbars you get crazy damage increase. That paired with something like crit glasses, shaped glass, or delicate watches, and you can do some crazy damage.
Loader's thunder punch is soooo nutty when you have brainstalks or 4 purity, you just become star platinum
For utility using rose buckler, you may have forgot to mention captain, he can charge his shotgun while sprinting (although he stops sprinting whenever you start charging, but you can just start sprinting again anyways)
I don’t even know this game or you but it was a pleasant surprise, your commentary is concise, detailed and enjoyable.
Thank you recommendations
Ceremonial Dagger + Lens Maker Glasses + Crowbars + razor wire + protections + any on-kill item = do absolutely nothing to win
I find that brainstalks on huntress is super good but only with ballista, with even a single crowbar you will be oneshotting most lesser enemies, even a lot of elite wips, beetles, and lemurs. Being able to fire ballista like it's a burst rifle feels very powerful.
I always do ST as well, but I combine it with the warhorn. Extra attack speed AND steroids? Hell yeah!
Gnarled woodspirit and warhorn is pretty good
@@loafofbread9400 That's... actually really clever. I only run Gnarled once in a blue moon, but I'm going to have to try this out sometime
@@jessepalomo5810 gesture of the drown makes this combo pretty op. Another personal favourite is ice band, gesture and blast shower on rex, every m2 is a nuke and you can spam all day
it's so weird, happiest mask and ghosts in general were insane in ROR1, crazy what an extra dimension will do
100% uptime disposable missiles is pretty gross, I had that happen in multiplayer and posted it on my UA-cam. I’ll never get that lucky again lol to get full crit, bleed and equipment cd. My cd was so short that it was taking longer to fire a whole missile pod than to be able to use it again, and they stack until they’re all fired. So when Mithrix steals all ur items, they’re still queued up for however long the gesture has been firing them. Also the infinite rockets at the start of the boss cutscene is pretty funny
I don't know what quality razor wire is but if you get some razor wire matched with some topaz brooch you're pretty good to go from whatever hits you early on, and that fact that it shoots multiple projectiles makes it even better
Razor wire stacking increases range, shaped glass increases damage, helfire tincture does self-damage (and some fuel cells and GotD for 100% uptime).
If you can survive to the point where you have enough shaped glass and razorwire, all enemies in existence will take several million damage per second while the tincture is going.
Loader is insane with brainstalks. Regardless of which punch you use you can abuse the cooldowns. The default charge punch charges faster with attack speed which with enough attack speed (usually tonic and maybe some syringes) you can charge it fully in under a second by just tapping it. The other punch automatically releases after about a second which for a 2100% damage move is plenty of spamming with brainstalks even if you only get 4 or 5 off.
my favorite thing to do is to have chaos bottle with that tonic build, it becomes soooooo crazy by the end especially if you get the Benthic Bloom where it might make everything 10x more chaotic
Loader with quick punch is sick with brainstalks, you can have up to 3 of the teslas, keep slamming, and grapple if you get knocked away
Loader is my favorite character because most things work very well for her, and being in melee with mithrix is a fun time when it only last .1 of a second
Brainstalks OP but doesn't mention artificer? GOATED
I want to point out that the tonic does count the number of times you lose the debuff while you are using it. If you were to for example lose all your gestures in some kind of end game boss fight you may find you get a bunch of debuffs out of nowhere.
Was looking for this one, was gonna say tonic is great if you always have it up but may not be something you wanna take into eclipse and mithrix
@@jax3433 I mean you can still take it into Mithrix the negative afflictions are not active while the buff is. The buff also lasts 20 seconds which should be enough to kill last phase mythrix and get the bulk of your items back.
But if you intend to spend a very long time in each individual run you could have a lot of afflictions against you and if you take it into mythrix it could spell the end of your run even before you have a chance to drink again.
When stream? (Question totally not related with gambling addiction)
Crowbar with the railgunner is honestly just such a guilty pleasure
An amazing combo I found last night was the soda machine equipment and fireworks. Can interact with it for negligible gold every couple seconds
Engineer's alternative turrets can inflict debuffs, as well. Although you lose bungus potential, you gain marked for death procs
I mean... Get disposable rocket launcher, at least 5 energy cells, a Soulbound Catalyst, a Pocket I.C.B.M. and a Gesture of the Drowned. Then watch your FPS dropp to 0 as the game can't keep up with a thousand rockets... marvelous XD
Death marks damage multiplier also doesn't stack with itself.
“Number 4, death mark”
Me: “I agree, green scrap is very good”
If you have command, engi with 20+ bungus, 1 happiest mask and a few clovers is ridiculous
