Quick tip for the Hindley + Josephine fight! If you leave 2 assistant butlers alive, Josephine will come, but as long as both the assistant butlers are alive Hindley will not have enough space to join them. This means that you can tank their weaker 1-slots and focus Josephine down first, then take on Hindley without any distractions after!
Yeah I mean I do think they made him a tad too easy (was expecting a phase 2 where he heals back up) but having to reset after going through all of that would be miserable
I do feel compelled to point out, the King in Binds isn't the same thing as the "battle against The King in Binds" for one reason, his very first passive. "Closing of the Banquet: When all retainers are defeated, the King joins the fight." The King in Binds isn't "the fight", it's phase 2 of the fight. The Envy Peccatulum are the first phase of the battle allowing us to prepare for the King himself, which we do see as without them being there to give us Bandages, the King's Present Thyself Before the King would be nearly unstoppable, as well as all the sinking stacked up from it combos extremely dangerously into turn 3-5 against the King, where for three turns in a row he'll keep using abilities that either trigger Sinking Deluge or inflict tremor equal to sinking before bursting it. The battle against the King himself is definitely entirely theatrical, as everything in the railway is thematically building up to encountering him. But the "challenge" of the fight is phase 1, rather than phase 2, so the King himself being rather weak isn't exactly wrong, but it's a bit like saying the Golden Apple's first phase is easy. Sure technically, but that isn't the entire fight, so why judge the whole Abno based on just one phase's difficulty? The Forgery stage is an absolute nightmare to deal with for one core reason. I made the mistake of taking out Rhinosault very early on. As a result of that, as well as targeting down WDon to prevent any Telepole usage, and WRyoushu since her S2 and S3 are so dangerous, the only Id left that could actually gain charge was Kcorp Hong Lu. For whatever cruel twist of fate, he decided to start spamming Dimension Shredder, meaning not only was he constantly getting +2 haste from using it the turn after, but then he'd gain a lot of charge, allowing Rhinosault's passive to trigger on him granting him higher max speed ranges. There were 2 turns where Hong Lu had a speed of at least 2 higher than my fastest sinner, and chose to use Dimension Shredder yet again, leading to moments where I was praying to whatever God is out there listening that a 30-ish SP Hong Lu rolls tails, while my Sinner with like 20SP from all the EGO I had to spam had to roll heads. That entire stage is evil... Though I really hope this railway finally teaches people that 7Outis was never "bad" or got powercrept in the first place. While her S3 is definitely quite weak, rolling a 14, and needing 7+ rupture to become a 20 roll, her S1 literally can not lose against anything 8 or lower and rolls a 12 on heads, while her S2 casually rolls a 17 unconditionally with just two coins, meaning it's extremely hard for her to actually lose a clash against non-Ego with it. Add onto that all the various debuffs she applies, her 5-8 speed range, and fairly tanky HP pool, and she's a real pain in the ass for enemies to deal with. On your team, add in her passive+To Pathos Mathos' passive, and her damage output also becomes extremely high, especially since she has such excellent coverage of slash and blunt damage, with EGOs also letting her deal tons of pierce too. She's really under-rated as an ID, and too many people look at her weak S3 and call her bad for it. I'd much rather have an ID with such excellent S1 and S2, which you'll see way more often during battle, than one that has a "meh" S1/2 but a strong S3.
7 outis rolls lower than molar on all skills when accounting for offense level, and molar doesnt need to worry about her s1s because discard. Good minimums are nice but rarely relevant.
@@Gamblore101 evades run on very different rules than attack skills, high minimum on evade is especially good because it makes it less luck needed to evade a large number of attacks on low sp. also i said rarely, not never. fishmael is an exception
Mfw Section 1 takes basically the other 3 section turns combined Edit: One thing that helps in RR4 a lot is Ryoshu new WAW Ego, it kills N Corp enemies in section 2 with Blind Obssesion from Ishmael in 1 turn and ramps up your ego resource count by a fuck ton
Also, surprisingly enough, TT Hong Lu has been a huge help for players, it seems. Due to Mutilate being an additional two for one deal skill and S2 being an insane mid/low health unstaggered finisher. Plus his Teth and HE EGOs are really nice as well for many situations in this Railway. One player has managed to clear in 39 turns heavily using him in a railway.
I'm honestly shocked I only corroded a single Envy Peccatulum considering I ran a sinking team (it was Dimension Shredder Yi Sang in Forgery). I did end up losing a single clash against the King's deluge skill near the end of the fight which caused the absolute GOAT Mariachi Sinclair to show up (I had absolutely no intention of using backup so I didn't care about order) and he finished the fight with Pañata Party. I do hope you end up streaming the W Corp event when it goes live even if there will inevitably be the annoying chatters, although I completely understand if you don't
Okay, so, about the Sheep. Just for those who are skeptical about any "low turn speedrun" tactics or whatever - Using T Don against it is fully worth it. Tremoring it up in general can speed up what's otherwise a slog of a fight to an insane degree. You don't even need Yuro Hong Lu, since most of the benefit comes from using Cavernous Wailing and applying Reverb - which is cool considering that, despite pierce not being great against the peccatula wave, Tingtang Hong Lu is just an insanely valuable unit throughout the whole Railway. Same goes for Faust and Everlasting, however, Regret Faust is just so insanely valuable against the previous wave as well, considering her attack weight and the Plus Coin Drop she's got, so, if you've got her or can get a support of her, she's a huge recommend. I'd say the same for Molar Outis, in my opinion one of the best blunt units in the game, just due to Discard diff. Applying Time Moratorium to the sheep, then getting off a Reverb into Everlasting is nigh guaranteed to nuke the sheep. If you get lucky with the skills, and throw in an Outis skill 3 for three tremor bursts (which isn't as hard with her discard), you can absolutely obliterate the sheep in 3-4 turns without much effort. It *WILL* just explode in a deluge of funny numbers popping up on your screen. The only problem there is that using those egos + making the fight so much shorter will leave you with less EGO resources, and the other problem is Don's Moratorium being a bit finnicky - requiring you to either have some Tremor on the enemy already so she can activate it - or using her guard to enter her zoomies state, then making sure she's got her skill 3 ready while she's stimming. Oh, and yeah, make sure to pay attention and not override Tremor - Reverb with Don's Tremor - Chain, if you use them in the same turn and for whatever reason he's going faster. Naturally, all of this applies to the King in Binds as well, once again letting you almost skip his whole unclashable big attack gimmick and just watch him explode 3 turns in.
42:20 Adamantine armor pieces generally give more stats so it's good if you are doing armor mixing, but full melee titanium armor is especially good for fetid facetanking. I wouldn't say titanium is strictly better tho, adamantine does have its niches
I still like titanium armour more, because it basically fits every class in a cool way. If you are meele/summoner you can use projectiles from it to deal more dmg, but while playing mage or ranged, these projectiles can knock away enemies rushing into your face.
Remembering how much bad speed ranges became an issue with some of the Worst Team... I'm sure RR4 will be juicy. Other than the mandatory 'Ooh, RR4 Worst Team is going to be mental' comment, this is a good guide. Even though I did RR4 day 1 it was still nice to watch as it was informative and entertaining- keep up the good work. To answer the questions at the end: - I liked the Railway a lot, it's probably my favourite. I didn't find the turn count target difficult, which is probably the biggest contributer as there was on stress there. I know that if I needed to stress and restart for turn count I would also be despising the wave/section mechanic with a burning passion. But, as it is, I liked it. And the Envy Shadow Clones are really cool and I look forward to seeing more, and can't wait to see the potential they have in future- even if my soul leaves my body every time I see them pull out the one of the big scary EGOs we like to spam. - I ran through blind with all the W Corp and R Corp IDs (R Corp Mersault obviously) at max level and Uptie 4. I don't remember the support IDs I had as I never got to them. For me it went smoothly and I got a respectable 85 turns first try, same as I got for Railway 3 after I went for the target actually.
The 5% hp is Best put on either your tank (duh) or rodion (which is both if you're using dieci) because it increases the healing from pursuance (and also because no one else would really have a real use for it) which is one of THE best clashers in the game while being relatively cheap, only costing 2 resources, one being like the most common one in the game and the other being not TOO hard to come by in decent amounts
this was the first ESGOO video I've ever seen, and that intro was still hilarious😂 Now i just wish there was a parody version of this video where the envy peccatulum doesn't get killed at the start, keeps up the bit for like 20 minutes, blatantly lies about everything, and and offers only the worst strategies possible "Check out this format, it's super linear, so you don't have to worry about the format at all, it barely changes your playstyle. Booyah! The most notable difference is you only get to bring 12 sinners, and only 6 are on the field at any given time, so you'll want to deal with those enemies asap. That's why I'd recommend bringing branch of knowledge to get those one turn kills in!"
"And for healing, I'd recommend Lifetime Stew Sinclair. If you hit heads you get decent healing, while tails gives you precious sin resources amp, helping you fuel other egos! What's better, its healing depends on your Sinclair's max HP, so with a tanky id and the 5% hp buff he can really reach insane levels of healing for your team! Arguably one of the best healing EGO of all time!"
Personally I'm not a huge fan of using Blind Obsession in stage 4, as it's passive gives a sinner 5 sinking every turn, which can be very problematic. Also perhaps an unpopular opinion, but personally I'm not particularly interested in seeing worst-team Railway 4; it was a fun novelty for railway 2, but railway 3 was just pure suffering, and I think your time could be much better spent on other topics that I would be more interested in. If you want to do it for "fun" then go ahead, just don't feel obligated.
No, I'm with you on this one. It was an enjoyable novelty at first, but the RR3 version of the worst ID/EGO run looked like absolute hell to deal with.
I really think rr4 will go the same way, multiple hours of complete hell and then eventually having to give up and make concessions leaving no one with a satisfying conclusion
[2:56] The amount of HP you get actually depends on the ID - and no, it's not just because some IDs have higher max HP. Every single ID has an "HP scaling" stat in the game data that defines how much HP they gain per level - this is completely independent from how much HP they have at level 1. _Generally,_ IDs with higher starting HP have higher HP scaling, but there are a few edge cases, such as Seven Faust having abnormally low HP scaling compared to her base HP.
Ryoshu's Awe EGO is surprisingly useful here, not so much for the damage, but pulling it as early as possible in Section 1(especially if you are going with a BL team that will drown you in Pride and little anything else) and turn 1 in Section 2 will guarantee you will rack up tons of EGO resources, in my case Gluttony, by the time Forgery turns around.
40:45 Well, you should put a warning in there that if a sinner dies in the check, that sinner will not be replaced and you hafe to fight the Sheep with only 5 Sinners! It kinda just slowly killed me.
I haven't played Limbus for a while, and after doing Canto 6 I jumped into this Railway completely blind... that was certainly an experience. An experience most painful.
That 'downclashing' strategy you mentioned is something I did a LOT while playing Library of Ruina and it honestly felt so rewarding to be able to express that skill I gained here.
I will say I went full tremor team, being all tremor ids both on the field and back up. It was rather fun and REALLY useful when it came to consistently keep at least some of my enemies staggered. It honestly made me glad we don't face many tremor based enemies because I was routinely able to completely ignore resistances and stagger them before they became a problem. The day we get an envy fight based around tremor I'll be dumping ego into making sure regret faust doesn't get off her S3 or S2.
I've only done sections 1 & 2 so far but I like the long-form wave battle with backup, really plays into the "throw sinners at the wall" strategy that occasionally comes up in the story. I found it pretty fun to play with when it clicked in the last wave of section 2 after losing a clash to Sunshower Yi Sang and getting decimated but having the backup sinners come in ready for clean up and getting everything back at the rest stop was cool.
Currently going through the railway, and as of this comment.. i got past part 2. part 1, i tried over a lot before getting through the first 2 parts.. and, as you said, Nelly wasn't an issue. part 2, i got through without losing anyone after a few resets due to ego usage and big scary red attack from N-claire. I did have to use ego in the first wave but i got through with only sevens faust close to death. taking a break for now to keep myself from overthinking before going in to section 3, which is where i will stop, cause i want the tickets mostly. i did get through railway 3's fights thanks to your guide too, but didn't finish the railway fully due to personal accomplishment being full after the ahab fight. thank you again for the guide as it really does help motivate me to keep on trying and push through, even if i don't have everything really that optimized or have any dieci ID besides Yi Sang. as for the inevitable worst team video.. i wish you the best of luck and the best RNG imaginable so you aren't torturing yourself through it all.
this has been my favorite rr so far, the envy pecca were a unique challange that were immensely enjoyable for me. i wish the abno battles (especially king in binds) were harder but man they were cool
Honestly this railway was so much more fun for me because all the segments were together instead of individual fights. That along with fighting our own id's that can also use ego was insanely fun.
enemy sunshower heathcliff corroded into telepole twice in my RR run hitting only his allies, carried the run together with T don almost dying twice for my greed
My favorite part of Section 3 was Envy Hong Lu corrupting into soda and exclusively targeting his whole team. Would be really cool to get an envy pecatulum pack in mirror dungeon since they weren't really hard in RR4 but they were pretty cool to fight against and would probably pose much more of a challenge with MD buffs.
This was the first railway i actually reset fights in and i loved it, probably my favorite Railway we've had so far mechanically (Though my favourite in general is still RR3) but i am kind of disappointed we didn't get to fight Earlking and Wife again, i was looking forward to that. Also I desperately hope that Chain Battle or something like it without the buffs, enemy reinforcements, and ESPECIALLY enemy Res and Owned Passives become standard in story content etc because they make the fights super engaging imo. Bare minimum they'll almost certainly come back when we eventually fight other E.G.O users which is SO INCREDIBLY EXCITING. Also 42:21 nice Terraria reference.
23:49 I don't think it's mentioned in this video, but it's important to note that the +2 Max Speed buff will _not_ help you on turn 1, which the recent patch notes revealed (or you might have noticed yourself, if you were particularly perceptive). Much like the issue with resource gain on death, they've decided to address this by changing the label instead of fixing it.
My strat for dealing with Nclair was Kimsault's S3, he not only survives Self-Destructive Purge with half his HP left even if it lands all Tails, but his counter also oneshots Nclair as long as it hits a single Heads in one of the first 2 coins, just an instant way to make the fight so much easier. In the defense of this cheese I did beat the entire Railway with purely the Boys Love team (yes including Outis)
Farming gloom (and not only gloom) with use of doomsday clock is useful That's why i ran 4 burn ids, maidshu and diecilu on my second run and it went pretty well P. S in section 1 i mean Full on bl team was what i usef on first run but due to 3 gloom and very little of anything that's not pride i had at end rest of run went horribly
This railway was absolutely a form of “lesson” PM is intending to teach us. The thing we need to learn being how to clash down powerful effects so sinners can stagger the ego user
I can't believe I'm giving Limbus even this much, but gotta admit, this Railway was ALMOST fun to play! Incredible, can't wait for what Project Moon has in store next....
34:24 also, his passive activates under an HP threshold, so, if you can get him to just above 20% HP, and then kill him in a single hit, he *will* die.
This was the first railway that I completed in under 100 turns. Thank you sinking team for lowering sanity in most of the fights, but not corroding anyone except the Meursault that targeted his own team. Edit: also thank you zwei Sinclair for facing the generator and losing.
What I found most effective on Forgery and Adamantine Wall is to be very aggressive with aoe ego and just try to spray out damage early. Your goal is get stagger multiple enemies quickly and maintain a balance between how many enemies you kill (who get replaced) and how many you stagger. This lets you use your skill slots to freely set up the next turn and react to any nonsense going on instead of being trapped between a bunch of often-too-fast-to-redirect attacks.
Backup mechanic is actually really fun and flowerful. It will make a lot of sense for limbus to have it by default, given how much our sinners die during the story. I feel like this railway will make me want it back once it is gone, It has a lot less problems with overly tenkey enemy's, and unlike previous railways i actually feel like replaying it.
My first run of rr4 was 79 turns and my second run was 75 turns, both before you uploaded, and both zero deaths. After watching this I'm going to try a third run using magic bullet outis on the team and also reconfiguring my sinners for support passives more than substitutes, since I was never gonna use the subs anyway
Maybe now that we have the mechanic, we'll see Envy peccatula fights that aren't going all-out with super-strong EGO, IDs, and starting flush with resources and sanity. Maybe a fun story fight against the base IDs, or a 6v6 that uses the sinners you didn't deploy.
Just beat this railway after starting to play earlier this month, as someone who has Dieci hong lu I agree he carries so hard not just where slash is the main damage type but throughout the whole railway.
Last 3 units, Dieci Rodion and 2 (sttagered) base sinners (i was really out of my depth here), boss with 76 health, Rodion skill 3 comes up, (Favored is the best i could get), Rodion hits for 78 damage!!!! Railway 4 is done!!! (my first ever Refraction Railway btw) Thanks so much for your guide, it really saved me in all pf the encounters hahaha
Ngl, as someone that's got all the Tremor IDs and Time Moratorium stuff, Time Moratorium felt absolutely busted on the abno fights. I kept seeing a number of people complain about Dreaming Electric Sheep taking so long, but for me it was literally 3-4 Turn Kill (I never got to see what happened when it had 3 charge plugs on it since it died too quickly to Time Moratorium damage and I think a load of Tremor-Reverb damage)
I tried improving my round count after watching the very short but entertaining guide and I can now say: The king in binds can be a nightmare for that magical 5% tails chance. Cinq Outis losing her skill 3 against the sinking deluge skill and losing 86 Sanity at once -> King in binds E.G.O staggers 4 of my allies and she had 7 speed; went second from all my characters -> King in binds whips out his 4 high damage/atk weight skills -> fun It wasn't a roundender but it did take out momentum mssively, making me choose to restart. Also lost some 45 Sanity coins on other tries that decreased sanity (not nearly that drastic) and was really annoying at times...
im a big fan of this railway honestly. its like those bossfights in videogames where they really suck to play but after youve beaten it and are left to think about it, it becomes way better in hindsight. i did this railway with a full tremor setup for all the stages and it really does feel designed around that for speed as it got me a 57 turn run.Like the stage 1 portrait only does the portrait phase when it goes below 80% so if youre able to tag on time moratorium before that you can kinda nuke it down really quickly. but if you speedrun fights youre not gonna have resources by stage 3 so thats like ice soup. but once the first wave of stage 3 was over tremor actually just demolishes sheep and its a similar deal with the bind guy on stage 4. oh yeah important thing to note with tremor is that all the abno fights have 1 body part and like 4-6 attacks per turn so you can use dons guard to stack 12 tremor potency per turn if the targeting's right which is about as good as a lccb ish s2 without needing bullets.
the hardest part about this railway was that maintenance ended at 11 pm est, so taking less risks and more careful turns meant i was doing forgery while sleep deprived but man, this was still probably the most fun I've had doing railway anyway
I loved this railway in terms of the thematics (especially the final boss). The wave format does take away some control over team picks and I especially dislike having to manage SP so much (Fluid Sac carried). I went with an Unga-Bunga team that mostly remained unchanged, however many of my choices were suboptimal…ESPECIALLY the sheep fight…I completely ignored the Plugged In mechanic, once I realized it it was dying after I brute forced through the protection. I didn’t restart because I didn’t want to go through the peccatulum again…but that certainly raised my turn count by a lot. Got a 72 turn even with that so I’m satisfied.
You can also intentionally not clash the E.G.O users, and focus them with your Sinners who rolled the same speed as the ennemy, and pray for the fact that you either stagger them or kill them before the E.G.O usage. It genuinely helped me a lot to complete this railway. I personally like this way of gambling outside of the clash. Also, since I used a Nagel Und Hammer team, using Self-destructive purge, I killed Blade Lineage Mentor Meursault first turn.
Im sure they will. but i hope the envy peccatulum will be in MD, they prolly wont make MD anymore hard, but they will make it more interesting i feel especialy if PM also makes it they get thier own EGO gifts, they will prolly have it that the envy pecca teams will then be based around the theme pack (so like if you pick a bleed themed pack you will fight a bleed peccatula team and if you pick the blade lineage event you will have to fight the BL team) But i do hope they will also have envy peccatula fights in MD where its just purely random, random IDs, random EGOs, random support passives and random EGO gifts.
Dreaming Electric Sheep is such an easy time sponge, that my first time going through Forgery I only escaped with TWO ID's left, and those 2 ID's still got Electric Sheep to Half Health because it's just /really easy./
was kinda surprised you didn't go over the durante special being able to be used once a section in RR4 instead of once a day which can be pretty useful especially since speed is such a problem in this railway, excellent video though
I just balled using the same team setup I used for the whole Railway. Sure I had some deaths, but that brung in some of my backups that swept the floor after. The King in Binds was my only worry, especially due to that AoE skill, but I mainly didn’t have to worry on that front.
I first tried this like day 1 or 2 with a team that was like a quarter level 40 and every backup was 30 or under (like a fool, I planned on not dying) got 72 in that run, N corp without N Don, and instead Liu Ryoshu. Backup was only for supports for N corp team. Only time I had a lot of trouble was section 1 (for reasons) and section 3 because I ran out of momentum (ego resources) Advice I can give is as follows: If E.G.O spam is killing your sinners, stagger the offending enemy before they E.G.O or use an E.G.O that rolls higher (difficult I know) to clash them into oblivion. anyways that aside I watched the whole video, I really like hearing people talk about Pmoon mechanics... love esgoo videos
Generally my advice is to use offsets instead of ego spam at every opportunity. 1 sinners one-side attacking on Envy-Faust about to use everlasting with 3-coin skills to stagger her before she clashes with the sinner she was targeting just piling on extra damage is a lot more effective than using an ego and (while winning the clash) dealing 19 damage because of resistances and leaving her to try the same bullshit again the following turn. Trust me, you can afford to eat R-Corp Meursault's skill 1 you do not need to clash with every single fucking thing in this game lol. Im glad Esgoo covered this strategy.
somehow beat this railway first try with basically no issues at all in exactly 100 turns? i don't know what i did to deserve such a perfect run but hey! we take it.
Hello ESGOO, I am currently playing through RR4, and when doing the sheep fight and reaching the check, I tried to fail it, as recommended by the guide, and so I used Sunshower, 16 Sanity, "Very Low", and managed to pass, just to find out that it actually DECREASES CLASH POWER BY 2 if you pass the check. Was this a mistake?
I don't care that I finished RR4 2 times before a video came out. Amazing guide as always. AOE EGO are definetly MVP of this rr and one thing I wish you mentioned is their targeting. Should've shown how it is possible to chose the targets of 3 atk weight EGO for it to stagger/kill additional enemies. Anyways, can't wait for the worst team RR4. Since every ID can be both fielded and support teambuilding will be much more interesting.
Tbh section 3 wasn't so bad for me but section 4 peccatula were actual hell, my highest rolling ego that I have is pursuance on rodya but I ran out of sloth, so I had to pray that binds could outroll their EGOs (it seldom did). Even if it was easy, I was so happy being able to fight the king afterwards with that insane boss theme, felt well earned. Favourite railway so far, even if rng was a complete massacre (20 SP envy peccatula are just inexplicably more likely to roll heads)
I got 82 on my first playthrough. Need to find the time for more. I ran Tremor, sinking Then generic goodstuff for the last 2 It was so much fun and im happy the Abnormalities were kinda easy since the Envy Peccatula were rough *looking at you Forgery* but on the whole i loved this a railway it was just soooo much fun.

Quick tip for the Hindley + Josephine fight!
If you leave 2 assistant butlers alive, Josephine will come, but as long as both the assistant butlers are alive Hindley will not have enough space to join them. This means that you can tank their weaker 1-slots and focus Josephine down first, then take on Hindley without any distractions after!
Yes ! On my first run I didn't have the issue of fighting them both because of this trick and got to the end of the section in 20 turns
This is what I did, this is so much easier then fighting Hindley and Josephine at the same time.

Yeah I mean I do think they made him a tad too easy (was expecting a phase 2 where he heals back up) but having to reset after going through all of that would be miserable
I do feel compelled to point out, the King in Binds isn't the same thing as the "battle against The King in Binds" for one reason, his very first passive. "Closing of the Banquet: When all retainers are defeated, the King joins the fight." The King in Binds isn't "the fight", it's phase 2 of the fight. The Envy Peccatulum are the first phase of the battle allowing us to prepare for the King himself, which we do see as without them being there to give us Bandages, the King's Present Thyself Before the King would be nearly unstoppable, as well as all the sinking stacked up from it combos extremely dangerously into turn 3-5 against the King, where for three turns in a row he'll keep using abilities that either trigger Sinking Deluge or inflict tremor equal to sinking before bursting it.
The battle against the King himself is definitely entirely theatrical, as everything in the railway is thematically building up to encountering him. But the "challenge" of the fight is phase 1, rather than phase 2, so the King himself being rather weak isn't exactly wrong, but it's a bit like saying the Golden Apple's first phase is easy. Sure technically, but that isn't the entire fight, so why judge the whole Abno based on just one phase's difficulty?
The Forgery stage is an absolute nightmare to deal with for one core reason. I made the mistake of taking out Rhinosault very early on. As a result of that, as well as targeting down WDon to prevent any Telepole usage, and WRyoushu since her S2 and S3 are so dangerous, the only Id left that could actually gain charge was Kcorp Hong Lu. For whatever cruel twist of fate, he decided to start spamming Dimension Shredder, meaning not only was he constantly getting +2 haste from using it the turn after, but then he'd gain a lot of charge, allowing Rhinosault's passive to trigger on him granting him higher max speed ranges. There were 2 turns where Hong Lu had a speed of at least 2 higher than my fastest sinner, and chose to use Dimension Shredder yet again, leading to moments where I was praying to whatever God is out there listening that a 30-ish SP Hong Lu rolls tails, while my Sinner with like 20SP from all the EGO I had to spam had to roll heads. That entire stage is evil...
Though I really hope this railway finally teaches people that 7Outis was never "bad" or got powercrept in the first place. While her S3 is definitely quite weak, rolling a 14, and needing 7+ rupture to become a 20 roll, her S1 literally can not lose against anything 8 or lower and rolls a 12 on heads, while her S2 casually rolls a 17 unconditionally with just two coins, meaning it's extremely hard for her to actually lose a clash against non-Ego with it. Add onto that all the various debuffs she applies, her 5-8 speed range, and fairly tanky HP pool, and she's a real pain in the ass for enemies to deal with. On your team, add in her passive+To Pathos Mathos' passive, and her damage output also becomes extremely high, especially since she has such excellent coverage of slash and blunt damage, with EGOs also letting her deal tons of pierce too.
She's really under-rated as an ID, and too many people look at her weak S3 and call her bad for it. I'd much rather have an ID with such excellent S1 and S2, which you'll see way more often during battle, than one that has a "meh" S1/2 but a strong S3.
7 outis rolls lower than molar on all skills when accounting for offense level, and molar doesnt need to worry about her s1s because discard. Good minimums are nice but rarely relevant.

OH MY GOD ITS HIT UA-camR ESGOO FROM HIT CHANNEL ESGOO KNOWN FOR HIT GACHA GAME LIMBUS COMPANY
I will never forgive that sheep thanks to the skill check managing to wipe the last few remains of my team on my first run, truely peak Limbus overall
Mfw Section 1 takes basically the other 3 section turns combined
Edit: One thing that helps in RR4 a lot is Ryoshu new WAW Ego, it kills N Corp enemies in section 2 with Blind Obssesion from Ishmael in 1 turn and ramps up your ego resource count by a fuck ton
Also, surprisingly enough, TT Hong Lu has been a huge help for players, it seems. Due to Mutilate being an additional two for one deal skill and S2 being an insane mid/low health unstaggered finisher. Plus his Teth and HE EGOs are really nice as well for many situations in this Railway.
One player has managed to clear in 39 turns heavily using him in a railway.
I saw him wipe one of the envy’s with his s2 and it was like when the game released for me. Luck correlates with skill and I’m fucking winning big.
I literally only beat section 4 the FIRST try after putting him in. He was like, my 2nd guy on release, too (first guy being bunnycliff ofc)
Got 69 turns on my first try, im now obligated to not try for a better turn count, will watch the guide anyway, love your videos.
I'm honestly shocked I only corroded a single Envy Peccatulum considering I ran a sinking team (it was Dimension Shredder Yi Sang in Forgery). I did end up losing a single clash against the King's deluge skill near the end of the fight which caused the absolute GOAT Mariachi Sinclair to show up (I had absolutely no intention of using backup so I didn't care about order) and he finished the fight with Pañata Party.
I do hope you end up streaming the W Corp event when it goes live even if there will inevitably be the annoying chatters, although I completely understand if you don't
I don't ran sinking team and there heathcliff always corroded and ALWAYS TARGET MY SINNER
Okay, so, about the Sheep. Just for those who are skeptical about any "low turn speedrun" tactics or whatever - Using T Don against it is fully worth it.
Tremoring it up in general can speed up what's otherwise a slog of a fight to an insane degree. You don't even need Yuro Hong Lu, since most of the benefit comes from using Cavernous Wailing and applying Reverb - which is cool considering that, despite pierce not being great against the peccatula wave, Tingtang Hong Lu is just an insanely valuable unit throughout the whole Railway. Same goes for Faust and Everlasting, however, Regret Faust is just so insanely valuable against the previous wave as well, considering her attack weight and the Plus Coin Drop she's got, so, if you've got her or can get a support of her, she's a huge recommend. I'd say the same for Molar Outis, in my opinion one of the best blunt units in the game, just due to Discard diff.
Applying Time Moratorium to the sheep, then getting off a Reverb into Everlasting is nigh guaranteed to nuke the sheep. If you get lucky with the skills, and throw in an Outis skill 3 for three tremor bursts (which isn't as hard with her discard), you can absolutely obliterate the sheep in 3-4 turns without much effort. It *WILL* just explode in a deluge of funny numbers popping up on your screen.
The only problem there is that using those egos + making the fight so much shorter will leave you with less EGO resources, and the other problem is Don's Moratorium being a bit finnicky - requiring you to either have some Tremor on the enemy already so she can activate it - or using her guard to enter her zoomies state, then making sure she's got her skill 3 ready while she's stimming. Oh, and yeah, make sure to pay attention and not override Tremor - Reverb with Don's Tremor - Chain, if you use them in the same turn and for whatever reason he's going faster.
Naturally, all of this applies to the King in Binds as well, once again letting you almost skip his whole unclashable big attack gimmick and just watch him explode 3 turns in.

When I first saw the Envy Peccatulums, I thought, "I wonder if this is pvp testing"

Adamantine armor pieces generally give more stats so it's good if you are doing armor mixing, but full melee titanium armor is especially good for fetid facetanking. I wouldn't say titanium is strictly better tho, adamantine does have its niches
I still like titanium armour more, because it basically fits every class in a cool way. If you are meele/summoner you can use projectiles from it to deal more dmg, but while playing mage or ranged, these projectiles can knock away enemies rushing into your face.
what?
@@depthvorpa4460 ha ha poor little soul unaware of terraria…
I'm so glad potential man is in this railway so I can make him pay for constantly selling when I decide to bring him on my team
I'm overwhelmed! This is just too much! 😮
Pick 6 best ids in the game and fucking roll
Remembering how much bad speed ranges became an issue with some of the Worst Team... I'm sure RR4 will be juicy.
Other than the mandatory 'Ooh, RR4 Worst Team is going to be mental' comment, this is a good guide. Even though I did RR4 day 1 it was still nice to watch as it was informative and entertaining- keep up the good work.
To answer the questions at the end:
- I liked the Railway a lot, it's probably my favourite. I didn't find the turn count target difficult, which is probably the biggest contributer as there was on stress there. I know that if I needed to stress and restart for turn count I would also be despising the wave/section mechanic with a burning passion. But, as it is, I liked it. And the Envy Shadow Clones are really cool and I look forward to seeing more, and can't wait to see the potential they have in future- even if my soul leaves my body every time I see them pull out the one of the big scary EGOs we like to spam.
- I ran through blind with all the W Corp and R Corp IDs (R Corp Mersault obviously) at max level and Uptie 4. I don't remember the support IDs I had as I never got to them. For me it went smoothly and I got a respectable 85 turns first try, same as I got for Railway 3 after I went for the target actually.
The 5% hp is Best put on either your tank (duh) or rodion (which is both if you're using dieci) because it increases the healing from pursuance (and also because no one else would really have a real use for it) which is one of THE best clashers in the game while being relatively cheap, only costing 2 resources, one being like the most common one in the game and the other being not TOO hard to come by in decent amounts
This guide was the only reason I was willing to try refraction railway. And I finally beat it! Thank you ESGOO!!!
My strat for Forgery was just spamming Rime Shank as much as I could. Sinking is peak.
this was the first ESGOO video I've ever seen, and that intro was still hilarious😂
Now i just wish there was a parody version of this video where the envy peccatulum doesn't get killed at the start, keeps up the bit for like 20 minutes, blatantly lies about everything, and and offers only the worst strategies possible
"Check out this format, it's super linear, so you don't have to worry about the format at all, it barely changes your playstyle. Booyah!
The most notable difference is you only get to bring 12 sinners, and only 6 are on the field at any given time, so you'll want to deal with those enemies asap. That's why I'd recommend bringing branch of knowledge to get those one turn kills in!"
"And for healing, I'd recommend Lifetime Stew Sinclair. If you hit heads you get decent healing, while tails gives you precious sin resources amp, helping you fuel other egos! What's better, its healing depends on your Sinclair's max HP, so with a tanky id and the 5% hp buff he can really reach insane levels of healing for your team! Arguably one of the best healing EGO of all time!"
This actually helped. So much... I was able to beat the railway at 90 turns. (I totally didn't hate limbus for hours on end)
Thanks very much. I've won under 100 turns due to this guide.
Personally I'm not a huge fan of using Blind Obsession in stage 4, as it's passive gives a sinner 5 sinking every turn, which can be very problematic.
Also perhaps an unpopular opinion, but personally I'm not particularly interested in seeing worst-team Railway 4; it was a fun novelty for railway 2, but railway 3 was just pure suffering, and I think your time could be much better spent on other topics that I would be more interested in. If you want to do it for "fun" then go ahead, just don't feel obligated.
No, I'm with you on this one. It was an enjoyable novelty at first, but the RR3 version of the worst ID/EGO run looked like absolute hell to deal with.
I really think rr4 will go the same way, multiple hours of complete hell and then eventually having to give up and make concessions leaving no one with a satisfying conclusion
How to beat RR4:
Step 1: bring Ebony apple Outis
Step 2: …
Step 3: profit
Ebony Apple Outis?
Did i Miss one? I only have Ebony stem
all I remember from this event is spamming ego
Woe
Sunshower be upon ye
@@oliverbergen3559it’s the same thing
@@oliverbergen3559
That’s what I meant, I’m just stupid
[2:56] The amount of HP you get actually depends on the ID - and no, it's not just because some IDs have higher max HP.
Every single ID has an "HP scaling" stat in the game data that defines how much HP they gain per level - this is completely independent from how much HP they have at level 1.
_Generally,_ IDs with higher starting HP have higher HP scaling, but there are a few edge cases, such as Seven Faust having abnormally low HP scaling compared to her base HP.
Ryoshu's Awe EGO is surprisingly useful here, not so much for the damage, but pulling it as early as possible in Section 1(especially if you are going with a BL team that will drown you in Pride and little anything else) and turn 1 in Section 2 will guarantee you will rack up tons of EGO resources, in my case Gluttony, by the time Forgery turns around.
I hate the sheep so much, it just crushes my hope whenever I reach it
40:45 Well, you should put a warning in there that if a sinner dies in the check, that sinner will not be replaced and you hafe to fight the Sheep with only 5 Sinners! It kinda just slowly killed me.
appreciate the Terraria reference, very cool
I haven't played Limbus for a while, and after doing Canto 6 I jumped into this Railway completely blind... that was certainly an experience. An experience most painful.
That 'downclashing' strategy you mentioned is something I did a LOT while playing Library of Ruina and it honestly felt so rewarding to be able to express that skill I gained here.
I will say I went full tremor team, being all tremor ids both on the field and back up. It was rather fun and REALLY useful when it came to consistently keep at least some of my enemies staggered. It honestly made me glad we don't face many tremor based enemies because I was routinely able to completely ignore resistances and stagger them before they became a problem. The day we get an envy fight based around tremor I'll be dumping ego into making sure regret faust doesn't get off her S3 or S2.
Got it in 97 turns finally, I can't believe how much harder Forgery was than the actual King.
I've only done sections 1 & 2 so far but I like the long-form wave battle with backup, really plays into the "throw sinners at the wall" strategy that occasionally comes up in the story. I found it pretty fun to play with when it clicked in the last wave of section 2 after losing a clash to Sunshower Yi Sang and getting decimated but having the backup sinners come in ready for clean up and getting everything back at the rest stop was cool.
Currently going through the railway, and as of this comment.. i got past part 2. part 1, i tried over a lot before getting through the first 2 parts.. and, as you said, Nelly wasn't an issue. part 2, i got through without losing anyone after a few resets due to ego usage and big scary red attack from N-claire. I did have to use ego in the first wave but i got through with only sevens faust close to death. taking a break for now to keep myself from overthinking before going in to section 3, which is where i will stop, cause i want the tickets mostly. i did get through railway 3's fights thanks to your guide too, but didn't finish the railway fully due to personal accomplishment being full after the ahab fight. thank you again for the guide as it really does help motivate me to keep on trying and push through, even if i don't have everything really that optimized or have any dieci ID besides Yi Sang.
as for the inevitable worst team video.. i wish you the best of luck and the best RNG imaginable so you aren't torturing yourself through it all.
this has been my favorite rr so far, the envy pecca were a unique challange that were immensely enjoyable for me. i wish the abno battles (especially king in binds) were harder but man they were cool
Honestly this railway was so much more fun for me because all the segments were together instead of individual fights. That along with fighting our own id's that can also use ego was insanely fun.
enemy sunshower heathcliff corroded into telepole twice in my RR run hitting only his allies, carried the run together with T don almost dying twice for my greed
My favorite part of Section 3 was Envy Hong Lu corrupting into soda and exclusively targeting his whole team. Would be really cool to get an envy pecatulum pack in mirror dungeon since they weren't really hard in RR4 but they were pretty cool to fight against and would probably pose much more of a challenge with MD buffs.
This was the first railway i actually reset fights in and i loved it, probably my favorite Railway we've had so far mechanically (Though my favourite in general is still RR3) but i am kind of disappointed we didn't get to fight Earlking and Wife again, i was looking forward to that.
Also I desperately hope that Chain Battle or something like it without the buffs, enemy reinforcements, and ESPECIALLY enemy Res and Owned Passives become standard in story content etc because they make the fights super engaging imo.
Bare minimum they'll almost certainly come back when we eventually fight other E.G.O users which is SO INCREDIBLY EXCITING.
Also 42:21 nice Terraria reference.
42:20 sorry ESGOO, but I am an Adamantite fan. Titanium is cool and all, but I like my +20% melee and movement speed.
I did this Railway with an Envy team and absolutely loved it.
LETS GO ESGOONERS ITS TIME FOR MORE CONTENT WAHOOOO
23:49 I don't think it's mentioned in this video, but it's important to note that the +2 Max Speed buff will _not_ help you on turn 1, which the recent patch notes revealed (or you might have noticed yourself, if you were particularly perceptive). Much like the issue with resource gain on death, they've decided to address this by changing the label instead of fixing it.
My strat for dealing with Nclair was Kimsault's S3, he not only survives Self-Destructive Purge with half his HP left even if it lands all Tails, but his counter also oneshots Nclair as long as it hits a single Heads in one of the first 2 coins, just an instant way to make the fight so much easier. In the defense of this cheese I did beat the entire Railway with purely the Boys Love team (yes including Outis)
this place is nuts
Farming gloom (and not only gloom) with use of doomsday clock is useful
That's why i ran 4 burn ids, maidshu and diecilu on my second run and it went pretty well
P. S in section 1 i mean
Full on bl team was what i usef on first run but due to 3 gloom and very little of anything that's not pride i had at end rest of run went horribly
This railway was absolutely a form of “lesson” PM is intending to teach us. The thing we need to learn being how to clash down powerful effects so sinners can stagger the ego user
I can't believe I'm giving Limbus even this much, but gotta admit, this Railway was ALMOST fun to play! Incredible, can't wait for what Project Moon has in store next....
Thank you lord ESGOO, you have fed us with this guide that I shall consume even though I cleared RR4 with less than 100 turns
thank you king esgoo, you made me win the railway and also made me realize how dumb i am when it comes to reading
34:24 also, his passive activates under an HP threshold, so, if you can get him to just above 20% HP, and then kill him in a single hit, he *will* die.
This was the first railway that I completed in under 100 turns. Thank you sinking team for lowering sanity in most of the fights, but not corroding anyone except the Meursault that targeted his own team.
Edit: also thank you zwei Sinclair for facing the generator and losing.
I'd say that the biggest takeaway from this railway would be...
Envy peccatula in MD5 with ego gifts. May jihoon have mercy on our souls
bro idek if I would do MD if that was present
Already cleared, still ganna watch🔥
Honestly I always struggled with the Envy bros so seeing this guide, hell yeah I'm using the strategies
What I found most effective on Forgery and Adamantine Wall is to be very aggressive with aoe ego and just try to spray out damage early. Your goal is get stagger multiple enemies quickly and maintain a balance between how many enemies you kill (who get replaced) and how many you stagger. This lets you use your skill slots to freely set up the next turn and react to any nonsense going on instead of being trapped between a bunch of often-too-fast-to-redirect attacks.
Backup mechanic is actually really fun and flowerful. It will make a lot of sense for limbus to have it by default, given how much our sinners die during the story.
I feel like this railway will make me want it back once it is gone, It has a lot less problems with overly tenkey enemy's, and unlike previous railways i actually feel like replaying it.
My first run of rr4 was 79 turns and my second run was 75 turns, both before you uploaded, and both zero deaths. After watching this I'm going to try a third run using magic bullet outis on the team and also reconfiguring my sinners for support passives more than substitutes, since I was never gonna use the subs anyway
Maybe now that we have the mechanic, we'll see Envy peccatula fights that aren't going all-out with super-strong EGO, IDs, and starting flush with resources and sanity. Maybe a fun story fight against the base IDs, or a 6v6 that uses the sinners you didn't deploy.
24:55 the ghost of pride slash past lives on
Just beat this railway after starting to play earlier this month, as someone who has Dieci hong lu I agree he carries so hard not just where slash is the main damage type but throughout the whole railway.
Last 3 units, Dieci Rodion and 2 (sttagered) base sinners (i was really out of my depth here), boss with 76 health, Rodion skill 3 comes up, (Favored is the best i could get), Rodion hits for 78 damage!!!! Railway 4 is done!!! (my first ever Refraction Railway btw)
Thanks so much for your guide, it really saved me in all pf the encounters hahaha
I absolutly loved this railway and I really want the envy peccatulum and backup mechanic to show up again.
Love watching these cause even if I’m not too far theoretically from having high enough ids, I never feel big brain enough to try haha
Ngl, as someone that's got all the Tremor IDs and Time Moratorium stuff, Time Moratorium felt absolutely busted on the abno fights. I kept seeing a number of people complain about Dreaming Electric Sheep taking so long, but for me it was literally 3-4 Turn Kill (I never got to see what happened when it had 3 charge plugs on it since it died too quickly to Time Moratorium damage and I think a load of Tremor-Reverb damage)
I tried improving my round count after watching the very short but entertaining guide and I can now say: The king in binds can be a nightmare for that magical 5% tails chance.
Cinq Outis losing her skill 3 against the sinking deluge skill and losing 86 Sanity at once
-> King in binds E.G.O staggers 4 of my allies and she had 7 speed; went second from all my characters
-> King in binds whips out his 4 high damage/atk weight skills
-> fun
It wasn't a roundender but it did take out momentum mssively, making me choose to restart.
Also lost some 45 Sanity coins on other tries that decreased sanity (not nearly that drastic) and was really annoying at times...
I cant believe that Designated Sinner #5 Meursault has killed Esgoo from Esgoo UA-cam
thank you very much ^^ I have finaly beat it in 77 turn.
im a big fan of this railway honestly. its like those bossfights in videogames where they really suck to play but after youve beaten it and are left to think about it, it becomes way better in hindsight. i did this railway with a full tremor setup for all the stages and it really does feel designed around that for speed as it got me a 57 turn run.Like the stage 1 portrait only does the portrait phase when it goes below 80% so if youre able to tag on time moratorium before that you can kinda nuke it down really quickly. but if you speedrun fights youre not gonna have resources by stage 3 so thats like ice soup. but once the first wave of stage 3 was over tremor actually just demolishes sheep and its a similar deal with the bind guy on stage 4.
oh yeah important thing to note with tremor is that all the abno fights have 1 body part and like 4-6 attacks per turn so you can use dons guard to stack 12 tremor potency per turn if the targeting's right which is about as good as a lccb ish s2 without needing bullets.
Californian-French speaking- glasses wearing-theater kid guy!!!
This place is nuts!
sunshower heathcliff in section 4 is so funny here... i know they meant to put earlking there but man thats a funny overshadow for his kit
the hardest part about this railway was that maintenance ended at 11 pm est, so taking less risks and more careful turns meant i was doing forgery while sleep deprived
but man, this was still probably the most fun I've had doing railway anyway
I loved this railway in terms of the thematics (especially the final boss).
The wave format does take away some control over team picks and I especially dislike having to manage SP so much (Fluid Sac carried).
I went with an Unga-Bunga team that mostly remained unchanged, however many of my choices were suboptimal…ESPECIALLY the sheep fight…I completely ignored the Plugged In mechanic, once I realized it it was dying after I brute forced through the protection.
I didn’t restart because I didn’t want to go through the peccatulum again…but that certainly raised my turn count by a lot.
Got a 72 turn even with that so I’m satisfied.
71 turns first try just hearing you in the back lol thanks for the guide
Charge id Outis
(next will be charge gregor and rodya)
We are so back with this one
It's a bit sad to see people hating the high speed enemies. I had an absolute blast having to play more defensively around the high speed ranges.
You can also intentionally not clash the E.G.O users, and focus them with your Sinners who rolled the same speed as the ennemy, and pray for the fact that you either stagger them or kill them before the E.G.O usage. It genuinely helped me a lot to complete this railway. I personally like this way of gambling outside of the clash.
Also, since I used a Nagel Und Hammer team, using Self-destructive purge, I killed Blade Lineage Mentor Meursault first turn.
terraria reference spotted. amazing editing as usual
Im sure they will. but i hope the envy peccatulum will be in MD, they prolly wont make MD anymore hard, but they will make it more interesting i feel especialy if PM also makes it they get thier own EGO gifts, they will prolly have it that the envy pecca teams will then be based around the theme pack (so like if you pick a bleed themed pack you will fight a bleed peccatula team and if you pick the blade lineage event you will have to fight the BL team) But i do hope they will also have envy peccatula fights in MD where its just purely random, random IDs, random EGOs, random support passives and random EGO gifts.
bro no
THANK GOD IVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU
Dreaming Electric Sheep is such an easy time sponge, that my first time going through Forgery I only escaped with TWO ID's left, and those 2 ID's still got Electric Sheep to Half Health because it's just /really easy./
was kinda surprised you didn't go over the durante special being able to be used once a section in RR4 instead of once a day which can be pretty useful especially since speed is such a problem in this railway, excellent video though
I just balled using the same team setup I used for the whole Railway. Sure I had some deaths, but that brung in some of my backups that swept the floor after. The King in Binds was my only worry, especially due to that AoE skill, but I mainly didn’t have to worry on that front.
I first tried this like day 1 or 2 with a team that was like a quarter level 40 and every backup was 30 or under (like a fool, I planned on not dying)
got 72 in that run, N corp without N Don, and instead Liu Ryoshu. Backup was only for supports for N corp team.
Only time I had a lot of trouble was section 1 (for reasons) and section 3 because I ran out of momentum (ego resources)
Advice I can give is as follows:
If E.G.O spam is killing your sinners, stagger the offending enemy before they E.G.O or use an E.G.O that rolls higher (difficult I know) to clash them into oblivion.
anyways that aside I watched the whole video, I really like hearing people talk about Pmoon mechanics... love esgoo videos
Generally my advice is to use offsets instead of ego spam at every opportunity. 1 sinners one-side attacking on Envy-Faust about to use everlasting with 3-coin skills to stagger her before she clashes with the sinner she was targeting just piling on extra damage is a lot more effective than using an ego and (while winning the clash) dealing 19 damage because of resistances and leaving her to try the same bullshit again the following turn. Trust me, you can afford to eat R-Corp Meursault's skill 1 you do not need to clash with every single fucking thing in this game lol. Im glad Esgoo covered this strategy.
i will delusionally believe the Cinq IDs were put in the Adamantine Wall segment for the Sinking pun (Cinq-King)
somehow beat this railway first try with basically no issues at all in exactly 100 turns? i don't know what i did to deserve such a perfect run but hey! we take it.
Hello ESGOO, I am currently playing through RR4, and when doing the sheep fight and reaching the check, I tried to fail it, as recommended by the guide, and so I used Sunshower, 16 Sanity, "Very Low", and managed to pass, just to find out that it actually DECREASES CLASH POWER BY 2 if you pass the check. Was this a mistake?
Winning Sheep event encounter actually makes the winner take 15 Envy Damage and the Sheep also LOSES 2 Clash Power 40:32
I don't care that I finished RR4 2 times before a video came out. Amazing guide as always. AOE EGO are definetly MVP of this rr and one thing I wish you mentioned is their targeting. Should've shown how it is possible to chose the targets of 3 atk weight EGO for it to stagger/kill additional enemies.
Anyways, can't wait for the worst team RR4. Since every ID can be both fielded and support teambuilding will be much more interesting.
Tbh section 3 wasn't so bad for me but section 4 peccatula were actual hell, my highest rolling ego that I have is pursuance on rodya but I ran out of sloth, so I had to pray that binds could outroll their EGOs (it seldom did). Even if it was easy, I was so happy being able to fight the king afterwards with that insane boss theme, felt well earned. Favourite railway so far, even if rng was a complete massacre (20 SP envy peccatula are just inexplicably more likely to roll heads)
I got 82 on my first playthrough. Need to find the time for more.
I ran Tremor,
sinking
Then generic goodstuff for the last 2
It was so much fun and im happy the Abnormalities were kinda easy since the Envy Peccatula were rough *looking at you Forgery* but on the whole i loved this a railway it was just soooo much fun.
