@Rethala oh

oh heck

/don't bother with the challenge rooms/

they will kick your metal (rubber? whatever you're made of back there) ass.

Mostly the flies. If flies spawn... well, you can't run, you're locked in there with them!!

So yeah, don't feel bad about not being able to do the challenge rooms. They're SO not worth it.

@Rethala Also, DO NOT go down the basement stairs yet, if you find them.

That's a DLC-type area [not in the sense of being paid, but it was added later]; it's not like you need any better /equipment/ but you need /skills/, and you aren't that good yet. You will die, fast. We die, fast.

...Or maybe it's just that we don't know the attack patterns of the enemies there. Either way yeah, it's deadly.

Just hit the first boss instead, take the normal route.

@Rethala Practice is what gets you that, fortunately! :3

Over time you'll also get a feel for what enemies are the most dangerous and their attack patterns.

@Rethala sorry, term we picked up from aikido class back in the day – "situational awareness", paying attention to the situation around you so you're ready to react

@Rethala They can be REALLY hard to see. :3

@Rethala And probably most importantly, zanshin! Gotta keep an eye on the enemies and where they all are – don't wanna get whacked in the back, because 4 hits and you're dead.

@Rethala Hee! Yeah, the guns vary WIDELY in how effective they are. So do the items.

Don't forget stat upgrade altars as well! Particularly range – "TOO FAR" is common and aggravating.

@Rethala Hecc. :<

@Rethala How's BPM goin'?

@Rethala Oooh nice! :3

@Rethala *purrs and wags*

How're y'all?

*barks and licks @Rethala[Rubi or whoever's fronting]!*

@Lotherme OwO.

@Lotherme It's institutionalized abuse, I think.

So fucking glad we never went to public school.
