For the Nihil, would the scrolls be recommended or not? The pouch is very expensive compared with a Titan, so I'd rather not turn them into scrolls unless I had to.


You don't need the scrolls

Excellent. Guess I can stop collecting elder energy and Icyene feathers then!

All I did was use full virtus and a nox staff (that I borrowed from a friend). No switches apart from darklight. Use blood barrage and spam steel titan on potentially long rounds (use summ pots). Use sunshine and chain on rounds with a lot of monsters.

I got to round 23 and I'm no pro at all.
I Slay things, sometimes.

Titan worked better for me than the nihil, and tbh it's such a waste of money atm when a pouch is 60k...

I tried both, the Titan and the Nihil. The latter worked better for me.
It should be no less responsive than the nihils. The titan is also actually fairly accurate, at least with it's range and magic attacks - it's melee on the other hand is atrocious - which is an important thing to note when using one, as the scrolls use melee/range depending on distance, and you only really want the ranged version. Failing to do so will often result in mass-misses with it's useless melee attack.

I can see nihils doing better on ganos as they're practically invulnerable to everything but magic, but TDs the titan obliterates with great ease with scroll usage and thresholds.

Ice nihils provides a magic accuracy boost in general, which helps for a lot of things if you're struggling to hit (using t90 mage it'd be far less useful). There are alternatives to magic accuracy however (or you can stack a couple) - the scrimshaw of magic (comes at the cost of the damaging boosting one though), void (comes with an additional damage boost) and the slayer helm (only one assigned target at a time though) for instance, void probably being the best alternative/stacking option for this - nothing in rush of blood is going to significantly outdo SS healing if you're keeping up with the ideal pace despite the terrible defence anyway.

Steel titan on the other hand is mostly just about the burst with scrolls on TDs - massively speeding up one type of wave (and skipping the need for changing styles repeatedly mid wave - saving APM in the end), but rather unimpressive for the rest. Not that it's bad for others mind - the scroll is essentially a threshold worth of ranged damage - it's just that more than anything it's there for the TDs, the rest is just saving 1-3 seconds every so often. Set scroll usage to a hotkey and it doesn't really use much extra APM to begin with either.
