look at me... I AM THE CAPTA- nevermind... too easy
-IN NOW
Respect
the re geting micro is a glitch ghor said this when someone asked in the risk game discussion
*cough* visions of heresy = 12 orbital strikes *cough* stack for more (+12 orbitals per stack)
You can get more than 1 stack of microbots from the doppelganger artifact
1:41 I believe killing the doppelganger gives an additional one if you don't have anything equipped, very useful tech i know
This is 100% correct. This also achieves filling the logbook for the item.
Yes, it does. This is the only way to get the logbook for the microbots too AFAIK.
Can also confirm that this is possible, have all the items in the logbook thanks to this.
It does, I did it to fill out my logbook, or the item portion anyways.
What is the doppelganger?
i find that soilder syringes are SOO... POWERFUL with captain... you can immediately feel the effects with a couple.
agreed as well as the focus crystals and the tri-tip daggers with the new effect
Around 12-15 he really gets going. You eventually just stop scoping and face-tank everything.
Put behemoth on the list too
Captain: Overdosed soldier syringes
Lemurian:WTF
Or you can use 2 primordial instincts and stack glasses X10. Increased atk speed also increases the defensive microbots rate of blocking incoming attacks
I'm just gonna start maining him because he looks badass
How could you not be badass when your arm is a shotgun?
Captain is a chad
ikr, he's like Yarrick from 40k, but with a shotgun instead of a power klaw for an arm
@@kipras1412 Ever seen Stukov from star craft? His arm is mutagenic, but he gives me Captain vibes
Jackle yeah stukov looks pretty on point too
I actually really like his stun pylon. If you place it in a strategic spot (especially when you get the teleporter in an area with really clear bottleneck approaches) it lets you just entirely focus on the boss, then occasionally look down and go "Oh hey, like 40 dudes trapped in my circle that's conveniently about the same size as an orbital strike"
I've found bleeds to be quite effective as the captain - you can stack up an absolutely ridiculous amount of them very quickly and they will cause everything to melt.
yeah i had a run recently with like 500+ stacks of bleed on mithrix. it was absolutly bonkers
9 tri-tips, capped crit, and a shatterspleen makes your shotgun proc 16 bleeds per shot
2 primodial instincts and 10 stacked glasses can also be pretty hilarious with the bot blocking shots and all plus the attack speed increase
had like 1.5k stacks on the siren's call boss with tritips and shatterspleen.
Commando:
Honestly, I think the captain is one of the best, most balanced characters in the game.
He has the most versatility in the game with his primary(except for mul-t), a decent crowd control option, an insanely powerful "utility", and the supply beacons are just crazy.
The reason he isnt overpowered is because of how dependent on items he is. He has one of the slowest primaries in the game, a pretty meh secondary, and ALL of his mobility comes from items.
Most players before 1.0: *Used Lunar to go to Siren’s Call because it’s an easier red item than Abyssal Depths*
Players after 1.0: *Slickity slackity gold chest go hackity*
Well yes... But in multiplayer the gold chest still only drops 1 item rather than 1 item per player
@@Fire5stone it drops 1 item regardless if it's singleplayer or multiplayer though.
@@FPSRayn he's saying sirens call is better for multiplayer because you get as many red items as there are players. While the legendary chest in abyssal depths only drops one item regardless.
@@cobalt4161 ah, I see. Thanks for the explanation.

Community: Please, give us the Sniper
Other part of the community: Please, give us the Enforcer
Hopoo: What if they had a child?
I want chef back, love that character!
I still want enforce boi separate tho
Community actually voted for a new character. Sniper was close though, so next vote might be him or another new one if they have another vote.
Your opinion is invalid
"~Post made by Chef Gang"
Yeah a new survivor was 1st place in the vote, sniper was 2nd place, and chef was 3rd place
I would imagine Brainstalks + Orbital strike would be insane.
You can fire it under effect 2-3 times
@@KR420MZN Yeah, it isn't until you have 2or more that the duration is really long enough to do much with.
Bandolier is already broken with it. You can hit the utility key, pick up an ammo bag and spam 6 in a row then pick up whatever is left in the rubble and do it again
@@SweatPants pick up visions of heresy on him and thank me later. Each stak gives him +12 shots to his orbital
@@hechy3782 lol Bugged?!
Great video and advice! I just wanted to add a few comments.
1. Additional stacks of the defensive microbots can be obtained by killing your doppelganger from artifact of vengeance, this is how you unlock the item for your logbook
2. The Visions of Heresy lunar item gives him 12 orbital probe shots, similar to the huntress ballista glitch (Fixed in 1.0
)
3. For some reason the new equipment Gorag’s Opus does not work at all with the Captain (Fixed in 1.0
)
4. The hacking beacon only works on interactables that cost gold, so you can't hack lunar pods and 3d printers
Edit: 5. Only the first shot from orbital probe does 1500% damage, the second two do only 500% damage each (Fixed in 1.0, now does 1000% on all three attacks
)
Gorag's Opus does work if a party member uses it, Captain (and i've been told Mercenary as well, but haven't tried it yet) cannot activate it, which is super lame.
So that's how you get the microbots into the logbook.
I just tested, Gorag's Opus works on Mercenary and presumably all characters other than Captain
Yeah I keep noticing only the first probe deals 1500%. Either Hopoo needs to fix the description, or fix the numbers so that it does what the description says.
2, 3 & 5 are confirmed bugs and will be fixed.
1 & 4, I forgot to cover, so thank you :)
8:41 He forgot to study for his sign language test so he just practiced during the game.
It would be badass if he got some alternate abilities when he's in the Hidden Realms for when he can't use the usuals.
Maybe a movement ability or self buff in place of the orbital strike and like a flurry attack with his passive in place of the special.
Dude, he could like put his shotgun into overcharge and it makes it into a machine gun or something dude!
@@simpcatcher131yes7 or like mul-t’s blaster except it shoots a beam for 10 seconds and total damage after using beam is 1500 - 5000
great idea for a mod...
I was leaning towards an alternative to the beacon system where instead of getting two beacon summons you could carry one as a backpack (with some tweaking to them) and it could be unlocked via beating void fields with him (as it currently is no beacons or orbital strikes). Then if you don’t have the backpack equipped and instead have the two drops equipped, then for void fields it auto swaps to that and will reequip the drop beacons afterwards
captain arrives at abyssal depths:
legendary chest: why do i hear boss music?
wait, u can hack that huge legendary chest?
@@zenks5883 all purchaseable items can be hacked (lunar chest not included)
He feels like a Leeroy Jenkins. Captain definitely said"Hold my beer" before droping.
Loving him. It's visceral gameplay.
He may need some buffs/tweaks (so I can't use my abilities without connection to the ship, but my orbital strikes can reach the abyssal depths???) but man. As someone who usually plays Merc he's my favorite non-mobile character. Likely because of the pimp coat.
I think of it this way: The ships cannons are strong enough to go through solid rock like bunker busters, but cant penetrate into alternate dimensions.
started watching this as I am in the middle of a captain run lol
Same.
Damn, I was kind of disappointed that we didn't get Paladin, but now that I've seen everything he can do I'm completely fine with this
the 1 dislike is from the salty wandering vagrant who got absolutely destroyed on stage one in 5 seconds
He is like "I used to eat chums like you by the minute, one shotting them... Now look at that, It's a pity."
One thing I found about the Captain is that the Shock Beacon is good for crowd you can't quite deal with at the moment. It constantly lets out shocks at a rate that makes it effectively stun-locks enemies as long as they are in the area. This also helps if you can lead enemies INTO the beacon, they can't escape.
Captain should be able to rocket jump with his shotgun imo
It’s just a shotgun, not the Force-A-Nature.
Perhaps an alternate ability if he ever gets one...?
Yeah I could see a pulse shot gun primary similar to REX utility.
That would be awesome! His shotgun has almost the same amount of oomph as Loader’s utility so I can see that working
Yeah maybe if he fully charges it then it pushes him back a bit
The microbots can also destroy the pillars created by the final boss on his third phase
I love the captain, and feel like I have a new appreciation for playing Risk of Rain 2, given the effectiveness of scooping up emergency drones and healing drones with the microbots.
He's SO Fun to play with artifact of glass just from how much work the microbots put in alone, let alone how hard the orbital actions kick ass. Also, with the reduced health, I'm less likely to go into void fields and feel sad.
Damn, literally a free Abyssal depths red item right away
PRetty sure there cant be a roof over the item, because it still has to drop
AlgaeEater09 nope it actually still works i tried it yesterday
@@AlgaeEater09 nah
@@AlgaeEater09 it works everywhere. only when it's locked in other realm it doesnt work
I'd say overall healing and emergency drones on captain are jolly good.
Heals AND projectile deleting is amazing. I don't like the fact that drones dont really work after more than a few stages, but the Captain makes it work.
I have to disagree with the shocking beacon. In a run where you’re melting everything yeah it does nothing, but if it’s a struggling run you can place it in a choke point and completely neutralize all ground enemies coming that way... which lets you deal with his arch nemesis the lesser wisp
If your run is struggling you might as well just restart it
There is not many people that can be comedic and provide essential info at the same time, but this guy is one of those people, keep up the great work!
Dude I haven't checked this channel in months. If Woolie is still playing this game I can't imagine how good he has gotten.
FUN FACT: The doppleganger artifact is another way where you can potentially get microbots! They can drop as an item for you to pick up :)
another fun fact: you can get multiple orbital strikes based on how many visions of heresy you have in a single use (1 VoH = 12 orbital strikes and goes on) and is definitely a bug so it will be fixed soon
just drizzle command to get captain mr streamer
I got him on Monsoon because I'm a real gamer
It was a joke, jesus
@@janesmith1840yeah but... you gotta use the captain's sattelite to find out who asked.
DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN
@@FPSRayn OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
But that’s not fun
Been waiting for this video.
Just found this channel. This dude rocks! Thanks Woolie
Early enough to say I love your content, pure quality.
The shotgun combined with the new boss item from the imo overlord (bleed on crit) is amazing because when captain gets a crit, all his projectiles and not just some of them will be crits, means you can stack pretty insane numbers of bleed on enemies with just little crit chance.
Great video as always, really helpful
Hey dude - Been playing Ror/Ror2 since release off and on - really was waiting for 1.0 and have recently stumbled on your channel. REALLY liking the content, dude. I appreciate all the knowledge you drop throughout videos - it really is helpful.
Keep up the awesome work!!!!
I haven't unlocked the hacking beacon yet, but just his first 3 skills + red item feel like only a fifth of a step down from a full character. I love him, and have the headcanon that he adopts Acrid, Rex, and MUL-T after the events of the game.
I think the shock beacon works pretty well with the healing beacon to create a space where you can heal and fight the boss safely as the shocking beacon stops all the smaller enemies from getting close. That works incredibly well when combined with an engineer and his shield and turrets
I really can't wait for this update to arrive to console, i've been playing monsoon lately and having a lot of fun (3 masteries BOIII), i wanted to try Mul-T but he felt... well... you know.
The captain looks like a ton of fun regardless of his not so fun (lose half your kit un certain areas) problems, can't wait to blast some enemies in the face!
I’ve been playin him since the update and I gotta say he’s definitely my favorite survivor
I like the character in general, I just wish we had a way to auto-fire with him so I don't destroy my hand/mouse by trying to fire shots.
Well you don’t play people like artificer or engineer huh? That’s a mechanic of the game honestly. He’d be much too strong if he had an auto fire weapon.
@@Van.Elison So, aside from the obvious baiting and shaming for people playing certain characters because they enjoy them...
Engineer auto-fires when fully charged. As does the Artificer. The Captain is the only character you can hold the charge in for an infinite amount of time. You can't hold the mouse down and eventually have it fire. And with the captain, the way to do the most damage is to repeatedly hit your mouse button, which can cause damage when you get to certain attack speed levels. Have it charge up and then fire, or make it so you can adjust it, idk but as it is the optimal gameplay is not good for either the mouse or the player.
What's your problem?
@@Van.Elison Have you ever played with +attack speed? Maximizing high attack speed with Captain's M1 is incredibly click heavy. Artificer's M1 is limited by cooldowns+charges, and Engineer's has a lengthy charge time to get to full power.
@@Van.Elison Uhm... if he auto-fired at the same rate he click fires now... he'd be OP? Doesn't that mean he is OP now? Auto-Fire doesn't mean speed up his fire rate. It literally just means you don't have to click every second.
The Engineer is charging his attack to gain power, and some of Artificer... unlike Captain who does it so they can hit someone far away reducing their effectiveness close range and due to being a charge his shots come out slightly slower as it is based not on pressing but releasing.
“Yeah, nice utility, Captain.”
*Diablo Strike: ...*
Used the captains ult spell (2 healing stations ) together with a friend who played engineer stacking N'kuhana's Opinion and also used 2Rejuvenation Rack turned out quite fun if you consider standing right where you spawn and killing everything fun
cant wait for a new item tier list bruh . You da best
2 healing beacons in the same spot makes tp fights super easy, especially in early game
The shattering justice legendary item is very good with this character. He can shatter armor of enemies in 1 shot (depending on the range)
1:03
The Pog face Mr.Streamer pulls really shows off the power of the Passive
I just got back into the game after a long time away and the captain has to be my favorite to play
woolie, you are to risk of rain what Mogamu was to warframe.
and i thank you for your service in teaching us how the world all fits together.
Hack chest also can be used on gold shrines btw
Tried my first monsoon run with captain... and won against the boss. Much thanks to the things I picked up from your videos 👍
Oh man captain looks so fun!!
My friend and I were playing with the Captain with the artifact turned on so that you pick your items. My friend found out that if you get a Vision of Heresy it will make your Orbital Probe have 12 shots instead of 3. So he started up picking up every lunar pod, and ended up with over 70 shots of Orbital Probe on a single use.
have you tried the interaction with visions of heresy and his "utility"? starcraft levels of ship bombardment
w0wid10t yea it was on stream and he got 24 orbital strikes
how do they work together?
@@firewaffles8208 you get 12 shots of your utility
@@uzumakiigor how so? isnt vision of heresy is the Primary replacer item?
Drawback its a glitch, a glorious glitch
captain is so nice dude, the monsoon obliterateration run I did yesterday was a blast
Big fan woolie!
If his secondary wasn't just to facilitate his utility I could see disabling half of his kit for lore but since taser really doesn't hold any weight on it's own you're just stuck with his primary fire.
Also how the heck can we summon support drones in pocket dimensions but not his killstreaks? They come from the same place.
I've found that by getting the preon on stage 3 and using the ressuply beacon you can almost always cheese the final boss on the last phase, which is hella nice for some free wins
Knew you'd be on getting this video out today
Your RoR content is superb. Subed
Oh, and there's currently a little trick with beacons:
1. Get backup mag. If you go to the beacon call-in mode you will see a "1" above your M2 beacon.
2. When in beacon call-in mode, pick up a bandolier ammo pack
3. You now have two M2 beacons.
4. You can get as many extra M2 beacons as you have backup mags.
Trick will not work if you place your last M2 beacon, so don't expend it. I'm sure I don't have to explain to the synergy between equipment beacon, kill dolls spawning bandolier, squids, and firecracker.
Visions of Heresy is an arguably good item for Captain aswell:
When you use your utility it replaces your normal attack to enable you to select targets, Visions of Heresy gives 12 charges to your normal attack, Suddenly you have 12 shots of your utility.
@@24KC yup
Been enjoying the Captain a ton so far. I like running the healing and equipment recharge beacons, since I almost exclusively play command/sacrifice. He scales fairly well like the rest, even without a mobility option. I like the touch of his kit being nullified in other dimensions, as it makes logical sense.
He makes for a great support alongside engi
A fun interaction with Orbital Probe is with Visions of Heresy is that the number of shots will actually go from 3 to however many shots you have from Visions, so with 1 you get 12 shots, 2 you get 24, all doing the 1500% damage PoG
DO NOT SCRAP THE MICROBOT, YOU DON'T GET IT BACK.
Captain is hands down one of the most fun characters theyve added to the game. Ive been enjoying the hell out of him
Very, very fun to play Captain.
I love the Captain, and I didn't expect to. I usually don't love spam-click characters that I can't just hold down the button to spray and pray but they did a really good job with this one. He's quickly becoming my new main.
Also while he greatly prefers gettin Abyssal Depths because of his hacking beacon getting Siren's Call isn't even that bad since with his ridiculous base DPS and ability to completely negate the ground pound ability of the Alloy you can very quickly kill it even with mediocre items.
I love the captain for his primary alone, a shotgun that does big damage, what's not to love? I saw the complaint on the Reddit post from your last video about spam clicking but that personally is not an issue for me. The orbital probe is also great.
With that out of the way, the rest of his kit is lackluster. You basically forget his M2 and beacons exist late game (I haven't been able to unlock the hacking probe cause rng fucks me, but while it's powerful it's still not very interesting game-play wise edit: I've unlocked it now but haven't used it in a run). Although you could argue this is a "problem" most survivors have in general since items eventually take over for pretty much everything.
I was hoping we'd be getting a survivor with actual substantial support abilities, while many (me included) mainly play solo it'd certainly encourage co-op play more if a character could benefit more from having other players around. His beacons don't really scale at all, I'm not sure which stat to attach it to but it'd be nice if they got a range increase from something at least. If you are playing co-op, an engineer turret with fungus is just an infinity better healing beacon because it does scale *and* isn't once or twice per stage. Shock beacon can lockdown an area pretty well but that area is too small. Resupply beacon I'd personally never use because it's not that important to have a limited refill for my equipment item most of the time. and again I haven't been able to use his hack beacon but it sounds useful yet boring.
You can always go Command and say "Fuck you RNG"
@@IryaIdiart You need to buy one of those big drones from rally point delta to unlock the hacking beacon. Command won't help that.
Dude... these are exactly my thoughts and opinions
Really agree with ur views.
While the hacking beacon can make legendary chest free, it takes a minute or two to unlock it becuz its much more expensive. Pass the first loop u start to earn a lot more money up to the point u can unlock any chest anytime u look at it.
And really, shock beacons and heal becons doesnt scale well into the late game and since its only one charge and small aoe, even random team mates in multi player rooms wouldn't bother making use of them, so im left with hacking and resupply beacon that mostly benefits myself only
The value beacons offer gets lower the longer the run goes...
Really the only defining strength of captain is his shotgun
One can easily think captain is op because of the damage he pumps out with the shotgun, then proceeds to overlook the fact the rest of his kit is actually just somewhat on par with or weaker than other survivors in the grand scheme of things. This makes captain balanced
@@hotpenguin607 you forgot about his _"utility"_
I kind of like how you can’t use utility/ultimate on some stages. It adds to the whole “risk” vs reward theme. Also it just wouldn’t make sense to be able to use those abilities without the orbiter (as that is literally where the attacks come from).
No, heavily disagree. It’s a stupid, useless mechanic. “Lore” and logic shouldn’t matter in a video game, especially one as unrealistic as this one. Like, what’s next? Giving Commando limited ammo because he shoots bullets - and we need to explain why he has infinite bullets? Or how about Engineer needing an excuse to use his turrets, because where do _those_ come from, hm? It’s a totally ridiculous decision that needs to be scrapped. Realism be damned, nobody gives a shit about “where they come from”, we want to have fun in a video game, not lose half our fucking kit because “DuRr iTs NoT rEaLiStiC cUZ hEs NOt iN ConTaCT wiTH His ShiP”... ridiculous.
What is the reward to not being able to use an ability? That mechanic simply reduces fun and makes people be hesitant to visit secret stages as captain due to the extreme handicap it raises to him.
@@bugjams YES YES YES YES. Dude that's 100% right, i've been arguing with a friend about this, and it's baffling that he thinks it's good as it is.
Aiden, I agree. Although the reason for why he can't access it through other dimensions is pretty lame, it makes sense. Like, we are on a planet that is defying any and all of our logic. But where is the ship? IN SPACE! The ship is limited by the laws of our universe, but the Captain is on the logic destroying planet. The ship may just experience an hour or two, but on the planet can time move differently for even those who is on it. I think that the lore have explained a lot of things that we can use to explain the planet and it's laws of chaos.
i just got captain and holy crap i’m having a blast
Thank you, Mr. Streamer, Very cool!
What's everyone's thoughts on captain losing his orbital beacon and bombardment in hidden realms? Feel like there should at least be alternate abilities to use in those locations instead of just straight up losing abilities
agreed, like maybe give him a double jump with utliity in the form of a downwards shotgun blast.
would help with the traversing of the map
Right? Also, teleporters are a thing. Why not just transdimensionally teleport the lasers?
I've never played this game in my life, but it was recommended, here i am...
Get this game it is a fun game and on sale for xbox for only 12 dollars (included tax with the price) although console has to wait until fall for the captain. All other colsoles or pc it us 30 dollars still a great game for 30 dollars
If you didn’t get it by now you should try it out. Really fun
kill the final boss with the engineer on easy mode to unlock the captain easily
i had a monsoon game that i ran as captain where i went so long it crashed my computer. i mainly used crit based items and attack speed items. it's literally so insane how strong he is
I honestly think the chemist sounded like an awesome character idea, mixing potions to get different abilities etc.
Some of the things I love about this guy are:
1.) His shotgun can pretty consistently one-shot elite wisps on stage 1
2.) He has a 100-0 true combo against golems on stage 1 (taser, triple airstrike, and sometimes a shotgun blast or two)
3.) Free Legendary Chests, baby
4.) IMO best primary skill in the game
5.) His passive is nuts, as is the stun duration on his taser
Epicmonk117 I agree he’s also a ton of fun. New main.
@@burningpottedplants1500 I've actually played nothing but Cap since I got him
“And just to put some icing on the death cake”
pretty neat video.
it should be noted, as i had this tested during one of my runs, that the orbital strike is based off of the number of your attacks of your basic attack, minimum being 3, BUT this can be changed and can scale by 'Visions of Heresy', a lunar item that replaces your basic attack with stacks of rechargeable projectiles with the starting stack being 12, so as long as its recharged to max stacks the orbital strike can fire literally 12 shots of orbital strikes because of visions, this also means it scales, a second visions will grant you 24 shots and so on, pretty niche compared to most builds but honestly purely fun
on a run i did yesterday i managed to get 10 visions stacked on captain, it was glorious
now i'm wondering how broken hacking would be in mods that increase the amount of "players" there are, while still playing solo. loot would be so clustered together that one beacon could easily net you a big score.
syringes + bleed, such an easy life when you can stack 100-300 bleeds so fast O_o
Though the shocking beacon isn't great at killing stuff, I find its good for setting up orbital strikes, also if placed correctly it can stop smaller enemies from overwhelming you
I find that the stun beacons are useful in the teleporter events, use both of them at the same time near each other and they perma stun most enemies in the teleporter radius
I love going Hardlight Afterburner with captain to obliterate everything with my air strikes.
You should try stacking visions of Heresy, with 5 you can spam click m1 to drop 60 air strikes to nuke anything.
Be warned your cool down does increase with every stack of heresy you pick up
I was just watching one of ur videos lol
nice, u were first
Ivar2028 I guess I’m just that epic 😎
One of my favorite legendary items to use with the captain is the black hole cube. I love dealing with large crowds of enemies by pulling them into a single point by using a black hole and then summoning 3 air strikes on that exact location. You can also use the Frenzy legendary to use your shotgun like an AR!
Tri tip daggers are amazing with this guy.
If you use the Back-up do those temporary drones get the microbots? Or just purchased drones?
They get the Microbots and YES it’s as good as it sounds. You can just negate beetle queens even more, and elder lumerians become useless outside of melee range.
arrowblade elder lemurian? Useless? Who would’ve thought there would come a day where you say those things in the same sentence.
Raichoo lesser wisps are still terrifying tho
Even better, you can give the backup to an equipment drone it it spawns them with microbots, all while having a microbot itself
SnowDropZero with the 5head plays
I only unlocked the captain to play with my friends and only say "I Am The Captain"
So funny, peak of comedy
Nilly00 lmao
I tried doing double shocking beacons for a few runs...and actually kind of loved it. The ability to trap all the ground enemies in a TP event simply by running circles around both beacons is extremely fun and then BOOM you can blow them all up in one orbital strike. Makes a horde of elite elder lemurians a cakewalk.
This is a searing hot take, and I love it! Rarely do I hear such a novel strategy.
Captain has been a real blast to play. He's definitely my favourite survivor to play as. He's more straight forward and I love his shotgun. It can get pretty nutty.
"what do you think of the captain? A bit clunky or too op?"
LETS JUST SAY that using him has been the first and ONLY character that I have his Alt skin for.
He made it SO MUCH easier to get to the end on monsoon because i had 1 healing drop and 1 hacker bot
And hes the only one i have made it with. Ive gotten SO CLOSE with the others and SO MANY TIMES with my girl Artificer but none yet
(I will only do it with artifacts off)
Actually found the Artificer the HARDEST one to get the skin on. That was before the Sky Meadows/Artifcacts update and 1.0 which imo have significantly increased the overall difficulty. Good luck with the rest of them. The first one I did it with was the Engineer, I was so pleased until I realised they hadn't even released an unlockable skin for him at that point...
I got the engineer and huntress skins, who are kinda my mains I guess. I keep trying with commando but haven’t been able to get it yet. I don’t think I have honestly tried to do it for anyone else yet.
I got commando, huntress, mercenary, and loader. I’m on console so I’m still waiting for the 1.0 update but for now I’m currently working on artificer
He feels a bit op. Especially since he counters the whole Vagrant attack-set and his heal is so strong that you could easily stand still for the 5 seconds the early bosses will take him
His utility is incredibly hard to hit without stunning or slowing. his special scales terribly, and his 2ndary isn't exactly great, due to effectively being single target "stun" that can be canceled, only really being useful for beetle guards and elder lemurians to make sure they get hit by utility, and his primary starts out with a fairly slow attack speed, which, while being able to 1 shot small things and most lesser wisp elites(provided there's a wall), can be a hindrance when being swarmed. Despite this, it is one of the better primary attacks, to carry the fact that he not only loses his utility and special on certain stages, but his 2ndary is fairly garbage. Being good on the early stages doesn't necessarily make someone broken. Also, no mobility on him in general, he needs to kill things before they can kill him until he gets items.
This character is actually weak af in comparison to others.. Scaling is terrible, and no utility at all.
I mean...they a r e the captain
I was extremely underwhelmed by the Captain at first... and then I unlocked the free item pod and picked up a few tri-tip daggers. The captain scales very very well into the late game with a proc game capable of competing with Mul-T. Also if anyone is having trouble landing the orbital cannon shots, just fire it at your feet while running away and all the enemies following you will get annihilated by it. Really good for dealing with Lesser Imps, Crabs etc etc
shock beacon seems to be useful for stunning large waves of monsters when you're feeling overwhelmed by the number of monsters on a stage. it kinda helps with a lot of the hordes of ground monsters when you use sacrifice+swarms artifacts. this in mind, using the two artifacts is pretty fun since you can easily rack up enough gold to just continuously buy out bots for a memey anti-projectile run.
can the, hacking beacon reach the red chest thats on the hell levels when it's underground?

The first time i picked him up was more like : WTF AM I DOING?! WHY DOES IT DO THIS??? OHHHHH!!!! And this? ... OHHHH!!! haha. Very fun character. I didn't know about attack speed increasing his nano bot. As always, thank you for your videos! :)
my friend brought me the game for my birthday and im in love with captain
I just thought about this. Could you get Captain's beacons to land on the buttons in Abandoned Aqueduct? The ones you use to open the gate to fight the two elite Elder Lemurians.
Unfortunately no.
No but they're adding this feature in the next update.
