I want to thank you personally for introducing me to this game. I discovered your channel through the BG3 spell tier lists, and I think I’d watched all of your bg3 tier lists before I decided to see what the other game was that you were making content on. I ended up really loving brotato and just got my first danger 5 win on the abyss last night ❤
Watching this now, but just want to say thanks for all the videos and guides that have helped me clear many of the characters to D5. Some of the older guides (pre Abyssal) are pretty outdated and updated current guides would be wonderful, but keep doing what your doing man!
Another example of how your confidence playing this game changes your purchasing; I wouldn’t have capped my hp that early for fear of not acquiring enough defense and regen. You did great as usual and managed to buy some good stuff for the end of the run
Real nice run. I'm currently taking all of my brotatoes into D5/abyss so this is all good to know for my upcoming run with Bull. I've already completed D5 with harder characters like Captain but this is still good information.
No, he didn't. 🤣 I was about to comment on that. I was able to see that it didn't affect the explosion damage when he quickly moused over the Bull icon at the end of the run.
I did the same. The description still read as 300% damage from elemental. Frozen heart did not increase it. 45:48 is the timestamp and the window of opportunity to see it is small.
Bull is so fun. Also a great character for anyone struggling to get their first Danger 5 win. If you take it into endless you are going to need blood donation or a lot of increased explosion size though.
Wave 18 character looked ridiculous. Is there any mods that let you customize your Brotato look. And at the end I was hoping you would look at that snowball.
Some of the dlc characters that care about curse have a harder time without the guaranteed curse alien spawns but yeah for the most part it's just a difficulty increase
Man, your HP could have been 200+ by the end of that if you hadn’t capped it. Really not sure if the Handcuffs were worth it in the end, though it certainly made the next few waves WAY easier by more than doubling your damage
Since we didn't die, having more hp wouldn't have really made a difference! HP only matters if it lets you play more aggressively without dying, which we were already getting to do - more damage was a lot more useful here
You're appraisal of spyglass is a little off. While it's true you may not get your money back, what it's actually doing is allowing you to see more items in each shop. Since item prices change each level, the more items you see can affect how much you're paying earlier in the run.
A good way to think of it is this... You are able to reroll the shop one extra time per wave, this allows you to buy an item you might not have seen or you might see later but now it costs more. This also applies to locking that item. And those savings aren't calculated into the "savings" tooltip.
I'm afraid that's not really the case. Spending the money on spyglass when you could have just spent it on rerolling means you see fewer items, and in later shops - which as you point out are more expensive. There's no case where the spyglass cost couldn't have just been used to reroll anyways, so the tooltip is accurate for how much money it makes you.
@@Seraphas84 I just wish the item would get buffed so that this strategy would be powerful! For me though, the numbers don't work in the item's current state.
I wouldn't go quite that far since you'll always take it from a box, but yeah it's in a rough spot for 20 wave runs. (imo the worst items are esty's, barricade, white flag, statue, and candle, since they almost always make your character actively worse even if gotten for free)
Only one 'random' is required in this title since Bull can't use weapons. Maybe next time you random into Bull you can pick random items in the shop by rolling a 4 bit binary number. This can be done with the regular numbers 0-15 and then convert it to binary. Eg. If you roll a 10 that would be 1010 so you would buy the first and third shop slot, or what you can afford between those selections. 🤓
I feel like spyglass' value doesn't lie in it's materials saved as much as it grants you access to more items. Instances where you wouldn't have rerolled because it was too expensive, are now happily rolled. Thus giving you access to getting better/wanted items. Which in turn improves your overall run.
YOU ARE SO WRONG 🚫🙅 ABOUT SPYGLASS👎! YOU JUST KEEP SAYING STUPID 🙄🙄 MATHEMATICALLY INCORRECT 😡😒 ARGUMENTS FOR WHY YOU THINK 👎🤬 IT'S BAD AND YOU'RE JUST WRONG 🚫 ON EVERY ✖️ SINGLE ❌ POINT YOU TRY TO MAKE 🔇. JUST ACCEPT THE SPYGLASS 🙄😮💨 INTO YOUR LIFE AND BE BETTER FOR IT LOL 😂🙄

Fax i play brotato everyday now bc of him especially the gmo mods
Me too!
Basically the same story here for how I came to play Brotato too!

Day 34 of asking for the "Brick only" challenge 😜✌️💜
Ceph top tip for Bull - don't dodge on dodge! 😂👍
I love the bull, it's so relaxing to play. 😊
Real nice run. I'm currently taking all of my brotatoes into D5/abyss so this is all good to know for my upcoming run with Bull. I've already completed D5 with harder characters like Captain but this is still good information.
Did you ever check to see if frozen heart increased the bull's base damage?
No, he didn't. 🤣 I was about to comment on that. I was able to see that it didn't affect the explosion damage when he quickly moused over the Bull icon at the end of the run.
I did the same. The description still read as 300% damage from elemental. Frozen heart did not increase it. 45:48 is the timestamp and the window of opportunity to see it is small.
ah yes.. the bull, the class where you get on top of the enemies and explode all over them…
yes! I was waiting for this!
Bull is so fun. Also a great character for anyone struggling to get their first Danger 5 win. If you take it into endless you are going to need blood donation or a lot of increased explosion size though.
Great video!
Ice cube didnt proc off your explosions. The few times you did get the effect was from Tyler.
you're right! I just trusted the devs to have made that work correctly. Rare miss by them!
27:47 mysterious tree kill without taking damage. One of your alien eyes got it.
And then you realized it two seconds later. Lol. I should really watch longer before commenting. DOUBLE ENGAGEMENT!
Shuriken still triggers the puffy fish projectiles. It has nothing to do with range damage scaling.
Wave 18 character looked ridiculous. Is there any mods that let you customize your Brotato look. And at the end I was hoping you would look at that snowball.
Good point, I forgot to check it! Looks like it was 12 damage (checked by frame advancing over when I moused over it)
Buy a Barbie
who was your first danger five with? Mine was with Saver
I tried using high dodge, without blood donation I would stay on top of a huge mob and it would dodge 2 or 3 times in a row. Very irritating.
It definitely can get you in some cases!
Bit late but another excellent video as always! (mafia run request day 23)
Is the Abyss easier for any character? It seems like it's purely a difficulty increase for most.
Some of the dlc characters that care about curse have a harder time without the guaranteed curse alien spawns but yeah for the most part it's just a difficulty increase
I love your content but I could never do this

spyglass was on wave 12 shop
Good catch! So even less value than I said in the video
Yay 😊

The spyglass is exceptionally situational. Potentially the second worst item in the game (looking at you, Etsy’s couch).

@@tallgerman880 Etsy's couch is definitely pricey but you can find some beautiful handcrafted works from small artists!
I can’t beat it with romantic or gangster no matter what I do
Check out my guides for those characters! Hopefully those are helpful - good luck!
@ thanks man I’ve checked them out and I’ve been trying my hardest, have a great day
@@kadenmaguglin392 us mere brotato mortals shouldn't sweat struggling in this game, it's a tough one! Time and practice get us through

The thing is you could have just spent the money that you spent on spyglass on rerolling, so it actually decreases the number of items you see!
