>>140511843
Right, they're references. But they also contain info about the sci-fi backstory hegemony of man stuff.

Also the part that Robot might have been a HoM killer robot that went to look for a gungeoneer and failed.

So, what, kill Dragun again?

>>140505709
I don't think the High Priest is actually getting hit like that. He floats after all. He's just taking damage from the shots. I think there's one boss on every chamber that's immune to ground damage basically. Bullet King, Beholster, Cannonbalrog and High Priest.

>>140514049

Anon, I...

>>140514251
He's not? I figured he was a floating skull. Dunno.

>>140514049
Beholster is vulnerable to molotovs at least.

old knights flask or keep my lock picks? im on the third chamber. other active is double vision.

>>140514049
The point wasn't that he is getting hit, it's that you don't need a water weapon to take advantage of the passive. Any gun will work.

what is the best passive and why is it the cog of battle?

>>140515214
I like hot lead a lot more

>>140515214
Cog is one of my least favorite actually. Don't get me wrong, it's very good. I just don't like using it.

>>140515214
It's Metronome with best bud Gunther.

>>140515214
Clone is objectively the most fun passive, Scattershot is right behind it.

>>140531468
Yeah, there weren't. Until now.

>>140531970
That's a horrible idea, Deck4rd would only fire twice before you had to reload (and then you wouldn't get the hammer to fire). Duct tape the grasschopper to Deck4rd instead.

>>140532159
Grasschopper first?

>>140532385
No, grasschopper second - it has much less ammo than Deck4rd.

Sword has no reload which makes it top tier for this abuse.

Something of note is when you have the Lead God watch.

It slows time down to about half of what it is when you're changing weapons. By switching over and over you can pretty much fire every magazine of every gun you own in what amounts to a second.

So does Ring of Mimic Friendship and Mimic Tooth Necklace just make all chests free to open?

>>140536485
yeah it's most OP on the gun with infinite clip/no reload

but you can also use it to e.g. instantly dump out a full magazine of sniper rifle or shotgun shots into something.

>>140536723
yes

but more fun is Mimic Necklace plus Ring of Chest Vampirism.

yes it unlocks a specific gun

Found some other cool Duct Tape combo. Moonscraper + Gunslinger's Ashes. Gives you a fuckload of ammo for the Gunslinger, and once you fire a full clip of those you switch weapons and switch back and the mag is fully reloaded immediately.

Probably in general it's good to combine infinite-mag-lots-of-ammo weapon + low-ammo-but-strong weapon.

>>140537934
Alternatively just drop all weapons except the two you want to combine. Failsafe method.

So what cool item synergies have you found in Enter The Gungeon? The Brick-Breaker's projectiles are larger and move faster if you have the Invincibility Star expy item.

>>140548962
Lead Skin is OP against Lich. Would say it's a keeper even in a arguably bad run.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4P5YUu21JmU
Not the best representation because Heroine is on the strong side and makes first phase (if he spams adds) suck less.
>>140550292
Runs can be enjoyable for different reasons, that's just my opinion though. I have to say that the first 2~3 chambers are boring though, kind of like actual shmups.
>>140559867
The one that fires koopa shells? So it's a Mario star? Hah.

Alpha + Omega bullets count as a synergy too, right? It's great for a lot of guns with a single shot per clip.

>>140560067

Having Alpha and Omega Bullets decreases all reload times by 50%. ETG doesn't just have "items that work well together" they have literal hidden passives when you hold multiple themed items.

The Corsair + Sense of Direction makes the Corsair's bullets actually move at a reasonable speed.

I wouldn't hold my breath, though. This is the same man that said the game would be done and released by September of last year. I wouldn't trust him to keep an automated clock running at this rate.

>>140562951
he's just charging it too long i guess
paying more attention to dodging than to optimal dps

although once you get into the rhythm of it you can fire off max-charge shots as soon as possible without really paying attention to it, at least with the megahand

>>140564246
Yeah, first time having Heroine on that run. Megahand is more or less better with a few passives since the charging time is much more comfortable.

Tips?

Keys for caged NPCs only drop from bosses, right?

How do you know where secret rooms are? Do all weapons create cracks? Can you open passages with anything other than blanks?

Is the Hunter the best class? Crossbow is OP as fuck

>>140589120
Hunter or marine, learn when to dodge.

>>140589498
keys will drop from regular enemies too.

>>140589498
Git gud.
From bosses and mini-bosses on the floor.
All non-default weapons make cracks, you can also open them with explosions.
Marine is the best default character.

>>140589582
Nope.

>>140589679
HAHA DISREGARD THAT I SUCK COCKS
All weapons that don't have infinite ammo make cracks.

First floor gunther. time to have some fun eh?

>>140588880
>>140588985
Took me 783 runs as melting and I have it. Mostly because I get hit and recover in these games when I play, I am not good at just not getting hit at all.

>>140589679
>>140589498
Was that changed in a patch?

I swear game could select a random enemy for the cage key.

>>140590771
It was always either the mini-boss or the boss.

MLG PRO MONEY TRIANGLE UNLOCKED

>tfw you get to 5th floor with enough keys and only needing 40 shells to open the shortcut.
>tfw you also only need 1 more red caped bullet to unlock bullet
>tfw run out of ammo with almost all guns and down to 1.5 hearts
>tfw finally decide to pull out vertebreaker 47 I hadn't been using in case red caped bullet shows up
>tfw 2 rooms later, first enemy is red caped bullet and I already have enough homing shots in the air that it kills it fucking instantly
>tfw tilted so hard I die with 280 shells

Never been so mad in my life. Only opened like 2 chests the whole run just to get that shortcut. And I swear a caped bullet only shows up once in 4 runs man.

>>140593769
Do it as pilot and don't open any. Lock pick everything.

>>140594074

I did. The 2 chests is how many times the stupid nigger lockpick decided to work. One of them was table tech money, which gave me maybe like 10 shells the whole run.

>>140594074
What color of chest must even spawn before you have any reason to NOT use the bloody lockpick?
Best case scenario is still Chest Anatomy dropping from the first brown chest/shop, and then you can destroy chests without any down sides if you fail.

>>140594465
Green.

>>140594312
Ah really poor luck then. The other day I finally found Lonk in the forge. It's the only time I've seen him there. I only had two red hearts and died to a fucking off screen lead maiden because I didn't know what was happening. So mad.

>>140594465
I use keys on green and greater chests.
Even if I'm not Pilot, I still ignore or break blue/brown chests unless I have way too many keys and nothing else is spawning.

>>140594465
On a 5th chamber elevator run? I wouldn't open any unless I had 6 keys. Normal play? I always pick brown and opening everything else. I also pick those doors that have chests behind them.

>>140594568
>Look up chest drop
>D rank is 70% active items
why

>>140594768
Meant to say more than 6 keys.

>>140594465

Green is the lowest color chest that's worth a key in general, no matter who you play. You can still risk it on that if you want to be a big jew, but always use a key on red/black chests (or rainbow if RNG decides it likes the cut of your jib).

>>140594663
>>140594465
I find blue is often good enough to be worth while unless I'm starving for keys.

Going through all the trouble of the elevator runs gets you the Akey and that's by far worth more than an the runs you probably lost trying to bring him stuff.

That do make sense. That do however not mean its coded in a way that allows those recipes to be used.
I.E Creating charm weapons.
Or dropping 2 of the same gun types for a upgraded one. I.E Shotgun + Sawed Shotgun should be a stronger shotgun.
The reality is that:
1. Guns are too valueable
2. It never drops when you run out of ammo on shit weapons
3. Most guns are too valueable to even attempt recycling them, which limits the guns to D chest recycling

>>140600185

>>140600185
I literally played Convict and Hunter once.
Now I'm Pilot every time, used to play Marine a lot, which suits me because he''s got the best design.

Bullet is just stupid OP and no fun to play.

>>140521936
Just do boss rush.

Literally "perfect the dragun and you get lead god".

>>140602083
Really bummed that since bullet has no past, he cannot interact with the shrine in the starting room to crank the curse up and make the run interesting.

Still, having the silly stupid OP weapon every now and then can make for a decent way to blow off steam if you're having a shit day.

>>140602438
>no past where bullet betrays the bullet king and sends him to the abbey, where he becames old king while a new bullet king is chosen

>>140602438
Ah, the reverse gun rule: sword in gun-infested invornment is OP.

>>140602682
`The OP factor is that it's actually a gun, and a fucking amazing one. So long as yer not a shitter.

Blasphemy needs to be cursed on principle, and Bullet should start with 4 curse. Or else start with 1 or 2 hearts.

>>140602779
I'm really surprised he isn't cursed by default. I kinda expected him to be. I hope they expand his story a little in the future. The game calls him betrayer and his weapon is blasphemy. Seems like a story goldmine.

>>140602529
>Canned boss encounter where the only weapon you have is an empty gun that is standard-issue to all Bullet-kin, but in an act of defiance you throw your gun at him instead. The entire fight is comprised of this mechanic that most people don't realize exists.

>>140602682
The thing removes the "bullet" from "bullet hell" at no cost. Fightsabre does the same thing but it can only do it when reloading and it gives you curse which can come back to bite you in the form of jammed enemies/bosses and the lord. Blasphemy has no such downsides and in fact it actually still functions as a really strong piercing gun despite being a sword. It's leagues better than Excalibur could dream of being, and Excalibur is literally a gunsword.

I've recycled top tier items because they were out of ammo and I didn't feel like gambling on an unlikely ammo drop. If you don't feed it shit you can get some cool items. It's a pretty creative mechanic and has won me a few runs,

Thank god I had nanomachines too. I got through most of the floor thanks to them, it's a shame I ran out of all my ammo so soon

>>140625487
I always considered the pheonix a low tier gun but its range helped me a lot with the distant enemies. Thanks for the tips

>>140625737
Those aren't things I'd recommend in normal play, but I don't see what's wrong with doing them in the context of a Melting B-skin run. Oasis skip cuts the run shorter, giving you fewer opportunities to mess up, and also makes the subsequent levels easier by lowering the difficulty. Actually doing the oasis skip is trickier than just beating the first few levels normally, but frontloading the difficulty this way is good because you don't care if you die in the first minute and it allows you to make more attempts faster.

Euphoria normally sucks because post-loop, killing all the giant swarms of enemies as fast as possible while tanking stuff with bloodlust is generally more feasible than trying to dodge everything. However, when the entire goal is to not get hit ever, euphoria helps a LOT, and is particularly useful against Little Hunter and the Throne, which are the hardest parts of the run. Additionally, many of the mutations that are normally high tier or better are not useful in a Melting B-skin run, which means that Euphoria has less competition.

If you really want to make things easier, you can unlock the crown of risk beforehand, as it basically has no downside. You can also put a good weapon like an energy sword in the proto chest.

Alternatively, you can just keep trying without taking any additional steps to help yourself, and do it in 700 attempts like >>140590564

>>140626869

Alas, that run didn't end well

>>140627826

A lot of the "low tier" guns have qualities that make them helpful in certain situations. I've taken out much of the hollow with unfinished gun several times. Things like range, piercing, and beams can all be very useful.

>>140628957
Pretty sure it's affected by the range of the guns.
Mega Douser has great range.

>>140628957

>>140627826
I took many precautions every run I attempted it. I just found it impossible to never get hit in the frozen city at the little hunter fight with everything that was going on. I get to L2 pretty frequently, but I just can't do anything without taking damage during a single level later in the game.

>>140628321
Well congratulations, you certainly don't need any advice from me. However, there are still plenty of players out there who are worse than you and are struggling with this particular challenge. What's wrong with giving those players some actionable advice that can improve their chances of success? For those players, many of the tips I mentioned are things that they might have otherwise not thought about that can really help them.

Besides, there's more to "gitting gud" than just being good at shooting and dodging. An understanding of the game's systems and how to game the system, along with the ability to contextually evaluate the worth of different mutation choices are part of it as well. In a comparison between two players with equal mechanical skill, the one who has a better grasp of the game's systems and who makes better decisions will be more successful.

I'm particularly baffled by your dismissal of euphoria — what you seem to be saying is that even though euphoria is good in this context, you shouldn't take it because it's a "crutch". Imposing arbitrary restrictions on yourself outside of the rules of the game isn't "gud" — it's a scrub's mentality. If euphoria (or some other mutation) was really the best mutation for the situation, a good player would take it BECAUSE it's the best. They wouldn't avoid taking it to intentionally gimp themselves.

If you're the other anon that I included in my response (the one who took 700 tries), I didn't mean to single you out in particular.

>red mages can catch fucking lasers
WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA

>>140635084
normally they can't maybe just a property of that item?

>>140635318
They can catch shock rifles too.

Made it to the Dragun 3 times today, and 3 times I died.
Fucking hell, I really need to get a super meat gun or something to take that fucker out.

>>140635371
really? pretty sure ive used that to kill them before. no idea then they dont seem to be immune to all beams. fortunately they aren't bad. what's real bad is the book fuckers.

>>140635084
They can't catch beam weapons. You can clearly see individual bullets on that gun in the UI. What is so hard to understand about this?

>>140636807
>beam = laser

>unlock for killing dragun using just a klobbe
>it's klobbe 2.0
>as the lowest damage possible, can't even 1-shot the tiny blobulins, but fires so many fucking bullets your game lags up
Y/N

how the fuck do i fucking switch actives for fuck's sake

>>140636903
Beam = gun type in gungeon which you need to channel continuously to upkeep the stream. there are no increments of damage but a continuous beam.

You are whining about guns that shoot packets of energy. It just looks like a beam cause it leaves a trail of light behind it.

thanks

>>140638082
It's a fucking laser but it isn't a beam.
Checkmate, atheists.

Time to start Robot default gun only run.

>no artifact of command

Do I get cigs or grappling hook? Both are 35

>>140639879
I'd go with the cigs if this is the first or second chamber. I guess you could steal with the grappling hook later.

What does the forge woman do if you steal from her?

>>140639879

hook then steal ciggies

>>140639879
Cigs. Every time health drops, you smoke that health.

I'm assuming she just calls you a thief and all her shit disappears

this is from me stealing earlier in the run though

>void core weapons
Isn't it spelled corps?
Or does it have a little black hole inside of each gun or something?

She closes down her shops, but she still gives you the bollit.
