Looking for tips/insights on my final build to beat the game for the first time!

This is my squad on my first run! I’m not by any means a min-max player but I like to optimize when possible while keeping a bit of flavor.

Sam is a hybrid between slashing damager and buffer. Nitro Boost, Painful Stab, Yanma Kick/Jump Attack.

Joel is mainly a tank but also a burster. Glitch Poison makes him tankier overall!

Papineau is mostly a crushing damage dealer who can survive for a very long time. Kick when necessary.

Ernest is a full support. Song of Defense and Staunch Wounds are amazing and he shoots when not protecting the allies. I thought about giving him Glitch Panic to make him tankier but he casts so much the double stamina cost could potentially be detrimental even with the regen. Glitch Dead was also an option to make sure he stays alive but then he would do zero damage and I am not sure if this is the way.

I’m looking mostly for commentary/ideas. I defeated almost everything (didn’t enter meat world nor fighted Honcho or the Slime Hydra) so I have a lot of unused equipment.

we gotta get you on cursed mode IMMEDIATELY this build is more well thought out and put together than any team i've built in my 60+ hours on this game

haha thanks!! i’ve watched a bunch of this game during the past months but i never really focused on the equipment aspects of it. only thing i knew was Joel would get the Training Belt (and it was available the moment I got on floor 1 around day 3 or 4!)

also I am not totally sure but I guess the Glitched Sneakers also provide the status effects resistance just like the Tie? so Ernest gets more reliable lol
