do you guys have any tips for magma core?
the area just seems unfair
Ah so suddenly your thorns build that you were so eagerly spamming in the comment section before does not help you out at all so far into the game? What a surprise!
If you want to get past that area you either need to kill everything in one turn which is difficult without a bit of good luck or have both moderate damage output, plus moderate defense output. I would recommend you stack on armor pieces and aim specifically for the archangel armor and the paladin's plate because one adds +2 haste and the other gives you 8 armor which makes a difference since early on enemies can not hurt you at all, but once you arrive at the Magma Core it effectively reduces enemy damage by 1/3.
For Snakes and bats, you will either need a cleansing rag + heartstone gem combo or a My First Wand to counter the poison.
When it comes down to what type of weapon you should use, aim for a bow, a wand, cleavers, shivs or accessories that increase your damage output.
The Ring Of Doom is very potent in that department, and, with the assumption that you have a considerable amount of mana stones, you can dish out over 30 damage per hit easily which should kill anything under 3 turns. Spend money at a shop to buy one if you can.
It is an excuse and a bad one at that. I am decently certain you picked up 6 spiked helmets because you believed that thorns would carry you, which meant afterward that you would not have enough space to put in any other useful item.
The My First Wand build is so easy because you are almost guaranteed to find a mana stone after each battle, I think it is a 50% chance average and the wand itself is a common. Even when I did not need it I came across this item at least once per run.
I had one or two spike helmets a cactus and 3-5 roses over like 10 different runs dude. Actually I wasn’t spamming it I was telling people it would help with stuff like blademaster or axemen. Having 6 spike helmets would be bad because they would all cancel each other’s block out and I would be screwed.
Also by magma core I mean floors 6-9 and whenever I pick up an item to try and do a cool build with it and I drop it for something better like I drop an arrow for a cool sword and then I get the other thing needed for that build.
I have seen archangel armor ONCE and never seen paladin armor. Are you talking about plated armor with that one or is it some entirely different op item.
That it the end of this response. Goodbye.
3-5 roses, are you crazy?! They are worse in every aspect compared to the spiked helmets! At least try to get good thorns items like the scales or the coral, not roses!
Christ, I feel like you are a total noob rudely talking over veterans on the contents of the game because every single time you comment you say something completely absurd and occasionally inane. Just block me already, you are getting on my nerves.
