    Since I hate clickbait but short appealing titles are hard I combined the inverse tripling and wicked season doubling for the title number. While Wicked Season is not always active, the moment of doubled curse is what counts to survive.

      Bruh, when i first played Vampire Survivors i did it on Xbox one (sadly my laptop had died recently back then). My game lagged and crashed constantly when there was too much crap going on at once. I dont know if it was before the engine upgrade or after. Im currently playing it on the phone and so far i have had no issues.

  • @Glothmorg1

    Something similar happened to me. I had Phierragi, with Silent Old Sancuary and Awake arcanas. Had bracer, candelabr, spinach, tiragisu, torona and skullomaniac. I was like god of the sun, there was like 20 rays (+/-), spinning crazy fast and really big. At 28 somehow single enemies lagged over and latched to me. Problem is, the Phierragi, the rays start just a little way from the character. Enough for you to NOT hit the enemy that's on you. So like everything was dying already on the edge of the screen, but still something lagged over and killed me...

    This is probably your best video in my opinion. I've watched a lot of your videos and I usually have no idea what anything is or what it does (arcana card things? when did they even add that lol) and you properly explain some of it in this video. I dont think it hurts to explain why you do things and what they do, on that note, when you mention "when I did this last time I didnt quite know what I was doing" when you did what? a little bit more info really improves the watchability in my opinion. But I am one person and my opinion isnt the be all end all lol.
    Edit: Just wanted to make it clear, I really liked this video! :)

  • @ravencrovax
    @ravencrovax Před rokem +54

    Yesterday you asked why Bogaloo of Illusions was bad. Today shows why. The shrinking area is when it seemed that the enemies were able to get in to you. Also, since the area shrinks it allows the enemies to stutter step past the edge of your Santa Water pools and walk towards you. If the edge of the Santa Water remains unbroken, then it is much easier to stagger the enemies with damage.

    • @DexTag
      @DexTag  Před rokem +48

      I know what you mean, but I think you need to compare sacrifice vs payoff. Like if it shrinks down by -25%, so e.g. from 200% to 150%, but I gained 100% of that 200% from Boogaloo, then it's still 50% bigger compared to not having it. Only in the beginning for some time will it actually shrink below values compared to not having it and there it is annoying, but I think its worth the investement to have 29 minutes of a steadily growing weapon

    • @ravencrovax
      @ravencrovax Před rokem +2

      @@DexTag I'm just saying, if you have to restart at 15 min several times... At what point does using BoI (esp that early) become more of a hinderance than a help? If you took BoI last, at least then you would know if that was what was having an effect on you dying or not and you could modify it. Rather than trying to make it seem like a question of if SoS was good enough or not. At the very least SoS wouldnt get you killed by reducing the size of the Santa Water.
      Also, the -50 area from BoI would affect the damage of Santa Water, correct? Since it scales off of area and that -50 area from BoI is not insignificant.

    A bit late, but on the different damage from the same percent modifier: I think it calculates some of them differently, one just adds 150%, and one adds 100%, and then 50% of that total maybe.
    So 100 + 150% = 250
    100 + 100% = 200 and then
    200 + 50% = 300

    Hey Dex. Overall, which solo weapon limit break is the best one?

    • @DexTag
      @DexTag  Před rokem +2

      This is a bit of a tough one and depends on what you are looking for.
      For starters, evolutions have to go through, well, being evolved, which means they face limitations. Then there are many weapons that are insanely difficult early on, like Lightning Ring, but turn into one of the best killers in the end of the run. Tbh Santa Water being able to almost deal with Inverse Mode shows how insane it is. La Borra is more powerful, as in damage, but way smaller, so it takes longer to kill enemies

  • @JoeBee9
    @JoeBee9 Před rokem +2

    Do you find inverse difficult with a normal 6 weapon run or just when you do 1-weapon?

    • @DexTag
      @DexTag  Před rokem +11

      It depends on the weapons I choose, I think with 6 typical weapons it can be really hard depending on who you play and what weapons you chose, but the moment things like Shroud and Corridor and some other broken weapons are included it turns into a joke. It should also be noted that a lot of the difficulty in these runs comes from me going for super greedy things to get high stats, not taking Wicked Season and leveling less would be better when enemies outscale you

      @theguythatasked6400 Před rokem +2

      The indicators are from the Wicked season arcana. The icon refers to a stat which is doubled when that icon is showing. The crossed out items are banished, in this case it’s by using the unlockable seal powerup. Banished items will never show up when levelling up. You can also banish items mid run by using banishes.

      There is a randomazzo card that boosts your stats by how few weapons you're using, so that'd be why you use only your starting weapon.
      As for not evolving the santa water, probably just an added layer of challenge. No reason not to evolve your stuff ASAP except in a niche situation like using the Night Edge, since that one could kill you without alternative healing sources.

    What I always find funny about people shitting on Santa Water and La Borra is that a lot of those people really like Lightning Ring/Thunder Loop. In the first half of the game or so, the two are relatively equal, though in my experience La Borra almost always does a bit more damage, but in the latter half of the game, Thunder Loop isn't actually all that great. There's still a lot of worse weapons but La Borra is still one of the better weapons in the game while Thunder Loop is average at best.

      k(kilo) is thousand
      m(mega) is million
      g(giga) is billion
      t(tera) is trillion
      p(peta) is quadrillion
