Attack Speed icon

Attack Speed

Increasing attack speed directly enhances DPS, allowing quicker damage applications to enemies, particularly useful during boss encounters.

Early Game

Focusing on acquiring multiple harvesting items early, along with melee weapons that scale, will help establish a solid foundation for resource income and upgrade paths.

Mid Game

Focus on balancing material collection with surviving elites. Prioritize upgrades that enhance surviving capabilities while ensuring damage output remains high.

Late Game

Utilize area control through weapons and items built for crowd handling; manage damage avoidance against tightly packed bosses by utilizing distance.

Build Reasoning

This build utilizes weapons that drop or enhance damage outputs based on character synergy, effectively turning excess health into a damage multiplier while ensuring an effective path to sustainable materials throughout the run.

Why This Build Wins

  • Combining the Captain's Sword and Harvesting effects maximizes damage and material collection, creating a sustainable loop of upgrades and damage.
  • The Chainsaw’s additional bonus damage scales well with increased enemy density, ensuring high DPS during crowded elite waves.

Danger 5 Notes

Danger 5 brings stronger elite spawns and bosses; ensure weapon choices support crowd management and quick elimination to minimize incoming damage, leveraging items that increase health or regeneration when needed.
