Best items strategy?
Most times I play this game, I have sacrifice and command and sit in the first level for an hour and get huge, then go kill everything. What is the best items build? Usually what I do is this:
Common: Banner. Stack glasses until 14. Stack syringe until 20. Stack crowbar.
Green: Infusion. Stack clovers. Stack missiles until 10. Stack goat hoof and hopoo feathers. Stack armor and evasion.
Red: Dio. Jetpack. Stack missiles until 14. idk what's best. Alien head? Wicked ring? Scepter?
Orange: Captain's Brooch. Foreign Fruit for bossfight.

Actually it's 13. But you're right, I got it wrong.

Scepter, alien head, and the ring that reduces CD on crit are all great items.

Huntress can spam her glaive once you get a couple rings with high crit. Slays everything hilariously fast.

play without command...

thats best item strategy.

if you want play with command you need pick 5 hoofs minimal, and one infusion is good already, waste other green packs on icicles and will-o-wisps. all red items are good, thats why they are red, best orange item without any doubts is the clock.

Why no command, it has nothing but benefits.

will-o-wisp good when you play on Moonson, with all artifacts, in that case pick some gasoline and police traps, sory if im incorrect with item names and english at all

Stack syringes, bustling fungus is amazing at 10, alien head is also good.
4 heaven crackers + behemoth will help, lens makers glasses and wicked ring, infusion, missle launcher, 30 boxing gloves + 30 stun grenade is one of if not the best combo in the game, my play through is at 260 minutes and enemies physically cannot attack me. And just some various items like:
rusty jetpack, jetpack, rapid mitosis, goat hoof, red whip, time keepers secret, tesla, hopoo feather, barbed wire at 100 will insta kill bosses with 30,000 hp and i've killed colossuses with 500,000 hp pretty easily with it, guardians heart. And you're set for late late game.

Ceremonial Dagger and Infusion are just downright broken and should not be used because they turn the game into easy mode.
Heart, Fungus and all healing items (1-2 for each) for defensive
Hoofs, Feathers, 1-2 Rusty Jetpacks for mobility
Syringe, Crowbar, Golden Gun, Glasses, Rocket for damage
For Miner 2 Alien Heads are absolutely necessary
Bandit and Han-D love the scepter
Crit Build + Ring for infinite skills

Clock and Shield are the only good oranges (except for rare cases) except for Miner who needs an Amethyst
Tesla, Ice Shards, Electricity Ring and Barbed Wire for overkill

Jetpack is absolute garbage since there are much better reds and vertical movement is covered with greens.
