The Streamer is the coolest, hardest, and most complicated class in the game. Strap in folks, we're learning about COMPOUND INTEREST.
Detailed class guide and gameplay for Brotato 1.0 on max difficulty, including the unique mechanics, best build, and tips for this class. This run features genuine financial advice (legally this is not financial advice).

Fun fact: The German KZfaq Channel „Pietsmiet“ asked the developers if they could make a character based on them and the developers made the Streamer. That is why the character has a green controller, because that’s the Pietsmiet logo.

well executed! i think the streamer flavor comes from when he sits still in front of his pc, he generates passive income, and when he is in the real world, he moves fast and needs to be high effective to go back asap at sitting still in front of his pc. makes a lot of sense to me! 😅

@Cephalopocalypse 10 ай бұрын

Thanks very much! Sure, that makes sense - though I personally suspect the real reason it's the "streamer" is so every popular streamer would make a video titled "they made me in a video game!" Which I think worked so well played, Brotato devs

2 big correction regarding landmines and pocket factory. Structures regarding the armor is based on item not actual structures on the field. So the landmines always gives 2 armor whatever there is 0 or 10 mines on the field, and pocket factory sadly never gives armor. Wiki from the character page: "With Landmines the +2 armor is from the item itself, not for each mine on the field. "

That's very possible! I'd definitely test that for yourself though, the wiki unfortunately is not very reliable for structure interactions

@vivavaldez87 2 ай бұрын

I disagree about the "flavor" of the character. I think this is one of the smartest class designs I've seen in any game. The idea that a streamer is sitting in front of their PC generating money, but as the stream scales and bloats, it becomes harder for them to move away from it (speed). If they do move in any other direction, the impact is jarring (damage and attack speed). Their income from traditional means is meager (material drops). The hardware and home/room they invest in creates security (armor from structures). When I first saw the character, just the stats alone made me chuckle at all these subtle flavors... not many stat boxes in games can do that, AND the streamer isn't alone in this. The Old, Crazy and Knight all have great flavor, too. Strong design by the devs.

I just beat Danger 5 on Streamer. It was pretty miserable. My winning build had 5 trees, 3 bags, good amount of harvesting(~200 by wave 20). I got 2 sausages and 1 snake pretty early too. My weapons were 5 lightning shivs and 1 thunder sword. Just got lucky with what items appeared in the store. Not sure I could win again. I've got 7 classes left, of which 2 might be difficult.

@vpr5555 10 ай бұрын

I only have 2 left, Streamer and Glutton. This will be helpful as I always get to around wave 11/12 and the -26+ speed gets me killed. For Glutton I'm trying to do it without using Pruners, I've had moderate success with screwdriver and even less success with shredder, is it even possible with either of those weapons?

@Cephalopocalypse 10 ай бұрын

Awesome, glad the video helps! Shredder should be possible, I think. Screwdriver is a very difficult weapon to use, though, so while i think that's *possible* to win with I'd save it for a challenge run or something like that. I talk a little more about the issues with the weapon in my upcoming weapon tier list so keep an eye out for that :)

@@Cephalopocalypse I won with Streamer last night (full SMGs) following your video as a rough guide. This morning I won with Glutton (all screwdrivers after failing 4 or 5 shredder attempts in a row). I had always gotten further with screwdrivers on Glutton then shredder so you may want to give it a try. Grabbing consumables stacks explosion damage, I started off by boosting my health since Glutton has a low life-pool at the start. Then I focused on attack speed, melee damage, armor (because I took stone skin), luck, speed, and dodge. I think I got lucky because I grabbed x2 Rip and Tear which did wonders for wave clear. I also took a couple turrets that showed up in the shop, grabbed improved tools, explosive bullet, panda, lucky cat x2, plastic explosives, landmines, tractor, shackles when I had 23 speed, and your random assortment of t1 and t2 items.. Had 4 red screwdrivers, a purple, and a blue at the end. a bit of range felt good, allowed me to stand back. I'm at all D5 cleared now, happy to be done!

@@Cephalopocalypse I happened to choose Streamer for my second ever Danger 5 clear last night. My biggest takeaway was that it's crucial to get your economy going as early as possible. For me, this meant starting with an SMG, and abstaining from buying anything from the shop until after Wave 2. A single SMG is actually strong enough to get you through the first two waves while remaining completely still (other than grabbing materials at the very end of the wave)

@Natedog1520 3 ай бұрын

Here's some tips and issues you may have: yes it's good to stand still, but dying is worse than not getting an extra 3 gems you should be safe from waves 1-3 on Waves 1-2. Stand still until 3 seconds left unless a tree is seen. Then, you may want to move early. If you find the bag that gives you 15+ material per crate, GRAB IT Focus Range damage your damage % will be impossible to keep up late-game Everytime yo usee current or another things similar to it grab it plus anything that gives you bonuses for standing still On Wave 6 of difficulty 5, focus on the eggs so you can stand still for longer periods of time. Before elites or swarms use your gems or you'll most likely die

I can't believe you didn't buy the Wisdom at 29:41. Was that a mistake, or you don't think it's good even on the streamer? It seems like it's perfect for the streamer, since you're pretty OP for the first 15-20 seconds of a wave, anyway.

@Cephalopocalypse 7 ай бұрын

I usually avoid wisdom, because it contributes to falling behind on clearing enemies and getting overwhelmed. You're right it's more interesting for Streamer, though, since you get weaker as the wave goes and that can help counteract that effect. Definitely worth trying!

I have 2 questions: Does the healing turret heal although you have torture? And why didnt you buy wisdom?

It doesn't, buying that was a mistake! Really easy to forget you have torture. And I generally don't like wisdom, though it's a little better on streamer - it makes killing elites quickly more difficult, which is usually the goal. The start of the wave you need all the burst damage you can get so you don't get on the back foot.

@timmietimmins3780 9 ай бұрын

I think you massively underestimate minigun. While it does have lower base DPS, it has a bunch of soft stats that make it way better: mainly, the piercing. It may only scale a bit more than twice as hard off flat damage, but if you are using the piercing, it applies that doubled scaling to an extra enemy, which can easily mean it's getting more like 300% more damage scaling off flat damage. It also, in the early game, does double the DPS of SMG's, once you factor in that it's piercing and the SMG's aren't. That, and it's crit mod is higher. But mostly, it's that the minigun pierces and SMG's don't.

@Cephalopocalypse 9 ай бұрын

All good points! I think I forgot it pierces when reviewing it. I have found that your single-target dps takes a hit at certain breakpoints when switching smg to minigun, but I'd have to do a lot more math to figure out when those are based on numbers rather than vibes :P
