best item in the game tbh

Wooly: “Perhaps I shouldn’t of picked up brilliant behemoth” Ego: “Say no more”

Ego is about quantity over quality. Never use non-white cauldrons with ego (except with regen scrap) because you're just giving up 2-4 potential pieces of ego food. Also don't bother scrapping anything that isn't actively being detrimental to you unless you're immediately going to turn it into other items with printers, it's all effectively already scrap for the ego.

Imagine if Mithrix's Egos also take his items So if the fight takes long enough it's you vs Mithrix, on the final destination of the game, with no items (save for Ego)

I actually really like egocentrism. My favorite run since the patch ended up with over 200 of them (entire galaxy swirling around the character) which I then turned into ~160 pearls and 58 irradiant pearls - it was amazing.

i love that Egocentrism turns your head into a star, such a cool and funny item thinking about it, "everything revolving around me"

Watching the turret walk to ego mythrix was like watching a dog walk into rush hour trafic

Love the editing woolie, keep it up

my best run was literally 6 and a half hours. bought ego three times, converted into pearls twice. over 100 standard pearls, and THIRTY TWO RADIANT. ended up with more than 30 benthic blooms as well. ended up killing the run just because there was no end in sight. that's just what happens when you have LITERALLY 50k+ hp/shield with a max of 100k+ with fully stacked barrier from aegis. healing for more than 150k/s, and not even bosses can approach without instant death due to having... basically every red in the game always stacked well over ten due to benthic. ego literally could not stuff itself fast enough to damage the build anything that came within ego range started a chain reaction that killed everything else out to about 5x ego range. ego, shrimp, frost relic, pocket rocket, knives and nukahauntus. aegis, wungus, rejuv racks, and well over 12 corpsebloom. the 150k/s healing was just because 50+ wungus and 10+ corpsebloom means if i sprint AT ALL, ima heal for 150k/s for the foreseeable future. eventually i had 14 shifts and my commando could cosplay Maxim from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (if you know what i mean you know what i mean). i also ended up with 12 charges of ultimate on global cooldown, so if i ACTUALLY WANTED TO DO ANYTHING MYSELF i could literally just spam R and forget i have a primary. ...was kinda broken, not gonna lie.

Love the new editing woolie! Great work!

11:38 something about this guy just makes him the best entertainer on the platform, its the energy i think. been laughing at this for a good while now

Honestly had my doubts about the practicality of ego but I see the potential now, damn lol.

Friendship ended with Abandoned Aqueduct, now Aphelian Sanctuary is my best friend

Mr.Gamer: Maybe taking a behemoth wasn't the best idea? Game: Well, if you don't want it...

I'm not gonna lie I never thought of playing engi with walking bomb turrets lol that looks so fun

My favorite ror2 moment was when the enemy had a crowbow

Beginning of phase 3 had me scared Mithrix keeps your lunars til he dies, I've never paid attention to whether it did or not and thought the run was for sure over

I agree with other commenters I don't think we need the screen darkening and focus shift stuff that much. Not sure if the music cutting in and out a lot was part of the editing or you doing it manually but I wouldn't mind the music being generally lower.

Ego when it sees you pick up a delectable red item: finally some good fucking food.

Woolie blessed us with the quality edits today 💪💪

I play RoR2 like once in a while with my bro and sometimes alone, haven't touched the game for months now. But I'm always watching this dude lol, content is just amazing even for people that don't play the game or don't play as often. He keeps you updated and also has some very fun playthroughs with commentary, not to mention the edits that are in another level. Really a top notch content creator Woolie, hope you keep doing it.

It would be sick if you gained more stacks of ego based on the item it absorbs. Like, 1 stack for whites, 2 for greens, 3 for yellows, and blues, and a whopping 5 for reds. It would synergize hilariously with benthic, provided it doesn't take that too... regardless, it would be pretty OP, but in a fun way.

Ur a goob, dood. Fun to watch

I like the darkening effect, but slightly reduce it when you're just showing items and not giving a detailed description of them (like your description of ego) or putting particular attention to some descriptions (eclipse modifier at 3:55)

I love the music this video. I'm always a sucker for pendulum and drum and bass.

ego had your back when you started second guessing your behemoth idea.

Really nice editing choices! Good quality, also Ego is truly the best item in the game :^)

Love this increased production value

delicious editing on this video i must say

Ego, knowing phase 4 mithrix would take egos, took your movement speed to spare you from it's betrayal.

Joe is really killing it with the edits!

Along with the darkness that others mentioned, you can also disable the output for audio channel 6 so that the music would appear live, but not in the VOD/clips. The current ducking is serviceable but still a bit awkward.

yk be awesome if you were to record your mic audio as a seperate file too soy ou could add it into your videos without the music turning on then cutting off constantly

Nothing better than a year old Woolie video at midnight while I eat cold mac n cheese.

"Maybe Behemoth wasn't the best idea... aaaand it's gone."

I really can notice how much better the editing has gotten for these shorter videos 👍

Imagine coming back home on Safe Travels and people on Earth starts thinking "the fuck are those billions of blue things in the sky?"

I love the edits, adds a lot more flavor to the video. However when the items popped up on screen like shaped glass, tonic, and gesture, the screen didn't need to darken all that much.

I only got the DLC about a week ago, but Egocentrism was the first lunar item i got when i got back into the game and ran a chill drizzle run to reacquaint myself with the game and check out the new items. I had 76 stacks of it by the time i died to several blazing Grandparents because i was using Swarms and hit two shrines of the mountain. It felt BS to die literally immediately to the burn procs, but having that much Egocentrism was super fun to play with while it lasted. Definitely a fun item that I'll always say is fun but never pick up because I'll be grinding unlocks for the forseeable future.

Behemoth? Dio's? Shrimp? Everything gets eaten! EVERYTHING IS FOOD FOR EGOCENTRISM!!!

Love the edits in this video very cool

This is the best video on KZfaq!!!

I like when things pop up but the screen doesn't need to darken for it

Playing with a mod that makes it so each stack of ego makes it convert items faster. Love picking it up on super long runs and just watching it suddenly zap your entire inventory.

keep smashing it with the content woolie

All become one beneath the E G O.

The ego, one of the very few if not, only way to get rid of void items.

First it giveth, then it taketh away

Ego is the key to Pearls.

the title is exactly how it feels. Ego will make you laugh and make you cry

This is some high-quality content!

editing do be goated

The music syncing for the last phase on Mithrix was beautiful.

the new editing is kinda a bit too annoying with the item highlight (especially the screen darkening), and when paired with the audio silence make its a bit more awkward. I do love the fact that you're trying out new styles, so yeah that's all I have to say thanks for coming to my TEDtalk

If you can keep a plasma shrimp with ego, you're practically a god.

Oh that drive by Pepe is top tier

That Behemoth and Dio's will certainly be missed, egocentrism in a nutshell xD

Doesn't Twitch have a tool to remove the music from the VOD? "Soundtrack by Twitch". You can use it with your own music on steam and then put something without copyright for KZfaq.

The editing is so good one this one

Egocentrism in a nutshell: *No Hopoo Feathers?* *No Brilliant Behemeth?* *No Dio's Best Friend?*

alternate title, "amputee engineer kills god with cannibalistic glowing balls"

All items are food, and reds look especially delicious. Ego giveth, and ego taketh away.

Absolutely love the edit style. :)

Woolie’s editing on the videos has improved so much since the dlc dropped, or is that just me?

I did an ego run once and I'm pretty sure it takes the most recent items you got, meaning that your oldest items will typically stay with you if you can pick other items up fast enough. It's been a while since my last ego run though, so I definitely could be wrong Edit: never mind the video literally disproves that

As someone who got 4 million HP, cleansing pools are the BEST.

Insanely good video 👍

I've got an ego? Yeah about 29 of them

I think the bombs regenerate like the shuriken, they have a set amount of time that they all must regenerate in.

Bro woolie, the editing was on point this episode!

GOAT Thumbnail

Kinda off topic but you have great taste in music Im a huge EDM fan

I'm really liking the new editing style!

the law of equivalent exchange

It would be interesting if it targeted scrap first. Or gave more Ego’s for higher tiered items

The song at the end is fire tho

swarm of bees attack

Scrap should be prioritiesd over anything with ego just lime a scrapper

My very first or second run, my first lunar item was ego. I did not expect what it did, and now I have an inherent rivalry with it

did you get an editor or something? this video looks good.

Woolies upping his Editing game I see looking slick with it

Great video

first time i took ego i lagged out my teamates computers. 10/10 would do again.

Me and my homies still prefer the 🅱️ungus

Engineer gaming in there

ego is pretty ✨ I think it might not convert void items but unfortunately there's not a void item for speed lol

pennies or behemoth... it is all food to ego...

I like the new editing style it's really nice

I've come to the conclusion that it is definitely a picky eater. It just doesn't wanna eat the bad items

I honestly expected it to instantly convert the irradiant to punish you for not converting them all.

Fun little combo, use this item with the Goku character mod, or Vegeta and Trunks too. Since the item scales based on your base damage, everytime you transform, it gains a huge power spike.

Loss of Brain 2

If you got an early egocentrism and a cleansing pool, couldn't you let ego eat all of your items, feed all but one ego to the pool, pick up all normal pearls but leave any irradiants on the ground, let ego eat the normal pearls, feed those egos into the pool, rinse and repeat until you have a fat stack of irradiants?

time for Eclipse 8 Rex

Ayo haywyre in the background!

Great

yooo i'm loving your editing

Ego be like SLURP

Not sure but after using it several times, I think prioritizes by tier, taking your best first.

Woolie definitely didn't edit this
