INTRODUCTION
To start off with, in my first guide I talked about a strategy that heavily abused drones by using them to slaughter everything in the map before your friends could get a single shot in. To my surprise, lots of you replied in the comment section wondering where the thumbnail image was from and ways you also annoyed your friends! It was super fun reading them all, and I thought wouldn't it be fun to put them all in a guide everyone can see? I thought so. I have been meaning to do this for a while but I am super lazy so lets start!

I will put each different build in it's own section so you can simply click and choose the ones that look fun to you. There are eight different ones so feel free to have a gander! If you can think of anymore, have your say in the comments. I may not always reply but I love what people come up with.

Garfield Fun Fact: The creator of this guide does this fun fact thing. I have no idea why
CIVILLIAN DRONE-STRIKE
Survivor: Captain
Items: Spare Drone Parts

For this build, choose the captain purely for the extra drones he gets at the start. All you really need to do is spam drones. Like, REALLY spam drones. You don't need any items (except for the credit card for cheaper purchases but that's optional). Just focus on getting all the flying drones early game til late, and by Sky Meadow you should have so many drones they fly around and gun down anything before your friends can get to them!

Garfield Fun Fact: Garfield was named after Jim Davis's (the creator) grandfather, Jame A. Garfield Davis!

GREMLIN MODE
Survivor: MUL-T or Huntress
Items: Energy Drink, Mocha, Paul's Goat Hoof, Hopoo Feather, Hardlight Afterburn

For this build, you can choose either MUL-T for their car mode ability or Huntress for her teleport ability. For me personally, I like to go with MUL-T (despite Huntress being my main) due to the car mode ability being better for this build. Grabbing all the speed items and Hopoo feathers, you can literally start flying around the entire map within a few seconds. Not really needed but getting Hardlight Afterburn can give you more times to use your utility ability which is more air time. Flying around the map, you can just grab any chest before any of you mates!

Garfield Fun Fact: Snakes can detect earthquakes from 75 miles away, that's up to five days before it happens!

SHRIMP BUFFET
Survivor: Any
Items: Plasma Shrimp, Soldier's Syringe, AtG Missile Mk. 1

For this build, choose anyone you like. I am unsure if there is any bonus for certain characters but I chose Huntress. Out of all the strats, this ones pretty tame and boring. Spend the game grabbing as many AtG Missile Mk. 1 and Soldier's Syringes you can while trying to grab at least one Plasma Shrimp. Kills all the enemies, simple. If you are near a teleporter and your friends are you should activate it. Leaving your friends less time to actually get a hit on the boss when they are on the other side of the map while you melt it down at the teleporter event, that's a bunch of free items for you and you only!

Garfield Fun Fact: Orphans only have 363 days in a year! This is because they don't have a mothers or fathers day.

SUICIDE HUDDLE
Survivor: REX
Items: Fuel Array

For this build, choose REX with his HP using moved. After spawning in, grab the fuel array spawned from your "friends" drop pod. Follow them around and when they are looking low, spam your M2 ability to drain your health quickly. This simple trick will recreate the classic isis terrorist cosplay that your friends will learn to hate!

Garfield Fun Fact: Told in old scriptures, an ancient Chinese Emperor named Xiao Lou Fen had never said the words "thank you" in his life! This is because he didn't know English...

MATRIX MIX
Survivor: Any
Items: Gesture of the Drowned, Radar Scanner

For this build, you can once again chose any survivor you like. Then, spend the game activating all the Newt Portals and buying all the Gesture of the Drowned item. Grabbing enough as well as a Radar Scanner, you can become an active demon core and flash the entire screen like a light show. Goodbye, eye sight!

Garfield Fun Fact: In 1989, Garfield had an existential crisis in the comics! From October 23 - 28, Garfield dealt with the dread of the power of loneliness and denial.

SISYPHUS ROCK FALL
Survivor: Any
Items: Gesture of the Drowned, Glowing Meteorite

For this build, choose anyone blah blah blah, For the second time, activate the Newt Portals and grab all the Gesture of the Drowned. This time however, you also want to grab a Glowing Meteorite. This will turn the map in every level into a TouHou bullet hell with they way your friends will be dodging those wisps while meteorites fall!

Garfield Fun Fact: In 1987, Mcdonalds sold four different Garfield theme mugs! In each mug contained 103,600ppm of Lead and 7,314 ppm of Cadmium! That causes brain damage and cancer!

VEND-SHAKER
Survivor: Any
Items: Gesture of the Drowned, Remote Caffeinator

For this build, anyone is fine. For the third time, activate the Newt Portals and grab all the Gesture of the Drowned. But this time you also want to try and find a Remote Caffeinator. Spamming this will make the screen shaker for every time the vending machine hits. If there is no cool down on the equipment, then the screen will be constantly shaking. Trust me, your "friends" will "love" it!

Garfield Fun Fact: If you're reading this Veronica, please let me see the kids again

CAMPFIRE FUN
Survivor: Loader
Items: Gesture of the Drowned, Helfire Tincture, Backup Magazines

For this build, your actually gonna choose a survivor instead of anyone (NO WAY). You wanna choose Loader for she can just swing around across the map to allow you to always be with your "loving friends". For the items, your will unfortunately gonna go on a GotD grind again but you also wanna grab a Helfire Tincture from the Newt Shop as well. With a few Backup Magazines, you'll be able to swing over to your mates with a lovely campfire to sing the Spongebob Squarepant's hit single: Campfire Song!

Garfield Fun Fact: 254.421.81.132

CREATOR'S FINAL NOTE
You can skip the paragraph under this message, it's just my appreciation rant:

Gonna be real with everyone here, I really like this game and the community even more. From someone that could only play Roblox because I only had a Chromebook growing up, I had never played a rogue-like game before or even really knew what classified a rogue-like as one (except knowing Binding Of Isaac from YouTube). So when my friend brought this game for me and we all started playing, I immediately got an attachment. Every time I start a new run, I get nostalgic about the first game that I played. Grinding to get new characters, dying over and over again to the boss, completing our first run. It was great. I even got a very unhealthy addiction to playing this game. Then I discovered this community. Just such a great community to be part of where people actually get along. Seeing all the great fan art, fun new builds, heartwarming reviews on the game, and very questionable mods, it's just something I love to see. I do know that with Risk Of Rain Returns, some are getting salty over it. But no matter what happens, I'll still be loving this game and it's community. And that means you too!

Thank you for reaching the end of this guide, you are truly amazing and I am grateful to you for without your suggestions, I would of never thought of making this guide. I probably won't make another ROR2 guide but I'll still be online, lurking within the community from my screen.

Game on Gamers,
creme ❤️
