Stealth's NecroDancer low% journey

[stealthlevel100]

This final trophy I need for the platinum (Lowest of the Low)  is extremely demotivating and unforgiving so I thought it would be fun to make a thread where I post my journey, progress, and plan.

Also feel free to compete in the challenges with me too and post ur vids.

This is a brilliant stepping stone toward the actual run. Good luck becoming the next Necromaster!

I decided to take a break from Coda and do AllChars low% first myself, so far the hardest character for me is Bolt low%. I've gotten to 4-3 a couple of times so it's just a matter of time and its the only low% character I haven't done yet. 

Good news is, I managed to clear Dove and Monk in row which is my new PB at least. 

 

Hope to see some more updates from you and I want you to know you're not in this alone. ? 

 

Good luck!

Oh nice, looks like you have made a detailed plan to tackle this monster. I got my first Aria low% clear last weekend, so for my next step I was thinking of just practicing for lowest of the low and see how that goes, and if it's about to break me, just go for a regular all chars run instead lol

 

Your optional challenge is something I was thinking of doing as well actually. Usually when it comes to full game runs, I like to practice individual levels to death, so that nerves are the only thing I have to worry about in an actual run, so in this case I was thinking of at least trying to get something like 3 wins in deathless low% with the last 5 (relatively easy) characters. Monk and Dove are a bit too RNG heavy I feel to really be that consistent with them.

Anyways, first things first: I still have to get my first low% clear with 6 more characters, so that's what I'll be working on.

Good luck!

Wishing you all the best, my friend! Likewise with @Miles and @Dzware.

 

Also, once you've beaten Monk and Dove back to back, it's just a matter of when you can get this trophy. ^^,

 

I'll be very busy with the real world so I won't be able to check on much, but as I mentioned in the discord, you guys have my full moral support, likewise anyone attempting to take this monster on!
