I knew about the cooldown resets but somehow never learned about the projectile cleansing, what an interesting interaction. There's always something to learn, good video!

i almost thought this was summoning salt

i always knew blast shower was borderline broken but i didnt know about the safer spaces stuff that is actually crazy 🤯

I knew about most of these tips before watching but I didnt know about the part with the telegraphed moves. My Blast Shower appreciation is off the charts; great vid Cap!

the fact Singularly Bands have a 1.0 proc coefficient singlehandedly makes it better than the other two in my opinion

Enjoying this series, I thought your last video was brilliant, but this video is really a blast

go take a shower

with enough gesture of the drowned you can blast shower's effects to be constant (granted, its very loud and kind of hard to look at) but it basically makes you immortal

The release of the void dlc with the overtuned collapse and fire debuff at the time made me always take blast shower when i saw it unless i already had a raincoat. Then i noticed all the stuff it did in addition to cleansing debuffs and thats when it hit me just how underrated the item was. Sure it doesnt have the granduer of the BFG or the reliable bursts of royal capacitor, but its utility is absolutely massive.

Almost spat my water when i heard safer spaces. Arguably the best defensive item EVEN MORE BROKEN.

Nice, finally blast shower getting the spotlight

It's about damn time

One of my favorite strategies (perhaps not the most optimal but fun nonetheless) is a survivor who can reliably proc bands with blast shower, purity, and gesture.

I’ve been telling my friends for so long that blast showers good so I’ll share this video

Let me know what your favorite equipment in the game is! Better see a couple Blast Showers 🎒💧

Heard about pizza deletion from that one Race stream long ago, but i didn't know it worked on many other projectiles as well, thats awesome. Great video, and fav equipment by far is recycler.

Finally, the blast shower tech getting the coverage it deserved.

As someone who plays with a group who typically go the “boring” build routes (infinite bleed, Shatterspleen AoE damage, etc), it’s nice to find a video to show them on just how powerful other builds can be. This is really well made for such a small channel, well done my man keep up the great work :)

Man, I've been sleeping on Blast Shower.

one of my favorite things to do is run command, Railgunner with Marksman, get a gesture, get blast shower, and just start stacking fuel cells, bands, and syringes or mochas. eventually you can get such a low cooldown on the blast shower that its effectively ALWAYS procing, which means that the bands will always be active. coupled with the fire rate and maybe any atgs or charged perforators you get along the way, it just demolishes everything in your path. its not the most effective build, nor is it the most efficient build, but to me its the simplest and most satisfying xD

This vid get me hyped again of ror2 mechanics, it's so interesting that I never noticed this before. Never stop to test even the most "useless" items!

even though I already knew everything the video was still entertaining

Holy shit did I just hear the word "trimp" used outside of the context of TF2? That's an instant like from me.

Fuck yeah from We're Finally Landing to Anahita's Call

I've been using blast shower a lot lately because of how good and underrated it is, nice to see it getting its own video

>starts video >first note of We're finally here Yeah, this is gonna get wild.

That's super swell. I didn't know about the projectile deleting part of the blower. Very cool video :)

Ive been using shower/spaces builds for awhile but never realized it interacted with the bands. This is very interesting 🤔

Dude has that SummoningSalt intro, that is actually sick as hell though. Love your content and your channel

Cap guide videos go so.. so.. so. sososososososososoooooooooooo hard!!! Thx so much dude

Words cannot describe how much I love your choices of music for this video

Fantastic video, I love Risk of Rain Two. It always feels like there is a new combo or build to try out!

This video was fire! Only critique is hit the intro a bit harder on the drop of the song like summoning salt! Hit us with a “this is the overpowered potential. . . of blast shower” *beat drop* on the drop mid intro song and then fade to title 🔥 the topic was made super interesting and investing so it was great so so well done!

I love the hidden tech series you have going, keep it up!!!

Havn't even played RoR2 for a whole month, so this is all new to me! Thank you!

5:25 oh god. I suddenly got startled. I thought I was suddenly playing terraria again. despite having a different game minimized in the background. X_X

Blast Shower has always been top of S tier in my eyes. I've had full uptime on it so many times and all this time I NEVER knew it deleted projectiles too. Granted, many other equipments can outperform it but require some insane luck to do what blast shower can do with a single stack of 1 item

I grabbed a couple stacks of eulogy zero, an ungodly amount of gestures and fuel cells, got some bands and a few plimps. I was able to sic about 30 fire tornados on a single enemy. It was glorious.

Oh, no, this fuckin Deadbolt music, I cant, its so fuckin good...

bro used home, deadbolt music, and FTL music im subbing

One thing I'd like to note about the Safer Spaces tech is that stacking Safer Spaces also reduces its cooldown so it's not *quite* as important. It's still really nice to have with low stacks, but once you get a few of them going it slowly becomes less and less relevant. Everything else is on point though.

Lowering the cooldown of Safer Spaces with more stacks of it is pretty hard, especially pre-loop, each stack doesn't reduce it that much. Plus being able to activate it whenever you want is ridiculously useful, especially for more telegraphed attacks. Can't count the amount of times I've blocked Mithrix's pizza with blast shower + safer spaces.

I legit thought this would was a joke video or something. I’ve never heard that Blast Shower could do any of this, and basically don’t use it myself. Looks like the latter of those will be changing!

Keep this types of videos, the are so good! New subscriber here

Very cool video cap. Had no idea about the projectile cleansing

incredible video quality. you deserve way more subs

I had no idea blast shower had this much utility! Definitely have to try it out when I go back to RoR2.

be careful with mythrix, i had a stack of 50 safer spaces and he smacked me with that hammer, it still killed me. very spooky.

I didn't even know there WERE that many debuffs

Loved the information you brought! I like your video essay format, but did have a few hopefully helpful critiques! Your transitions between topics (and when giving examples are really long. It ends up adding a ton of time to the video and can make watching a bit tedious. Hope you keep going up & up with your videos :)

Thanks, I thought the walls were projectiles, but I hadn't confirm it for myself. I had seen walls disappear before when other players were captain, but I couldn't figure out where their origin was (as I don't play captain much myself)

Blast Shower has been a D tier equip for me since it was released, super cool to see that it has interesting and unique use cases that legitimize keeping it in runs. Yeah, top-tier equips are usually way more useful, but simply having this knowledge is honestly enough to bump Blast Shower up to A tier for me, especially on higher difficulties. Insane stuff, thank you

Most of these I knew but holy the band atg interaction is insane… you can easily oneshot most bosses even mithrix like that with just a couple stacks of each

One of my personal favorite equipments, blast shower!

Holy shit, blast shower just became a completely different item for me

I never picked up this item, I will be taking now.

I knew all of this! I made a build like that in a modded command run like a year and a half ago.

While i agree that blast shower is a very underrated equipment. I also feel like it mainly shines before the first loop unless you have quick uptime with a gesture. If you dont have gesture blastshower is not worth later on because at one point you die in one hit, you also can no longer just rely on just bands the further you go. The further you go the more you need proc chains. Overall i agree that blast shower shouldn’t be overlooked.

This is crazy. We always complain when we get one of these 😂

The safer spaces cooldown remove is so good now I can use fuel cells as shields against Mithrix instead of stacking them.

Nice FTL music. I've listened to it so much.

Damn I will no longer be skipping this item

Wow ok i did not know a good chunk of this. Awesome video. One thing i would like to know is if gesture + blast shower only goes off when there’s something to cleanse. That would make the blast shower much easier to use since you wouldnt have to time anything. Definitely going to try some of this!

Blast shower, runalds and kjaros, gesture of drowned, fuel cells x15-25, atgs, soul bound catalyst

did a coop run in eclipse 2 as bandit the other day with shower and 4 gesture + 2 fuel cell plus a singularity band and cheesed mithrix hard it was such an anti-climax that my friends and I couldn't help but la8as mithrix just stood in the air in the center of the arena for two whole phases

very informative, TY

Love ye Cap, keep up the good work. I wish you could have made a video on tincture before they nerfed a lot of the items that worked well with it.

Blast shower is the S+ equipment item for me, only followed by executive card. As someone who enjoys endurance runs in RoR2 (especially now that I removed mob level cap) this item solves the issue that late game RoR2 runs can encounter: One Shot Protection. OSP is useless when enemies have delayed damage. Blast cleansing overloading projectiles alone made it a must have for me. The huge spike in DPS that it provides is also just a cherry on top.

Somehow, I knew all of this except the Mithrix pizza, even though I've used it on other telegraphs and floor pools, I just never thought that attack was a projectile. Then again I also usually just dodge that one since I'm used to it's timings.

6:10 careful here tho, even with blast shower cleansing safer spaces every possible tick, you can still die to mythrixs jump

FTL music outta nowhere 🤩😍

Damn, I've heard the music sound at the beggining and thought this was summoning salt video.

Yo the FTL music at the end

the atg thing definitely sold me on it. thats so much damage jesus

this is crazy , i had no idea about this xD

damn, I already knew blast shower was good, but I didn't know it was that good

yooo Ratcrid skin. Love your educational content, Cap.

My biggest problem with the bands is that they don't work as well for high rate of fire characters like Commando, but this seems like it would dramatically increase their value in such cases. I'll have to try it sometime

Yea, I never used this equipment. I may have to try out these synergies

40 fuel cells + 1 gesture and you will gain charges for use items faster than you can use them and with this and safer spaces youd be actually unkillable

As much as I love blast shower, I don't think I'd advocate for it this much lol

i never realized how insane Blast Shower would be with some combination of Gestures and Fuel Cells. a constant, albeit small aura of projectile deletion, and near infinite band procs, alongside loads of other things

@minerturtle45

like shower + a gesture + a couple cells + a single safer spaces would basically make you invincible with like 5 or 6 items total

Wait a moment, this isn't summoning salt!

i like how the community has figured out all this tech with merc, behemoth, and blast shower, but nobody seems to know why the planet has killed you cause of death happens

Projectile cleansing sounds awesome, never noticed it! I do wonder how big the range and the duration is for that, in case you want to cancel a direct projectile like that big rock.

Combined with multiple of lunar item that halves the cool down as well as safer spaces.

the song... hefest... wirtual... ......................

I knew it was good!

i did not know that it refreshed the cd of bands and safer spaces thats crazy perhaps i judged you too harshly.....

Finally, Risk of Rain 2 players have learned the value of taking a shower.

I’m not sure it works like this, but can’t a band proc proc ATG Missle, so you can proc bands, proc atg, use blast shower, and proc bands again getting insane multiplicative damage?
