Welcome back to another intriguing episode of BATTLES WITH BUST. In Episode 641, BUST dives into the depths of The Bazaar, scrutinizing the complexity of the latest patch update. Let’s unravel the nuances and strategies together.
Understanding the November 13th Patch
In this episode, BUST explores the changes from the unceremoniously named November 13th patch. Significant updates include the transformation in champions’ level-up item selection. Previously, leveling up resulted in fewer beneficial options, especially when storing items for later use. Now, players can expect up to five choices, aligning more closely with their strategic needs.
Notable Nerfs in the New Patch
The patch nerfed several aspects, including the heavy hitters like Pigmalien’s crook and Vanessa’s aquatic landmark. These changes prompted a strategic pivot in gameplay, compelling players to reconsider their approaches.
The Challenge with Dooley
BUST emphasizes the struggle many players are experiencing with Dooley in this new patch. Dooley’s builds are notably time-sensitive and face destruction even before they’re fully activated, often falling prey to aggressive tactics from Vanessa’s throwing star or Pigmalien. Attempts to leverage shield-based strategies also falter in this environment.
Exploring Strategies with Dooley
Despite these challenges, BUST shares potential entry points for successful Dooley gameplay. Kicking off with the ignition core offers early stability, albeit with limited long-term utility. As the game progresses, BUST considers various items like Walter Cooler to supplement health and a new weapon might emerge as the game’s pace intensifies.
The Force Field and Bunker Strategy
One of the episode’s key experiments was integrating the force field with the bunker. The force field setup intends to maximize shields for massive damage output. However, BUST notes an ineffective synergy between these two, indicating that the fusion might not be optimal.
New Learnings and Considerations
Interestingly, using the bunker with the armadillo showed unexpected potential. This combination could pave the way for innovative strategies where poison and shield-based tactics might synergize into a formidable gameplay approach.
