I just finished my first run with Pacifist and never thought how incredible Speed is. Nobody could touch me. I remember for future runs not to neglect it.
If I'm not mistaken, you don't benefit from Gentle Alien's increased enemy spawns because the enemy cap starts being reached pretty much every wave past wave 5ish. It would be nice if despawned enemies also counted towards the Pacifist's income.
At 18:39 you bought Ugly Tooth. But wanted to mention you overlooked it earlier on at 3:54 . Unique items sometimes aren't Unique weirdly enough. Great video!
Thanks very much! yes, I definitely should have mentioned it, but I think seeing it that early I probably passed on it deliberately, since in the first few shops you're really concerned with getting your weapon set and core stats online, so later-game focused items should sometimes be ignored. And yeah as you say, uniques can still show up when you pass them - it just means you can't buy two of them. That's one reason it's generally good to buy uniques, pulling them out of the shop pool by buying them improves your future shops.
Started this class for the first time and a few waves in I think to myself "wait.. how am I going to kill the boss" I didn't get the chance to even try
Is there actually any point in upgrading your Hands past like Wave 12? Does the extra harvesting ever catch up to how much you're investing in extra Hands by that point?
Just watching that video and since you asked about video ideas - one thing which would be very cool would be a video on how to set up manual aim and how to utilize it efficiently. I know that it exists but I don't really know how to set it up and when to utilize it/how it even really works :) Also, why exactly does it make sense to take gentle alien with this class (since you never kill enemies anyway)? Is there any benefit apart from the max hp?
I like that idea! I should really cover settings and stuff for the game at some point. You take gentle alien because you gain materials for every living enemy at the end of the wave, so it still increases your income (there's some confusion i think about whether the ones that despawn because you've hit the unit cap count, but I think they do)
Good question! I mention in my item tier list that I think boxing glove is a waste of money even for pacifist; +3 knockback is only a 10% increase over the 30 the hand already gives you, and that 30 is more than enough already to keep enemies off you. To be honest I think they could buff that item to +10 or +15 knockback without it ever being a problem (and I still mostly wouldn't buy it)
I really only play this on mobile sadly, so I still don't have access to the renegade or king. Finally getting fisherman this week is awesome for his item lol but my biggest thing is when you bring up the manual targeting. On mobile, there is no manual targeting, so pacifist is even MORE frustrating to play lol same goes for engi builds where you just constantly smack enemies directly into yourself. Also don't have this circle attacks boss you got on wave 12
Don’t you still get more money from killing enemies? I got the wave 20 elites down to half health when I tried to make a damage focused pacifist. Took about 30 tries
I don't think you can manual aim on Xbox. On other games like this, The right stick will override the auto aim but it doesn't seem to do anything for this one. And I just can't get past this class.
I haven't played on xbox, but I know manual aiming isn't available on mobile. On PC, you have to go into settings and turn on "Manual aim on mouse press," so maybe that's an option on xbox also?
New player here, i absolutely HATE this character!!! Im nearing completing a run with ALL characters & this one sucks imo! Ive failed twice already, its so unintuitve!!! Literally dying on "0" difficulty coz of playing the character correctly, as in LOADS of unkilled enemies. Am i meant to kill some or what?
You could Do A Run Where you Roll the Dice On what to Pick or Do with the Skills If you skip or try to pick all the Traits up that would be Fun not Knowing if the Dice Messes your game up or Rewards you.
@@Cephalopocalypse Yeah I just Randomly came to your chanell you could mindstorm all kinds of Ideas the Random Part is for when you know how to beat the game but want no influence on the Traits.
It's definitely tough! You really have to think about the game very differently. It's all about getting your economy running so you can afford the defensive stats you need.
I just finished my first run with Pacifist and never thought how incredible Speed is. Nobody could touch me. I remember for future runs not to neglect it.
I got adrenaline on a run and I was able to practically stand still for round 20. Great guide, thanks!!
Thanks for all your guides makes easier to enjoy the game
Never thought that there would be a pacifist tato in this game, thought this to be a mad impossibility 😮 Nicely done!
There's a lot of cool character designs in this game and they sometimes play really differently. It's a very simple game but executed very well imo
dude is the faster open palm slapper in the west
I really love your guide videos. Your explaination is always on point
Thanks so much! Glad they're helping and I appreciate the kind words! :D
This was super helpful and was able to get to 35 on my next try after watching this 🙏🏻
Thank you. Only character I was having difficulty with and nailed ot first time after watching this.
Thought I would never get through that. Fortunately got lucky on the hands and harvesting and finally got the win. Thank you for all your help!
Nice, congrats! Glad the guide helped :D
Great vid. This series is pure gold
Thanks for the guide man! Really enjoyed the video and thanks to you, now I beat it with pacifist 😄
Thanks to your explained walkthrough i was able to complete pacifist run.
Awesome, glad to hear it helped!
You dont stop enemies from spawning if you stay on the X marked spot. They just spawn somewhere different at random i think.
Learned so much that was unrelated to the specific walkthrough 👍
If I'm not mistaken, you don't benefit from Gentle Alien's increased enemy spawns because the enemy cap starts being reached pretty much every wave past wave 5ish.
It would be nice if despawned enemies also counted towards the Pacifist's income.
I had never considered that, but that's probably true! A rare case where gentle alien may not be the best item in the game - good catch!
@barkeddog despawned enemies do count
great video bro thank you!
At 18:39 you bought Ugly Tooth. But wanted to mention you overlooked it earlier on at 3:54 . Unique items sometimes aren't Unique weirdly enough. Great video!

@@CephalopocalypseOhh, this is really interesting - I didn't know that, thank you :)
Have you done Cyborg yet? I'd like to see that one. I liked it when I tried it out, but I felt like I was missing something
Haha, perfect timing - that was literally today's video :D
Pacifist but likes to throw hands.
On a few levels you had the chance to buy Boxing Glove (+3 knockback) is there a reason you didn't?
Good question! I mention in my item tier list that I think boxing glove is a waste of money even for pacifist; +3 knockback is only a 10% increase over the 30 the hand already gives you, and that 30 is more than enough already to keep enemies off you.

@@Cephalopocalypse thank you! Im new to the game and still trying to figure some things out. Your videos are really helpful by the way
@@bmaschal No problem! Glad they're helping :)
@@Cephalopocalypse +15 would probably open for very different builds, like SMGs and minigun. Could be great for the soldier.
I did well with 2 red tasers and 4 red hands… but i was just trying to survive past 20rnd.. achievement hunting
Somehow my first and second Danger 5 wins are Explorer and Pacifist, two classes that literally don't need / want to hit enemies.
Helps streamline a build. Ignore enemies, build tank and run away

Oh yeah, I hadn't thought about how different controls must be on mobile and how much harder that makes some characters. I believe in you though!
Don’t you still get more money from killing enemies?
I got the wave 20 elites down to half health when I tried to make a damage focused pacifist. Took about 30 tries
You could’ve at least pushed back that giant wave on wave one

@@Cephalopocalypse hey it IS there. Thank you! I think that'll give me a little edge in this run. Thanks for taking the time for me!
I Did it first try back with manual aiming. Lol Thanks again. Last one for me is fisherman.@@Cephalopocalypse
New player here, i absolutely HATE this character!!!

Am i meant to kill some or what?
2nd last charcter on danger 5 for me thanks to your videos.
But i play on mobile so knock back sucks and manual aim isnt a thing.

That's a fun idea! And sounds really hard, I might try livestreaming that :D
@@Cephalopocalypse Yeah I just Randomly came to your chanell you could mindstorm all kinds of Ideas the Random Part is for when you know how to beat the game but want no influence on the Traits.
So Imagine For A Trait you need to sell a Weapon to Obtain It
I'll try full on damage pacifist...
it's a hard and annoying road.
i did succeed but in danger 4
How do you get shield I'm on pc is it a mod
Unlock it by winning with Masochist - for a full list and what order to do that in, see my Unlock Order Guide ;)
Nice😂 gagged on the mic
Passafist is broken
This looks way to easy for what it is, they destroyed me on Danger 2 in the mid-late game
I still suck at brotato
this class sucks the most, still can't do it
It's definitely tough! You really have to think about the game very differently. It's all about getting your economy running so you can afford the defensive stats you need.
