(if you somehow don't find this guide helpful, check out this link for better explanations)
Abilities
💯 Scars - Poison Immune, Mana Burn Immune, Curse Immune
💯 Momentum- Successive kills add 15% bonus damage. Levelling up or losing momentum halves bonus
💯 Martyr- Extra altar spawn
Momentum. Speed. Power. This is what the Crusader is all about. Stack 'em tall, knock' em down. When you land the killing blow on a monster, momentum will give you 15% bonus damage. Hitting a monster and not killing it, or levelling up, will halve your momentum. It’s all about the momentum. Kill a couple of popcorn to get to bonus damage, and smash the boss’s face in. Level up, build more momentum, more speed, more power. Smash the boss’s face again. Boss? More like, “hold that loss.” Because they’re a loser and you’re not.
We’re tough. Real tough. We’ve got Scars. No more poison, no more mana burn, no more curse. Only Momentum. These other classes need to get on our level. We can fight Serpents, Wraiths, and Thralls without even caring, they’re so scared of us I’m surprised they even hit back. We can take out the toughest they have and not give a damn. We’ve got momentum.
We’re gonna die for a cause. We’re Martyrs, and our cause is momentum. You know we ride in the big leagues, with extra Deities around us. If they can’t give us anything, we disrespect them. Yeah, we’ll make our way through the punishment and take that Piety. Fast. We’ve got better options, bigger fish to catch. Momentum.
Kin Choices
💯 Orc - Momentum is a product of mass and velocity, and Orcs bring the mass. Hit harder. Stack those gains and then stack those profits as you sell the head of that chump they call a “boss.” Loser. We’re using mathematical formulas over here. Our base damage is multiplied by our bonus damage. That means we get value from momentum with base damage. Yeah, we’re smart. We know how to grow conversion investments.
💯 Halfling - Halflings have that grind-set investor lifestyle. Potions give us mass, our mindset gives us speed, and therefore we get that momentum. Halflings are trading entrepreneurs. They’re artists at it, really. Invest your Health Potions in Reflexes with Tikki T, or in Piety with the Glowing G, or supplemental Health Boosters with big man JJ. They’re visionaries, really.
💯 Goblin - If you’re not levelling up on the daily, you’re gonna lose at life. Crusaders don’t lose. Goblins level up. Every. Single. Day. Their conversion is supreme. You’ll lose your momentum, but pick yourself back up. Take that heal, rebuild your momentum, use that power.
Gods
💯 Taurog - Our main man Taurog has force. That’s why we like him. We stack the bodies of losers and Taurog gives us the drip we need to do our job. We’re out here doing damage to these dungeons while looking good in Gloat and Will. Smashing people with Skullpicker and the Wereward. Momentum. With Taurog, we’re an Unstoppable Fury. Literally.
💯 Dracul - Drac knows everyone is below us. Drac also knows that there’s no point feeling bad for them. This is our world, they're just living in it. Levelling up makes us lose our momentum, but gives us health. Drac cuts out the middleman and heals us straight up with Blood Swell so we can keep our streak. You know we’re hungry for success, and Blood Hunger keeps us full. It’s called “life steal,” but we think of it more as “life repurposing” because they weren’t doing much with it.
💯 Tikki Tooki - Power is work divided by time. Tikki makes work happen in no time. That’s right, the amount of power is undefinable. He likes it when we take out the little guys. He knows that’s what they weren’t going anywhere, just wasting space on your dungeon floor. In return, we get the speed to dodge attacks, the Reflexes to hit harder, and Tikki’s Edge to learn how to level up faster. That’s momentum. Never forget it.
And for those Gods that have nothing to offer us… Disrespect them. Desecrate their altars. Earthmother? Yeah we’ll take that 30 piety and chug a Burn Salve to get rid of the corrosion. Binlor? Yeah take my resists, I didn’t have them anyways. Just make sure you don’t mess with the Glowing G - actually, nevermind. Try it and let us know how it goes lil' bro.
Glyphs
💯 Pisorf - You know what doesn’t kill momentum? Getting people out of our way. Pisorf! We’ve got things to do, and your face needs to meet that wall. Damage? Check. Momentum? Also check.
💯 Bysseps - It’s all about the numbers. The numbers don’t lie, and they spell disaster for your enemies. Bysseps gives us more numbers, 30 of them to be exact, which are all added to our bonus damage. If they’re trying to resist you, you’ll slowly take that away from them as well. We got a 144 2⁄3% chance of winnin'.
Most Glyphs are useful to us, but be careful with Burndayraz as it’ll break your momentum. Now that’s not fire. Make sure to use Glyphs to hustle some Piety for your main G(od).
