Why This Build Exists
This build leans towards crits and speed-based damage instead of relying solely on pure melee damage output.
Weapons
The Chainsaw offers quick, high DPS with a significant damage output that benefits from Speedy’s speed bonus, allowing for rapid engagements.
The Captain's Sword provides a solid mix of thrusting and sweeping attacks that takes advantage of the character's mobility and can deal high damage across multiple enemies.
The Scythe serves as a heavy hitting weapon with high damage potential, especially effective when evading attacks and dealing damage from unexpected angles.
Main Items
Boosts movement speed significantly while providing life steal that supports sustainability in the later waves.
Increases dodge chance, which will be crucial when facing fast enemy hordes; it also enhances survivability significantly.
Boosts damage considerably but at the cost of armor, which is manageable with Speedy’s high mobility.
Mitigates damage taken while enhancing overall performance; allows for aggressive strategies against enemies.
Increases damage potential as Speedy maintains speed levels, providing a damage boost that grows with the gameplay.
Upgrade Focus
Maximizing speed will not only put Speedy into a favorable position during encounters but will also amplify melee damage potential significantly.
Increasing attack speed allows for more frequent hits with melee weapons, which synergizes with Speedy's inherent abilities.
Boosting overall damage output is essential, especially when leveraging crit potential with agility.
Early Game
Focus on acquiring the Chainsaw and boosting Speed early; prioritize speed-boosting items in the shop to enhance mobility and life steal for sustainability.
Mid Game
Shift strategy towards stacking melee damage and attack speed; ideally, secure at least one upgrade for Crit Chance before engaging high health enemies.
Late Game
Prepare for dual bosses by utilizing ongoing speed to dodge and reposition; prioritize attacking one boss to whittle down health quickly using high DPS potential.
Build Reasoning
Maximizing Speedy’s inherent speed bonus to deal more melee damage becomes crucial. Given that Speedy receives +1 damage for every 2% speed, focusing on high-speed-boosting items directly enhances the overall build potency; the chosen weapons mitigate the natural armor penalties while capitalizing on the high-speed synergy.
