Help with Goibniu Mode

[^_^|Shou.SexY]

I just want to beat Goibniu mode for the achievement. What's the easiest way to do it? Wyatt or Reina? Stat builds? Skills?

Well I only have experience with Wyatt so take it as you will, but I would believe he is easier to do it with just due to the early game. I've done a ton of Goibniu and 95% of my runs end within the first 10 mins. As you probably know the objective is to go fast but not too fast. If you feel like the next boss or area is going to kick your backside, then take a few minutes and farm since you are not doing it for score. Play it safe and don't worry so much about boss rank the first time through. In terms of stats I take about 7 points in luck as my first priority for the increased drop rate on items and the luck stat when in neutral afinity grants health, saving you more than you'd like to believe. After the points in luck the rest is what you are most comfortable with. I sometimes go strength, sometimes agility, or sometimes a mix of the two, and if I'm really feeling squirrely, I pump nothing but int after luck. Now for skills, I highly recommend taking the first few points and putting them into the offensive tree in whichever order you prefer. I mostly take crit chance followed by the extra damage after 4 hits in a combo with the % attack being last. Once you hit level 5 I highly suggest putting that skill point into the 10 armor ruin as it will considerably increase your overall damage. After that it is again entirely up to you and your playstyle. Take all of this as you will. Just my $0.02

Sounds like a good strategy. And by 7 points into Luck do you mean ending at 7 points or 8?

Another question, how long does a Goibniu run usually take if you were just beating through it?

[Lochinvire]

Well I generally take 7 points because of the bonuses and gear I get it adds up to 10 luck total. every 5 of a stat gives something extra so with 7 annd my gear it equals out at 10 giving me the bonus HP. And a Goibniu run usually takes me an hour and a half to 2 hours with no farming done. With farming for score its usually closer to 3 hours give or take.
