Vampire Survivors: How To Evolve Clock Lancet

gameranx.com:

Time is always ticking in Vampire Survivors. Each stage you play through comes with a set time limit, and once that time is up, you are meeting the Red Death. With this in mind, controlling some aspect of time can be quite powerful, and this is where Clock Lancet comes into play.

Clock Lancet evolves into one of the most powerful items in all of Vampire Survivors, Infinite Corridor. This weapon has all the benefits of Clock Lancet – namely its ability to freeze enemies in time – but also has the added punch of a nuclear bomb on steroids. 

Infinite Corridor deals screen-wide damage every few seconds that also halves the HP of everything it touches. You better believe this stacks too. This trivialises just about every encounter in the game – including the Red Death (provided you can survive long enough to use it. )

From here, you need to access Holy Forbidden, nab the Yellow Sign, and find two magical rings – and then some. 

They can (and will) take hours, and if you aren’t experienced with Vampire Survivors, you might not
