I say you mod a meme character into the game. Something like: Name: Dex The Unlucky. Traits: -Starts with one max-rolled cursed Dextroyer. -Weapons do not appear in the shop. -Every wave and every level up, all damage stats and attack speed% +1 (will help with the fact you only have one weapon). -Start with 100 curse and -100 luck (to represent your very clear real life cursed luck when it comes to getting the Dextroyer).
Thrilled to finally join this amazing community to support one of the greatest TH-camrs! It may not be much, but I'm truly happy to become a member. Keep rocking, Dex! Your Brotato videos are both entertaining and a blast to watch! 🎉🙌
Love the videos Dex! You're responsible for so much lost productivity while working from home. Have you tried a 6 flute lucky build yet? It scales like absolute craaazy once you start getting pearls.
Dex, I have something to confess. The game decided to bequeath onto me a DEXtroyer while I was in the middle of a Mage run. Naturaly, I bought the glorious thing despite it's steep price and near-zero synergy, all in hopes that the universe would somehow resonate with my actions and bless you with the only weapon you rightfully deserve. Herein lies the folly of my generous act. The game, sensing my apparent need of melee weapons, decided to give me ANOTHER DEXtroyer. I was baffled, confused, mildly bamboozled. This was not my intention, no. I wished to share in this joyous moment with another, one who would no doubt be delighted for the gift the universe and RNG-esus have bestowed upon me. In that very moment, I knew what had to be done. I sold the rest of my weapons, picked up the second sword, and descended onto the horde. I died. I died a valiant death (not really, barely tickled them due to 0 scaling). Now, my spirit carries with it the essence of the mighty DEXtroyer, and the two swords have been returned to the loot pool (that's how it works, right). May they reach you in your time of need. Also, happy halloween 🎃🎃🎃
Dex i think your own weapon is so powerful that the game breaks literally so i suppose the game will only give it to you when you truly need it. Great video as always keep up the good work😄
The thing with the item that gives you +HP regen on level up is two fold. First it's a blue meaning you can get it in the first half a dozen waves, which means it builds up a lot. And second it synergises with the extra levels from more enemies and +XP hard. Some other useful notes. It's not a unique, you can stack several of them for insane amounts of regen, (like better than Torture by wave 20). The cursed version gives +2 regen per level up. It's free after you get it, that might sound dumb, but even +10HP regen by wave 20 is a lot if you have other defences, and that means you can focus on dodge or armour way more, so it becomes many times more effective. +10Hp regen if you get there via other items or level up stats isn't great because of how much investment it takes, but getting it just with time and a small cash outlay saves a lot of resources, so you can afford to combine it with something else.
I have nothing against mods at all, in fact I have a bunch of modded videos on my channel. What that was referring to was something big that exhausts future possibilities and drains the experience, like a lot of new items/weapons/characters. GMO mod for example is in my feeling totally fine, just that most combinations are either impossible to play or completely broken.
At minute 27 when you didnt know why you didnt curse the plank, it was because a comon plank takes 3 rounds to max out, so its 3 less armor from the anvil
at 27:03 you were talking about how the anvil gives bonus armor when you have all red weapons, meaning if you cursed a blue or white plank it'd give you no armor for a few waves
The hooks's curse chance is not additive, it's a separate chance to happen per hook. That's why not that many items got cursed. There is a mod that allows you to start with a basic version of any weapon in the game, but I have no idea if the new weapons have been added to it.
About the explosion opacity: I'm dealing with a concussion, so hopefully my words hold a little weight - from the accessibility side of things, I think you're more or less right in that when you have a small explosion size any opacity is fine, but when you get to say ~40℅ of the active area (field of view, which changes when you zoom) it starts getting a bit much. It also depends on the frequency, so I'd say if you have a ranged explosion with piercing/bounce then it's probably a bit much, but a melee weapon is much more bearable. Basically once it gets to that point it's kind of unwatchable; I've looked away before (during the test wave)/stopped watching (if you keep it on) once or twice due to explosion/bullet opacity.
You asked about explosion opacity. It's fine for me how you do it, but I do remember seeing someone complaining on a precious video that it's too high and could trigger epilepsy.
The explosion opacity of 5% is fine, though I would like 10% a bit more. I think 0% is a little bit irritating, cause you don't see the edges of your kill zone.
I wonder if Dex put the mod backwards and made it more likely for items. Because 50% change to see a legendary weapon with every red item and there was around 15 or so, that would be incredibly unlucky
Did any red weapons show up in the shop? I wonder if the mod Dex used broke the game? 5% explosion opacity was fine for the most part for me, I had stopped thinking about it until dex pointed it out lol.
If you're going into endless with Melee weapons. I have been having a lot of success with getting a lot of range to keep myself out of danger. Also you should try playing Lucky with the Lutes. It's actually really good. I think Lucky is one of the most broken Taters right now. Especially with the Pearls. I made it to round 84 and stopped because 1 frame per second isn't fun.
@@DexTag Well. You have to eat fruit to get luck with Druid. Lucky just has 25% luck modifications. So if you end up with a run where you get bonus items from chests, Get a lot of XP gain, and can generate a lot of money. Your luck skyrockets. Plus you can greed luck early because Lucky's passive helps kill the enemies. Don't forget the new item that makes level ups give more bonus's. I could be wrong but I think scaling luck on Lucky seems a lot easier. Plus dodging the poison fruit can be annoying.
@@chaoschris8194 I sold all my weapons on danger 5 Wave 84. and the turrets, plus the many elephants and cyber balls killed the boss's and everything else. It is insane.
funny thing how after the dlc update, negative luck is better? at least in my experience, having negative almost everytime gives me legendary weapons, multiple good red items.
Pretty sure that's just random chance, cause the math behind it doesn't check out. Each rarity has a chance to appear the legendary weapons have - up to my knowledge - the same chance as any other red weapon to appear, but it's capped at 8% and the pool is shared with everything tier 4, so all items and tier 4 of every single weapon, making them so rare.
@@DexTag its actually been a thing in the past, having negative luck was better. But now im quite consistently getting good stuff with negative luck too. (but ye, probably just a coincidence)
Its probably soft coded into the game, that the streamers/creators that have personalized items in the game, don't get said items often. ;D Would generate more content, cause they want to win a run with their item, like you.
Dex casually finding 7 planks per reroll in 3 waves i'm really starting to find there exists a mod for content creators that makes it so they choose their shops or a portion of them
@DexTag i think you understand what i mean either imoyou reset until you get what younw1nt before wave 5 or a mod or idk cause every time you play something you get at the start what you need be it planks rn or flints last video and the hook I've been trying to play the dlc myself each time i wanna go somewhere i dont find anything i need
Dear Dex, can you explain why Shredder's explosions doesn't scale with explosion size item? or it's so little scaling? love your videos, currently watching this and waiting for Dex-troyer)
@DexTag thanks! yes, noticed this a couple of minutes ago. compare to the explosion size of consumables it feels sooooo small) wish you a RIDICULOUSLY great run with finding your weapon at the 9th wave! again, big thanks for your content
Mine is legendary explosive, the 2 are unrelated. The best I could do to bump up odds is to get legendary, explosive or both of them, with no other trait active
Seeing you talk about purposely going down half health to heal what kind of character we could do a run with that? The bull had a mechanic like that when he is hit he explodes isnt?
if you have the new GMO mod allowing you to combine 3 characters try triple Renegade, math is so broken when +%dmg is actually negative and vice versa :D

Dex's quest to play with his own sword continues....
And he still fails to reach completion...
He may never finish...
@@BritishBuffoon honestly, what a goon...
That's on a different website 👀
I love playing with dex’s sword 😫 i got a hold of it today and it exploded all over
It is hilarious that the dev programmed the sword to never show up specifically your game
Id did show up last video
I say you mod a meme character into the game. Something like:

Welcome aboard and thanks a lot!
The zoom in of shame when he's wondering why his +4 armor is only +2
Okay I think the weapon had enough chances. It’s time to just say fck it and start with 6 of them and have an incredible run
woe. -100 max hp
@@i55ed Mod the character who starts with 6 to start with 100 extra HP.
he can't, the game doesn't start if you mod it now
And do it on ghost since he loves armor so much
Dex will forever be left without playing with his weapon.

Yo Dex, Love the Brotato series you have going on rn!
"Money is more important than life." 😂 True! This run had me cracking up!
I just dies with the "wet fart into the wind, you end up with a return to sender"

Dex: I hate mods.
0:31
Also Dex: I installed a mod...
He meant like content mods
I have nothing against mods at all, in fact I have a bunch of modded videos on my channel. What that was referring to was something big that exhausts future possibilities and drains the experience, like a lot of new items/weapons/characters. GMO mod for example is in my feeling totally fine, just that most combinations are either impossible to play or completely broken.
At minute 27 when you didnt know why you didnt curse the plank, it was because a comon plank takes 3 rounds to max out, so its 3 less armor from the anvil
But the lower the level of the weapon when cursed, the more extreme the curse can get, at least from what I've gathered by watching🙂
Dex is a true gentleman, playing with all the other swords before playing with his own.
at 27:03 you were talking about how the anvil gives bonus armor when you have all red weapons, meaning if you cursed a blue or white plank it'd give you no armor for a few waves
27:04 - it was a tier one plank, so if you got it cursed you would be losing out on 6 armor (3 after character debuff) from the anvil upgrading it
"I NEED ARMOR" shirt is a good merch idea, Dex!
I have never once played this game, but I continue to watch these videos because I just want to see Dex use his own sword eventually.
I been watching you for 2 years now and still the videos keep it up🎉
The hooks's curse chance is not additive, it's a separate chance to happen per hook. That's why not that many items got cursed.
There is a mod that allows you to start with a basic version of any weapon in the game, but I have no idea if the new weapons have been added to it.
Hey dex deine videos sind der hammer
You got me addicted to brotato thanks 😅😊❤
Just realised ive been watching your videos for the last week but i forgot to sub, sorry about that dude. Thanks for your help beating danger 5
17:54 love the notes thanks
26:55 I think what you meant was, taking a grey weapon would use up your anvil for the next few rounds. Thors you would Not get Andy Armor
“What drops materials”
‘The boss’
“Right. Run into it”
My kinda logic o7
"I need armor"... This happens waaaaaay too often :D
Heiliges Schnitzel, damit hast du mir denn Abend versüßt :D

Personally I prefer seeing the effects. I like seeing the area grow and grow.
You know dex, starting the game with 6 legendary weapon is also a challenge in a certain way
I do feel bad....I just bought Brotato yesterday, and on my 2nd wave, got Dex's weapon as my first legendary weapon....
Glad you are playing Brotato. Retromation hasnt yet :(
@Dex 26:56
you meant you don't want to waste the armor you get from the anvil, which you would, if you curse and buy a level one plank ;)
I play with explosion opacity at 20% all the time and projectile at 50%, so I think yours is more than fine
The "i"s in Artificer are pronounced like the i in it.
27:05 i believe you ment the envil bonusses
The explosion opacity of 5% is fine, though I would like 10% a bit more. I think 0% is a little bit irritating, cause you don't see the edges of your kill zone.
Eventually you are just going to mod a character to start the game with your weapon. I can't wait to see that video tomorrow.
I can't believe that I just finished a run with two Dex-troyers without even trying and he's grinding hard over here.😆
You should really do a Couple Coop Runs 🎉
27:00 I believe you meant the potential Anvil bonuses.
I wonder if Dex put the mod backwards and made it more likely for items. Because 50% change to see a legendary weapon with every red item and there was around 15 or so, that would be incredibly unlucky
I wish the opacity in Brotato worked differently. I like seeing the outline but not the middle.
It is funny how fascinated with old swedish men dex becomes when he is angry.
I think you severely underestimate baby squid. It’s crazy efficient.
Did any red weapons show up in the shop? I wonder if the mod Dex used broke the game? 5% explosion opacity was fine for the most part for me, I had stopped thinking about it until dex pointed it out lol.
If you're going into endless with Melee weapons. I have been having a lot of success with getting a lot of range to keep myself out of danger.

Ty dex
Keeps three items locked in the shop and wonders why he never gets his weapon.
First weapon Dex-troyer when?
It would've been this video if the modding would have worked, but something changed and I cant mod anymore
@DexTag Well, hopefully something works out and you finally get to use it. I look forward to seeing you turn into a giggly mess when it finally does
Dex casually finding 7 planks per reroll in 3 waves i'm really starting to find there exists a mod for content creators that makes it so they choose their shops or a portion of them
I would say 7 planks per reroll is 100% modded, given that you only see 4 shop options per roll
@DexTag i think you understand what i mean either imoyou reset until you get what younw1nt before wave 5 or a mod or idk cause every time you play something you get at the start what you need be it planks rn or flints last video and the hook
I've been trying to play the dlc myself each time i wanna go somewhere i dont find anything i need
I have been wondering, if flamer+knockback+burning would be any good?
I got the weqpon on my second dlc char
Vagabund
But could not take it -100 hp would have hurt
Dear Dex, can you explain why Shredder's explosions doesn't scale with explosion size item? or it's so little scaling? love your videos, currently watching this and waiting for Dex-troyer)

@DexTag thanks! yes, noticed this a couple of minutes ago. compare to the explosion size of consumables it feels sooooo small) wish you a RIDICULOUSLY great run with finding your weapon at the 9th wave! again, big thanks for your content
You should have bought the elemental purple sword! It's a blade elem. so you would hage higher chances to get yours!

hope this helps
time to work Dex, the new dlc is out. all the castlevania cast is in vampire survivors.

If it helps, it will entertain ous viewers greatly if it is a dissapointment, So you win no matter the case :)
you didnt even see a legendary weapon, let alone your own. dang
I HAVE SEEN YOUR WEAPON TWICE ON 2 RUNS LOL
He is called Artificker
aqt the start when you said "how do you call that" the pronunciation you used immediately before that was correct.
brotato has an anti-1-shot mechanic, does it not?
26:32 i think you mean narwal pronounced nar-wall
Artificer can be pronounced "Artefißer" if you use German sounds
if you have the new GMO mod allowing you to combine 3 characters try triple Renegade, math is so broken when +%dmg is actually negative and vice versa :D
the dynamite isent doin noting 4 you?
I don't mind with the Explosion Opacity
It gets annoying in the long run
Dex your melee weapon has 450 range
You can't use a mod to try and force your own item mate, got to do it the hard way or not at all 😄
the last patch super messed up mods :/
Maybe there is something in code for your steamID just to troll and torture you? xD
