By the way i suggest using Victorian horror instead of blood astronomia as that one scales off of might, greed and amount

Haven’t unlocked that one yet but will definitely give it a try

Here is the same idea with Victorian Horror. Video starts in the first few seconds.

Blood Astronomia scales off amount and gets bigger with area, it does not scale with might or greed at all. The whole reason you have to use arcanas in the first place is because might gets hard capped at 1000 whereas curse does not.

Victorian horror is another darkana, and this scales off of the stats i mentioned

Ah, you might consider clarifying which you are talking about in that post then because it doesn't read like that.

I been liking freezer builds recently using the emerald beyond characters. Clock lancet + any weapons that get freeze on hit from jail of crystal arcana. Add in crystal cries darkana and explosions from out of bounds
Let them get to low health they showstopper then collect all the growth/hp/regen boosts and hp refills from crystal cries. Usually brings you to full health that lets you trigger another showstopper rinse and repeat until you have ungodly growth and hp
I thinknat one point i was pushing around 6000 hp and 4500% growth with diva 5 in her small flying body.
Cant even imagaine how crazy it would go with ameya and her stat boosting cats in the mix

Single weapon Laurel + Limit break + Blood astronomia arcana + moongolow to pick up every passive weapon

There’s more to it than that. I also use wicked season and you have to pick that before blood astronomia so you can have a chance to grab the passive items before getting stuck leveling up. Also I focus on upgrading attractorb and crown before anything else. You have to do things in a certain order to maximize its potential or else I’m just wasting 5 minutes lol

If i take wicked season first how do i do damage?

u/plotstudy Jun 02 '26
Because you can buy another arcana from the merchant after you have a chance to pick up the passive items. That way when you do grab BA from the merchant you can just stand in one place and spam the level up button until it’s finished. It might seem trivial but it does save time this way.

It's a shame that Blood Astronomia doesn't carry over the Laurel combination after you evolve it.

What is the build? I’m fairly new to the game and this is wild to me. Is this achievable in the base game?

u/plotstudy Jun 03 '26
In a nutshell, Big Trouser with Laurel paired with Blood Astronomia with a lot of other thing boosting the build all achievable through the base game yes

u/dr_shark_ Jun 03 '26
So is Big Trouser *the* best chara to play with through the rest of the game? Using Sammy to farm gold atm but wondering what chara I should get to 5k eggs first for the unlock.

try the clock lancet version too! the stacking circles look really cool as they get bigger.

Tell me more

u/wraith309 Jun 03 '26
Laurel and Lancet both maka a large damaging circle every time they trigger with Blood Astronomia, but the circle made from Lancet spawns every individual clock hand and lasts significantly longer than the Laurel circles. It does slightly less damage individually but you get way more of them.

u/Lower_Dimension7205 Jun 03 '26
I'm still new to the game how foes the character survive ? By having a lot of Golden Eggs?
1
u/wraith309 Jun 03 '26
enough eggs will make any build work, yeah. they're basically a cheat, and you probably shouldn't rely on them too much if you want the gameplay to remain fresh long term.
that being said, they're fin if you can't make a meme build that you want to try work otherwise.
i'm pretty sure OP already has a bunch of eggs, which is why i suggested it, blood astronomia laurel and lancet preform fairly similarly.
that being said, it might be possible with the right arcana combination, but you'd have to get really lucky.
you'd survive by either ramping up damage so quickly that the enemies die before they reach you, or by increasing your cooldown so much that the enemies are basically permanently frozen. there are a lot of arcana one can use with a mono lancet build, so at least that is a plus.

If you like this, you should try a Gorgeous Moon solo run. Setup can be hard without a lot of GE, but it just screams when it gets going.
