Welcome to the Demon Build Guide, where we'll help you create an effective strategy for your run using "Ghost Scepter" as our main weapon.
In this guide, we'll take a practical approach to crafting a winning setup for Demon . Our main focus will be getting a lot of HP from the scepters so we can buy everthiing from the shop.
Let's get started on refining your strategy and achieving better results in your battles.
The first 3 waves
We start with Ghost Scepter for this build, they dont scale at all but the sinergy between them and Demon is beyond overpowered. Later on, you can transition to another weapon with strong scale, like Obliterator, Laser Gun or even Shotguns.
During the initial 3 waves, prioritize getting as much Ghost Scepters as possible, sooner we build them to lv 4, the faster we scale. So our character buys stuff from the shop with HP and not materials, and at the end of each wave, 50% of our materials get converted to HP, so our strategy here is to roll multiple times and buy everything we can with our HP. At this stage we'll start the waves with 0/1 HP, so becareful, because one hit and the run is over.
For items, Demon buys everything, from Ranged Damage items to Turrets, the approach is to build multiple sources of damage. We also need to buy some HP items, so we can purchase even more in the shops, always buy the HP items first and them the damage item, this way you'll never run out of HP's. Here's a list of the items you'll need:
For stats, HP, obviously, but we also need some Ranged Damage and Attack Speed for our Ghost Scepters. But if you can't find them, a high value Luck is also a good call, since Luck help us getting more valuable items.
The mid-game transition
Now, it's time for us to make preparations and transition into the mid-game phase.
So we built lv 4's Scepters and we're farming a decent amount of HP in each wave, but, we still need more, keeping doing the same strategy as the early game. BUY EVERYTHING!
Here's a list of some of those items:
For stats we keep the same strategy as the early-game, but this time we're also looking for some high value Life Steal.
The late-game transition
Now we have a lot of damage coming from everywhere, but, since we bought everything at this points, we slow down the buying and stack HP for the Boss/Elites fight, and focus only on great value items.
Here's some items for this phase in the run:
For stats, we need only the essencial and with high value, like Life Steal, Ranged Damage, Luck, Engineering, Damage and Attack Speed, we need to get ready to end the run with a win!
Conclusion
And there you have it, one of the most broken characters in the game, high risks but a higher reward for sure, Demon is also great after wave 20, with a good transition weapon the snowball wont stop!
