*Skeleton Sword, Prisoner, Warrior, Werewolf, Berserker, & Samurai, all have ridiculous damage potential but are more challenging to play. *Water Skull, Arclitch, Gambler, Rockstar & Ent are all both incredibly strong & easy to use Warrior's Pauldrons is a good defensive item on it's own.įor top tier skulls it depends on what you are looking for in a run. They combine into 1 super amped up item when you get both of them. The Solar Sword/Lunar Ring combo is really strong too. Skulls I find very fun to play: Lich, Warlock, GamblerĪs NeonRed said, The Ring is a super good item and usable by anyone. Skulls that are really good for winning runs (no particular order): Shield, Frost, WW, Alchemist, Reaper, Ghoul, Berserker, Predator, Thief Burn in particular gets really good at 4 items, but it feels bad vs bosses imo. They take too much investment (2 items minimum) to really come online, and it just really doesn't do that much damage for the investment.

I think bleed/poison/burn are kind of weak, even after the update. If you get it in act 1, you can build literally any items because it will scale up so much.

So if you have half the game left, it can scale into oblivion. It scales depending on how many enemies you've killed.

If you see Grim Reaper in act 1 (really rare) or 2 (rare), it's just a free run.
