The Godfather Of Vampire Survivors VS The Most Insane No Movement Challenge

Dex slowly drifting into madness is why we all come back.

[@matthiaspeeters4104]

I love that he goes to german so naturally and then snaps back out of it xD

[@MulderStarling]

Slowly?

[@Silver_Sage663]

Here is a theory. 43:00 The first Attractorb you got was by a cat, which was moving and therefore the red gem flew tangential to you and went like 7 miles away. Then the second attractorb re-triggered that red gem and it just took a hella long time to get to you.

[@Karuyine]

I think it doesn't work like that

[@dahahaka]

Nope, The problem is currently on the new engine when you trigger vacuum and you kill something the game isn't able to put the extra xp in the existing red gem, so it generates a new red gem and "steals" the xp from the red gem that is flying towards you. So there's a new red gem on the floor with all of the XP you wanted, and you instead collect a red gem that has like 1xp in it.

[@alexstewart9592]

While the healing effect of evolved Garlic doesn't work if it can't kill enemies, it ALSO gets permanent bonus damage from all healing received after it evolves, and so evolving it early does actually add a decent amount of raw damage. I don't think the bonus damage won the challenge for you, but I suspect it may have saved you a revive at the end.

The irony of someone called Dex not moving

[@danielduncan6806]

Yeah, it is unacceptable to lose the experience you earned. That definitely needs fixing. It is probably affecting everyone, but most people can't/don't even understand what they are looking at.

[@MikeyMile5411]

My guess is, the game is programmed to only have so many exp gems on the screen at one time, so all extra stops dropping

[@danielduncan6806]

@@MikeyMile5411Definitely not what is going on here. We already know the gems stop dropping at some point. But all exp gets compacted into a red gem slightly off-screen. That is not what is happening in the video. In the video here the exp is getting lost, never to be found again.

[@RuneKatashima]

But it did get found, when he leveled up later. Someone else pointed out he got two attract orbs and it sent the one with all the exp off screen. Even if they're wrong, it's undeniable he got it. @@danielduncan6806

[@BigGahndiLobster]

Watching the chest just sit next to you in these runs is so hard!

[@harlekkindreitausend249]

„The main difficulty in this no movement-challange is not to move“ big brain time 😊🤙

[@melvinISmischievous]

I got inspired to do this run myself. First attempt I got the green reaper at minute 4. Second attempt I ended up winning. I got 0 chest but my build was garlic, silver wind, magic wand, victory sword, night sword and laurel. My passive where armor, attract orb, duplicator, pummarola and empty tome. My arcana was divine bloodline for that sweet sweet health. I stopped leveling up at the 20ish minute mark but I never died till the end. It was pretty fun doing the challenge myself while watching you play!

[@smittery]

Yeah, i just completed it first try with divine bloodline. Especially since you are unlikely to evolve many weapons, divine bloodline boosts the damage output of several unevolved weapons, it seemed a no brainer

[@batcrow6224]

Once I opened the video I started trying the challenge for myself and am under the impression that early armor is really essential then having either mirage robe/victory sword/bone to get you through early game. Looking forward to what ideas Dex came up with

[@DexTag]

Usually Mirage Robe worked differently or I am drunk. It would move out and cover a lot more area, meaning you don't even end up getting hit unless you get heavily overrun. It turned into one of my favorite survival weapons in recent times because it was so effective at controlling all the enemies. But when you can't move it's a different story, especially in a case where you don't know what spawns. Armor is top tier though, 0 arguing against that. I have always praised it so I share the opinion. Not really as an item because the game doesn't require it, but more as a power up to focus on early on

[@batcrow6224]

@@DexTag Mirage robe was really nice the first couple attempts to get through the first few minutes but I swear that usually once you had enough amount mirage robe would start colliding with itself and expanding outwards. For some reason that doesn't happen when you try no movement so I have no idea what's going on with that

[@simplyhammer5105]

​@DexTag movement speed and weapon speed is usually higher.

[@unsweetenedfruit]

@DexTag not sure if they fixed it, but the issue with Mirage is that it does follow your direction. Unlike other weapons, though, it seems like it doesn't automatically interpret which way you're pointing when you pick it up, so since you never move, it just spawns them without any directional push so they just stack on each other instead. Definitely NOT how it is supposed to worm.

[@Zorgdub]

That intro had me laughing out loud. Also, Dex truly is the master of No Movement challenges.

[@FiksIIanzO]

That intro had _me_ shitting my pants. I forgot the dude even existed and then this video got randomly suggested to me A YEAR AND A HALF since that comment. Don't even remember writing it lol

[@emma1071]

It’s amazing that literally everyone forgets that divine bloodline doesn’t just gain health. It also adds bonus damage based on your missing health

[@firstnamelastname442]

59:51 i think the cats are triggering your victory sword retaliation, and because you have combo finisher it can reach far away enemies

[@SomeCanine]

I've watched so many of your videos, but 20:50 is the moment I hit the subscribe button. I'm crying.

[@khangle6872]

Funny that Dex pick victory sword almost everytime but never pick it, yet the winning game had the victory sword carry

[@DexTag]

Victory Sword only works really well if you have Bloodline Arcana with it, since it has a counter-attack that counts as retaliatory attacks. Victory Sword is by far not a bad weapon as it covers multiple things at once, but it's not outstanding in a singular field. E.g. if you just want to be safe, then a counter-attacking weapon that mainly acts after being struck is not good, especially when the enemy striking you is a boss that deals 1/3 of your HP as damage. The pre-evo Muramasa for example can at least lifesteal, which means it has use beyond just retaliatory damage

[@DrihunGaming]

the energy compared to the lackluster game-play, hilarious

[@Dra2502]

Damn, so much frustration with the new engine. But thank you for the very entertaining video!

23:47 Maniacal laughs of pain and suffering

[@rafaelspagnollo7241]

There's a limit of crystals that can be on the screen. After you reach the peak, crystals just wont spawn anymore. That's why that vacuum only gave you a single level, the experience was not accumulated from all the enemies, just from the first 200 or so. You can observe that you just stop leveling even when the enemies die on a very close range of, that's because they aren't dropping any experience

[@DexTag]

That's false. They still drop but get instantly accumulated into the gem furthest away, but with a certain distance at max. That's what I refer to as red gem, since well, it's red. As colors on the gems are determined by xp amount so it shifts to green and then into red.

[@jcmatanui204]

First vid I've seen of your so idk if you've figured it out yet, but there is a cap on how many XP gems can exist on the map. Since you didn't take mad groove to rearrange the XP, too many gems ended up outside of your range and all enemies that died after that did not drop any gems. This is why when you got the magnet, you started leveling up again at a normal rate. The game is not bugged or broken, you simply chose poorly and got unlucky on top of that. Hope this helps.
