Fairly standard opener, Gift Search gives Hoarfrost assuming Haunted Shoes are in the shop, Made-to-Order gives #3 Ishmael more damage and damage resistance.

Gear Shrapnel is the big winner here with how much it buffs Counters, Implicit Contract is useful until you get Lunar Memory, and is also a Sin econ gift.

Middle run that leverages the power of friendship (within their faction) to trigger both Burn and Bleed gifts, with some optimal and sub-optimal pack picks that I use in my own runs.

Cetacean Heart is ideal for Poise generation, and when paired with the La Manchaland Pass and Nebulizer, gives the Middle nearly infinite Poise.

Buffs for the HoS/Heathcliff, as well as Gregor and Yi Sang.

Snake Slough is unusually helpful due to The Middle's counter spam. False Halo is a standard pick.

Absolutely load bearing pack for the run, missing any of the three donor gifts is likely to lead to a reset from missed opportunity.

Bridle is tremendous for keeping Middle Alive, especially in later floors with constant passive chip damage.

Jolly Plushie. Enough said.

All three of these packs have the same rewards. La Manchaland All-day Pass gives the Middle a ton of Poise support, while Devouring Cube is useful for sin economy. Token of Victory is fairly useless, but 2/3 of a Clash Power might be a make or break at some point.

Self-explanatory pack.

Waiter, more healing on hit please!

♫ I don't want to set the world on fire... ♫

Easy pack.

Outstandingly easy pack.
