#Brotato #Part112
I love how Reto doesn't even mention plank when he was thinking about weapons lol
never heard of it
Brotato cant plank. Hes round.
I’d say Battlemage would be a fitting name for this character. Love how with the starting crown it was also just a better version of the farmer on top of its melee/elemental shenanigans
You should give infinite the ability to start with every weapon, even the rare ones, so when you pick random weapon you have the ability to *actually* start with any random weapon and it would allow for some really cool unique builds
In addition to this, pretty much every run you've thrown out your starter weapon so you could get smt that fit the quirks better, I think this would just add another part of the run you could stratagise around, as these weapons would be more worth keeping, especcially considering their rarity
It’s a fun idea and why I like the Administrator as a novelty character, to have an OP start with purple weapons. It only works on the Admin because he gets no other stat bonuses.
I think common starting weapons are best for regular characters. Having a wave 1 epic/rare and scaling bonuses is a tad imbalanced.
@@brandonkruse6412 I think the reason it works is due to the fact that the character can already be incredibly op or incredibly weak simply depending on your luck. And by choosing random weapon with the rare weapons would add another aspect to the run that you could strategize around, as opposed to just chucking your starting item cus it doesn't work with the run, cus then what's the point. Ideally I think it'd be best if it were possible to only choose a random weapon and have all weapons in the pool so they can't just always pick obliterator or smt
@@brandonkruse6412 What if you added a "you can never get rid of this weapon" option to it
If the rarer weapons were weighted so that they were rare to randomize into, I think it would be fine. This way, when you do get a rare weapon, you'd be more likely to keep it and strategize around it because of how rare it is to get
I would call this character the "Shaman Warrior" or just "Shaman" It is literally a balanced elementalist. The build started off as an equivalent of rubbing your socks on the carpet, but could not discharge it in any way but touch.
Shaman is good
There should be an option to save an "infinite" character after use to play again if you want
I agree, this character seems so damn fun to play
Maybe you can make it so all the infinite characters get stored in their own kind of character selection screen, so you can replay certain characters that you really enjoyed
That had to be the best run for Rip and Tear. You didn't even consider it. Plus the TNT near the end would've been great.
Yeah, but crown.
Naming wise, I'd go with Adept Spellblade since they get the elemental conversion but start off with a negative elemental damage and negative range. Someone mentioned battlemage, but I feel the negative range, clarifying with spellblade makes it a slightly better fit. :D
A good name for this character would be apprentice. It's scaling potential is huge, and the elemental damage with melee gives it a pupal to master kind of vibe.
I'm really enjoying the randomness of the Infinite character. It's great to see how Retro has to come up with a plan of action on the spot regarding all the [de]buffs upon starting the game.
Really like the daily character idea, would probably be a lot easier to implement than pseudo-randomized seeds.
I’ve done a good bit of brotato modding for personal characters/items and can imagine making seeds and assigning them to builds would be a huge amount of work.
If you want to do the "Daily" character, you could setup a small server which returns some keywords at random when requested, then parsing those keywords client side.
The reason to do it with a server,, instead of a seeded random, would be that you can develop them side by side - and change how the serverside functionality works without needing everyone to update their mod version. This server could also take care of the highscore as well.
Such a great character, it makes each run unique. It also makes many weapons more viable. Good job buddy!
If you add tags to the buffs the infinite can get you can also add "get a random weapon you are tagged for" in the weapon choice menu for extra chaos
Having a positive modifier to give you several copies of a common item would be pretty interesting, also a negative to give you a penalty for having weapons that aren’t different would definitely change up the game in a fun way
I'd call this the Edison. Great lightning powers through sheer brute force rather than actual talent (melee grants elemental but starting with elemental down). And you are strong because you're just super rich, like Edison. Furthermore the range down goes with the idea of his electricity needing to be wired to cover any distance, unless Tesla's experiments with wireless power. Overall it fits eeirely well I'd say.
"Emperor Palpatine", less range, strong melee, lightning, rich... the way you built him kinda fits as well... bad dodge, slow, bad luck
This is how I wanted to the game to be when you read the weapons. When Retro talked about the lightning shiv around 23:30 I felt the same way. Like this is gonna do so much damage and then it just feels disappointing the whole way through until like the final 2 levels. And that's really not enough time to have fun you know?
For a "daily" infinite chatacter, could you make a second version of the character who generates their starting seed based on some outside variable? Like it looks at the computer's time and uses the day, month, and year as a seed?
I doubt Brotato has the tools to do that conveniently, but theoretically it's a way it could work.
as a programmer I can say that it's usually the way things like this work, it should be very very doable
I would call it the Cultivator. Both for the farming and for elemental concepts of Chinese cultivation.
I really like it when you get different weapons in a run
Harvesting also gives xp, which is probably how you leveled so high
I love how you always say “welcome or welcome back” :-)
Hey,
That "Sacred Sausage" is kinda sus, Reto 😏
Lets brainstorm some *names*:
The Witcher: He drinks a lot of potions and suffers the negative effects of them
Abomination (dunno why)
Mutant
Switcher
Doppelgänger
Alchemist
Mad Modder
technically it’s possible to roll melee to elemental, elemental to engineering, and elemental to explosion size, so by spamming melee you’d have a god tier plank
I've been wanting a character that synergizes elemental and melee damage so badly...
I'v got an interesting idea for a character, it's called "Sniper", u have only 1 hp, like 1-3 tartigrades and a sniper rifle from start, and can never have more than 1 hp (hope it can be programmed like this), i guess it will be funny to watch!
An interesting perk could be:
+250 harvesting -1 harvesting for each material you have
I really like this idea, that's something I think this game is lacking - some end-game character that is unpredictable. I may propose the idea to add quirk about how many weapons can this character starts? Like negative takes 3 weapon slots and positive gives more of them?
It's about dang time I've been waiting for this one
Sokka from Last Airbender would name him: "Sparky Sparky Boom Boom"
Infinity character as daily character would be interesting
Gold conduit, the most valuable and best transfer of electricity.
Smart move modding the sCARed sausage so it's now indeed called SACRed sausage. Chapeau monsieur.
A money focused melee attacker? I'd call them the "Merchant of Death."
Pretty sure “myopic spellblade” is the perfect name for this class
Take a shot every time Retromation says “The [Blank] of it all”.
Extremely excited by these videos this will be a day one install for me! (have to find out how to run Brotato mods first)
"Elemental Duelist".
+:1 Elemental damage for each 2 Melee damage you have.
+:Starts with 1 Lightning Shiv.
-: -50 Range.
-: -50 Ranged Damage.
With the way the build turned out, Acupuncturist could have been a name, but the problem is melee weapons are so varied. Thor works for a Plasma Hammer wielder, but not these daggers.
I think - I'm definitely not sure, but - that stats granted by things like today's trait and generalist's abilities aren't calculated with those other abilities factored in, hence why that one item only thought you had 6 elemental damage, instead of 38. Presumably it calculates based off of base stats and then just adds them on post calc.
I suggested Elemental = Melee, I didn't know you already have one in the pack! Dang, I was late
I did elemental shiv build with both elements of it doing a lot. In a base game. Though, it was one-armed.. One shiv to rule them all. Speaking of "daily" character - if you can do the seed - you always can calculate that seed out of "days since 1 Jan 1970", and i think, it willl solve your logistics problem:)
I’d call this character “spellsword” since it’s melee elemental
Love me some Spud-bro
The Generator! Generates wealth and electricity
The Financialy stable Battle Mage 🧙♀️
Reto you misread it, the name of the burning item is "Sacred Sausage, I Know What I Said"
Loving the new random character!
i see retro post a brotato video, i like the video, then i watch the video
i wait everyday for this... why?... because i have to
For me the name should be: Raiden [Mortal Kombat!] :). And the daily character and random, but seeded character, are great ideas :)
Blobfish would be my hero if they put an actual option in the game for "Scared" vs "Sacred". But like, no explanation allowed about what it actually does.
(PS, I don't visit YT comments sections super-often, so I apologize if this is an annoying repost of an idea already said)
With the low range it looks like you very rarely attack enemies, yet the maps are clear.
This is obviously "The Thorogue"!
Thor because elemental zappy boy, rogue because of the ginormous moneybags.
Edit: and daggers, of course.
The lightning shiv bolt should hit the closest enemy as per lightning and also have travel to other touching enemy's like flames do.
great run
I think this guy might be Dr Strange.
Especially with his broken hands/range
oh shit it's the Spellblade
Well - not quite the same way as I said, but close enough!
Obvious name for this one would be zooooos! Or alternatively the storm
You've seen wizard with a gun, now get ready for farmer with a magic knife.
I can not think about using Strange Book an the Plank in that run.
Lion-O of the Thundercats...
I would call him Shaman King(elemental damage + crown)
Its the sword mage run 😁
its the aged battlemage
Retired SpellSword since it has the harvesting buff plus elemental buff
If you want to share a seed, just take the date AS seed. No punching in and you have a daily.
Hmm I feel a good name for this character would be something like warlock or something⚡️
Name him the storm king. He has the farmer passive/crown passive as well as being great at elemental
Is there any reason you didn't take the mice? I think it would've made the run a little more exciting to watch. Also Rip and Tear would've been so perfect, I've never seen a run more fitting than that
Name: GMO Scientist or Monsanto Employee. Harvest yield increase all the time.
The million dollar man
26:00 modding the game for “sacred” sausage lol
The Rich Kid - Advanced wealth, and the normal rules don’t apply.
Maybe try clone of your infinite, but use a seed for rng based on date. Will probably need an rng trait system that supports a seed and deterministic generation from that seed.
Not ideal, but then people could duplicate run by setting their system date to the same as when you played.
If you can mod ui then maybe you could have seed input.
Best wishes
The Electrolyte
Sir Chancellot
You could use the date as a seed if you wanted to make a daily character
It should theoretically be pretty easy to implement a daily character. If you use the date to seed the random number generator (assuming you're able to set the seed, haven't looked into brotato modding, but I'd imagine since you can access some random functionality, the random library is exposed), the character and maybe the run (if that seed is used for the shop and such) would be the same every day for anyone playing it.
It would be pretty impossible to implement a leaderboard without a massive overhaul that could threaten the useability of all current mods, simply because there's no way to detect or prevent cheating, and the ease of modding leads to an ease of cheating.
Randoo could be a name
Harvesting and Elemental damage run? That’s a Solar/Wind Farmer
The storm
Name: King of Potatoes
Elemental King
As a real character I’ll call this the overcharged
Bad item idea: missingno
Sets all stats to 9999, then crashes the game and deletes your progress forever
Name- potato head or mr potato head
I need to start modding cuz I gotta make a character like this
Lightning Reaper
If you havent done it yet, a good thing i thought would be great is that the number of random good/bad perks changes ONLY if you got killed, that would stop people to only play the character when they have 3 good perks and 1 bad perk (if you ever release the mod, I hope you do!)
Would it be possible for a character to have an ability that changes the weapons scaling percentage? If so that would be a great ability
Storm King
I would call this character Thor like the comic/movie character.
Thor, king of Asgard
Sooo taking that daily idea and running. How about if you beat the game with that random character mix, you can save the mix of pros and cons AND name them. Just for you. Give it a nice drop down list.
a battle mage run lol
Elemental harvester
Harvesting gives exp so you can reach lvl 25 easily from this build.
