ULTRAGUIDE | Core Mechanics and Core Sniping

Kept you waiting, huh?
I know this isn't the deadcoin video but I really wanted to get something out that was a bit more simple while that video was in the making. I'm still working on it but progress will be slow. I appreciate all the patience from everyone and especially appreciate the feedback and help from my friends!

I like how he's taking these videos as lessons, like he's teaching a bunch of murder machines basic math

[@onerxowns2202]

There are lots and lots of machine, and nowere near enough blood to sustain all

I've been addicted to nuking in the last room of the Meatgrinder to instantly clear every enemy, immediately opening the exit. I don't think I've played the level without doing that for ages.

[@ivyivyyiivvvyyyyvy]

This made me realize I've been doing the old strat (malrail > splitshot) this whole time lol

Had to get good at Core Sniping to Perfect Soul Survivor, honestly, got pretty decent at it. It's so satisfying to Nuke of all the eyes in one shot

HOLY SHIT I SHOULD TRY THAT

[@GHyze]

Concise, and with great overlayed graphics! Lookin foward to the coin guide

[@ShiningOmega]

This sort of thing is genuinely some of the best advertising Ultrakill can have, at least to a certain type of player which UK is tailored well to. Showcasing mechanics like this is amazing. Awesome video, Herb. Haven't played in a bit since Greed came out but I love to see it.

[@newman_real3079]

Do NOT abbreviate ULTRAKILL

[@justingimei3590]

That schism transition 👌

[@ImDaRealBoi]

While waiting for Act 2, I decided to practice consistent core sniping in combat. Goddamn it feels so sexy to use

[@sexmangaming]

another thing to note is that street sweepers will hit the core eject away, kind of like a malicious face but with more force pushing it away

[@HerbMessiah]

I can't believe I forgot to include that!

[@voidsoul8373]

its neat how streetcleaners can parry too

[@geoffreyprecht2410]

That transition at 1:58 is way too good.

[@inconspicuousrobot2685]

God this game slaps harder than it ever needed to

[@GoldfisH_]

funny, I usually set of a nuke right in front of me and then use dash frames to avoid the damage instead. You also get some heals from it. Great vid btw I didn't know about those dmg numbers.

[@TheRossomeGamer]

I've been waiting for this as core is my favorite alt fire and i hope this makes more understand how useful it is and want to use it

[@cocogus]

The thumbnails are great, as always.

[@kineographBOT]

The graphics and editing in this tutorial are very good. Well done. Gonna try this stuff out!

literally was looking for this yesterday and now here you are. Thanks, bro

Welcome back herb. Thanks for the tutorials.

Can we just talk about how well this video was made. Major props

[@infiniminer7677]

those transitions are wonderful, thank you

[@thiagomuntaner3928]

Nice tutorial, will definitely start using Core Eject more. Loved that transition with the schism on fire, top tier editing

Love the little editing touches you do.

core eject my beloved great vid and i especially love the thumbnail

[@thecone1529]

thanks for making a video about this, I use the core all the time and I never see anyone else do it. I doubt that will be true for long and I learnt some new synergies

[@goorila-lw4bu]

1:58 he though he could sneak in the coldest transition in the ultrakill fanbase

[@gneu1527]

Using core eject in 0-3 was possibly my worst mistake, except in the room behind that rock wall.

[@prinnydadnope5768]

Thanks for the edit, it's really neat

[@wend7415]

Now Core shotgun might be my favourite shotgun types, sounds really fun to nuke dozen of enemies with this rather than just punching pumped shotgun, thanks for the guide!

[@debatableultrakill]

core eject! my favorite :)

[@TheRealGears]

Ive been underestimating these little bomb guys.

[@Kaiser25]

Dope content, loved the transitions

[@TheAbyssalStorm]

This guide will also be useful for the new rockets since they share many of the same properties as the core eject grenades. Though there are some differences.

Can you make some guide videos on other weapons and their alt-modes? Like the nail gun? I'd like to know more about their mechanics, tricks possible exploits etc to make my gameplay better. I really enjoyed your coin-mechanics video which got me the idea for this

I would like to! I've got other stuff going on atm but hopefully in the future.

Hey Herb, great video! Do you have any tips and tricks for the new buzzsaw weapon? I can't think of a single time I'd rather use it instead of the default ones, so could you show me where they're viable?

[@HerbMessiah]

The saws are really great for fodder groups and trap setups. It's something you'll enjoy more if you like a trapper playstyle.

Hey herbmessiah: How possible do you think it would be to kill Minos prime with nothing but slams and the grapple arm specifically, on standard? (I fear violent may be impossible lmfao)

[@pseudonymousguy3715]

I think someone already did it grapple only, I'm not sure which difficulty thoguh

[@xperiorTR]

gaming

[@FuzzyPicture]

So is the comparison to P-boosting just that if you want to take advantage of any of a c.e. shot's properties, use c.e., but if you only want the quick 3.5 damage with a little a.o.e. then you use a p-boost?

[@CherryTheFeminineFeline]

the music at the end makes me sleepy

[@Ya_boi_jiyu]

Hate to nit pick but at 2:49 you said that the nuke was the biggest explosion in the game, but that title should go to the Easter egg stalker explosion in 4-2. ( Still an amazing vid tho 😊)

[@Evillittleman]

Mr.Herb how do you do the boost with the malicious railcannon is it the same as what you showed us or is it something else?

[@abdulhamidisavunmushamur8872]

I'm writing for a new tactic I just found but that I still can't do it. While in cybergrind I somehow found that there's way to instantly recharge your railcannon. I found this glitch while trying to nuke the shotgun core. I had sucked at it and had kept accidently doing it by electro railcannon and not malicious railcannon because it had been on the first place in order to charge my coined bullets. Then I noticed that my malicious railcannon was already charged when I clicked on 4 again after I had left cliekedand confused. I did it this railcannon instarecharge a few minutes later. I tried to figure out how I had done this but I suppose it's possible for me to do it only by accident. Is it possible for you guys to figure out how to instarecharge the railcannon?

[@tuckergymnest0]

Lol, I thought this was "core" as in "basic" so I didn't watch it. I didn't realize until I learned it was called core eject.

[@HerbMessiah]

You know I didn't think about that, switching up the title to add grenade would probably be a good idea. Glad you finally got around to watching it!

[@snacks_v1]

which should i keep first, da electric railcannon for coin adding or malicious for da nuke?

[@HerbMessiah]

I do the MalRail on 1 personally

hmm, though choice
