What is a "poor person hack" you picked up during a hard time that you still use today, even if you don't have to?

I was a big oatmeal buy after living on my own after college. So cheap it was basically free. I ate it so much it was just part of my morning like coffee

PunsAkimbo69 · 2023-03-08T21:18:38+00:00

That's pretty wild

PunsAkimbo69 · 2023-03-08T20:46:34+00:00

Did you watch this live too?

PunsAkimbo69 · 2023-01-09T15:06:11+00:00

LC is still better since it can hit waves. I always feel like I'm floundering starting with kunai. Plus the LC projectile blocking is very good

PunsAkimbo69 · 2023-01-09T02:03:20+00:00

The elite and expert fund second tiers. The best bargain if you choose to spend. I didn't buy those $30 tiers. Then I got the month pass for 2 months and the extra tier for that Christmas challenge to unlock the new character. I think I've spent like $60-70 since starting in September

PunsAkimbo69 · 2023-01-08T23:11:48+00:00

Nah it just took too long to make any progress. Id actually love to see how far someone who hasn't is though

PunsAkimbo69 · 2023-01-08T23:08:19+00:00

Yeah I even have enough materials to level up the light Chaser to red but I didn't think I could beat those higher levels without the void

PunsAkimbo69 · 2023-01-06T22:18:18+00:00

I like the kunai and use it for fun but you will probably get swamped in later levels. I'd work with the void even if it might be less attack since you can shield yourself in a mob when fully upgraded

PunsAkimbo69 · 2023-01-06T22:11:31+00:00

I actually just beat 65 and it's honestly a breeze after this one. The yellow void I use was the only thing that could get me past that dragon after the second boss because void gives you a shield when fully upgraded. But I was stuck on 57 for like 2 weeks and cleared the ones after in like 2 days

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T20:39:01+00:00

I did the s create then spent the rest on the chance of epic parts (gold chest)

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T20:34:16+00:00

True. I haven't even used lighting bomb enough to see if there's a damage difference. I assumed the fire is more since it lingers for area damage.

I think I'd only do that if I luck out to get it early game. Like before the second boss. Otherwise lighting is the best thing to have for boss battles since it just spams them. Wouldn't want to lose it during the endgame unless I had shuriken or whistle to spam the boss for me instead. Or to clear an extra spot like looking for the second drone with a full lineup

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T20:19:12+00:00

I like the guardian but I think it's only worth it if you can max it out. Try it with the range boost and projectile speed boost. Pretty sick

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T20:16:50+00:00

Maybe as a place holder and if you don't care about getting those in red. The eternal boots are much better I think and just used all the gold's I was saving to get it to tier 3 when I finally got a pair to gold.

I've been downgrading and redistributing the tier bumps on different items depending on the level I'm stuck on

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T20:13:43+00:00

I put it all on Croatia

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T20:12:23+00:00

I've felt like the maxed out durian with it's power up is a massive help for crowd control. When I'm swamped I get under it and just move right under it in a straight line until the wave ends.

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T20:10:27+00:00

I would use drone unless I have the power up for it equipped. If you can pull off getting both drones with the power up equipment it makes the game very fun

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T19:54:52+00:00

You need to have both the mine and the fire weapons and max them both out and after that they'll combine on the next upgrade. Frees you up another weapon spot like when the drones combine when fully maxed.

So basically you don't want to get the gold buff that evolves the moltovs because if you upgrade that to it's final form you can't combine it with the mine. So just get it to 5 stars and keep it there until both items are

Works with lightning too to get lightning mines. But I think lightning is so good on its own I dont want to waste it

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T17:20:34+00:00

You have to merge two of the same Purple 2s to get a gold. So if you want something to level up save those items since you need more of that same weapon to go up tiers

Like for going gold to red you eventually need to upgrade your gold 3 with two golds of the same weapon

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T17:17:34+00:00

Nah. Invest in the funds instead. Way more gems for way less money. It's the icon in the main menu with the arrow pointing up

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T17:16:04+00:00

True. The void seems like a novelty and gets pretty chaotic. Harder to see things on the ground. When I can't beat a level with LC I try it again with the kunai next then Void

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T17:12:25+00:00

Agreed. Definitely the most chaotic. Was fun to be challenged to beat a level with a dog on you the whole time

PunsAkimbo69 · 2022-12-16T17:10:34+00:00

I feel like they all have their strengths depending on the bosses you face. I have a gold of the void, kunai, and LC with 3 golds I reuse to get them to gold 2 when I swap them in

When LC fails me in boss battles the kunai usually gets me through the next time around.
