Music Note damage basic Guide/Explanation

music note spells are one of the easiest ways to do hundreds of thousands of damage per second without needing expensive spells

By themselves, music notes do no damage and have a lifetime of 2 frames BUT have innate player-safe piercing.

piercing shot (the modifier) makes the projectile apply damage to hit enemies every frame at the cost of making the projectile also damage the player AND costs 140 mana/shot.

music notes have this but with NO COSTS.

This means that if you simply add homing, damage and lifetime:

then already you have a homing projectile that does 44 damage per frame (plus the 3 from the sparkbolt I guess).

If you cant find increase lifetime then there are a few alternatives that also add lifetime as a side effect:

null shot (beta branch) - adds 280 frames of lifetime (don't know if its very usable because of its effects on damage)

true orbit (beta branch) - adds 80 frames of lifetime (difficult to use effectively because of its behavior)

phasing arc - adds 80 frames of lifetime

spiral arc - adds 50 frames of lifetime

ping pong path/orbiting arc - adds 25 frames of lifetime

for scale - increase lifetime adds 75 frames of lifetime.

So how do you make it do more damage?

ADD MORE STUFF!!

This build fires 4 homing and piercing music notes that each do 176 damage per frame

176 damage per frame is 10,560 DPS

10k DPS PER NOTE

here's the wand I'm using in those clips for anyone wondering

you can see that its basically an extreme version of the last build
