@@rekrn12345 This depends on whether its per ball or all balls combined. I mean yes, everything needs a hit delay, thats completely true, but I am not sure which of the 2 here is the case (I didnt look at it again)
@@DexTag The way it works now almost feels like a bug. It disincentivizes using certain combinations in a somewhat artificial and, in my opinion, unfair way. Past a certain amount, the only reason to get more projectiles on the balls is the expected increase in dps
"Having slow balls kind of sucks a lot, it just takes such a long time to hit it again, you know? So I want to make sure we have very fast balls." Very logical statement.
tBalls count as summons. So you also get more balls with the incanter gloves not only the increased dmg. Also all Warlock summon-talents count to the balls
Yeah, I think it's especially noticeable on bosses that are standing on the ring. They should be getting constantly shaved down, but it looks like there is a .3 second hit CD or something.
that makes sense. if you think about it from a coding point of view, how do you make sure that the orb only hits once per pass but still able to hit the same enemy again later on?
this has supposedly been fixed now. every ball has its own hitrate now that scales with rotation speed. would be nice if this was repeated t check if it was fixedm
You talked about them a bit I think, but the "Invocator's Grasp" gloves are probably better than the strike gloves for scaling just the astronomer orbs. The hunter gloves give 30% additional proj, but the other gives +40% summon spawns, in addition to having the +20% summons damage. The summon spawn increase seems to work on the balls, because I always start with 4 when I have the gloves on.
Yes balls have the summon subtype but the gloves give +30% to everything including your base attack, so even on balls only run it's more optimal to run that, unless you plan to challenge yourself by playing only balls and no base attack.
3:09 This is the first time in this video he increased the mass of his balls 18:21 That is -1 ticket sir Also it seem that you balls have internal cooldown And people didn't think you'd have the balls not to do balls jokes all willy-nilly. It would've helped if you called them orbs you know lol
Man, it's just bibles but without knockback and with significantly more damage. So good. I've gotten lots of value out of the balls, but nowhere near this much.
Now. To get into Dex's mind, repeat that video, with just sound on. No visuals. Sit comfy. Close your eyes. Imagine your self some balls. Focus your mind, all yourself on those balls. And listen. Do not thank me, thank Dex. You may reread this with Alan Watt's voice for better immersion.
@3:55 I went for max Crit Damage with as much Distance as I could cram in, on Shieldmaiden for the bonus Crit Damage. My orbs were slapping for 1415 damage but without ever doubling any of the orb distance, it just cannot cover much of the screen. That said, it still peaked just over 40k dps naturally, and 69k dps when I padded on the ghost wall. But the poor reach was painful, I barely managed lv100 since I just could not kill things on the edges of the screen fast enough for more enemies to spawn. I'm curious how well Dragon's Breath with no evolutions will do for me sometime.
hahaha i didnt even know you could get this many balls. im still trying to collect all the stuff from the well guy. like all the potions i dont have everything yet
how do you know when to grab a new scroll to upgrade 1 weapon type? is it at certain lvls or after a number of upgrades? i always get a new skill instead of being able to upgrade like that.
How does the blessings really work? I was wondering if it was possible to reduce what appears in the selection outside of using potions. like does completely removing fire dmg blessings from camp, makes it so that fire affinity never comes up?
No they are tied to items or weapons you pick. For example if you start or put a fire related item on or pick for example dragons breath fire affinity unlocks
@@Monnisti Nice this clears everything. Thx. Also i should pick up the cards for weapons only if i pick a lvl 3 upgrade from lvling right? Like a lvl 3 upgrade on golem unlocks a lvl 2 upgrade on golem itself from the weapon pickups?
@@Monnisti finally now i can play knowing what i am doing lool. I have like done about 200 of the achievements, but without understanding much. Now i can make a more focused build and have more fun. Thx dude 👍
love your videos dex! but how do you get this game to run properly? for me the picture just freezes at some point but the game keeps on running in the background..
Summoner gloves are better for balls. It gives 10% more multi hit and gives 20% damage on top of that. Those ten percent made you have two balls less. Also, auto attacking gives less movement speed with that ring. For maximum ball damage you should not auto.
I'm 3 minutes in the video and I'm already missing the ball jokes 😭 Who dared to be against balls? EDIT: nevermind, luckily it didn't last. I mean. Objective statements really got slapped around. And got electrified as well 😂
![[Vinesauce] Vinny - Halls of Torment: Prelude](/img/n.gif)
How can it be that it feels like literally everyone noticed the weapon cant hit the same enemy all too fast, but I didnt a single time xD
I have to imagine they have an internal cooldown otherwise they could just hit infinite times when they make contact.

with you talking about BALLS in game - will always be interpreted as BALLS genitalia LOL
Probably distracted by all the ball in your face. (Serious statement.)
Man dedicating to no jokes... That takes a lot of balls.
You could say.... Balls of Steel
Approximately 30 of them
as soon as dex said that he will reset when he makes ball jokes, I expected the video to be 1 hour
"Having slow balls kind of sucks a lot, it just takes such a long time to hit it again, you know? So I want to make sure we have very fast balls." Very logical statement.
lmfao
Yes a perfectly logical statement from this very serious video. 😐
tBalls count as summons. So you also get more balls with the incanter gloves not only the increased dmg. Also all Warlock summon-talents count to the balls
Alternatively, I wonder if doubling multihit or going exterminator (he gets a decent movespeed amount too) would also be viable
"You can't have tiny balls without something else to compensate that." Well said.
with how fast the balls are spinning, it def doesnt look like its hitting enemies at the same speed, like it has a hit cap or something unfortunately
Yeah, I think it's especially noticeable on bosses that are standing on the ring. They should be getting constantly shaved down, but it looks like there is a .3 second hit CD or something.
i noticed this as well, all of the hits arent registering.
that makes sense.
if you think about it from a coding point of view, how do you make sure that the orb only hits once per pass but still able to hit the same enemy again later on?

Balls in ur face might blind ur eyesight, but the path they show will always be gleaming with light

A critical hit would be slapping your balls against someone else's balls.
it kinda seems like there's a limiter on how many balls can slap at once - which is kinda sad. cause i feel like this could have been really good
Thank you dex for breaking the balls
LOL 🤣 that intro just made me hyper focus on innuendos that are or aren't there.
You definitely have more balls than any other content creator I've seen. Logical and objective statement.
18:20 -- " You can't have tiny balls and not have anything else to compensate that"

-Dex, 2023
I swear to God - you are my new favorite content creator. I love the fact that you are true to yourself! Thanks for some great fun
"...small balls, it's a lot of fun to look at. I don't need to tell you..." 19:55
"You can't have tiny balls and not have something to compensate for that." lol, lmao
Dex and Balls. It's like putting peanut butter and jelly together.
Thanks for demoing the balls. I was wanting to do the double ball rings but I didn't know how good it'd be. So thank you for showing us yours.
Those balls … you really know how to get ‘em moving.
I,ve gotten up to 5 balls per ring and so much speed but this many is insane. Is definitely my favorite way to build right now.
I mean...replacing the word balls with orbs would have been another challenge but...I think this build is amazing 😂
so many balls, i love it! amazing content
Remember, moving you character clockwise around the boss diminish you dmg a little bit, to raise the dmg you must walk counter clock. ;)
This guy literally turned the game into .... BALLS of TORMENT.
Love it. I was going for this too. Orbs have become my favorite skill.
I love your videos. Lots of fun and very informative. Thank you for posting 🤩
You gave a new meaning to the saying "Balls to the wall"
You make good videos. Informative, to the point and weirdly funny. Keep it going
Summoner gloves give you 1 more ball off the start ball is a summon apparently.
"Having the most amount of balls around as as possible" as a goal reminds me of my ex
"I'm surrounded by balls. This is heaven!" 👀
Busting balls is no laughing matter!!
Call them Wonkas, since they are between Willy and a chocolate factory 😮
Going for that build was so ballsy
"Your balls can explode in the face of the enemy" 😂
you were balls deep on that one bud 😂
fr tho, you are a god
Dex. I just saw an article saying Vampire Survivors getting a couch co op mode this year.
with this, dex is officially sponsored by Manscaped
"The circle of small balls sounds like a weird cult" had me rolling.
Man, it's just bibles but without knockback and with significantly more damage. So good. I've gotten lots of value out of the balls, but nowhere near this much.
Can't stop thinking about the acdc big balls song
Most people have the decency to play with their balls in the privacy of their own home.
Hey Dex, you missed the gloves: Invocator's Grasp for more balls ;)
Now. To get into Dex's mind, repeat that video, with just sound on. No visuals. Sit comfy. Close your eyes. Imagine your self some balls. Focus your mind, all yourself on those balls. And listen. Do not thank me, thank Dex. You may reread this with Alan Watt's voice for better immersion.
I feel like the next system they should introduce into the game is levelable items, starting at level 60 and every ten levels to increase them.
Despite the balls move that fast, but the i-frame of monsters lessen the number of damage taken.
Truly an impressive mastery of ones balls
I think the problem with the weapon is that it has a limit on how often it can hit per second. The rotation speed doesn't really matter.
Ball Chokes.
A shame he didn't go with the second stage boss, to have a duel of balls...
you sir are Balldemort, he who shall not tell ball jokes
I think s might be limiting the amount of damage this kind of build can do on bosses.
Circle of Small Balls is totally my band name.
A video with no un-appropriate jokes? That's balls-y move
someone needs to make a highlight of all the "balls" that dex said so far, i bet it will be a minimum of 30 minutes or more lol
This video needed a Manscaped sponsor
I think a max distance ball video should be done to see if the damage is actually better.
It takes some serious balls to do such a video, well done!
Nice vid :D Btw, am I the only one head Dex sound kinda different? like he was speeking int 2000's phone mic :D
Golem Ball watching from the bench.
What website you use to see what abilities will show up at specific levels? Seems like you know what to expect
I can confirm there more than 3 balls jokes in this vid
You are not taking balls seriously enough if you think those were jokes.
when you attack hydra it's called 'balls to the wall'
Warlock level 5 talent give +20% all summons, double that for +40%. If you really want to maximize how many balls you're swinging around.
Doing this with warlock and summons is the wtg because your pets will protecc you inside your ring of bawls
Sanest Aydee Viewer has logged on.
ball cancer awareness is high in this game
im really having a hard time getting charged up done any advice for this challenge?
The 1st video I did see the balls joke butt. I enjoy the jokes need some jokes to enjoy the day.
is the guiding star ring even working??? when i tried it nothing changed at all and i was just wondering if is bnugged
If you set the video speed in 1.25 sounds like a balls podcast with an unrelated video running in the background 🤣
That's what i call some balls.
But you missing 10% Balls because there are better gloves. (Balls count as summons)

when you are say you are checking on what to level what site are you using as a guide?
What is the levels needed to make sure the you get the ability upgrade?
I love when dex plays with balls
Summoner gloves give you 1 extra ball at the start :) hunter gloves are probably better overall though
I got a Manscaped add for this video, how fitting.
and until here I was thinkin my 9 balls build was insane ...
hahaha i didnt even know you could get this many balls. im still trying to collect all the stuff from the well guy. like all the potions i dont have everything yet
Finally, a guide on how to break my balls
not half as strong as i thought it would be but also doesn't seem like all the balls are actually doing damage.
how do you know when to grab a new scroll to upgrade 1 weapon type? is it at certain lvls or after a number of upgrades? i always get a new skill instead of being able to upgrade like that.
You need to get a ability to lvl 3 to get the first evolution and after that to lvl 6 to get the second evolution.
@@PadaV4 thanks a ton :)
why you dont pickup the scrolls / powerups arround you in yellow ?
Slap it a bit harder...and rotate! 😆😂🤣🤣🤪😱💀
How does the blessings really work? I was wondering if it was possible to reduce what appears in the selection outside of using potions. like does completely removing fire dmg blessings from camp, makes it so that fire affinity never comes up?
No they are tied to items or weapons you pick. For example if you start or put a fire related item on or pick for example dragons breath fire affinity unlocks
@@Monnisti Nice this clears everything. Thx. Also i should pick up the cards for weapons only if i pick a lvl 3 upgrade from lvling right? Like a lvl 3 upgrade on golem unlocks a lvl 2 upgrade on golem itself from the weapon pickups?
Correct, first upgrade is lvl 3 and second lvl 6. Altough you need to do damage achievements for the abilities to unlock more upgrades
@@Monnisti finally now i can play knowing what i am doing lool. I have like done about 200 of the achievements, but without understanding much. Now i can make a more focused build and have more fun. Thx dude 👍
Ballers gonna ball.
You are a freakin beyblade. Nice build.
i watched this video without footage as audio noise and let me tell you it got me cracking
Man, you're not making enough balls joke
love your videos dex! but how do you get this game to run properly? for me the picture just freezes at some point but the game keeps on running in the background..
I laughed too much at this. I'm 12. Well, I was several decades ago.
Summoner gloves are better for balls. It gives 10% more multi hit and gives 20% damage on top of that. Those ten percent made you have two balls less. Also, auto attacking gives less movement speed with that ring. For maximum ball damage you should not auto.
and this man is a grown ass man holyshit
you needed the crit dmg ball upgrade you will have alittle slower balls but they will crit close to 600 instead of 300
I'm surprised there were no video sponsors.
I'm 3 minutes in the video and I'm already missing the ball jokes 😭
Who dared to be against balls?
EDIT: nevermind, luckily it didn't last.
I mean. Objective statements really got slapped around. And got electrified as well 😂
Objectively speaking, there were only 3 ball jokes in the video.
Subjectively speaking, the entire video was a ball joke.
