RISK OF RAIN

Reminder that RoR threads are a NO BULLI zone.

>just got Enforcer
is he good or do I stick with Commando forever

>>383020496
Everyone is viable, though some are harder then others are some are more useful for unlocking new stuff if you're starting out. Mobility tends to win out for monsoon & funballs though unless you abuse invuln but that's not enforcer unique.

>>383020496
>Enforcer
He's the hardest/weakest character. Still viable but most people need a ton of experience with him.

2 when?

>>383020739
>>383020746

Yeah I tried him out yesterday and just got shit on because it's really hard to get the fuck out of the way of anything.
Obviously if you die early and don't get to pick up any hooves or syringes you're pretty much fucked from that point on because enemies only get more aggressive, numerous and mobile.

It's a huge adjust from the more nimble characters.

>>383020746
Dunno, at least for single player I feel like sniper is even more of a challenge. Or at least I'd stick Enforcer in more of the overall tier of more challenging but not super quirky characters.

>>383021039
You really, really have to get used to using his various moves well, at the right time, and taking into account terrain. His various stuns and breathers and all that.

It can be a pretty fun change of pace though to try to play him and specifically NOT get much or anything in the way of movement but just see how crazy tank/pushback you can make him. Might have to play without funballs for that though in some cases, on some maps it's just too hard to avoid instagib without unfun cheese.

>>383021039
>>383021039
He's basically the least mobile character in a game where mobility equals survivability (reason hooves are the most important early pick along with life items). That's why most players end up ditching the shield thinking it's complete shit, when the actual trick to Enforcer is to know where and when to use the shield and when not.

Mobility is also the reason Huntress was practically the best class on vanilla and had to be nerfed when RoR was still in beta. If it wasn't for how fragile she's in glass, she would be a top class.

>Enforcer talk on Risk of rain
Recently another anon wrote a guide to Enforcer here, but I'm having problems to find the damn thing in the archive.

>>383021470
>If it wasn't for how fragile she's in glass, she would be a top class.
Given how easy it is to boost health in glass though she's still top class, unless you specifically avoid that. It's too bad there isn't a bit more customizability in what pops up in Command, or in how Glass scales damage/health gains. It'd be cool for example if you have a customized set of items for everyone in each game, or if you could set Glass to change not just initial health/damage, but change how items worked. So rather the avoiding health items entirely to keep the challenge you could still grab them but they'd only have 1/10 normal effectiveness (or whatever was selected), so you could trade off damage for mildly less one-shottability, but you'd still have to really watch out.

>>383021901
Enforcers are ok

>>383022119
I mean, yeah, but Infusion is ban worthy and root is looked down (and a waste of a white imo), so outside of healing items most people who play her have to wait to get a Heart. Normally.

>>383022635
True, like a lot of characters you have to make your own fun with her. I do hate though in general when games have items that are banned/looked down on, that shouldn't happen. There should be enough flexibility in server setup that whoever sets up the game can tweek it however they like so that players can try any crazy strategy they think might work. Infusion is pretty bad in glass as-is for a single item, but at the same time it's not like there aren't lots of insane combos in RoR, they just take more work to build, more tradeoffs, and in some cases more skill to use. If Infusion/root were 1/10 effectiveness or whatever, then I think they'd go back to being totally reasonable. You could still choose a tankier approach, but it'd take spending a ton of greens that could have gone elsewhere and that seems fair enough (just like now you can build up a bigger tank with enough hearts, but again that requires burning a lot of greens that could have been mobility/damage/utility).

host when

>>383023648
I agree, but there's an actual good reason why Infusion is banned, there's an entire story to it in the early servers that used /v/ rules. It's just too egoist for the rest of the players.
>you can build up a bigger tank with enough hearts
I wish. After looping enemies attack can bypass the heart shield and take on your healthbar directly. Dunno if it's a bug but it's pretty annoying since the Heart function is to act as a sponge shield, and it kinda fails to when that happens.

>>383024075
>After looping
I'll admit I haven't looped in a longass time, sort of felt like we could always end up god mode with enough items so a lot of us just focused on trying to get through with whatever came up in a single run. Granted the massive OH MY GOD MAGMA WORMS EVERYWHERE in loop 1 could be pretty amusing.

>enemies attack can bypass the heart shield and take on your healthbar directly. Dunno if it's a bug but it's pretty annoying since the Heart function is to act as a sponge shield, and it kinda fails to when that happens.
Can't remember that but I'm not doubting you, seems like it'd have to be a bug. Shit that definitely fucks up the the point of bothering with hearts though. Plenty of RoR is working around bugs however, another reason more customizability would be good. I can't even remember if they ever fixed the sniper/banjo CTD for example, even when we wanted to play without Command we'd be forced to just to avoid certain items.

Wasn't a RoR 2 announced? Maybe some of this will be touched up for the next game since they'll have more experience.

wen will dah rum be opan?

Could someone explain what the timing should be for this game? By the third stage, im getting absolutely fucked while using commander. Am I meant to gather as many items as possible and farm, or just start sprinting to boss summon in the early minutes of a level? Does difficulty scale throughout an entire play through or is it zeroed on entering a new stage?

>>383033071
Always rush for tele

>>383033071
>Am I meant to gather as many items as possible and farm
No.
>Does difficulty scale throughout an entire play through
Yes, and it never stops getting harder even if the meter says otherwise.

Time is more important than items in this game, normally if an item or two is going to cost you 1 minute, it's not worth it. The most effective thing to do is to rush the teleporter and kill things while you use the money to get items as the tp event ends.
Find the pace that works for you. Imo, once you're used to the maps you should not take more than 3 minutes to find the tp, and shouldn't waste more than 5 minutes on each map. If you do, the difficulty scaling will end up fucking you up.

>>383033071
Try to get the artifact from both initial stages, artifact of Kin will make some stages less painful as you unlock more characters and stuff.

Sandcrabs stage's artifact is at the right on the cracked wall, Stone guardian stage's is at the left side but you will need a jumping aid of some kind.

>>383033114
Even on the first stage? I shouldn't use that to farm for gear, or do I just do that with boss on field?

>>383025883

>>383033449
No, never farm. It's a busted strategy in this game.
>rushing, getting items as you keep going from map to map without losing time, basically doing both things at the same time
Efficient and most effective way to play.
>farming, wasting time for a few items and then waiting to jump for the next map
You waste time one way or the other.
Do both things at the same time, if you don't believe me you'll do in time when you have more experience and see for yourself how the scale works.
