Amaterasu, from the classic gameOkami,is now a playable character inVampire Survivors. Well, sort of. The new character, O’Sole Meeo, is a white dog that spouts flowers in its wake as it moves. The flowers are projectiles from O’Sole Meeo’s starting weapon, the Celestial Dusting. Thisstarting weapon is not very effective— except against bosses, where it becomes very useful. Using O’Sole Meeo is made even more difficult by the fact that it doesn’t get any passive bonuses until reaching level 20.
This character’s weapons gain another projectile every 20 levels, for a maximum of +3 projectiles at level 60. This bonus makes the bullet-hell build optimal for O’Sole Meeo.This build also works well with Gennaro, Mortaccio, Cavallo, and Bianca, because these characters all have the same passive bonus as O’Sole Meeo.

Weapons
The best build for O’Sole Meeo contains as many weapons affected by its passive bonus as possible. The goal is to fill the entire screen with projectiles.Theweapons in this build are:
Get the King Bible as early as possible; its usefulness drops off after the other weapons are fully leveled. The Cross should be selected after opening a weapon slot by combining the latter two weapons into the Phieraggi. When these weapons are fully leveled, enemies won’t even get close to O’Sole Meeo.If the player gets the Bone or Cherry Bomb as a choice, pick them;these should replace the Magic Wand or Cross. Don’t count on getting the Bone or Cherry Bomb as options, as the chance of them being offered is extremely low.
This build uses the following accessories:

Getting all these accessories is crucialfor this build. The Armor is solely for evolving the Runetracer. The Empty Tome and Spellbinder evolve the Magic Wand and King Bible, but these two accessoriesmake the Phieraggi weapon incredibly overpowered. The Tiragisu is needed to make the Phieraggi, and the extra Revives are nice too. The Duplicator, when fully leveled, will add to O’Sole Meeo’s extra projectiles for+5 extra projectiles per weapon. The Bracer is there to boost the speed of the O’Sole Meeo’s projectiles, making them much more efficient in terms of DPS.
The Clover isn’t in this build — this means the player can’t evolve The Cross into the Heaven Sword. Honestly though, the Cross into Heaven Sword is possibly the worst of the weapon evolutions, and is really more of a lateral move than an evolution.
Final Thoughts
Here’s a tip for players having a difficult time getting O’Sole Meeo to the 30-minute mark: players cantype “pet” while playing to summon healing hearts. This can only be done once per play, so use it wisely. The plant enemies inthe Il Molise bonus stagecannot harm O’Sole Meeo, and her Celestial Dusting starting weapon doesn’t hurt the plant enemies (it actually heals them). This was done because the plant enemies don’t move, and the Celestial Dusting’s projectiles fire backwards.
