Toy worker

Power dogo is your friend.. you are going to use skills not auto attacks

Starter relics

For start you need Explosion scope,Special Charge Module and Exrium Power chip.
For Exrium Power you can swap Ace of Spades or Defense Suit of Retaliation (its not bettr but good enought if you dont have exrium

Explosion scope for now it deal 1% of enemy dmg and can be procted by skills,Special charge module so you can spam homing lasers, and Exrium for more dmg

Relics you are looking for...

Season upgrade

Skill upgrades

Anything for homing lasers is good
Shockwave + 200% skill power/shock status last twice as long
Dash +200% deff and 100% to all skill power on perfect dodge
Lightning slide On use magazine never depletes and imunity to all effects and 200% increased deff

How to play/What to do...

Mainly stay in safe spots... far away from bosses.. and spam homing (its on you.. i prefer stay back and let my teammate tank it.. and i just focus on dealing massive dmg)

Depend on luck you get 300% skill power... take it.. and melt the boss down using shockwave and then homing

Are you in problems? Nah not annymore.. that skill is your save button

Bosses and their annoying spells

Well this part is tricky.. no need to talk about first bosses.. the fun begin with Ice wheel.. be carefull in 3nd phase he start do rotating beams + ice around him. space clear, another circle,space clear and another circl.. its fatal if you get cought... ice will freeze u and beam will melt u down
next phase he start beam in one way just run behind the starting beam and keep shooting him... he will do circl of lasers... but with lightnin dash u are ok xD
last phase.. he will keep charging wheels and throwing them.. and then burnout away with ice path behind him.. not that crazy like first two..

Angry cats... Charging attacks about 5 attacks in row. run away!!
Jumping and make flame around them.. avoid it.. its hot!
And last.. they start throwing fireballs.. keep runing dont stop!

Last boss is easy.. i think no need to guide him.. xD

Weapon?

Anything that give u skill power/Attack power or with Power/critical box

GL & HF

For me it take about 20 runs to learn how to play good with that build...and survive bosses
Hf in getting the good relics... you dont need to buy anything for the first 3 bosses(if you want pure co and try to get most items..) Gl & HF in grinding (this is for campanella galaxy for normals it can be same just find relics boss dmg/skill power/ignore enemy deff/Melee Deff module and anything that give attack power

Thanks. I was advised to unlock this guy first (mainly wanting to play solo TBH, and my friend has finished the game on solo with this guy)

He only told me what pet to use and what relics to get though, the other stuff I had no idea about.

Hopefully this guide will fill in the blanks.

What does GL & HF mean?

Spunt [author] 14 Dec, 2021 @ 10:00am

About Explosion its dealing 1000% of enemy dmg.. so even that u dont basick attack that often its still good for more dmg not sure if it work for rmb it scale with Skill power and count as skill

afraid I kinda have to hard disagree with this. In the game's current state at least, Special Charge Module and Explosion Scope are too vital to his kit. It could be worth at least considering or mentioning the following;

Special charge module gives a 5% chance to reset your own cooldown when using a skill. it might not sound like much, but his RMB attack hits dozens of times on a single use so its almost certain to proc as long as you actually hit something with it, the same for his Q. This would also free up a bunch of "skill CD" skill points.

The reason the Explosion Scope is used is because of the same reason; his RMB hits so many times that even at 1% chance, its bound to trigger at least once per skill use for massive damage, same with his Q if you sit on an enemy.
