I'll never not love melting even if he's not the most op. He's the funnest! Lately ive been doing shittons of crown of blood runs with him and just dying constantly but it's hilariously fun. Especially when you hit level 5 before the sewers.

I almost always play Rogue because I'm not good enough. The few times I play as anybody else I get confused why cops don't spawn in mid-level.

Krinku and squerc have been going back to back on new personal bests. I'd almost expect this to be beaten in the next couple days if it weren't already around 6-8 hours per run.

So with Crown of Blood/Melting, you wind up getting more XP due to more enemies that drop the rads, right?

widespread posted:So with Crown of Blood/Melting, you wind up getting more XP due to more enemies that drop the rads, right? Yeah. Do Melting with Crown of Blood from the start, and visit the Cursed Caves too and you'll be Ultra before you even reach the throne. YV is hilarious because he makes for an excellent melee character due to sheer fire rate. Combine Trigger Fingers with his Ultra A and his passive and he turns into a lawnmower. Get a good gun and Throne Butt as well and you're pretty set. It's amazing to see nightmare level loops happening, but I do hope it doesn't mean Vlambeer starts to just wildly nerf stuff left and right just to prevent that, and ignore the early game balance and fun. But then they've been good about that a lot. 'Nerf' usually just means toned down. And it's funny to see frequently ignored stuff like Gamma Guts turn out to be key to these super runs.

Every further loop now adds two bb's and that's probably the biggest reason Crystal is now super good. None of the other characters have any real way to deal with that poo poo.

I gotta say I'm totally fine with never having a run of Nuclear Throne last six hours. If you can pull it off more power to you. Also how would a character that isn't Crystal handle the Big Bandit Brigade?

With that many at once, you pretty much couldn't as any other character. Maybe Rogue if you had a full 3 alt-attacks and all of the mutations that make it more powerful. Potentially you could make it through as anyone if you got lucky enough level generation to have good cover, but relying on that is impossible.

Potentially you could make it through as anyone if you got lucky enough level generation to have good cover, but relying on that is impossible. Big Bandits destroy cover though. Also, their HP is buffed each loop so the Rogue option is not sufficient after several rounds! The devs are changing Crystal around to be more fun and less overpowered in high loops: probably changing the shielding to be shorter but quicker to activate/deactivate, and it won't grant immunity from lasers anymore (just like with shielders). So Crystal will be more mobile/more fluid to play but less useful for infinite tanking I guess.

Crystal's throne butt is basically shield, 1 second pause, then teleport to cursor. Also there is some bizarre crash that forces me to restart my whole computer, so there's that. e: Yeah that's 4 runs in a row lost to a crash, I doubt they won't fix it for long. Also enemy crystals now fire through Crystals shield. Thank god I had rhino skin and strong spirit :I MatildaTheHun fucked around with this message at 17:35 on Jul 19, 2015 |

Just got to the throne. The throne itself has the same attacks but now both sides of the arena are filled with crown-vault pillars that turn into Guardians as the throne passes by them. You wouldn't think that would be much since you can kill them pretty easily but the extra layer of fire to avoid/kill does make it harder. Also I'll confirm that Crystal's new butt is super drat good now. Pierson fucked around with this message at 18:34 on Jul 19, 2015 |

Hotfixes are in, the game is good to play again without (awesome) bugs! I looooove the new crystal. Plays really fluid and quick; it's hella good to be able to quickly shield. It's like always having a melee weapon to reflect shots!

Got a pretty lucky daily today. Accidentally went to the oasis on loop three with a lightning cannon and still came out alive. I didn't even know that the skip would work with the extra big bandits, but one of them suicide charged into my gamma guts and there I was.

I looped for the first time today, never having seen or read about what exactly happens other than more enemies and better weapons. "How much worse can one loop make it?" I thought. Holy poo poo that was great. Made it to the sewers, naturally died to a ball guy while fighting the mama.

6 runs in a row ended by Lil' Hunter. There are so many tiny little changes they could make to make him a reasonable boss, but god forbid they do anything to him. What's worse is the inevitable feeling that no matter what I do I'm going to die to him, and of course I nevewr get decent spawns so I have to desperately attempt to kill half the level before he stomps on my head and then fires more bullets than I can count that travel faster than any other projectile in the game.
