  • Another day, another broken risk of rain 2 item. We are going to be looking at the bug lunar item and deciding whether or not this item is the newest shaped glass or just a weird item nobody should get.
    Transcendence has been in the game for a while but only recently have I discovered why it could be so good. Wanna know everything about it? Watch the whole video!

    He can’t even get near you because he is to slow it basically makes the boss fight super easy because the only time he can damage you is when he is near and you can just back up and he is to slow to catch up I was playing Rex and when I used tangling growth he could not even move forward (normal without chronoboble he would just teleport out of the area of the tangling growth but mithrix doesn’t seem to teleport around with the slowness

    One of my favorite "gimmick builds" is to take Transcendence alongside Aegis and lifesteal items. Since you only have 1 hp, any healing counts as overflow for Aegis as so you'll get a barrier denser than a neutron star just my smacking some mooks.

    I feel like the biggest disadvantage of transcendence is that it makes multiple items useless. You pick a transandece on an 1 hour run. Now, your 10 medkits, your 2 rejuv rakcs, 5 cautious slugs, 5 harvester scythes? All useless. Except the harvester scythes, atleast you have some crits.

      Arguably that's a good thing in longer runs and multiplayer. Now all those useless healing items can be scrapped and printed into more damage/utility resulting in a stronger character overall, or handed over to your teammates for a stronger team overall, while all of your "healing" is taken care of by Transcendence.

      Think of it this way, now that you don't need to rely on healing items you can safely scrap them all and afford to use printers and cauldrons more effectively. It would hurt more for your healing reds since there's less application for red scrap, but it's not like you're finding them every single run, at least not too long before being irrelevant. Edit, basically what harrison said too. The downside is more of an upside.

    i still think that maybe some sort of buff for shields in general would be okay, mainly because the con of losing a lot of your health at once and having to not get hit for nine seconds is sorta annoying to work around. my main idea for a buff is that maybe some attacks do less damage, maybe ones like projectiles (the same type that captain can block, not hitscan like wisps and golems) do 15% less damage, that way it has a challenge to it while giving a pretty good buff, especially with melee characters and squishies, while making the pick less useful for others like captain.

  • @aduck4202
    @aduck4202 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Ive done a 6 million hp run with some Transcendence and tons of infusions and personal shield generators (PSG), and learned some interesting stuff:
    1) 8:13 All Items which increases your health (Infusion, titanic knurl, Spinel Tonic and pearls (i haven't tested them yet)) DO increase your PSG shield. PSG is based on your health but ignores transcendence. Your health doesn't increase much by leveling up. If you are level 30 with commando, you only have 1067 hp. Having 400 PSG will only increase your maximum health to 35211. If you had 100 infusions, your health would be 11067. Add the 400 PSG and you get a maximum health of 365211. Add spinel tonic and it will also increase.
    2) Upon reaching 10k health getting hit is not a problem. Add a permanent Jade Elephant and you are pretty much immortal. You can tank Mithrix easily.
    3) The biggest challenge with massive health is getting barrier. Barrier decays 3,33% of your max health per second. If you have 10k health, you are loosing 333 barrier every second. If you have an Aegis but you don't have Transcendence, getting a Corpsebloom is a good idea because it will double your healing and apply it over time.
    4) The easiest character to achieve massive hp is Loader. You don't need to stack healing items, and you don't need topaz brooch (which are a waste when you have high hp). You can spend all in PSG and infusions, so your maximum health will increase much faster than the other characters.

    i don't think transcendence really boosts n'kuhana's. the damage from n'kuhana's is based on overhealing and max health. so basically having a bigger health pool means you have less missiles that hit harder, but the total damage is still based on the amount overhealed. only things that increase healing will boost n'kuhana damage

    It's near instant and I don't need to wait 9 whole seconds for it to refill in hectic moments. I just need to dish out more dps.

    The result was that taking ANY amount of damage made no difference, because the shield regen would start as soon as the Strides animation ended.
    The ONLY threat to my run were the Reavers.
    The run went over 300 minutes, and was one of the funniest Mithrix kills I have ever gotten.

    With REX on eclipse, you kinda have to cheese it with other lunar items like gesture or shaped glass. glass is amazing for a few reasons, being it reduces the damage you deal to yourself and doubles the healing you do from your primary. Of course healing becomes less valuable if you don't have a lot of health but I beat Eclipse 6 with 3 shaped glass after finding an aegis, and I would kill everything before I could die, and the only hits I would take were less than my aegis barrier.

    People need to stop calling health “hit points”. Health is the green or red part of you hp bar, sheild is the blue part of your hp bar. Those combined make up your hit points (hp) and barrier is a yellow bar on top of your hp bar (like a barrier or sumthing)

    • @sipofsunkist9016
      @sipofsunkist9016 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      WHY DOES THIS MATTER AT ALL.
      Your sheild is based on your health and that makes up your hp. And barrier is based on your hp not health
      Also 1 shot protection is based on your hp not your health. These words are NOT interchangeable in risk of rain

    I still think shields in general need some sort of rework. 7-9 seconds is a long time in combat and can already be megadelayed my dot damage. Kick down the regen timer and kick down the regen per sec at the very least, and/or to make it worth taking PSG without transcendence, maybe you get some sort of buff ie +dmg on shield depletion

    something I'd like to point out is that you use "HP" very frequently.
    Distinguishing between "Health points" (max health) and "Hit points" (max health + max shield) would have made your explanations a lot more clear.
    Just a thought :)

    i might just be a huntress/captain/engineer main, but i've always found shields to be useless if i get a couple glasses and a scythe.
    huntress: flurry hits 6 times per crit, so htiting two crits in a row = 88 health. grab a predatory instinct and some attack speed, and you'll be able to heal up to full hp from zero in maybe a second- and do it while being hurt as well. shields are near useless, because huntress doesn't need them.
    captain: again, one crit of m1 = 8 hits of scythe. that's 64 health per crit, assuming every pellet hits, and that basically means that if you hit someone with your m1 you get like a tenth of your health back instantly. add that to the fact that you'll be taking a lot less damage and it makes shields viable but much less powerful imo.
    engineer: bungus first off- but there's also the fact that you'll be staying away from enemies and being generally a nuisance with thermal harpoon rather than using your m1 to kill. in this case, mobile turrets + transcendance is *alright* but still, getting nearly instantly killed and then having to run away is boring imo

      @@rndThursday yeah, it's really up to rng. i'd say that usually, because i'm a trash gamer and play on rainstorm and STILL die a lot on first stage, and also because my luck doesnt exist, i'd pick without transcendance. it's a good, reliable tool for healing earlygame, but a single monster tooth or a couple medkits will be better in general and cleansing pools are difficult to find (though, i may eventually try for a run where i just try and find a cleansing pool with as many lunars as possible. that sounds fun.)
      on the other hand, trying for transcendance with a lot of stealthkits and teddies would be great- esp. on engineer, who would get much more usage out of it.

      @@trigger7ff6 A single monster tooth will only give you 8 static +2% HP. On anything but the first three stages you're going to need to kill dozens of monsters *and* then collect their orbs. The other factor you need to keep in mind for longer runs, is that those 20 whites and 6 greens you've dedicated to conventional healing, can now all be scrapped and poured into any printers you find. Finding a transcendence later in on a long run is like turning on the budget version of the Command Relic. All healing items are now damage items, or can be converted into reds in the newt shop.

    • @trigger7ff6
      @trigger7ff6 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@UnknownSquid earlygame, a single monster tooth can easily be a great source of healing even up to the fourth stage. because it's 2% of your hp PER ball, that just means you need 50 monsters to immediately heal to full- and in the first few teleporters you get that many monsters if you just wait, and in the fourth stage you just have enough anyways.
      for longer runs, i understand that you can scrap unnecessary healing items, but i play one of three survivors normally (though i do know other survivors wouldn't be similarly effected as much). huntress with flurry = hit one thing and immediately regain like half of your health, and at the very least get a ~~+48 hp/s regen bonus, captain with m1 = hit one thing and immediately regain half your health, and get a lot of mileage out of on hit healing, and engineer = bungus or bust.
      still, it's really up to you. i find having to wait nine seconds only really feasible in the earlygame, because i'm a trash gamer who has very little spatial awareness

      @@trigger7ff6 If you don't know, Proc Coefficient affects on-hit healing items like Leeching Seed and Harvester's Scythe. If you have a Proc Coefficient of .5, Leeching Seeds heal for .5 HP per hit and Harvester Scythe's heal for 4 (+2 stacking) HP per critical hit. For example:
      Huntress's Flurry has a .7 Proc Coefficient which reduces the on hit heal of the Scythe to 5.6 making a single crit with Flurry heal for 6 x 5.6 = 33.6 HP per critical hit. That's roughly a third of Huntress's health at level 1. The decimals aren't shown in game, but they are definitely used.
      Captain's M1 also has a .75 Proc Coefficent for 6 HP per pellet with Harvester's Scythe, for a total of 48 HP per crit with a Scythe if all 8 shots hit.
      This isn't to say these are bad numbers, far from it actually, but they're slightly not as good as you're putting them out to be.

    educational vidoeo; calls "N'Kuhana" Neyhookana.
    Nuh-Koo-Ha-Na
    N'kuhana
    Nuh-Koo-Ha-Na
    Edit: A script would do you wonders. There's a lot of mixed terminology that you use. Which isn't a problem in a normal video, but here, it's just confusing. So, I'm going to actually rewrite this whole video in summary here for everyone watching to use as reference.
    TLDR: Transcendence good on eclipse. Healing better for normal/maao.
    Key notes about your health bar.------
    The green/red health bar is your health. This can be regenerated passively by your normal regeneration rate, regeneration items (items that say "regenerate" in the tooltip), and by health gain items (items that give you health for fulfilling certain requirements ((Harvester's Scythe requires you to crit for health gain.))
    The blue health bar is your shields. He actually covered shields really well. 2:50
    The clear bar is Curse. Curse is a negative effect given by Shaped Glass, The Artifact of Glass, and the Eclipse 8 modifier. While this effect reduces your HP, it is considered an HP value and will remove OSP (Covered in "One Shot Protection" below)
    ++++++++++++++Your total combined health bar will now be considered HP (Hit Points)+++++++++++++++
    (The yellow health bar is your Barrier. Topaz Brooch and Aegis can give you Barrier. They have tooltips. This does not contribute to your combined hp.)
    How to heal.------
    As stated in your green/red health bar, you'll need items to gain health. Using these items while having a Transcendence will still heal you, but your hp is locked at 1. I'm not going to go over every item, just notables and synergies.
    N'Kuhana's Opinion - This item will still fire out projectiles based on your store healing and max hp. Healing through health gain will add 100% of that healing to your stored pool. Once reaching 10% of your maximum HP in stored healing, you will fire a projectile to a nearby enemy. If there are no nearby enemies, it will save the projectile and you can stack and invisible amount of projectiles by healing more. This does not interact with Aegis.
    Aegis - Since your hp is 1, all healing you receive from health gain is converted to Barrier at 50% rate. This item does not interact with regeneration.
    Infusion - This item will give you 150~ HP per stack while Transcendence is held.
    Titanic Knurl - This item will give you 60~ HP instead of 40, but no regeneration.
    Personal Shield Generator - 7:43 This item will not synergise with Transcendence. It will only give you 8% of what your *health*, not hp. It is however affected by Infusion. Giving an additional 8 Shields per stack of Infusion, even with Transcendence.
    Rejuvenation Rack - Has no synergy with Transcendence, but can be of use when combined with an aegis, as your new health gain value will be doubled, and all health gain is instantly converted into Barrier.
    One Shot Protection------ 8:43
    He covered it really well, but if you don't know how OSP works, it's way more important to explain it correctly than to cover it with Transcendence.
    OSP will stop A SINGLE DAMAGE SOURCE from dealing more than 90% of your combined HP.
    ex. 1: You have 100 hp. You take 1,000 damage from a single source. OSP takes place and you instead take 90 damage and have 10 hp remaining.
    ex. 2: You have 100 hp, and 100 Barrier. You take 1,000 damage from a single source. OSP takes place and you instead take 190 damage and have 10 hp remaining.
    ex.3: You have 100 hp and 100 Barrier. You a Greater Wisp catches you with both projectiles and hits you twice for 500 damage each. The "first" ball to hit you deals 500 damage, and takes your OSP, leaving you with 10 hp. Then the second ball hits and leaves you with -490 hp. You are dead. Consider playing on Drizzle. Rekt.
    Curse. Because curse is considered hp, you will no longer have OSP after losing more than 9.9% of your max hp to curse.
    Why to take Transcendence? -------
    Fall damage. It can only deal 2 damage maximum. One normally, two with The Artifact of Frailty or Eclipse 3.
    So, Transcendence is much better when fall damage is a larger threat. New players who fall a lot or players using eclipse or MAAO (mainly Frailty)
    In ecplise, aside from it saving you from curse from fall damage, it can supplement a bad healing run. Because 9 seconds is better than minutes to regen or heal with bad items.
    So if you're playing Eclipse or otherwise going for a short run, Transcendence has tremendous value. It's baseline is much higher than healing items or regeneration. However, it's maximum effectiveness has no comparison to healing. You can stack enough healing items to become immortal. And with more healing items, means there are more healing synergies. For example, in a god run, you can have N'Kuhana's Opinion, Harvester's Scythe (with 100% crit), Bustling Fungus, Aegis, and Razor Wire, to be able to sit in the middle of a teleporter event and not die, while killing everything. This is simply not as applicable with Transcendence. The damage will be similar, but the survivability drops significantly.
    I think this about wraps up the educational part of the video.
    To rndThursday,
    Sorry for shitting all over your video, but being wrong in an educational format is unforgivable. I still love your videos, and have been checking my sub box for you recently! (recent subscriber) Either way, the comment will get you higher in the algorithm so, it's a win-win.
