LET'S ROLL - Arms Dealer Brotato Danger 5 Guide - The MOST REQUESTED class!

Probably the weirdest class and the single most requested, the Arms Dealer changes its weapons every round! You need knowledge and fortitude to keep up with the constant whirlwind - look no further, for in this video you'll find both!
Detailed class guide and gameplay for Brotato 1.0 on max difficulty, including the unique mechanics, best build, and tips for this class. This run features some very cool weapon combos!

[@laQwoter]

This character has a very specific but insane gimmick. If you get a recycling machine, you sell weapons FOR MORE THAN THEY COST. Yeah, it gets ridiculous pretty fast. Hence, the name, Arms Dealer.

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Haha, I didn't even think of that! I guess the cost of rerolls prevents it from going infinite, but that's still very cool whenever you see a weapon you don't want!

[@FLCN111]

One more suggestion: Maybe you could show the stats of those economy and damage items after the run, so you can see if they were actually worth it. Maybe even do it during the run for the sausage etc

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Good idea! I used to make more of a point of showing stats but have kind of fallen out of the habit. Great reminder!

[@IM_Arcades]

Yeah, Arms Dealer was by far the most annoying when I played for D5. I didn't like that the start has a lot to do with luck and how things go. I did not enjoy Arms Dealer at all.

[@FLCN111]

Arms dealer was always the most anti-fun character for me. I felt that it is the most RNG dependant character. However, I didn't lock weapons in the shop systematically as you did. Which is an excellent trick. So, I might give the arms dealer another chance.

[@Erlewyn]

Same. Last time I played it, I lost because I only got lvl 1 weapons for a horde wave.

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Yeah the locking trick helps a lot, you can *mostly* avoid terrible weapon sets, though as you saw I got unlucky a couple times in the run (and spent all my money accidentally at least once). That's why I like having alien eyes etc so much, it really reduces the risk I think.

[@ps4streamingHD]

20:01 -> The 95% discount is applied to the base weapon tag. The total price increase each wave: a basic slingshot in Shop 1 cost less than the same slingshot in shop 18. The extra money you pay the later you get the weapon is not reduced by 95% .... That's my guess

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Yeah, something's weird with the math I think - the wiki claims the cost for an item should be "Final Price = (Base_Price + Wave + (Base_Price * 0.1 * Wave)) * Shop_Price" but if Shop_Price was 0.05 for the arms dealer I think most weapons would be cheaper by at least a couple materials, so I think the discount is for some reason being applied elsewhere in the calculation or there's some oddities with the rounding. Doesn't matter too much either way but it stood out to me during the run!

[@BRINDANI2000]

Finally, I have completed the set of Danger 5 runs. Without you, it would have been impossible. There are so many small tidbits you have to know to make a run come together. Through your tutorials, you made a game with a handful of hours far far more interesting for far longer. As to this character, I didn't much like him. I was trying for an elemental burn with an engineering base which was doing awesome, but didn't have enough defense to survive the boss. So went many a run. I managed to scrape by with a fraction of the stats, but finished out with hardly any damage. Never mind, it's done. Thanks again for all your help in making it possible.

[@MrPinguX]

Insane last round. Melted right through the bosses.

[@herding-electrons]

4 Nuclear Launchers on wave 20 lmao dude go play the lottery

[@jongreenepwns]

Loads of regen and high hp aside, I could *never* get away with zero armor and negative dodge lol. Last shop --> nuclear launcher, nuclear launcher, nuclear launcher LOL. Very nice run

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Fairy helped a lot with this build, the regen from that was really useful. The low armor was really risky though! Thanks!

[@adrien2748]

hey, thanks for all of your tutorials it helped me a lot and i finally win with the arm dealer (fisherman make me more angry than him haha, but at that time i wasn't watching your video :) ) . My technique here was to upgrade every "universal stats" (%damage, attack speed and mostly crit chance) to make every weapon scales better than if u just choose to try upgrading melee elemental and ranged. so whatever the weapon i had , i was doing lot of damage because of crit chance. my question is was it a good strategy ? thanks :)

[@DoctorCataclysm]

Do you have an "Easiest way to unlock X" series of guides? I think it'd be pretty dope

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Not yet, but that's a good idea! I do have a guide on which characters are best to win with first for their item unlocks though, if you haven't seen that one :)

[@BTTFF]

Wow, the elemental build is no joke. I got lucky and found the elemental to engineering item. Could not kill the end boss due to not having 4 nuke laumchers but everything was dying across the whole mao so I had very few enemies to dodge. Thx

[@damonblack1495]

I feel like I got pretty lucky on my run. I found a scared sausage in the first shop and I leaned into it hard. Basically became a dot build. Found all 4 sausages. I did get unlucky finding a lot of ele dmg and general damage though. Had 2 elite waves where I could not kill the elites. But I could still clear enemies like I had a case of the beer farts.

[@dannyalford1755]

I’m pretty sure standing still with the jousting lance actually reduce YOUR total overall damage by 10%, not just the damage of that weapon. But you obviously had enough dmg to mitigate that😅

[@bearkeeperzgaming8189]

This character SUCKS

[@imaxckrut]

Great guide, thanks to it I easily passed on the first try. The best thing I learned here is not to be stingy with weapons, in order to receive more materials during the wave (this applies to other characters as well), and elemental weapons are really effective!

[@bcfb21]

I wonder what weapon you’ll start with.

[@MrZoltan_DKH]

That last round was bonkers 😁

[@Cephalopocalypse]

No kidding, so many nukes!

[@andrewkleist9579]

nice potato

[@Arbie117]

Great content 😁

[@emmioglu3214]

22:18 are you good man ?

[@Cephalopocalypse]

?

[@defortes7319]

That was a fun run!

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Thanks! Yeah this was a good one, arms dealer is always cool

[@dimitardimov3936]

✌

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Cheers!

[@eli8729]

interesting design, but i kinda hate this class. it feels awful and unfun to play. i get it, its supposed to be a thirll if u get what u want and stuff but it feels like this class is pretty luck dependent

[@SkepticalKookaboora]

I enjoy arms dealer
