How to Unlock Build Components
Some items in this Romantic Curse Powered build require unlocking before they can be used. Note that items listed in "Avoid" sections are also shown here - check the build details to see if unlocking them is necessary for this strategy.




Core Strategy
Focus on building enough damage to get enemies below 25% HP to charm them while maintaining sufficient armor to offset the character's curse penalties. Charmed enemies fight for you for 8 seconds before dying and dropping materials.
Required Stats:
Early Game
Prioritize getting 6 SMGs early for maximum charm attempts. Take early ranged damage upgrades and any armor you can find to offset curse penalties. Cursed items are valuable if found early.
Items:




Weapons:

Mid Game
Build economy while balancing curse penalties. Decomposing Flesh provides reliable healing through life steal. Frozen Heart enables elemental damage synergies.
Items:





Late Game
Focus on maximizing damage output while maintaining survivability. Giant Belt helps with boss fights. Fish Hook can create additional cursed items for stronger scaling.
Items:





Avoid Items
Avoid items that increase enemy health early as it makes charming harder. Goblet is less effective since charmed enemies dying doesn't trigger kill effects.
Items:


Tips
Don't fear curse - the economic benefits often outweigh the penalties. Prioritize charming Hatchers as they spawn additional charmed allies. Remember that charmed enemies count against maximum enemy spawns.
