Welcome to another exciting episode of **BATTLES WITH BUST**! In Episode 620, we’re diving into the strategic world of **Backpack Battles** with a focus on the Ranger class. This week, we’re exploring the new skills patch and how it impacts gameplay. Let’s delve into the strategic decisions that can lead to victory in this thrilling game.
### Starting Strong with the Ranger
In this episode, we kick off with the Ranger class, equipped with a Ranger bag. The initial setup is crucial, and we start by making strategic choices with available items. The first decision involves crafting a shovel, which, while not ideal for the Ranger, is a cost-effective start. However, the real game-changer is obtaining the wooden buckler early on, which is essential for sustainability in combat.
### Building the Perfect Loadout
As we progress, the focus shifts to optimizing the backpack space. The challenge is fitting key components like the thorn buckler, garlic, and pocket sand. The choice between lucky clovers and pocket sand is pivotal, as each offers unique advantages. While clovers provide critical hit chances, pocket sand can disrupt opponents’ strategies.
### Crafting and Upgrading Weapons
The episode highlights the importance of weapon crafting and upgrading. Early investment in a wooden sword allows for future upgrades to powerful weapons like the falcon blade or long sword. It’s crucial to balance spending and ensure you have the resources for key upgrades later in the game.
### Navigating the Mid-Game
As the mid-game unfolds, the focus shifts to maintaining stamina and managing resources. The introduction of items like the walrus tusk and wet stone enhances weapon capabilities. The strategic use of items like the banana for stamina recovery becomes increasingly important as battles intensify.
### Adapting to Opponents’ Strategies
Throughout the episode, BUST emphasizes the need to adapt to opponents’ strategies. The decision to pivot from a markswoman build due to a lack of bows showcases the importance of flexibility. Instead, the focus shifts to building a thorn whip and eventually transitioning to a thorn bloom build, which synergizes well with the smelly wall for early game armor boosts.
### Late Game Strategy and Decision Making
As the game progresses, BUST explores various late-game strategies. The choice between poison ivy and Beast Master skills is critical, depending on the build’s focus. The episode underscores the importance of understanding when to push for late-game dominance and when to settle for a solid mid-game build.
