And even more bullet capacity for OP guns so you don’t have to find ammo for them . I’ll choose him anyway

      Mine too. You're done if there aren't good chests in the first chamber which is rare (in which case I restart the game), but the pilot has the best chance of finding new weapons and passive items which can make a huge difference in the run. He can afford to risk losing brown chests with the lockpick and saving the keys (which he can buy cheaper) for the good chests. His sidearm is bad but enough to beat the first chamber.

  • @real_quotegoat
    @real_quotegoat Před 5 lety +31

    My favorite so far (don't have bullet or robot yet) is the pilot. And here's my reasoning:
    +Extra item slot is really useful, because you can carry the gunpowder and an item at the same time, or two items if you aren't trying to make the bullet. This also stacks with other storage capacity so you can hold three items after picking up only one.
    +The shop discounts, while certainly not the most useful, are still nice because all the money you save can buy another weapon or item by the end floors.
    +Silly walk cycle!
    -Lockpicks, while nice, are very up to luck.
    +If you clear a whole floor before using the lockpick, you can check to make sure there are no keys left, therefore giving you a 50% chance to get an item and a 50% chance that you can just break it and hopefully get something small.
    -Starter gun is garbage
    +You can get used to the starter gun after playing him for a while, although going back to other characters can be jarring, and vice versa.
    -Isn't a brown coat.
    +Looks cool.
    +Extra ammo is always nice. Just like the shop discount, it's not a hugely notacible change, so it gets overlooked and underappreciated.
    Overall, I think that the pilot is hated because his downsides are so obvious while his upsides are more miniscule and not as prominent. But after playing him for a while, the subtle differences are enough to make a better difference in a run.
    Edit: HOLY SHIT PILOT HAS A BROWN COAT AS AN ALT SKIN HE IS NOW THE BEST CHARACTER

  • @harm2382
    @harm2382 Před 5 lety +13

    I play co-op solo for a reason, and it's that adorable (and powerful) player 2 character, The Cultist.
    I'll go over all the benefits.
    Co-op mode makes all enemies have 40% more health to balance out the game. When your partner dies, all chests on the floor turn into "Revive Chests" that will revive your partner with full health. When your partner gets revived, be it opening a Revive Chest, beating the floor's boss or using the Friendship Cookie (The Cultist's starting active item) all of the chests return to their original rarity. Synergies are also shared between players.
    First, The Cultist's starting weapon is the middle ground in staring sidearms, not the best, not the worst but with the added damage up (mentioned later) it becomes the best of the starting weapons.
    Second, The Cultist's starting passive item, Number 2, gives them a 41% damage boost and a 2x speed boost. The 41% damage boost negates co-op mode's enemy buffs and basically gives The Cultist +1% damage. The speed up makes dodging and just getting around much easier.
    Third, in co-op mode, Lich's Eye Bullets (The Gunslinger's starting passive) works for both players, making The Cultist a powerhouse when paired up with the Gunslinger. Especially if you don't have friends and play co-op solo.
    Fourth and finally, The Cultist's past is the greatest thing in the entire game. It's a 1v1 duel against player 1.
    Also, need I add that The Cultist is adorable as hell?

    1. Bullet: Cleaving paths through a bullet hell game almost feels like cheating. Add to that the ability to bump bellies with enemies without taking damage makes the bullet too good to pass up.
    2. Pilot: I can't believe this guy gets so much crap because of his starter pistol. His double items, ammo capacity, and his ability to make the shopkeepers weak in the knees, makes him a bona fide champ. Also that lock pick is awesome, if I end up not finding a key for a chest or just don't want to waste your limited keys on a brown chest might as well give it a shot. If it doesn't work you can still break the chest open.
    3. Marine: The accuracy/reload bonus is great. I almost always end up wasting the ammo supply early in the run when I find a decent item to replace it.
    4. Convict: This was the first character I finished the fifth chamber with. The double damage perk really got me out of some tight spots when I was learning the ropes.
    5. Huntress: Cute duo, but as a bonus that dog is pretty lackluster. Too often there is a run where I get nothing out of this little guy. The crossbow is ok, but not a selling point for me.
    6. Robot: I killed it's past, but don't see much reason to play as this character again. If I need to make the game more difficult I'd rather just do daisuke's challenge with another character.

    • @dotXyore
      @dotXyore Před 5 lety +2

      Robot is very situational. It's not about his weapon or items. It's about doing Junkan runs. If you do a Junkan Only run (break every single chest), you get increased damage AND the ability to acquire Junkan. The best run is when you have 10 junk with Junkan or Gold Junk and some decent weapons. It's perfect for lazy folks like me who don't want to bother keeping track of synergies or juggling multiple weapons/items.

  • @KamahlFoK
    @KamahlFoK Před 6 lety +70

    Pilot is objectively the best character come mid/end-game. Between the lockpick giving you extra items, 10% more ammo on your guns, a second active item slot built in, and the shop discount (that really is mostly put towards buying more keys to get more chests), he ends up with far better gear overall in the end. Only other character I consider anymore is Convict, and that's if I'm just wanting to blitz through levels and not concern myself with actually exploring chambers.

If you lose armor health you S.O.L because you could go through a whole game not even getting anymore armor. And his active item is decent, bosses or enemies can just walk out its radius and it doesnt do tick damage.

    Loved this video breakdown man. It’s funny cuz I’ve used the Pilot the MOST of al of them and beat the game with him first due to the utility of the double item ability. The RNG of the lockpick can def be frustrating as hell but it’s GDLK when it works! I came to find out that of the main gungeoneers, the Huntress is def my favorite as well. Recently unlocked the Bullet that Kills the Past so I’m trying to finally unlock the Bullet gungeoneer. I tried getting the Robot the other day but ya hard cuz rolling makes you drop the broken TV. Gonna need to have wings to fly over gaps, teleport or get lucky when I try. This is a top 20 game of all-time for me though, easy.

  • @umbaupause
    @umbaupause Před 5 lety +1

    I've actually grown to kinda love the convict just cause that weapon set and the molotov make floor 1 so fast. If you can swap weapons and use the auto reload of inactive weapons effectively, this character becomes a DPS monster by comparison before you find some better stuff.

  • @garrettm4904
    @garrettm4904 Před 6 lety +4

    Oddly enough, I really enjoy playing the convict. I think that I enjoy her starter gun the most due to its high rate of fire and it's faster reload time so you can vomit out bullets right at the start. Though the Sawed off is definitely not as good as the crossbow, I still think it's better than nothing. plus, once you learn how to fight up-close it can do some great damage. The Molotov is probably my favorite part about her kit, due to how well it can deal with the stronger enemies and bosses. Lastly, her passive does reward bad play, but (kinda like cigarettes) I feel like sometimes giving up health for a quick boost in damage to melt a boss or group of enemies is fair (though I think we'd all prefer to just not get hit by the boss and get the extra heart). I think overall using the convict just requires a more aggressive and fast paced play style. And I think I'm alright at the game... I can usually get through floor 1-3's bosses without being hit and overall loosing little health on the way. But I will definitely agree that the Hunter is much better.

  • @FreddoFilms
    @FreddoFilms Před 6 lety +188

    My list:
    1. Bullet: Ability to destroy bullets and high damage right off the bat is just so good. Also armor of thorns is ridiculous as this guy.
    2. Huntress: Starting weapon is pretty good, but they really shine through the crossbow cause of it's high dmg. Also pupper.
    3. Robot: Armor HP is obviously a burden but the long range and large clip combined with battery bullets+water coolant is really powerful. And +5% DMG up for junk is beautiful.
    4. Marine: Kind of a lesser robot, has a large clip and long range starting weapon. Extra hit is kinda nice. I always seem to find a better use item before I really need the ammo refill though, which leads to it never being used properly.
    5. Convict: I don't actually mind this character, her revolver can be fired faster by rapidly clicking, which vomits out the entire clip. It also does slightly more damage than other starting weapons. The sawn-off is garbo though.
    6. Pilot: I struggle to get far as this guy because of the terrible starting gun. He's also pretty RNG based, which I strongly dislike.
    And I've never played as the cultist because I don't own a controller, but I will say that it has the best alternate skin out there.

    I love the Bullet because once you get him its so easy to breeze through the first and second floor with blasphemy if you're good at dodging at the perfect time and not losing his sword projectile. Also he practically one shots all of the enemies on the first and second floor if you hit enemies with the slice and the projectile at the same time, which yet again is great if you can dodge at the right time. It also makes getting the Robot much easier since he can destroy bullets and a lot of the time eliminates the need to dodge roll especially in boss fights, but mostly it helps you remember that you're carrying him.

    • @KamahlFoK
      @KamahlFoK Před 6 lety +3

      Wait what, Convict has literally the best starting kit! Her base gun almost qualifies as a primary in how much damage it puts out, let alone swapping between weapons while the other reloads to basically nuke down bosses. Even has a molotov to top off the damage charts. I don't like using her but she blows away everyone else starting-gear-wise.

    • @krakenjacket5333
      @krakenjacket5333 Před 6 lety +2

      Well while the base gun is strong and is one of the constant upsides to her with it's good damage output despite the low accuracy and clip size, the sawn-off loses it's usefulness around the third chamber as you shouldn't be using it against bosses after the first chamber, but can still be useful in blasting away more troublesome enemies. As for her items the molotov does have it's uses, but I usually either forget it exists or find a better active item as I personally don't use it much aside from the first boss and maybe the second (Though its useless against the Bullet King and Gorgun) and as for the enraging photograph it always helps to have more damage, especially when things are getting dicey enough for you to take a hit, but by no circumstance should you EVER intentionally get hit to activate it's effect with how scarce health is. All the same shes the first character I beat the game with and at the end of the day the starting kits really don't change an awful lot past the start of each run, and I take pride in the fact that I do well with her despite her being deemed the hardest to play, next to the pilot according to this vid that is

    • @caluan9582
      @caluan9582 Před 6 lety +10

      the main reason the convict is my favorite is because when you get hit you'r pissed, and convict is also pissed, and there's nothing more satisfying than doing a trillion damage while screaming insults at the boss, she's a beserker and if i just want to run in guns blazing everywhere and enrage when someone gets a little too agressive, i call that a fun character, unreliable? yeah sure, but she's undeniably fun

    The pilot is the best of the gungeoneers, you can replace his weapon almost instantly from a chest which is his one downside, the lockpick means you can usually open up the secret levels giving you a huge boost from the start & the biggest benefit is having two active items. It's not too hard to find items that grant invincibility, I've had multiple runs where I switch between two of these during boss fights.

      The cultist actually has a pretty decent starting weapon, and his wonderfully named passive (called Number 2) gives him extra movement speed, and +41% damage when player 1 dies, which essentially negates the entire downside to co-op (enemies have 40% more HP but you'll be sharing items so that's also a downside), plus a very handy movement speed up that sweetens the deal. The better player should always pick the cultist, as it's basically used to take advantage of your friend who sucks at the game.
      I would actually really love to be able to play as the cultist in normal gameplay, but sadly I don't see that ever becoming possible.

      just connect an extra controller and then repeatedly kill that character by going into rooms and body blocking all damage while drawing agro of mobs, either that or by using pits

      Ero Alduin You first need to kill a characters' past before you can unlock the bullet. I did make it to Marine's past yesterday but I died.

    I've been playing Gungeon for a little while now, and exclusively using the pilot for two reasons: 1 disarming personality for lower base shops, and 2 Hidden Compartment. The reason why is that I'm trying to make it to the blacksmith in the forge (gotten TO the forge two or three times with all but the casing but always die before I find the blacksmith) with as many of the Bullet parts as possible to remove them from the playing field. While disarming personality cannot lower the cost of the prime primer, the hidden compartment is a GODSEND for the arcane Gunpowder so one can keep their utility while carrying that baggage with them.
