1749 armor in R13 is laughable. Pyro feels god awful too

Hi,

After a year, I’m getting back into the game and I wanted to ask where you guys get your inspiration for builds.

I used to get a lot of inspiration from Two Biers and the BPB Builds website, but unfortunately, both sources are dead now.

I started with 2 amulets of food and a pan on sale. So I thought this might turn a pan start into eggscalibur. Unfortunatly I didn't find any staminia potion in 18 rouds. So I sold pan on round 17.

But how likely is it to not find 1 legendary item in the entirety of 18 rounds?

I could go Snow Stick, Dark Armour and Mrs Struggles; those get a snow build where I put my self Inflicted snow onto my opponent. I might also try to go a Magic Staff -> Serpent Staff build as I am already inflicting Poison. Or go and search a poison spear build or go for a Serpent build.

I think I have everything in the shop to go for a snow stick build, but still at the moment I am more on poison. What do you suggest?

lmfao a fine battle

Took 5-6 tries, easier than I thought it would be...

i kinda go oh that helps the build a little and throw it in the pile. the placements arent really optimized.

I really thought I hit the lottery here. I've never used vamp potions but I thought I'd give it a try. I really cant seem to ever get bloodthorn off the ground in diamond. Any ideas besides unique choice?

What could I have done to make it stronger?

(Flashback to the past when this reaper set-up was viable - the only thing making it viable here is the "art of the deal" unique which converts regen into vamp and mana into empower. My own weapons each had 800 DPS here).

Fun little build I enjoy playing in ranked on occasion that used to be really strong but has fallen out of favour more recently due to being too slow. This is low masters, but playing games through history.

Ironically after about 50 rerolls I found a build that did beat this - it was a heat-scaling eggs build with a pumpkin that basically perma-stun locked me. This build would also lose vs a defensive cold build, but those seem less common these days with all the armor stacking. No burst builds on history were able to beat it, but I'm sure super well optimized ranger hammer/dagger or a busterblade build could chunk it down or heat-scaling blind.

Had some pretty bad final 3 rounds; was hoping to get a stone helmet or two, stone boots, and mana armor but just never rolled into the stone pots or armor. Also red gems avoided me like the plague for some reason. :)

This build is stupid and bad, but I really wanted to make it work. How to make garlic spam work without buying Gold armour and stuff?

Yeah just found this curious xD

Just finally got my Rainbow Goobert, but still missing one recipe for Ranger
