I have 3 wins so far going for 4 and 5.

Here is the pet: Captain Beatd0wn Level: 1718 Health: 0 / 4657 Strength: 2678 Defense: 2692 Speed: 2054 Intelligence: 2734 AP: 170

Weapon set I'm using: [Item=volatile energized mecha]

Scrolls [Item=Tasselled aegis Scroll][Item=gift of the forj scroll][Item=gift of the forj scroll][Item=gift of the forj scroll][Item=gift of the forj scroll][Item=gift of the forj scroll][Item=gift of the forj scroll][Item=gift of the forj scroll][Item=gift of the forj scroll][Item=gift of the forj scroll][Item=Morosbane Scroll]

I'm pretty sure I'm optimized on weapons except for being down one gift of the fort scroll. I think I can get to 5 wins for my own Cronus blade, but thought I would run it by everyone else and see if there is anything I'm not seeing. I can probably track down even a different god weapon if needed, but I think these are the 2 best.

Also since it comes up occasionally on the BC chat figured this would be an easier place to document how weary you can beat meatslab with the right weapons

I tested Pbow but it felt like I wasn't healing/blocking enough and it seemed much jerkier. Kinda switching between Natasha and Kwand. I don't think Wrath of K is worth considering.

Did you try swapping out the fire for a dark blocker like the ME? It's been a while since I did this, but I remembered I used ME and Cronus blade and had to blast those pesky Bluud wands.

Check out this thread here. A few of us were discussing weapons, scrolls and strategy.

Here is his set from mrcools guide

Bone Spurs: 17 earth, 10-25 wind, 10-25 fire, 10-15 magma May give Throbbing Pain curse (10 dark, 10 magma; 7 rounds) Mighty Flex: 35-100 physical Boosts attack by 750, defense by 250 Baal Risen: 45 or 55 magma, 30 or 35 fire, 30 or 35 dark Blocks 125 magma Boosts attack by 350 Head Explosion: 50 or 75 magma, 25 or 50 dark One use Flayed Peasant Breastplate: Blocks 4 or 20 physical/earth/ice/wind, 6 or 30 fire/dark/magma May give Sepsis curse (10 dark; 3 rounds) Glowing Bluud Wand: Heals 2-10% Bulk Meat Scroll: Blocks 3 of each icon type

It looks like late game he does a lot more fire than dark, I don't have a lot of trouble surviving 50+ rounds to get to the late game, its just when he starts to boost too much that I think its getting me.

I'm giving a couple runs with the ME + Cronus, the icons do stack a lot better than Kwand/Pbow/Natasha/Wrath of K

I can't seem to find any info about how many Head Explosions are there, or which weapons generate them. Depending on how often it shows up, it's a tossup between the fire and dark blocker. But I know Fatal Fire scrolls block both if you can equip enough of them.

Let us know about the difference with the ME later.

I wanna say I remember my strategy was stealing all his shit before he boosted too much

For future reference: 5 wins at: Level: 2087 Health: 5056 / 5056 Strength: 3020 Defense: 3029 Speed: 2407 Intelligence: 3060 AP: 190 using the exact set in the OP

I might try that once I get a kwand lol

I got win 4 with that set, except ME instead of kwand. you can probably get the win with ME and those stats too.
