The practice option is only unlocked after you've done your graded daily run, though.

Changing annoying challenges right after I grinded out SPEED! today. All it took was Epic Fetus in the first item room followed by lots of orbitals and then a Stopwatch in the last possible shop. Then I had an amazing Lost run where I picked up the Get Out of Jail Free card that the challenge unlocked, and beat Mega Satan. That was the last thing I needed to do with The Lost. Now hopefully the patch makes the Guardian challenge easier, because gently caress that.

Y'know, I had a much easier time of the Guardian than I did Speed! I didn't have to deal with very many rooms with lots of spikes or red poop, I guess.

No items truly break Speed! like many of the other challenges, save for the stopwatch maybe? That was my experience anyway. It was the toughest challenge for me because you need to not only have good items, but you have to get good room layouts and the right bosses too. With Guardian, you get the good orbitals and you can wreck most rooms before the punching bag can do something stupid.

Proptosis, holy mantle, dmg up galore and guppy made the time limit not even important. I think I even did the boss rush on it because why not cricket's head  Halfway through the boss rush the damage started happening and I got all confused as to WTF was going on

I don't even know the last time I've seen Proptosis. Even on the run that I completed Speed! I barely scraped by with mom's knife, and two damage items. That was only because I got lucky with room layouts.

Finally beat Brains! with a floor 1 dark bum+bag face+i've seen everything and a floor 2 krampus head. Having effectively unlimited resources by Caves 2 certainly makes things more manageable.

JoshVanValkenburg posted:SUPER MEGA GREED is so boring. I hope they eventually make the fight more dynamic, and less tanky. I literally spent like 10 minutes soymilk coin shooting him and his stupid coins. Its not hard and its not fun. Hang on - are you saying you picked up Soy Milk and Tears of the Keeper in a Greed run? Tears of the Keeper has a chance to create a coin every time your tears hit, and Ultra Greed heals by picking up coins. Combined with Soy Milk dramatically reducing damage and increasing fire rate ... you get the picture?

RoboCicero posted:I get it mixed up with Mom's Pearl 100% of the time and it's awful. I used to do that but just remember that the cursed eye is a pedestal item and mom's pearl is a trinket and you'll stop messing that up really fast tho I still pause to consider the loving thing as though I'd never seen it before every now and then

I wish I could remove it from the game altogether along with Missing No. now that you can set up a "buy every item in the game" combo

Is Sacred Heart more common now? I've bumped into it maybe 5 times since Afterbirth came out. I think I've seen it only about 5 times before, Rebirth and Flash Isaac put together.

If you make it to him normally you can't lose. It's just a dull fight.

Augus posted:Hey, so sorry if this has been asked before but which challenge runs should I prioritize in terms of item unlocks? Same question but not limited to challenges and specific for character starting items. The only thing I got since Afterbirth was the paper clip for Cain from Lillith Greed mode. I'm probably still missing stuff from rebirth too. I got the D6 for Isaac and I think that's it.

Haha, I finally beat ultra greed but he stole all my (few) coins so apparently I don't get an unlock? gently caress YOU! never again on this ridiculous patch. I had enough firepower to kill pretty much anything in a second but gently caress you! the healing coins resolve in less than a second!  gotcha again!Has anybody seen Edmund clear his own game?

How do you beat Brains? By having, Proptosis, Quad Shot and Guppy with an Incubus and Monster Box of course! That was a nice run. I also managed to destroy Guardian by having a devil deal containing Guppy's Paw, Abaddon and Pact while holding the Soul Converter. Managed to cap my HP and never had issues afterwards. Dunno if the damage ups helped, but fear helped for sure.

the secret to making lilith the best character is lil brimstone. even better is if you can combo it with regular brimstone I like lilith a lot because she's really unique and actually makes a lot of familiars way, way more useful. might be my favorite character now that azazel is straight trash

Speaking of which, easiest Family Man yet: All I have for old challenges on my new save is The Purist. So far the old challenges seem a lot easier with the new items, just as long as an early Rag Man or Stain doesn't gently caress you up.

I finally managed to beat speed with cricket's head on floor 1 and scythes on a floor 3 devil deal. Some other damage ups and some lucky heart drops helped. I STILL almost died in the womb, but for once not to the timer damage. Just to my own impatience.
