4:02 I've had had situation in which the hired hand bounces, hits the scepter, and misplaces it so that you end up losing it, so what I do is, after leaving the scepter there I grab the hired hand and drop it in a corner.

"this thing you suggested is a terrible idea, this item you used is awful and useless" Lol do people not understand there are six million ways to play the game? You're just suggesting a method you found works really well and turns 7-99 into a different sort of challenge, it's any player's choice whether to try it out or not

True. Everyone plays the game a little bit differently. It’s the beauty of rogue likes. It’s a fair point though. Yellow cape might even take more skill with platforming for the average players compared to jetpack. Especially if you don’t have springs + climbers. I’ve heard of a few players getting their first win with the mustard cape though so I thought it was worth mentioning.

Oh you meant the Scepter not the Yellow cape didn’t you. Whoops. My brain lagged. Yeah 100% agree, thanks. I can’t take credit for the idea though. I got the idea from an old Reddit post where someone posted their first win and it was with the Scepter

@@creativeusernvme I didn't mean anything in particular, I saw two people that were criticizing multiple things you recommended/suggested in the video (including ever using a parachute as well as just the entire concept) in the most general manner possible. Not even because they thought you could have done it in a better way or you weren't clear on anything, just because they couldn't fathom how something radically different from what they did could possibly be viable. It's kind of absurd to me.

Switching jetpack for cape is aweird advice, if you don't want a bomb on your back just bring vlad's cape, if you are attempting 7-99 you should know how to do vlad's cape skip
@creativeusernvme

I have a friend who recently got his first 7-99 with the yellow cape so I thought it was worth mentioning as an option. Is it the best option? Nah. Would I personally prefer a yellow cape over a Jetpack? Nah. Is it an option if you’d rather not lose your run to a looping Magmar or Flaming Olmite? Yes. Also I agree that learning Vlads cape skip is a useful skill especially if you go the temple route but only a very small percent of players can do V.C.S (way more can do Jetpack Qilin skip) so should a very small percent of players be the only ones who attempt 7-99? I don’t think so.

All of this I already knew except the don't be worried about spending resources part. Everyone else always says use the clone gun at the sun challenge for 99 ropes and bombs...that way you get 1.09 bombs per level in the cosmic. That is also the most recent Elden Ring patch...lolz. And bombs can be easy or super hard to find dependant on rng. But, I'm no expert despite my 2000 hours with this game. 7-51 is my pb so I must be doing something wrong. Though if I had to guess...I would say only about 2% if not less of people who have bought this game have even made it to the ocean. Probably .1% of people reach 7/99.

I mostly would just reset on 1-2 store until I got mobility unfortunately. Super boring. Other than that I used seeded runs when the game wouldn’t give me a jetpack. On the seed 00000001 there’s a jetpack in the crust on the 1-1 entrance. You just bomb the tiles under the entrance. Good practice seed 👍
