Astaring, can you do as V1 or V2? Here are some result that you need (V1: pick or buy some sword slingshot, and after 10 waves, buy paintball gun or scatter blaster, Once you are at wave 20 buy rocket or buy bb gun or you can just save it, tbh don't save it, it's a bad idea to save it so you kinda need to pick 1, wave 25 buy rocket launchers) (V2: pick paintball gun and slingshot, (tbh I do solo as V2 player to beat the wave 30 boss, and I made it, X, X, S) reach wave 5 buy rocket or save it if you want bb gun at wave 10, after wave 20 buy rockets, if you get choice of grappling hook, you pick grappling hook, and you can just choose the upgrade whatever you want, wave 25 pick a right choice)
is indeed a ultrakill i play ultrakill soo i do know and the combo is but there kinda not same not because is roblox or not i could tell everything i know but i let other who really know a lot more soo i just say that 1. the punch is the first and free is can parry is useful (maybe that what sword does) 2. normal when whatever you get s in every without reset you get a p stand for perfect but in that game is x which i cant tell or is maybe for joke that i don't know
i discovered it on accident a while back but i kinda use it in stage 3 in case i wanna cause the funny explosions. it's still hard to pull off consistently though since if you're being chased by enemies it makes trying to place a timebomb for that a lot harder.
@@astaringbut when act 1 (wave 1-30) gets a peime sanctum... we need to parry! we cant beat minos without parrying or whatever is this the prime of this game
i guess he's meant to be like the player but he can be annoying if you aren't able to dodge his attacks (considering how he moves all around the place)
i actually tried that loadout during one of my runs, but still think superball is fine since i pair it with slateskin gear whenever i can it's pretty much preferences when it comes to each individual player in combat initiation, maybe they'll like a certain loadout more or less
@@astaring yeah but the slingshot is a one time ricochet for one projectile, and switching back and fourth between BB and slingshot is a lot, compared to using the ball which can be shot multiple times
i think i just referred to the superball being fine but i suppose i can say some stuff about that i'm quite used to the quickswitch between slingshot to paintball/bb gun whenever i want to do a ricoshot so it doesn't really border me as that much
there's like a few ways you can avoid or mitigate the homing star attack, i'll list some that could help for other players Dashing - Dashing can give I-frames, it likely lasts within the first few frames of the Dash. If there no other options, you can always DASH to avoid the projectile's explosion when it is about to hit you, but the timing might be tight to get a hang of. Reflector - It can act similar to the Sword, but you have more leeway in terms of when to timing it thanks to being able to hold the Reflector for an indefinitely amount of time and the AoE. Just time it (or hold it before Vagabond sends out the projectile) and you can deflect it. Slateskin Potion - This isn't really a way to avoid damage, but you can tank it using the Slateskin Potion's Shield HP. Just do note that it won't be active or if you already took some hits, you might take partial damage after the Shield HP breaks. Cover - The Projectile can explode on contact, even by the environment. You can use cover to make it do nothing, but this strategy is only there if you need to survive, rather than going aggresive/stylish ways of beating Vagabond. (It's okay to resort to these kinds of stuff, especially when starting out.) these are just the few ways i know of that you can avoid the homing star attack without the sword i suppose. idk if there's others, but use these how you will
hey Astaring I think you should post Combat Initiation more to get your channel up because the most popular video that you have is this video that I commented on and I saw you post some stuff(just a tip for your channel do it if you want)
idk if i'll do more videos on combat initiation, but if all 6 stages are finished perhaps i'll revisit in case i don't really intend on captalizing or going for the trendy strats since i just post random stuff without much care, mostly. that's why majority of my videos are unedited and pure raw footage, though some stuff might be trimmed out
it's usually E. (if you haven't binded to any other button) press it and you can toss a coin if you have the slingshot out. the coin can be combo'd with your sword or paintball gun. (a setting also allows you to use right click while in first person to do alt-fires on btw)
hm... i'm not sure if i'll do that since there's a couple videos out there that have done sword only it depends on how i'll do sword only, maybe i'm only allowed sword and only that or if other active gears are allowed maybe even pair it with trowel since it's likely also a limited ranged tool idk, we'll see
you can parry the attack by using the sword. if you don't have other options, keep avoiding him by dodging his attacks by dashing, moving or even jumping over some of them
i'm not too sure honestly, you might see it in pubs where some people run loadouts without sword due to the nature of other players (with swords) taking aggro for solos? might be a different story to see for those recorded runs, but yeah.
@@SwagChickenNuggetGod in the frequently answered questions channel in the combat initiation discord server about mobile compatibility, they specifically said that "Mobile simply doesn't work for this game." and the fact that there's multiple keybinds that you need to use during gameplay... it's likely not going to happen or even to attempt it to make it compatible for mobile players.
people have different styles of playing the game, i seen a post in their discord server's forums where they talked about like playing from a top down perspective sometimes you might have more people like you who play the game in a similar way
it's apart of the slateskin potion gear. once you drink the slateskin potion, you're able to do a slam while in mid-air to end the effect early and produce a shockwave that becomes more potent the longer the air-time is. some weapons can be used alongside the slam when you do it, like superball for an example
That beat drop at 7:20 to 7:26 tho
somewhat unintentional on my part but hey, that was cool.
Dude, the way you fought Jason is similliar to mine. Good job!
we're gonna jump over Slashes
I am getting recommended a lot of small channels recently, cool.
idk how, but it just happens randomly, i supopse.
Glad to know I’m not the only person who knows slingshot jumping or whatever you can call it(not rico chet)
yeah. there's probably others too.

i swear, most of the syncs/timings of certain actions were unintended
@@astaring its still sick af lol
Well shit, I know what I'm playing later
good luck and have fun. it might be difficult.
I hate how all of the bosses have attacks that will just screw you over if you don't have sword
yeah, but i suppose you can make the most out of your available toolkit if you got no other options
This is crazy how he defeated Vagabond that quickly and this tech is really hard tbh(not for you tho(or if it is))😮
i got used to his counters, to dodge certain attacks and probably be able to game hard with my weapons. yeah.

Dodgeball (upgraded to cannonball) and Paintgun (upgraded to BB rifle) is better, you can hit the ball many times and it ricochets many times.
i actually tried that loadout during one of my runs, but still think superball is fine since i pair it with slateskin gear whenever i can

What key to press to get coin on the slingshot?

(a setting also allows you to use right click while in first person to do alt-fires on btw)

Try to do what I did do sword only not katana juste sword and not dying once and having x score and finishing the game

How did you parry the Jason attack?
you can parry the attack by using the sword. if you don't have other options, keep avoiding him by dodging his attacks by dashing, moving or even jumping over some of them

try combining pirate's explosive with timebomb and rocket launcher
i likely know about that but i don't usually go with rocket launcher for stage 2.

how do i coin
press the alt-fire button while you have the slingshot equipped. the coins can be combo'd with the sword or paintball gun.
Is no sword really that uncommon? Like sometimes I just go in with birck and rocket launcher 💀
i'm not too sure honestly, you might see it in pubs where some people run loadouts without sword due to the nature of other players (with swords) taking aggro
for solos? might be a different story to see for those recorded runs, but yeah.
