Risk of Rain 2
Hi, started playing this gem of a game lately with friends, and it's been a blast.

The classic multiplayer roguelike, Risk of Rain, returns with an extra dimension and more challenging action. Play solo, or team up with up to three friends to fight your way through hordes of monsters, unlock new loot, and find a way to escape the planet.
With each run, you'll learn the patterns of your foes, and even the longest odds can be overcome with enough skill. A unique scaling system means both you and your foes limitlessly increase in power over the course of a game--what once was a bossfight will in time become a common enemy.
Myriad survivors, items, enemies, and bosses return to Risk 2, and many new ones are joining the fight. Brand new survivors like the Artificer and MUL-T debut alongside classic survivors such as the Engineer, Huntress, and--of course--the Commando. With over 75 items to unlock and exploit, each run will keep you cleverly strategizing your way out of sticky situations.
Key Features
Play four player co-op seamlessly through Steam — no more port forwarding
Unlock over 75 items over time, keeping each run fresh and full of new challenges
Play and unlock new and returning survivors, each with their own abilities to master
Theorycraft and exploit endless item and character combos
Encounter challenging monsters and enormous bosses
Explore massive, handcrafted 3D levels
Discover lore through the collection of Monster, Item, and Environment Logs
Challenge your friends—and the world—in all-new Prismatic Trials, a unique seeded run where everyone can race up a global leaderboard

imo I think with items Merc is probably one of the stronger class options. If you get Hoppers for extra jumps, Extra Mags, The flight utility, or HEAD-ST then it's very easy for Merc to stay airborne indefinitely. since RMB suspends you in the air when you move it's basically an extra jump. He already starts with two, and with an Extra Mag or two you can literally just port around your enemies in the air.
If you stay perma airborne your only true disadvantage is that it's a lot harder to dodge, and if you fall behind in items or get really bad rng you basically should just restart your run
Give Merc some survivability like Medkits, Leech Seeds, Foreign Fruit/Woodsprite and you become an unstoppable machine when you get rolling
TL ; DR - Sword boi good
Anyways, I'm a Huntress Main, game is too fun. I have done far too many runs already, 4 man squads are hectic but insanely fun. Also never use the fucking shine that combines your items into one from each rarity you have, shit's ass
Me and a buddy tried to activate the gold shrine on our duo run but he lagged out when we teleported in, and it was too hard to do alone. Has anybody beat the special boss that spawns in there?
