Avoid Items

Avoid harvesting items due to 80% harvesting reduction. Skip items that trade too much dodge or speed for damage, as attack speed is already reduced by 50%.

Toxic Sludge - Common Brotato itemToxic Sludge - Common item in Brotato.Stats: +2 Elemental Damage-2 % DodgeAvailable by default.

Tips

Cannot use ranged weapons. Can only use tier 2 weapons and above. Reduce weapon range to improve attack speed. Stack life steal and HP regeneration to offset slow attack speed vulnerability.
