Honorable mention to Beads of Fealty for being a free potential pearl, since getting a pearl from any other lunar means taking something away from your build, or dealing with a downside you otherwise wouldn't care for for a while
salute to those eclipse players that don't have beads in their lunar item pool o7
@@Cap_that's what happened on my first eclipse run, tried to get beads for pearls. Learned that REAL quick

One thing about Tonic that I feel goes overlooked is that even with permanent uptime, when Mithrix takes your items, your tonic will run out as you don't have the items you need to keep it up. And when it does run out, you will receive tonic afflictions based on how many times your items activated it over the course of the stage. It can be very crippling in a phase where you already have all your items taken away.
One time I on purpose made a build with maximum equip cooldown reduction with tonic, I got 70k afflictions :D
If you play phase 4 aggresively it's not really an issue. No matter how unlucky you are with the timing you will get one full duration of tonic(you get 2 if you time the phase 3 kill correct), and he's extremely easy to beat while you still have the tonic effect. Usually i get all the afflictions after mithrix is already dead and then it doesn't matter much.
Good thing there is more options then fighting Mythrix.
Boy my merc run where I killed Mythrix then got slammed with 42 afflictions when trying to escape was scary
@@Buglin_Burger7878Not on Eclipse
thanks for including the clips of you consuming during the sponsor that was pretty cool
mukbang
Consuming? Dude inhaled it 😂😂
I feel like the easiest and most sensible way to fix Tonic would be to have each stack of affliction reduce the length of the tonic effect. Simulates a real addiction and makes using it an actual risk
A gesture of the drowned would still break it in that case though
@@BritOfADrag what about 100% chance to reduce duration (logarithmicly) and it's applied on activation, not on expiration. that way to keep full uptime you constantly need more gestures/fuel cells until you reach rounding errors
@@ThePizzabrothersGaming I love that premise. It turns the comfort of 100% tonic uptime into a desperate, feverish need to keep chasing the dragon. You'd be running around at the speed of sound, melting every enemy you see - but instead of feeling good about it, you'd be thinking: _"Shit, I need a fuel cell! Where is it? If I don't find one in the next 2 minutes, I'm screwed! C'mon, game, work with me, WORK WITH ME!!"_
And that feels _much_ more in line with the fantasy of tweaking on an incredibly powerful drug. Especially since there's actually a way to fail at outrunning the consequences.
@@Drekromancermakes Soulbound Catalyst super useful with infinite uptime lol

Congrats on getting sponsored! Your content has really helped me improve at the game
It's always nice to just have an intro less than 5 seconds but it's a hell of a powermove to get right into the topic the second the video starts
Tonic is also way stronger than it is on paper because its multiplication not addition so one soldiers syringe gives you 22.5% attack speed per syringe instead of just giving you a flat 70% more attack speed buff like warhorn, and it does this for all the buffs if gives
25,5%*
Essence of Heresy is like the most perfect skill for commando ever. Synergize s with his very fast attack speed, procs bands well (somethign commando struggles with), and replaces both his shitty specials
Fuck commando
@@lucasbeck1391 I love my favorite commando special phase blast! It’s definitely not a secondary!
@@lucasbeck1391 he means Suppressive Fire and Frag Grenade, not the Secondaries. Though yeah Hooks of Heresy is *also* pretty good on Commando lmao
The less commando you can play - the better
@@DiabloOGM72 he literally said "phase blast is ok"
stacking strides of heresy only increases duration not cooldown unlike the other heresy items. it’s actually pretty nice to have 2 or 3 for a near full heal
Its pretty bad when you need a get-out-of-jail-free-card but the cooldown is 20+ seconds
@@franciscopetrucci the cooldown is only 6 seconds
I got hit by a car but spinal tonic allowed me to walk away and see my kids again
i really enjoyed the unhinged gaze of my favorite grandpa while drinking a scrumptious smoothie. 10/10 will watch again
One thing to note with Spinel Tonic is that there is currently a bug in the game where tonic afflictions are accrued when while your uptime is permanent. This is only a problem when you fight Mithrix Phase 4, but trust me when I say fighting him with 14 tonic afflictions is not fun.
Sick
I'm pretty sure that's not a bug, it's an intentional downside to using tonic. The afflictions are calculated every time each individual activation of the equipment runs out, even if you don't actually gain them until the effect is gone. It makes it so that you can only fight mithrix with tonic up, and you can't swap equipments safely without using a blast shower
At that point you just need to hit him as fast as you can to get your shells back and get back on the tonic
like flopfish says, that's supposed to happen. but the real bug is that all your affliction stats get removed on level transition. if you don't want the spinel tonic anymore but don't want to be smashed with 50 afflictions, just try to quickly find a new equipment item at the beginning of the next stage; easily done at the bazaar.
8:25 I personally enjoy Shaped Glass and I find that it really adds fun because of the risk of dying in one shot while dealing so much damage
Sorry to complain but could you cut back on the long-winded intros? You started by saying "number ten", but you could have just said "ten", since it's obvious from context that it's a "numbered" list.
Yeah When he said number I already left the video. Way too long of a intro
I think he can totally throw out the entire beginning, just show a picture of all the lunar items and say “ten”. That’s all the info I need. Cut all the mush mouth
It's been almost a year, and we have yet to see someone whining that you should have denoted your comment with an "/s". This community is pretty cool.
Honestly, clicking on the video itself is way too much and really drags things on, maybe beaming the information into my brain would help this massive issue.
Strides of Heresy always has a 6 second cooldown (after the ability ends) regardless of its stacks.
Also, Hooks of Heresy is honestly super underrated. It's a bit awkward to use, but the damage output is insane and rooting enemies is really powerful.
Hooks is always my preference on Captain.
More because I can't stand the taser, but I learned to get really good at using hooks since I took it every run.
Transcendence also allowing for permanent plasma shrimp uptime which is insane... and i think the honorable mention should go to the shrine of order its a real one that has crashed my game with 5 iridescent pearls, 4 icbms, 6 charged perfs, 13 kjaros bands, and 30 fireworks
Glad you're getting sponsors, king. Keep it up
But disputed,,,, the bird is a girl,,!!!,,,,,,,,,
That's why she's so powerful, it's balanced because most RoR2 players are terrified of women
@@Kokolitofora to be fair the two hard hitter survivors are female yeah ofc anyone reasonable would be scared of them 😭
@@Kokolitofora yes
@@RayleeRaven567Rail Gunner goes brrrrrrrrrr
It's an it. Now both sides are happy
At this point I've completely stopped using lunar items in my eclipse runs, they just make everything so easy.
agree, though i still take them if they happen to appear on the overworld. i just avoid taking any lunars in bazaar
likewise, only time i'll pick a lunar up is if there's a pod and a cleansing pool on the same stage so i have a chance at an irradiant pearl
6:04 The sphere size reduction is still 1/8 because before the reduction, half of the sphere was underground anyway.
This is true. In fact, in practice you'll probably end up with slightly less than 1/8th of the volume to work with as the prongs of the teleporter itself will take up a greater proportion of the teleporter zone.
pro tip: to piss of your friends, use gesture of the drowned with glowing meteorite, its really funny
Gotta be real, love that you just jump right into the list with no intro. You know why we’re here and you go right in for it. Love that.
You can avoid the auto recycle is you look away and walk on the item itself that's what I do if I have. love ur vids man keep it up
doesn't mean its good just a trick
Smol correction - you can take more than 200% of your max hp from fall damage on e3, but it's really hard to do in a regular run. If you fall from the Mithrix arena all the way down, for example, you will take quite a bit more than that, I think the highest I managed was 5 times my hp. However, with trimping (especially on acrid), on a test run I accidentally slammed myself and took 100 times my max hp in fall damage :D
I think an item synergy tier list would be interesting a la polylute plimp combos.
I love strides. I usually swap out commando, bandit, and railgunner utilities late game. sometimes artificer and huntress depending what build/items I get. If you get 0 healing items after stage 1 or 2, you can pick one up and have a decent self sustain and dodge.
the druid is threatening to stack 10 corpseblooms on you
You have such a good voice for videos and your editing is really clean and well cut, always a pleasure to watch your vids
Another thing to note about Strides: Void Reavers/Jailers/Devastators literally CANNOT kill you with their on-death implosion, while that item's skill is active. I've done Heretic runs before, and fuckin' hell, did that skill save me from a Game Over..
that sponsorship has gotta be one of the best sponsor reads ive seen in a youtube video
Forgot to mention the downside of eulogy zero being that every blue item would’ve been a red item
Small correction on strides of heresy, stacking it increases healing and duration, not cooldown. I still wouldn't recommend stacking anything more than 2 just because of how clunky the ability will feel to use when it lasts for 9+ seconds
Eulogy Zero finally gets the recognition it deserves. After getting a Mercurial Rachis printer on Siren's call with a cleansing pool while deep in a run, I knew it was GOATed. My friend picked up 5 irradiant pearls before leaving, giving him that sweet plus 50% to all stats. And of course he was running engineer, making it even better for his turrets.
Also I took 14 mercurial rachis for my troubles, making every ally and enemy on the map deal 50% more damage. Even when it isn't good, it's always fun.
Shadowfade cooldown is always 6 seconds, stacking it does not increased that, just duration and amount healed
Eulogy Zero is an always take for me, purely for the reason of one time it turned a white printer into transcendence and it was really funny
So much information I didn't know before this.
My group has basically written off any lunar items but gesture and convergence as too much negative.
Didn't know that transcendence is basically 50 cautious slugs and removes fall damage or that spinel tonic uptime removes the debuff.
[ 3:50 ] The excuse is so bad that it's good
got very happy and excited hearing Total Drag in the background of the video
Shadowfade from strides does not make you invincible, it does essentially deactivate your hitbox, but you can still die from damage over time effects and the void seed bubble.
it also cleanses most debuffs, so this isnt really relevant in most situations except the void stages
@@thepompf2049 It does not cleanse damage over time, it is fairly relevant as Helfire Tincture is commonly used in conjunction, as it avoids the overall damage, but not the brief burn over time after leaving the damage area, however the burn cannot kill on its own, but if another small tick of damage were to occur, you will die.
one thing to note about tonic as well which im surprised you of all people didnt mention is that all the tonic buffs arent just regular percentages, theyre all multiplicitive, which means they multiply off of your other items
Holy shit I love disputed origin!!!! Smash that sub button
I don't think I can... it's greyed out for me..........
Wow just starting the list without explaining what the title already told me thanks!
c418 tsuki no koibumi was nice to hear at the end there
Importantly, luck affects your affliction chance! Use a clover to mostly prevent affliction stacking while you get enough cells/gestures!
Another fun thing to do with tonic-gesture combo is soul-bound catalyst to basically never have to worry about getting the tonic affliction
☕️ issue with the teleporter item are the pillars of design where it becomes almost impossible to do in under 12 hours
these items are why I use a mod to disable rerolling the lunar shop lol
@@shaunhayes3072 Yeah I guess, though I'm putting together a "slightly harder vanilla+" modpack and stuff like that and nuxlar's harder looping mod (I think it was called LoopAugments) fit in nicely instead of just not buying lunars or not looping
You have very vivid and descriptive facial expressions that react to the food you consume 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
its good to see grandpa is eating his vegies like a good granfather should to show those damn funko pop loving grandgids what is good for them
love your bgm choices, some unique picks for sure
I LOVE strides of herasy, but i also completely agree that its not for every class. Loader already has great mobility (both vertical and horizontal) with the rightclick aswell as a passive immunity to fall damage. That and the barrier on hit means health isnt as big an issue when your in the thick of it.
But for someone like commando where the shift ability, the one stides replaces, is just a dash or roll foward. Strides is just a direct upgrade. (Unless your doing that one commando achievement of getto stage 20 with no lunar items lol)
Id argue brittle crown is the best lunar for one reason: Outscaling.
You can full loot stages however you please; waiting for enemy kills for gold is easy. Its also very, very powerful when going all in. Its a no brainer to stack.
Even then, the modifier can be negated. More items means more repulsions and rose bucklers, less incoming damage. Completley nullifying the downside.
Even then, being good at the game nullifies the downside entirley. Sure, in the post-loop it falls off, but that doesnt underestimate the power of getting it stage 2 and turning every run into a god run.
Im surprised that Hooks of Heresy didnt make the list. It's really a no brainier take on a lot of survivors because a lot of secondaries are not that important or even that good, but Hooks are amazing
hooks on captain 👌
Mmmm hooks on rail gunner
Very nice
I thnik you could have insert Egocentrism in 3rd place at well, while its gameplay of corruption is simple, this item can be abused to spam pearls and radient pearls as well.
When mitrix takes away your items- you are stuck with tonic debuf in your inventory. Which can cause a failed run.
Proud to see my boy got a sponsor been here since the 24 hour stage one vid
“Yeah, I’m ‘bout that
He was talking out his head, I put a price on his ballcap”
-Disputed Origin
Another thing about purity (last i remember and tried), stacking purity on mercenary gives you pretty much infinite Special, meaning always invulnerable. Correct me if im wrong, or if it changed
2:09 BOAH HE TEARIN THAT SHIT UP
This is the first time I think I've actually enjoyed the sponsored during a video.
Didn't know there's grandpa jumpscare in the sponsored part.
unironically the first sponsor i have ever considered looking into in my life. good choice of advertising for lazy gamers such as myself
straight into the video, no intro, good youtuber!!!
Bird Boy is the best lunar item
It's bird grill
I was worried watching gramps eat and drink that fast, didn’t know if he could handle it.
More stacks of Strides of Heresy doesn't actually increase it's cooldown it only affects the duration. Great video though!
I mean you don't wanna be stuck in it for too long so it doesn't really help
Focused Convergence makes the bubble zones in Void Locus so bright blue that i can't see much that's right outside. I can't tell if i'll be having a Jailer take my head off in the next 5 seconds.
That aside, thing depends on if you can handle such a smaller area. Void Fields multiplayer becomes pretty dangerous with everyone so close.
One of my favorite combos is 1 shaped glass + 1 corpsebloom on Rex, then get 2-3 medkits and a single backup mag, and boom, build is done. now add in razorwire. Make sure you use the mortar that drains your life instead of that sucky arrow rain.
But it's been a little bit less good ever since they nerfed medkits and added that huge delay on them so I can't spam mortar as fast.
Watching disputed eat and chug a smoothie was very unsettling
Casually downing the smoothie without blinking
A druid was a member of the high-ranking priestly class in ancient Celtic cultures. Druids were religious leaders as well as legal authorities, adjudicators, lorekeepers, medical professionals and political advisors. Druids left no written accounts. While they were reported to have been literate, they are believed to have been prevented by doctrine from recording their knowledge in written form. Their beliefs and practices are attested in some detail by their contemporaries from other cultures, such as the Romans and the Greeks.
Happy 69th video Disputed
Shaped glass can get very op with a god run because you can’t get hit anyways so there is no downside just double damage btw for those who do not know a god run is when you stack fuel cells and gesture of the drowned with blast shower and safer spaces which will infinitely use blast shower resetting safer spaces cooldown to 0 meaning you will block all hits if your someone who likes to become as strong as possible this is the build for you because the only thing that can kill you is mithrix stage 4 or black holes
You're still cranking out banger videos, very nice 👍👍👍👍
Why does your final boss fight look different from mine? Is it a mod? Is it postprocessing turned off?
#2: turns your health better
#1: you are now god
the escapists music gave me so much nostalgia lmao
ego is underrated as fuck
Ego is the best lunar 😎
Where do I see the bit about Eulogy Zero with the poem in 7:20?
is that astral alley from the indie hit game night in the woods??
:3c
Good to see grandpa still has his voracious appetite 👴🪗
I think UA-cam is broken. Video ends right before he says Egocentrism is #1.
I think this guy likes Egocentrism.
@@Shhhhh183 How did you know?
@@The_Egomaniac I’m not sure really, just a good guess.
excited to watch this video about why shaped glass is the best item in the game
grandpa got a sponsor, im so proud
I had this playing in the background while I pack to move out for the first time and the music in video had my messed up
Ive always thought spinel tonic was garbage because i didnt realise the debuff was removed while it was in effect... i am in shambles
Suprised Ego didn't make the list, i'd go as far as to say its in the top 5 of best lunar items.
7:38 meatbun in etg doesn't half your health lmao. it's an active that once used heals for 2 hearts and gives you extra dmg until the next time you take damage.
Can't say i fully agree with the list. Never cared for corpsebloom since i felt the healing limitation wasn't worth and i feel that a couple others can be pretty situational depending on character or items you've gotten. Tonic is a good example since yes in theory it's crazy but if you don't have the right setup for it's downside can be rather crippling and not be worth taking over something else. Maybe I'm just a fool but for the most part i haven't felt that lunars are brain dead broken or anything.
I love the escapists music dude
I recently found out that if you take Eulogy Zero before void fields, enemies might pick up a blue item. Ended up getting vaporized by beetles with egocentrism.
Once got over 100 pearls in a run from egocentrism , it's ridiculously good in longer runs

3:00 Ayo, is this background music from Night in the Woods⁉️
cant believe I caught one of ur videos only a minute after you made it!
disputed, i’ve heard you say in multiple videos that -50% radius is more like 1/4 the volume than 1/8 the volume because half of it is underground, but this is just straight up false. the volume of a hemisphere still goes down by 87.5% when you reduce its radius by half.
