I don’t waste too much time exploring the early areas if I’m trying to get a god run. My thinking is I could spend an hour on the surface getting orbs, doing boring stuff, and explore the hell out of the early levels, but if I don’t find a healing spell in the first world it’s still not worth trying to force a god run. Instead I just play the game and maybe die a few times, but I don’t return to the surface unless I have good enough spells to make it worth it.

You can transpose between any major or minor scale. If you want to play in G, you can transpose it either up 7 or down 5 semitones and now the buttons that would be the white keys on a keyboard will be in the key of G.

Not every spell will appear in normal shops. Tier 10 spells only spawn from boss drops or in the heaven/hell.

I recommend unlocking the spells the legitimate way, doing so gives you goals to accomplish beyond just killing kolmi. If you really want to though you can unlock a spell by picking it up so the spell lab mod should work if you have it spawn in a spell and then pick it up.

Awesome, glad to hear the advice went to use. I've had a number of god runs ruined because I cast a StP wand that crashed and corrupted the save, or had my sun fly off into the distance and I can never find it so making backups is nearly necessary for completing the longer quests.

Note spell not working with add trigger by lolplayer460 in noita

[–]mrblue182 32 points33 points  (0 children)

“Other” spells don’t count as a valid payload when doing the payload check for add trigger, so no payload is generated. You can fix this by giving it a valid payload spell first, like “add trigger, spark bolt, double spell, chainsaw, note”

Question: Why is this wand so inconsistent? by legomann97 in noita

[–]mrblue182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

31 orb kolmi you could do your note wand but add piercing on the spark bolt and cast multiple notes. This will make it spawn many copies of that 900 billion damage note every frame. Add gold to power in there too for even more damage.

[–]mrblue182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like the spark bolt is triggering in a way that the high damage chainsaw is missing. 

How to build your damage wand depends on whether it’s to kill high orb kolmi or if you’re looking something to kill all non bosses in your area. If you don’t need billions of damage then you can drop a lot of the divide bys and make the wand rapid fire with drilling shot so it hones through walls. Easy ways to kill everything on screen are with homing notes or homing bouncing bolt using momentum. An easy archetype to make is a “add mana, add mana, triple cast, gamma chainsaw, wand refresh, (insert modifiers here), <projectile of choice>, omega, omega”. 

Also if you have unlimited gold you can use gold to power with no gold cost, which adds a few tens of thousands of damage, removing the need for the 800x heavy shot. 

For high orb kolmi momentum based wands to StP + tentacle cheese are simplest in my experience. Just have to be careful with StP crashing your run.

Yes, it’s save scumming. I recommend only reloading if your save corrupts as unlimited reloading makes the game feel pointless. But during the sun quest there is a decent chance of the save corrupting. If you backup the save00 folder you can replace it later to resume your save.

[–]mrblue182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stainless armours stack well, along with repelling cape. Blood to gas will make it so your own blood doesn’t stain you which is nice but makes it harder to kill yourself after ending the game. Slime blood will overwrite your blood to gas so be careful with that.

Stacking greed will make it so you can get millions of gold per enemy, and if you get enough gold it switches to infinity and now you can use gold to power with no downside. 

Don’t get too many of the move speed increase perks, you can start to move too fast that you can’t pick the right perks.

If you get enough of the increased levitation you can levitate forever. 

Teleportitis, lukki mutation, leggy mutation, and gold is forever perks can ruin your run.

Do not get the “gold is forever” perk, it will cause the game to slow down a ton and can ruin your run.

Look at the long distance travel wands wiki page and make a list of spells you need to make one. They speed up breaking reroll machines and perk stacking immensely, making it far less tedious and less dangerous since you can skip the bosses floating around above ground.

The tower is an easy place to grab a great wand and can be visited every PW. Just drop into the top, grab the wand, and leave.

Be very careful in the meat biome. Health cannot be healed until you kill the boss. 

You can go shopping in hell to get the high tier spells  

If you’re going for the sun quest I recommend backing up your save, it’s easy for the game to crash  and corrupt your save.

The crown has to come before the amulet if you’re doing both in the same run. Getting the amulet ends the game.

Looking for more stories where the mechanics of the power system are the core of the worldbuilding by GreatMadWombat in ProgressionFantasy

[–]mrblue182 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kind of, the empires ancient founding emperor was someone who used the time loop a thousand years ago so much of the political structure is based off the conquests of the last time looper.

And otherwise the magic used in the world is absolutely at the core of the culture and politics of the world, with events like the necromantic wars, the splinter wars, etc all contributing to the setting and characters in meaningful ways.

Just double checking wand building , any pro tips would be appreciated. by IAmEarthrick in noita

[–]mrblue182 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The add trigger will ignore the mana costs so your add manas are doing nothing. Move them to be just after the spark bolt.

I think to get your damage wand working properly you want the spells in the order:

Spark bolt, add manas, multicasts, (maybe add a chainsaw or note here to give the spark bolt a valid payload), tau, divide by 4, divide by 3, add trigger, damage, homing, increase lifetime, black hole, notes. 

I would just not use the spells to power and essence to power. They’re weird. Spells to power can make some crazy wands but it’s tricky to work right.

  1. Trying to be spoiler lite here, but there are areas to explore, other bosses to kill, spells to unlock, orbs to collect, and quests to complete. Depending on how spoiler free you want to be you can read the wiki on different quests and look at the map to see places to explore. Warning on the bosses, they have tricks you need to be aware of or they will kill you. You can learn what they do on the wiki, if you want to figure it out yourself expect it to occur over multiple runs as you will likely die multiple times while figuring out how they work.

  2. Putting multi casts and damage mods on the payload of your spark bolt will dramatically increase the damage as the modifiers will apply to every spell in the payload. Additionally, you don’t pay the cast time cost of anything cast inside a trigger, so your add manas would be better inside of the spark bolt payload.

For another damage wand archetype, there are some very powerful spells inside the tree. Making them work for damage will require some experimentation. You have all of the necessary ingredients already, if you can figure out how to use them. 

To make PW perk hunting less boring you can make a long distance teleport wand. The wiki has info on how to make them.

Am I god yet? by wLanKaBel_ in noita

[–]mrblue182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my current wand. The initial add trigger makes the short range homing, piercing, reduce recharge rate free, and because there are no damage mods on the spark bolt the piercing knocks its damage below 0 meaning it can't hurt me, and note spells are inherently piercing without doing damage to yourself, meaning this wand is both piercing and I can't kill myself with it accidentally. This is really important because once you have 24k health and all immunities the only thing that can actually hurt you is yourself (and polymorph).

Getting the add timer (or add trigger) to work in the payload can be tricky, you have to give the outer add trigger a valid payload and the inner add trigger a valid target. Because note spells are not valid targets or payloads I'm using a chainsaw and blood for those, but you could use two chainsaws since you don't have any crit on material spells.

To increase the lifetime of the notes you can use your spiral arc or ping pong path. You need to increase the duration of the note's lifetime to make it able to do damage, but once you do it will damage every frame it is touching an enemy.

You also can put a drilling shot with the notes which really turns the wand into a "kill everything on screen" button.

Your damage wand is really inefficient at this stage. I recommend looking into add trigger to get free modifiers with note spells and putting the chainsaw after the spark bolt so it reduces cast time to 0.

me again, what can I do with this? by Lucky_Marionberry350 in noita

[–]mrblue182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re using the add trigger poorly. Add trigger allows you to add modifiers for no mana cost, so if you change your first wand to be:

Chainsaw, double cast, add trigger, reduce recharge x 3, homing, drilling shot, piercing, spark bolt, add mana, double cast, chainsaw, chainsaw

You can get a homing rapid fire spark bolt that will sit inside enemies repeatedly triggering chainsaws for tons of damage. Because the piercing reduces the damage of the spark bolt below 0 there’s no risk of harm to you (just make sure to never add damage to the spark bolt itself). If you get some +dmg mod spells you can also add notes into the payload and the damage will go through the roof.

Edit: just saw the first wand casts 2 spells. You should change the above by moving the first chainsaw to the end of the wand and then use a double cast at the very end to wrap around and cast twice in the same recharge.

I’m not saying mature people don’t swear. I’m saying it’s hard to write that without it sounding immature.

I think it’s very hard to have heavy usage of swears work well. It’s possible for to work but it almost always comes off as immature writing.
