beetles secret OP

that elder lemurian animation is priceless!

Actually overloading worm has a hidden ability of negating your fps and making the game stutter so you disorient and die of this. I've seen magma worms do that too but it seems they have a lower power ability wchich requires more than one worm to be present in order for the fps to drop.

Mini Mushrums are weird. They're classified as a regular monster but they have the HP pool of a champion. They're absurdly tanky.

listen mister streamer, I don't think you realize how important pizza rolls are to me, so I'm going to have to ask you bump void revers up a tier

always remember: wisps were a mistake

Clay dunestrider, wandering vagerant, and imp overlord put in mid tier: Somethings wrong I can feel it.

Uh, Mr streamer, actually, You forgot to rate the artifact boss, worst tier list ever, unsubscribed, unfollowed, actual pepega

I feel like Minimushrooms should be bumped up a tier, their attack hits hard if it actually hits you and the ground AoE it leaves stays out for a VERY long time and hurts like hell + slows. For regular bosses I feel like Clay Dunestrider and Imp Overlord could have a tier of their own higher than the other 3 but to keep to your current tiers it makes sense. I think you could have talked about the different Twisted Scavengers and how they rank up against each other (Guragura and Wipwip are definitely more dangerous than Kipkip and Twiptwip ) but also not a huge deal. Great video man!

"Jellyfish are low-threat" *cries in MAAO*

When is thiccness tier list huh Mr Streamer???

Actually there is an Extra Low Threat special boss, the artifact reliquary

Did you guys know on the stage 5 map if you get a really difficult horde boss, you can just run over to the flying rocks and the rocks will knock them off the map and instant kill them?

I feel so vindicated that Vultures have made it up to high tier threat. Every time one of those bastards clipped me from a weird angle and ended a run or put it at risk I would always think about how they got stuck so low on your last list and being like "nah, that can't be right." Wasn't sure if they'd changed since that video, but it's good to see you finally recognize their terrible screechy horror.

Void Reavers also kill enemies in their blast radius, so it's good to take them out first if they're in a crowd. Also, I have more trouble with Beetle Queens than I do Stone Titans.

... as long as you're not standing completely still for some reason. Engineers: sweating nervously

I disagree about the mushrooms. I've been gigaslapped by blazing mushrooms hitting me with 20+ stacks of burning when I accidently go into their pool. They also have a tonne of hp and stick around to cause problems.

The true high tier: Your Australian friend hosting the server while you play in America. :)

Interestingly enough, Contraptions are, in game, considered light monsters like beetles and not heavy like a golem or Templar. Loader's alt grapple drags light enemies to you, and you to heavy enemies, and it drags contraptions to you. It suprised me the first time I saw it, because design wise, and gameplaywise, they absolutely seem like heavy enemies.

Until now, I didn't know the grovetenders spawned anything. guess I've been doing it right

Dangit woolie. I can't catch your stream often enough. You should totally do more gameplay videos. Very enjoyably 10/10

imagine dying multiple times to the fire trail left behind for elite fire beetles

Woolie, you're a legend. You're our personal wiki but better, because you make videos :)

I don't usually worry about jellyfish, but I think they become a lot more threatening on stages where they're the only enemy that spawns, like in the Void Fields. It's really easy for one to spawn close behind you, and because they only make noise when they're about to explode, I often don't notice them until it's too late to move out of the way. The normal ones do respectable damage on their own, but elites can put you in danger or outright kill you on higher difficulties.

Thank you for your videos, I love this game (RoR 1 was excellent too ^^) With theses videos I'm getting better at this game =)

Could we possibly see a video in the future about log entries for monsters and environments? I’m not sure if any other viewers agree but I only have log entries left to do in the game and I’d like to fill them out as fast as possible, but I do not know the spawn chances of radio towers or the spawn chances for special boss monster log drops.

8:23their debuff is called Beetlejuice iirc

when are you doing the full MAAO guide? i´m struggling to get consistent runs

the only enemy that kills me consistently is fire damage

As Acrid, whenever I leap onto beetle queen, i mistake my leap poison for the splash beetle queen made.

"Soulless probes don't dish out a tonnn of damage..." I'M SORRY WHAT

Jellyfish are obviously low threats but one exception is when your in the null void and they get some movement based items. Then they are extremely hard to avoid (it might just be me being bad tho)

Every strategy can be summed up as follows: sprint and jump around in circles while taking potshots at the enemy, occasionally hide behind a rock or something

Squashing Vagrants and Solus / Protect Units never gets old, easily my favourite bosses to fight with Rex / Mercenary.

...Beetle queen acid is superb at bypassing one-shot protection for a sudden run-over when you least expect it, though.

You could also do something like this with void fields since a bison with goat hoofs is actually pretty dangerous especially with focus crystals

THANK YOU FOR THIS

It's fun to get a couple shaped glass and crowbars as Bandit so you can just delete Brass Contraptions with your R ability. In fact, mass deletion with the R is just fun in general.

Hey Woolie, now that the clock/difficulty scaling stops in the void fields, should I be doing it in my runs?

What I find important to know about dunestriders is that their suction attack has a pretty hefty cooldown of 2 minutes before they can do it again. That's nice in general, but pretty crucial when you fight multiple of them with a melee character (and your items are bad). While the intuitive strat is to kill one boss at a time, it can be good to bring down the health about equally on striders, then GTFO. One strider entering suction will bring the rest with him which leads to two important things happening: 1. All the striders will cancel eachothers heal. 2. If they finish, you'll have a 2-minute window where you don't have to worry about ANY of them pulling the move and all still being at low health.

That Abyssal Depths gif is too true.

Good job!

Void ravers always get me in the chaos towards the end

Have you made any videos that go in-depth about Malachite and Celestine enemies? Those affixes are probably ones that end runs most often.

Lemurians are underrated. I died to lemurians about as much as to wisps. Their shots have large hitbox and make you burn, making them very dangerous in groups. Same goes to beetle guards and stone golems. They are not as dangerous by themselves, but in groups can kill you very quickly

you should make an updated version of this because now theres blind enemies, void enemies, gups and more

I like how badass are clay templars, like literally they won't stop shooting until you are dead

I love the animation hope I see it more

Lesser Wisps do actually miss sometimes to inaccuracy, but it is rare.

You know you're shit when the Lemurian is your nemesis

How did you remove that annoying genesis loop effect? Is it in Artifacts 2.0?

Blazing Brass Contraptions still give me nightmares.

one time 4 brass contraptions lined up and shot me at the exact same time, killing me instantaneously.

Hermit crabs belong in the ultra low tier with beetles since it's pretty much impossible for them to hit you unless you are standing still for a couple seconds with clear line of sight to the top of the map

I never took vultures seriously until i had a pretty good run activated shrine of the mountain and had a celestine vulture boss spawn yeah... they hit hard

watching this after the survivors of the void dlc, i have to say squid turrets CAN be terrifying enemies

I didn't know where else to ask, but is the alternate special for the loader out already on the PC patch?

i like how when you give the option to dislike, nobody does.

wdym the full release is coming faster than it looks? Im so hyped now

The Beetle Queen can be a little problem for the new players. The tip is the same as with the Imp Overlord - don't strafe in a circle but also forward/backwards to Beetle Queen, otherwise the poison spit will hit you

If you have any ranges attack and the scav doesnt have regen or teddies with the beads. you can damage him from a distance with acrid and the poision. jello % bases damage and just sorting ther with and atg or a royal cap. if you dont got for the first oblitorationyou get thwy have always seemes easy if you have any ranges attack.

Succesfull Acrid run coming in hot

I feel like greater wisps and brass contraptions should be swapped. But I'm also on switch, so things are different. I'd also swap grovetender and beetle queen, and maybe move down titan. Beetle Queen is the scariest first level boss, since she can straight oneshot you with her spreadshot. Extremely dangerous when your mobility and crowd control are bad.

Honestly the void reaver should be the least prioritized thing in a run because they aren’t a threat unless you kill them because of their instakill death explosion.

I have come from the future to say that overloading worms were been buff by making them more agressive an satanic on the 1.0 update, so better have that on mind next time.

I'd even put brass contraption in higher high threat just because a moment of distraction and bam your hp is gone. These things are ringing for your death. The moment they get any elite status their damage bcome so high.

I would put the magma worm as extra low tier as well (not the overloading version though). I mean, has anyone actually ever died from one of those in this game? They were more of a threat in the first game. 90% of the time they aren’t even attacking you and are off somewhere figure-eighting inside of the walls.

Tbh the only time I really struggle w wandering vagrants is on the first wave. If I get it first wave and I don’t have good items I’m almost guaranteed dead. (I only play monsoon)

sped up woolie facecam looks like thanos beatboxing

What artifacts are you using in the background? And how were you getting so many items during the boss fights

Mini mushrooms are a high threat because of their aoe and extremely high damage over time. If they spawn in the Void Fields then you are done!

Mini Mushrums are champions and brass contraptions are really powerful normal enemies.

To be honest I would actually swap beetle queen and stone titan because especially later on when you have more than 2 bosses, it can be hard to tell when all of them are about to poison spit and the distance from which you can get immediately shotgunned is surprisingly long. While on the other hand, the titan's insta-kill move (the laser) is much easier to avoid whether it's by just standing right next to him to prevent it entirely or just circle-strafing to avoid it.

You are wrong. Queen beetle is a medium or high threat because of her lasting aoe attacks and crazy damage when their acid ball things hit you.

The jellyfish always just spawn behind me ending the run early.

I just want to know about the grandparents, I forgot this vid is too old lmao. I've gotten burnt too many times now

Your amazing at risk of rain 2!!! The best ive ever done was stage 7, on the easiest mode( it was with acrid) btw keep up the good work

You get an automatic thumbs up for making it low/medium/high tier vs S/A/B/C ranks

not rly related to this but im kinda new into game and can i use those moonsoon guides for standard diff

Ror2 waifu tier list when

Had a great start, got 2 blazing clay templars at stage 3 :/

Is it bad I've been having the most trouble with Beetle Queens than any of the other early bosses? I can't dodge that damn spray to save my life (literally). Titans are easy, Vagrants catch me in "oh shit I have no cover and am dead" every now and then, but rarely. The bugs just... shoot me. Over and over again...

My strat for scavengers is to always stay behind them, this way they can’t hurt you with their shotgun and you can wail on them until they die

worms after 1.0 took that to heart

9:37 “Heat seaking balls” I don’t I’m mature enough for this

I find greater wisps to be a greater threat than the brass contraptions. Sure the brass and greater wisps attacks are very predictable but considering the blast damage I'd say that's harder than dodging slow moving spiked brass balls.

Void reverse are insta kill, doesn't matter how much he, teddy bears or clovers. Idk molded though but thats the only reason I think they should be high threat, not them but their death.

fun fact: you can actually dodge from golems, titans laser just hid behind other golem or titan

Worth pointing out that woolie showed us ON STREAM that he has 7 deaths to beetles :) ( I think it was 7 it was a while ago)

the trick to knowing that this is pre anniversary is beetle queens are low threat

Scavengers with chronobauble Op

How did you get so many red items after you killed the AWU?

Man i cannot count the amount of times i got oneshoted by the bettle queen

So uh... today I had a really good run on Loader and I saw a Malachite Beetle. I wanted to see what it did, so I let it hit me. I died instantaneously.

The beetle queen always kills me in higher difficulty runs. She just snipes me with her acid spit and im dead

No stream? Tap to retry? I’m early!

Where could I cop the shown 4 player 1 man enemy spawns

I once had an absolute god run as engineer and went to fight the twisted scavenger but he kept oneshotting my turrets through my shield so yea they're op :(

i once played with a Risk of rain 2 streamer i played engineer and they played Loader and i called myself the Deadgeneer cause i kept dying on Moonsoon but i get Spidah mines and Moonsoon Skin

What about which monster is the coolest
