Vampire Survivors: Exdash Stats
Exdash is certainly an interesting character in this reversebullet hell game, with negative modifiers applied to Move Speed, Might, Area, Speed, and Duration. Additionally, the secret character has a positive modifier applied to their Cooldown, making them even more difficult to survive with. Exdash does have +100% Luck, though, and here is a full list of their base stats for players that are curious:
Quite clearly, Exdash’s Luck modifier is their primary asset, as that stat can produce a number of positive effects. More specifically, Luck lowers the chance of “negative events,” like bat swarms, occurring, while also improving the chances of getting high-quality chests and good items from destroying braziers. Additionally, the Luck stat makes it possible forindie gamefans to get a fourth upgrade choice when leveling up, which can certainly be a boon.
Luck also increases the chances of scoring critical hits, though that is only possible to do with two weapons at the time of writing. Indeed, the Bloody Tear and the Heaven Sword are the game’s only crit-capable weapons currently, and both of them are obtained throughVampire Survivors' weapon evolutionmechanic. As such, it is recommended that players that want Exdash to be effective in combat focus on one of those two weapons rather than their starting weapon, the Ebony Wings.
