[@adamharmon8188]

a very important spell that removes recharge time is chainsaw which has the amazing "magical property" of removing all previous cast delay generated by its spell group on top of the -.17 recharge

[@alexmark6580]

The 'brrrrrrr' wand catalyst pretty much.

[@cicik57]

but the best is the laser, especially with trigger. On basis of that you can make max speed spammer

[@sipofsunkist9016]

@@cicik57 put a laser with a lighting bolt and see how slow it shoots. Then replace the laser with a chainsaw. Thank me later (check your recharge time tho)

[@cicik57]

@@sipofsunkist9016 ir depends, chainsaw removes accumulated cast delay, so if you do not have it it wont help but a laser reduces recharge calldown

[@johanness3850]

@@cicik57 assuming you are referring to luminous drill, chainsaw also removes the same amount of recharge time as luminous drill, but for 9 less mana and total cast delay removal instead of just 0.58 sec

[@PuntiS]

I need more people with this level of didactics in youtube to teach me math and algorithm. The fact that these wand compositions are pretty much gamified programming tells me that this should be possible. TL;DR: Damn, you're just too good at explaining these things. Keep on rocking, m8.

[@ThylineTheGay]

"tells me that this should be possible." it is definitely possible, just most people suck at teaching lol (for example only explaining _what_ to do and not also _why_ to do and _how_ that works)

[@ThylineTheGay]

or gamifying it by being super condescending, that absolutely sucks

[@different_stuff]

I changed 3 schools and i saw how people study. I think you are just not interested in math and that's the only problem. The quality of teacher doesn't matter here.

[@b1nary_f1nary]

@@different_stuff Nah, everyone has experience in schools and everyone knows there are just tonnes of bad teachers.

[@different_stuff]

@@b1nary_f1nary Yeah, as a person who changed 3 schools i know how bad teachers can be as well. I just say that there might be another explanation. Sometimes students are just not selfaware.

[@JiYunNam]

Love that the guy is even sorry not getting into more details after 20 minutes of free top notch explaination

[@ishanj2021]

Noita just runs too deep. This game feels underrated for how great it is.

[@unbearifiedbear1885]

Its always the most basic looking games that build the most truly deep experiences.. Dwarf Fortress, Terraria, Undertale etc

[@nagybenedek6083]

Spell-wrapping with wands that cast multiple spells sounds like a good future topic! I love these explanation videos, I often just place the spells in a random order and sometimes insane things happen, but these videos help a ton with actually understanding what's going on.

[@MrAlexVelik]

I agree, still a little bit confused by multicast wands

[@aarepelaa1142]

@@MrAlexVelik im so confused on what the fuck do i do with a 24 multi cast wand lmao. Also 6 fucking seconds of recharge.

[@dampintellect]

@@aarepelaa1142 if it has 25 slots maybe you can wrap it and cast 48 spells all at once.

[@aarepelaa1142]

@@dampintellect well that's something i don't know, basically the thing that would have been nice to know but still the recharge is always way too high on multicast wands.

[@ffg7yt]

ahh employing suffer's general strategy i see :)

[@TrekStar11]

I come back to this video time and time again when Im trying to incorporate a new aspect of spell wrapping in my wand builds. Best Noita yt / streamer period.

[@DunkOrSlam]

Thanks dude =)

[@tabletbrothers3477]

Just watched a bunch of this guy's videos. I don't even play Noita, but the way he teaches is just so good. He's just way too talented at teaching.

[@marksilverman]

another excellent video. Please talk about wrapping with Wand Refresh on multi-cast wands.

[@shasper555]

Watching your videos and trying combos in the game feels like learning a new programming language 😆

[@notdeadalready]

I'd love to see the next video with multi cast wands - I'd also like to see one after regarding wrapping with the Greek spells! I had an amazing run with Gamma and didn't feel like I was using it properly. That run was all thanks to your previous videos, my main damage wand was an add trigger beast!

[@ggwithrow65]

This format is fantastic. Please continue your series of tutorial videos and don't be afraid of video length. This is extremely valuable.

[@codym3415]

A video on the mess that is divide by spells would be cool. They sound simple but have very weird and high level interactions with spells that could benefit from your explanation style

[@lyph1972]

Thank you so much for these explanation videos!!

[@druhu4590]

I would always just put a modifier on the end of a normal non-spellwrapped wand to get double the recarge reduction. this method saves a slot, thanks for the help.

[@DunkOrSlam]

This is a pretty good rule to follow. Just remember to not wrap whenever the cast delay is high because it will actually slow down the wand if you don’t have a way to remove the cast delay!

[@TorigodHamster]

Your voice has a great conversational tone for teaching, this is legitimately an excellent tutorial on a complex game mechanic. Loved it!

[@wesleysmith5275]

I've watched this video quite a few times now to really nail down all the different concepts you outlined. You're a really good teacher, thanks!

[@Nile09]

I knew about spell wrapping, but these videos are fantastic to reinforce knowledge and give you some new ideas for wands. Great video!

[@lukewilson1282]

Excellent video! I believe Noita’s strongest point is the mad-scientist type wand crafting, as the depth of things you can do with it is absolutely fascinating. Loving the content and look forward to more in the future!

[@kaustik185]

Just in time for my Friday run! These are really enlightening. Don't know if you'll do it at the end of this video yet, but never hold back on deeper info so the video will not get too long. I'd watch these an hour each. Praise the lord

[@KaceyTime]

over the last month a ton of noita wand mechanics have started finally properly clicking with me, checking out your guides has been great for the little bits i'd missed but i actually can't believe that modifiers can be in any order after a multi cast lmao i never would have thought to test that, and the wrapping potential is very cool, thank you.

[@xxcrono]

This video was extremely good. You are very good at breaking things down and teaching it. Amazing work, dude

[@SourSourSour]

This was clear to me! appreciate the vid. Learning that modifiers in a clump, regardless of how they're placed in the group effect the whole group was very useful

[@durpzillayt]

Best tutorial KZbinr, he builds up from basic concepts, explains every step, and shows how it acts, love the content

[@shortcircuit9388]

Love this channel, I had wanted noita for a while but you made me want to get it immediately, keep up the good work

[@afriendlybullet]

just getting back into noita recently and your videos have been helping a ton. I already sort of knew spell wrapping was a thing but never fully understood it (I'd always randomly throw spells together to try and get it to work lol)... this video is excellent! one thing that I really took from this video though is I honestly never considered looking at certain spells for their cast delay/recharge time benefits! certain spells I would write off as 'useless' are way more valuable to me now -- I used to look at the transmute spells as literally worthless but I've been throwing them on wands that need it any chance I get. Thank you for your videos :)

[@Steamdragon13]

Spell lab gave me a basic understanding but your explanation of modifiers both for wrapping & within multicast clumps helped me a ton!

[@LunarChicken]

Thank you so much for the explanation! This was massively helpful!

[@isar2475]

You explain things really well. It is no problem when you show more advanced wands, it even makes it more understandable. Thank you

[@TaBunnie]

I sorta learned spell wrapping from your Chainsaw Spell video thanks for going more in-depth in this one!

[@Cantarolar_C]

Thanks! Very much like your noita guidness series, your explanation is very clear.

[@Sabith01]

Thanks for all the great content! After watching this plus a bunch of other Noita basics videos I was able to beat the game for the first time after 12 hours logged in steam. Spell wrapping is definitely what gave me the win. My perks were meh, health wasn't that amazing but having a hard hitting machine gun of a wand made it possible(even if it had an absurd amount of kickback). But if I didn't know how to spell wrap I really doubt I would have made it anywhere near the end of the game. I almost had a win a couple hours before that with a wand that shot so fast/so many different shots that it lagged the game, but I thought teleportitis would be a helpful perk.... Made it to the end but worms had angered the gods earlier. Steve hit me, Teleportitis teleported me under the bridges outside the holy mountain and before I could tunnel out I fell into the lava and died... Noita'd so so so close to my first win. But was able to get the win a bunch of tries later because I had a much better understanding with how to build wands. Thanks :D

[@Roi985]

I learned so much from your videos, explained so good but still detailed

[@Manzana1C]

Welp... First time I knew everything in the video. Glad I got the basics well established. I would love a video about recursion, specifically speaking with Greek letters call other Greek letters. Also the interactions of Wand Refresh and how somehow it sometimes wraps on its own

[@TheGingusa]

wand refresh basically means anything you put after it doesn't apply to the wand. when a wand reaches a wand refresh it's like its running into a sign in the road that says start over. however one of the greek letters states "all modifiers in the current wand are applied" that includes modifiers that are after the wand refresh. every modifier in the wand is copied and applied in that single greek letter for only the mana cost of that letter.

[@andreasarapos6876]

Awesome content, you are so good at explaining things. Thanks for teaching me how to get good at my favorite game. Cheers!

[@mintiestleaf395]

This video blew my mind in the most understandable way

[@asappi3110]

[@badpiggiesfan6918]

this is such a great video!!!! im very new to this game and playing around with this mechanic has made the game so much more fun building wands was allready my favorite part, but now i spend more time in temples tinkering then in caves lol

[@lucasrondinele6943]

Bro, I am still dying at the mines a lot of times, just started playing today, I just LOVED to see this video, its soooo cool how strong you can make your wands, I think I will really like playing this game more :D

What a game changer! Thanks for this! You rock man keep up the great content.

[@MrAlexVelik]

Amazing explanation, thank you for your hard work!

[@evlogiy]

I didn't understand spell wrapping until you show it literally, placing spells and showing how exactly they wrap. Something just clicked inside my head, when you did that! Thank you. You are a good teacher.

[@bogmancaveguy1620]

Amazing as always! Thanks for the analisys

[@tranxn7971]

[@hanswoast7]

I wouldnt mind you reading the whole noita wiki to me. You are great at explaining :) Thanks a lot!

[@billiammenzies3550]

Nice tutorial man. Looking forward to the tutorial about spell-wrapping on wands with Multi-cast.

[@Soulsphere001]

While I was starting to understand that spell wrapping worked like that, I doubt I would have ever thought that one could make a spell fire as quickly as at 9:33. I avoid heavy spread when I see it, but perhaps I should now start experimenting with it. EDIT: I also had no clue that spell modifiers affect the entire line of spells up to the point of recharge. That is _extremely_ useful information. EDIT 2: This video and a few of your other videos allowed me to put together a powerful wand that does around 4500 to the statue total. Is that DPS? Anyway, I have the Concentrated Mana perk and the wand has eight spells: 1. Add Mana 2. Double Spell 3. Chainsaw 4. Chainsaw 5. Quadruple Scatter Spell 6. Triplicate Bolt 7. Triplicate Bolt 8. Bouncing Burst

[@bbbeware]

your videos are great and its not just because of the information, its because of you. you've got this comfy aura to you. also your voice was made for content creation. keep it up man

[@QuestionmarkCosmo]

This guy is so good at explaining how this game works I love it

[@HusseinAl-Dalawy]

Definitely a helpful quick video thanks a lot mate I thought I knew how it works but I wondered why sometimes it doesn't go the way I want it to now I know why :)

[@VincentNajger1]

THANKYOU! I finally understand now.....thankyou for such a simplified and understandable vid!

[@yazuak]

Hey Dunk. I've been trying to explore Noita myself and figure out some of the mysteries, and these educational videos really help increase my chances of getting a build capable of that. I'd like them to stay relatively spoiler-free if possible. I don't mind if you show off spells that need to be unlocked, but I'd rather not know exactly where to get them for now. Thanks, I appreciate you.

[@Nickgowans]

Thanks to these videos I am able to reliably make it to hiisi base and I'm able to build fairly decent midgame wands.

[@lsnb1106]

Dude this was great. I'm already somewhat familiar with wrapping but always get confused mid-run when doing anything more complicated than wrapping a single spell or two. Also didn't know spells inside a trigger didn't add to cast delay! Hope you make that advanced video on wrapping with multi-cast wands

[@crowman1795]

I'd love for you to get into the truly mind-boggling stuff

[@Sleksin]

This is relatively dense for a continuous take (I mean, I don't know if there's cuts around, was more listening than watching) video. Not excessive rambling and explains the concepts pretty well. Neat.

[@arthurmerkel1615]

Hey, thank you for reminding me of double mana wrapping, i will use that again more often! Nice video!

[@JHattsy]

I just picked up Noita the other day, played 8 hours of it and wanted to learn more about wands, went into this video thinking "Man this is gonna be too complicated and I'ma close it I bet" but actually really well explained concept, ty.

[@FreeRadicalX]

It took me 128 deaths, 19 days since first play, 59 hours of gameplay to get my first win today. Didn't even have to cheese! Your spell tutorials and stream replays helped a lot, TY

[@haroldbalzac6336]

Damn, I'm 440 deaths and still haven't won.

[@csaki01]

I finally understand how the dang thing reads the spell sequence. Also, I didn't realize those reductions of cast delay and recharge time, that helps a lot.

[@Ay-xq7mj]

I feel the least obvious part is fact you can do it with trigger spells. Helps with spark bolt stacking since you have normal spark bolts then spark bolt trigger at end. Some modifiers also can be used to spell wrap (Just placed last). Means half fires has the modifier. Not always helpful but niche purposes depending on rng.

[@thehinskey5560]

I really like your lessons and I'm looking forward to get to the advanced stuff on my way to my noita diploma

[@eagleschmeagle9247]

Wow, this was amazing. Thank you! :)

[@boeriucosmin4213]

thanks for the info. never knew about this mechanic, i just won my 1st 2 orb boss run( without much effort after experimenting with the wands )

[@62mag62]

Not sure if you covered it in another video but I would like to see you talk about chainsaw in terms if spell wrapping. Or maybe just in general. Read a guide about the mechanics of wrapping but I couldn't quite understand it. This video really helped me out.

[@nyuu9088]

such a helpful video thanks

[@alexware6803]

I've never noticed the spell icons wobbling like that before... and now I can't stop looking at it.

[@lonejohnwolf]

I had a double cast wand with luminous drill, add mana, and that slime bolt spell together in that order. And it fired too fast, even though it seemed like it would have some sort of cast delay thing going on. I thought the wand was wrapping the slime bolt with the luminous drill (which took off the cast delay entirely I think) making a combo into itself, but I just realized that it's the same cast of spells so the luminous drill's negative cast delay was being added to the other spells and making it work. Anyways I won with that wand (which i buffed up with critical damage and found concentrated spells RIGHT before the boss fight, and used a secondary wand to give the boss a personal gravity field) and it was at about exactly 30 hours of gameplay... Kinda freaked me out how I got my first win so early just because I understood the game pretty well and had happened to stumble upon an insane spell combo.

Super well explained

[@RabRabNZ]

Perfect video! I wish this game has a lil visual QoL for wand crafting .

[@SpiderKoloPL]

I was playing a while ago with passive spell - one which doesn't modify spells, but rather wand. Any form of Torch or a shield would be a good example for such passive spell. Turns out you can spellwrap with that too! Apparently it has been discovered a while ago, but I was not aware of this at the time of discovering it myself. Would you make video on the topic while talking more about spellwrapping?

[@hbushnell]

I'm just amazed that it would even occur to someone as experienced as you that people might get confused about how the horizontal boost would apply to the triplicate bolt, because that's exactly what happened to me!

[@stirringlemur]

Great stuff. Learning all this from your vidoes is gonna make me pick up this game again. I have about 20 hours but put the game down after always dying in the 2nd or 3rd area. Hopefully i can make some more progress with a better wand. One thing im unsure about is. after the wand "wraps" does this remove the recharge delay completly or is it now just placed after the cast that did the wrap?

[@chadolomingo]

Well. Well. Now my head is exploded and it is your fault. Or Noitas? Thanks for explaining!

[@aarepelaa1142]

Thought you explained it already, but idk how it works perfectly but i still get it to work. Honestly awesome stuff, but i really really like triggers because i had no idea they remove cast delay from literally everything in them, and that mana remove thing with add trigger, too bad im never gonna get to where the damn thing is gotten.

[@buttbutterson5326]

Great vid! Do you think you could talk about how to get to parallel worlds with consistent strategies?

[@tonibaloni12]

just watched 5 of your vids and basically understand everyhing about wands and holy mountain forogt to like other 4 tho lol

[@SiganQ]

Dunk, we need more people in the world like you. It's just a stupid video game, right? But, you taking the time to make videos like this saves people who have to work 40 hours a week from having to figure all this stuff out, themselves. This allows them to maximize the time they enjoy the game. So, what you're doing is not appreciated as much as it should be, I think. This is a fun game, and it sucks to miss out on games like this due to the learning curve being a barrier to the fun. With videos like this, you decrease that barrier a lot. Thank you

[@haztepolvo5809]

I just died after loading my game and leaving the holy mountain and here i am trying to learn some extreme wand math algorithms

[@TheAlfredo094]

me when I study phd level theory in order to play a game that I hate but still keep coming back to.

[@palomaran1999]

Just obtained my first win a few hours ago, got an insane spark bolt trigger wand which just shredded through enemies and I wanted to thank you for your work of explaining in detail a lot of not obvious mechanics of this game! Now I wanted to unlock some more spells and stuff, and I know that I should try to kill the alchemist boss below the snowy depths, but I'm at a loss about some practical problems I have in doing so, like: which point of the main path is the best one to decide to go back and challenge him? At the snowy depths I usually am not really strong enough, and afterwards I would need digging through either the holy mountain or extremely dense rock, which is not impossible but really tedious, right?

[@Nivyior]

you can climb through the dense rock with a simple Plasma cutter, be careful with it. Of course there is other simplier way to dig through but it's a basic spell
