Mid Game

Waves 8-15 maintain pressure on elites by utilizing your explosives and transitioning into survivability, ensuring your health remains topped off while continually dealing damage.

Late Game

Waves 16-20 should focus on strategic explosive use to handle the two bosses simultaneously. Ensure that you maximize the area denial to make dodging their attacks easier while dealing consistent damage.

Build Reasoning

This build balances the Multitasker's ability to use multiple weapons with the need for explosive area damage to efficiently manage the challenges of Danger 5, using upgraded damage synergies and survival strategies optimized for high-pressure encounters.

Why This Build Wins

  • Explosive weapons have high synergy with area control items, improving crowd management and boss killing efficiency.
  • The explosive focus fits Multitasker's ability to equip many weapons, enabling a varied approach to combat.

Danger 5 Notes

Danger 5 introduces increased enemy health and damage, which necessitates a heavier focus on crowd control and adjusted damage output strategies. The explosive weapon choice helps address this by allowing for wide-area damage against swarming enemies.
