also, he's a tanooki, a type of Japanese raccoon. they're known in folklore for having massive balls. seeing as the dlc is based on Japanese culture it checks out
I was actually reading yesterday that the creator, who is Italian, made a lot of the names as a joke in development and kept them when he released the game
The Gold Arcana is 100% broken with a high width weapon, like Garlic, because you continuously gather coin bags and reset your Fever. Plus, it heals you constantly for each gold you get. The HEALING is enough to get you to tank a Guardian.
So I tried Bocce with Cosmo due to their infinite Luck Scaling. Killing Atlantean Guardians in 10 seconds flat with only the Bocce (and a little help from the Auto Birds) feels GREAT.
info time: the character is a tanuki(dog raccoon? smth similar). Tanuki are known for their ability to transform, trickery and their giant balls(yes I mean their nuts). also, since other people are saying his name translates to "deez nuts"... I think that's the theme of the character. -what about playing with bone next time you use this character?-
I feel like for a weapon like this, especially on this character, area is much less important than cool down reduction because there are not multiple projectiles that can overlap and deal double/triple/etc damage (like santa water). Silent old sanctuary is hugely effective on this weapon/character combo
Funny thing is how Dex always is trying to make new builds but in reality he is just switching items around his boogaloo of illusions favorite pick in every video :D
Honestly that's just how it is in this game lol. You find that one item or build and no matter how many times you try to do something new, you always levitate towards that specific build or item. For me, its the Garlic + Bible combo (plus Wand sometimes).
Yeah, this is the crazy weapon. With scaling Might on a Random, I've gotten the damage ticks over 100k at level 2000-something, which beat the prior record I'd had of 40k ticks on Victory Sword. Though I think Victory Sword probably attacks fast enough to yet win out. Still, to rival Victory Sword and have a better early game than Santa Water... these balls are ridiculous.
You should check out Megalo Menya Moonspell, a total bonker character and she has a hidden 108 Bocce weapon which doesn't take any weapon slot and you can still take 108 Bocce from the pool.
Question why do you always play on library? Why not in moonglow with endless mode is just so much free power. (All powerups besides torrona is at starting area) Which makes all builds viable.
He wants to give all the weapons an even playing field when he tests them like this. Library is an easy place to level up quick, and keeps one variable equal between them all.
When I play on Library I do it in videos where I want to have ridiculous values on weapons, which I want in solo limit break videos. The only exception to this is when I have to evolve weapons and waiting until 10 minutes is too long. Library has by miles the highest level potential out of any stages, so it's the best fit for it. It also has a couple of early farm waves, kinda wave 1 to (including) 5 and 8-9. That means you can already scale up Wicked Season super fast for the rest of the run. It's also the only stage I am aware of that has 30 XP mobs, they spawn at 28 minutes (spinach heads) and 29 minutes (all of them).
Hey dude , been following you for a while now, i have a question ; i play it on mobile, right now farming 2b gold takes less time than buying 2b worth of EGG ( i think i've crippled my wrist and fingers of both my hands ) is there a way to buy in bulk?
Hmm, this makes me want to test this weapon for Gold Farming along side Greatest Jubilee. Every other weapon I've tried to add to my farming build and most Arcanas introduce so much lag they actually ruin a run not help it. For reference I have around 1600 hrs now in VS and already have the ability to farm 10's of billions of Gold in a relatively short period of time, (roughly 24 hours of farming should net around 20 Billion+ Gold minimum). I don't mention my hours in game to say I'm some sort of expert, (I'm definitely not), but instead to kind of demonstrate just how much time I've put into testing in game and the amount of hours I've dedicated to this amazing game. Yes some of the hours have been from AFK farming but in total not that many considering a single overnight farm nets me enough Gold to be able to play around and test things for weeks. My only worry with using Boogaloo of Illusions with this character is that he already has an Area Modifier built in and in the past there has been at least one character the Dev made sure that Boogaloo did not work with, Minnah's stat cycling cannot stack with Boogaloo of Illusions (XVIII) as one example. The Dev has already proven that he knows how absolutely busted that would be and has taken steps in the past to assure it just simply doesn't work. I'm definitely going to do some testing though as this weapon looks like a lot of fun and I can't wait to see the damage numbers on a character that has over 45k Curse... Thanks Dex for another extremely entertaining video and the inspiration to do yet more testing in this insanely good game...
He didn't nerf his Luck, you can see on the results screen that the Luck powerup is maxed (3). He wanted it to stay there so that his 108 Bocce would get stronger
@Charles Thanks for translating my comment. Not everyone speaks ball after all... People are strange...(I don't exclude myself here) Oh, and of course i almost forgot: Go, BALLNADO, go! Sorry, i just can't take people serious that write comments like this. Why? Just why? Balls i suppose...
well i dared you to get over 1 billion and you did it. I did not think of trying to deal with the guardian early before the curse built up and waited until way later to grab the silver ring. I might try for 2 bil. This weapon really is just better garlic
There’s a song written by ac/dc called “big balls”…I’m not going anywhere with this comment, just thought that somebody would get a kick out of listening to that while watching this
I tried it a couple of times but it doesnt work in good ways, issue being that enemies get so much curse they just run through bible (a single enemy is enough) and since they are faster than you, you are guaranteed to die and lose all revivals, until it's game over. It only takes 1 enemy or 1 boss to get through, which is kinda guaranteed to happen. The only way I found around that was having freezes on the floor, but it only takes 1 moment of not having one and it's over. Meaning you can't take Wicked Season to do it
I will get more into other games, no worries! I am organizing an upload schedule for me, its a bit tougher with 1 video a day and 5 days a week instead of 2 a day, because it feels a bit like Im missing out if I dont go for the things that people enjoy the most, but there will be more variety :)
Fun fact: McCoy-Oni in Italian sounds like "me cojoni", literally "my nuts" in Italian dialect
also, he's a tanooki, a type of Japanese raccoon. they're known in folklore for having massive balls. seeing as the dlc is based on Japanese culture it checks out
As an Italian i chuckle everytime i hear DEX saying the characters names
The bestiary also says that that's not his tail that he is holding...
Pffft

10:50 "Don't touch me, I didn't consent."
Your commentary sometimes is just on another level, I friggin lost my shit from laughing
The Boning Time video is probably the best thing I have ever seen on YT
Dex can get surprisingly creative with his videos. Like the "MOOSE" one and of course the infamous "Bone" one.

Same!

feeling your "ach, mann!" - danke für das video, werd das gleich mal selbst probieren :) just recently got into one-weapon runs
So I tried Bocce with Cosmo due to their infinite Luck Scaling.
Killing Atlantean Guardians in 10 seconds flat with only the Bocce (and a little help from the Auto Birds) feels GREAT.
I asume that thia character is based on Japanese mythical Tanuki and that "Sack" is its Ball sack.. and i am not kidding
That is part of the legend
Like the studio ghibli movie

Dear Mr.Dex,
I am going to agree with you in this specific topic😎
I feel like for a weapon like this, especially on this character, area is much less important than cool down reduction because there are not multiple projectiles that can overlap and deal double/triple/etc damage (like santa water). Silent old sanctuary is hugely effective on this weapon/character combo
i tried doing this and you just die to elites if you don't have silent old sanctuary as your second arcana
It's both really. I'm not sure which is the greediest best order to pick the arcanas up in.
Funny thing is how Dex always is trying to make new builds but in reality he is just switching items around his boogaloo of illusions favorite pick in every video :D
Honestly that's just how it is in this game lol. You find that one item or build and no matter how many times you try to do something new, you always levitate towards that specific build or item. For me, its the Garlic + Bible combo (plus Wand sometimes).
@@turbosnail6119 yeah, no matter how hard I try I always end up turning every build into insane attack speed
In order to do the ridiculous things, it usually does boil down to taking the giant area per level. That's just how the game works.
GODDAMN HE'S HUGE
This character has already became one of my favourites.
Yeah, this is the crazy weapon. With scaling Might on a Random, I've gotten the damage ticks over 100k at level 2000-something, which beat the prior record I'd had of 40k ticks on Victory Sword. Though I think Victory Sword probably attacks fast enough to yet win out.
Still, to rival Victory Sword and have a better early game than Santa Water... these balls are ridiculous.
Of course a Tanuki uses balls for a weapon xD
Tanuki no Kintama
It's very satisfying to have the vacuums and freezes work out so perfectly, you even got the damage bonus from the last revive.
the firework skill is fun spawns many pickups i like to combine it with victory swoard in mount moonspell and kill flowerfields for massive gooold.
Very strong balls indeed Dex
Balls of Plantinum
@Dex have you seen or played Bio-Prototype? It definitely needs more content, but the core weapon customization is pretty insane and fun.
"the most powerful balls I've ever seen."
Hey Dex, just FYI You're in the Vampire Survivors Credits now! Just in case you aren't yet aware.
Love you when you love youre time spent.

You should check out Megalo Menya Moonspell, a total bonker character and she has a hidden 108 Bocce weapon which doesn't take any weapon slot and you can still take 108 Bocce from the pool.
I still don't understand what it means that she dies when you reach the time limit
@@Volition366 She dies automatically the moment you reach the time limit. Which part don't you get
@@GnesThenic She doesn't die, she just gets bored and quits :D
@@Volition366 At 30min, even in Endless which I checked for silence, just insta death. Until then, invincible of course.
There's not really much interesting content with Megalo Menya IMO... I mean you're just invincible so there's not much to do.
It's amazing to have ginormous balls-Dex

I've never considered Moongollow Endless as a stage, that could be neat.

Yes, in fact, it is nice
quick question, when is the new update coming to mobile?
Hey, have you tried Boneraiser Minions? I think you could be interested in that game.
Hey dude , been following you for a while now, i have a question ; i play it on mobile, right now farming 2b gold takes less time than buying 2b worth of EGG ( i think i've crippled my wrist and fingers of both my hands ) is there a way to buy in bulk?
I have 0 clue of mobile, I think best thing you can do is a super speedy auto clicker, but at those values that'll still take ages.
Why no start with the double Arcana Start? going Wicked Season and Bogaloo?
Enemies have 3x the amount of HP

Bin wohl doch nicht erwachsen geworden...
I wonder if bracer speeds up the bocce plus with the bone 👀 bone and bocce balls?
Bocce works like Soul Eater/Garlic, the balls are just for show. So Bracer wont speed it up.
Where is this weapon in the damage rank list?
Loving the content btw
i saw this watching youtube as playing as mccoy-oni on xbox
can i add an improvement? could you pls add an Arcana List in the subscription? i mean which ones you used at the "succes run"? :D
It's all visible in the results screen at the end, and whenever he pauses
Thanks for the thumbnail, now after me laughing out loud every one else in the waiting room of my doc thinks i'm retarded 😂
Can you unlock this character on mobile?
please how do u skip chests so fast?
Now we need run with giant bones and balls
I wish we could get more arcana or combine a few that we have.
Dex I'm pretty sure luck effects item drops, so actively nerfing your luck may have to do with your lack of NFTs and freezes earlier
He didn't nerf his Luck, you can see on the results screen that the Luck powerup is maxed (3). He wanted it to stay there so that his 108 Bocce would get stronger
I dunno about anyone else, but as soon as I hear the "only x% of people watching these videos are subbed" It seals the fact that I'm not going to sub.
Balls. Balls balls balls, balls. Balls, ballsballsballs balls?
Big Balls! Balls...
Edit: BALLLLLLLLSSSSSsssssss!
Some people forget, your spite is weird.
@Charles Thanks for translating my comment. Not everyone speaks ball after all...

Go, BALLNADO, go!

Ur insane. How can i see the code?
-Garlic butter croissant monkey balls-

16:50 I'm so bad at finding the red jems
Is there a GUTS of berserk like character here?
okay but lvl 1 limit break challenge when?
well i dared you to get over 1 billion and you did it. I did not think of trying to deal with the guardian early before the curse built up and waited until way later to grab the silver ring. I might try for 2 bil. This weapon really is just better garlic
If i remember correctly he even got more than 1trillion once. Lots of reapers, corridor and shroud... And the highest DPS ever Seen in VS(i suppose)
The ball are great it's nice to have big ball
Dex: "Bro, please, stop leveling up"
Also Dex: *Collects more gems*
dex not realizing that the luck got high enough for damage to go up when it doubles around lvl 700 makes me sad
*sniff snoff*
Yep that's balls
ok now i have to buy this funny game
Are you from germany
Yes, he is.
