Grounded 1.4 Tier 3 Armor Tier List

[@Lucas-ez7vv]

Video Idea: Which weapons get which candy infusion. T3 Weapons are great but knowing what to infuse which ones with is confusing. A guide explaining the best candy to infuse a weapon with would be really helpful especially into New Game +

[@jordansanders7249]

Uhhh just think about the effects of each and the weapons and their mutations that proc with them and go from there, it all works like the elements.

[@NotTheGian]

sour scimy is stronk

[@DiveBombRebel]

Antlion armor could use a change. Make the sizzle effect the set bonus, make the reload speed the piece effect, and give it a whole new sleek effect.

[@gregariousjb]

5:17 - not a single mention that the Black Ox set affects candy staves? Are magic builds really that bad?

[@jordansanders7249]

I like magic build better than the bow builds, I feel like bow build are for scared people.

[@xixon__]

It's really good in multiplayer as long as you avoid friendly fire

[@williamschofield6549]

yes

[@SharpWits2013]

Blaster of the Moldy Matriarch and the IBM armor set are really fun to like... Clear out the red ant hill and giggle at all the explosions until one bounces just right and absolutely 1 shots you. Then it just sits on an armor stand in my base. lol

[@DiveBombRebel]

If you have battle buddies on, the explosions do very little damage to you.

[@aronhorvath7862]

Hi! I have a myth for you. Myth: if you put ant eggs into your baby ant's inventory then you deposit it in a pet house, the eggs wont hatch.

[@aronhorvath7862]

Tested it. Unfortunately busted😥

[@miguel360kmc]

​@@aronhorvath7862 They do take longer to hatch. I had a ton of black ant eggs and no use for them I made like six of the meals but still had 5 or 6 more didn't want to trash them just yet I didn't need the space so I gave them to my pet 🐕 later on I ran out of space so I had to move some more stuff over to my pet and I noticed that the timer had fully went out but instead of hatching it looked like a sliced pie three sections full. Can't say for sure how much longer it was after that I would say maybe 15-20 minutes later there was a ton of black ants following my black ant 😅

[@DiveBombRebel]

So if you have battle buddies on, you won't get hurt by the explosions from the moldy blaster if you're using the moldy matriarch armor and you can also life steal off explosions if you have apex predator on. So I think it should at least be in C tier, especially since you can get the infused blaster in ng +4.

[@bozomontarius1291]

I get what your going for, but a part of the reason it’s in D tier is because of how expensive it is, plus it doesn’t help that it can only be used on two bosses. It can in very specific circumstances be the best armor set in the game with its high defense and the blaster of the moldy matriarch giving life steal, but it’s too inconsistent for the price

[@DiveBombRebel]

@@bozomontarius1291 You can use it for the mixers in ng+ and the javamatic since the enemy count increases.

[@fatpandajeff]

i beg you make a 1.4 weapons tier list

[@lewis_g]

I get why some people want it but I kinda hope they don’t nerf ng+ being so hard just cause idk I like it, some stuff does feel quite stupid but still im only on ng+4 and the challenge is really fun and just forcing me to get even better at the game everytime, it’s not meant to be something everyone can complete and get to ng+10 or whatever

[@Cat_1n_A_Basket]

@@muhammadimtiyaz7342the broken bow build uses bows because they shoot faster, giving more chances for crits to land and then it doesn’t stuff with the crits. Crossbows I find are better as a secondary weapon to a melee based build

[@onrejhabian9639]

the widow armor is becomming my favorite armor, with the set bonus you kill anything and it gives you back so much hp i dont even need bandages in ng+ , also pretty good for broodmother fight

The only thing left is the infected broodmother and oh boy... now I'm browsing internet what set-up to forge to get through that. Glad to find out the Widow armor is not that good and there is room to upgrade, but still not sure what armor to use.

[@YRhandlesathing]

I like using the moldy matriarch set (ofc w/ spore lord) for waft emitter raids in ng+. Huge horde of black ox beetles, some infused. Towards the end, I feel nothing, and the bombs are chunking hp of 3-4 at a time

[@jordansanders7249]

Ok my build I mainly run with the BM helm and greaves and the widow chest because of the poison damage and poison parry, works really well with everything, and if your gonna run a ranged build I would do the wizard hat with the moth chest and legs for range crit because it works with the staff, so does the poison effect with the BM and widow gear of you keep that one, point is I main those pieces of that set because it makes you a DoT God glass cannon, with decent defense but if you putting so much poison damage constantly you only have to heal once. You don't really have to be defensive if you know the attack patterns and mechanics, and if you need to be defensive switch to your staff and go to high ground. I don't even use a bow for anything, I just blast them with the fire staff and poison then with a proc and get them to land. I guess I just play different . I mainly use the widow, BM and assassin pieces for my builds.

[@legendarytomatobird2816]

On my run so far I've managed just fine with a full mantis set, because I have always liked running the crit build you get with the set bonus (I have been playing on woah) It's worked pretty well tbh, I'm still only on NG+ 2 though. I don't think the lower defence will be too much of an issue though because I happen to have a science cone that gives +crit chance and +damage resist (and +dust guard but that doesn't matter), it helps get around the lowered defence pretty well

[@paraly5er]

That damage resist from the cone goes crazy, should be helping you massively

[@legendarytomatobird2816]

@@paraly5er honestly it helps less than you might expect A while ago though I ended up with +crit chance, crit damage up major, finale fury Finale fury mantis scythe is.. Fine? I guess. But I considered that to be overall a better option so started running that instead

[@vinhthinhnguyen1087]

really? Fire ant strategist armor is not good? It carried me to NG+5 Whoa! mode when running map bruh. This armor + Axit staff is the best combination to deal with Infused bugs in the yard. On higher NG+ like 6 above then this armor is not that good anymore cause most of the time the Infused bugs have vampirism infused, so they heal up really quickly + with a shield Infused then the armor is useless, but to be fair, using it pass through NG+5 Whoa! mode is no joke with this set

[@DiveBombRebel]

Fire Strategist armor is pretty fun against the hedge broodmother. I managed to get a science cone with samurai and summon crit on it so I can use the the coaltana very fast while getting an army of fire ants ants the same time.

[@vinhthinhnguyen1087]

@@DiveBombRebel isn't that will kill you even faster LOL. Never fight an infused near your summons, cause when they hit your minions, the infuse ability will also active. More over when the Broodmother doesn't focus on you, 80% chance she will jump away and land on your face and that's GG LOL

[@Melikewaterlol]

Nice video bro keep cooking

[@chromechef891]

If they allow armor to upgrade past 9 in new game + it would let more builds be possible. All the while reducing the difficulty with player progression rather than a generic dificulty nerf.

[@mtbunny-yt]

I though he mentioned in other videos that DoTs are trash. How come he ranks the brood other set so highly due to the effect??

[@sneakygoliath2568]

I like the blaster. Fighting hoards of enemies it becomes the best life stealing weapon. It gives so much health it’s stupid. Plus running battle buddies makes blaster deal almost nothing to you meaning you can throw it at your feet.

[@DiveBombRebel]

Also combos with truffle tussle if you're using a fist build.

[@DiveBombRebel]

So it really seems like armor should be upgraded with fusion crystals. It seems like really bad game design that you can't use full light armor at all without being able to perfect block all the time.

[@miguel360kmc]

Best build set is the red ant set with hauling hero intern badge with the red ant as your pet. I use my sour battle axe 🪓 1 shot everything 🎉 same with my black ant shovel and Black ox hammer both level 7s they 1 shot everything with Perks plus mutations.

Thanks in advance!!!

[@TheGreatHaze6]

I dont get it😅.. even in NG+ it seems as though as long as you're not taking effect damage such as venom or acid you can literally hold your block and take virtually no damage as long as you have defensive stance lowkey just learn the different attack patterns and time your blocks you're fine for fighting just about everything

This is true but if your block gauge fills you get stunned also if you run out of stamina you will take damage through your shield
