This Build Hit 50+ Million Damage in Halls Of Torment

[@Estmaraver]

Man, this game is a gem. Is there any word on when the next update will drop? The craving for new content is real.

[@plushysheep]

Expected in August according to the dev diary that dropped on Steam today so either late August or early September would be my guess

[@Nemesis0405]

According to a news post on steam a new beta is around the corner (likely still in July). It'll feature a new map as well as new mechanics revolving around ice as an element. In a later beta cycle it will also contain a new character as well as rebalancing of existing content. Sounds very promising so far.

[@Estmaraver]

@@plushysheep Thanks a lot, just read the Dev post and guess I'll have to grit my teeth and wait. Got all the achievements and I only got a handful of items to buy from the wellkeeper but I figured "I'll just get them anyway when the new patch drops".

[@abizarreyoutuber6317]

New public beta on july 31st

[@Estmaraver]

@@abizarreyoutuber6317 Best news today by a mile. I'm in junkie mode over this game.

[@mariuszel759]

Crazy how muuch fun ive had during 50 hours that took me to get 100% of achievements! Will be back when the new patch drops.

[@Hitsandruns]

i've been doubling the multihit traits and the archer projectile trait for great success with transfixion ring blades and dragon's breath. Dragon's breath gives you access to the aoe and range traits. Transfixion doesn't reach the corners without extra range. Arcane splinters only gives you access to duration which is useless for transfixion and ring blades.

[@vivivi7162]

Hi Dex, if you want to stack electrify damage, Cleric with the "Thunder crown" is the best choice for you. I could easily deal 95+ million damage while playing casually( I didn't go to get the top ticket and the bottom ticket). Remember to use the "Reverberant Tinkture" potions on "Wide Area" (50% Range and 50% Cone Width). I think you can hit 200+ million damage if u play seriously.

[@vivivi7162]

My build was "Kugelblitz + Transfixion" cleric build

[@brianbittner9088]

Subscribed. Been loving this game so much almost got all achievements and learned a lot from your focused yet hilarious vids. You sure like balls!

[@LetsGenocide]

You for sure want a weapon to appy de-buffs since it's a damage multiplier for both hits and dots. Kugelblitz seems to do massive work so, may be go full AOE size with radiant aura + kugerblitz + transfiction? Kugelblitz to do the damage and the other two to apply fragile/affliction? Good luck on the future runs

[@thenonexistinghero]

Radiant aura sucks though. Might as well go needles or something.

[@MsVilecat]

​@@thenonexistingheroAura isn't so much for damage, it's for debuffing every enemy around you, so the other weapons melt them down. The question now is how to maximize the upgrades to dish out the most damage. Would you end up spending too many lv ups on area size, or would making a build that gets you lightning affinity instead be better, for example.

[@thenonexistinghero]

@@MsVilecat Transfixion already debuffs though while dishing out a ton of damage at the same time. Transfixion, Needles and Kugelblitz is probably the top dps combination.

[@ElenyFO]

As always, nice vidéo ! You could try a burning build for this cause the burning fully applies since they don't die

[@42Chrome]

You forgot the first upgrade you got which was extra projectile on ringblades., my go too for high damage is warlock with meteor dragon breath and "garlic" use the fire ring and crown that gives damage for burning targets. double up the sacrifice hp for damage all three times.

[@jaeusa160]

I think your decisions were solid. And I hate to say it but maybe Golem over the Ring Blades. >_< The ghost wall is perfect for him to just keep slapping. I think Splinters+Kugel is the perfect choice for the 2 main weapons to blanket the screen. Transfixion is amazing but it doesn't really have the "blankets the screen with damage against unlimited targets", and it also has a Slow upgrade you'd want to avoid.

[@perfectodimaculanga1201]

I wanna share this, maybe it'll appear in one of your videos. This isn't OP but the goal is to have the most epilepsy-inducing experience ever. - Pick Cleric or Exterminator - Equip Ring of Fire, Ring of Thunder, Sparking Tips and Thunder Crown - Hunter's Garb, Runner Shoes and Jade Amulet - Maximize Range, Attack Speed, Cone Area/Angle - Pick some Strength, Critical Hit Chance, Fire and Lightning Affinity early on - Pick one Physical damage ability (Ring Blades, Golem or Astronomer's Orbs), projectile upgrades - Pick Arcane Splinters, maximize Attack Speed and Splinter, get both upgrades - Pick Meteor Strike, maximize or double Attack Speed and Explosion Area, get projectile upgrades When you hit a burning enemy with physical, you get a chance to burn the surrounding ones. If you hit an electrified enemy with magic damage, you get chain lightning. Imagine that with fully upgraded Arcane Splinters!

[@melt7322]

hey nice to see you again! we were competing for world records in the early stages of vampire survivors. my current damage record is 590 million, which is close to the technical possibilities of the current patch.

[@johnnyfresh5798]

what skills are you doing that with ? ringbaldes, trans, and ? maybe i sohould go the holy aura too ? xD dunno i want to do more.

[@melt7322]

@@johnnyfresh5798 Kugelblitz actually, ring blades are just for cleanup.

[@tnx301]

Probably best weapons to use for this objective are those with very high piercing, so they can hit a lot of enemies. Also, because I keep noticing it: ...should have GONE... or ...could have GONE - but NEVER should / could have WENT. Each time I hear this, it feels like my former English teacher hitting me on the head - or at least look very disapprovingly at me :)

[@peterhoffmann2231]

i really hope you are german

[@korpse6rinder]

If you go for both then you will need movement speed. That makes the orbs a good pick for one of them

[@matt5742]

Can you get the invulnerability and walk through the guards to the other side?

[@ziranei5852]

If you go for dragons breath with knock back, you can slowly open up that ghost wall so you can go behind them.

[@jerlim8648]

You can tank it. High hp, high def high movement spd.

[@duffmanjon]

Transfixion backwards cold slow shots work as well.

[@Xanshi]

You can also do it Transfixion with the slow upgrade

[@kobisjeruk]

You can run past them. They do 100 base dmg per tick (get reduced with block/+def) but running past them does something like 200-400. Its better to stay behind them rather than in front of them.

[@user-yv6xw7ns3o]

You can also run past them with the invulnerability+speed pickup.

[@kinderbueno223]

that would be better on mace guy? since he have doubled the crit damage?

[@talukita1915]

Go Cleric + Electric ring + Kugel and Transfixion Then maybe thunder crown and stack as much electrify on ghost enemies as possible and you can get like 2-300m+ total damage

[@certainlynotmalo1.0.0]

Don't they spawn down the Bridge too? If they do, you could get the ticket from there pretty soon.

[@konzori]

Kugelblits with extra electrify, flamewall with knockback and Ruby Circlet with a 60% multiplier so they stack and that needle weapon with echoingband ring, try that one and you might even kill a few of the guards :D.

[@tomthecasual5337]

could you try a gatling needle build?

[@THECODgOd1790]

I just hit 88.9million damage on this map with archer! I can give you details so you can tweak some things and maybe hit over 100m! My bow had over 40k dps and my ring blades had 119k dps at the end screen. The abilities (in order) that I went for were #1 meteor #2 Phantom needles #3. Ring blades For meteor I did the thing that you did prior with archer, maxing out projectiles. I used this as my main clearing ability to farm xp quickly Phantom needles were not the optimal choice for 2nd pick (ring blades on 2nd pick could have gotten me to a 100m alone tbh since it'll have more uptime) I did both upgrades for all 3 abilities as soon as I could and went for crit damage/chance on most upgrades, and attack speed everywhere else, and if neither were available I took just straight damage ups. The strategy I had was similar to yours but I spent more time leveling up before approaching the ghosts

[@johnnyfresh5798]

i would like a video with highest damage possible. just yesterday i found out that you can kill the ghost wall in level 3 but my highest overall damage for now is at 132 million since i do all damage with a ring and 2 skills i am a little lost for words to what i can do to improve that.

[@arthena2130]

When I did kugelblitz with shockwave focus, I reached 40k dps and 24k lightning dps. So kugel is the best to focus on.

[@Tom-Plays]

ive had the echoing band hit 100k + dps on the swordsman with max crit chance/dmg, area/cone, ring blades, transfixation and needles. i think archer could go higher maybe.

[@martinschulein6992]

I did a run yesterday with kugelblitz and at the end of the run I was close to the guards. I focused on electrify chance and ended up with almost 300k dps and few hundred million damage just for kugelblitz or rather the electrify from it

[@BlackBeastForSale]

Well done getting so close to 100, should make it in no time now. Comment for algo

[@CrunchyF123]

ad breaks are out of control ! ... 6 ad breaks in 25min !

[@arjaygunting2861]

Hey Dex, im having a hard time completing the mission to inflict 20 electrify debuff on an enemy. how did you finish that?

[@spsawyer22]

I played as a sorcerer and just took electrify chance as weapon upgrade...need to survive around 15 minutes or so and you should be golden

[@MerphyWatchLinkClick]

stack attack speed and electrify chance, hope for the best i think you can also try the exterminator with the lightning ring for the extreme attack speed they get to really try and stack it up since i remember seeing 2k+ ticks but i personally did it the first time by taking the electrify chance on the weapon proficiency tab of the sorceress every time as well as any attack speed bonuses also from some testing im relatively sure the sorceress can't or very rarely hits the same target multiple times with the main weapon so the additional strikes unfortunately don't help all that much do hope this helps, and good luck with the achievement

[@blandiblue]

Kugel, ring of electricity, sorcerer and lightning strike on the bridge map. Multistrike with potions, + electrify with weapon mastery or pose, setting up kugel for first level and do not upgrade till 2 options appear together memoir one and click the other. Do not pick another skill until at least lvl 3 kugel. if lightning strike appears pick it if not upgrade kugel. Wait for lvl 6 kugel and do the same. On the boss it should happen on its own. This is overkilling that achievement, with bad luck still should be able to get it.

[@Latezen]

go for only electrify stuff and third map, on the dragon/lizard whatever boss you can get it done easily. kugelblitz + lightning strike only.

[@arjaygunting2861]

thanks for the suggestion guys. will try again today. i can't seem to finish it even though i already tried stacking electrify chance on everything. but will try your suggestions too

[@Piratederp]

There are indeed normally 9 tickets on that map, enough to fully upgrade 3 abilities. I've done several runs where I got 3 abilities maxed.

[@thelazt16]

After the potions upgrade, I think they reduced the boss spawn. AFAIK before that, spawn tickets 3, halbert guy 2 (1st boss and in mid game), crossbow guy 1, wyvern 1, and crossbow guy + wyvern 2.

[@Piratederp]

@@thelazt16 I did like 3 runs yesterday where I got all 9 tickets.

[@Odadian]

Think the electric balls would have been better for dmg since they stack more static instead of blades

[@bdhdr4226]

I just did a three weapon run and hade enough tickets to max 2 of them with one upgrade for the 3rd so what happened seems correct with you skipping the lower ticket. Also I had the slowing transfixion but it didn't slow the ghosts since I was always facing them trying to do damage and the slowing ones fire backwards.

[@DexTag]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnLQipeQarGkpKM The thing is we used to be able to max out weapons, I am not sure if that got changed or if it's RNG based on certain boss spawns or what happened.

[@meric469]

Hey Dex, huge fan from Turkey ❤ 👍👍

[@Michael-Ink]

Halls of torment is still nice even though it is really early in development

[@DexTag]

Yea, I've said that before and my rating on the scale of games and how well it's done is a 5/10, but this upset a lot of people. I think my evaluation of things as a channel heavily focused on these games is just highly different from people that played 2-3 of them, but it also depends if you put the scale according to all game in existence and the worst is a 0 (because then this game is easily a 7-8/10), or if you look at what it has in comparison to what is possible, then it's a 5/10. But there is a huge amount of potential as we have seen with the recent potion release, so I am eager to see future updates.

[@spsawyer22]

Yeah the fact it's in early release AND is getting the Asmon boost really makes me hopeful for the games future. Don't think 6/10 is a horrible rating (mine would be 8.5/10 due to value for money)

[@Michael-Ink]

@@DexTag Yea, I am also eager to see what they will do with the game in the future. I would also like to see further upgrades and longer runs. Like a challenge run for experienced players that are eager to wait for an update, making the game more of a replayable factor as well because of the difficulty ceiling. Secret achievements and all of that would be really nice to see in a game like this. We will see what they will do. I am already looking forward to see what they are going to do with the next Major update.

[@Alex84575]

The 38M on the golem looks more impressive now.

[@aurorasun-qs1pg]

Get the amulet that increases your DMG by missing health

[@Monnisti]

Echoing band slaps way more than the crit ring in my opinion. Echoing band is my highest damage overall and highest dps while doing ghostwall runs. Sure the crit adds alot of damage but im talking insane amounts of damage here. Also memory+doubling the projectiles

[@tristinbulko6786]

true, that ring keeps up with my main weapon

[@sinch4044]

this guys voice is mesmerizing

[@brendygram]

IDK if you noticed but you did kill a few guards in the end, there's an indentation where they were

[@Neriehem]

Nope, it was caused by the knocnback from level ups - effectively squished guards' formation in that spot. If Dex had more luck with magnets, he might have made a pathway through them even with just level up knockback.

[@brendygram]

@@Neriehem ahh valid

[@galdanith]

You can have 3 fully upgraded weapons (ie- both weapon evolutions) on this map

[@DexTag]

The thing is there was no ticket left to do that, so I don't quite understand what happened. I was missing 1 ticket

[@galdanith]

@@DexTag I'm gonna re-watch rq and then try a run myself to confirm I suspect you probably did end up with all of the upgrades but forgot?

[@DexTag]

@@galdanith You can just skip to the end. The Ring Blades are differently colored when upgraded, one being teal-greenish and the other being pink-reddish. But in the video neither of them are there. And with 1 ticket still on stage that means 1 is missing

[@galdanith]

@@DexTag Yeah- I just did a run and have both upgrades for transfix, orbs, and dragon's breath

[@galdanith]

@@DexTag Maybe elite spawns are tied to character levels, and you needed to pick up the xp on the ground sooner? I paused my run and am lvl 95 at the same point you were 76

[@rekrn12345]

I remember originally people were trying to kill the walls. I don't think its possible but some people were saying they were.

[@kobisjeruk]

Unless the devs up the hp or change something it was possible. The first time I did it with warlock, focusing on the main weapon. Purely by accident because it was my first time on warlock and first time on the 3rd map.

[@rekrn12345]

@@kobisjeruk Doubt. They have tens if not hundreds of millions of HP. I have sat in front of that wall blasting them for thousands per second and never seen one die.

[@Magerquark]

I'm torn between early banishing being a wasted level up and increasing the chance of better upgrades on every single level up being worth early

[@DexTag]

It's not really wasted because you don't need the level ups for anything else really, since the moment you take something it's locked to appear again until roughly 10 levels later. Though in this case here where I want to get to a certain point on the map, there is definitely more value in picking up certain upgrades early on

It was at about 15% for a long time, a bit more or less. I was surprised too, that's a pretty good number.

[@DexTag]

The reminder gets people to subscribe. I average 1 sub every 10k views. With a reminder I average 7-12 people every 10k views. I don't do it because I enjoy it, it's just insanely effective. This video here is one of the worst performers view wise at 15.3k and got 127 subs. Gigachad Golem has 43.7k views and hit 69 subs. Thats almost 3x as many views for half the subs, and that's even good for how it usually is. For example the La Borra video, where Vampire Survivors is way more saturated, it has 21k views and 12 subs.

[@Hitsandruns]

i.imgur.com/si0OZ0a.png Just gonna drop this here. I managed to kill most of the ghosts, the constant slow from the blades let me stand still mostly. I think transfixion, ring blades, and kugelblitz is the most damaging combos to clear the ghosts.
