The Most Powerful Characters In Gaming Ever # 38 Ft. Shyguymask

Featuring Shyguymask!
This series is all about video game characters who have left me in awe at their power, whether it's the ability to survive a boulder falling on their head, colossal earth-shattering strength, sheer dominance over the game they're in, etc.
For a change of pace, as with the twentieth episode, rather than simply cover an extremely powerful character, we're taking a look at some of the most bone-crushingly, teeth-clenchingly, awe-inspiringly powerful attacks and weapons gaming has to offer...
Powerful can mean anything from making huge numbers pop up on screen to making the game a cinch. As such, the majority of the attacks and weapons featured today are practical as well as deadly.
Once again, I'm joined by Shyguymask, who has a few of his insanely strong attacks and weapons of his own to discuss.

I've tried making my text yellow in this video, somewhat as a way to differentiate between mine and Shyguymask's text, but also as a test. What does everyone think? Does it look better than white? Keep it this way or go back to white?

[@junojun722]

white

[@averytubestudios]

The black and white is iconic, but the yellow also looks nice. I prefer the black and white though.

[@kattamarcil]

I feel white more suits this type of channel, and synergises with your icon

[@BladeShadowWing]

I think the white text is better.

[@elizabethmosqueda3731]

Plus the thumbnail template feels...off. I still like it nonetheless but I hope that this doesn't become a usual thing

[@Shyguymask]

I want to play SOTN again just so I could re-experience the pure joy of slicing everything up with the Crissaegrim. Also, Terraria has a weapon directly based on it called the "Terragrim", having the same "fast slices in front of you while you walk" effect but MUCH weaker, for obvious reasons. Still one of the best weapons through most of Pre-hardmode tho, albeit extremely rare.

[@Cyansational]

Good to know

[@General_C]

Terragrim used to be called Arkhalis as a reference to the developer on the team. It got replaced in 1.4 and I'm honestly not too sure why.

[@NauyaWasTaken]

You should do a SOTN randomizer and see how silly your run gets.

[@rmzing]

Celebrationmk10 seed makes it pretty accessible, it seems. I read that it's bought from the Princess during a blood moon while on that seed. 25 gold is pretty steep for that game state, though.

[@reginangel_official]

dont forget the description "I didn't get this off a schmoo."

[@cactusowo1835]

Shoutouts to the real most powerfull character in gaming: Sergey, who is capable of sending a ridiculous amout of dmg boosters, and he only used his 0,0001% of his power

[@HeraldOfOpera]

He's literally just hacking the game, though? As amusing as it is to have that be what's happening in-universe, it still basically doesn't count.

[@themendorean]

Or the captain Which could literally destroy an admin in one hit

[@329link]

I cannot begin to describe how happy I was to see that thumbnail. More crosscode stuff is better for this world. Also great to read the comments and see people who love that game as much as I do.

[@k.w.6626]

I agree, more people should be talking about this game

[@Shyguymask]

ye

[@Exshem]

numbers go brrrrr

[@vitilio]

We can all agree that CrossCode has one of the best new game plus in gaming

[@k.w.6626]

Yes it does, I have played crosscode like 8 times it is so good

[@andreadann90]

Facts

[@Celestial-yq6hz]

And it’s hysteric how the characters react to your new game plus, for example: Apollo goes crazy

[@Terranigma23]

Best game also ahah.

[@Chronobus]

20:51 My favourite part of the video. Rikku gets auto life and Penance just slaps her back down.

[@alexursu4403]

Ainz being isekaid moment.

[@Jordan3DS]

The thing about Disgaea is that it's a joke on other RPGs always trying to be "bigger and better" in regards to stats and animations, so it makes every animation insane and every stat super high intentionally as satire (same thing with the character designs, it's all one big joke at the expense of RPGs and anime). So when you say that the stats are so high that they have no meaning, that's literally the point.

[@Jordan3DS]

@@lazyryan3766 Sorta, yeah

[@MrEvilbyte]

Seriously, that Gastropolis has more HP then even Tyrant Baal from Disgaea 6. Which is saying a LOT. Especially since Disgaea 6 multiplied the big numbers the series is known for by like 10000x.

[@Blayne06]

Normal Baal, maybe. Carnage and Rakshasa Baal laugh at that notion. Especially since each one revives with new mechanics.

[@thefrostbite1135]

I only started playing CrossCode recently and I love nearly everything about it (except the 2d platforming) and the Gastropolis has been my favourite moment so far by a long shot (outside of teaming up with a certain someone afterwards). It's so meta and it's a little bit anime-y but the whole vermillion wasteland section was an absolute treat. Still need to finish sapphire ridge, but I don't see how this game could get much better than that.

[@switchboxplays]

Small spoilers: but you get to do it again at a later point in the game

[@llamaboioflusatia]

Challenge run: beat the Gastropolis without attack buffs

[@angeldude101]

@@llamaboioflusatia I just did some quick calculation. Since CrossCode uses Javascript, the numbers are probably represented as 64-bit floating point, but that can only represent exact numbers up to 15 digits. Gastropolis's HP has 20 digits. You'd need to do at least 20 thousand damage in a single hit for it to actually do anything, as anything less than that gets rounded to _zero._ Even then, you'd need to hit Gastropolis about _8 quadrillion times_ in order to kill it! Yes. Gastropolis has so much HP that the game physically cannot represent the numbers less than 20 thousand away from it.

[@llamaboioflusatia]

@@angeldude101 nevermind then, what in hell is that healthbar

[@DiegoG2004]

26:18 19 digits So Lea dealt 2.24 * 10^19 damage in one charged bullet and two uncharged ones. The power of exponential growth indeed.

[@azusattack]

So glad to see some CrossCode stuff!

[@Cyansational]

Am i the onli boi who.dunno what crosscode is?

[@azusattack]

@@Cyansational No, I'd say it's a relatively obscure game. It's a pretty good one though.

[@Kittycat7070-]

fun fact, crosscode is there because shyguy asked for ideas and he said "ingame hacks/cheats are included" and my mind immediately went to sergey hacks, and that's how it got in

[@Cyansational]

@@azusattack ah

[@MrEvilbyte]

Funny thing about Zanmato is, you don't even need to pay millions of gil to see it. Once you know the tricks (and grind Yojimbo's compatibility up), it's quite easy to use. It's even possible to Zanmato Penance by paying ONE GIL! Granted the best possible odds of that happening are like 20% (?).

[@brasilballs]

not gonna lie, this crossover was probably the best thing to happen these past months

[@PukiLynx]

When you talked about how stupidly high the numbers in Disagea can get I immediately thought of EBF5 because I remember I once edited my save file to give my 999 of every item and when I used all of my steroids my stats were insanely high

[@Shyguymask]

I remember when I tried to import my Steam EBF5 save to Kongregate version to get achivements. It ended up messing up my game and when I tried to attack a slime it did over a billion damage or more. I instantly got at the top of the "Max damage" high score tab then had to mail kong support to remove it lmao

[@PukiLynx]

@@Shyguymask damn dude that's nuts.

[@ericb3157]

reminds me of something weird... in my copy of the SNES game "final fantasy 3", Relm's "sketch" move frequently glitches the game in the second half of the story, depending on which enemy it's used on. but ONCE i got a GOOD glitch that gave me 99 of every item, including unique weapons!

[@Perseus3248M]

[@ArcadeStriker]

[@maglev957]

During the Vampire Knives segment I was thinking about Item Asylum, then lo and behold...

[@kamilslup7743]

Note for item asylum: back then you didn't die from bobm and bobm on a stick (the bobm on a stick was super OP back then)

[@oohfun241]

I'm a simple man, I saw CrossCode in the thumbnail, I click

[@k.w.6626]

same, I haven't watched the video yet but I can't forget that boss so I already know how this is gonna go

[@grafeugenius]

I like the gastropolis fight. Especially when you are doing a Sergey hack run. Makes the entire thing very amusing! Best of all, the final boss will actually compensate for your massive cheat damage! Crosscode is fucking amazing fun game!

[@MSOGameShow]

The one problem with the Vampire Knives is that you can't get them if your world has Corruption as it'll only appear in worlds with Crimson.

[@VulpesHilarianus]

Regarding the Crissaegrims, I once spent so many hours leveling up to 99, with full God's Garb, double Rings Of Varda, Dragon Helm, Twilight Cloak, and double Crissaegrims. I beat Dracula in four seconds. That's for *both forms*, excluding the cutscenes between them. For reference at level 60 you can beat him in seven seconds.

[@buzzlightyearpfp7641]

i love the gastropolis fight poking fun at absurdly large numbers in rpgs

[@MangelMurguia]

27:08 Lea, why do you do so much damage?! Than moment alone made me want to play that game Also, Lea's face seconds before is the one from someone who despite being powerful wants so much more, It's great.

[@TsukiZer0]

You get used to it.

[@dblczx6819]

You'll have to beat the main game first before you get access to that particular mode... not that doing so is a grind. I'd say it's well worth your time.

[@TsukiZer0]

@@dblczx6819 Yeah, but before NG+ it's possible to create busted builds. Lightning and Wave have very devastating high level Arts.

[@dblczx6819]

[@reginangel_official]

FINALLY SOME CROSSCODE STUFF

[@BeesOfInk]

Ayo, two of my favorite game analysis/challenge KZbinrs! This should be interesting!

[@TsukiZer0]

Aria of Sorrow: Lubicant Soul (Gain strength as your HP lowers), Spoiled Milk (takes your health down to 1), Valmanway or (if you prefer to play safe) Red Minotaur Soul (Swing a giant axe) = shred everything that moves. And in the romhack Aria of Sorrow Alter there's the Excalibur (free from the stone) and The Void: Both weapons hits multiple times for a lot of damage. EDIT: Oh, a little more: in World of Final Fantasy you can exploit Behemonster (a Mega Mirage) to do ABSURD AMOUNTS OF DAMAGE that can trivialize even the super bosses and Shantrollto. How? Simple: Meteor Counterstance and Defend until you have 1 HP (thanks to Last Stand) and 4 AP left. Then use Revenge Blast and deliver the PAIN TRAIN. With Iron Giant you can use Mighty Guard and keep following up with either normal attacks or its other abilities. This one is super tanky and strong! As for Bahamut: Flare twice and Touch Down for maximum damage before the gran finale: MEGA FLARE. Due to how Mega Flare works, it will cause obscene amounts of damage whether you have low HP OR AP.

[@FilthyCasualty]

First time I see Roblox here and it’s thanks to ShyGuyMask. I even played Item asylum earlier today.

[@hanselbarlowe2575]

Lesson to be learned from Yojimbo is that money is the solution to all our problems, even if it's a cataclysmic end-of-the-world monster

[@Superbloxen]

[@plabcentral630]

The crossover I didn’t know I needed

[@Infindox]

Love your pictures for your parts lol

[@ShadeMeadows]

This is gonna be fun! Though i'm sure i don't know all the games much 👀

[@freddywilliams9837]

DQ9 sorta made Axes completely broken Helm Splitter enables you to lower an opponent's defense, making it super useful for boss fights, while Axes of Evil is a very useful group enemy attack. AND BOTH COST ZERO MP. Even the skills that cost MP are still useful, like Hatchet Man for metal slime hunts. The weapon's biggest flaw is that only two hidden classes can actually use it, but it's not as big a deal when you master it, as any vocation can then use it.

[@owennelson5814]

Yo, idc how short and negative it was, I'm glad you finally talked about Disgaea :D

[@twiinArmageddons]

[@Wings_Of_Nightfall]

Honestly when I saw how much damage I was dealing to Gastropolis nearby the end of the fight I was blown away at how high the numbers went. _And then later on I found out about a special… "modification" that blew that little moment straight out of the Milky Way._

[@k.w.6626]

are you referring to fighting gastropolis in new game plus when you have sergey hax on?

[@Wings_Of_Nightfall]

@@k.w.6626 When I fought him with Sergey's hacks. Would've said that but I wasn't at the part where it specifically showed what Sergey's hacks is.

[@astralronin]

Seeing CrossCode on this list makes me happy.

[@johnprice6271]

Fun fact I just found out: if you use Sergey hax, becoming fully powered will let you one-shot the boss. That's 160 quntilion damage in a single hit. Now that's scary damage for any player character to have.

[@averybruhman5060]

Apollo might went crazy by now

[@Man_Person_Best_Hero]

Tbh i expected the zenith to show up, but then again, that thing is basically a dev weapon with how broken op it is (seriously, it's basically a /kill against everything), but vamp knives? Yeah, those things are straight up unfair lol. I main melee, so the fact that i get to use a weapon that not only has actually really good DPS, but it also has ridiculous life steal is just *chef's kiss*

[@eduardpeeterlemming]

You and Shyguy are perfect

[@Dragonemperess]

Definitely going to look for Vampire Knives now.

[@bloodakoos]

epic collab

[@albertusaswin2012]

Most Powerful attack and weapon? I remember Digimon World 3 : Galacticmon's Ragnarok Cannon, can reduce our HP to only 1, even from 9999. Also Juggernaut battleship that transforms into the powerful Destromon.

[@ericb3157]

i know of many bosses that can knock you down to 1 HP. Kefka (final battle), Queen Zeal in Chrono Trigger...

[@SoldierMan755]

[@frayzard]

item asylum has since been updated, and the unparalleled best item in the game is now definitely the awp It 1-shots anyone, with perfect accuracy, from an infinite distance, and it's in the base game. You just have to get 5 kills with the generic sniper in one life to use it Speaking of which the generic sniper is an A+ tier item itself, so it'll usually be super easy

[@derthevaporeon]

The Roblox caught me off guard, but the fact that a game foregoes balance for fun in most cases, is something that vibes well with me and gives me joy.

[@thethinker7273]

26:58 I am now curious about a full playthrough with the Sergey Hax Mode.

[@Shyguymask]

It's pretty fun. They went out of their way to add many special dialogues and expressions exclusive to the mode. Apollo's rants when you one-shot him in the duels alone makes it worth it.

[@OhCrapI_He]

Another powerful attack in Terraria is Starlight, a rapier dropped from Empress of Light, which is basically a rainbow Crissaegrim with greater reach. I used it in a "True melee" challenge run where I only allowed myself to use Swords and Spears that didn’t fire any projectiles when swung. That combined with a powerful Tank/Mobility loadout (Full Beetle armor w/Shell, Brain of Confusion, Master Ninja gear, Fire Gauntlet (come to think of it, since Starlight doesn't benefit from Melee Speed, a Warrior Emblem would've been better), Charm of Myths, Empress Wings, and Soaring Insignia, all reforged to Warding for more Defense), I think it's safe to say Moon Lord (the final boss) was my bitch. I expected him to be tough, but I ended up defeating him 5 times in a row, never dying to him, not even once.

[@Jordan3DS]

At first when I saw Roblox I was like "why the hell is whoisthisgit talking about a kid's game?", but when I saw Shyguymask it made much more sense.

About Item Asylum "bobm on a stick" named melee used to be really op, like small damage, but high knockback, which was op on maps with open bounds. But then it got hit by what i like to call, "The Nerf Nuke", basically it got nerfed so hard that it became shit-tier instantly, basically it was the same weapon expect the user dies when it hits someone, i dont remember if i also killed the one hit by the heavily nerfed version, but i think it didn't, after some updates the "bobm on a stick" got a buff which brought it up to the balanced tier. From its beginning to the present, how it behaved was way different.

[@mauricesteel4995]

Hey Git, ever heard of a man that goes by Barbatos Goetia? in Tales of Destiny, he has a very interesting attack named WORLD DESTROYER, the amount of overkill it deals is VERY interesting.
