Blast Shower best equipment.
Most of these interactions were already known around the community, I don't take credit for finding everything in this video, but hope you learned something :)

The release of the void dlc with the overtuned collapse and fire debuff at the time made me always take blast shower when i saw it unless i already had a raincoat. Then i noticed all the stuff it did in addition to cleansing debuffs and thats when it hit me just how underrated the item was. Sure it doesnt have the granduer of the BFG or the reliable bursts of royal capacitor, but its utility is absolutely massive.

one of my favorite things to do is run command, Railgunner with Marksman, get a gesture, get blast shower, and just start stacking fuel cells, bands, and syringes or mochas. eventually you can get such a low cooldown on the blast shower that its effectively ALWAYS procing, which means that the bands will always be active. coupled with the fire rate and maybe any atgs or charged perforators you get along the way, it just demolishes everything in your path. its not the most effective build, nor is it the most efficient build, but to me its the simplest and most satisfying xD

One thing I'd like to note about the Safer Spaces tech is that stacking Safer Spaces also reduces its cooldown so it's not *quite* as important. It's still really nice to have with low stacks, but once you get a few of them going it slowly becomes less and less relevant. Everything else is on point though.

@hansj4832 Жыл бұрын

Lowering the cooldown of Safer Spaces with more stacks of it is pretty hard, especially pre-loop, each stack doesn't reduce it that much. Plus being able to activate it whenever you want is ridiculously useful, especially for more telegraphed attacks. Can't count the amount of times I've blocked Mithrix's pizza with blast shower + safer spaces.

While i agree that blast shower is a very underrated equipment. I also feel like it mainly shines before the first loop unless you have quick uptime with a gesture. If you dont have gesture blastshower is not worth later on because at one point you die in one hit, you also can no longer just rely on just bands the further you go. The further you go the more you need proc chains. Overall i agree that blast shower shouldn’t be overlooked.

Blast shower is the S+ equipment item for me, only followed by executive card. As someone who enjoys endurance runs in RoR2 (especially now that I removed mob level cap) this item solves the issue that late game RoR2 runs can encounter: One Shot Protection. OSP is useless when enemies have delayed damage. Blast cleansing overloading projectiles alone made it a must have for me. The huge spike in DPS that it provides is also just a cherry on top.

wait how do the bands work. they activate on hit so is it that your hitting them proc-ing the band, blast shower, then hitting them again to proc once more. Or is it that the damage from the bands is proc-ing itself as you blast shower between its effect bashing critters in? but then again you said they got rid of self proc business. im dumb and confused. thanks for the info brother, very cool stuff.
