Noita Multicast Wand Spell Wrapping

[@cdesy]

One thing that sometimes helps - if you hit a bump in your wand, i.e. it's firing slowly for some reason, just spam leftclick. The wand will tell you 'Cast Delay' or 'Recharging', provided you can click fast enough.

[@DunkOrSlam]

Nice tip! Didn't even think of that!

[@denizyldrm580]

Yes that is very helpfull, also there appears a bar under the mana bar and if its orange then its recharge but if its blue then its cast delay. Sometimes its hard to click fast enough to see the "recharging" so you can use this info too.

[@pepijn1901]

@@denizyldrm580 because of this tip i now use an autoclicker in noita

[@aarepelaa1142]

@@pepijn1901 i made a little macro to get the item possession glitch consistent lmao, and even though it's every time the same inputs it fails very often.

[@Nexurl]

@aare pelaa so that means the game is non deterministic right ?

[@salvaribeiro]

One good thing about multiple spells/cast is when they come in a shuffled wand. As long as you add one less projectile than the number of spells/cast it will always cast all modifiers on the wand, even though it's shuffled. Because even if you get unlucky and the first spell drawn is the projectile, the second one will grab a modifier and it will go on until it wraps. With end game spells it's not very useful due to order being so important but you can make very powerful shuffled wands by using this mechanic.

[@zzstoner]

Props to Dunk for making this video on the fly overnight simply because one person in Twitch chat last night was interested in wanting to know how this mechanic works. Kudos for going that extra mile! 😸👍

[@zzstoner]

I remember back in EA when wands had the chance of having an Auto-Cast of a "Multicast Spell" like Double Spell or Double Scatter. Then if when mixed those with a multi-cast WAND, and it was janky AF, and many times useless. Most folks when seeing those wands would simply throw them away. Thankfully Devs removed Multicast spells from the AC spell pool, before official v1.0. [ Feel free to correct me if my history is wrong... my brain cells are turning into mushy raisins these days ]

[@zolan4277]

This was, by far, the best explanation of wrapping I've seen. You are awesome. Thank you.

[@epsik]

Your videos have reignited my interest in Noita. I've played it for like 50 hours, and now after watching all your tutorials, I've recently put in another hundred and even got to the 11 orb ending! I was missing this bit of advanced info to make the process of "tinkering" with wands actually fun and engaging. After hearing your explanations, it now feels more like proper experimenting instead of just mindlessly putting spells in and hoping something happens. The game got a whole new feel to it, now. There's some semblance of control, even, as opposed to solely being at the mercy of RNG. Thanks, man!

[@cubsfanbigmike31]

There's a lot of good info in the wiki as well & the subreddit has a lot of helpful folks to answer questions & even help with wand builds

[@KelvenLV]

You’ve just made my Noita runs so much more easier. Thanks man

[@StevieHendrikson]

Hearing "spells slash cast" instead of spells per cast really got me lmao

[@cubsfanbigmike31]

Wand Refresh has some interesting properties with multicast wands. Off the top of my head, I believe you can wrap more than once - but don't hold my feet to the fire on that.

[@zackaiser2383]

Also a multicast into a spell and a refresh will cause the spell to be cast for free (no charges!)

[@oralevato7848]

Can confirm, I got a spell to wrap multiple times with refresh/multicast. 5 spells in the wand, 15 show up on the spell board, 1 add mana became 3. It seems really strong, but tbh I haven't the faintest idea how to utilize it in tinkering yet.

[@jusperknusper]

Ever since I started watching your videos, my winrate has increased drastically.

[@arinsugu1008]

A great noita guide as always, thank you DunkOrSlam. Idk if anyone else has requested it yet, but I hope that one of these days you feel inclined to make an all boss guide about the strategies on how to fight each boss. Thank you.

[@seanmyers227]

You did a fantastic job of explaining everything. The concept of a multicast wand NEEDING a reason to wrap was something that was really hard for me to understand. This is awesome! Thanks for making this video

[@wkLeoTrooper]

I have almost 500 hours in, and I still learn stuff from your videos. I've been looking at wands as a whole, rather than going through the sequence spell by spell. These little informative videos have helped me make less into more, and make lousy runs into decent ones early on.

[@exhaustsniffa]

Great video as always Dunk. You should make one about damage wands that are not rapid fire. Stuff like homing mists, infinite trigger tentacles, easy wands to kill wand connoisseur/alchemist. After a while it becomes easy to understand rapid fire wands but its hard to come up with other common ways to build damage wands.

[@arielruzitsky4510]

This is so useful!!! You're my favourite noituber I learn so muchhh

[@Obe_Qwaet]

Dunk lemme say thank you because I've been watching your videos (can't catch live streams) for a bit, and your tips do help. I've gone 1 win and 400 losses and I started utilizing some of the things I learned by watching you and I got my 2nd win. ...and then well I decided to do almost any and everything I could. A good wand with a little bit of know-how can set you FREE is2g. Got wrecked at the High Alchemist after 6 hours of running around, but I figured it was my time anyway.

[@royceblack6752]

Haha in one fo my last runs I felt pretty confident with a spark bolt trigger into quad chainsaw but the high alchemist had none of that and kicked my butt xD Only difference is that I spent less than one hour.

[@vidyagaems4063]

This clarifies the weirdness a lot. Requiring a modifier at the end to start wrapping is hard to figure out otherwise.

[@MarseLiko93]

This is D best guide for the wrapping!! It’s finally make sense!!! I bet that a lot of people like me know about the chainsaw and little noita math but some times it make you hard time, and you find yourself trying rearrange the wand for half hour because you 100% sure its should work. Thanks again

[@loffredabernardes]

Good to see you posting more vids! Love your content! Btw after watching your full runs and guides like this I managed do get my first 11 orb win, killing the alchemist for the first time, after 90hrs of playtime and 150 atempts! Thanks soo much for the content! I'd love a sun seed quest run or maybe a leviathan guide :)

[@jameslarimer9211]

When I come to your videos with a question, they almost always get answered in a way I can understand. And I'm a giga-noob.

[@TheCardinal365]

Thanks to your wand tutorials I had my first win after 130 hours played haha. keep up the great tutorials!

[@lobenshot]

i recently bought noita and your videos are helping me a TON! What an amazing game, but i think i would have never been able to figure this all out on my own. So thanks a lot for these amazing tutorials!

[@cedricbollinger9774]

I'm a really big fan of your wand construction videos and would definitely watch more

[@britishbeef4890]

Got my first win after 40 hours after making a sick chain saw wand using wrapping.

[@piratalafayete]

21:09 This!! Understanding why it was slowing down was crucial for me to... wrap my head around the concept. Seriously though, I would always get caught up in the Rechrg. Time and forget to notice each spell group have their own Cast delay. This video should be played on repeat with a chainsaw at the end for all Noita players. Thank you again for sharing the knowledge!

[@venrakdrake]

Damn idk why I waited so long on watching THIS one!! Very well explained

[@royceblack6752]

11:45 "wrap" my mind around? oh really? xD Edit: I finished watching the video and it made perfect sense even though I didn't watch the other wrap nor the chainsaw video yet (they're bookmarked tho). Just as you said I'm a visual learner and I paused everytime to see if I would get it right. ^^ Also since I've watched a whole run where you tried to explain a lot of stuff I've gotten much better by a long shot. So thanks for that as well :D I'm quite new to Noita so there are still a few things I'm wondering so I might post some ideas for guides under upcoming videos :)

[@lukaslanger8077]

Please dont stop doing tutorials, Dunk!

[@dylanp629]

Explanations here are good. This might get me to actually use later multicasts instead of sticking with something i found in coal pits just because it's the no shuffle single cast that I'm comfortable with

[@adammattox894]

Thanks for the tutorials. I think you can say spells per cast though (spells/cast)

[@MrAlexVelik]

Thank you for making this video! Kept your promise, man 😌

[@Alexander_rekaX]

Thats a very helpful video. Though I have a few questions: How does Wand Refresh works in the Wand of Multitudes? And how does it behave if there is an expensive Auto-cast spell/modifier? Because it feels like auto-cast spell starting to bug out and hog mana

[@notnotandrew]

A single spell cannot be cast twice on the same click... unless you have a Wand Refresh spell as part of the cast. The Wand Refresh causes the 'deck' to be 'reshuffled' meaning that spells in the discard pile (i.e. those already cast in the current cast block) can once again be drawn. This applies before the Wand Refresh is discarded, meaning it cannot cause itself to be cast twice on one click. Thus the highest number of times you can cast a given spell on a single click is 2, or 1 without a Wand Refresh. HOWEVER, I'm not certain what happens when you have two Wand Refreshes on the same wand/in the same casting block. I suspect that they would cycle each other into the deck, meaning you could cast a single spell many times with one cast. This would be a neat thing to try with the Wand of Multitudes, which could allow you to cast a single spell 13 times with one click.

[@adamklosterman101]

Very eye opening. I had a run last night with a ton of resources, but felt like I was seriously underutilizing what I had at my disposal. Seems I was correct. Lol

[@raedev]

a thing that makes it a bit easier to understand wrapping for me is the fact that the game treats spells as "cards in a deck". and I dont just mean it in a figurative way, the code literally refers to them as cards, decks and card casts, which is why the multicast spells actually have cards as their icons. the way (most) modifiers work is they draw another spell card and apply their effect to them. they are essentially "single cast" spells (like double-cast, but with one) with extra effects. that's why adding a modifier at the end of the multicast wands "gives them a reason" to wrap.

[@isar2475]

Thank you, now I know how it works

[@excrubulent]

I think the fact you're constantly thinking about whether or not you've clearly explained something is why you're so good at explaining things. Just completed my first Noita run after watching some of your stuff, I understand the game so much better now it wasn't even a huge challenge in the end. Looking forward to finding out what else there is in this game. I mean I've spoiled some of it for myself but I think experiencing it is what really matters.

[@LykeArgy]

this video just explains stuff a whole lotta better lol, but even without it i randomly made a rapid fire multicast wand a while back =)

[@Bullrun61]

[@romaliop]

I think the multicast wands don't wrap automatically just because people would immediately think there's something weird going on with the multicast wands. The way they work currently is more intuitive from the point of view of a player who hasn't yet discovered spell wrapping.

I love putting a Chainsaw into a triggerbolt that has a freeze charge modifier on it... it's seems to count as a melee attack- and everything just insta-dies And if I get two Chainsaws- well... basically a wand you can use up to the boss?...
