Oroborus is a good card sad you can’t buff it past 69 because of a psychic block that makes you unable to buff it anymore on your first run at least

The damage cap is most likely 2.1 billion, the size of a 32-bit signed integer, or more exactly: 2,147,483,647. Or, if they are using an unsigned one, it's 4,294,967,295. The fact that it loops around is what's known as an "integer overflow", and is a common bug in programs and computer games. Hearthstone has the same bug if you have something that doubles attack power (like Linecracker) enough times, and it will actually loop around to negative values when you hit the limit.

I didn’t know about half of these. I can’t believe I’m still learning stuff about Inscryption nearly two years later. Excellent video Exxo!

Quick tips if any of you wish to do test out the Mirror Tentacle (Without Morsel): You can start with the tentacle deck and the Annoying challenge, this basically allows you to not need the Leader sigil. You can also give your tentacle cards (Both Kraken and Mirror tentacle if you get one) the airborne from the Kingfisher. Recommend getting two mirror tentacle cards and using the wise clock, however you can also test it out in the Angler fight If you wish to test out the Mirror Tentacle with Morsel: This will requiere a lot of luck, if you do not do card editing. Best possible way of getting it with lock is to put is to also have a deck with annoying and putting that annoying in a mirror tentacle, then getting lucky at a cave trial (If you somehow do manage to get a Mirror tentacle with morsel and unkillable, I feel like you are the luckiest man alive), the fodder however is a bit "simpler", one blood sacrifice with a added morsel or unkillable, the other sigil can be gained by a totem. This seems like the best "Vanilla" way of getting that combo, however, it is NOT worth it man. Also, Fun fact! You can get the infinite mirror tentacle on Act 2. This one however cannot be given airborne so its basically useless, also a bit luck based. Use the great kraken fight on Po3's boss battle, have it be a mirror tentacle (luck) and then defeat Po3 stage one with something like a skeleton (Skeleton will die before it can be copied, there's even flavor text if you defeat phase one with zero cards onboard). Po3 copies mirror tentacle, and after the naturally moving of its fight happens, Attack conduits can be used to power it up! 🦑🔌🍎

There’s one more in act two with Oroboros. In the Grimora fight, after stage one, she kills all of your cards and gives them back as zombies (0 cost, 0 attack, 1 health). If Oroboros is zombified, you get your original Oroboros back, plus a zombified copy. You can then place the zombified copy down and remove with the hammer repeatedly until your Oroboros (and it’s zombified copy) is at its desired stats.

Warren with unkillable is also a really good engine for some of these, since it gives you unkillable rabbits. It's about on-par with unkillable black goat, with some niche for something like Red Hart, bone tokens, and being able to summon itself after being killed once.

Necromancer also dupes Oroboros, then you can sack Oroborosus with Oroborous instead of using the hammer, and use the Pharaoh's Pets to summon the first two Oroboroses and every other one after that. The hammer only does 100 damage but sacrifices do infinite, so a bit quicker. And as the necromancer double kills, the Oroboros goes up twice as fast.

This is what yugioh without hard once per turns would become

His “not good” card is mark’s Dr. Fire esquire

15:09 the law requires I answer Nice

Dang, when I first played, I thought the peak of damage was summoning three Urayulies to attack the training dummy in act 2 for foils. This guide really helped.

A slightly easier way of farming Ouroborous in act 2 is to place 1 Pharaohs Pets card and 2 necromancer cards, then sacrificing the the Pharohs Pets to summon the Ouroborous, before destroying the Ouroborous. Repeat until happy with your result. Also to get early bones play the squirrel ball then destroy all the squirrels it makes until you can remove the squirrel ball from the board.

There are other ways to kick off the infinity mirror combo besides Alpha: - If you summon one of the tentacles by sacrificing a card with Morsel and at least 1 attack - If you buff one tentacle's attack at a campfire using the Ijiraq trick - Give Leshy the Annoying mirror tentacle from the great kraken You could also put your flying mirror tentacle across from a Red Hart or Hand Tentacle controlled by Leshy and increase its attack that way

Nice, I also managed to find another loop though not with the cards specifically. Combining the squirrel totum with the sigil that summons squirrels, essentially gives you an infinite number of them at the start of the round. So I would just summon a whole bunch and sacrifice them to put really big 4 then 3 then 2 blood monsters on the board that would win me the fight early.

I am eternally grateful that this channel exists, there are not so many inscryption channels, and this one helps me a lot. Thank you brother.

It's worth mentioning that you don't really need to go through the pain of loop Ourobot in order to ramp it up during Act 3. The Ourobot card appears during Act 3 with the stats that your Ouroboros card had at the end of Act 2. If you plan on using a ramped Ourobot during Act 3 and don't want to go through the pain of slowly looping it, just quickly ramp up Ouroboros during Act 2 using the training doll.

in act 2, you can remove any threats your opponent has, then leave only gravediggers on your side the board looping turns to gain bones until you get the payoff from something like bone heap. only really useful for farming foils but still counts i think

Morsel on skink with unkillable and mighty leap, along with some other two-blood card with morsel and unkillable and either a flying creature, scissors, or wiseclock, will allow for damage that doubles every turn (use starvation as the skink's sparring partner, so it can keep splitting off its tail). Another interesting infinite is using a fledgling totem (must be totem) along with an unkillable card of that tribe and a way of respawning it without needing squirrels (e.g. an infinite warren, etc.), and a repeatable way of sacrificing and respawning it each turn. Play a 1/1 bee with fledgling and if it survives next turn it will become a 2/3 elder bee. If that survives one turn and is sacrificed, it will return to hand as a 2/3 elder bee but will regain the fledgling sigil if it is replayed. If that survives a turn and is sacrificed, it will return to hand as a 3/5 elder bee.

There's actually another way to supercharge Oroborus in the Second Act. You can only do it in Grimora's boss fight, but if you pull it off it makes it stupidly easy to power up Oroborus. All boss battles have two parts. In this case, all you have to do is have Oroborus on the field when you beat Grimora the first time. As a boss mechanic, she will kill all your cards and then give you zombie versions of those cards. When Oroborus is killed, it will respawn in your hand along with a zombie version. Here's the kicker though, the zombie one has NO SUMMON COST but retains the same abilities as the original. Meaning you can summon and destroy it with the hammer as many times as you want. Because Oroborus's ability states that when ANY COPY of the card gets destroyed, all copies are powered up, you can essentially kill the zombie copy as much as you want and permanently power up your copy.

You can also buff Ouroboros infinitely in act 2 by fighting Grimora and playing it during faze one, upon beating faze one she kills it and returns it and a zombie version to your hand, you can play the zombie version for no cost and sacrificing it increases both cards stats and returns it to your hand.

Poor Leshie! he is just waiting for you to end your turn knowing he's screwed.

Necromancer also works with unkillable sigal, meaning you can get infinite ouroboroses.

The red hart has gotta be my favorite card ever. It’s special ability is so cool, (even if it does screw me from time to time), it’s design is awesome, I just love it. I still remember beating royal for the first time using a red hart/unkillable black goat/lammer mega combo, 300 damage in a single turn lmao

One of my favorite variations of oroboros is using the grimora boss fight along with a necromancer during the boss phase transition. If you ser it up so that oroboros is to the left of the necromancer you get 2 normal oroboros cards. And then when grimora gives you back the free corpse variant of oroboros you now have enough for an infinite. You first need to set it up by sacrificing something to get the first normal oroboros onto the board. And now you are ready for amuch faster oroboros scaling loop. 1) place down thr free (corpse) oroboros 2) sacrifice the 2 oroboros cards on the board to summon a normal oroboros. 3) repeat With this method you get +2 +2 for each iteration of the loop instead of +1 +1.

I found that in act 2, if you have a necromancer and a tomb robber, you can make the loop go twice as fast and will give you duplicate ouroboroses

Fun fact, necromancer works with oroborus, so when you sacrifice it actually duplicates oroborus. So you can have one necromancer and three oroborus cards, which makes it take less time to get to the 666 damage achievement.

12:05 Doesn’t have to have 0 attack, you just need to summon another broken egg in front of the one with attack

The tomb robber + necromancer combo also works with field mice in tomb robber’s place

My very first time I beat act 1 I had something similar to the unkillable/ bunny spawn setup. I got the bunny spawn sigil from the wood carver with a squirrel head, so I ended up basically getting double value for all my squirrels. So I could always be filling all of the spots on the board and getting tons of blood and bones for whatever I wanted to summon

The angler in act 1 can also take your mirror tentacle, so the mirror tentacle combo only works during the angler and leshy bossfights in act 1

love your vibes so much im glad you make content regularly

in kaycee's mod a variant of the ouroborus combo is very easy to make using the ant deck, a totem of insect head and either 'unkillable' or 'ant spawner' and one 'unkillable' creature with bone-cost (with ant spawner likely this'll be cockroach, tho mealworm is a good alternative if you got unkillable totem or transferred the sigil, since it transfers its own stats on sacrifice and is half the cost of cockroach) since the ants will give repeated sacrifice fodder (and bones) on summon with either sigil on the totem and you just need the bone cost creature as the 2nd creature and the ants can farm the bones by looping them individually, so the bone cost is redundant (but the lower the cost, the quicker the combo goes of course)

im very new to the game (bought like four days ago, unlocked kaycee's mod yesterday lol) and i dunno if it counts but. ants. cockroach + "spawn ant when played" sigil on ur ant, you can just infinitely build up bones by sacrificing ants onto themselves, play cockroach, place new ant over cockroach. not infinite damage but it's very comfy to set up and clears most things easily

as seen in Pirate Software's playthrough, in act 2 if grimora makes oroborus into a zombie, the zombie version is free and unkillable and increments the real version permanently when it dies

a very fun kaycee's mod one is unkillable ants and lammergeier. found it while in class about a year and a half ago

Leshy watching you build up your oraborus be like 😐

Warren with Unkillable also works with the Oroboros/Hand Kraken loops.

3:49 that combo with the mealworm's sigil is op!

How to have leshy play a mirror tentacle in act 1? Just fight the fisherman... And let him hook one of yours...

The bug totem with ants is infinite bones, you kill an ant to summon an ant, giving you a bone, then you get an ant, if by some chance you put the bunny sigil AND the unkillable sigil on an ant then you can even summon the lammergeier with just 2 cards but honestly as long as you have 1 ant and the bug totem with ant sigil you can make lammergeier infinitely powerful by sacrificing the ant for an ant to get an ant to sacrifice more ants. Ants ants ants.

Everyone says the Horrorboros has a "hidden ability" but Leshy straight-up tells you the ability when you first see the card

I had a zero cost card with the field mouse ability and then return to hand ability on death along with air defence and the maggot ability. once played would fill the board in one turn when sacrificed and would block everything.

A quicker way to power up you Oroboros for the achievement in Act 2 is having two necromancers on your board as well. That way Oroboros will die 3 times every time you hammer/sacrifice it.

Wow that Hodag strat is hilarious. If you give the Hodag the Brood Parasite sigil, it'll actually be able to just do direct overkill basically every time. I'll definitely expirement with that. Here's another really odd thing I found about Hodag though: If Hodag has the Tailcut sigil and if its tail kills an enemy, both the tail AND Hodag will be buffed since it's techincally apart of the same creature. I bet this will also work with Chimes/Dam Builder so long as they have the Fledgling or Alpha sigil too.

Just found a really simple engine for the Bone Heap / Gourmage payoff while messing around in Act II that only requires bones! All you need is a Necromancer, a Grave Robber, and a Bone Heap. Two of these are free, which is nice! Use the Tomb Robber to summon a Skeleton for one Bone. Kill it with the hammer. The Necromancer makes it die twice, giving you two Bones. Repeat ad nauseum for infinite bones, then payoff with Bone Heap.

I grinded up my ouroboros in act 2 and then got it back in act 3- great time lolllll

In all my time playing and replaying inscryption, I’m proud to say I’ve done all of these before (except for the morsel one) so I think I qualify for a veterans discount lol

I had a combo that uses, a infinite sacrafice cat and one ouroboros with feild mice. Making ur hand huge asf and making oro get buffed a lot

On one run I got lucky enough to have a squirrel totem with the return sigil, essentially meaning I’d have infinite access to squirrels

Enjoyed the video

Personally I used the necromancer to spawn multiple ouroboros and sacrifice them using each other which would then ramp up the speed of their attack power even faster. You could also play at least 3 at once and get triple their individual attack power.

requires luck(or unluck) but bloodlust doesnt need bifurcating strike technically. cave trials can give you a wolverine with just brood parasite and no flight just fuse it with a wolverine with unkillable and have an infinite sac outlet.

The number is 2,147,483,647 which is the biggest number you can store in 32 bit sized signed integer. Then they used some code which turns to 0 all negative numbers, which starts loop all over again. Would be better to use unsigned int in this case, so they woudn't need to programm loop by hands. Of cource it works only if cards do not deal negative ammounts of damage.

That mirror tentacle is literally like real life mirror when you put two mirror face to face

since there is technically no cap to the amount of pelts you can have in your deck, you can infinitely draw pelts so that starvation is never an issue during the hodag combo

Quick tip if you are buffing ouroboros inn act 2 you can use necromancer to make it die twice to make it go faster.

There are so many ways to get an infinite ouroboros. I’ve done it at least five different ways. (Most of them not even for ouroboros) 1. Any form of classic fecundity (and even some using the more recent version) 2. Cockroach+unkillable ant queen (slowest method) 3. The one mentioned in the video 4. Unkillable warren to get infinite rabbits 5. Two of literally any 1 cost card with unkillable on both of them and a cockroach (or an unkillable possum) There’s so many ways

Happy birthday exxo-

Blood lusted hydra go crazy

Double unkillable geckos + ouroboros is superiour to the goat combo. Change my mind

The one with mirror tentacles is really creative ngl

i did the first one in my first playthrough, one day when i was sick and home from school i spent hours getting it to 667 (for the acievement)

Ah the Ouroboros in act 2, the only reason myself and many others beat the game after the gotcha change

A great way of making the Act 2 Pharaoh's Pets one more effective is with 2 Necromancers. As theyd resurrect a dying card, you can not only get 3 stats on Ouro in a cycle, after the 1st Ouro death, you can sacrifice the Ouro and use Pharaoh's Pets 2nd, this makes Ouro die 3 times and up the stats 3 times, then place the new one.

On my second play-through, I was lucky enough to end up with a death card that’s free to play, has unkillable and ant spawner. Not only could I use that to fill my whole side of the board with ants in one turn, but I also used it to build up Ouroboros’s stats into the hundreds by repeatedly saccing ants to Ouroboros and vice versa. I ended up winning later with a deck filled with pelts because I had bifurcated bees. Then in chapter 2 I took advantage of Po3 copying Ouroboros to do another infinite loop for even more power! Then I think I gave Ourobot bifurcated strike in chapter three. It was OP! To think I missed out on that on my first playthrough, but it was cool to experience then.😂

Question: how do you get bith the unkillable AND rabbit spawner sigils on a card? To my knowledge, you can only transfer another sigil to a card once, and after that it's no longer possible with that specific card that it was transferred to. So, is there another way to transfer sigils onto cards, or what am I missing?

The best infinite combo is my persistence when it comes to asking for a garten of banban stream

Technically not one you missed, but in act 2 it’s possible to get a 0 cost Oroborous from the fight with the necromancer scrybe. Pirate Software (a KZfaqr) did this in his run. Meaning you can just play and then hammer infinitely, the free card is bound to the fight, but hammering it also increases the stats of the real Oroborous

You might be able to pull of mirror inf. Danmage in normal game at fisherman from first phase or final boss.

i can only seem to get ONE sigil on a card in kaycee's mod. (unless i combine two cards together with the mushroom guys) so how did you get two on one card?

Morsel on Ouroborus must be amazing.

You can also use tomb raider and necromancer with oroboros

To infinity, and beyond!

Thanks for the help i can finaly beat leshy btw i have ouroborus rabbit hole and black goat unkileable ultra luck

leshy looking as you create a card capable of ending the world

I saw Dr fire esquire in the thumbnail

My playthrough, I did an ourobouros loop with unkillable squirrels

oh i dont kow if you mentiond it but oroborus carys its strength from act 1 to act 2 and from act 2 to act 3

To make lammegeier combo i would advice to have bone king sigil on one or both sacrifice engine cards

You could probably optimize the Not Good! loop if you're ever in a battle opposing a card with the sentry sigil. Then you don't have to go through the process of actually hammering it

I think I got my oroborous up to something silly like 200 without even cheesing it with black goat. I feel like kaylee's nerfed fecundity at some point, I used to have some truly hilarious infinite loops with field mice

Fun fact, in act 2 the necromancer can be used with the ouroboros to make a fun thing

Player: does a hundred damage The game: "No, don't do that." Resets game Player: I'm gonna do it again.

corpse maggots with unkillable can replace itself upon death. beehives give whatever sigils they have to their bees. bug totems can be seriously broken

I had a an insane run in in kaycees mod where I would had two over powered cards one was a super bear that had 20 attack and 30 health and the other was a hand tentacle with duplication (I forgot the word) and undying so I could get infinite cards and have infinite attack

johny infinite was my jam in act 2. totally carried me lol

Ourobot, if already highly powered, is an incredible choice to play near the end of the mycologist fight, as it can combine with a low cost base card to create a new card with incredible power, without needing the infinite battery

I remember being able to beat the cabin on the first run using something like this.

Could a rabbit warren with unkillable also work for the oroborus engine? Since it only costs 1 blood and gives a rabbit when played

Леший в начале: Чувак, хватит! Пожалуйста остановись! Давай играть!

so this explains Leahy's loose grip on sanity.

This gives off major pot of greed vibes

There is actually an even easier way to farm ouroboros in act 2 and it doesnt really require you to set up any loop, basically you just need to beat grimora's first phase with the ouroboros on the board, and then you will get the ouroboros back as well as a free cost ouroboros "corpse" and killing that free corpse also increases the real ouroboros so you can just keep farming the corpse until you're satisfied

Having ant spawner on two ants or on the insect totem will give you an easy infinite bone loop

I spent 2 hours buffing ouroboros in act 2 for the achievement My fingers still are in pain

3:37 How quickly the tide turns

What if you got the Morsel and the Undying sigils on one card with a 1 blood cost and one other 1-blood card with undying (optional second morsel sigil to speed it up, unless undying undoes the morsel effect) So summon morsel card, sacrifice for second undying, it goes back in hand, new card buffed, repeat until power is as high as desired

I've never used an infinite combo in story mod. I always tought it wasn't worth it since it took so long and would make the game boring. That chanced when I had to face 8 freddys in kaycee's mod.

I found another oroboros combo you can get super early Get the beehive, give it unkillable and let 1 thibg ram into it, the bees automatically get unkillable too so you can cycle the beehive, the 1 bee and oroboros

I used spore mice and the Pharaoh’s pet to loop oroboros in my play though.
