Basically no damage loss for Acrid, and a HUGE damage boost for my friends, because they are stacking so many proc items. Best part is that the venom spit on M2 looses all cooldown, so ou can finally spam it on those pesky flying monsters.

Egocentrism is a beautifully designed item that puts the value of items in Ror2 through a unique perspective, an effect unlike anything else the game has to offer. And of course, with enough items, ego statistically has ZERO downside. It's just hard damage, that scales in range, frequency, and even more damage. And of course, cleansing pools are a thing. And because of those, ego is just a win win like 99% of the time. I have a hard time seeing why anyone could consider it NOT in the top 10 (at the very least) of the best items in the game. Im extremely biased probably but im just saying, it is unbelievably powerful and fun

As someone who does a lot of Simulacrum runs, I'd be interested in your item tiering with that in mind. For example, looping and final bosses are irrelevant and while scrappers/printers do exist, you have limited (sometimes time-limited) access to them and instead are often choosing an item with two other choices to compare against. My personal goal is to get to wave 60-80 with each attempt as there's a mod that lets you end your run for lunar coins at those points. The same mod adds a TON of additional worthwhile content to Simulacrum which would be stale without it.

It also might partially be because speed doesn't perfectly correlate to damage mitigation.

Its definitely horrid if you just pick it up as your second item in a run but its not really built for it being a casual item, its a self-imposed throttle with a benefit attached.

You can stack these all you want, but you should only have 1 item type for each color. I love this challenge run. I thought of it myself and I got hooked on it for months.

Lunar items usefulness differ based on character. Some characters don't need cooldown reduction for normal gameplay, others do.

I feel like stone flux would be useful on someone like huntress. Maybe not in early game but mid game, cause she has agile so she can shoot while sprinting and just generally has a lot of movement anyways. It *could* be useful on merc or loader (mostly loader) but the problem with merc is that once your dashes run out… then what? 2/3 of loader’s non-primary abilities are movement, unless you count thunderslam or whatever its called. I don’t consider the electric dome ability a mobility ability cause you require another ability for it to be useful.

Purity is undeniably good on desperado bandit where proc items are not as important and instead it Will let you stack tokens and one shot enemies constantly

Ranking rock paper scissors is easy. Scissors is on top since you can do a little snip snip motion with it, rock is a close second because it’s a classic, solid, and confident move, and paper is the worst because it’s paper.

Purity is based as fuck with desperato, it’s almost never worth it otherwise.

I'd say your take on egocentrism is a bit biased and thus, not entirely true. In fact, an average assortment of items in a run is entirely outclassed by the same amount of egoes you get from converting its items in terms of simply dealing damage, because it scales in 2 aspects at a time - range and cooldown, which makes its value with each stack increase a lot more than that of the average item. Now, of course, egocentrism is just a "no build, pure ego" kind of items and that's just not too fun or fair to play, which is the valid criticism in this case. Ego isn't weak. Ego is just boring.
