Rain World - Doing an average hunter run except it starts on cycle 0 

On my first cycle 0 I didnt get a seizure but I was killed by a king vulture like 5 seconds after leaving the shelter. Didnt even see the creepy effect on screen really and it was too quick lol yeah

True, hunter runs are 50% baiting one centipede 50% deers are stupid

@@MilhSpears can confirm deers are stupid. I saw 5 of them climb on top of each other than bundle into one super massive terrifying creature. I will never forget this

@@Wylde_ how does that make them stupid

@@Wylde_ like at the end of the power rangers?

The usual hunter run, where we do not do our mission to save Moon or see Pebbles! Amazing!

I choked on my food cause This comment was read as soon as I saw this part. XD

@@Cloudypaw20- Gourmand disliked that.

​@obsidironpumicia4074 bro you made this 4 years ago and still replied damn

@@Very_painful_lego Just because it's old doesn't mean it ain't still gold

When at flat ground if a lizard is chasing after you you might want to slide stab its mouth it will stun them longer and deal more damage also is easy

@@cennetakbulut8441 it is also very risky and only works if the lizard's mouth is open.

The hardest mode

Pebbles is a long way from garbage wastes, generally try going right until you reach Shaded Citadel, and from there find memory crypts. The rest of the way is straightforward.

For me personally the game was impossible to play with keyboard but very smooth and easy with a controller.

The default controls were really weird for me because they were nowhere near traditional, but I changed them to be more traditional (and ended up making the game playable with one hand because of it). I had to remap all my keys except for one, which was Escape to pause the game

@@JetFalcon710 what did you set the keys to?

@@nomihabo9752 This. Up: W Down: S Left: A Right: D Pick Up/Eat: E Throw: Q Map: M Jump: Space Pause: Escape

plus drugs drugs definitely helped

@@pinguin4898 drugs always help. (No they don't)

@@Wylde_ shrooms always helps

I've starved as Survivor before. Poor thing turns a sort of sickly gray color ;v;

Yep it happens to all three. And if you use mods to change their color it affects the color in the same way

Wow!

yes it happened when I starved as monk and then artificer

​@@exquisitetoaster1482What about survivor who's completely pale? Does he get like gray or something?

On my first Hunter run I got to Cycle -1, but died to a Centipede in Subterranean :

I got to cycle -3 and drowned due to a seizure :D

Turtle Toad is the definition of skill

Their spines(or spikes? the things on their backs) also shake. Fun fact, that means the scavs are afraid.

"yippee yippee yippee yippee yippee yippee yippee yippee yippee yippee"

Honestly one of the scarier parts of this run, even if it doesn't look that way. She said she did 60-70 runs and if she didn't die because vultures flew away with all her spears at the start it was usually scavs. All it would take is for one of those guys to be a little extra nervous and she could have gotten speared. But she had to make sure they were paying attention or the pearl could be wasted, even though jumping like that is triggering to scavs. Very likely both those outcomes (wasted pearl or stabbed for being scary) happened to her at least once at that toll in these attempts

Pretty much, you can't play hunter for very long before at least non-king vultures start to look like silly birds with very pretty masks.

THE TURBOCANCER CHRONICLES

They did reuse the sound but I believe it to not be a coincidence.

We know why now since downpour…

@@hatrian wait why? I didn’t connect anything to Hunter

@@splitdragon3004 hunter becomes a Long Legs :(

Whaaaa…?Do I need to do the original campaigns again?

*the parasite was eating it too*

@@jessiesowterthe rot.

Yep, it's supposed to be like the Daddy Long Legs infection/cancer or something

@@crimsoneclipse6369 All I know is that it's a sort of Terminal Disease/Cancer, but that's a pretty neat effect to put into the game. (Yes, I know those two are the same, shh)

@@logical1239 if only the population didn't commit mass suicide(or at least thats what i think happened) then vets might still be around

@@stuffmorestuff6647 Who knows what happened to the Ancients.

@@logical1239 yeah i wish i knew, or at least could explore more of the ancient ruins and hopefully find some records that Moon could read

Yes

yep, the daddy long legs are iterator cancer

Literally just walking cancer it’s awful

@@timoteorider1697 Poor sweet guy >v

Seizure like spasms, weakness, slowness, perma-death and it apparently killed him in the ending

It's basically turbo cancer. And now with downpour, well.. ⚠️spoiler alert⚠️ In a Hunter run, if you perma die, and go back to the room you died in as Gourmand, then you'll see Hunters corpse, covered in growths and tumors, being dragged around by tendrils and tentacles.

​@@ricardobr1493Spoilers! and now, it turns him into a long legs

@@ethanwinters3281 the turbo cancer living up to its name

I haven't played Hunter due to fear, but I already know I'd be paralyzed with fear if I saw a Red Centipede

Update: On my Hunter run, I had the foresight to not go to Garbage Wastes, and didn't see the Red Centi in Subterranean. I did manage to spawn one in Garbage Wastes on Survivor, though, and I edited the game files so I could keep it there. Can confirm the thing's scary as hell and you have to fight against your instincts when encountering one

Yeah pretty scary and powerful. And the fact that they can *hear you while ur crouching-* ... When u encounter one, i suggest u never get in their way and stay as far away as possible. If they're blocking a path or pipe, either distract them by throwing a rock to a distant wall several times or wait it to go away. Usually in most of my playthroughs red centipedes are (not always but still commonly) busy killing scavs and lizards so i dont waste the small opportunity to slip by them. And if they ever spot you, and ur sure of it, just run like hell and try to gain faster speed. Yea ik they are fast but u can be faster with advanced movement tricks. When they grab u, quickly throw a spear ( *not a rock* cuz it doesnt do anything) then while its processing the armor penetration hit, stab the vulnerable spot and run away. If he gets close while running, stab the same spot again if u can. Also watch out for its other end cuz its trying to reach u aswell. Although, even if ur doing everything right, *u can* and probably will still die. Several times maybe. Its just how things are in the amazing nature of Rain World. Sooo. These tips i wrote are pretty much just for hiding and how to get away from them. If u wanna hear the tips for *hunting em,* just lemme know and ill gladly help. Hope u stay safe and have fun gaming

@@zeynepturkoglu5187 I'm not sure if Centipedes can hear you, their vision is almost entirely movement-based

Game only ends if you die after cycle 0

I was using a save I didn't have them all on.

It was and totally would not have noticed if it wasn't for you. Thank you for pointing that out

If you eat food, the weakness stops (though the amount needed to do so increases with time)

Yes especially when you force hibernate. Then its almost impossible to play the slugcat because its too weak

No music plays when hunter goes past cycle 0 ):

@@turtletoad7725 thats just sad :(

There is no need for threat music because you are always in danger.

@@ACE-si4ng Yep, and one death could end it all

I'm curious.

@@turtletoad7725 ok but its kind of cringe ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3DoSx8O8vNg.html

W. C. No the hunter has a terminal disease, I could go into way more confusing detail but I won’t because play the game

Super cancer

it was a long time ago that I did this run but it was probably for karma or to get somewhere more convenient for echoes

@@turtletoad7725 thanks for replying. what are the effects of negative cycles? its hard to find this info. how bad can it get?

@@dracibatic2433 it's essentially the same as cycle 0, just the frequency and severity of seizures increases while your ability to deal with them decreases (it becomes harder and harder to get enough food to make them go away, much less survive a hibernation!)

@@turtletoad7725 ... cycle -100 challenge when (also ty)

@@turtletoad7725 In the run, it looks like you did it in order to boost your karma enough to catch the Sky Islands echo

The backward flips are there to make the leaps much quicker and farther than usual, can be done on most slugcats. As for the hibernation bar, he's simply starving himself so the echo's bring him back 2 shelters back instead of the usual 1

The backflip isn't a side effect, it's movement tech that any slugcat can do in order to pounce further. The hibernation bar goes down because turtle is force-starving. It goes up because the food requirement is larger when you are starving.

It makes the Hunter weaker, require more food, and occasionally it ends up having seizures. It's also an indicator of your game going to permadeath mode _(i.e. if you die, the run is over)._ Long story short, it makes life a living hell ;v;

This in particular has to be super planned out, since if you die after cycle zero, it's permadeath and the run ends right there. That plus the seizures that hunter goes through add a significant difficulty increase.

now that it's been 5 years, have you gotten better?

@@omegadragons321 I've been on and off, now instead of trying to learn just by watching I'm learning from movement guides lol

@@vvreverievv504 awesome, love to hear it :)

The first time I hit it, I was in a Garbage Wastes shelter so I couldn't see the red, but I heard the noise as I was leaving the Shelter and I was scared and confused because it never happened after that

@@turtletoad7725 Interesting, do you know of any videos that show the changes at different amounts?

@@Zorro9129 not any that specifically show it, this video is probably the best example that exists. you'll notice as time goes on in the video, food becomes less effective. that's one symptom, and the other is frequency of siezures.
