I beat it.  Had the Blast Helm so quickly bombed out of the Necrodancer's first phase as per Reveilled's tip, then squeaked through the second thanks to a resurrect potion. Not convincing, but I'll take it.Did a quick run with Melody and she seems like a really fun character.

DOWN JACKET FETISH posted:On that note, I know you can redirect a minotaur charge with a flail or ring of war, but can you redirect Dead Ringer on the charge? I don't see how you could as the mechanics are very different. Minotaur hops a block per turn. Dead ringer instantly traverses the entire room. When exactly would you hit him for the reflect?

You can. You just have to be in range on the turn before he charges. Glare Seethe posted:I'm nowhere near speedrunning the game but that sounds like it might also be useful for Dove, with whom I've done a couple of runs. Darkness is not useful on dove since it replaces your ring and you want peace. For speed running dove you want a miners cap, which auto digs walls.

Digirat posted:Yeah there is no such thing as "acceptable damage" in this game. Never rely on intentionally tanking a hit. Armor and heart containers are great, but treat them as leniency on mistakes, not a resource you can expend. If you know the mechanics of the game it can be quite easy to get super tanky and with some regeneration. You'll see racers do this often, but sometimes we get overconfident and get stomped trying to push too fast. Health is a resource to spend, especially on blood magic. CuddlyZombie posted:Who do i have to kill to get more details on the expansion/dlc? Tbh I know some stuff but I can't really talk about it. New zone, new boss, new character, new weapon types, new consumables, new rings, and a new spell. DOWN JACKET FETISH posted:On that note, I know you can redirect a minotaur charge with a flail or ring of war, but can you redirect Dead Ringer on the charge? You can if you are in range on the beat he preps his charge.

Picked this up yesterday and I've been having a blast so far. Is it just me or is Zone 3 a huge jump in difficulty? It seemed to me like 1 and 2 were just a matter of learning patterns, while 3 is much more dependent on getting favorable items from chests or the shop while dealing with more enemies in more complex patterns. Or maybe I'm just bad, who knows.

Softface posted:Picked this up yesterday and I've been having a blast so far. A bit of both? Zone 3 stuff has some weirder patterns and enemies, like the clapping yeti's threw me off forever, but it's also real big and open so you get swarmed, with lots of terrain effects that will gently caress you up. It's also when you start seeing black skeletons and ice dragons and what not so in general enemies hit harder and have more health. It's not impossible without good items but its a step up, yeah.

Softface posted:Picked this up yesterday and I've been having a blast so far. I mean yeah, zone 3 is really hard, but also yeah, you're bad. There's a lot of fast enemies with complex patterns and they almost all do at least 1.5 hearts of damage... but the game is entirely beatable without any items nearly 100% of the time. Zone 3 used to be way worse, tbh, but there were like 3 different attempts to reduce the swarming of it.

khwarezm posted:I know, but I was hoping they'd have the resources to go through a more regular development process by now. They probably can, but they've said: "“Crypt of the NecroDancer is a MUCH better game because of all the great feedback we received from our community during Early Access, and we know that the same will be true of Early Access for Crypt of the NecroDancer: AMPLIFIED. Also, Early Access permits us to get the DLC into your hands more quickly, and we know that there are many of you who are anxious to start playing!”" It's hard to complain about the fact that they value community feedback.

Today I tried to lure a wind mage to a spike trap and for my troubles the mage sucked me into the trap instead. Also I dig buffered as aria to take care of a pixie but I forgot I had an infernal torch which made it explode instead. What are your favorite ways to die in this game? Here's some classics to start you off... digging into a surprise minotaur, getting ambushed instantly after shooting a random warlock from a mile away with the rifle, not getting the rapier quick kill on deep blues which would have worked without ring of courage, lunging into a dragon with obs rapier on a x2 multiplier instead of x3, killing a sub-boss with fireball and aggroing a shopkeeper in the process, and buying boots of pain in the blood shop.

Every month we got new items and characters! It was awesome! But like I said, I think this is just a way to get some more community feedback before finalizing it. I doubt there will be much continued development and let me assure you that there is a LOT of content in Amplified already.

It surprises me that I have to defeat a dragon before I get to practice fighting a dragon. Being killed by one seems like a good merit. I do appreciate the advice and I will give that a try.

This game is sweet. I'm terrible at it. I saw it's got workshop support and I'm curious if there are any mods that come recommended? I saw one that changes the weapon sprites s they're more than just recolours, which I like.

It uses a character that freezes time (as in the game moves only when you do) which makes it essentially a great dragon trainer as you can ponder over each move as long as you want.

actually the mole ain't so bad there is a lot of new stuff. five new weapon types.
carrots that give you the level map when you use them. cookies that come in stacks, heal half a heart each (you know how food makes you invincible the turn you use it??). familiars are pretty powerful. shovel of courage!! there's also a lot going on with the new content, it gets a bit confusing. shock mages can go gently caress themselves
