Ultimate Lifesteal Melee Build | Core Keeper 1.0

[@Tapangking]

Who wants moar lifesteal?!

[@rjay6048]

Finally someone made a vid about lifesteal build! As for the endgame build.. best to use are Fusion Chunk Necklace, Atlantean Worm Rings due it has additional damage and Trinity Heart due the large percentage of HP recovery per second, even this accessory isn't a lifesteal.. still it makes you very tanky!

[@rjay6048]

For the armor, using full set of Solarite for more life on melee hit. And I'm pretty sure that the Stormbringer is by far the most powerful due to its high power, range and its ability, chain lightning due it hits multiple enemies up to 3! Of course the Pharamoth is good but it only increases physical range damage and dodge. Owlux stands out for me due it increases movement speed and damage. Skills that I put for my pet are 3x Triple Trouble and 2x Crane Style. With this, not only you're hitting them by lifesteal but also balances the offense and defense!

[@Tapangking]

Atlantean worm rings still fit the theme, the boss is still a pain in the butt though. I was looking at Trinity Heart but I realized it was too end game but yes, the health regen really makes you super tanky!

[@erwincandelaria5438]

Technically, the fastest melee weapon is the Stormbringer, but that's basically for the end game. So daggers are the go-to early on.

[@Tapangking]

Spot on. I want people to enjoy the whole journey. Some people like melee game style and yes this is for people starting out.

[@nykSouthern]

Thanks for this build! I have a Ranger-Melee character that's gonna be happy to try this. Also, nice presentation, direct and short, no useless remarks and clowning, good video.. I also appreciate showing the best foods for the build, like the icing to a cake, it completes the whole guide.

[@Tapangking]

I respect everyone’s time but I also don’t want to miss any information, so this is the pace I went for. Thank you for the kind words, this means a lot to me. Enjoy the build and let other people know about it. Have fun!

[@crazedhark5200]

want a "one shot" build with musket! :D

[@Tapangking]

Uh oh, sniper build??

[@capsulefor2005]

I have been using this build since early game and I got to say I really like it , but I got to a point where I have a stormbringer and I tried to look everywhere for a video or some document that would do daggers vs stormbringer because as you said it kind of defeats the whole point of melee and I wanted to know if there is extreme difference between a life steal galaxite dagger build and a stormbringer build ? if stormbringer is so much stronger I would have no choice but to switch which really sucks. I may also suspect that this stormbringer is kind of bugged when it comes to its displaying the damage has been done but the mob isn't actually taking full damage. I am thinking about just using a dagger and utilizing the "melee" aspect but I still don't know what's better.

[@Tapangking]

The Stormbringer trumps everything else, it is right now currently the best weapon. Yes the Stormbringer has a damage bug, most of the time with certain enemies, you won't even deal damage. I made the lifesteal build so that people can enjoy melee enough up until end game. Just try it out yourself. :)

[@capsulefor2005]

So you think that even with that bug its still the best weapon damage wise ?

[@capsulefor2005]

Yes I am currently using the life steal build 😄 Untill I found out about the Stormbringer and it got me confused so I wanted to comment in order to get your advice.

[@capsulefor2005]

Oh and last question if you may , do you use this build or any other dagger build yourself or off camera you use strombringer?

[@Tapangking]

Even with the bug that happens (almost everytime) with assassins in the desert and urschleim, yes it is still the strongest. It has both mobility and consistent damage output and can damage multiple targets. I use a mining build to clear out my map, that’s generally what I have been doing right now since I have unlocked all achievements and bosses from the game on hard mode. But occasionally i use the lifesteal melee build using the knife to just bully the titans hehe.

[@YUKriptiX]

So i presume there are better "End Game" style builds right? I love Lifesteal, don't get me wrong, but we would lose quite a bit of damage this way right? Isn't just core commander set with trinity + stormbringer + ancient gem ring and neck + topaz ring a good end game style? Or are there better options for end game? I'm making this lifesteal build right now to try it out :) Love being able to leech my way through everything, gonna use trinity heart with it though.

[@Tapangking]

I think Stormbringer is just too overpowered that it is the end game build. Anyone can make this lifesteal build very early just by killing the Hive mothert. The build also has the ability to kill majority of the bosses. I would always want to offer multiple options to people. Some people like range, some people like melee. Works really well with Trinity Heart. I hope there are stronger bosses in the future so that we can really push these builds.

[@megoface13]

Is storm bringer better than the galaxite dagger for that build?

[@Tapangking]

It would work but you will have a totally different experience

[@megoface13]

@ thank you

[@nikolaiborodin9429]

Can I achieve the same if I switch dagger to stormbringer?

[@Tapangking]

Yes, the lifesteal still works with the stormbringer. This build is one of the ways you can actually get to the stormbringer.

[@nikolaiborodin9429]

@@Tapangking I actually have stormbringer and full chaos armor already and have killed all three titans. however I haven't killed hydras and I have lots of trouble with alien arenas, my damage numbers are not even close to those demonstrated in various videos So I'm experimenting with pets, talents and food

[@Tapangking]

@@nikolaiborodin9429 You should check my Stormbringer video then, that's what you need to kill the hydra's

[@TwistedFire85]

​@@nikolaiborodin9429skill tree talents have a major impact on damage in the game. You might have to grind them out to up your damage a massive amount. Even the cooking one is major because it makes your food buffs way better

[@sedih6417]

What build you use to onehit the wall at 2:12 ?

[@Tapangking]

Check out my ultimate mining build video, i am using a galaxite sledge hammer.

[@sedih6417]

@@Tapangking thank you. ill check it out

[@JJJJ-ze5be]

can you make a ranged build?

[@Tapangking]

Currently working on one right now. I gotchu!

[@flossdaily9]

stormbringer hits more per sec than any dagger tho right?

[@Tapangking]

It does and will also work with the melee build but, stormbringer is endgame and technically, not in your face, gimme your money melee. Daggers just hit different.

[@kaylungreenwood6814]

curious why run the moth over the bird

[@Tapangking]

You can use an owlux or pheromoth, just as long as you get the attack speed %. Owlux for additional damage, Pheromoth for additional Dodge chance

[@awesomedudeplayz3950]

Doesn’t the fishing gear give you a higher chance to get fish instead of items

[@Tapangking]

Stats from the gear are getting double the fish, chance for higher rarity of fish, chance to not consume bait if any, chance to get a fish and faster chance for fish (and other things) to bite faster. In my experience, just leaving it for 10 minutes using the autofishing mod on any body of water yields me all possible non fish items that i can get almost 100% of the time. You can increase the chance by swapping with lucky rings, Maybe because I always play on Hard mode or because I just leave AFK fishing multiple times a day.

[@mrkvillegas6535]

How do I get the higher level versions? Mine are dropping item lvl 5 and 6

[@Tapangking]

Higher level versions of what exactly?

[@mrkvillegas6535]

@@Tapangking I figured it out you upgrade the items to that item level

[@mrkvillegas6535]

Also at what level of lifesteal does it start to feel good enough to withstand damage

[@ZLAVICX]

What about a mage build

[@Tapangking]

Sure! Let me cook something up. Thank you!

[@Marvmellow]

hello, who drops the ritual dagger?

[@Tapangking]

You can craft it on the Malugaz Statue (right side of the core) after you defeat Malugaz.

[@nugzeez2146]

wait why pheromoth instead of owlux

[@Tapangking]

You can use either, i just prefer the pheromoth because of the range damage, stacks with stormbringer

[@nugzeez2146]

@@Tapangking does it rly? i thought stormbringer counted only as melee

[@TheLordShiki5577]

you need more dodge rate %

[@Tapangking]

True. But I don't need to dodge a lot if I can kill the bosses quickly.

[@aduckonquak2139]

Crit build? 👉👈

[@Tapangking]

This could be something, sure i'll figure something out!

[@catfoodbob1]

Clearly you are forgetting the real fastest weapon, the drill

[@Tapangking]

LOL, imagine the Scarlet Hand Drill having decent damage, that would be the ultimate lifesteal!

[@catfoodbob1]

@@Tapangking theres a trait that adds your mining damage to the damage output

[@Tapangking]

@@catfoodbob1 Oh yes there is, you should check my Stormbringer video, that highlights mining damage as your primary source of DPS

[@TopdeckNuII]

obliteration ray/stormbringer have more attacks/second than daggers

[@Tapangking]

Obliteration Ray / Stormbringer are freaks of nature and super end game. They are technically the fastest “melee weapon” but they are impossible to get in the early game and takes the fun out of melee

[@TopdeckNuII]

@@Tapangking 100% agree, but you say in this video that daggers are the fastest melee weapons in the game and that's not true

[@TopdeckNuII]

Although with the amount of people pointing this out you probably did it to farm comments, in which case good job

[@Tapangking]

@@TopdeckNuII I don't consider Obli Ray and Stormbringer melee, it's programmed in the game as "melee damage" but really is a range weapon. I made a build that should fit the playstyle of melee, up close, you can smell the enemy's neck, melee.

[@BoulderGod]

This build is also completely useless against urschleim because he will one shot you no matter what and life steal cant save you from that.

[@Tapangking]

Killing urschleim with this build is going to be a challenge and i agree the lifesteal is useless against it.
