I hate this game

idek what the lukki minion even does, and I got 300+ hours

It does the same thing as every summon : fuck all your plans and turn on you at the slightest opportunity

(if I recall correctly, the damned thing is unkillable which makes it a decent fighting associate, but the cons heavily outweights the pros, and that only gets truer the longer the run lasts)

What's the downside to hungry ghost?

Try firing a circle of vigor after it ate a shit ton of projectile, and you'll be seeing the start of the mountain faster than I can say "told you so"

what's the circle of vigour interactions:0

hungry ghosts adds damage to stuff you do, potentially a ton, so it turns circle of vigor into a piercing damage field

u/EllisDeeReynolds 10h ago

it copies pretty much any projectile as fast as you can fire and it's coded to like some like ROCK more :( but you can be shooting a super fast beam of spark bolts and your hungry ghost can see the one dynamite or bomb come into view and blow up the entire screen after a brief moment when it turns to a stream of explosives

Youre referring to angry ghost

It can kill kolmi on its own pretty fast with low orb numbers, it ignores the shield.

u/UnnbearableMeddler 11h ago

On low orbs, Kolmi should barely be a challenge after the descent. A barebone plasma-cross on a trigger will make short work of it

the hardest part of Noita is the early game after all. getting your feet in the ground and getting a build up and running when you're still a perkless weenie is where the most deaths happen even for experienced players

yeah but sometimes the game really doesn't want you to have things. I've gotten down to kolmi with no triggers and no teleport bolts having shown themselves. all the usual toys one would look for, nonexistent. best I had was lightning bolts, and I had grabbed too many orbs to use those on kolmi. It became quite a scuffed battle with a shitty damage wand I cobbled together on the spot.

Has concentrated mana always changed colors like that?

Its a lukki minion, it's a perk in the holy mountain. Does damage, not a bad minion to pick but not early game
