Movement speed converts to damage. Max speed = max damage. Enemies can't even touch you.
Leverage CL4NK's crit passive with high attack speed weapons for terrifying DPS output.
Max luck and every chest drops god-tier items. Combine with XP Tome to snowball unstoppably.
ð The "Holy Trinity" Meta Strategy
Want to top the leaderboards? Remember this golden formula:
- XP Tome - Faster leveling = More weapon slots = Stronger builds
- Luck - Better upgrade options = Faster power spikes = Higher scores
- Curse - Increased difficulty but massive reward multipliers = Explosive score gains
