29:32 not really i will tell you my story. First of all i bought the game in 2020 and beating 0 bc was the hardest thing to acchive it took me more than a month but i managed to do it, and then came 1bc which took a while but i beat it in the end, and then came my worst nightmare 2bc, i got stuck in 2bc for more than 3 or 4 months until i rage quit and left the game and never played it again. 4 years later i decide that i wanna go back to playing dead cells, i restart from 0bc and beat it easily and then i go and do some research just a small amount of youtube videos from you and other dead cells youtubers, and then i realized... All this game about is scrolls that's it get scrolls and you win if you see a cursed chest immediately open it don't even think about it if you see a challenge rift do not think about the consequences just enter it. so i went to the wiki looked for the path with most scrolls (prison quarters, toxic sewers, corrupted prison, ancient sewers, insufferable Crypt, graveyard, cavern, Guardian's Haven, and then immediately throne room by skipping high peak castle and still getting the 2 scrolls) After following this route i beat 1bc in 1 day and 2bc my nightmare i beat it in only 2 days and then 3bc in 4 days or so and then 4bc next week. within less than 2 weeks I reached 5bc and tbh i wasn't proud about it the game suddenly became super easy well not completely easy but way easier than what i remember from 2020. Now i am at 5bc and i can tell for sure the game suddenly became very hard to the point where i haven't reached hand of the king even once since i got to 5bc, of course if i give it my all i think i can beat 5bc in about 2 or 3 weeks but i am lazy. Anyway my tips for beating all the lower difficulties than 5bc is to simply: 1: put all your scrolls in one color 2: pick all of your 4 equipments from 1 color 3: try to upgrade the forge as much as you can 4: learn all the bosses attack patterns and how to dodge and parry them, once you do they barely do any damage to the point where i take more damage in biomes than boss rooms 5: pick as much scrolls as you can (if you want you can follow the route that i wrote) 6: pick any cursed chest that you see 7: enter any challenge rift you find 8: learn how to utilize the Spider rune it's very usefull 9: also learn how to utilize the homunculus rune it can come handy sometimes 10: and finally learn how to dodge and parry These are my tips for 4bc and lower and trust me it's very easy.

It took me 30 hours (According to steam) to beat 5bc twice. 5bc generally gets significantly more consistint as I played and got overall more fun. Tbh 5bc is the best part of dead cells.

Thanks a lot for a new videos of Dead Cells! I achieved already 4 BS and it was insane to achieve it. Now ofc i am straggling again in 4 BS but man, what a beautiful game. Everyday i practice between 5-10 runs in 4 BS to be prepared for the next stage. Thanks a lot for your videos man!

Great Vid Giant. I personally like going PQ>TS>CoPr>AS>IC>SS>Cav>Castle>TR since it provides the most scrolls and scroll frags, but sometimes I’ll substitute slumbering for Graveyard if I need health/cough syrup and Caverns for sepulcher if my build can’t handle anti-CC.

@DisappointedGiant

5 ай бұрын

That's a great route right there! I appreciate that no matter what route you take there's always a food shop in one of the biomes after the first boss. I find that taking Sepulcher instead of Cavern is also quicker since it's a smaller map. Cavern gets huge! (PS: I'm sorry for the late reply here, I've just started catching up on my comments from the past week or so!)

Thank god this video is in my feed...just died by the collector XD

After being stuck in 2BC for over a year… my dude, I got to 5BC in under a week thanks to your videos. I just did half a run in 5BC cause I panicked about the malaise, but I’m super pumped to try and get at least to the observatory now. Thank you!!!

Btw on mobile it aint updated enough so rn there is a movement boost on every enemy at 3 and higher and upgrades at 7 i think

I don't know why, but a part that really helped me actually beat 5bc is literally just mindset. I could barely even get past like ancient sewers. Yet the moment i was showing dead cells to my friend, i said to myself "ok i need to win because i want to prove my friend i am good at the game", and then suddenly i am 100% focused on playing as "competitively" as possible rather than casually. That, on top of my luck, and i suddenly beaten all of 5 bc and killed collector first try. I completely no-hit both of the challenge rifts i encountered and practically no-hit all biomes, except for taking incredibly minor hits like 1 damage poison puddles. Or have them blocked by foresight. I also flawlessly beat conjuctivius for the 2nd time(and for some reason only now got the flawless achievement). The first time i got a major hit was in the graveyard to a pit of spikes. Then proceeded to recover it from a quaranteed food item. I did this on BRUTALITY and not my usual survival. And the first time i used a health flask was all the way in the biome before the collector. Only to buy it again at the shopkeep and have 4 again. I got like 4 extra power scrolls from luck and great affixes. Then completely destroyed collector in like 30 seconds with my multi-hit combo legendary knife dance poison affix Abyssal trident "build". I did however end up chugging away 3 entire flask charges. I have NO idea why i both suddenly developed superpowers and the game just decided to bless me with top tier gear and all the scrolls. Beating the game at 35 brutality and only getting unlucky with amulets. THEN on the same day did another few 5 bc runs and after like 3 attempts did another succesfull attempt at 5 bc and beat the queen despite accidentally picking 2 entire off-color scrolls. While yesterday i occassionally died in prisoner's quarters. I would say if yiu want to beat 5 bc and improve, then you REALLY need to aim for it and not just "play the game". Though i will admit that with a mindset like this, the game becomes a lot closer to "delayed gratification". And you might have to practice anger control in that case. Even if i personally somehow raged less with my new adopted mindset.

Thank you for sharing all of this. It sounds like quite the journey! Funny how a shift in perspective can change so much, yeah? I have a friend who's in the middle of 4BC now and was talking about how he's trying to play to learn and farm instead of trying to win, which helps with controlling some of the frustration. What you described is part of the beauty of Dead Cells - sometimes things just line up both with you and the game and all of a sudden you've creamed the Collector in record time and your friend is sitting there seeing you as the pro you've become. Congrats on your 5BC wins!

It took me 2 months to be able to beat all boss cells. I'm finally resting of this game.

Pro tip (specially for 5BC) : gather as much enemies as you can in a safe environment (like a shop), use a strong trap and climb and stay attached to a wall, enemies wont attack you :) This will grant you huge comfort and spare malaise spreading

I played this through on 4bc and dropped it before a bunch of the updates came out idk if I could do 5bc without breaking a controller lol

BC is boss cells, which is the game's difficulty level. You get a boss cell when you beat the game, which allows you increase the difficulty all the way to 5BC (the hardest). If you're just starting the game I recommend checking out my tutorial playlist (starting at 0BC): kzread.info/head/PLh6h64y_RcdxIKrd5md7kJ9S6mYNpA_bO
