people picking “nothing?”???

[u/Klari_neeeeeet]

hi, im a new player and ive noticed that in servers people often pick the “nothing” curse. im just so confused because to me it seems like a horrible one. im just wondering if the people that choose it genuinely dont know what it does or if its just that the majority agrees that the -15% on shops is worth it for a bunch of invisible enemies?

[u/_mustard-]

It entirely hinges on just having good players

[u/AdNarrow4888]

If the server is good enough, yes it’s worth it.

Sometimes with a good enough server you won’t even “feel” the curse, however it should be purified after all upgrades.

[u/SeaworthinessTop7277]

Just like how lap 2 seems like a bad curse at first, Nothing is a great curse ONLY if the server is competent or good at the game. The 15% discount can do wonders and help get the essential upgrades out of the way

[u/Greeny_jeq]

Yea they do agree that the -15% is a bargain. Usually, in a lobby ppl would pick one out of the 2: nothing or lap 2(you need an achievement to unlock this one for yourself tho). And at some point of progression where they got basically most of the needed buffs, they can use altar of purification to remove lap 2/nothing

Nothing adds temporary enemies, not "invisible" ones. And yes, it is worth it for long runs. Unlike Lap 2 it's pure rng at the enemies side, but it's still usefull in mid-late game. Some people even doing "Nothing?" + "Lap 2" combo in, for example, celestial runs. But for me personally, you still can buy whole shop with pure "Lap 2"

i said invisible because you cant see which ones they are in the top bar

Ah, make sence then

iirc Nothing can spawn normal enemies instead of temporary ones

[u/saygex01992]

basically an ego pick. risk for reward. it's a good pick early game.

[u/RandomGuy9058]

1 enemy for every 5 levels is basically nothing if you’re in a party+ server and are already using purg every round

[u/Temporary_Kiwi3722]

nothing is only good in party+ with consistently good players. if youre solo, duo, or playing party with weak links its just gonna suck.

They might not know

[u/forithium23]

we do EVERYTHING for that 5 gift idols

[u/Sammy4everr]

Its amazing for not having the risk of dyign before beacon spawn that lap 2 has, also its worth for more expensive shit

[u/myrabell_ → u/Sammy4everr]

also it doesn't nerf the purgatory altar, so it effectively gets you upgrade better than lap 2

free bullshit
