What's the craziest build you've gotten?
So, I just had a run where I managed to OTK Astrea. Admittedly, I'm still on a low ascension, but it was still pretty cool. I was playing as the dinosaur guy, my most relevant blessings were interlocked gears and brass knuckles. I wound up getting a level 5 artisan assistant, and creating a build that could repeatedly smash and revive it in order to build up vorpal plate link on my other sentinel, which, end result, gave me 35 vorpal plate in the Astrea fight. Then I just had to prod her with corruption a few times, and let her annihilate herself against my plating.

Time Dog. I ended up getting the sentinel that had the sands of time dice, the black hole blessing that gave sentinels + 1 dice draw and then with the precision sentinel dice i could high roll LITERALLY EVERYTHING. it was great

Time dog as well. I had a non-deterministic infinite combo with most of the dice forge-duped into having several sides with hourglass mastery and draw.

Worst part was that its finishers were garbage so I was stuck with 10+ minute turns until the deck fizzled out.

Still beat Astrea somehow but it had Decay-5 in the end.

Probably shark boi.

Just bulldozed a run with infinite Indigo Soul, literally unkillable, I had so many Epic/duped dies with it that I could manage it every single turn, sometimes even several times per turn.

Infinite lives, infinite waves, splish splash it was an easy run ;P

Finally beat the game for the first time with lowest ascension to get to her possible (base and lev 0 on astrea) and this seems insane to me. lol

I will say I had a 3 turn ground zero win with shark due to oversaturation of Epics but its nothing compared to what you just said lol

Thin shark build, had only 9 cards. Built a single purging anchor to ~63 dmg then duped it 4 times. Finished the run with 12 cards.

Orion with all in the Devotion orb, it takes time to do big things but it's great, look at that shield!

Alright, new contender, quite simple infinite for Hevelius.
Charged Pylon (copy sentinel ideally lvl5, but works even with lvl1)
Protostar (Vendetta sentinel, lvl1 is fine)
Sentinels Uprising+++ (rearm sentinels epic die), or ++ forged with another rearm side
Battery Prototype or any other source of boost for sentinels.
Nebula Rose (Thorns black hole blessing, without it the build is really slow at killing stuff)

Turn1 bounce virtues and reroll/draw stuff until you hit copycat side for Charged Pylon and draw Uprising. Copy uprising, repeat with second copycat.
Now you have at least 8/9 chance for Pylon to rearm itself, and over 50% to rearm second sentinel in the same cycle.

This engine isn't perfect, but Hevelius has enough self-corruption to bounce through rearm virtue and restart the engine if it hits 1/9 failure.

Second sentinel hits thorned enemy to stack vengeance and quickly ramps up to 15+ damage, killing anything except corrupted Sothis in the first turn.
