- 17 Things You DIDN’T Know About the False Son.
The False Son is a pretty complicated survivor in Risk of Rain 2 (Seekers of the Storm DLC). Lots of unique mechanics and interesting little tips & tricks for him and his growth mechanic. Infinite damage due to his lunar spikes, scaling with HP items, Stone flux pauldron being great on him, Death mark for some reason being great on him, etc.
DON'T PICK UP SHIELDS OR TRANSCENDENCE ON FALSE SON PLS ! RED ALERT !
Something something ror2 gameplay, seekers of the storm, keywords, etc.

False Son's a chill guy, ya know? He really said "If you can't beat em, join em" and casually became a playable survivor after being defeated. W's to him fr
to be fair we literally cured his schizophrenia
You gotta first cure him with the halcyon seed
"damn, didnt know you guys were chill like that" -false son joining the survivors
I like all of these interesting item synergies that I usually would never use, makes false son even more in depth than I thought.
one of the most unique survivors! kinda like how void fiend interacts with void items
great pfp btw!
That is a sick pfp that I’m sure not a lot of people here know what it is
@@Bansheindid you hear the new album is coming out next month
@@Deamos8294 yes! very excited for it
Off topic but am I crazy to say Transcendence + warped echo and like 3 teddy bears is some of the best survivability in the game? It completely changes how the items work and I love it, feels like its not gotten notice with warped echo being bugged to say the least.
warped echo making a comeback
Echo is also really funny with Wungus. "Oh no, I'm damaged. Lemme run it off"
Yeah, when I realized the first hit from echo didn't remove your "out of combat" state I was shocked, plus it synergizes really well with on damage taken items in general since it lets them proc twice off of one hit
I also love that on Seeker/Kur-skan you can just use your shift to avoid the delayed half of the damage from Warped Echo
@@rndThursday started at the bottom, now transcending to the top
I will say I appreciate your open-minded approach to the game, I feel like a lot of creators just play the same all the time with no variance and you put into words why i think the False Son is cool, universally good items are all well and good, but when an item that might normally just be mediocre or even bad is actaully super synergestic and powerful with a particular survivors kit,THAT feels really good breaks up the monotony of "oh boy how many crit glasses and atgs can i get"
Yes. I always think bison steak is meh when I get it, but with false son I would be pretty excited.
False Son is a survivor that I wasn't expecting to become one of my favorites when I first played him. I absolutely adore his design and gameplay, and how he synergizes with some unusual items.
In the future if Gearbox ever happens to polish him a little more, I will confidently say I have a new favorite survivor.
thanks man, watching raydans grab 6 stone flux pauldrons and being confused as to why people say its good hurt to watch from the bottom of my heart
so thank you for knowing that only 1 stone flux is needed
my pleasure to spread the good word 🙏
Luminous shot feels like it was made for this guy and his 4 base stock secondary that gets stocks easier than any other survivor
Luminous shot is also super duper busted on Railgunner and Mul-T. Railgunner just spams in and out of scope, and with Mul-T, just tapping his right nailgun in Power Mode stacks the buff almost as fast as Railgunner (and as a bonus, if you keep holding the left nailgun it won't consume stacks immediately; it waits until you release and use it after having stacked Luminous Shot)
I would like to tack on that Rex with the Self Damage Secondary skill is increibly good with Luminous Shot. You get a stack every .5 seconds.
Thanks rndThursday, I didn't know nothing about this facts since I can't read the menu
i serve to live
Something to note is that Lunar Spikes gained from growth start on cooldown, but backup mags don’t, which is why you can be super fast at the start of a stage
you forgot the slam having a 3.0 proc coefficient.... (holding left and right click)
but only the grounded one for some reason
All I learned from this is that MUL-T is way tankier than I initially thought.
knawledge
as much as I criticized the DLC's game design I gotta say, adding a character that makes HP items relevant was pretty based, I just wish he didn't look so much like a mod character x|
How does he look like a mod character?
@@voidication play modded characters and find out
@@voidication animations and skins and character model and just anything esthetic is just very bad to me
@@voidicationhave you tried using his utility lol it looks pretty awful
You also didn’t mention charging his laser and then transforming (volcanic egg, eccentric vase) allows you to fire his laser while in that form
me when the vase is eccentric
One thing i've never tried and still wonder about is if attack speed would increase the rate you fire the lunar spikes.
It does, if you get a ton of them from stone pauldron or something you can even see the fire rate decrease in real time as you fire them lol
yes cuz attack speed affects abilities!
When I discovered that Spinel Tonic interacted with Growth, it was INSANE. Easily one of the most fun runs I've ever had.
10:11 On that note, idk if it works differently on PC, but Luminous Shot will activate off of MUL-T’s secondary attack while in Power Mode!
Nail gun will only proc off initial trigger pull, but rebar will proc it every shot! Idk how the other two work but it’s a really cool and fun combo!!
Theres also a bug where attack speed is retained on the laser ticks even through runs lol. Tested with debugtoolkit with tritips to count ticks and syringe stacks.
48 ticks at base. 241 ticks after adding a ton of syringe. Exit to menu and load a new run, still 241.
Even if you play a fresh run this means temporary attack speed buffs like berserkers pauldron and predatory and tonic are much stronger than usual.
the lunar ruin counting as 2 debuffs also happened with collapse when sotv released, both are actually 2 seperate debuffs for the different components with one of them just being invisible.
5:25 also yeah, thats how level scaling works. every level your max health increases by 0.3 times the base value and all other stats that scale with level increase by 0.2 times the base value each level
5:45 no, that is NOT what it does, it stores xp seperately from your own level and the xp requirement for a level always starts at level 1 for the item. it effectively allows you to level up from level 1 again for only 20% of the stats
False son is my new fav survivor :) Also it is weird to think that Bison steak is actually better than backup mags on him :/
The only thing cammando Can kil 1:33
I've been enjoying how Seeker and False Sun use a lot of otherwise "dead" items. People say the new DLC items are bad, but they probably just build the same proc builds over and over...
I’ve learned a thing with the false son which lets you use his laser for the entire duration, all you have to do is just charge it, let go of the button, then hold the button and it lets you use his laser for the entire duration.
Despite i already know about that, i appreciate your efforts for sharing it with more people. False Son is honestly really fun to use, and instantly become my most used by game's info. His animations are the only downside for me.
Hella insane how rndThursday is lowkey saving Risk of Rain 2 and Gearbox from being cancelled by putting themselves on the other side of the spectrum when talking about the state of the game.
you should do an updated mod recommendation video for the new dlc
I’ve tested the piercing shot. On a slope down, aiming slightly up, it can pierce but it’s very wonky. It misses a lot of enemies but still kills a couple
We missed you rnd
half-tech for his ooga booga groundslam: if you get some height and then activate it, you’ll do increased damage in a wider radius, and if you get high enough you’ll still have a bounce at the end. Even though gearbox removed charging up the ground slam infinitely, those other affects are built into the attack
on the topic of is charged m1: with lots and lots of attack speed, the grounder pounder wont connect with enemies or the ground, and not do damage. I’d guess the attack is resetting before it finishes the smacking part of its previous sledgehammer special. However, a jumping charged m1 still hits like normal so its whatever
and not really a secret tech at all but something to watch out for when using luminous shot with false son (which is kinda nice tbh): Charging up his m1 sometimes does a small regular attack right before he starts his charge, which can consume the luminous shot stacks prematurely. Sometimes it’s wort it to turn around to charge up and then 180 smash to get the big damages
and it doesn’t matter but the buff from step of the brothers is probably from the ramping explosion effect of the dash. Fun fact ig
I really love how they made bison steak and infusion actually good with false son. But I would've preferred a buff
the fact that he was made in the same patch as chef is crazy
Now he is my second most loved survivor
Acrid still my beloved
Hey rnd, I just wanted to drop by and say how absolutely blown away I am by your outstanding video editing skills! Every transition, effect, and creative touch you add makes your videos not just content but true works of art. It's clear that you pour immense passion and effort into every upload, and it really elevates the viewing experience. Your consistency in bringing us high-quality content is something I genuinely appreciate-it’s become a highlight I look forward to regularly!
As a commando main, sometimes it's hard for me to put into words just how much I enjoy your videos. So, I had ChatGPT help me out in expressing my appreciation. Keep up the phenomenal work, and I can't wait to see what you have in store next..
ps. YEEEE RND
Honestly, I prefer the Seeker over the False Son. Her healing from her M2 is very strong, and her alt M2 synergizes very well with Sojourn. Not only that, but Sojourn also synergizes very well with both Razorwire and Repulsion Armor Plates.
Thanks for the 14 tips!
Stoneflux + soletude + brital crown. Infinite money and infinite levels which means infinite growth.
i was extremely surprised when i first played false son because of how much fun i was having …. i honestly think he’s my favorite of all survivors just because of how fun it is to slam things
P.S. if you didn’t know, slamming from height ignores fall damage :)
I got to eclipse 7 without knowing you can charge his laser, goes to show how broken this character is
10:08 how the fuck is Antler shield underrated? This shit only deals minimal damage if you get hit
Love the fact video, I hope to see more of them or something similar in the future
I could've sworn Mul-T's Rebar Puncher has another instance of 'piercing' without being highlighted. In the event that I'm remembering correctly Laser Burst is most likely just some keyword inconsistencies
rebar puncher is also fake piercing it like bounces weirdly off enemies
False son has actually become my favorite survivor
Chef and false son are oddly inversed. False son has a lot if depth for item synergies and tech compared to most survivors and is super strong but has really crappy and janky animations. Chef hiwever aesthetically looks pretty great but his kit is extremely meddling in synergies, combo potential, and tes chef is just 100% worthless.
Awww man I have to wait another day or something I guess... Dangit!
i could be wrong but i was sure that his laser duration stacked with health even from leveling up
You can also get a curse from shrine of shaping
Fanally a use for prayer beads.
Always like characters that make lesser used items good
the most important tip: download false son m2 tweaks mod
I would love to actually know how the Seed of Life equipment works! A perfect video as always, really entertaining
After use, whether by saving yourself from death or reviving fallen allies, the consumed version can be planted in the ground to spawn healing orbs with a short cooldown.
@@avi8aviate But how though? I haven’t been able to activate it in a single run
@@asdfsupermariosunshi it auto uses if you die, and if you use it while a teammate is dead it will revive them
@@avi8aviate, it's pretty neat that they made equipment have some small usage instead of making it do nothing after proccing. Still, only 1 equipment is so little...
@@asdfsupermariosunshi Die with it equipped or activate it to revive allies. You might have to be near an ally though; I don't know for sure since I haven't played multiplayer since the update.
Now if only I could actually get him, can barely beat the boss as is. Had 10 stacks of tougher times and got OBLITERATED by the laser without any of them procing ):
W video but 17 is such a weird number to me idk why
tfw the playable version of the boss is actually still good
what if the false son was the true son and i(the player) was his dad
this is big !
False son is the best survivor in the game tbh, and by that i mean how powerfull he is bc if u look at his animations he is the WORST survivor in the game
I like False Son as a character but the difference in quality between him and the other survivors is too egregious so I won't be personally playing him until they finish him.
The laser that doesn't pierce also can't crit
I knew all these things...
Smart boy!
you're welcome
False SwawS
I might be tripping but i grabbed a hardlight afterburner and it gave me more lunar spikes
If what i saw is actually what happened then growth might be dependent on general stat growth
Im gonna go test then and i'll update this comment once ive tested this
This almost made me rebuy the dlc
thanks dad for the education, by the way how was your trip to palm beach?
i don't know anything about the false son because i don't have the dlc yet
It may be in the comments already but what mod pack are you using to see the stats like that?
looking glass mod
I know about all the bugs and thats all.
5:00 aint that the old wiki?,
what mod do you use to show your stats on the right? i thought betterUI was taken down
looking glass now!
Doesn't Acrid also not spawn from a drop pod though?
We dont know because we just play paladin instead.
does chef count as melee…
I knew all these
well now you do
Stop the cap
@@rndThursday You’re right I lied forgive me goat
Why does blud pronounce wiki as "weekee"
What stat mod is that
Young Eric Robinson Patricia Rodriguez Anna
Idk if someone else has already said this, but if you charge his beam and then hold the key again afterwards, it'll keep the beam going until its timer resets. So if you have bandolier and pick one of its drops up then itll end the beam but other words at the start of a run this can be helpful.
Didnt they fix it in the first patch and introduced slam hover bug which was also fixed?
Both were fixed yeah
HI MR THURSDAY!!!!!!!!!!!
hey silly
HI DE
HI DE
@@bloogaHI GOOGA HI GOOGA
Having more growth is nice and all but that cooldown to get all the spikes back is so slow
