In this episode, Sifd teaches you all about crit chance for 35 minutes

Just saying, from my own experience, having high luck is the best build you can have for mutant, because with high luck you cam garantee more purple level ups and since you level up alot with mutant its a win win, specially because you cant rely o shopping spree to get stats you need to get them from the level ups and if you never get good level ups you'll end up weak in the later waves

Sifd ricochet (projectiles bounces +1) its crazy good with explosives bc makes them explode 2 times instead of one and also the bounce happens first then the piercing happens, i had crazy runs with ricochet+ explosives weapons literally erasing everything on the screen

Octopus makes sense as a reference: a high intelligence animal with an unfortunately short lifespan. It should give ++++xp gain and -- max hp. Maybe throw in some +dodge for the ink/camouflage ability

Sifd here again, with another brotato ruuuun. I just click these videos for this sentence

As long as you don't one-shot enemies with normal hits, your chances of the killing blow being from a crit are Always more likely than your crit chance. Hits that do more damage are more likely to kill an opponent. It's been a while since helping my little sister with Statistics, but thanks for having me rethink the probabilities.

I took a drink of water everytime he said "Crit" and now I am hydrated.

I think the octopus is with him because when things mutate they often depict them with tentacles.

My build for the mutant was an ethereal build. Try to start with some luck level ups, and rely on the ghost gear to level up those stats so the extra level ups can be aimed at other things. The difficulty curve was admittedly broken when I got Retromation's hoodie at wave 10, and suddenly I was getting 120 extra attack speed, but it was still going fine before hand. :P I love the variety you can get in this game.

I really appreciate that the Obliterator has a unique icon for its projectile - all the other projectile guns shoot the same yellow pellet, but the Obliterator shoots a flaming dragon head.

Exprooooosion!

the octopus should give more pickup range 80% would fit the exp gain more

when Sifd thought the taser was a shredder 😂😂😂

I agree about the gate keep thing, in single player you should always be able to do what's fun for you. Unlocks should not be blocked, achievements maybe not sure.

Lmao the run ends and there’s still 15mins left in the video😂

Today, Sifd is going to teach probability and distribution

I screamed at my phone when you passed on a bouncing obliterater. So mad 🤬

The oblitorator sounds great on paper, then I see all the attacks hitting mooks instead of the high health enemies. Now I know why i haven't seen a run with it until now.

Rationality speaking spending money doesnt give u exp but as a character that focuses mainly on exp one could argue that having harvesting isnt a negative since jt gives more exp which means more level ups.

HP regeneration is not needed. Also with range you should be getting Frog or Alien tongue as often as possible. And both together would be great or 2 of any one is nothing. Needs a boost.

thanks mate, for positivie energy. i needed that

He's right about everything he talk about after the run

At 19:00 - opposite of 'frugal' is a funny one in english. An exact opposite would be "spendthrift" but that's a strange word most people don't use and it's hard to remember. I'd go with "careless" which is a more general description not only confined to money.

I used accessibility to easily unlock every item. It also shows up in the character records on the select screen.

Hey Sifd. I really liked how you went really deep into how the game works with the criteria and accessibility mode. I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts on accessibility mode. What are your thought on games with similar modes to help them be more accessible to people with disabilities?

The opposite of frugal is spendthrift (someone who spends extravagantly). It's a bit weird because it has thrift in it, but that's English for you.

Awesome job on the videos, keep up the great work. I noticed when I changed the settings it shows the level and %. If 100% on all, it didn't show % it only showed the level (1-5). Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Can you turn on the effect for the weapon lvls

Come for explosions, stay for stats lessons.

But Sifd You can manually aim the weapon

the first idea that comes to mind when i see 200% exp gain and %50 price increase is focus on getting weapons and for stats is level ups

i belive there is a bug or better a miss description regarding the vigilante ring. In my games it gives me +3 meele damage per round and not +3% damage.

bounce is fun with the nuke and bazooka

Sifd, what are your thoughts on the Cute Monkey item? I think it's a really slept on source of healing

I think I have beginners luck cuz in every run as long as I survive wave 7 or 8 I get the sides relic and I get retro and Etsy a lot but that’s prob cuz I don’t have a lot of legendarys in my pool xd

Octopus could simply say: Gain 3 level ups

Not necessarily opposed to adding difficulty adjustments, but it's silly to put that under the topic of "accessibility". Just put it in a "difficulty setting" menu. No need to confuse disability access (i.e. font size, etc.) with game difficulty settings. They're two different things. And there's not exactly any story here, so you can't even use the (bullshit) excuse that players may need an easier mode to "access" the full story and experience it all the way through.

You have missed concepts about crits from the thief daggers... they are better, cause they gives you "money" for each crits didn't matter if you kill or not the enemy... is not like the hunter's trophy... plus related to bounces, each bounce gives you an extra attack from explosives, is pretty good with rocket launcher... it's a bounced rocket launcher... what else can you want?

Actually all Sifd say in wave 17-18 doesn't really matter, the probability is independent. You only need to count the last hit, it doesn't matter about the previous hit is crit or not, the chance of crit AND give you a coin for the last hit is always Chance of crit*50% chance.

Big boom is always good

Long explanation of probability with examples: if you have a 50% chance to crit and crits do 2X damage, and an enemy takes multiple hits to kill then the chances of the final hit being a crit are 75%, this is because there are twice the opportunities to crit for the last hit, if crits did 3X damage and an enemy can survive atleast 3 hits then the chances of the final hit being a crit is 87.5%, it's basic statistics, and for items that have a 1.5x crit damage its more situational but it still works out to be about 64.4% I believe, all of this was using 50% crit chance as an example and the formula is simple you need to find out the odds that it wouldn't happen in a chain, so if there is a 12% chance of something happening and you attempt it 6 times then the chances of it occurring within those 6 attempts can be found by using the chances of it not happening per attempt and multiplying it by itself for every attempt, for this example 88% for the 12% chance not to occur so you would multiply 88% as a decimal .88 by itself for every attempt, .88^6 is .4644 or 46.44% chance that the event doesnt happen within 6 attempts, from there all you need to do is substract the result from 1 to get the chances of it happening atleast once in the sequence, which results in a 53.56 chance of the 12% chance event happening atleast once, If you wanted to write the formula in an easy to use way it would be 1-(1-P)^n where P is the probability of the event happening in a single attempt written as a decimal and n is the number of attempts made. In the context of this game and the chances of the final kill being a critical the value of n would simply be how many normal/non-critical hits the enemy can take till dying while being able to be killed in a single critical hit, put simply assuming the target has enough health the value of n is the critical hit damage multiplier, the initial 1 that we are subtracting from is so that you don't need to subtract the result from 1 later and the 1 within the () is the find the chances of an event not happening.

A thing I notice is when you start complaining about not having ways to heal, is you never grab cute little monkey, I believe even having 1 might help out if your weapons are killing enough, making sure there is materials to pick up everywhere. Of course the percentage chance of it procing is low, but it might be an experimental alternative way to heal for a run.

I find great success manipulating the tag system. For example: If you took that cacti club as your first weapon from the shop, then you would have had a weapon tagged with "heavy-primitive" and one tagged with "explosive-gun". These four tags make it easier to get offered "explosive-heavy" (rocket launcher) and "heavy-gun" (minigun), which are two of the best weapons in the game, and an early pick of either would result in massive econ from kills.

Octopus Legendary item upon pickup, +8 level on next wave HP can only be recovered by regeneration -5 Armor Edit: Just realize this can cause bug with the +3hp per second item

Yea I agree can’t gatekeep a single player game. The entire point is to have fun. It’s funny tho the people gatekeep are doing it on streams or videos instead of playing the game and having fun so they automatically lose.

Should prioritize luck early, since you're getting more levels with this character. Not that you needed it.

Hey Sifd, I have been really enjoying Brotato and your content for it! Could you please add the name of the Class you play into the title or something like that? I always want to look up how you play a certain character and it's not always easy to guess it from the thumbnail or title.

why not sell the grey weapon and replace it with the purple?

although i like discussions or feedback or analysis during/at the end, i'm sure there are people who just came for gameplay it's becoming lengthy enough for it to be a separate thing open a second channel or make separate video, i'm willing to watch it and just to clarify, gameplay good, commentary good, feedback good, all of them together good, 1/3 of video being something else not so much

After run SIFD was talking ≈14 minutes

imo the character unique should be more unique. Like, an extra option on level-up

Sifd please make deafeted the hardest diffculty with the demon

bahhh❤

I have a request because diff talked about padding with the character that unlocked padding for him being kind of op could you make a vid where you actually try that (note: if either he already has one or is actively working on it please tell me and then ignore this comment.)

Boom boom

I have time for video I leave comment for video

Comment

bro r u high?

HP Re-gen is BORING Cap HP at 30-40. Then go crazy damage or harvest offense is defense.

I’m sitting here yelling at screen to get the stats you are investing in then you get something you have like a 0 stat in, and I’m like get more of the big number you already have make it epic not balanced. BALANCED IS BORING GO BIG OR GO Home. Lot of harvesting go nuts, lots of damage go nuts. Look for 3 armor BORING. Attack speed or damage or harvesting. Big numbers.
