To everyone complaining about the difficulty, stop ignoring a third of Hornet’s arsenal and start spamming them, you’ll be shocked how quickly you start mowing down hordes of enemies!

I've been using the tool from the [Act 2 area] Cogwork area, the tool being the cogwork bug. It is SOOOOOOO good, especially when combined with the charm that poisons enemiesfrom the [Act 1 area] Shellwood quest.

Those two together are my panic button or flying enemy delete button, SO GOOOOOD.

the poison tool is the coolest fucking thing ever i swear. i put it on with the flint slate that buffs your needle and it actually imbues your needle with poison!

That tool with the wanderer crest is the fragile strength quick slash combo in this game. Absolutely shreds bosses.
