I'm surprised and slightly disappointed that Marked doesn't work with Thorns, bc I'm pretty sure it does apply to damage from some non-attack sources like artifacts and mutations. Agreed that the wording suggests it should work. Anyone know how it interacts with poison, banefire, etc? Anyway: these last couple of videos have been so impressive! I've been doing okay on the harder difficulties, but even when I'm strong it feels like a bit of a slog. Very cool seeing you effortlessly turn some pretty big negatives into "doesn't affect me"s, or even into positives like in the last video. Chaos Demon aside, of course!
I think this build is an awesome example of how you don't back down from a creative challenge! You were on the hardest difficulty, and you STILL went for a build that had no attacks and STILL pulled it off like you usually do. That's always the most fun part about watching your videos.
yea I too have the feeling that Chaos Demon is just a little bit too annoying for the rewards it provides lmao Also, good to know a pure thorns build works well, will definitely be trying it
@@Retromationin the argument for victory vs content I also agree. Testing your luck with such a solid win would just feel bad if you lost; and you would have been inundated with comments saying how it was stupid to try
I would have been here to see it! Even if that elite smashed you I hope you´d upload such a run because we want to see experimentation and end results are less important to me :)@@Retromation
I had similar with mutation stage 1 but had a single attack spell and sat there just seeing how big I could make my def on the final boss. It was a challenge for myself. I had one skill which improves power by 1 every round, so it was slowly building, and 700+ def. It was really fun. I hope they don't have a psychotic episode or whatever and change it as that would suck the fun out of the game. Too many games with zero fun, where they don't encourage experimentation and they forget about the fun aspect.
Your ability to make these simple yet amazing builds never ceases to amaze me
For the whole run I just kept hearing “stop hitting yourself” in my head 🤣
I felt the need to add forehead idky lol

Now i just need to see an overburn build and I will have seen them all!
There really should be an achievement/unlock for killing a boss without attacking it!
Hands down the best build you've had yet. That ice ward was disgusting
So much fun to watch. Block builds are my favorites. Probably my tank class preference showing it's head in a Rouge light. Ty for the vid.
I just got the game and apparently... the game is hard... 😂
You make it looks ez, Reto
Did this just the other day. It's so fun that you're given the ability to win a run with no attack spells. Brilliant game design.

I think this might be the strongest build in the game. It was one of the first ones I won with. Had 250 block and 40+ thorns.
What an absolutely crazy built , you did it again you crazy son of a gun 😂
Reto you one crazy guy , only in a good way lol 😎
what a unhinged fun run.
I still wanted the elites, i think there's a way you could have won against scary void guy, especially with the barrier and thorns build up
why bother, it would just make the run longer at best, possibly throw for no reason at worst

Has any1 tried weakness build? Damn its so insane was 1 shotting every elite
Is void guy the time eater of this game, or is he even worse?
Nice
🤣 dis run was so much fun! gg
Obligatory comment for the awesome video! This was one of the coolest runs I’ve ever seen.
Pacifist run babyyyyy
For the algorithm
block + poison is best but boring
block + thorn is second best but also boring
