Attack Speed icon

Attack Speed

Faster attack speeds allow for better damage output and control over the battlefield, especially in crowded situations.

Early Game

Focus on collecting materials while selecting upgrades that prioritize Max HP and damage. Use the first few waves to build up on Alien Eyes while securing Acid for HP boosts.

Mid Game

From wave 8-15, shift to aggressive item collection and use Captain's Sword or Chainsaw to fend off challenging elites. Prioritizing Blood Donation and other HP-centric items will sustain survivability.

Late Game

Prepare for dual bosses in wave 20 by focusing on health regeneration and damage output. Deploy all weapons strategically against both bosses to ensure they fall quickly while maintaining distance.

Build Reasoning

The build leverages Well Rounded's inherent strengths, maximizing health and DPS output while ensuring sustainability for the higher waves of Danger 5. By escalating damage through weapon synergies and item effects, this build guarantees adaptability throughout the run.

Why This Build Wins

  • The Captain's Sword and Chainsaw benefit significantly from increased Max HP, ensuring high survivability while dishing out combined physical and explosive damage.
  • Blood Donation synergistically enhances damage output through harvesting while the Acid and its HP boosts fortify the character, creating a deathstorm of efficiency.

Danger 5 Notes

Danger 5 introduces more difficult enemy patterns and stronger elites, thus positioning and evasion become critical. It’s crucial to use the increased speed to reposition effectively against threats.
