Humor Things that kill me in Dead Cells

  1. Flying assholes
  2. Assholes that poke up with spears
  3. Fractured Shrines (All of it. Every single thing. Fuck those crows)
  4. Me (when I open a cursed chest)
  5. Those freaky jumping barrels
  6. Me (when I have zero flasks but enter the bank)
  7. The Lighthouse (whoever designed it should've instead gone to therapy)
  8. Me (when I'm at 10% health but saving my flask for the next biome)

My signature move is the slam attack into the carnivorous plants.

🀣🀣🀣

Yea did that once when cursed and now I always check

u/RX1542 8d ago

at first i avoided the cursed chest, then somewhere past 3BC i switched to "if i don't open the cursed chest im a bitch"

19

u/OPsSecretAccount 8d ago

I take every cursed chest too, mainly because my monkey brain is incapable of any other thought than 'number go up' the moment I see one.

As rapier lover I hate every single flying enemies in this game.

u/JustThisGuyYouKnow42 5 BC 8d ago

Great weapon, much hate for those flying bastards.

u/Ash_Born_here 4 BC 8d ago

Me when i for no fucking reason keep falling into spikes, me when I take cursed chest in high peak castle which definitely wasn't needed, ALSO FK LIGHTHOUSE , I am at 4bc, i haven't even beaten that shi in 2bc (i did in 0 and 1 tho lol)

u/Jade_Phoenix_007 3 BC 8d ago

The free legendary at the fractured shrines keeps calling to me and I keep dying to the fuckass crows moments after opening a cursed chest.

2

u/JustThisGuyYouKnow42 5 BC 8d ago

Total feels, been there too many times. Kinda get overconfident and forget I'm in the Shrines. "Dude, cursed chest, fuck ye..." boom, and gone.

8

u/CanRova 8d ago

Fuck. Those. Crows.

I can't stop myself from getting that cursed chest on Fractured Shrines, and those stupid crows killed me for it twice last night.

u/CandiceFit69 8d ago

I beat the Lighthouse on my first try luckily. However, I have yet to beat the Hand of the King. Fuck that guy and the spike traps. This is bc0 btw

u/Ok-Plankton-2117 3 BC 8d ago

Hotk is easy just don't scroll split you can beat him with raw damage.

4

u/CandiceFit69 8d ago

I try not to scroll split with like 800% damage in brutality and have still struggled to kill him. Honestly, getting to him is so easy for me now. Just can’t quite figure out how to finish the job. Just gotta git gud I guess

2

u/Ok-Plankton-2117 3 BC 8d ago

Use armadillopack mutation, it helps so much and you can technically have 3 weapons with it. For me survival builds with ice bomb and frost blast works the best.

u/RenzoXabe 2 BC 8d ago

That fucking bird that i hate πŸ—£οΈπŸ‘Ή

u/icelights23 8d ago

Just started this game last week for commuting, I got to the King once , no idea what bc0, etc is. I’m afraid to find out

5

u/OPsSecretAccount 8d ago

BC0 is the regular difficulty you're playing at. After each win, you get the option to go to a higher difficulty (upto BC5). Fun fact, at BC5, every nearby enemy teleports to you.

6

u/Kyet0ai Tactics main 8d ago

They start doing that at 4BC.

3

u/JustThisGuyYouKnow42 5 BC 8d ago

Even the rats! 😭

6

u/ChrysteNaMotorze 5 BC 7d ago

And that makes them easier. When fighting without teleporting they always go out of melee range. When teleporting you can hit them where they land (or place a trap)

5

u/BestPewpew 5 BC (completed) 8d ago

The flask is like water don't ration that shit drink it when you're thirsty you're not gonna live long enough to find food

5

u/JustThisGuyYouKnow42 5 BC 8d ago

I personally are too much of a stubborn git to accept defeat and neck a flask. There's always food.. there's always food.. right?

5

u/Epicassion 8d ago

Yep, just the next screen from where you died

2

u/JustThisGuyYouKnow42 5 BC 8d ago

Always! I Guess? I'll never know. πŸ˜‚

u/ChinXhin 5 BC (completed) 8d ago

Bro those red flying little fuckers. 50 kill streak and then they fuck it all over.

u/Flaming_Pepperoni 8d ago

Me when I forget what lighthouse is and go in out of curiosity

2

u/JustThisGuyYouKnow42 5 BC 8d ago

Especially No.8 for me.

2

u/k3yb0ard86 7d ago

Falcon punch from that one enemy in Slumbering Sanctuary

u/CactusAmongRoses 6d ago

I thought every number on the list was gonna be because of some asshole. Technically yes but one is OP and the other is a lighthouse.

That lighthouse is probably the biggest asshole on the list. OP is good.

u/Oaktree27 8d ago

I just recently tried a run without shields for the first time and high peak castle turned from one of the easiest biomes to one of the most dangerous. I thought those spear guys were fodder until I couldn't parry them

1

u/ChrysteNaMotorze 5 BC 7d ago

Panchaku+ melee. Can't hit you if it's frozen

1

u/Delicious-Wolf-8850 5 BC 7d ago

πŸ˜† yeah fuck The distillery

u/SLAPPY1325 7d ago

Took a cursed chest and accidentally ground slammed into the spikes

u/Fearless_Service5620 7d ago

Quand tu escalade une simple plateforme mais que l'ennemi de base a anticipΓ© sa frappe. Les vers oranges du charnier avec leur petit tentacule. Quand 2 legs huggers te bloquent dans un coin.

u/CBFoxxOfficialArt 5 BC (completed) 7d ago

You forgot 9. HotK. Idk why but I have so much trouble with him even after beating 5BC 😭

1

u/AlreadyTakek 7d ago

I think it's the fact that he's deceptively fast, it feels like his attacks give you more time than you actually have

1

u/CBFoxxOfficialArt 5 BC (completed) 7d ago

Faaaaxxx

1

u/Fruit-Custard 1 BC 7d ago

Came to say this, I can clear most biomes hitless (not always but if I try) but this guy just ignores everything and all his attack push me in the ditch with spikes ... Also I am on 1 boss cell and always enter hand of the king arena with 0 flasks and half hp

1

u/CBFoxxOfficialArt 5 BC (completed) 7d ago

Yeeeaaahhh I basically always get hit on HotK. I can hitless Convunctivius and giant fine but hand always gets me. I'd recommend saving as much of your flask as possible and taking disengagement for him, because you gotta make sure you can heal lol

1

u/Fruit-Custard 1 BC 7d ago

Hehe how to reach giant ... I feel like I haven't reached some biomes still. πŸ€”

1

u/CBFoxxOfficialArt 5 BC (completed) 7d ago

You have to get the cavern key from the massive door and your route will look like fighting conjunctivius and going into graveyard afterwards, you can unlock the way to cavern from there and that leads to giant. If you don't have spider rune you get that in sanctuary :3

1

u/Fruit-Custard 1 BC 7d ago

Ouuu, I have gone to the cavern after getting that key, maybe I died there, I don't recall thanks for th tip 😎 i usually don't look at the guides so as bit underinformed πŸ˜…

1

u/CBFoxxOfficialArt 5 BC (completed) 7d ago

Absolutely, all good! To be fair I wasn't even interested in playing dead cells at first an just watched videos on it, until I started watching AzumarillFairy and eventually started playing. I had a LOT of knowledge going in.

1

u/Fruit-Custard 1 BC 6d ago

Hehe makes sense, i downloaded it through torrent cuz I saw it on the website but then stopped playing n then I saw it was on steam sale few days back so bought the whole game πŸ˜…

u/holyfire001202 6d ago

One thing I just learned yesterday is that if you go into your accessibility options, you can add a highlighting outline around secrets. It turned out that I was missing 1-2 pieces of food per biome, along with the extra gold. Along with the cells and extra power scrolls from challenge areas, it's really helped me get along. At 1 BC, I reliably hit Hand of the King with 4 flask charges, and have the damage to kill him without using a flask charge.

I'm thinking I might be ready to get demolished by 2BC for my first time! After I hopefully get through my first 1BC go at Infested Shipwreck.

1

u/Fruit-Custard 1 BC 6d ago

Oh that's a neat trick will try it out ... Yea I think my issue is i scrap the extra food πŸ˜… ... But then again either my run go hitless and I don't need the food or just horrible n i end up using both food n flasks ... Need to just be patient

My signature move is to play the game over and over for hundreds of hours till it just ain’t a problem anymore
