Overview

Kripp's Weights Combo build is a more defensive variant of a Bee build (here's an aggro one ), offering another path way to victory if you don't manage to find Atlatl + Crook (or you're tired of using them).

The combo uses Pygmalien's Weights item in combinations with fast healing to proc its effect: "When you heal while at Max Health, Charge this 2 seconds (2 seconds at Diamond rarity, 1 second at all others."

Although the Uwashiwali Bird was recently nerfed, it's still quite good, especially within the context of this build.

Outside of Freeze or Destroy comps, this build has mostly good matchups!

Core Combos and Synergies

Weights Combo Engine

Here's how the Weights Combo works:

  • Your Heals and other means help you stay at full Health.
  • You Heal yourself as many times as possible as often as possible to proc the Charge effect.
  • As a result, your Heal and Damage power scale up quickly.

With its Multicast potential, the Uwashiwali Bird is an ideal inclusion since it can offer ramp in quick bursts.

To activate its Property-based Multicast, this build uses the Vineyard and Beehive.

Kripp did find a Restorative Uwashiwali at the Herma vendor (sells Heal/Regeneration items), but that's difficult to plan around consistently.

The next core item for your engine is the Vineyard, which Heals every time you use an item. Since the Bird has Multicast along with your two weapons that can cast instantly, you'll virtually be activating Vineyard non-stop.

Kripparrian's second Enchantment upgraded the Vineyard into its Shielded version, making it now Heal AND Shield with each of your item uses. Again this is difficult to hit every time, but its a massive power spike if you can find it.

Beehive + Yo-Yo

The second Property used to proc the Bird's Multicast is the Beehive. In combination with the Yo-Yo, this is all you need to power your build's offense.

By placing the Bee adjacent to your Yo-Yo, you'll be dealing Damage non-stop since the Bee swings with EVERY opponent cast, and the Yo-Yo instantly casts with every adjacent use (your Charged Weights will be on the other side!).

The main "challenge" of using the Yo-Yo and Bee is finding ways to scale their Damage but you have it in spades with your Weights engine.

Supportive Items and Skills

Stash Value

A core fundamental of any successful Pygmalien run is generating value from your Stash. In this particular run, Kripparrian used Bootstraps to continually upgrade his items and Cash Register to keep boosting his cash flow.

Skills

Since your main engine focuses on staying at full health to ramp up, skills like Bonk and Lethargy can help slow down the pace against aggressive builds.

You'll almost always have the advantage since your damage sources don't rely on casting times and instead use instant triggers.

Along the same vein, skills like Defensive Stance and The Best Defense are incredibly valuable finds since they ramp up with each Weapon use!
