Limbus Company Gameplay Thread

Friended. No egos on most of the id’s is kinda a bruh, but I guess it’s only a minor inconvenience.


Also while I’m here, I guess I’ll show the amount of friend requests I’ve amassed.

Kinda just felt like stacking them up one day. Pretty sure there’s a lot of requests that expired or something. They’re all early-mid level, which is interesting. Wonder of any of them came from the forums? Could’ve at least dm’ed me, but I guess I willingly threw my friend code out there.


2nd anniversary was unexpected but getting Grip Faust is cool I guess. I already have all the s2 id’s though… I guess I’ll wait on Harpooner Heathcliff for when a s3 nominable comes around.

Also, so much for the whole “limbus is a good gacha because the devs dont know how to make a gacha”. All of the recent events have had limited time microtransactions, plus the Arknights collab is pure fomo.

… plus two extra products below.

give me a moment man

anyways I don’t really see the microtransactions as stopping the good gacha allegations, since they’re still microtransactions that only give you more resources that themselves aren’t needed.

the Arknights collab is fully fomo but to be fair I don’t think PM was allowed to make it follow the Limbus Gacha style and that they had to make them limited time


ok I updated my company to reflect current burn with all my ego, there’s a few E.G.O. that would be nice to have like sunshower outis or yi sang, or awe, contempt ryoshu, but I have every main burn E.G.O. (4th match flame yi sang is a joke, the main 3 star lineup has no gluttony for it) so if you ever need just one burn unit to finish a burn team, my company is the place to go.


shit can’t be real

Probably could’ve made it clearer that I wasn’t actually demanding a burn team right now, mb. I just think finding whales with stacked accounts is quite easy.

I can’t say anything on whether limbus is a better gacha then others, but the microtransactions are absolutely a problem for this image.

“more resources that themselves aren’t needed” you could say that for any resource. The limited transactions are super shiny, time limited, and have unique “takeoff items”. They also just generally have very useful resources. They also have transactions for the impatient folks, which is kinda funny but also tragic.

Not gonna lie, I don’t see this “nice gacha” image sticking around in the next few years. There just might be an interest to make money when you can.

had the same experience on my first f10

even with lunar memory clear water all that damage shit full bleed build they still wont relent

like man look at this shit



(i did eventually clear it by lucking out and not having my bloodfiends killed especially manager don)

Did my first and probably only parallel superposition run with a bleed team. My curiosity about an endless mode is satiated and I don’t think I need to touch this anymore for the achievements.

Manager Don was my best unit by far because she has an aoe s2 with a damage boost and an insane s3.

The most important things seem to be choosing the easiest mounting trials over good ego gifts, which basically means boosting enemies’ health to ludicrous amounts (10k) and avoiding any number boosts (offense level is least bad of them all). Also increasing your own level whenever possible, I got my allies at level 68 and the enemies at ~78.

The only viable strats I see are are lunar memory + CMCW (also id’s with damage conditionals) and glimpse of flames. Rupture seems too slow though and the burn id’s might be miserable for regular wave clears. The other statuses are probably only for proccing conditionals.

So basically, if I was to give a tip:

first, you NEED ego gifts like Grand Welcome, Blue Zippo Lighter, Coffee n Cranes, etc as soon as possible. Ego spam is the sole way of winning everything beyond a certain point, effectively.

After this, you NEED Faith.

Then, get the fragment of your archetype of choice

then get nebulizer and poise gifts

that’s basically how you win. I used Glimpse of flames to make this not an absolute snorefest of waiting. If you have a bloise team you can also just abuse the broken power of bleed and poise ego gifts with their coinpower bonuses

sir it’s been 11 years

I am so dang glad I got the warp train fusion gifts and the pieces of relationship dude, that was probably what saved my charge run from the enemies with 28 LEVELS OVER THEIR ORIGINAL ONE.

Anyway, I got all of the memories and enough sin fragments to get the lunar memory, but I didn’t really bother with it. I was more focused on getting all of the ego gifts I can get so I could actually contend with most clashes without ego.

28 levels above your characters???
on my run I just did as many random events as possible and nabbed the level up gift and ended up with only a 3 level difference by the final boss lol.

New intervallo dropped. Did it in one sitting.

  • Another free 3*, might become the norm for future events.

  • Powercreep is real, new rupture id’s don’t skimp out on count. They look cool as per usual, and I like the experimental poses they’re doing for the splash art.

  • H Corp looks interesting. Love the Kowloom Walled City aesthetic and the drip there (sometimes). I would prefer a more… explorative (?) way of learning about a city rather than just having the singularity explained early on.

  • Ricardo’s return was surprising if you didn’t see the teaser or die during the fight… I feel like we’ve been making too many enemies? Having them blast off away was really funny though, also the guy’s suicide speedrun.

  • [sinners] They’re really putting emphasis on the strength of the sinners since I’m pretty sure only the 5 strongest sinners survived the ambush. This was also surprisingly focused on Outis.

  • I’m enjoying the brevity of the story segments. Canto 4 had sooo many filler fights, but the new cantos and intervallos are shorter and have way less repetition in their fights.

  • Not enjoying how PM has added two limited-time microtransactions to every event so far. I guess being a “gacha game made by people who don’t know how to make a gacha” only lasts for so long. I have a morbid curiosity to hear from anybody who actually buys these.

honestly I really don’t see the issue with this.
its not like they’ve made it harder to get resources, it doesn’t affect me at all.

The Heishou Ids are pretty cool and strong, the fact they just need to use their clashable counter to get their conditionals is insane, and nearly no enemies can do much about their speed.

intervallo spoilers below, read at your own risk

Fighting the Heishou units with Blade Lineage units was pretty cool, even if they’re completely separate entities. Maybe it was because of Meursault’s own bamboo hat.

Ricardo was one heck of a difficulty spike, was on that stage for an hour lol. The unbreakable coins don’t make it any better.

The sweeper stage was one heck of a spectacle. Everything hit right. But I do see these guys being extremely annoying in the mirror dungeon though.

i love spending 10 minutes dealing with fodder to get blasted by bad rng against ricardo :blush:

for the love of god i just wanna fast foward combat animations


hot take: they shouldn’t lumped 7.5-24 with the stage nerfs that stage was literally fine

the stages before those however? yeah no the amount of enemies and coin rolls have to be cut in half fighting them was pure bullshit even though i didnt have to reset on them
i let one snowball up to 45 and that shit was painful never again

all in all it was a good intervallo i guess glory to yurivile

actual intervallo spoilers

i really like how the sweeper fight is presented visually (gameplay-wise not so much i hate reuse unbreakables but i feel like its accurate to the NiTB experience), i think this goes right near the seat of the ferris wheel in canto VII

canto 4 already got changed to not be filler a while ago.

3 star reward ids have been mentioned before by PM as the new standard

limited time microtransactions are not making the game a gacha game suddenly

anyways yea I enjoy this intervallo after the apparent nerfs that I didn’t know about. Beat Ricardo on the first try with 4 sinners having died and been replaced, which was nice. It’s interesting that apparently Ricardo no longer has strong clashing (dashing through the opponent when breaking their coin, standing still and knocking the opponent back when losing a coin) in this fight.

kinda funny how pm tried to make rupture balanced with 15x3, then went “fuck it here have some strong group’s identities they should be able to justify being fucking broken with a broken status effect” after all this time.
