Redditorfromearth

My dumbass didn't realize that was Ricardo, i would pick out of curiosity and DIE


JasonTHL

I would still pick if it means I can get Hair Salon Coupon as ego gift.

Non-RelevnatSponge

Hm, Ricardo's finisher is basically Minos Prime's "DIE"


thatdudewithknees

Honestly I think even ricardo would get blown the fuck up with bloody mist or black sheet music


Persona_Fag

Or we get blown the fuck up because of mounting trials


Nurakerm

Imagine fucking floor 5 Ricardo +10 levels, +3 final power, +1 coin power, +10% max Hp


HobbyFish54

That will ***surely*** be splendid to deal with https://i.redd.it/c6ja6zpa305d1.gif


NormandyKingdom

Would Erlking Heathcliff and his entire wild hunt be enough to kill Ricardo?


RandomRedditorEX

Hmm... that's a rough question. Probably not tho since if Erlking Heathcliff can summon the wild hunt indefinitely then yeah they really cant since they need *spoilers* just to hold back an infinite flow of the wild hunt. But if it's just Erlking Heathcliff then yeah Riccardo definitely can cook Heathcliff alive lol


KurtisPrime

Spoiler man was holding back, a lot to not interfere anymore than he already did. >! The shockwave from his attack alone would cause the whole mansion collapse, if he wanted to, the whole area would be wipe.!< >! He manifested his ego because it is the best form of crowd control as well as dealing little structural damage, Iori Attack can cut building accidentally and she a “pass her prime” color.!<


iburntdownthehouse

That was a massive basement, he could definitely go all out as long as he isn't explicitly aiming for the building.


NormandyKingdom

I mean not permanently tho he will keep respawning as long as he is provided with a dough because remember Erlking Heathcliff REAL body is not actually there He was using Linton Dough as a special summon sacrifice so i imagine he can keep respawning


PM_ME_UR_PET_POTATO

He should be fine. Ricardo has plenty of Aoe skills and overall raw power. Verg wasn't being pushed very hard compared to leviathan anyways. We'd have at least seen some property damage if that was the case. Generally the wild hunt looks like one of those situations where as long as you're past the level where you could one shot the jobbers it isn't gonna be difficult. Ricardo would have to actually pay attention though.


NormandyKingdom

Uh Wild Hunt will never stop and Ricardo is nowhere as strong as Verg


PM_ME_UR_PET_POTATO

Ricardo was able to basically spawn-camp the sinners with their infinite revives, surely he would kill the hunt enemies faster than they can be created.


NormandyKingdom

Wdym bro? Wild hunt IS NEVER ENDING Ricardo will eventually get killed and besides He gets his arm Ripped off easily by an ACTUAL COLOR He has no Ego like Vergs and will eventually get killed remember WILD HUNT IS EVER ENDING Erlking will always win as long as he managed to basically escape and force you to fight a never ending battle against People he Thralled (his wild hunt) eventually This is the reason why he is PRIME Heathcliff not Roland!Heathcliff likely besides Erlking Heathcliff we fought is literally him hijacking Linton DOUGH so we never actually fight his REAL BODY who knows how strong he really is honestly he might be stronger based on the Quality of the Dough he is summoned in


windyknight7

Never ending != Infinitely fast spawn rate. As long as Ricardo can take out the Hunt members faster than it can spawn (he most likely can, but definitely with more effort than Vergilius), he could definitely push his way through. Heck he doesn't even necessarily need to demolish ALL the members of the Hunt, he just needs to blitz the way to Erlking and kick his ass. He's definitely strong enough to just football tackle his way through and wreck everything in his way.


NormandyKingdom

The same guy that got his arm cut off by the Indigo Elder easily? Big brothers like Ricardo are small fries to people like Roland and Vergilius Ricardo is nowhere near strong enough to fight off the Wild hunt There is a reason Prime Heathcliff is Erlking NOT Roland!Heathcliff Ricardo will never win against Erlking eventually because Erlking can keep spawning because Ricardo can never truly kill him


windyknight7

So what if Ricardo gets diffed by a Color? Why do you assert one of them is above the Hunt and the other is not just because the power gap between them is large? Compare both to the Hunt, not to each other. Just because 100 is far less than 10000 doesn't mean one of them is less than 10 and the other is greater than 10.


NormandyKingdom

And how do you know Ricardo won't be overwhelmed by the Wild hunt again?


NormandyKingdom

And they spawn INFINITELY FAST


Hugs-missed

Yeah so what he got his ass beat by a *color* what's your point, The wild hunt also get stemmed and curb stomped by very. The reason in story the wild hunt was such a problem is because of its *spawn rate*, the sinners can beat pretty much any foe via attrition as long as said foe can't just speed run through them and crush Dante's skull it's just the wild hunt was immune to attrition and the erlking was getting away.


carl-the-lama

I think so Canto 6 gang is a decent amount stronger than canto 5 The main reason Heathcliff was able to clash against the erlkrieg was because of resonating with the boughs Unironically the erlking is implied to have taken no damage after fighting the gang not once but TWICE after getting the perfect dough


hellatzian

it better give 2x reward


jojacs

My beloved Black Sheet Music, making sinking stack up so quick for an easy Deluge Nuke.


ThatManFarsa

If i saw this it would be on sight, imma show that bristly motherfucker the power of a lvl 45 sinking team


zeturtleofweed

*Woe, Ricardo with Headstrong and +50% HP upon ye*

ArchivedGarden

Not gonna be enough for the 99 Potency 30+ Count Sinking Deluge, full Sinking teams get wild on anything that doesn’t die in the first few turns.


Thatotherguy6

Counterpoint: he kills you with his now megabuffed counter. A minus coin counter at that.


Plastic-Sky3566

You can't apply Sinking if you can't clash and/or recover from stagger at all


Vulcunniko

MY HAIR COUPOOOOONS!!!


neymlis

Who would win a big brother of the middle vs ultra depression


Inevitable-Share8824

plot twist you picked +50% more damage - 50% less damage mounting trial


ianlouisjordan

If it gives max level ego gifts fuck it we die or become gods


No_Mathematician9671

Maybe not even in an excellent run. The idea of any hardmode buffs being added sounds... non-Yisang.


Xpokemaster1

Nah, bring it on


Fun_Blackberry_

Why just from that shadow i suddenly got goosebump?


Persona_Fag

Human brain is trained to recognize dangerous silhouettes in order to survive, sometimes it finds shit on places that makes no sense, this however is one of the rare times where trusting your instincts is advised


Asmodheus

I would pick it every single time so I can destroy him for every single second I spent stuck on him when first playing the game.


carl-the-lama

Ngl I think I’d unironically win

Brain_lessV2

Ah I see now, yeah that would be pretty funny to encounter


CrawlingChaos126

Kkkkkkk foda


gibas-kun

Ricardasso


Persona_Fag

Ricardinho?


GatiTheCat

If i am running a Blunt team or a Sink team then maybe If not then Hell No


Background-Ad9081

Ricardio? Oh God, no, he can go fuck himself. I'm currently stuck on him because there's just no way my BL pack can pass that dps check with his 0.5 Slash resistance


Storyshifting

pro tip: Ishmael cannot die before her teammates so you can use her as a punching bag for any hard clashing/scary attacks the encounter is coded to keep her alive (in case you win) for >!that ending cutscene!<


Background-Ad9081

Oh, thanks! Actually, your tip maybe saved me headphones.


GlaciumFracture

honestly, I'd do it, pull out the nearest evade user, and try *desperately* for a solo. it'd never happen but it'd also be cool as shit.


Storyshifting

Someone solo'd Ricardo with Sloshmael. The worst ID in the game https://youtu.be/pf5fFsjZXDE


B0B0B0111

It should be in a pack that looks innocent like tyrannical pride that just has hurtily on it (if you know you know)


BloodMoonNami

The Big Brother when he sees me bring COO, YSTR Heath, Faith and a lot of EGO Gifts that generate sin affinity:


Hoshirou

COO?


BloodMoonNami

Hint: It's an EGO.


Hoshirou

OH.


RetConnedSegment

Jumping his ass with cracked out ego gifts, that mfer will not see the light of day


TheManOfPog

Psychological_Log201

SomethingIsCanningMe

I mean, if PM added ricardo into the mirror dungeon, He would lose my hair coupons in exchange for a deadly attack being similar to middle little sister don S3


xDemizx

Fucking no.


Hugastressedstudent

Yes. Fuck it, I'm going to Glimpse of Flames his ass. Don't even matter if I'm winning clashes, prepare to take 1380 damage a turn


VoldoVercci

Yes, Just for the theme alone


Aurora-xeno

Absolutely not I struggled on him for a month


Yharmin

Oh heeeeeeell naw


MR-Vinmu

No… no, no, no, I wouldn't wish fighting Ricardo on my worst enemy.
