Author's category · 1 items · If you're avoiding early fights - generally good tho
Golden Goose Egg
Sell at 10:01 for optimal efficiency or 30 if you're playing coward
9You generally wanna avoid fights early and just play for farm, denies, and space. This is why egg is really nice since it helps you get online faster. Echo Wall playstyle got nerfed so not as good but it can be gimmicky.
