Which crest are you using?

[–] edinbruh@feddit.it 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Beast with long claw. It's wide and the up attack reaches far behind hornet. I find it comfortable for juggling

[–] CarrieForle@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You did not score a 71 with beast pogo right 😭

Nono! I meant for juggling! I did bounce with wanderer. Tho I only started using wanderer yesterday when I realised I can just use longclaw to extend its puny range. Before that my main was reaper, I used it for everything except broodmother and unravelled

not sure if longclaw affects it tho, it seems that all tools are off when you do challenges. also, realising one thing helped me a lot in this challenge. i may say it if you like (but maybe you already know)

[–] edinbruh@feddit.it 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

It does not affect it, but I checked after posting that, but I didn't know.

Sure, shoot, I'm gonna use all the help I get for this. Except getting shaman crest, I'm dead set on doing his before progressing further in act 3.

P.s. also, I'm back to reaper, I think it lingers just a bit longer than beast and it's basically just as large. I'm not sure tho

it's not necessary to strike up to juggle them. you can do a regular strike sideways. i didn't notice it from the beginning, but it did help me a lot completing the challenge. i also didn't jump too high and mostly ran sideways sweeping the ground when there are a lot of fleas, and especially when they happened to land far away from each other. but of course, try to "group them" and send same direction as best as you can.

[–] edinbruh@feddit.it 2 points 1 week ago

Ah, I already knew that. But I think they go further when you strike sideways. Anyway, in the meantime I got 37, so I'm fine, for now

After a certain event, the high score ceiling will be raised and you’ll have to do these again :) that is if you want to beat that new high score as well

[–] edinbruh@feddit.it 1 points 1 week ago

Someone already told me, but that's a later problem for later me. Also, I'm not sure what that drops, but it does not drop pale oil
