There's so many cool little tweeks running on the background of this game... From easy waves after unexpectedly hard ones to this exp modifier thing, there's a lot more thought put into the game than what it seems at first glance
I came to learn about the mystery of why I sometimes level up five times at once, but I'm more immediately confused at how he's able to skip the treasure chest animation
it works after youve seen a certain chest a certain amount of times so press b or whatever button it is for you on them and once it Eventually does it you can keep skipping them
Hear me out here. A maze map with no time limit and the map only shows "?" all over. With one in the" middle" being a coffin, some other item, or even a speedrun style get to the middle first. The map changes its pattern so pathing is harder to learn.
wouldn't it better to take the explosion arcana first? that can speed up ur early lvl.ing a lot. just do ur usual face planting into enemies ;) ... u would have a 3/4 chance for tiramisu arcana at min 11:00 ... which could be a run killer, if u dont get it :/
I feel like this is something you could do a thousand times, and it would go differently every single time. almost need to ignore chests entirely, or it screws everything up. something like, focus death spiral, so at 10min you get that upgrade, rest of weapons are kind of whatever. maybe lightning ring for some edge clearing. Edit: this lets you skip tiragisu, going for something else. maybe luck, assuming that affects chance to crit?
garlic evolves with pummarana to do Soul Eater that has a screen-wide range, and steals HP whip can also be evolved to a hp-stealing ability. spinach is the way to evolve it, but i'm not sure. a third weapon: the union of the two guns a fourth gun: the two birds and the last one, the knife who becomes a star of destruction thing is, axe are awesome too, cats too. too bad cats can't be united.
I would like to see harder bosses, I think adding special levels where at 30 mins a super high hp boss with dodge able attacks spawn and maybe a possible cycle between a boss roster (new boss every week)
Hey Nate, I have the 273 level World Record, video still on my channel. I don't save any exp until late. but I though i lost the WR last night to a 276 but its was pulled down.
i was able to get my reaper kill like this, not at level 2 but i was like 13 or so until the end. then I quickly grabbed laurel and lancet and whatever else I could get
People are sleeping on the Hellfire + Heart of Fire card combo. It mows down crowds insanely fast, even the last wave at 29 minutes was getting cleared out pretty well. When I was on Leda, it was doing 22K DPS and managed to do about 2.8 million damage in just a few minutes.
Hellfire + Heart of Fire is so nasty, I love it. Especially with the Arcana that lets your fireballs bounce around the screen. It's chaos and madness and way too effective.
As far as I know, this is the level glitch where you keep gathering EXP on low levels and get a single red gem with all the exp at level 40. The reason you collect it at level 40 is because of how the levelling works, and for some reason it takes more exp to go from 40 -> 41 than to go from 34 -> 40, so it gives crazy growth on that one level (+100%), and if you collect a red gem with exp equivalent to nearly all of the game, it gives more levels than just playing normally. It is banned on the main leaderboards, but it is allowed on the limitless boards (along with other glitches and missingno). The level record with it on the board is 312 with Leda
When going through this, I know the build and getting closer to that 40 level is a little bit tricky, but while going through did you consider waiting to grab tomes 2 and 3? Since you can overcap with the map drops? I had a tome level 7 last night and it was completely stupid for cooldowns
@@Grimm___gaming I didn't play the game for like a month. I remember I tried it, but the number is still 35%or I don't know. The tome can be lv 7 but the number at the left of screen showed the same as it were lv5. Test again?
I think they should add pvp of some kind… 15 minutes to lvl your toon against waves then teleported in to a dueling arena 5v5 maybe:) makes for some cool team build ideas with carries and such!!
Also, could be wrong here, but the record for exp stacking (what you did on this run) is consider "limitless" and not an official record. Also that limitless record is 312 at the moment
@@NeverNathaniel kejay's lvl 312 on library is on the board, but its under limitless. it was done on leda, i asked Stat in discord why, as they do approvals for the boards. I asked her why it was limitless and the response some close to "it was probably the exp stacking that got them in limitless but I didn't approve it"
U could just leave a gather item till the very end once u no longer need anymore lvls. I just did this and it ended up giving me over 50 lvls at the end as reaper was killing me and I didn’t even have a build meant for lvling it was just build to reach 100 for achievement
guys, can anyone please tell me how to obtain the ability to ban/skip an item? it is hard to get the exactly items you need, but with the ban ability, things will be much easier. I saw people have it, but I just don't know how to have it. Thanks.
@@skulver thanks for reply. man~ so skip and banish is different and need upgrade? well... after you upgrade, can you choose which one to use? and what do you mean by 50/60 and 70??? i still don't understand that part...
@@skulver wow thanks a lot skulver! =D man... it seems that there is still a long way for me to go..... and as a $3 USD game, VS is a really really worth it game of the year + must buy game! XD
This explains the random massive level ups I would get on occasion! Very insightful and helpful.
I still don't get it..
min/max more by banishing before using rerolls when you know there are things you never want for a run. You rolled garlic a few times
I really like the intros with you talking over the footage. Gives us some context without boring us. Kudos

You can press escape to skip it I dont think it works with the 5 item chest but it does with the single and triple
B on Xbox
it works after youve seen a certain chest a certain amount of times
so press b or whatever button it is for you on them and once it Eventually does it you can keep skipping them
You can overcap using the additional tomes. Even though it says you have the same bonus in the pause menu the cooldown is definitely faster.

With a minotaur boss spawning at various time intervals!
U mean likes randomly generated dungeon?

what if you go Pugnala and avoid the gun search altogether
It is all rng, run to run changes.
Could you maybe put timestamps in the video if you restart a run? I only want to watch the final run
garlic evolves with pummarana to do Soul Eater that has a screen-wide range, and steals HP
whip can also be evolved to a hp-stealing ability. spinach is the way to evolve it, but i'm not sure.
a third weapon: the union of the two guns
a fourth gun: the two birds
and the last one, the knife who becomes a star of destruction
thing is, axe are awesome too, cats too. too bad cats can't be united.
Whip evolves with hollow heart, and gains lifesteal. Fire wand evolves with spinach.
So that's what happens when you stand still, it looks like you're not getting gems but it's actually all contained within one red gem
I love watching these runs
I would like to see harder bosses, I think adding special levels where at 30 mins a super high hp boss with dodge able attacks spawn and maybe a possible cycle between a boss roster (new boss every week)
I got a super good run yesterday for most kills on this map and ended up 300 or so less kills than #1. I'm #2 on the leaderboard atm.
Nice work! Once I beat this stupid Toastie reaper kill, I will pivot back to doing leaderboard runs again.
Good shit mate. 275 is the library record if I recall, was 273 the other day by the same guy

Hi Nathan! Can we get a "First Upgrade Only" Challenge.
Came up with the idea of only choosing the top item in your level up.

What is this square in the center of the screen and on the right I keep seeing at 18:22 ?
That would be your map, it is an unlock.
@@richardwilliams2475 OHHHHH! Guess I'm not nearly as far as I thought I was ;p ♥ Thank you
And what kind of music do you use? Where can I listen to it?
super helpful, although I’m still confused how to figure out which is the mega gem

How does he have the pointer things to the empty tome I always have to look on the map to find out how far I have to go still
Turn On Guides button when you have the map open
Vampire Survivors + Death Stranding = Undeath Stranding
When going through this, I know the build and getting closer to that 40 level is a little bit tricky, but while going through did you consider waiting to grab tomes 2 and 3? Since you can overcap with the map drops? I had a tome level 7 last night and it was completely stupid for cooldowns
Does tome lv 7 work differently from lv 5? I tested in 0.3, but I didn't see any difference.
@@hanyanglee9018 I could have been imagining things, but I felt like the items that I had equipped were going a good bit faster

What song at the beginning?
What is this char that looks like death but its kinda buggged
Why do your axes fly so high? Mine only go a bit above my character
Also, could be wrong here, but the record for exp stacking (what you did on this run) is consider "limitless" and not an official record. Also that limitless record is 312 at the moment
Limitless refers to using MissingNo. I am pretty sure that exp stacking is allowed, but I would have to check.

U could just leave a gather item till the very end once u no longer need anymore lvls. I just did this and it ended up giving me over 50 lvls at the end as reaper was killing me and I didn’t even have a build meant for lvling it was just build to reach 100 for achievement
So does skull have any positives aside from like higher chance for special enemies to spawn?
It’s higher enemies per spawn and more spawns per wave. At 100% curse, that’s double the enemies per spawn and twice as many spawns.
@@NeverNathaniel oh cool ty.
So what level is thr Reaper? 40 or ur current level
Hello. How do you see the arrows pointing at the map upgrades? Is it a mod?
You have to find the Milky Way Map in Dairy Plant, then you can turn them on in the pause menu by clicking the show guide button on bottom right.
How do you have so many revives?
The red gem for an afk build.
Excluding Gorgeous Pentagram which erases enemies and collects gems.
Wow that's crazy!
Nice clipe bro from Norway😎
Has the bug been fixed where empty tomes need to be leveled up first in order to gain the cooldown effect on weapons?
Yeah, a couple of patches ago that was fixed.
@@zerikafox1595 oh sweet thanks
could u name your music play list cuz everytime i tries to identify 1 single song you talk..ALOT :D and some of that music sounds great to me ty :)
Mad.. i hate being called nate but nath, nathan or Nathaniel no problem for me
curious, how do you move between levels? i can never even move an inch, wondering how you can consistently
He uses a controller.

I use a controller as well but can't you just hold the left click?

No hate but is there any way you could take the chat off screen it would make it a lot more enjoyable
Had an itch to buy this game but I've watched a lot of replays of it that I don't need to buy it anymore, I know how it's going to go 👌
Not the point of games it's not story based its doing it yourself even if you know the builds
You need to try this with toastie :P
Why particular at lvl 40 u get 2x exp?
For some reason, at level 20 and 40, you get temporary 100% experience boost. Super strange.
@@NeverNathaniel How was anyone able to find this out?
abysmal math skills but good game play
they should make "the red gem" white.
isn't that 220 levels? 40 + 220 = 260? math is hard af
interesting
The survivor balancing is so bad, at this point they can just stop having different survivors.
When i see ppl pick the guns i stop the Video because later they turn into OP Lasers wich Makes the game trivial. Thank god This isnt one of em
Great video ;)
Now create a way to make it work at toastie and u ae a god XD
The title is a lie. Even with ALL of the xp in the end, you gained 221 levels, not 230.
that's what i was thinking
so it's a useless strat because you need to get the right gem.
Vampire Survivors? Really? You missed a chance to make the perfect game title for this Vampire Survivors/ Death Stranding crossover:
Death Survivors.
I like your videos, but I can't listen to you say Tiragisu one more time.
