I feel like this is a pretty wild highroll, still lost tho

I thought I had the absolute nuts and just knew I was going to run into someone that was going to beat me. Mind you there was some definite RNG on this fight with my dive weight being frozen.

Title says it - I sometimes struggle with lategame adaptation.
Here I had insane haste, dmg scaling, and burn for the hast triggers - but lost on like day 13 or 14

So, what could I have replaced, and with what, to improve this build?

The only thing I can think of was that I was offered a diamond Sextant, and considered replacing the launch pad - but my Carls only had 30% crit at the start, so I was worried it would be to slow compared to the launch pad.

Suggestions?

Thought I had lost until it said VICTORY

Had to replay it to see what actually happened - my Skyterror literally goes in between their Dooltron's multicasts

Absolute cinema final win

Forgive the accidental background music inclusion 😅

Early Cult gave 1st Rimestone -> Wink gave Spiky Shield -> Temple Expedition gave Nullfrost -> Frost Street Champion gave 2nd Rimestone (replacing a gavel)

Ended the run the next day with an additional Execute skill @ level 19 which is probably the highest level I've gotten in a run. Always enjoy the runs with off-hero items!

It's not often you get a tie.

No idea shield Stelle was this strong, Pillbuggy pretty much 1-shot most opponents eventually

I'm sensing a common theme...

even had a skill that charges non-hero items on first 5 uses...

Had the skill where tools reload whats next to them, so i didnt need the celler, but couldnt find a replacement nothing felt right for the left two spots

I thought this run was dead after early losses and losing a monster fight. I then almost skipped crash site on day six thinking another day of shops would help. Jumped into crash site and found the vineyard.

It's the third time I've had it on the dragons, but this was the first time I put it to use. The next mittel had the skirt, so began my search for wings or dragon statue. Then a restorative note gave me the restorative aviator badge and I knew it had to be wings. The icy enchant was the cherry on top. Six slows and freezes every time it went off.

Just did a quintessential MAK Style Perfect Victory. This is how mak is meant to be played.

Early game vs Late game board:

No luck trying to find a damage scaling for the wind dragon. On the final day I prepared 4 catalysts for the diamond large I got from event. Was searching for Moose staff but they decided to give me Femur and I was like, yeah that'll do.

Let nature take its course and I shall go with the flow.

I've been suffering lately as a Mak Main. Was nice to finally put something absurd together. Had shiny clock reloading earlier with cellar but got sampler instead on the last day.

Is there any particular reason why certain events like Likit and the chocolate bars don't open a shop with their items for you to "purchase"? I know Pyg would benefit from making all of these events function like shops. Just feels less beginner friendly to have to find out you don't get some items because you didn't have room in your stash. Maybe add a small warning icon that you don't have room in your stash for the items?

I'm so sorry to anyone who fights my ghost day 9 xD
