kill author??

[Dragoniru]

how can we kill the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dev on the extra stage??

[Johnny Thunder]

i don't think he's killable.

I had a build that autocast the sword spell so he couldn't hurt me. I went AFK for a few minutes and when I got back I couldn't dent his health.

[Masked Vermin]

I got it with the stealth summoning outfit, +summon stuff, and just all book pets with Disruption Ray. It was chuggy and I was blind but things died almost instantly by the end. Trollface didn't do much better.

[Khorne Flakes]

In all of my runs, I had never seen his health dent, but my most recent one (which took ages to get going, was touch and go in chapter 2) which became super OP at the end with some amazing luck from rerolling spells, I saw, not only did his health drop, but it was dropping a lot more than I expected (only went down about 5% before I died).

So, it is killable, but what happens next, I don't know yet.

You get an "kill the author" achievement by defeating it.

[Masque]

Awesome! I just came in to ask who's beat him yet.

Congrats, Masked Vermin! Yeah, I only got him down about 5 percent, and surprised I lasted as long as I did. Having 33% evade is helpful.

Get the sword (+ if possible), put it on a wand that gets 35 energy per second while not moving, add hover, reduce the spell cost as much as possible(i managed 4.6 mana for ~5 attacks per second), add some buffs for crit/damage/doublehit, go afk in a corner while the wand kills the author.

Get some bonus spells/minions if you can get the spell that triggers a wand when another wand casts a spell(put it on a different wand).

Somehow he seemed easier today...

[Platinawolf]

As someone who got it, I used the sword spell together with a level 2 meteor spell in a wand that triggered the swords everytime I did damage. Don't remember the exact numbers. But I did terrible terrible damage and he had no chance to kill me. Especially not as I had swords "hovering" to keep me safe due to the25% cast in random direction artifact.

[Johnny Thunder]

I beat him. Sat in corner with Wand of Silence auto-spamming Spellbreaker, also summoned Self-Aware Grimoire via Resonance rune, did not have to touch anything. Grimoires were beefed up and casting Adava Keravda (only level 2 since I got it late in the game and didn't have enough rooms to upgrade it a second time)

[Masque]

I've never had a lv. 3 weapon yet.

Not enough rooms, IMO. Almost but not quite.

[IceBankMiceElf]

Killed him the way others have said. Just need protection with a sword on a standing still to charge wand

[Karpa]

I got him by using meteor and a wand that had a damage based post, sitting in the corner, and having the post spell being the pillar summoning. :)

Last time i tried this he quickly destroyed the pillars. Although that was during the demo, maybe he's weaker now or the pillars are better.

I used meteor and pilars (autocast by any 45 damage dealt wand) to protected me, took a few minutes

[EDZJE]

like the others said before, spellbreaker was the key for me aswell with triple cast and mana reduction

I just beat the boss, longest 5 min of my life defeating him.
