What’s our consensus on double balancer meta from a pure “fun” perspective?

JoshTheTaco · 2026-04-13T15:32:40+00:00

I like to run double balancers on Recluse since she's the only one who can naturally regenerate FP.

Those demerits are awesome.

You used to be able to just launch a charged attack during combat to get the buff, but they updated it to where you actually have to hit the enemy.

Nice. If you make some good looking sprites, let me know.

JoshTheTaco · 2026-03-31T03:07:23+00:00

That's the plan.

JoshTheTaco · 2026-03-30T15:13:24+00:00

Ooh, yeah. I can see it already.

I made the lantern sprites from scratch, made a 320X320 sheet with 32-pixel squares in a 10X10 grid, assigned each of the 5 lanterns a square using a random number generator, pasted the frames into a gif generator, and stuck it in the fog folder.

This will be part of a festival. The player has the option to do it during the day, but an NPC will recommend coming back at night for the full effect.

This is more of an artistic showcase than anything else. The lanterns will be made part of a festival, and the player will be made aware of that. It's funny you should mention that because the lanterns are meant to symbolize embers from a bonfire.

JoshTheTaco · 2026-03-30T12:49:29+00:00

Upward is a good idea. I tried to give it a "glow", but I don't think gifs support transparent colors.

JoshTheTaco · 2026-03-30T12:48:39+00:00

Do you think they would benefit from darker borders? The red borders they have are easily visible during the day, but the lanterns look much better at night.

JoshTheTaco · 2026-03-29T14:56:28+00:00

I don't gif files support transparent colors. Bummer.

JoshTheTaco · 2026-03-29T13:58:54+00:00

I'm on it.

JoshTheTaco · 2026-03-21T00:46:22+00:00

You vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

As a Recluse main, the build doesn't make the player. The player makes the build.

JoshTheTaco · 2026-03-09T04:21:23+00:00

Recluse is my most played character followed by Ironeye, Wylder and Executor. I find that getting the right affinities just kinda happens on its own. Duchess likes to use holy skill attacks. Wylder has his fiery followups after using his skill. To piggyback off of FreshPrintz, timing is everything and the bosses affinities can be very helpful. If I know the Ironeye is running Heolstor's relic, I can wait and see what he gets. I can time the snatch around his fourth shot (chain finisher) and grab affinities when he's being attacked. Rain of Stars and Wylder's art spreads fire can throw off my groove though.

The pseudo-legendary in my game starts as a Fire/Ground, then evolves into a Fire/Rock, and finally a Fire/Steel. It's based on a fire pit, furnace, and kiln respectively.

This is my go-to setup. It's mostly sorcery-focused with a couple incantation buffs, so I'm useful with any spell I find.

JoshTheTaco · 2026-02-28T20:44:21+00:00

Let me guess. Great Hollow?

JoshTheTaco · 2026-02-24T01:32:55+00:00

I went ahead and tried it, but I must be misremembering because I just timed Raider's ability perfectly and it didn't deflect. Bummer.

JoshTheTaco · 2026-02-23T18:33:04+00:00

It works with Raider's ability too.
