Funny hearing the discussion in this one about an elite that would reflect damage, and how it would be a terrible idea because after a few stages in a lot of runs you are dealing damage to many things outside of your control. And yet, Twisted elites.
Yes. As an Overwatch player for years, taking breaks when you're not feeling it is normal and necessary. For me, I have a rotation with OW, Fortnite, Risk of Rain, and Slay the Spire, which keeps all the games feeling fresh when I come back to them. Hope this helps!
I've been inspired lately to do my own eclipse climb, I'm down to just 3 characters, Captain, Mercenary, and REX. I've been saving rex for last on purpose but as I've been playing and learning there's a very good chance I'm going to decide Engineer or Artificer was harder.
if people are confused by ghost grandparents sun attack hurting them, i ask them one thing. do you think you can survive the unmatched power of the sun, regardless of which team the sun is on?
Mod creators spend hours and hours play testing and balancing modded characters to ensure they 1: fit into ror and 2: aren’t broken overpowered. I commissioned, suggested changes and play tested the modded character Pantheon. I think he’s actually underpowered in some aspects and overall well balanced. Just a thought.
I feel quite the same about modded characters which is why there's really only two that I've kept in my modlist. Deputy and Rocket, and Deputy is probably the most balanced character mod that I actually enjoyed playing with. (Sorry Miner.)
I think rocket would be a good character to play because he's not op and is even weaker than some of the vanilla survivors and has a bit of a high skill ceiling due to his gimmick. plus he's super fun like loader fun
You said in the video that you don't like overpowered characters but have you ever tried HIFUs rebalance mod? I feel that it does a good job rebalancing and even recontextualizing the characters
I'm never sure When to take plimp over AtG? would you consider it to always be an upgrade, or what other parameters do you consider? In my head i go back an forth between ATG is good on high attack speed because more procs and AtG is good on high dmg because better procs
Not sure what Race's opinion on this is but personally I think plasma shrimp is generally better all-round since it's a higher average damage increase (and you get an extra stack by picking it up) and it's more consistent (like on loader it'll proc on every punch instead of having to rely on the 10% chance which is pretty uncommon with a character like that). It's also worth noting that plasma shrimp is unaffected by proc coefficient as long as it's greater than 0, whereas AtG is. This means an item like polylute that has a proc coefficient of 0.2 has only a 1/50 chance of firing an AtG but a 100% chance to fire a plasma shrimp. There are a few situations where I think it's worth not picking up plasma shrimp though. AtG has a proc coefficient of 1 whereas plasma shrimp has a proc coefficient of 0.2 so AtGs can be better if you have a lot of proc items like sticky bombs or charged/molten perforators. AtG also benefits from clover but plasma shrimp does not so if you have a bunch of clovers AtG is usually better. I can't give an exact rule to follow since there are so many factors that affect it but generally: -It's never a bad idea to pick up plasma shrimp on stage 1 when you don't know what your build is gonna be, sometimes it'll turn out to be worse but usually it won't -Clovers make AtG better -Lots of sticky bombs and similar items make AtG better -Polylutes make plasma shrimp better
Even after removing StarStorm 2 and MysticsItems (I heard this one also caused problems) it still broke during the crystal phase, and I'm not sure what to do about it. I've currently disabled Umbral Mithrix, because it's not possible for me currently since the crystals around the arena don't spawn in.
The solution is to disable more mods lol. If you used umbral with an otherwise vanilla mod profile it would work every time so obviously you're using some conflicting mod
What type of mods would be causing the conflicting problems? Like, is it AI altering based, item additions, character reworks, or should I just keep disabling mods until it works? If just disable until it works, I don't want to just be grinding several hours just to get to the moon each time lol
Use debug toolkit and tp to the moon with commands, give yourself items and test. Best thing you can do is stop using your giant list of mods though and start fresh with umbral, add a few mods at a time
2:22 Ingition tank: Gain combust, charge up a Combust for your next attack causing an explosion that deals 200% damage and Ingites all targets hit. Increase Ingite's damage by 300% turning into a Greater burn.
question for comment section (and/or race if he sees this) when i eventually do my captain climb, should i stick to diablo or orbital probe? i LOVE diablo, but im not that skilled with it, and 1000% damage as my hardest hitting attack feels like a lame use of bands, even if its way way way more versatile

I beat the game with a few survivors on Monsoon including Artificer. Is that considered decent or no?
@@TheJolsbout average; have you done eclipse during the four months?
@@shock-1048 never even tried eclipse. Love the game though. Will play more when new dlc. There is supposed to be new dlc right?

The Sun encompasses all, and those who call upon it are the only ones immune to its magnificence. Praise the Sun
I thought the void fog damage increased the more you stay in it, are you getting back to the bubble to reset the damage?
it doesnt, thats only void seeds and simulacrum
Always a good day when Race uploads a cool run!
I always will love your content Race, and I hope you continue to enjoy making it! Much love man, and great video as always.

Hey Race, do you have any tips for that feeling when you want to play a game but at the same time you're not really feeling it?
(or anyone, really)

Kami 8:26 was slick
Captain is deffo one the best characters in the game thanks to beacons and Diablo, especially Diablo. Its busted as hell

talks about modded characters being broken. Proceeds to one shot the harder version of mythrix with a vanilla character

no reason not to practice with a skill you enjoy to be better with it, go with what skills you like and you'll win with them and enjoy the game more

How do you snipe wisps from mid-long range in an instant like that? i always find myself rather overwhelmed early game as cap in e8
i think he’s just charging the shotgun if that’s what you’re talking about?
@@jack04dp He did it pretty fast at the start of the video, he sniped like 2 wisps in a row
does anyone know any other spots that you can trap enemies in, like that underbridge spot in stage 4 with the shock beacon?

Was wondering why he didnt pick up some items even though they wouldnt have hurt the build? Am i missing info that i should know?
