A Better Tutorial for Limbus Company

[@therealESGOO]

Yes, I still sound sick. It is because I am still sick. Subscribing fuels my path to recovery :) Alright. Two quick corrections since I did get some things wrong. Skill slots apparently do not have their own separate skill deck. I think playing Discard IDs for so long has skewed my perception of skill rotations. But it was still wrong, my apologies for that. ALSO for some reason, EGO passive only activates same turn if you have corroded entirely, and not via overclocking. I view this as a bug more than anything, but it is how it is. Missing these things is my bad, sorry to cause further confusion when the game is already so confusing. You’ll be given 300 lunacy as compensation uhhhh sometime :)

[@Flygoniaks]

You really raise a great point about how the tutorial REALLY hypes up Sin Resonance like it's the main gameplay mechanic, and it makes a huge difference, when in reality it's only something you play around _sometimes_ and often ignore. I think that may be because they were originally planning for Resonance to have a much greater impact on the strength of Skills in early development, but ended up reducing it later on in order to add some more complexity to the game than just "match the colors." But that's just a theory as to how exactly this happened.

[@BonkHazard]

Something you forgot to mention about overclocking is that it only removes the indiscriminate property when you have an extra amount of the required sin resources, attempting to use it with anything less will maintain the indiscriminate targeting and is just corroding without reaching max insanity.

[@therealESGOO]

To be completely honest. I forgot this mechanic existed until I was editing the video, mostly cause I don’t Overclock all that often. But yes, this is important to know that you CAN go into the negatives of EGO Resources by overclocking.

[@scruffles3838]

WAIT SO THAT'S HOW THAT WORKS??

[@BonkHazard]

@@scruffles3838 Yeah, basically if you want a safe overclock, the sin resource cost for the EGO is multiplied by, if I'm not mistaken, 1.5x. If you try to use it while only having the standard amount, the overclock retains the friendly fire. Pretty much mind whip but without the fishy reindeer.

[@32.baotin22]

The combat system feels like an overly complicated table top game

[@ARStudios2000]

I actually thought about that too

[@JakeGilz]

And tip for defense skill. If the same part of an abnormality targets the same ally. You can use dodge, and pray to god that you flip head and dodge all incoming attacks. And pay attention to the speed. Because I remember using dodge on higher-speed parts of an abnormality, and the Don just dodges all attacks that are lower than her speed (targeting at her) from other abnormality parts as well. I don't know if I remember correctly, though. Because dodging attacks is the most important thing when trying to go beyond Cycle 5 for fun.

[@AWrySmile]

Adding on to this, Dodge skills are reused if the die is not destroyed. In essence, it is possible to dodge every enemy attack with one dodge skill, as is seen in many ‘Solo’ runs.

[@seisosimp]

It's probably something they brought from Ruina since it's a similar mechanic. Dodge in Ruina never goes away until an attack goes through it, so dodge builds tend to use dodge dice on high speed actions. In Limbus, dodge also remains to be there so it makes sense to put it at a high speed enemy skill so it has the highest chance to dodge most if not all enemy attacks. For example, a speed 5 dodge skill can dodge incoming attacks of speed 4 or lower. This is why most EGO-minimalized solo runs have identities with dodge.

[@trevorBbracket]

PM's games all seem to have this "opening phase" where you have no idea whats going on and youre just blindly going through the content till something hard enough comes along to make you stop, figure out whats actually going on an learn your first lessons about what you should be doing. coming to this game immediately after beating ruina didnt stop me from also just playing with my eyes glazed over till like 3-10. bleh p.s. thank you for actually teaching me how gaining sanity even happens in the first place. doing line 2 without that information was incredibly fun -_-

More people need to watch this video. For a past few months I been seeing a rise in people saying that clashing isn’t that important when giving advice to new players.

[@Tsuki0ni]

You're doing the Lord's work, sir! I thought it was just me and the game was just waiting to tell me stuff that it was seemingly ignoring, but the stuff it told me just glossed over so much. It's like, here are the 3 sentences about clashing. And I'm looking at the HUD like, where the hell are all these numbers coming from then. I assumed it would eventually give me a graphic with a key/legend, but by that point, I didn't want to advance into the game with so much of the mechanics being some arcane mystery. Thank you.

[@Rob_TheRiv]

Oh damn, so I have started playing somewhere in the middle of season 2 and I have managed to beat the railway. I had a poor understanding about so many mechanics here, like offense/defense levels, how resonance increases damage, how attack weight works and that it starts with the nearest enemy. Thank you for sharing this knowledge.

[@TheLastCurryRice]

I do think one thing PM’s games tend to forget to do is to make the early game encounters part of the learning experience. Sure beating up some weak ass enemies might make you feel good but imagine if early fights did have a unit in wave 2/3 that had decent clashing power so you had to use defensive options or have an EGO ready? Even if you could win against them with the win rate button, having even a single slightly stronger enemy in the last wave of each fight would encourage some amount of team build consideration for EGOs or to be able tank through that one enemy a little better with resistances. Anyone playing on release might remember the Aida fight being their first pop quiz building for the right damage types, having the right resources for multiple sinners’ EGOs, and knowing how clashing worked in general since her multi coin skill would often obliterate your 1 coin skill that showed up as “favored”. People don’t learn from reading a textbook. They learn by being presented with a problem, solving it, and getting that Aha feeling that sticks around.

[@GoodSmile3]

I feel clever when I figure out the rules PM throws at us on my own.

[@del8556]

"Each Skill Slot has its own Skill Deck" This is incorrect, and I'm not really sure why so many people think it's the case. Every skill slot draws from the same deck, and once every skill's been drawn, it refills. For a simple way to prove it: if you check the skills of whoever gets the first extra skill slot, you'll eventually see their second slot have two S3s on turn 2 (one in the 'next turn' row), which wouldn't be possible unless every slot shared the same deck.

[@therealESGOO]

I think Discard has rotted my brain perhaps…I’ve been giving them second skill slot for so long now…regardless thank you for the correction.

[@rubyjohn]

An absolutely fantastic tutorial. You're doing Wings' work.

[@jester6819]

I feel like a very important mechanic you overlooked when it comes to EGO overclocking is "Proper" and "Improper" overclocking. Overclocking EGOs cost 1.5x the amount of every single sin resource the EGO originally costs, and trying to overclock an EGO when you have the base sin cost but not 1.5x the sin cost will result in an incomplete overclock. You can immediately tell the difference by the overclock symbol on the EGO - Proper overclock will have what looks like Dante's face, with the colour being more orange. Improper overclocks will be completely red instead, and have a red exclamation mark instead of the face. Improper overclocks do NOT remove the indiscriminate tag - it forces the full corroded EGO out of the sinner. It also causes a sin "deficit", causing you to go into the negatives for whatever sin resource you didn't have enough of for the overclock. Be careful about this - I have launched Ebony Stem at myself before, and it made me lose a winning fight. **Edit: Changed proper overclock description. I forgot it looked like Dante's face, not the front of the bus.

same XD but definitely wayyy and miles better than in-game tutorial

[@Late0NightPC]

Excellent video, it's nice to see that at long last, there's actually a digestible way to understand the core mechanics of the game. It's really baffling that there's so much that the game doesn't even bother to explain to you, and while "technically" it might be obvious to see and understand, such as using EGO below 0 sanity having a % chance to corrode, that's really only the case once you know about it in the first place. On one of your last points, this is just a rough guess, but I'd imagine the difference between skill power, attack power, and base power is going to be more important in the future when we start getting really gimmicky abnormality fights. The example that come to mind where it would matter are some kind of buff-wiping or power-negating effect in a battle. As far as I can tell, there is not a single EGO or skill in the game that has Attack Power up as an innate part of the skill itself, it's always applied as a buff given to that Sinner, however, Skill, Base, and Final Power up are innate parts of the ability, not a buff visible on the list of status effects. That would mean in a fight where the enemy has some sort of "The target of this skill/All Sinners are not influenced by buffs this round", Attack Power effects would be entirely negated whereas the other three effects wouldn't, since they aren't "buffs" that stack up on the status effect list, they are innate parts of the skills/EGO used that directly alter the power level. For Base power vs skill/final power, there isn't really a use for it as a direct power up buff, but since Meursalt's Regret has the whole "This unit's skill loses 1 base power and gains 2 coin power" passive, it may be a sign we will be seeing more base power modifiers in the future. Like, maybe there will be some EGO or ID that has a skill where "Under X condition, remove half of this skill's coin power and add that amount to this skill's base power", which would allow the skill to be a normal skill, but under the right circumstances it becomes far more reliable since landing tails wouldn't be nearly as dangerous. Something like that could even be the way to "save" single coin ID's like base Ishmael or GOutis, making them more reliable and less likely to get destroyed because they failed a clash on that 5% tails odds. I normally would say that it's probably just PM being rather messy with their early terminology, since the vast majority of newer IDs rely on either coin power or final power, and I think it's only Heathcliff's Telepole and Ryoushu's 4th Match Flame that even have Skill Power as it's own standalone effect. But even then I can't help but wonder. Ryoushu's 4th Flame has skill power as part of it's skill, but final power as part of it's passive, and the Star Luminary encounter in the Mirror of Mirrors has one possible outcome give +2 final power for the next fight, while another possible outcome gives +1 skill power instead. Having both skill power and final power up in the same Ego/Encounter not once but twice makes me suspect that PM has some weird, extremely specific and niche interaction in mind where the two will have some kind of a difference, and they are just exploring some ideas before they release it. And this is entirely speculation, I genuinely have no idea if I'm just way overthinking things here, but if Final Power works by being literally the final influence on power for a skill, it would have the niche ability to over-write certain other effects. Like, against Fairy Gentleman's Tipsy debuff which reduces power by up to 5, if you have a skill with a base of 2, and gain +2 skill, base, or attack power up, you'd end up with a final clash power of 0 since 4-5=0. But if Final power is genuinely the last influence on a skill, having +2 final power would mean you still have 2 power for that skill, as it's lowered to 0, then raised by 2. Of course, in that exact example, it would be nearly impossible to actually run into a situation where +3/4 final power would make or break a clash. But perhaps we'll run into the Scarecrow Searching for Wisdom again, or some abberation of it, as it's gimmick was a 4 dice page that could only roll 1s, but if it clashed against anything other than a unique page it's other attacks gives, it gained 4 power making it really hard to clash against. Maybe we'll see something like that but reversed, an Abno that sets your power to 1 and clashes with a 2 power skill, and so you'd need to take advantage of final power effects to win the clash.

This is generally the best way to do it, if you could only choose one. Uptying IDs makes them stronger at every point in the game, and often significantly improves clashing and damage.

I understand how overclocking works in Canto 3.5 I found out how passives and support passives work on Railway 1 (Shocking I know) I trained myself to naturally read every damn thing I see on a new enemy on Canto 4 (from 4-48, of cause) and try to use every sin affinities and dmg type as much as I can to deal more dmg. I built various team composition, know what and when to use skill and ego. Able to determined how skill would perform in a fight without even testing. Become a skilled manager on Railway 2. And today, thought I knew everything the game has to offer. I just learned how offense level works. How using EGO doesn't use up sanity before clashing. And how hitting multiple draw clash give you more sanity winning it. This game really need a separate tutorial mode.... and NEW EXP LUXCAVATION GODDAMNIT

Yeah, gotta remember to not worry about losing ego clash since then at least you dont lose sanity(ofc resource yes).

[@Traveller_Of_The_Galaxy]

We getting it in season 3 but not sure if with launch of it, gotta wait for sunday/monday update preview

[@theharvinator]

im watching this and i dont even have the game installed, hoping to start soon though it seems pretty cool

[@theharvinator]

240 hours in a month 😫 i enjoy this game

[@aorusdam856]

Just started and accidentally skipped the tutorial entirely. Looked up a guide since I'm lost...and I'm still lost...

[@NargaCat]

WOW FINALLY SOMEONE ACTUALLY EXPLAINING CLASHES PROPERLY THANKS.

[@theanswerisnowhere]

i made it to 3-21 without ever using a single ego because i cant read thank you for this tutorial (and thanks to a friend for sending the tutorial)

[@yodh_30]

7:26 "Let me give some examples, first..." *An ad starts playing* Gee, of course that's first... Edit: That aside, this video has been helpful. Finally managed to beat Canto 3. Screw Kromer.

[@tabnk2]

massive shoutout to whoever decided to do the subtitles and not have them be the same thing as the spoken lines

[@Goodbye_Eri]

I think I need to watch this 10x more time

[@catsquidcatoverlord9842]

Yeah I would say I didn't really fully understand a lot of the mechanics until early Canto 3 where I started losing consistently, so I buckled down and experimented and actually read the details on all the pages, and on the enemy, and got a decent idea for the systems, and I am someone who 100% both Lobotomy Corp and Library of Ruina, and is seriously contemplating another playthrough of Ruina with mods to make it more difficult.

[@alastor8091]

I think this game may be more than what i can handle.....

[@smolgoodragon1321]

Meanwhile I have about 300 hours and only just learned all the facets of evade because I did my first solo MD2 run the other day… gotta love learning something new every day fjgkgk I also didn’t really understand offense levels, but it makes a lot more sense now! Awesome video dude, I’ll be recommending this one to some of my friends who are newer to playing the game.

[@Flygoniaks]

[11:00] Small correction here that I think I should point out: Despite the game claiming you only gain SP when enemies of a higher level die, or only lose SP if an ally of a higher level dies, I believe all of these conditions that are related to the Identity's level actually trigger when a unit of EQUAL OR HIGHER level dies! So, if you kill an enemy of the same level, you still gain 10 SP.

[@kekwkekw5113]

hi, downloading the game real now, and searching guides/contents . found this video from recommendations. Thank you!

[@Geesaroni]

Finished Canto 5 yesterday and just found out, today, from this video, that overclocking EGO removes the indiscriminate tag. I discovered overclocking by accident while trying to cancel an EGO use and always kinda figured it was a desperation move where you didn't care if you hit your allies because you were losing already. Now I know!

[@NotHHPP]

Cleared Railroad 2, but still watching because I honestly just auto myself to victory

[@RenShinomiya121]

I played the game during release and figured out how the game actually works when i finally actually sit down and read stuff during Canto 3's final boss fight. At first i figured the stuff like clash power when i was watching my characters fight, but the more unexplained mechanics like sanity gain, offense/defense power and all that jazz, i just knew how they work after i beat Canto 3. I remember proudly sharing everything I've learned to my friends who are also interested in playing Limbus. Still one of the best experiences I've had in any gacha game, a lot of the mechanics also have changed over the months of this game's release, so i went here to see all the new mechanics being explained. Oh yeah, the sanity system changes during Canto 4 still screws me over nowadays lmao.

[@КонстантинДимитров-з4г]

My head hurts. Good tutorial btw.

[@Arowsrevenge]

I just got into this game because I'm on the tail end of Library of Ruina. And while I didn't understand a lot of the nuances of the combat, this definitely helped with understanding them a lot better. Now If I could figure out the venues and get a 5th non starter class/ID for someone that'd be nice lol.

[@MedioTaffy]

Me watching this tutorial again (I've been playing since launch and have everything except soupclair)

[@AQuestCalledMusic]

This was very helpful and well made. A follow up video for advanced stuff could be helpful as well. I would like to learn how to properly make team comps

[@Backupacc49]

Watching this for the Arknights x LC collab

[@emilianonuke]

I was in the tutorial and literally couldnt find what stage they wanted me to do next, all stages were locked for dome reason and im here like "do you want me to play or not?"

[@luisjorgerestrepomachacado4349]

now I finally understands how my attacks had more clash power than the base+coin power add up

[@Lizard_3]

i loved ruina’s combat because of simple yet decently complex combat but limbus just feels like i went from biking to flying a spaceship

[@betergrif9504]

i got all the way to the end of canto 2 without using ego cuz i deadass just forgot how to pull up the ego menu 😭

[@Meridianblood]

I don't know why they make the combat system for this game so complicated

[@DregunStash]

I don't know what's up with attack power up, but once upon a time, when the game hadn't released yet, there were coins that multiplied your power, the example I found was x2 coins. Maybe that would have made all these differently named powers have a meaning, in that one specific scenario, with that one specific coin type, but I guess we will never know. Thanks for the video, will make sure to send it to the next person who I force to play the game.

[@wingdingfontbro]

I do remember in the tutorial or something mentioning plus, minus, multiply and divide coins.

[@LTDLetsPlays]

@@wingdingfontbro maybe we will get multiply and divide coins eventualy?
