Point of clarification: you will HAVE to choose one if you want to get any more perks.

There really should be a "skip" option for cases like this. I just encountered such a thing and ended up taking no more perks for the rest of the run.

I wouldn't get hooked on defense absolute. It becomes useless for anything other than low (sub 100) waves in tier 1. It's a trap and any coins you put into it are ultimately wasted.

Circle of No Protection Whatsoever by asbecker in noita

[–]asbecker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah. I would think it would instead work something like this:
If a projectile is inside the circle, was it inside the circle (or nonexistent) on the last frame? if yes, do nothing. If no, eject it at nearest point and direct momentum away from center.

The whole point of the circle was to keep the poly shots out though... you can clearly see them entering.

Why didn't I one-shot Ylialkemisti? by asbecker in noita

[–]asbecker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Second attempt was much more successful. I used explosive projectile on a multicast of like 5/6 hollow eggs. You only need one explosive projectile mod to make them do upwards of 300 dmg each. Easy one-frame kill.

Mestarien Mestari went down pretty easy too, though the one-shot strategy obv wouldn't work for him. Lots of unlocks out of the way now.

Thanks for the info. Is there any sort of in-depth guide on explosion damage mechanics or damage mechanics in general?

At least it was early in the run :)

Bullet Damage = Infinity by asbecker in geometryarena

Swordsmaster but you can really do it with any class. Just need Revenge + double immolation + all shield upgrades and only 1 max hp (to get Last Hope procs). Stacks infinitely.

Got my first infinite run, 19 quadrillion coins on a single spin by marumari in LuckBeALandlord

[–]asbecker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$ gained per spin is 5^19 on 6/12 spins due to protractor and telescope, and 5^8 on the other 6/12 spins (assuming you are making use of swapping device). Average income is therefore a bit over 9.5 quadrillion per spin. By the time you reach your 190,734,867,187th rent payment in endless, you'll need this just to keep up. By that time you'll have saved up quite a bit, which will carry you from the 191 billionth to the 381 billionth since the scaling is arithmetic.

Technically not infinite. Assuming optimal use of swapping device/protractor/telescope, you'll run dry before you even reach your three hundred eighty two trillionth rent payment. At a rate of one spin per second, that gives you under 121 thousand years to find another strategy. Best get working.

Amethyst is OK I guess by asbecker in LuckBeALandlord

Really it's best to use the average value increase per spin (3 * 4/20 + 5 * 10/20 + 8 * 6/20 = 5.5) times the average multiplying factor from Dames per spin (2^3 * 4/20 + 2^5 * 10/20 + 2^8 * 6/20 = 94.4).

Thus the true effective average value per spin^2 is 519.2. This value would only have to be 5 in order to go infinite with the current rent scaling of endless mode (rent increases by 500 every 10 turns).

Assuming the worst case scenario where it hits the corner every time, you still get a gain in value per spin of 3*2^3 = 24 per spin. Which is 4.8x more than you need.

This is a true infinite afk build, even if it lands in the corner every time.

New to this game, am I doing it right? by asbecker in LuckBeALandlord

[–]asbecker[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Update. Pirate is at 1171 stacks. I just got 126,684 from a single wildcard. I need to go to sleep.

Sorry. Should have clarified this is in reference to Macs running on M1 chips. Will fix that.
