Dead Cells | All 13 Aspects Review & Tier List

[@jamesyin3220]

One rarely mentioned use of the Tinker aspect is it drops the Night Light cooldown to 1s in the Forgotten Sepulcher as well. It makes that level significantly easier.

[@the_og_alpha]

Yeah but giving up achievements and boss cells to negate the mechanic of one level(which isn't even that hard to manage since there are permanent light sources littered at every teleporter and tele-rune) not to mention that said level can be skipped if you feel like your build won't cut it, its not worth it imo I would rather use that second slot for cocoon or something that would help against the corpulent zombies

[@roma540]

@@the_og_alpha There is however one thing you can use this. Safer acquire of Point Blank (from Corpulent Zombie exclusive to FS) and Acceptance (requires Moonflowers, on of which is in FS). Not that it makes it out-of-category more viable.

[@the_og_alpha]

@@roma540 I am a 1BC newbie so I ain't worried about moonflowers lmao

[@roma540]

@@the_og_alpha Fair point. Acceptance isn't very viable mutation anyway. Plus, it only spawns on 3bc+ if I'm not mistaken. To be honest, never seen, why would I want to go there otherwise. My average route goes as Prisoners' Quarters (Obviously), Toxic Sewers, Corrupted Prison, Ancient Sewers, Insufferable Crypt (Conjunctivius), Graveyard, Cavern, Guardian' Haven (Giant), High Peak Castle, Throne Room (Hand Of King). Of course, I already have Spider Rune required for some of those biomes.

[@the_og_alpha]

@@roma540 Actually it spawns from 0BC but the route required to collect all Moonflowers AND reach the biome with Acceptance is only possible with 3BC doors

[@pawarl.o.s.881]

My favorite aspect is Damned. One trick I like to do it break the shop doors in the first level to gain of curse of 100.

[@angelcell.]

Me too

[@antoninaego5186]

Honestly, I can see how aspects can be super useful when you're hunting for blueprints accessible on higher BCs. Especially since one of the skill slots is locked with Hunter's Grenade and you really don't need another boss cell.

[@Qwertymomoo]

For blood drinker, run open wounds and sadists steledo for a crit dealing bleedfest

[@Eternalsolstice1997]

With open wounds and blood drinker, you could become almost invincible with the rapier or any other fast weapon

[@bappojujubes981]

Just use Collector's syringe with this as well as scheme for extra damage and you win.

[@Alakazoro]

Blood drinker for sure has been my favorite aspect to mess around with!

[@justarandomguy983]

You literally become v1 from ultrakill

[@Titelitury1]

Blood drinker + open wounds + collector's syringe = immortality

[@sharkastic2633]

“No ground slam build.” Telluric shock wants to know your location.

[@SlickWillHermsted]

Wings of the crow has an enhanced slam as well

[@gexianhen]

I feel there was a boots with extra slam damege too but maybe there are no longer around. The game has changed a lot

[@TheMathtag]

also fall damage bonus is not just pushing off of ledges scythe claw, war spear, wave of denial and spartan boots trigger fall damage easily

[@puncrafter349]

One thing I haven't seen mentioned yet is that the toxin lover aspect works with corrosive cloud, which allows for consistent, if slow, healing anywhere without having to worry about searching for an affix or going to the sewers. Blood drinker's still better tho

[@idkmanjustwannachill]

Bro, you tried trident or bone with blood drinker yet??

[@timfosler4244]

Yep, you even don't have to worry about malaise increasing since you can just heal in a shop or by a treasure chest where the game is automatically paused.

[@thefrostwizardgamer1555]

Also with the modifier that gives you poison when you get hit in custom mode

[@AizenJabberwock]

Very nice video as the topic hasn't been talked much yet, I personally use Grenadier for my cell farming runs and I was using Tinker for my Blueprints runs, but after watching this video I'll give Relentless I try for sure! Much easier to face tank the whole thing than just having a permanent Tesla Coil around while still having to worry about dodging and parrying no doubt.

[@Glowdude]

It’s worth noting that stomper is absolutely gamebreaking with the Spartan Sandals. The fall damage that enemies take even from the tiny kick is insane, and can easily one shot just about every enemy and melt most bosses. It’s crazy.

[@Modernisse]

I need to make a mention about shatter: This combined with the Melee, frostbite, no mercy while using frostblast, any other weapon, and the ice grenade, is an easy run. Especially if you get the affixes that slow enemies down in an AoE after thawing or killing an enemy.

[@sleepyy6167]

without abusing the invincibility, relentless is super fun. just get 1 hp going through the entire game, and you do stupid damage while dying in one hit.

[@RandomTomatoMusic]

So... Cursed Sword but verbose?

[@dimsthedimwit600]

I got an idea: Run with only Hokuto's bow. Skills (and maybe shields) allowed and will probably be the main source of damage

[@terminatroll-_-3269]

Ok but then that would basically just be a skills-only run but with hokuto's bow as a bonus

[@dimsthedimwit600]

@@terminatroll-_-3269 Yeah

[@pianissimo7121]

@@dimsthedimwit600 i did that myself, n I have seen a youtuber do it too. Although I failed to spoiler, so yeah, i didn't do it successfully.

I feel that Relentless is for those farming cells... I reached 4BC and still need thousands of cells to unlock everything, think I'm gonna use that to farm them.

[@rickard486]

I beat 2BC at my 49th run toady thanks to your guides man

[@kraymerman]

My favorite aspect is Blood Drinker because, through a very specific build, I was able to completely break the game (5BC especially) with it: *Blood Drinker *Open Wound *Electrokinetics Because the game counts the damage dealt with Electrokinetics as melee damage, this build basically gives you a passive healing factor whenever you're nearby an enemy, which, in 5BC, is pretty much always, completely eliminating the need to use flasks to regain health.

[@Chaotic-v4x]

A lot of these would be really cool mutations if tweaked properly

[@lordprecel8323]

I recently tried blood drinker and oh boi does it heal. I used tonic and ice armor as buffers and ended up face tanking all bosses on 4 BSC. Open Wounds with a fast weapon (I used sadist and later baseball with +dmg on bleeding affix) makes this ridiculously good.

[@harizhafiz9143]

I did a set with relentless once. I chose the frantic sword with a front line shield no gadgets or power ups. I killed a lot very quickly. Vampirism sounds like a great idea.

[@atheontimesconflux1067]

A good ground slam build is using the shovel knight king scepter or whatever it’s called and after hitting the enemy, going down for a slam. It’s insanely satisfying to do, and if you combine it with oil and flame it’s like a fluid combo

[@baitreview]

I use grenadier when grinding for cells. The room clearing ability with this skill is insane

[@ManhNguyen-mt8ve]

nice that you upload your video

[@cloakx3640]

Since I finished the game completely, and have no other need for BSCs, I use Damned almost all the time now. It's pretty fun.

[@raresradoi39]

Menagerie also deserves to be in the great tier imo. The safest way to use it is w Mushroom Boi and the leghugger since those 2 dont go away if u get hit like owl or if you dont pop the marks with serenade. Esp in a tactics builds, having 3 times the normal damage (if we're not counting bonus damage affixes) means you kinda instakill everything on any BSC. Your skills will be pretty useless, but imo its the 2nd best after Relentless because it gives you the most damage out of all aspects.

[@spanbab]

Is it fine to use aspect on 5bc? I haven't finished the game yet but it's to hard for me in mobile

[@raresradoi39]

@@spanbab Depends on what you mean by fine. I don't see why you shouldn't do it if that's what you want, but unfortunately it probably still locks achievements and new boss costumes. I haven't even started my first 5BC run yet, but I really wanna do it without aspects because if you manage your Malaise, there's nothing special about 5BC

[@kyzora_2710]

now that queen n sea is a thing stomper actually memes on stuff with gilded yumi so funny to push enemies off the screen

[@asyds]

as a begginer i've come up with some (basic) builds for shatter and superconductor but idk if they are well known or not. for Shatter a Broadsword with +175% to enemies with freeze and (obviously) anything that will freeze the enemy (i reccommed Frost blast instead if Ice grenade bc it has no cooldown). for Superconductor the electric Whip and a Blood Sword with *Bleeding Causes Posioning* you can also use the Wolf trap but thats up to you. For this one the Whip is more useful for clearing out rooms with lots of enemies

[@goatsfluffy8254]

For shatter just use ice now or ice crossbow and then spam to repeat shatter.

[@zxmrmayhemxz8191]

I think if you can switch em out like mutations, then they would be 10x better. Toxin lover would only be viable on the sewer biomes, and the speed aspect only good for that dark biome where you need light. Rn, Firestarter cursed and Superconductor are my three favorite aspects. Those are the ones I normally run.

[@scilancegaming3034]

The gotta go fast was inspired by sonic for in sonic GX or something in the theme song said gotta go fast

Isn’t Telluric Shock a stomp put into an ability that is enhanced? If thats the case wouldn’t that ability work well with the “Stomper” aspect?

[@loganharris7801]

I wish aspects were less impactful, but didn’t prevent obtaining new boss cells. If they were, they’d feel like a useful and noticeable starter mutation without being game changing to the point of feeling cheaty.

In many of my runs I skip cursed chests because I am not confident with it, I just want to have runs that get to the endgame just to practice them. I am thinking about using the Damned aspect while having the Cursed Sword in my backpack, just to get me more confident with the Cursed mechanic and how to approach things when cursed.
