SUMMONING INFINITE BALLS! - PEGLIN

[@theshindigg]

I love how peglin doesnt just allow, but encourages op builds. I just wish there was an endless mode to see how far your op build could take you

[@epochx7157]

Indeed, shame Diablo 4 doesn't take a page from Peglin's book.

[@StrangelyIronic]

A lot of builds just get you killed on the first map early as you go higher in cruciball or whatever the difficulty thing is. You might just got a bad refresh spot and auto lose along with the like 6 pebbles you start with.

[@IndigoWhiskey]

to be fair once you've won a chess game with nine queens you just have to look elsewhere to exercise the build part of the brain.

[@sootcoot8712]

Until you crash... squirrel and durable is a bad. some maps have them spawn too many for the game to handle. Add some meteorite or durable in the mix and you hit 1fps in 2 seconds.

[@zorthonthedevistaorscott2481]

Honestly it would be cool if the game had an endless mode unlocked after beating the base game that you build up in a regular game then start the endless quest with no upgrades just purely on what you built with increasingly powerful foes

[@yogsathoth7960]

Well each summoning multiplied how many circles there was so... he had 1 giant circle that made 3 smaller those smaller made 3 smaller per circle and those even smaller made 3 smaller per circle. So a better visual is peglin throwing the circle at the ceiling and the dragon and peglin watching for about 10 seconds as the portals open up. Then the dragons gets crushed alive under a tide of balls and squirrels. edit: math is (not including the first portal) 3^3 portals so in total 27 portals all spewing out stuff

[@spaceboysam]

the editing in this video was on point, cracking up over here

[@Crazyspaceman]

Keep the multi-ball! It splits into 8 balls at level 3

[@eivind261093]

Keeping the multi-ball is great for the 8 balls.... but it also breaks the 'chain' of summoning circles, if multi-ball isn't the last ball in his "magazine". Having all those summoning circles first, and a multi-ball at the very end, is perfect, but if he ends up with, say, summoning circle first, and multi-ball 2nd, it's significantly less OP. (By my interpretation of how the summoning circle works, at least)

[@omegaRST]

Its really fun but if you want to consistently get a ton of balls the ideal build is as many summoning circles as you can, the more circles the worse it is to have the multiball

[@Potoaster]

The adventurine was the best possible relic for that build I think

[@MrShukaku1991]

It's honestly a super powerful relic for almost any build.

[@Sloth337]

One shotting the wall boss is crazy! Wow!

[@mikef5951]

So calculating the number of balls at the end with the 4 summoning circles followed by the multiball It's 3^4 = 81 multiballs summoned, and then it splits into 81 * 2^3 = 648 balls And now squirrels! The dragon was on 6338 hp before Tom fired, meaning it took a total of 3662 damage from Infernal Ingot and Mental Mantel before he fired. Ingot does 0.2 dmg per peg and mantel does 0.5 dmg per peg. So 3662 / 0.7 = 5,231 pegs hit 5,231 pegs / 40 pegs per squirrel summon = 130 squirrels. With a margin of error of maybe a squirrel depending on where the counters were on each of the relics at the start of the fight

[@kuru5964]

The summoning circle can only summon 16 orbs before stopping. So the final number would be 2^7 balls, or 128 balls.

[@TheSongaroo]

With some quick math, dragon took 3662 damage from refreshes, which is 7324 pegs hit, squirrels are summoned every 40, so 183 squirrels. So....around 830ish orbs? From 3*3*3*8+(3662*2)/40 Edit : Obv not including the 3 teleports to top, tho. Those dont count as new orbs.

[@kuru5964]

Summoning circle can only summon 16 orbs before stopping, so it would be about 311 orbs

[@StarbornCthulhu]

Ah my favorite ball build. Balls from balls from balls. And more balls added on

[@ajcunningham5892]

I'm a simple man, I see Peglin, I click Peglin. I love that Tom has discovered what is probably the most absurdly overpowered build in the game! Experiment with this with different orbs-lightning is a good choice too!

[@vegladex]

Gotta say, this is definitely my favourite build you've done so far too! MORE BALLS MORE GOOD! Also, I think you really should keep the Matryorbshka. Without it, you get a very reliable 3^X balls, where X is the number of summoning circles you have. But the Matryorbshka puts its own BIG multiplier on how many balls you end up with, multiplying the number that come out of the summoning circles by **8** ! It's true that this might mean missing out on stacking up some of the summoning, but the gambling is part of the fun!!!!!

[@Reaper_Rin]

After Tom's last comment about the dragon, I now want a painting of Tom dressed up as Gandalf assaulting a dragon on its pile of gold with a million squirrels.

[@happyhatebot]

Once it got rolling that was just supremely satisfying to watch *explode* in numbers both voluminous and ridiculous. Writing that one down for a rainy day 'Feck it, we multiball' cheering up plan. SO MANY BALLS.

[@SH4D0W0733]

Another strong build is having enough Echorb to keep chaining them + Echo Chamber relic. You basically do 110% of the previous balls damage + pegs hit to every enemy with every shot rapidly increasing in damage.

When I saw the episode was only 20 minutes long I assumed Tom was gonna die halfway through the run, not that he was going to one shot half the game 😂😂

[@soheilvafaee9505]

That was an absolutely insane build! it was so satisfying to watch. i just won my first run of peglin with a bomb build. I had a lot of relics and orbs that added bombs to the board, also bombs activated their surrounding pegs, and also i had a seperate ballwark thing going on with adding shields to pegs, which also buffed another ball i had for damage, and i also had a damage multiplier of 2 that did self-damage every 25 pegs, but I was safe behind ballwark, and I also had a relic which gave me crits for every 11 coins. it felt amazing.

[@Eturian]

Dearest Tomothy. No idea if this is common knowledge already or not; but I accidentally discovered that in the post-chest peg screen (like at 6:40) if you manage to detonate all the bomb pegs, you will earn another relic! I've only managed it a few times myself, but it's definitely worth trying if you have the "bombs activate nearby pegs" and "bombs detonate in one hit" relics. x

[@AvangionQ]

I'm glad KZbin put one of your Poglin videos in my recommended yesterday ... been binging them ever since. 13:13 Summoning Circle is the most broken orb in the game ... needs a nerf: take 1 damage whenever you summon an orb Yes, I want relics such as Gardener's Gloves and Intentional Oboe to negate the nerf ... for balance. 13:50 Every other combat after the 3rd act started, I'm just here screaming ... IT'S OVER 9000!!

[@Loreroth]

It looked to me like there was a limit to the number of times summoning circle activated. With 3 circles I counted about 15 times when it should have been 27. With multiball thats still upwards of 120 balls provided they all spawned, though it seemed like less.

[@helplmchoking]

I wonder if there's a limit or if the game just couldn't actually keep up, it almost looked like it was stuttering there and might be skipping some balls. Definitely wasn't firing them all butit didn't matter lol

[@kuru5964]

There is a limit of 16 balls that the circle can summon

Most I've seen was just shy of 900k damage, but that was long ago before they nerfed the magnet and multi-crit relics through the floor. Haven't seen anything 6 figures in a looooong time now

[@EffinChat]

Another good addition to this build is the relic that gives all your balls Morbid Because at first they follow the same trajectory, you effectively machinegun a whole pile of balls through a single peg, triggering it each time. Its a blast.

[@irregularassassin6380]

Add the "first peg hit gets +10" relic to that, and uh ... "that's a lotta damage!"

[@Zythria]

Oooooookay. That was sure a build. That was awesome. Summoning circles, which summoned more circles which all chained down until they couldn't summon more, looping back so they were all the same ball... Then that being mutliball X3. So you had 9 balls per summoning circle and 3 summoning circles, giving you a smooth 27 balls, against the dragon. How did I miss this video? Hahaha.

[@RipJaws1]

Getting rid of the multiball ensures that you always have the complete chain of Summoning Circle, but the perfect sequence (all of the summoning circles first and then the multiball) is so much better than getting rid of the multiball, because now every ball you summon also makes duplicates

[@MitsuhideDono]

That was amazing! You started my day with a good laugh; Thank you Tom.

[@garr_inc]

Regarding the final number of balls: each Summoning Circle multiplies the previous number of balls by 3, while Matryorbshka multiplies that number by 8 (Multiball 1 by 2, then those two by 2, and then those four by 2). Therefore that one volley contained 81 Level 3 Matryorbshkas, which could potentially, if all balls hit pegs, reach 648 balls. And that doesn't even include squirrels!

[@kuru5964]

Summoning circles can only summon a maximum of 16 orbs before stopping, leading to a total of 128 orbs after splitting and not counting squirrels

Tom, i dont know if you realise how good the multiball is. Summoning Circle summons 3 Sumoning Circles, They each spawn 3 summoning circles (9), they each spawn 3 summoning circles (27), they each spawn a multiball (81) which then doubles (162) which then doubles again (324) which then doubles again for a total of 648 balls

[@mikef5951]

There is some consideration to it though, because if the multiball were like, second in the deck. You'd break the chain of summoning circles and end up with a lot less. There's about a 20% chance of it ordering in this ideal way

[@kuru5964]

The summoning circle can only summon 16 balls before stopping, so with multi-ball 3, it would be 128 orbs
