Pierson posted:The Glacier Gun feels pretty nuts: Not only is it strong and bounces off walls but the small AOE it has on a hit destroys any bullets caught in it. It made the Beholster and Canonball-boss trivial. Otoh the DPS is somewhat low for bosses. The best anti Boss weapon ive found so far is the railgun which absolutely destroys everything in very few hits.

parthenocarpy posted:All the good items are hidden behind unlocks with the boss credits. You have to sink a dozen hours into the game before you start unlocking the really helpful stuff. I dunno about that, you can get a couple versions of invuln without unlocks. The hook has decent uses, and while the explosive items aren't game-winners they can carry rough rooms on the early floors.

I've had great success with bosses with the mooninite gun that shoots the slow large squares. Any boss that chases after you will get destroyed. The sling is also amazing against bosses. Also anything that has bees.

You'll find him in shops later and after you buy a couple things from him, he'll show up in the main area where you can unlock new items for it to sell.

There are, however, multiple DPS+ and heart related items behind credit unlocks that make the player significantly more powerful.

I've literally never had the Pilot's lockpick work. Granted, that's out of a small sample size (maybe 12-15 times), but it's definitely made it so I no longer play him. It may be part of why I'm fine with the convict, at least you know what you're getting up front. gently caress the Pilot.

Jusupov posted:Bee hive + potion of gun friendship + chance to refire the projectile to a nearby enemy + kill pillars boss = single digit fps But they say this game has no powerful synergies! Just died to the stage 5 boss, on his final phase. What I would like to know in the future is the damage output of the weapons, I had a demon's head (whatever it's called), ten other guns of varying use, and the Beholder gun. I used the Beholder gun. Right or wrong?

ufarn posted:FFS, why can't the elevator guy just say everything he needs up front, so I don't go on to spend bullets that he apparently requires. I hate that I have to rely on wikis and tutorials for this game sometimes. The poo poo you give him persists between runs, you don't have to fulfill all 3 requests at once (or do them in any particular order -- if you have the other items on you, even if you haven't given him 3 blanks, he'll ask you for them)

Yo for real, what do you do against the Treadnaught because no matter what I do I always die against this thing. Cannonbalrog isn't much of a problem and I can even make it through floor 4 without much trouble, but Treadnaught is just a huge wall I can't get over.

If he had known the requirements beforehand, he would have gotten it another way and been able to fulfill both.

Do you only have to build the bullet once or once for every character?

The description just says it grabs loot from rooms, I figured it meant a stronger loot vacuum once enemies died or something. I guess I just have horrible luck with the RNG based characters.

people who like this game should check out Cryptark. its a procedurally generated derelict spaceship delousing simulator technically in early access, but it's effectively fully featured already, with a full campaign mode and a pure roguelike mode for people who prefer that

I guess I just have horrible luck with the RNG based characters. Loot doesn't disappear and is automatically vacuumed to your character regardless of the class. The hunter's dog is supposed to find extra pickups after you clear a room but like I said I never get anything extra. The only thing that you can lose is ammo pickups, guns on the floor, and active items on the floor since a rat comes by and steals it and even then there are ways to scare the rat off.

If the game didn't have teleporters the rat would honestly be a big step up over e.g. Isaac, because it cuts out the need to constantly backtrack to be "optimal". But since teleporters are in I don't really get it.

is there a way to cheat and unlock the secret characters? I want more variety but I don't want to slog through hoping to find a super rare spawn 5 times in a row to unlock a character. Once, maybe, but 5 times is just being a dick.

The dog might actually be finding stuff and you're missing it. I didn't notice it for a bit, but the dog just digs at the ground really quick once the room finishes, so it's kind of hard tell if the room dropped the item or the dog found it.

Broken Cog posted:Try running the Disintegrator with Double Vision or a similar active. It's ridiculous. I wasn`t too impressed. Disintegrator takes over a whole second to wind up - perhaps two seconds - which gives you very little time to hit with it between huge waves of bullet waves, and double vision made it harder to aim from a distance. It did take out the third chamber tank boss very effectively and was a good opener for all other bosses, though. I scored this combo on the first level against the gun king boss and has almost no chance to use it beyond an opener because it takes too long start shooting.

Here's how I beat Treadnaught without taking damage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9T1tvcx82g All I really had that mattered to the fight was the meatboy gun and the passive that makes you shoot behind you as well. Best run I've had so far.
