[@CoolGuy-yk9kd]

thats crazy and i never would have thought an intended unkillable boss would have a reward

[@teodorlb]

How is it intended to be unkillable if it has hp

[@thelostsoul9446]

@@teodorlb Most of the time, game devs don't bother coding an invincible enemy. It's more work than just straight-up coding it like a normal enemy and giving it an absurd amount of hp. In this game, weapons deal at most ~200 damage while the reaper had 650k hp PER LEVEL you have so they probably did not intend it to be killable in the first place, i'm pretty sure the reward you used to get before the revive update was never meant to be achieved, it was just the devs testing out stuff (in case you don't know, the reward for killing the reaper used to be "MissingNo", a character with randomised stats)

@@thelostsoul9446 Depending on code, -1 is often used as 'infinite' value

[@thelostsoul9446]

@@overloader7900 That's true, i'm not a dev after all lol. That still depends on the language used, right? Maybe they still had to code it in their code language

[@overloader7900]

@@thelostsoul9446 Not on language - just on code. Suppose lifetimes: They can't be negative, right? As such, -1 is a convinient value to use for things that shouldn't expire. So if you have a single handler for all expiring stuff, you can just put that in.

Dude it died right after you said “one of these has to die right?” The stars were aligned for that run⭐️🔮

[@umchoyka]

That chest you opened expecting to get an evolved weapon must have dropped from an elite that spawned before the 10min mark. The game checks if a chest can evolve a weapon at the moment the enemy that carries it is spawned, not when you kill it or when you pick it up.

[@kmjnhbgvfcdxs3247]

It checks when it's killed not when it spawns

[@Kineticboy2K1]

@Kurocon If a boss has spawned at 9:59 or earlier, it's chest cannot contain an evolution.

[@Kineticboy2K1]

@Kurocon At 10:00 is when things are able to evolve. It doesn't matter if you have evolveable weapons or not, the boss must have spawned at or after 10:00 in order for their chest to be eligible for evolution. If you kill a boss that spawned at 10:01, have no evolveable weapons, and left the chest alone until the very end, it still has the possibility of containing an evolution for any weapon you've obtained. If the boss spawned at 9:59 or earlier, their chest cannot contain an evolved weapon. This game checks a bunch of things when a monster is spawned, and for boss monsters, when they spawn is when their chest load out is finalized. There are two loadouts: "The chest can contain an evolution" or "the chest cannot contain an evolution." The 10 minute mark is the threshold for this change.

[@xenobis7534]

Maybe it assigned all the chests that were picked up at once a content, but the chest with the gold was just shown first, because they were picked up simultaneously, so the order of presentation was random?

[@Brocuzgodlocdunfamdogson]

There are exceptions but this is generally the case.

[@rileymoore7025]

Finally, a worthy opponent. Our battle will be LEGENDARY!

[@diggoran]

I've watched several runs of this game and this is the first time I realized the starting enemies in the library are not giant stone faces, but are actually like mud monsters with their arms above their heads

[@DexTag]

This can be a super painful fight. The old method took 7 hours, the new one 3, but who knows how much impact RNG had - but Red Death is worth it. Just really sad MissingNo is not a thing anymore:/ Congrats on the win!

If you ever wonder where are your jackpot chests, they're somewhere out there ruining someone's Reaper killing runs

[@Sebastian_Niedermeier]

In the .2.13a version, witch is supposed to drop between today and tomorrow the tome buff will apply instantly meaning, you won't have to worry about the order in witch you level up your Runetracer. This also means, that spellbinder and the tome will be applied to your lance in full, witch will throw of the freeze timing. Death is definitely still beatable, with this method. I just did it in the already released beta using both tome and spellcaster. I also got tiragisu, spinach and bones though, witch helped a lot.

You are a fantastic beast at this game! Thank you for all your help and info on this game. I am a despicably old man but I fell in love with this game from watching my grandsons play it and I finally just beat the library (easy for you but my fingers just don’t go very fast). (Also I have all the time in the world so it took literally hundreds of tries and several Aleve for my arthritic fingers). It is thanks to your content and hints. I made a little poster (with my ending level and accomplishments) for my grandsons to see so I could brag and hopefully make them be jealous. I only got to 98 level so I hope to maybe improve that but I am so happy that I actually beat a level on any game! I also managed to do it before my grandsons did it too. Thank you for your helpful and entertaining content and I wish you good health, happiness and all the best wishes to you and your families!

[@user-xg5qz4kb2b]

Means that the clock lancet won’t be on rhythm tho

[@jasonpatterson8091]

The time that the chest offered a money bag instead of a weapon transformation was because that chest was dropped before 10 minutes. Transformations can only happen after 10 minutes, and chests prior to that won't drop them even if you keep them until after.

[@pixelator5312]

red death's character description is definitely true, but referring to missingno, not death

[@PikaLuigi]

15:40 Probably a chest from a boss killed before minute 10. The game doesn't give you evolved weapons before minute 10, obviously, but I think it's intrinsic to the chest, not the timer

[@jordancambridge4106]

Also rune tracer does not bounce off objects but instead just randomly zips around for a few seconds before it vanishes to recharge before being deployed again after over 10 seconds.

Played this for the first time today. Death came and I had no idea what I was up against.

Took me over an hour. Unlocked on my first try, my first run in with him 😆 go luck!

[@tkhanh.]

15:40 I believe it's because the chest is from less than 10 minutes so it can't give an evolved weapon, I tried to save a chest once until the 10 minute mark but it didn't evolve

you dont have to worry about the order in which you upgrade anymore that was patched sometime ago. Also now with random card thing you can get 3x revives at the start that make this really easy now.

[@xKoNFuZioNx]

For all the people dying early: you NEED 100% to apply the correct power-ups in the main menu. Especially Amount, Cooldown Reduction, Speed, Duration as you need these to keep the Rune in place ALL the times. Otherwise you will die around 23-27 minutes and not make it to the Reaper. This is due to the 0.1-0.2 second gap between recasting your spell, if you have not equipped the power-ups mentioned above. You WILL take damage because there are so many enemies that they will push through, hence you need these power-ups.

[@anttheknee1372]
