Idiot here, what's the optimal way to defeat hard 2? Im trying to gachikoi all characters but I always have trouble with this stage. Do I go defensive? Do I rush collabs and dodge the whole way? Item builds would be greatly appreciated, preferably something that works on multiple holos.

If you havent beaten it on any holo yet then try to beat it with a defensive character like Kiara or Irys. Having that first win under your belt is massive.
If you have then just max out your shop upgrades and focus IMO on attack and offense. If you aren't confident in that stage and you build defensively / balanced, you just tend to get swarmed.
Also halu is your best friend. It makes the first 5 mins harder, but the extra exp, stamps and anvils and stats make the rest of the run much easier compared to a no halu run

>> No.56001650

The wall in Hard 2 is usually defeating Nodoka. You can breeze through the whole 20 mins but still get fucked by Nodoka if you don't know how to deal with her. If you still aren't sure how to do it then just make Dragon Breath and try keeping her just barely on the edge of your screen.

Special charges 30% faster, and when you use your special you get a +50% boost to all stats for 10 seconds with a 30 second cooldown. The actual weapon seemed a bit unimpressive to me though, looked like it completely lost Concerts knockback which was the main reason to take it, and while it shits projectiles all over the screen they didn't seem to deal particularly good damage for something that needs a 19 level investment. Though it's obviously way too early to properly judge it.

When I ran out of content I tried Halu Endless there with every character and ended up making 30+ screencaps of their "records", I'll thumb though them and see if there are any common threads.
Off the top of my head, what >>56001650 said. I distinctly remember Nodoka cucking me on several attempts, specifically because the way she spawns in fucks with most of the healing abilities and leaves you rudderless. So make sure you're adequately prepared for that sudden shift in circumstance.

Nodoka should be the only real barrier, so make sure you're including Dragonbreath/Bone Bros and Rap Dog in all your builds. Generally tanky builds with Horns, Meal, and Membership/Pillow work pretty well, but some characters do better focusing on avoidance with Headphones.

>> No.56004537

>>56002986
Honestly I don't think any of them should affect overall item builds too much since they free up the item slot once the super is made, you'll just either be taking the last one you want a bit later on or picking an additional one. The crowd control from Ice Queen or health and healing from Jingisukan might let you swap out some defence or healing items for more utility or damage though.
Overall the changes made to existing items along with the new ones should have a way bigger affect on what you're picking than the supers will.

K some notes:
>everyone has Halu, Glasses & Goggles, unless the RNG fucked me; they all synergized with each other, so DESU if you're not going for Halu runs the other two might not be vitally necessary either.
>Full Meal is the MVP of the game's entire arsenal, I only excluded it above because it's not universally necessary. Some characters heal too often to need it, or don't scale off of healing amount, or are intended to avoid hits in the first place, or simply got a lucky Super Pillow beforehand, or are Korone
>...Oh yeah shit I remember now: I was testing the viability of Eldritch Horror. That might've been why I defaulted to Full Meal every time instead of mixing it up with other defensive items. Worked like a charm, across the board. You always have enough passive healing coming in to keep you alive 'til the Yagoos, no matter the character (unless you become too comfy from the security it provides and just plain get sloppy).
So yeh, " something that works on multiple holos"? Eldritch Horror & Full Meal.

How are you supposed to build Bae? Weapons are pretty universal, but what items and stickers do I actually want to not die on 2H? I can't tell whether I should be trying to tank/ ult spam, stack dodge/ crit, or just pray for shackles and pile up damage.

>>56004415
Cuz it's a one-and-done get with a fucking broken effect. Only 3 other items outright double a statistic, and 2 of them only do it after 5 level ups. It's easy mode.
Also it's not a broad-stroke must-have for healers, Okayu & Kiara are the prime examples of it being a wasted slot due to HOW MUCH they heal themselves. It depends on the specifics of their kit. e.g. Sora should always have it since her damage is tied to the amount she heals, whereas Fauna never needs it cuz her DPS procs purely off of the frequency of heals.
>>56004882
IIRC I was experimenting a bit with each characters kit & trying to find items perfectly suited for them, so most of the messiness was fully intentional. It's no fun doing the exact same loadout every single time.

Now I might add either Coat or Glasses as my accelerator all depending on what the RNG gives me

>Limiter/Milk
I like pick-up range letting me stay in one spot centralize all my drops and ensure I get all EXP without having to spend time chasing. AOE from Milk is also something I cant live without on most characters

>Energy Drink/GWS/Mask
Idea here is these are my offensive items. Haste Crit and raw damage depending on what I need without any critical downsides. Variation on the last slot based on characters like Sora or going into Hard and wanting a Daki vs bullet hell

This has always worked for me on all difficulties but im excited about what could change now with the update. Finding all the new things that can work makes my autismo senses go wild even if its just "RNG makes you go with Study Glasses instead of Kaela"

All weapons fall into the category of Melee(fist icon), Multishot(3 bullets icon), and Ranged(one blast icon). Character like Aqua has the skill that adds another extra projectile to Multishot weapons, and the new item Ninja Headband increase the damage of Melee weapons specifically. So for example Aqua will usually shoot out 4 Snow Flower Sake thanks to her skill, but once you make it into its super collab variant it will most likely lose that property.

Yeah I think the go-to strat was just to get to 100% CRIT asap & coast on that juicy x4 damage boost. You CAN build around Ult spam, but it lasts so briefly for such a long windup that it'll just distract you IMO. Focusing on making every single hit hurt is more effective.
So if you're simply trying to reach the 20min mark, GWS Pill is a must. MAYBE Sake too, if you either pile on so much DPS nobody gets near you or invest in a bodypillow. If the latter, you can throw in a Piki Piiman too and intentionally run into enemies to charge your Ult faster. Likewise Idol Costume is OFC more useful on her than most, but not essential. Hope Soda too, albeit it'll actively work against Costume/Piiman so best to choose one route or the other.
Stampwise Crit Up is swell, since at 100% CRIT it's an unconditional damage buff (and more at Lv3 than the ATK stamp). Other than that just optimize her hit-rate. So any combo of Haste, Size, Projectile & Explosion.
Oh yeah and keep in mind she has literally zero self-preservation Talents (I think enemies are still harmful when upside down, even), so either stack so much outgoing damage that nobody can touch you, or save 1 slot for something defensive. Eldritch works fine too, but the mix-maxer in me doesn't want to outright endorse it since it has a high minimum-cooldown so clashes hard with her Ult.

Yeah. I'm uncertain if the lack of weapon type properties for super collabs is a deliberate balancing choice or not.

Vertical movement for the bullets that fire directly at you, orbit for the Undertale pattern. You can even stand still or orbit the wrong way in the second pattern since one or two hits won't kill you. 1H's and 3's bullet hells are harder because they fire randomly from all directions.

personally, i'm waiting because i have absolutely zero interest in doing maps that don't provide any challenge. i'd rather do five hard 2s or hard 3s than HAVE to do normal 1, normal 2, normal 3 etc because even if i halu gold farm it's still so easy i'd rather not play at all/use a trainer. if i have to actually play the game as intended with upgrades, grank etc i will enjoy my time.

The shop is a progression system. The G Rank is a progression system. Gear is a progression system. Gachikoi is a progression system.
Leveling up inside a fight isn't a progression system, it's an inevitability every time you play. Playing an RPG and making use of its progression systems just to get to the end of the game and none of the enemies or bosses provide any challenge because you used those progression systems is actually fucking retarded.

At least, to the point where it's not worth it.
Take Choco. Her Awakened weapon has an added effects for when you land hits with the tip. If you have 4 collabs going you're gonna hit a lot less enemies with that.

Because they're completely broken. It's kind of perplexing to me that Kay Yu seems to be taking the leaderboard stuff seriously yet in the end it's going to boil down to super item RNG just like the time stage currently is.

After extensive time watching Holos play the game, it seems to me that a vast majority of deaths come from making dumb decisions or being oblivious about the environment which puts the player in a bad spot and then they just get chunked down faster than they can outheal the damage.

Nurse's Horn is the best healing item in the game for dealing with chip damage or minor fuck-ups but it's useless against bosses that despawn enemies and offers zero effective health gain so it's useless for big fuck-up moments. For any character that has built-in healing it's nothing special and any defensive item that offers actual effective health would be better.

NTA but yes though you have to build up to it. The quantity and value of fish you get goes up substantially with each rod. Once you grind your way up to the Golden Rod you are flooded with fish.

It's worth noting the amount of currency you get just playing the game has been increased overall. A typical stage clear with maxed Halu used to be ~20-25k. The Greed stamp made 100k+ per endless possible with IRyS. In 0.6 you can break 100k in stage clear mode with any character assuming you get the coin farming items and Reine has overtaken pre-nerf IRyS due to her special. It's pretty retarded that fishing is so broken and the feature that was actually added purely for passive coin income amounts to a whole lot of nothing. By the time your workers are leveled and bringing in respectable income over a long period of time you could be printing money with the Golden Rod.

You can move during it so it works as an escape.

Sora will change a hell of a lot more because you can’t just rank damage for infinite special anymore, healing during it for more special. Mio at least has built in special generating skill.

Because ever since the Steam announcement HoloCure has gone mainstream. Last I checked he said over 200,000 are waiting to play the game which is substantially more than whoever played it from the itch.io download. It's no longer a game seen as just a game for Hololive fans.

>> No.56118913

When you're doing infinite you take it anyway because you'll get more than enough levels to offset the crit loss. If you're not doing infinite you take it because it's very low investment and crit doesn't become a valuable damage stat unless you take and build multiple items to boost your crit rate.

For any character not built around crit you need to take both GWS Pill and Sake and have Hope Soda for crit to outperform Gorilla's Paw. That's a whole lot of levels on top of gimping your special usage just to outperform what you get from three levels for Gorilla's Paw.

This is simple math anon. If you're not playing a crit character you take Gorilla's Paw unless you have some obsession with dumping excessive levels and wasting three times the item slots for a very minor damage gain.

Because my original point was that you'd rather pick Face Mask rather than Gorilla's Paw. Face Mask gives 1.3 multiplier, 10% Haste(2 Haste Up levels worth), and can't be upgraded. Gorilla's Paw gives 1.3x multiplier, -20% Crit(-7 Crit Up levels worth), and needs 2 more level to max it. Why shouldn't I just pick Face Mask and GWS Pill(9 Crit Up levels worth, 3 levels to max) and still have a way to increase my DPS ceiling by picking Crit Up upgrades instead of getting Face Mask and Gorilla's Paw for total of 1.6x multiplier but having no more way to increase my DPS after that?

Even with that, the armory is to bloated to guarantee you are going to get the item you want.
For example, items that I usually delete trying to fish the 'good ones':
>Chiken Feather
>Uber Sheep
>Full Meal
>Credit Card
>Study Glasses
>Credit Card
>Devil Hat
>Just Bandage
>Limiter
>Supper Chatto Time
>Stolen Piggy Bank
>Knightly Milk
>Bounce Ball

>BL Book
>Idol Song
>Headphones*
>Piki Piki Piman*
>Kusogaki Shackles*
>Inyection TypeAsacoco*
>Nurse's Horn*
>Plushie*
To me there is no reason to pass over a perfectly good item like Gorilla's Paw, unless you are planning to do a 30+ run for a theoretically better setup that maybe I can't build up.
tl;dr: Gorilla's Paw works very well in the setting of a Halu 5 Stage or a Endless run.
