Build Strategy

Curse Scaling Melee Beast

Creature's weapon damage scales with 35% Curse, and gains +1 Curse per level up. Stack Curse items aggressively — every point of Curse is free weapon damage. You start with a cursed Fish Hook and have -10 Range per wave, so close-range melee is mandatory.

XP gain shrinks each wave, so get your core items early. Range penalty accumulates fast — transition to zero-range melee weapons by wave 10.

Expert Tips

1

Every level-up gives +1 Curse — your damage passively scales throughout the run.

2

Range decreases each wave — switch to melee-only weapons early.

3

Stack Curse items: each point adds ~35% weapon damage scaling.

4

Avoid ranged weapons — range penalty makes them useless by mid-game.
