i had happiest mask im pretty sure
Is alien head worth unlocking
avsolutely
Am I supposed to just hold the shield and keep shooting for 5 minutes as enforcer?
sounds easy, but too boring
can you increase max player count in RoRR?
let me know if you find it
🫡
Anyone knows what ancient scepter does on the secret character?
has a chance to double items in hacked chests iirc
Where do I find the illegal shipment
it should just be a background chest in the final stage
somewhere in storage
Thank you
Sounds cool 😌
I've got my hands on it, I'll post it spoilered in #theorycrafting
ok got it, SPAM INTERACT IN STORAGE
yeah pretty much
20% chance
thats how i got it, thought it was a cloaked chest at first
i think i found some sort of bug
too much attack speed stops you from actually holding down the button to attack?
anyone know?
acrid the miner unlock dude
Gonna get command first before trying to get the funny little guy
there is a another evente that spawns that counts a hidden bosses
Someone said the imps from artifact of origin also count
is the loader in this game different from the loader in ror2?
like not mechanic wise
cause in ror2 Loader is a she and in rorr Loader is a he
s oi need to kill acrid, the elder lemurian and what more?
dont tell me i need to kill ||robomando|| i dont want to do that again ;-;
Providence
If I’m trying to unlock the hidden survivor and I die on stage 4 (with the battery) if I start a new run will it be there on the second stage or so do I have to start completely over?
start over
Ugh.
ok
Also, as long as I hit the timer on 22 minutes exactly it’s fine right? Even if my timer runs over due to money converting to xp?
Yes
All the survivors are
It's fine as long as it's between 22:00 and 22:59
Oh.
Since its a different crash
Okay then. Time to speed run.
True
ahh alright
But yeah even the ones that look the same are different people
Like commando is just a different guy but with the same suit
Any tips for getting drifter?
cant catch a break lol
for me it was just looping and trying to find the equipment that repairs drones
then just spam drones until you find a recycling machine
Am I playing artificer wrong or is she just like kinda weak in comparison to the other survivors?
yes people think she's undertuned
they've already stated they're looking at her kit
Okay thanks, just wanted to make sure I'm not crazy
is there a specific trigger/unlock for going to The Hive?
at first i thought i was just unlucky but its been around 6 runs and ive only gotten the magma place lol
what's the configuration for the gups in the miner providence trial?
Soo I have a question someone may know
nope stages are random
jesus i really do just have horrible luck then
I did all of the requirements to get robomando, I mean followed it to a T but when I hit the tp at 22 minutes it took me to the wrong stage...
check the totems in the background, the size, amount and position are all relevant
thaks
robomando will spawn regardless of which stage 4 you get
sometimes he can spawn in secret areas of the stage which can be impossible to get to if you don't have enough movement
Hmm i couldn't find it on magma barracks. I'll have to try again
or if you just don't know about them
Ty
does hitlist add to the base stat of a character ?
cause if it does it has to be the best red item
yes it increases your damage stat by 0.5 per marked enemy killed
it caps at 20 so after 40 marked kills
yeah it's pretty good
it just triples the base stat of a survivor
Oh that’s cool!
if u make it so players can only take 10% dmg and u win does it count as a win?
is my game bugged?
anyone know how to get to that secret area?
Have you tried jumping into the wall? Idk if it would work but it’s worth a shot
I did ye, it didn't work though
Either it’s nothing or there is a different entrance. Can’t tell from that photo
I couldn't find anything to climb down on top either, I could grab a sc from above too
Probably nothing then.
in case anyone knows
feels like there's a good chance it's nothing though lol
pretty sure that one's nothing
Just scenery.
oh well lol thanks y'all 💙
Is the drone for the Engi turret unlock a chance based thing to spawn or is it specific spawn conditions?
?
what is the 11th thing
it's a tier 3 drone so it only spawns after you start looping, you can also combine 3 laser drones at an upgrader
I got stuck in the terrain and can't get out, what do?
Yep.
just cry
happened to me earlier

do we have any comfirmation that all characters will have 3 skins or is there favoritism?
is rorr lagging horribly for anyone else or
Whats a good way to get consistent runs
As of now i feel like getting a good run relies entirely on my items
Anybody else's Steam Deck running the game at half speed? The original RoR as well as RoRR both run at a super slow speed during gameplay. Like my character and all the enemies running through molasses
so if i store battery on final stage and beat prov, then close the game will it still save for me to get battery next time i log on?
Play loader
You'll win most games
How do you get the Boar Beach environment log?
What are some items that can actually boost Ceremonial Dagger damage?
that is how roguelikes works but
you can do stuff to get better
just get better with the controls and shit
pretty much everything that boosts damage normally; hit list, crowbar, golden gun, etc
so quite a lot of items
ok so crowbar does work 
how do i do tutorial again?
controls settings
what stages does the artifact shards for the artifact of dissonance spawn on again I know hive cluster and ancient valley but I don't remember the other 2
weird place to put it but it's there
Nevermind I found it.
I got the battery but i dont see the secret area to leave it
Wait
No thats stage 6
Im just a fool
This is actually super easy, I got it in a single run, every temp item seems to count
Nono i feel like my movements fine
Its mostly just like
ig i worded it weirdly but i mean just like get generally better at the game
better at using your abilities and equipments
better at dodging
Yk how if you started ror2 when u first played u struggled to get past a certain point? Like you feel confident in stage 1-3 but stage 4 suddenly kicks ur ass and you feel like your doing no damage
and choosing items
Ive decided which items are good or not at this point
Dont have them all yet but i havw most
||ive done 8+ runs in search of the secret pot, ive searched the pen-ultimate area up and down left and right each time for a fat 20 minutes or so and havent found an interactable pot, mashed E on each and every one, ive memorized at least each variant now but havent found it.||
||AM I DOING ANYTHING WRONG?||
what is your general strategy for looting and exploration?
because the recommended pace is very different to ror2 where you can full loot very comfortably
So its usually like
I typically loot but main priority is find teleporter
And then start it and then do most the looting
Apparently ||Artifact of Sacrifice disables the pot from spawning entirely, also double check your difficulty, I did most of the steps earlier only to have it default to the wrong difficulty and shaft me out of the spawn||
yeah.. just found out you have to do it on drizzle
Each time you pay for it it activates the item inside 1 time
i crave the sweet release of death
ohhh
hmm that sounds about right, in that case it seems like you generally know what to do so it probably is just a matter of getting better on a mechanical level
Anybody have any hints regarding the challenge for finding "the illegal shipment"?
the hell does CAC do
since the game is less about assembling a proper "build" like in ror2 due to having much less control over the items you gain, it becomes much more about learning the ins and outs of how to use specific items and making the best use out of what you have
is there a way to guarantee laser drone?
can someone please tell me how unlucky i am to get hive cluster 6 times in a row
i can't unlock miner because of it
great, i love my life
Can't get the game until my next paycheck and wanted to ask if Returns could go infinite like RoR2
I didn't get it last 3 times I combined drones or last 4 times I was at the Contact Light
yes, like the original too
(just don't stack hundreds of bundles of fireworks and you'll be fine)
Awesome
not sure about "fine"
||It's in the final stage. There's a chest hidden in plain sight.||
I have a BEEFY pc, 4090TI and I get crashes about an hour or two into runs depending on the build
Sounds about right
||Oh, well I guess I'm blind lol. Is it always there?||
Yes, but it's unlike any other chest.
I think im having the easiest time getting runs with drifter because with her i can get more of a proper build like in ror2
They removed half the fun of fireworks by making them spawn sequentially though, the original you would open a barrel and crater to 1FPH
can't delete provi with key anymore 
just wait until mod support comes out, I'm sure that'll be made into a mod almost immediately @woven dust
dont think so, pretty sure it pure rng
You can either smash 3 laser drones together or loop forever until you get one, that's it
You sorta can if you have the time and lack of self control
good luck
Just snag the Brooch and spawn a billion chests in his room, then wait for the box to give you key
Takes about 30 minutes, but it's very funny up until he reaches armor phase
The smarter way is to open the chests one at a time, but if you want big boom instead of a good tactic, there you go
ваще ничего не понел
whats the base crit chance?
im curious how did the community find out how to ||unlock robomando was there any clues in the game towards the steps?||
Zero. Items that have an effect on crit also give a small chance to crit.
Erm guys i may have made a blunder
I picked up tesla coil and forgot about robomando
Will tesla coil and barbed wire kill him?
Or can i just turn him on, run away and die to other causes
I hope he doesn’t have to be targeting me all the time for it to count
He’s tanky as hell, just make sure you don’t fight back ||(he also steals all your items)||
On local coop can i play with only one keyboard?
Oh ok if he does that then i dont have to worry
Yipee
Can enemies drop equipment from clover
is boar beach in rorr
Yea
nice, been looking havnt found it yet. thanks
Wait can you not get chef with command? I got all the items but no unlock popup
Can you get ||robomando|| if you have command on?
you can
you sure you have all 4 items and the fruit?
I just found a ||Secret tunnel at the very top right of Magma Barracks #1. It leads into a random empty room with a lemurian statue, but otherwise does nothing that I can figure out.|| Anything known about this at all?
There actually were hints, the ball started rolling on that well before RoRR even released.
in #theorycrafting pins, for reference
Basically we used the Cipher learned here, took Bizzo's status (Travel ID:) as a hint for where to use it (Survivor Logbooks), and got a series of hints
Who has the fastest semi-consistent attack?
So excluding things like Drifter and loader Alt-specials
Pilot Alt-primary seems fast but is it #1?
hey, does anyone know how to get into the hidden area in the bottom left of the magma stage? i need to get there for a certain unlock
reklly ror2 had a base crit %1
Huntress Cyclone attack
I knew that was up there too. Is that faster than things like pilot alt primary?
(Assuming only 1 cyclone)
anyone know how to get to the area under the artifact of sacrifice in the magma barracks?
Do you have a picture?
tried uploading to the discord but not sure why it's not uploading
damn
which makes assistance in stuff like this quite difficult
Get a role here: #roles message
tried doing that but wasn't going through, I'll keep trying
here would be my area i'm looking for assistance to, which i believe is right next ot it
try using an ability to slow descent
Take rope to your right
Or fall from the rope there so you aren't falling as fast
god damn it was, not sure why I wasn't able to go through the first couple of attempts
thanks
it was the one Flipbob put an image of
when is risk of rain returns returns coming out?
which is again, strange
youre not gonna believe this
oh i have terribly misread
rorrr
i believe youre discussing a different area
i need to get to that thing down there
was that it?
np
anyone happen to know what that tentacle thing is?
What are the 3 hidden bosses to unlock the huntress primary alt? Akrid, Direseeker and ?
does engi bungus not work in rorr
So how does everyone like the game generally? I'm curious. I don't know much about the first RoR and only have knowledge from the sequel.
providence
How am I supposed to use Enforcer? No, going to a wall doesn't work against parents
thats an artifact, i dont remember which one but its an artifact
Let alone flying enemies, or anything that decides to walk behind you
interesting.. shame im bandit and cant fly :( but i thought only command was on divine temple?
command is on hive cluster

ah right that's artifact of spirit
theres a parkour course you can take by going off the maps right edge that you dont necessarily need extra movement for, but its recommended
Thank God they added this channel
If I die once I have the battery during the robomando, do I have to do the whole thing again? I already did it once but it crashed I really don't want to have to do it a third time.
I thought robomando was a fucking meme
what the fuck
i thought it was some dumb shitpost
lmao
Is there any incentive to loop like in RoR2?
fun
True…
Yep, once you grab battery during the run it will no longer be in the magic chest
So if you crash you gotta do it again
Or potentially you can save edit, but I don't know how to do that
is this the achievement chest? also how tf do i get in here
i used my teleport bow and it wouldnt let me go through there
this is not the achievement chest
that is a legendary/red chest
where is the achievement chest?
in the storage room
behind a keycard?
it looks like a background chest but the colors are more prominent
yes
ty
np
i havent tried getting logs with teleport bow but im pretty sure it doesnt go through fake walls
as in i tped above the wall and held to go right
thought i would go through the wall that way
can you find ||robommando|| in the magma barracks?
yes
For ||robomando|| I got the battery, and was on stage 3, activated the boss teleporter, killed the boss, and waited untill 22:05 to teleport, what did i do wrong?
pretty sure it's supposed to be 22:00 exactly
shit, is that true?
was told 22:00-22:59
it shows in that video
top comment so im not sure
Fuck, found it, and died to birds
with my life
yall, for the artificer multikills, does it need to be in one run?
LOL thats fucked
that is the 15 multikills for the item
sucks ass
I have a question for uh I guess any one, I am running so fast that when I dashed I clipped through the wall and now I am stuck, is there literally anything I can do besides just spam dashing back through the wall
is there a way to scrap items in this game....i just picked up prophets cape by accident for the second time whilst trying to unlock secret surv
nope
Nope. Either somehow dash back out of the wall or restart game :)
fuck should i just reset my run
you could reroll them as drifter if you get his ability, but nope
like is there any way of avoiding the crash
Sadness it is ongoing 77 mins now this run is soooo goooddd
why?
you need to die to him
phropets cape gives you a bit
you can still die to him
yeah but when he attacks u with prophets cape it crashes the game
getting hit by rm with cape on crashes the game
has happened to me twice
welp restart it is for yo them
and i just picked it up by accident
tought luck
so dumb atp ima just edit game files
just use artifact of command and 200% damage
real
do we have confirmation that every character will have 3 skins or will there be favoritism
?
3 unlockable
oh idk
Some strange trees on Desolate forest. Does that have anything to do with an Artifact?
just did judgement with robomando is there no skin for him?
dang
which is sad cause i was hoping to see his stats
what does "special projectile" mean on drifter's secondary?
the scrap she throws out id assume
Hey is the Acrid Challenge "Catchy" spread epidemic to 25 enemies over all, Or spread epidemic to 25 enemies at once?
Do they actually do something though? It just says there’s a small chance to fire a special projectile without any context
I think it's those little gems that fire out occasionally
THey damage in general, I'm not sure what the special ones do extra though
So after buying the stage 5 equipment crate and dying, do i have to put a new battery in it, or?
i mean theres a judgement skin from what ive seen but i dont know if its fake or not
robomando log when though
how to beat the game with all artifacts?
how u drop glass artifact on returns?
will there ever be a macos release for Risk of Rain Returns?
is there a trick to getting the headdress? i looped for 2 hours w/o seeing an ancient wisp spawn as a boss
how does one get in this cave bit
the rope leads to nothing btw
nvm got it dw
yes, duh
is anyone else having issues with bandit smokebomb not working consistently? i swear half the time the invulrnerablity doesnt work for me
whats a busted loader command build that only takes 2 or 3 items?
i hate this trial graaaa
I’m wondering where pilots providence trial is. I completed a few of them but I can’t seem to find his
bottom right
they're all fun except one
Thank you
same i did beat it but i just dont get it
the amount of times you climb up a wall and hit your head against lava
you can angle, but I don't understand why it won't recharge when on wall
im struggling real hard with all the trials tbh. and yeah LOL
these are all the trials i have and the ones i havent completed are all impossible to me
it's so you can't just sit on a wall indefinitely
but you already can
hm lesss see
ok but it still sucks to not be able to stick to the wall like that
like, the whole point of that ability is sticking to walls
the duplicator one i find people not doing the right strat, and the right strat is getting as much alien heads as possible and then just holding jump, some direction button, utility skill and special skill
what will it break in the game design to have the skill recharge while on the wall - is beyond me
it's just rope creation near walls, that's all tbh
gotcha. alien heads come from which chest?
reds
it's the same deal with why you cannot take any offensive options on ropes i would assume, i.e discouraging passive play
oh, you mean in trial
miner's scorching was strange, i struggled really hard at first, but then i found out i just need to hit enemies a few times to get it back high, and then just dodge them around with miner's impeccable mobility
small ones, for 25$
thanks! i'll give it a shot rn
huntress and targets is silly, i dont really have any tips to give, just have to get a good feel when to hit your abilities to hit the targets. It's really good to just kill enemies too
malded real hard on acrid bubbles too. you need like, a specific routing? i was watching albino do it on stream yesterday and he crowned it, i think it's the best to just find the footage of how people do it and repeat
oh yeah and you can hold the jump button to go higher on bubbles, i only learned it yesterday
tbh you just go right side, grab a feather - and enjoy life without bubbles
.... ow
in castle of memories you should spam dynamite, sometimes it hits some props and they drop items
hmmm
bet bet bet
at this point i would be shitting out items non stop
the enemies are hard to kill! but true
😳
let me try out the castle of memories
wont lead to more unlock paths but it's cool
(im slowly trying to make my way to pilot special alt, wherever that may be)
pilot special alt is actually just killing 10 enemies while in the air
without touching geysers
in a normal run
this one gives you the utility yea
and the rest is normal run bound
bet bet bet
Hey quick question how the fUCK do I get to the logbook on the last level
@worn sky just got the castle of memories! :D tyyy
no idea LOL
gamerrr
yeah no need people who unlocked more than me in the chat
i will need to go on a looping run with like all the mobility in the world if i wanna unlock logbooks and prisms
i assume you're talking about the logbook above the cabin and below the bridge doors, if you exit the cabin through the hole in the wall you need to hop up on top of it and in a gap then walk straight to it
almost got scorching heat graaa!!
ya
yea so uhh
no need to kill anyone and in fact try not to
build up heat with z or c, then bolster it back up when it's low on a GROUP of enemies
best option: spawn a bunch of lemurians near a healing golem
kept them healthy and alive till 120s easily
WOOOO i made it!
gg!
gl!
cheers!
didnt crown but hell yeah
okay question regarding huntress- what does it mean by 3 hidden event bosses???
I got 119 on second attempt lmao so yea, possible
:D
I want the alt primary for collection's sake
acrid, direseeker (miner's guy), providence, and two more smaller "bosses" I forgor about
also does drifter really not have any alt skin unlocks? damn...
oooh okay! appreciate it
Providence counts as a hidden boss?
second question regarding huntress, is there a way to guarantee an ancient wisp spawn to kill it without any damage?
I think the 4th one could be the armored boar..?
you can kill it without any damage taken, just stand between bursts, or climb up a tiny bit
the pillars don't hit all the way up
I know that, I mean is there a way to guarantee the spawn of one
they aren't too ahrd thankfully (except in that snip[er trial where there's a fuck ton of em)
uhhh, the moon stage
moon stage?
I forgor the name of second stage that is pretty
sky meadows?
ye ye
it spawns more often there, but it can spawn as a portal boss on some other stages too like underwater one or temple
she has a prism but that's it as far as i know
oh yeah prisms!! I found one for commando actually
??
how does gup sorting work?
are those sorta a "get every other achievement" deal?
prismatic skins? don't all characters get them?
yeah they all do
look closely at background objects ;)
ok so can you see the pillars in the background
you earn them tho, not find, yea?
??? prismatic skins are earned by finding a corresponding prism on stages
they are hints at sizes
ahhh i see
what prism 
the shiny rhombus
Currently trying to find the prism on the ship and GOD kill me now
1 big one, 2 small ones, one small one, and three smallest ones. how tf do u move them 
they aggro on you
the one that always spawns on ror, left of dancing golems?
and you can also push them with secondary and utility
like that one yeah
I need to get to the log book to get to the prism and I have no clue how to
bet ty!
there are many many more
just don't break the top one
my first two
lesgo
sure!
yea you fucked up a bit somewhere
it's a bit tricky, but a very easy trial once you figure it out
also personally I just lure them towards holes instead of pushing, I feel like it's more, uhh... precise?
but you probably will need to push them with skills if you want crown, dunno
WH.
it resets if you kill that gup
i accidentally got one too many small ones into the bottom one and lost
oooh
nah every single gup shall survive
but it's really tricky to separate two small ones
ohhh i found it
ye, just split -> drop -> split -> drop ->...
it really, really is
yaaa, like
like pooping
Anyone know how to get above medbay on final stage?
beat the game w em
yeah
Any good strategies on unlocking drifter?
the repair kit equipment, the free drone it gives can be scrapped
how do I unlock sniper's alt backflip? do I use the normal or charged snipe?
But more often than not I see 3 of a kind drone scrappers than just 1
those are drone combiners, you need scrappers in particular
I would assume normal
alright, cause it says to "kill while backflipping"
and I tries charge shop which didn't work
apparently
idk
does it have to be a standard flip or?
is there any tactic to find TPs / chests faster? Most of the maps feel like a maze
or rather, a standard shot, or a charged one?
nope
I feel like, when I find the TP I have to click it otherwise it would take a long time to search for other chests (that might not be there)
and then so much time finding the way back
all you know - TP isn't close
doesn't say
yea if you spawn in the middle of a stage - good luck
feels like it should have a "ping the TP so it stays as a permanent icon"
so you can always see where it is, after you find it
otherwise if you try to go further, you lose scaling due to time
I'm talking from co-op perspective, it seems like it's a bit better on SP
due to how interactables spawn
i assume its the default one, since most of the unlocks based on default abilites
yeah you need to have some form of damage other than your abilities as you can't shoot while backflipping
fair
Equipment like sawmerang and stuff works
ohhhh
by the way does it need to be a kill kill of providence? or just kill any phase while backflipping?
i heard the doll is the best for this?
Yeah something like doll that instantly activates is probably the best option
can also use alien head and hardlight afterburner so you can spam the backflip so you dont miss it
Hello, I was wondering if anyone has gotten into modding yet?
what part of the ship lead to this box? need help for the 4th card
the keycard will drop from gold containers and if there arent any left they drop from enemies
oh so i just need to farm more enemys then it will eventually drop?
thats how i did it
okay tks
oh i got it
it works, thanks
Would you know any good database on modding?
Oh there’s plans for official support?
Well… there’s things I don’t like about the Game to the point I’m willing to learn how to mod it on my own
But if there’s official support planned then I’ll keep playing 2
okay
Ty for responding tho
hey what are enforcers alternate ability's
which do each replace
sharpnel primary, tackle secondary and special disperse
question regarding sixth sense- is it specifically damage FROM the ancient wisp, or damage in general while he's up?
thanks
Is there any current timeframe for Modding implementation, or is it still undetermined?
buddy the game just came out
Yeah, and the devs have talked about implementing modding. I didn't ask for modding to be released this week, did I
is this a part of cognation
Anyone know how to get this pilot skin?
is the mouse a thing in game yet?
if i have drifter's temporary items would it be possible to unlock chef this way?
maybe not sure, but even with command you cant choose what items you get from your special
yo does anyone know where to get the artifact that makes all items temporary (dont say where but just what stage/stage variant)
Are there artifacts that can only be found and unlocked upon looping? Are artifacts just RNG, you never know which one you'll get on a particular stage -- or they're just set?
i dontk now about the looping but stages have variants (most stages have 6 variants) that have different stuff and stage geometry
they are all in set locations on the variants
i think
That might be the one thats bugged
hey, how does one unlock the hyper threader in rorr?
A Rung Above trial
cheers
press the buttons
lol ty
Does 1 prism unlock 1 skin or do you need multiple prism to unlock a skin?
1 each
what is the sniper's alternate secondary?
Quick Scope, I believe. Creates a reticle in front of you that moves forward if held down. Deals damage in an area around it when released.
Can be unlocked by doing the "Bullseye Only" Providence trial or by clearing 25 stages as Sniper.
What exactly do i have to do for this altar?
Ah
if you go to the right youll see a box you need to interact with
across the gap
so how do you get in here? cognation artifact, desolate forest variant 4
climb down a vine
oh hello
which one, where
aight then bet
Probably any damage, just to be sure
why does HAN-D not have a help tip
How to reach this log?
a lot of hopoo feathers
pilot can also climb up there with alt utility
merc secondary with a million backup mags
whats the point of chefs alternate primary? honestly seems like a straight downgrade to me
Okay so uhm
How the hell do you deal with magma worms? No matter how I run, they always hit me on the way down
#providence-trials message
Unironically just jump
when they come out the ground and go back in
it's the only point they have a hitbox
it's very dumb
Try playing on 1x zoom and jump when they're coming down. 2x barely gives you any time to react from my experience
So I can be right under the damn thing and if I'm in the air when the head hits the ground I don't take damage?
pretty much
WHERE IS THIS DARN MAP LOG
Pretty sure right edge of the map
Dunno how to get to it though
I have a feeling there's a gap in the wall about two ropes up
I mean, which one're you missing?
dont they hit drones too though is it just when energing from or hitting the ground at their head?
they literally only have a damaging hitbox when they emerge and burrow back into the ground so i don't think they should
I swear they nuke my drones but I'll take your word for it
Might be that drones' hitbox extends weirdly (or just for that attack it does)
i dunno maybe someone at hopoo did a fucky wucky but they definitely can't hit you if you jump
i swear if the drone hitbox is a disproportionately large rectangle that would be hilarious
Im missing the 5th one and it's frusterating because I feel as though I am look thoroughly, but it's either the rng of not finding the right variant or something
I usually full looted stages for eclipse in 2, is that a bad idea in Returns?
Fellas, does anyone know how to get to that chest?
yes full looting is very not recommended here
timer actually does something in this game
Lmao wtf
I activated tp, toxic beasts spawned right on top of my and I got oneshot
general flow would be; search stage for tele and open stuff you find on the way, then activate tele when you find it unless you literally find it in like 10 seconds, kill boss open what you can while tele charges then leave
Seems reasonable to on rainstorm but not on monsoon, is ot generally best to bee line to teleporter and only grab whats in eyeshot?
since the tele doesn't lock purchasables in this game generally when tele is charging or for a bit after is prime time to grab loot
and you won't really have money issues due to more spawns and money from boss
Hold the down button down while going to the left from that spot
Loader's alt primary seems kind of bad
Have the new artifacts been founded and if so where can I go to find them
what do you mean by new
Isn't that accessible by coming from inside the ship through a semi-hidden passageway?
Or is that on another variant of it?
IIRC they don't have contact damage, just their attacks
yeah worms are just one big lie in this game
Also why can bandit throw out alt utility and just be invincible it's kinda broken
And how the hell does arti get anything done her primary does shit and is practically melee. Barely has a mobility skill, charging up the bomb is death, and so are the flames
Thanks. That makes sense. I played her and thought there's no way she reaches stage 3 with that kit
i mean you can definitely still beat monsoon she's not unusable, but she definitely has the most undertuned kit in the game rn
Hm maybe if you aren't as shit as I am lol
Alt bandit is the only one I've had success on so far, but I also just unlocked engi and loader so gotta try those
Entropy and seeing ghost
Does anyone know how to unlock those two achievements
yeah
entropy is || arriving at the stage before contact light before 16min ||
Sounds like a glass/Command 200%/10% run is in my future then, 'cause goddamn that's a challenge
and seeing ghost is || killing a special boss under #4 forest on the right ||
yeah I did it in my commando no hit run
with glass
Hey so how good is mercenary? Cause I did a 4 player monsoon run and I was the only one to actually be able to make it to providence(and this was the first time ever beating a monsoon run on my "own") so I don't know whether it's cause of my skill or if it's just cause I picked a really good survivor?
Cause mercenary feels really good to play you know?
Most all survivors are good, but if you find one you gel well with, it'll be a lot easier
what does this mean
i gotta be shit idek what this is LOL
first stage variant 4
There's a specific variant of Desolate Forest (one of the 2 first stages), that has a secret area
you need luck
oh shoot ok
put x1 zoom to see it on the right of the map
do I need a specific charactyer to get into the area(explosives, movement) or no
anyone know how to tet the orange pilot skin yet?
pick huntress for her special boss achievement
yeah
🗣️
Which land mine is better for engi
what's this? when I enter the area there's a sound, but there's no artifact
late, but yes. also, the engineer is not the same engineer
That's Desolate Forest yeah? I know it spawns in a different location than the altar on that one
yes
Whichever you enjoy//like more
So yeah, time to look around the level and find out
found an artifact shard and unlocked honor. kind of confused about the shrine though
Do you get the providence monster log in the same way you get all the others?
Yeah, it's the only artifact I'm aware of that can spawn outside its shrine
Guys any tips on how to beat the bandit smokebomb trial ?
#providence-trials is probably better for Trial specific stuff, but anyways: Take it slow, there's no time limit and monsters don't respawn (and spawn rather limited)
throw the bombs at ennemies
And use the bombs effectively yeah
Oke guess I’ll keep hammering my head into it
yeah luck
Is there any drone information in game?
does robomando contribute to logbook completion?
damn guess I gotta get to grinding, cheers
🤝
not intended to be bait, but why is arti so bad?
he was always bad
I mean it's natural that characters aren't equal, but why is she a problem in both games. feels like devs were always worried about her being too powerful
yeah
anyone have a clue what this rainbow thing is
Yes, it's a Prism (Prismatic?) shard!
It'll unlock a skin for a character, if you unlock the character and find that specific shard again (This one's for Acrid)
much appreciated!
About the ||Secret|| ||Survivor||
Even though there's no logbook entry for ||Robomando||, has anyone gone into the game's files to figure out what their base stats are? I mean the "max health 80 (+28 per level)" crap. (That's the only one I know so far.)
Also their speed compared to the other survivors, since that isn't a displayed stat in the logbooks (for some reason).
It'd be nice to know so I can give this information to modders. <:]
Also same goes for the ||Battery Equipment|| too I guess.
Has anyone done the challenge to drown 20 whorls and if so what character did you use
I haven't yet, probably a good one to do at some point since I've got the artifact for it, but I'll probably use Enforcer
does this mean kill 10 with 1 right click or just one shot 10 enemies without not one hitting any of them?
i wouldn't bother :D, i always just play then at any point it will happen by itself.
If it's drown, i suggest enforcer or miner, they have great knockback
10 in a row
kill 10 enemies by one shotting them, without failing to one-shot any
strange, pretty sure I did that
would you guys recommend alternate or base right click?
Doesn't have to be secondary, can also be primary
I'm not sure if the penetration of Sniper's secondary would count for 1 or more one-shot kills
if you one shot 10 enemies with secondary it counts
i would imagine HAN-D is good for it
As JynX said, it'd be "10 in a row." for "Consecutively".
If it said "Simultaneously", it'd mean to kill them all at once.
did it, used the quickscope alternate
works pretty well
another question, what are "Unique Event Bosses" for huntress's challenge?
That'd be ||Acrid||, ||Direseeker||, and ||Providence|| I believe?
||Direseeker being the Miner lizard||
Whats the most general purpose survivor to learn fundamentals for this game
I’m assuming commando
Playing monsoon
uh unless you are literally the greatest gamer on earth i wouldn't recommend learning the fundamentals on monsoon but go for it if you want
monsoon while learning is tough af
could someone give me a hint on how to get the pickaxe guy?
thanks, people are saying there is something like a ||Boar of The Boreal Valley|| as well but no idea
you have to find a hidden room in lava land
I found rainstorm easy and feel that a more punishing difficulty makes mistakes stick out more
Either way, what character do you recommend
right well you are probably right with commando, there are some more interesting alternatives like bandit who is basically a slightly spicier commando with default loadout
for learning melee han-d or miner are good for learning the playstyle
i only got miner after over 30 hours played, so learning with miner most likely wont happen
miner gives you good understanding on abusing i-frames for survivability and han-d is good for learning how to control crowds of enemies without just dying
acrid isn't really a pure melee survivor though he has his own weird hybrid playstyle
which is great for learning
i mean it's good for learning him it don't think his playstyle overlaps with other survivors much as others though
good for learning to kite properly though very important for acrid
i havent played much acrid, but i felt his playstyle was similar to loader
especially with charge punch
Is there an unlockable skin for the secret character
if you can play him in the providence trial, probably
I looped the temple of the elders like 6 times but the vase with the item that is needed to unlock robomando never appears.
any clues on what I might have done wrong?
are you on drizzle
nah rain storm
what do I have to do to get my fastest boss kill time below 0:1
you have to be on drizzle for it to spawn
I just realised that it's kinda funny that difficulty purists can't get the battery lmao
yeah it seems to be only drizzle for the vase, and not drizzle for the rest
i keep seeing people saying sniper is the best survivor but i literally cannot play him ?
i must be bad no
He can kill bosses easy with Special + Default Secondary but he needs items or drones to help him with close quarters combat
He seems like an acquired taste to me. I’m not very good as him either
Yo I asked a question I general for good controls but I'll just ask here too what controls do u guys recommend I am used to playing on my keyboard cuz if TBOI but I often play other roguelikes like Dead cells, Hades, Bb entropy effect on controller
doesn't have to be in one run btw
with a bit of skill and a lot of crowbars you can one shot every boss
even providence
I use ror2 controls because it's what I'm used to and I don't have to press keys and bind my abilities to my mouse, but it's personal preference at the end of the day
As Winnis said, find a hidden room in lava land but keep in mind it's not always accessible
it's usually at the bottom right (I'm pretty sure) of the map where you'll see a narrow tunnel half filled with lava
Yeah it is, there are just map varients if you don't toggle the setting and it can have that section blocked off
Spoilers: Secret 16 question ||Do we have a track name for Robomando's Credits song?||
objectively how good/bad is han-d's alternative 4th skill? the buzzsaw
I used chef
how do you unlock this skin?
In what stage variant of sunken tombs can I get the ||Artifact of enigma||?
Bless the rains down in Africa
unobtainable prism skin for now (as far as i know)
and its not the only one
ohh thats sad
thanks anyway
damn they really made the sickest skin in the game unobtainable
literally unplayable
wrong, because the sickest skin is white acrid
Does anyone know how to get the ||artifact of Tempus||?
Its literally the only artifact I have left to obtain
Have you tried every stage variant?
I don’t get what you mean
Try jumping and walking
💀
not to mention your survivor’s movement
what is this?
i am not sure if this is neccesarily a bug or just a biproduct of my games resolution, but my native monitor is 2560x1440, and the menus look incredible zoomed in, ill drop some picture examples below:
A pedestal for an artifact although it seems you haven't fulfilled the requirements for it to spawn here
i lied its not letting me put images in chat, but my menus are incredibly zoomed in, i crossed referenced it with a friend who plays 1920x1080
have you tried playing with the zoom scale and hud scale settings at all ?
yeah, both are set to what i believe is the minimum, 1x
^ apologies i meant to make the above sentence a response
no worries I saw it, I just don't really know what else you could do aside from that, like are you playing in fullscreen ? And If so, have you tried windowed ?
i am playing fullscreen, and turning off fullscreen seems to change nothing(?)
what do you mean it changes nothing ? Shouldn't it go to windowed ?
what does mercs alt special actually effect?
it looks the exact same but is windowed is i guess what im getting at
his alt special doubles all his hits, im not sure if im understanding your question though
and changing the windowed resolution doesn't change anything either ?
it does, but then its a tiny ass window haha
the menuing looks more zoomed out, which is what i want, and i can see more of it
thanks, that about clears it. I was wondering if was only his primary
not sure then maybe someone who also has a big monitor can help you
to my knowledge i think his ablilities are doubled, but dont quote me on that
i appreciate your help thus far nonetheless, and its a weird and niche issue that im having anyways haha
What is the track called for the elder ruins?
is that the underwater one?
the soundtrack?
i believe its arctic oscillation
Thanks
np
this is a reference image of my resolution: 2560x1440 (first 2) and my friends resolution 1920x1080 (2nd 2) on different menus and things
what's the cooldown of after-image?
ty
feel free to ping me and tell me what i am failing to understand if its obvious
Are you on zoom 1 or 2
I can boot my pc and check but I don't recall it being that zoomed
both of us are on 1x
9 seconds
thanks
But some hive variants are absolutely disgusting for him on 1x zoom
Can't see the dropdowns onto TP kinda stuff
i just dont know if its just suppose to look like it does for us on 1440
it feels like an error but maybe i just dont understand resolution enough
I assume not
I'd guess it's applying 2x zoom to some menus still
which is super strange because i have no idea how to mitigate that
Maybe difference for menu 1x scaling means 1440 can have a higher multiplier than 1080 specifically there and it applies the highest multiplier to retain precision
looks like we might just get a fix in the future and us 1440s might just have to deal with how it looks right now, not the end of the world or anything, but i cant imagine its intentional for the game to look as zoomed in as it looks, i think your theory of the 2x zoom applying to the menu/ui, or the scaling reasoning both could be it, but once again, i am not claiming to knowing much about how ui has to be affected when in reference to resolution of a monitor
anyone know what ancient scepter does on drifter
i might need help with the game's technical side, cuz for me, the cutscene at the start of the game (right now i only experienced here, not at the final boss yet) is on low framerate, cant reach 60 fps, and the screen gets delayed, desyncs from the sound, anybody got a fix solution for it?
I had that too with the cutscene + game itself and just closed all other tabs excluding the game
Then it worked for me
this is probably not what you want to hear, but check the integrity of your game files, maybe the download bork'd, i play with 3 other people on pretty mediocre computers and none of us have that issue, also consider checking graphics drivers and see if they need updates
TL;DR, consider redownload(?)
I know what it does on robo xP
does robomando have trials?
no, ||except for judgement||
6 temp items instead of 4, I don’t know the effect for the alternate skill
alright, on it, ty
also try checking the wiki, just dropped recently and has alot of good info on it including what scepter does on everyone's abilities https://riskofrainreturns.wiki.gg
for scepter info i just go to the character i want to see's character page, and under their abilities theres a blurb about what scepter does
Found this hidden area at top right corner in Magma map. Anyone knows anything bout' it?
does anyone know what the 3 bosses are for the alt huntress primary? i assume acrid direseeker and providence but prov isnt exactly a "secret event boss" given being the final boss lol
I've heard Providence also works, guess you can go for acrid, direseeker and prov
correct
thats what i did
he's unique after all
ahh okay, thanks yall
What's direseeker?
the miniboss you kill to unlock Miner
also i found this yesterday evening as well and couldnt figure out anything, found one on forest as well but similarly found no real reason for it
Ahh gotcha
bottom right part of the magma map variant
I was looking for the prismatic skin on this map, thought this was it
haha thats what i was doing as well yesterday
no, i dont think it is unfortunately
same variant 2 times on the same run feelsbadman
i literally had 4 rotations of sky meadow before i got the ||prism|| on that level
I'm planning to buy RoR:R, but I have a question about multiplayer: If I create a lobby, ANY person or only my friends (on Steam) can join it?
I'd say you can make it private or open to anyone
You can make the lobby public or invite only
l,ke ror2, never tried it tho
they have private by default, but you can make it public
