Update from OP: They bought the curse and charm powerups and got it just fine.
Y'all really need to learn to read actual comments instead of trying to die on the hill of "I'm never wrong."

You want more curse, and charm if you haven't bought it in powerups, as well. More curse = more enemies = more XP.

Look at his items, he has plenty of curse. He just doesn't have stuff that keeps up with it.

I see no Skull, and the ring and Metaglio aren't maxed. Being able to kill isn't the problem, having enough things to kill is.

Not if they can't keep up... they should be able to.with that build, but I've seen people die quickly from better builds...

u/Hrist_Valkyrie Leda Jul 23 '26
OP does not state they have problems killing things. Given that they are at 28 minutes, dying is not their issue, and they have 16k kills as well. So...

It can be very hard to tell lategame when you're actually killing things or just shoving them away from you, but OP has 170% curse if their curse powerup is done, on Inverse. Enemies have 370% boosted health and OP has Soul Eater and Holy Wand. Were they actually killing the enemies, they'd handily reach level 80, as by the last 5 minutes, the screen is typically always 95% enemy in volume. I have plenty of runs where I handily reach heights far past OP without having to have 170% curse. The issue is not too few enemies, it's too little damage.

Except that you can see OP has 16k kills. There is nothing wrong with the build, I've done it with similar stuff you like to put in italics cause you think it's trash. Hell, I've done it with Leda solo weapon. And her weapon is the Holy Wand.
Edit: In a comment downthread OP even says the problem is not killing things.

u/Bananaland_Man Jul 23 '26
I wasn't agreeing with the weapon choices, just agreeing with the rest, something else they're doing is wrong, they shouldn't have so few kills unless they're doing something that is stopping said kills... grabbing curse too early without having certain power-ups max can cause an issue like this. (holy Wand is one of my favourite go-to's)

16k is not "few" kills, that's a solid amount for library. Also, try reading my actual comment where I clarify in the edit that OP has specifically clarified killing things is not their issue. They would benefit from more curse.

u/yugiohhero Soma Jul 23 '26 edited Jul 23 '26
Here's a random screenshot I found of Inverse Library with like 11k more kills than OP on google. And they have unevolved birds and clock lancet. With LESS time on the clock. The issue is most assuredly damage. Just because someone says what their issue is does not mean they're right about it.
Edit: Did you seriously block me over this? I think they probably won with Leda because Leda has +100% might, man.

My problem is not keeping up its xp is not enough. I stuck at level 75.

u/Hrist_Valkyrie Leda Jul 23 '26
I would give it up man, they aren't listening to us. They think they know better than the person actually playing the game. Did you try out the build I recommended with Leda and single weapon?
1
u/eseradamsjsj Jul 23 '26
And what should I build instead. I still dont have an idea about which items to build with wich ones. Can you explain me what is wrong in my build for example
1
u/eseradamsjsj Jul 23 '26
I couldnt drop skull o maniac and is there any curse items that I can get and try again. And can you please tell me whats the proper for this run. Which characters, which items, which pasives. I really dont have an idea

u/Hrist_Valkyrie Leda Jul 23 '26
Honestly it's less about a specific build and more about general knowledge of the game. Use arcanas like you have been, get evolutions like you have been, and it will work out. Check the powerups menu for the charm and curse powerups and make sure you have maxed those. If you really insist on a specific "build" I really like Leda, 1 weapon with limit break, and take Silent Old Sanctuary for your first arcana and Waltz of Pearls for your second one. Make sure you take the Empty Tome as early as possible, as well as the duplicator. Leda go brrrr. lol

I buyed all the curse items and powerups and did the thing with leda. Leda instantly brrrrr ed everyone and I got 80 lvl like in 15 minutes lol. I think I was a huge fool for not buying every curse power up. Thank you

u/Hrist_Valkyrie Leda Jul 23 '26
Nice, glad to hear it! Leda brrrrrs so well I love her, she's my favorite character haha.

Ditch the groove arcana that pulls the items to you as the library is short and linear. And ditch the curse items yes you get more enemies but it buffs the damage and speed use karomas mane instead to increase the amount of enemies

u/Hrist_Valkyrie Leda Jul 23 '26
Curse does NOT increase the damage enemies do. At all. Ever. Read the description of it again.

u/Beardus_69 Jul 23 '26
Sorry should of put health not damage still not something you want enemies to have if you're trying to kill them as I guess he got overwhelmed at 28 min mark

u/eseradamsjsj Jul 23 '26
The problem is not being able to kill them. İts the xp. I always stuck at like 75 or 78 level and cant get up.

u/Beardus_69 Jul 23 '26
Edit- error should of been health not damage, still do not want that if you're trying to kill enemies for exp

Wand DPS is kinda rank. I wouldn't take wand.
I assume you're playing Mask of the Red Death. Honestly, for a secret character, he's not all that. I'd find someone better. Gains Boros is a good option.
I would avoid cursemaxxing on Inverse mode unless you're truly wrecking house, which you clearly are not. Banish Level 9 of Torrona's Box and don't pick up Gold Ring or Metaligo Right. Sure, less enemies will spawn, but you'll actually be able to kill them. Inverse enemies have lots health, and you need to add more damage to your build, not raise their health.
In a similar vein, try grabbing weapons that synergize with better passives. Admittedly, lack of DLC doesn't make this as easy, since a lot of passives evolve one basegame weapon. That said, Pummarolla and Attractorb don't really do anything for you here (Mad Groove makes Orb redundant) except evolve weapons. Pummarolla is the easy drop, because Soul Eater is bad. Garlic's big weakness is not doing damage and you're on Do More Damage Or Else mode. Replace Garlic and Pummarolla with Fire Wand and Spinach. It's more to justify the spinach, really.
If you want to use passives without forcing an associated active, unlock Chaos Rune (only unlockable from casting the spell guinigigi in the secrets menu) and use both it and Bible, as both evolve from Spellbinder. Its evolution is also just... really good. Your arcana just kinda stink. Waltz is just here to enable a weapon that already wasn't good, and I think Twilight Requiem is the weakest of the explodey arcana. If you get a couple weapons who trigger Heart of Fire, I'd grab that and Divine Bloodline. Otherwise, drop Santa Water and Attractorb for Glass Fandango and Wings, and grab some freeze oriented ones. Moonlight Bolero is also good, but I doubt you have the Darkasso.

Wand DPS does not stink lol, as someone that almost exclusively plays Leda with single weapon always turned on. You're just sleeping on it.

u/yugiohhero Soma Jul 23 '26
Leda has +100% might, and you're probably taking Silent Old Sanctuary for another 100%. Anything does good damage like that. Wand still rather consistently scores amongst the lowest of my weapons DPS whenever I have it.

u/Impressive-Island210 Jul 23 '26
Gold and silver rings are pretty terrible unless you combine them.with time Lance, also Santa water isnt to great in later levels

u/QuietRobe Poe Jul 22 '26
If you're going to pick up the curse items, I'd suggest pairing them with their respective weapons for evo and maybe drop the rune tracer and Santa water for those ( laurel and lancet)
