    I feel like we need a Thunder-throwing variant of S. Sausage.
    Something like " Leaky Battery " Where attacks have a 33% Chance to throw a Lightning Bolt doing 8 ( Scaling 25% off of Ele Damage)

  • @MegaSmiley

    I think the melee and elemental scaling on the sword should each be calculated separately, then combined for final damage. Ex: 20 damage weapon, 50% each means 10 melee, 10 elemental. With the -100 melee the melee portion would drop to 0, but you’d still get 10 elemental per swing.

  • @Osono2diWorld
    @Osono2diWorld ปีที่แล้ว +24

    The thunder sword creates two projectiles per hit. Because it has a sweeping motion rather than a thrusting motion it’s significantly better. It’s hard to see here because the flame thrower and the 4 other shivs

    • @spearsage
      @spearsage ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The sword's bolt seems to be acting like it's randomly spread instead of targeting at a certain enemy like the shiv's does. Which means it'll only work for certain situations where that random spread won't matter much.

    • @spearsage
      @spearsage ปีที่แล้ว

      it's pretty much the total opposite of shiv instead of being the 'upgraded version' of the shiv. Shiv has thrust attack, lightning sword has swing attack. Shiv has targeted, bouncing bolt; Lightning sword has spreading, non-targeting, piercing bolts.

  • @maxiarg7412
    @maxiarg7412 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Now that you mention it its so true, mage should have -100% modifications to those stats, maybe give it a -10 melee/ranged damage so early weapons do no damage but still being able to gain enough elemental that you can use plasma hammer and thunder sword for something

  • @gumbarius
    @gumbarius ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The minus melee damage dragging down such hybrid weapons is really dum tbh
    Like, so many characters just have a default minus 100 in specific damage types to push their playstlye forward, but this kinda weapon should still be made viable by them, since it does technically go with their playstyle

  • @theonlyamergeddon
    @theonlyamergeddon ปีที่แล้ว +4

    My favorite for lighting shiv or sword is the one handed just the fact he gains more of all damage and the base attack speed makes it very strong.

  • @maciejbogacz5353
    @maciejbogacz5353 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Honestly, melee/ranged/eng capped at 0 seems like a much cleaner solution for mage. Would still block any pure builds scaling with those, but no longer gut hybrids.

    Thx to You i bought this game. Best 5 bucks i evever spent btw. Now i'm about 40 hours in and got everything unlocked, just missing around half a dozen t5 runs to complete the current content. As a sidenote, having a nuclear luncher and an oblirerater at the same time is bloody awesome.

    Hey Retro, I would really like to see you try masochist with the new changes. I was having a hard time with it. With the enemy amount increase and the fact that masochist does less damage at the beginning of waves I kept getting overwhelmed by enemies by the time my damage was good. I had some runs with 20+ armor and tons of regen and life steal and was still getting crushed on the elite waves. Thanks!

  • @oliveoil2549
    @oliveoil2549 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think a better way to keep mage focused in elemental, but still get use out of multi-damage class weapons (like thunder sword) would be to lower all damage modifications that aren't to your elemental damage or % damage, instead of nuking all damage types.

    Thunder sword is inferior to shiv because the lightning projectiles don't seek out for enemies. A LOT of damage gets send to the abyss.

    Hey Retro thanks for the videos. I have some fun challenges for you. An all slow build then an all fast build. So force your self to take charters and items that maximize slowing enemies for benefit, but also slowing your movement and attack speed for challenge. Then the reverse on another episode. You've done great showing you can survive well on your own choices now let's see what you can do if your force limitations to challenge yourself to the extremes of stats. Like what's the absolute largest health pool stat you can achieve things like that. Thanks again. It's been great watching you get all the tier 5's.

    Hearing the comments, maybe -50 is the better number? Still no help early, but the hybrids could outclimb it by the big waves.

    @fiethsing9988 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The Thunder Sword is really good for a Lightning Shiv run with Crazy.
    It basically lets you make use of both melee and elemental damage, while serving as the thing that keeps big guys from just running into you.

  • @legobattledroid7979
    @legobattledroid7979 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your best bet for getting the swing of lightning sword to do damage on mage is stack up elemental damage to 100+ that way it will counter act the -100 melee damage. It's easier than it sounds thanks to the mages ele damage modifier

  • @gergelynemeth8244
    @gergelynemeth8244 ปีที่แล้ว

    Last time I tried power generator it also gave bonus on negative move speed. I noticed similar behaviour with some other items as well. I think absolute value is taken as base or something like that. Fun though 😀

  • @lucasbortoluzzi9369
    @lucasbortoluzzi9369 ปีที่แล้ว

    more than 1 flamethrower isn't really good. the burn is the most important partof it's dmg, especially with faster ticks and snakes. going for support with hanbd and tazer to keep enemies away while getting more material or for some rocks to be tankier is better imo

  • @Justicetom21
    @Justicetom21 ปีที่แล้ว

    It seems to me like the Thunder Sword just shoots a Taser shot(x2) off whenever it hits an enemy
    Which... on this character just seems like you'd be better off running the actual Taser

    • @Justicetom21
      @Justicetom21 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also, just because I had the thought - I think a really undervalued part of aoe clear builds like this against single-targets is actually the simplification of the boss fight by removing all the little problems around you. In the final boss, you just DIDN'T have to dodge anything except the bosses. There weren't other enemies to care about, meaning that you could focus all of your single-target damage (as lacking as it may be) into the bosses and just dodge the patterns. It doesn't make it easier to kill the bosses, but it makes it significantly easier not to DIE to the bosses, which is an important part of killing the bosses
