ror2-game-questions

[vast solar]

Lmao thank you finally i can atleast get past his 1st phase in an instant

[lavish jacinth]

afaik there's no limit, but I think the game is usually pretty good at handling lots of projectiles

[gaunt bough]

Is it a known bug about Diablo strike sometimes not visually showing the bullet or dealing dmg

[lavish jacinth]

is probably more likely to cause a crash

[gaunt bough]

Or is it smth caused by smth else

[crisp timber]

what are you timing the second clip off of?

[steady stone]

projectiles just disappear since sots, like or diablo. I'd assume it's quite well known by now

something with a projectile limit, maybe, but

[gaunt bough]

Oh

Maybe a bug since there were quite alot with the release

[lavish jacinth]

if they were in multiplayer it could also be some weird desync jank

[steady stone]

oh, and it's only visual

the projectiles still hit

[mellow crystal]

Mostly just the music since that seems to be the easiest thing to time off of for p2 to p3 transition

[crisp timber]

wtf ok ty

[gaunt bough]

ANOTHER question from my friend, "do map variants count as different environments for captain's wanderlust, like shattered abodes and its disturbed impact variant, are they separate or considered same for wanderlust"

[lavish jacinth]

I think they're considered different as long as they have a different environment log

[gaunt bough]

Well like

[lavish jacinth]

so shattered/disturbed would count as different, but the two variants of titanic plains or distant roost wouldn't

[gaunt bough]

The end credits counts as a scene

[lavish jacinth]

...I think

[gaunt bough]

And it has no logbook

[lavish jacinth]

true

[fallen bridge]

stage variants are technically different scenes so yah i think they'd count??

[lavish jacinth]

it should definitely count the variants from SotS, the plains/roost ones are the only ones I'm not sure of. But now that I think about it it probably does count

[gaunt bough]

Yeah shattered abodes and its variant DO have different logbookd

Ok yeah bazaar wiki page helped

"Its possible to see both variants of a map like titanic plains through lunar seer as they are considered unique environments"

[opal notch]

I did it! Thanks for the help guys 👍 Top tier community ❤️

[lavish jacinth]

nice, glad we could help

[gaunt bough]

if you become heretic while trying to do a multi stage thing (for example wanderlust) does it make you not count as captain and make getting the achievement impossible?

[proven prairie]

I know I’m very late but these would also be good on captain, right?

[gaunt bough]

some yes

headstompers would be good as captain doesnt have a mobility skill

behemoth is good cuz it makes every pellet of the vulcan shotgun explode

so with the spread its a massive area coverage

[lavish jacinth]

yep

[gaunt bough]

spare drone parts is amazing since drones purchased by captain gain microbots

icbm is kinda useless since captain doesnt possess missles and tesla is good for every survivor

same for ceremonial dagger

[lavish jacinth]

ICBM is assuming you have a missile item

[proven prairie]

Alright thanks guys!

[gaunt bough]

really all of those items are good except mainly ICBM and sentient meat hook but thats just if you have command and want to pick dont make meat hook your first option

[lavish jacinth]

it's also effectively +60% to most of your damage, that's kinda the main benefit

[gaunt bough]

each item

[lavish jacinth]

meat hook is great tho

[proven prairie]

It’s just having multiple of them

[lavish jacinth]

yes

[gaunt bough]

for example 3 of them would be 60% more dmg if it stacks exponentially

or linear

[lavish jacinth]

linear means the increase is the same each time

[gaunt bough]

it adds onto itself

[lavish jacinth]

linear would be 20% on the first stack, 40% on the second, 60% on the third, and so on

hyperbolic is kinda complicated, it basically just means it decreases with each stack and can't ever reach 100%

[gaunt bough]

isnt hyperbolic percentage of percentage

[lavish jacinth]

not exactly but that's the idea

[gaunt bough]

like 15% dmg then 15% of that then 15% of that

[lavish jacinth]

https://riskofrain2.wiki.gg/wiki/Tougher_Times tougher times is a good example

[gaunt bough]

so like 15% then 3% then 1% then 0.4%

[lavish jacinth]

no

[crisp timber]

That’s exponential

[gaunt bough]

please print me a copy ill pay

we have the og minecraft tutorial books i want my irl ror2 item logs

yeah

[lavish jacinth]

hopefully the info in a ror2 book would be slightly more accurate than minecraft books lol

I mean it would basically just be the same format as the wiki, no? Each wiki page is a page (or pages) in the book, organized by topic

[copper sable]

id buy

[frozen vine]

alright, so ive been trying to get the false sons skills unlocked and im having trouble with the growth one with the lunar spikes.

i got to 42 spikes but it didnt give me the skill?

[fallen bridge]

you need 40 from growth ...

e.g. you need 44 total, w/o backup mags

[crisp timber]

yo hand is going to hurt

[copper sable]

how much would you sell them for

[proven prairie]

what does stacking hooks do?

[crisp timber]

+20% proc chance
+5 enemies

[proven prairie]

alright thx

[heavy carbon]

but how you will sell it?

[fallen bridge]

depends on what you have, but or will probably the best here

removes fall dmg, grants extra jump height, & allows you to do a large explosion that scales w/ fall height by holding the interact button

it doesn't sound very strong but
a. allows you to ignore most enemies since you'll be midair
b. great burst dmg
c. pillar skip if you're fighting mithrix

[copper sable]

if you made more how much

[proven prairie]

what would be the best equipment for captain, im running command and currently have soulbound, 1 fuel cell, 6 gestures and a royal capacitator

[still mural]

back up

[proven prairie]

alrighty

thx

[proven prairie]

is there a way to get 100% (or close to) uptime on that or no?

[lavish jacinth]

keep the capacitor but give the back-up to an equipment drone if you find one

[still mural]

Are you sure you want that?

[proven prairie]

now that i think about it, probably not

[lavish jacinth]

you already have enough CDR for full uptime lol, it takes 6 gestures

[lavish jacinth]

fr though, this would be the best option

the strike drones will still get microbots since you technically still own them, and you still get the capacitor (which is a way better equipment anyway)

[proven prairie]

what should i take?

im on drizzle cuz im trying to get clover

[slim spoke]

icbm

[proven prairie]

k thx

[proven prairie]

wait i dont have that unlocked
is it a dlc item?

[slim spoke]

yea

oh damn
lemme see the command prompt

i wanna see what you can pick

[proven prairie]

i could only make it a video lol

[slim spoke]

tesla, ceremonial dagger, dios (the bear), or uhhh shattering justice

[proven prairie]

alright thank you

[proven prairie]

what yellow items should i pick for captain/what yellow items should i prioritize?

[gaunt bough]

Molten porferator is good and little disciple

Shatterspleen is good too if you have high crit chance

[proven prairie]

alright, which one should i get first? maybe shatterspleen cuz i currently have 100% crit chance

[gaunt bough]

Yes

[proven prairie]

alright thx

[silver crest]

yall, im not schiz right theres an elite kind of modifier that makes the enemy godlike or something right

[still mural]

Empathy Cores

[slim spoke]

well, was.

[silver crest]

what

what happened to it

[slim spoke]

nerfed

and thank god for that

[silver crest]

I can’t find it on the wiki what’s it calledddd

[still mural]

Twisted?

[silver crest]

no it was like it would summon with lightning and the enemy would glow or something

[glacial knoll]

you're probably think of Starstorm 2 then

[gaunt bough]

Overloading?(?

[silver crest]

bruh

[gaunt bough]

Guys its overloading worm

Trust!

[silver crest]

its the darn

[gaunt bough]

Is it a long blue and black stick that makes weird sounds and erupts lightning

[silver crest]

Empyrean elite modifier from starstorm 2

[gaunt bough]

You could have lead with it being starstorm yknow

But yes empyrean elites are every elite type in one and stacks their stats to like 50000% more hp or smth

They're terrifying

Took me 4 Dios (thank god I had alot of regen scrap by luck) just to kill an empyrean imp

[round crane]

@steady stone school ended 🥳

[proven prairie]

is lost seer's lenses good on captain

[round crane]

probabbly yes since multiple projectiles

[lavish jacinth]

it works decently, but crit is usually better

[round crane]

@lavish jacinth who should i play next in simulacrum

[lavish jacinth]

mul-t

[round crane]

i alredy played him enough

200 syringes is enough

[lavish jacinth]

uhh mercenary then

[lavish jacinth]

lol

[round crane]

maybe there is someone else 🙏

[lavish jacinth]

ok, Acrid

[round crane]

bruh

i played him for like 5 mins but ok

now come and play with me lol

[stable beacon]

Which of the secondary abilities are worth using for false son? (Or should you stick with the first abilities)

[lavish jacinth]

all of the alts are worth using, iirc the alt special is pretty much always better than default, and the others are about equal or slightly better
(and honestly FS is just so strong in general that it hardly matters what loadout you use lol)

[proven prairie]

what void items should i get for captain?

[slim spoke]

preferrably shrimp

[proven prairie]

alright

[vast solar]

Any tips with fighting mithrix as captain?

[steady stone]

diablo can skip like every phase, but the normal tips of using the pillars and ramps apply

[hoary sedge]

are the big 3

avoid though

[idle sun]

Which items should I prioritize with acrid in a god run?

[hoary sedge]

I mean if you already have a good run item choice doesn't matter all that much

main thing for acrid specifically is flat damage multipliers like bc they affect poison damage (not sure if watch does or not but it's still good)

but anything that benefits proc chains is also good

[idle sun]

So the percentage health damage gets boosted?

[hoary sedge]

yep

[idle sun]

The thing is, I struggle with very high hp enemies. I do good with just spreading items

I meant to say single high hp enemies

So the less enemies there are, the less damage I do

[hoary sedge]

like as in your damage is reliant on on-kill effects?

bc if that's the problem you could just take

[idle sun]

What does that item do? I never ever took it lol

Holy I just googled it out, that items seems giga broken on acrid

[hoary sedge]

yeah it's really good on anyone but especially acrid bc you already want to be stacking wisp and gas

[kindred herald]

Nah needletick is good more often then it’s bad

Even on captain

You are not guaranteed to get bleed on cap

[hoary sedge]

well yeah the avoid needletick is conditional, it's obviously good if you find 0 bleed

the thing is that caps m1 is really good at reapplying bleed so you can get more damage out of it vs collapse if you do find it

[full osprey]

Guys help I'm on a difficulty where the enemy level doesn't increase, and the level spawned with no interactibles

But I need my final score, how tf do I kill myself

I have enough items that I can't die to enemies

[kindred herald]

Can u post a screenshot

You can always end the run at Obliteration on the third stage of a loop

[full osprey]

I can't post images here

For some reason

[livid wedge]

#roles get one and you can

[full osprey]

The level has zero interactibles

Not even a teleporter or the eggs

[daring cloak]

Probably caused by your stage mod

[hoary sedge]

modded moment

[livid wedge]

Probably mods, yeah

[full osprey]

Figured, I just installed a new one

How do I kill myself to get my score (friend challenge thing)

Dropping off the edge gets me to 1 but enemies can't ever deal 1 damage to me bc they die too quickly

[kindred herald]

Is there a teleporter

[full osprey]

No, nothing

[hoary sedge]

you could use the console to activate artifact of frailty

[livid wedge]

Can't die from fall damage, unfortunately

[hoary sedge]

so that you can die to fall damage

[full osprey]

What's the command

[hoary sedge]

oh wait that command is from a mod i forgor

nvm

[glacial knoll]

fall of the map and hit a sulfur pod

[hoary sedge]

they said it didnt spawn sulfur pods

[daring cloak]

Or wait until the enemies outscale you enough

[hoary sedge]

i assume thats what they meant by 'eggs'

[full osprey]

The difficulty is modded to not level enemies

[daring cloak]

-# oh..........

[full osprey]

What's the mod

I might have it, who knows

[daring cloak]

Debugtooklit

[full osprey]

Yea I have that one

[daring cloak]

toolkit*

Nobody took lids

[livid wedge]

I thought sulfur pools were poison and nonlethal

[full osprey]

Either way the pools didn't spawn

[glacial knoll]

you can just do true_kill

[full osprey]

Aha, I found the Aerolt menu!

The day is saved!

It has a tool to reload the stage and it worked!

[glass vector]

watch risk of rain videos when they play opening a box when item drops they choise what they want
i cant do that may u explain how i do that

[fallen bridge]

that is something called "artifact of command". artifacts are unlockable rules that you can apply to runs that change how things work

[vast solar]

Genuine opinion mercenary or captain?

[daring cloak]

Depends on preference

[vast solar]

Mmmmm

i just got mercenary is there any abilities i should focus on getting?

[mental slate]

Want happens if you give captain another charge of his special with the one void item?

[glacial knoll]

extra beacon, only the first slot

Limit of 2 out for some reason

Like all charge+ items it doesn't come charged so it's only working the next stage

[mental slate]

I see

[heavy carbon]

the doppelganger can heal himself alone?

i literally got kill tryin to beat him on monsoon

he was immortal

[daring cloak]

The doppelganger gets all your items

[heavy carbon]

i wasn't using any type of healing item

[daring cloak]

Oh huh

Maybe there were mending elites

[heavy carbon]

Doppelganger + Mythrix = immortal

[fallen bridge]

false son umbra maybe

[agile crystal]

but it refused...

[lavish jacinth]

they're all worth getting, although the alt special is notoriously hard to unlock

#prismatic-trials practically exists just to help people get that achievement lol

[sand shell]

is boomerang worth it on railgunner? in in the bizzare with 5 green scrap and dont know if i should get it

[fallen bridge]

not really to be honest

i'd save the scrap for a good moon soup or green printer

[chrome echo]

Are the prismatic trials synced on console and computer?

[daring cloak]

Yes

[prisma creek]

can I give trophy hunter tricorn to an equipment drone? Will it use it correctly?

[livid wedge]

Yes, but it's a little janky

[still mural]

How fond are you of the word ahoy?

[nova sun]

am i misunderstanding the unlock for the lunar stakes since this is like my third attempt and im pretty sure i have 40 lunar spikes?? spoiler for the survivor im playing

[livid wedge]

40 extra spikes, ones specifically from growth

So actually need 44

I really wish they'd rework that challenge text

[nova sun]

ah i see, thank you!

[frank sparrow]

how do i build acrid? since poison dont stack

[lavish jacinth]

It still gets affected by multipliers like delicate watch so go for those, and proc items and stuff are still good as always

[frank sparrow]

ok cool

[hoary sedge]

flat damage multipliers to boost poison damage like and on-kill damage to wipe out enemies that poison chips down like

[lavish jacinth]

Acrid isn't super dependent on items since poison does %health damage

[frank sparrow]

ok cool thanks!

[cursive hound]

Does killing 8 enemies at once shoot the resonance disc twice?

[rapid current]

200 void bears

[heavy carbon]

stacking void bears what changes

[lavish jacinth]

shorter cooldown

it caps at 65 with a 1-frame cooldown though

and mithrix also can't have them

[heavy carbon]

what hell

[spiral bridge]

guys when do i get the golden eclipse badge thing?

[crisp timber]

When you clear that eclipse level for all survivors

[spiral bridge]

ohh...

and here i rushed all eclipse levels for commando

so basically i didn't receive any reward for thaat?

[crisp timber]

You got the satisfaction of beating e8 :)

[spiral bridge]

hhaahhaha trueee

[gaunt bough]

do lunar spikes from backup mags count towards my atck rate and stuff bonuses or only frm growth

[fresh umbra]

It lights up the e8 icon

Before completing e8 it wouldn’t have been lit up

[spiral bridge]

but it's not golden

[fresh umbra]

yeah…

[lavish jacinth]

they do count

[gaunt bough]

Does lunar ruin go away or is it a permanent debuff like scorpion

[crisp timber]

It’s like bleed. It goes away if not reapplied after a bit

[lavish jacinth]

^^^ it lasts 5 seconds but is refreshed with every stack

[kindred herald]

They do not count for achievement

[heavy carbon]

so i choosed the wrong item

i can change it later?

[lavish jacinth]

yeah

[lavish jacinth]

I know, they were asking if it counts towards lunar tampering

[kindred herald]

ah if Inc

[normal marsh]

What on False Son scales with attack speed?

Other than literal M1 swings obv

[fallen bridge]

slam charge, spike throwing speed, stake throwing speed, lotf tick rate*, & i think(??) it makes the laser burst animation faster

[analog brook]

LotF tick rate with the asterisk kek

[lavish jacinth]

for future reference, attack speed works by speeding up your survivor's attack animations, so pretty much any attack that comes directly from your survivor will be faster in some way (including the tickrate of beam-type even though their animations aren't affected).
But attacks that are separated in some way like arrow rain, captain's airstrikes, loader's pylon etc. won't be affected aside from the initial casting animation if it has one

[lavish jacinth]

and yeah, iirc LotF specifically is bugged and doesn't really scale correctly I think, unless that was fixed

[daring cloak]

I dont think it was

[waxen garden]

is there an easy to access list of all the logbooks and stuff to manually edit my save?

the original steam guide is outdated

[lavish jacinth]

you should be able to just use the realercheatunlocks mod for that

[woven reef]

Does lunar ruin count for death mark?

[daring cloak]

Yes
Twice actually

[vast solar]

I cannot believe i still messed up on third phase

Any tips on what i can do to deal with third phase of false son?

[timber wolf]

HOW DO I GET THAT ALTERNATE M2 ON BANDIT WHATTTTT 😭

[timber wolf]

its pretty easy, just have some distance and shoot, when he starts taking your abilities quickly run to the nearest shrine to get them back, when he uses the laser dont attack him, try to run and stay behind objects

[vast solar]

I tried but that stupid “golden boy” sends spikes for me TvT

[timber wolf]

what? which golden boy?

[vast solar]

Aurelionite mb shouldve been more specific

like whenever i try to run the guy sends out another laser or a golden spike from below

[timber wolf]

bruh golden spikes are easy to dodge

just dont stand in one place

and the laser as i said

try to hide from it

[vast solar]

Alr

[timber wolf]

i didnt really have problems

he is the easiest of the three thats fs

even tho i dont have any rights to talk because i beat him on the most broken character lol

and not even monsoon

[vast solar]

Dw im not blaming you im guessing your talking about seeker right?

[timber wolf]

indeed

[vast solar]

Yeah thats fair

[timber wolf]

imo its the most broken

ppl say false son is better but ig i just dont know how to play him lol

[vast solar]

the thing is i dont wanna go with seeker is just that i dont really like her abilities much conpared to captains and even so using her pisses me off in a way with the whole extra life thing

no offence to u in anyway ofc

[woven reef]

how good is this?

[daring cloak]

Pretty decent but its really rare so take it anyways

[woven reef]

alright

[lavish jacinth]

Just backstab alloy worship unit a bunch

Or aurelionite, but awu is a bit easier

Getting 20 stacks is easy, hemorrhage lasts 15s and resets with new stacks like bleed, so all you need is a tanky boss that can survive the damage for long enough

Backup mags and cooldown reduction will help too ofc

[rapid current]

Do yall have good survivors and builds to do wacky stuff ( i only have void dlc )

[fallen bridge]

is very silly

even sillier w/ as well

[trim lynx]

⚙️ is silly

[lavish jacinth]

If you're gonna do the polyp build with captain, go all in and take Diablo + , kill your own polyps to get ghost polyps

[rapid current]

What characther

[trim lynx]

any really

[lavish jacinth]

Proc chain builds work on anyone

[rapid current]

Also did void fiend get nerfed

[trim lynx]

nop

[kindred herald]

What do you mean by silly

[trim lynx]

blows everything up

if they die they can be repaired

they are the ones you took in

[rapid current]

What would be the best survivor if u have 20 clovers ( or more )

[fallen bridge]

commando is very consistent

[lavish jacinth]

I'd probably say chef just for the bugged 2.25 proc coeff on boosted dice but you don't have sots

But apart from that yeah, I guess commando but anyone really

Clover is pretty universal

[kindred herald]

double nailgun mult

[lavish jacinth]

Or double saw if you just want procs and don't care about practicality

Get for range and even more procs

[lavish jacinth]

...then again with 20 clovers most procs are damn near guaranteed anyway so I guess proc coeff almost doesn't matter lol

[rapid current]

What about bandit

[trim lynx]

?

[rapid current]

He shoots 4 at a time

[trim lynx]

hed be good ya

[kindred herald]

double nailgun mul t is 24 projectiles a second

[trim lynx]

artificer would be good

[rapid current]

What is the cap of projectiles

I think most of the charcthers have one except chef artificer and bandit

[nimble cove]

just got ror2 on my computer, i press single player and it loads the title screen again, does anyone know how to fix this?

[rapid current]

Do u have an video

[kindred herald]

what

[nimble cove]

i can take one rq

[nimble cove]

i can’t send it

it’s literally just i click the button, fade to black, fade back to title screen

[rapid current]

Try dms

[wild stump]

any tips for the false son boss?
it keeps 1-2 shotting me whenever i reach it

[fallen bridge]

prioritize mobility, phase 1 is ruthless & you will die w/o it (dash/slam mainly)
if he raises his right hand he's about to throw his spike shotgun which can & will instakill if you are near it ...
pillars are very useful throughout the fight, since you can block his dash & spikes in phase 1 & take cover from the laser in phase 2/3
make sure to always be near a geode when phase 3 starts, but also don't be afraid to use them before then
if you bring aurelionite, you can run to the back of the arena before phase 3 starts (near the large statue) & spawn her in a reasonably harmless spot

[noble shale]

What do the beetle queens flying Maggot things do

[fallen bridge]

they apply a debuff that just slightly (-5%) reduces some stats

[noble shale]

I somehow never noticed that

[fallen bridge]

unless you have a lot of the debuff it's fairly inconsequential

[minor nimbus]

can someone give me a somewhat detailed explanation on how to properly unlock false son? just bought the dlc and i can't figure out in my head how i'm supposed to get the halcyon seed and THEN go beat him. ya feel me

[mellow crystal]

beating auri spawns a green portal if you're on stage 1-3

[minor nimbus]

oh lit

[hoary sedge]

you can also dream for gilded coast in the bazaar

[minor nimbus]

thank you i figured there was something obvious i was missing/forgetting lol

[hoary sedge]

and if a halcyon shrine spawns on stage 4 or 5, or on any of the the colossus path stages, it summons a gold portal instead of a green

[minor nimbus]

oh cool, good to know thanks. i am very painfully trying to 100% the game. or at least achievements. 63% of the way there 😅😅

[prisma creek]

I went to the blue portal while in stage 3 storm path. when I leave, will I continue on storm path?

[crisp timber]

You’ll need to dream back into the path

[prisma creek]

there is a dream to the aurelionite stage, and the other one I don't recognize

it has a disc of some sort, maybe its the stage that hass the vulture robot optional boss I think?

wish I could send a print, I want to remain in storm path

[steady stone]

any #roles for perms

[steady stone]

left gold, right siren's

you know how there's like... hold on

it's like this part

[prisma creek]

yea that was what I was thinking

the vulture robot boss stage, I don't remember stage names yet lol

[crisp timber]

Yeah unfortunately you’re off the path

[prisma creek]

F

[steady stone]

the path doesn't close until you beat false son in that run, at least

so you can always go later

[lavish jacinth]

Turn off crossplay, assuming you're on steam. Should be on the first page of settings

[lavish jacinth]

The bazaar also has 3 hidden geodes that you can break to spawn a guaranteed green portal, if you're on a valid stage and haven't visited the colossus stages yet on that run

[minor nimbus]

woah thats super neat i didn't know that, thanks

[upper trellis]

is anyone sure how in the hell my friend got revived? https://medal.tv/games/ror-2/clips/kAlrxx0XM4Jp4NC1m?invite=cr-MSxvMzksMjQ0OTA5Nzk5

[kindred herald]

Do you have any mods

[upper trellis]

Only minor mods like qol and some tweak mods

none that influence reviving or anything

[kindred herald]

what’s ur modlist

[upper trellis]

The only thing that has to do with reviving is shrine of dio

which is a shrine you have to use

shrines dont spawn in prime meridian

[steady stone]

this assumes the mod works correctly

which i would guess it just isn't

[pallid mountain]

and now, I will attempt the most annoying achievement in this game!

WHY IS IT JUST GOLEMS

oh my fucking god a kin event triggered

this game hates me

[lofty dagger]

are lemurian items shared between players in multiplayer? like if i give a lemurian a tougher times and my friend gives them an opal does mine get an opal

[lofty dagger]

found answer on wiki

[dull monolith]

Sounds like a wifi issue

That always happens to me when I try to run the game when my wifi is super slow

[lavish jacinth]

It's a known bug with crossplay, turning it off should fix it (among other issues)

If it's off then your internet connection shouldn't matter at all

[pallid mountain]

I'm not even gonna pretend I know what happened here

I have never died to an overloading worm before...

[lavish jacinth]

You touched the worm

[pallid mountain]

yeah for barely even a second

[lavish jacinth]

That's all it takes lol

Overloading worms have the highest damage stat in the game

[pallid mountain]

mmm

blue noodle

[high forum]

It's for multiplayer purposes, it's essentially a voting system. Highlighted is a vote "for" using the DLC, the X is a vote "against" using the DLC.

[nimble cove]

what’s a fun lunar to grab for bandit

[steady stone]

the most nororious might be Desperado with

and then scrap your chances for pure damage

no cooldown means you can just use it as your primary and then endlessly stack the damage on it

[fallen bridge]

• you can spam shiv/dagger

[onyx plume]

eclipse 5 tips in terms of itemization?

is it the same when it comes to healing items

surely not

[fallen bridge]

nothing is really different, you should get along fine w/ 2-3 slugs &/or wungus since they are extremely consistent
just make sure you're focused on dodging ... much better to learn now than try & facetank everything when you inevitably get to e8 ...

[crisp timber]

Medkit is pretty bad now

[fallen bridge]

it's not super great even in monsoon

[onyx plume]

why is cautious slug better than other healing items in eclipse

[onyx plume]

yeah medkit was auto scrap for me even before monsoon 💀

[fallen bridge]

it is extremely consistent, as multiple of eclipse's modifiers boil down to punishing you heavily for being hit, so you should be focusing on not taking dmg anyways

same w/ wungus, as you'll be sprinting most of the time

[onyx plume]

but its healing is still halved right?

[fallen bridge]

yah

[onyx plume]

does having 2x of cautious slug has any significance?

i keep seeing it on eclipse memes

[fallen bridge]

yes, doubles its effect

[peak jacinth]

no, slug isn’t healing

it’s regen

[fallen bridge]

slug stacks proportionally, 1 slug is +3hp/sec (& +0.6hp/sec per level), 2 slugs is +6hp/sec(& +1.2hp/sec per level)

[peak jacinth]

so it just increases the regen by a flat amount

[fallen bridge]

regen is also halved

[peak jacinth]

oh is it?

[fallen bridge]

yah

[peak jacinth]

zamn

[fallen bridge]

opposite of rejuv rack, which also amplifies regen

[peak jacinth]

i also didn’t know rejuv rack did that

[onyx plume]

is wungus regen too?

or heal? the wiki says "Heals for 2% ..." but it also says "The item grants the Weeping Fungus Regeneration buff"

oh nvm

they both halved

[fallen bridge]

wungus is healing, just rapid ticks

[crisp timber]

All form of healing is cut in half, whether it be innate regen, item regen, or item healing

[onyx plume]

um i just used royal capacitator and my coop just got revived?

i do have bottled chaos but i saw radar effect getting triggered

the only guess i have is theres a revival active on second dlc (but i don't own the dlc yet)

[hasty tinsel]

If the host has the dlc then it should be able to pull from that, yeah.

[onyx plume]

none of us do

[hasty tinsel]

Some sort of bug then, I imagine.

[fallen bridge]

yah, seed of life is is bottled chaos pool for some reason, but if none of you have sots then probably a bug?

[indigo glacier]

If you had 2 or more Bottled Chaos, it might be possible that Seed of Life (revive equipment) could have triggered, even if you didn't have SOTS.

That did happen at some point back when the DLC was released, but I don't know if they fixed that.

Just skimming changelogs maybe not.

[dry cloak]

How does will of wisp and gasoline stack?

[agile crystal]

well uh

[dry cloak]

Is it like a bigger radius?

[agile crystal]

gasoline gives a bigger radius alone, wisp just insures itll do damage in a large radius

they dont build off eachother directly

[dry cloak]

Ya i knew that

[indigo glacier]

Individually, yes more items of each, radius increases, for will o' the wisp, it increases damage with stacks, and gasoline increases burn damage with stacks

[dry cloak]

And radius too?

[indigo glacier]

yep

[dry cloak]

Ok thx

[fallen bridge]

gas is kinda weird, it scales radius (like willowisp) but also makes the burn last longer ... same dps, higher overall dmg

[dry cloak]

Desperado with will of wisps and gasoline goes so hard

[maiden furnace]

WillOWisps description is so strange. It specifically says a lava pillar when you inspect it, but the quick mouseover description just says they explode.

Is it a pillar shape? Yeah. But a lava pillar? It’s just an explosion.

[fallen bridge]

logbook descriptions lie quite a lot

[indigo glacier]

believe me, RoRR item and skill descriptions are even worse with lying (just look at skill descriptions on the wiki, there are quite a few problems)

[nimble cove]

whats the item that increases your fouth slot charges? playing engineer and wanna get some more turrets

[kindred herald]

Lysate cell

[lavish jacinth]

You can only get one extra turret though

More stacks of the item give the skill more charges but don't increase the turret cap

[jade vortex]

Can fireworks proc atg

[fallen bridge]

yah, but they have a 0.2 proc coefficient ...

[jade vortex]

I have 102 of them and I have 5 pocket missile things

So there’s billions of fire works

[fallen bridge]

i think that is plenty

[steady stone]

if you get a remote caff, yeah your run should be sealed

[mellow root]

guys time sensitive question how do i enable chat in pc

[steady stone]

like just... to type in chat? that should be Enter

if youre really desperate iirc there's a console command for "Say _"

[mellow root]

no like how do i open up the chat window

oh thats enter thank you

[icy path]

Does frenzy speed up cooldowns on artificer? Or does only skill cooldown lower her downtime, I feel that I get lower cooldowns when I get frenzy, am I crazy?

[steady stone]

attack speed affects her m1

[daring cloak]

Attack speed lowers the cooldown of her primary

[icy path]

Since when???!

I just looked it up, only since Sots.

[timber wolf]

does attack speed increase the speed of seeker's m2 balls?

[wet bison]

dont think so

[lavish jacinth]

no

[timber wolf]

sad sad

[lavish jacinth]

it's not like seeker needs to be any stronger tbf lol

[timber wolf]

just imagine gearbox buff the most broken character in the next update lmfao 😭

[lavish jacinth]

wouldn't be the first time

[mellow crystal]

sojourn buff moment

[lavish jacinth]

I think phase 3 buffed literally everything about her except unseen hand, the only part of her kit that maybe needed it lmao

[tender temple]

gearbox please buff mobile turrets and my life is yours

[woven reef]

how rare is it for a scavanger to spawn pre loop?

[daring cloak]

They cant spawn pre loop except for on sundered grove

[woven reef]

ah makes sense

[round crane]

im so tired

thats why i want to play ror2

@mellow crystal or @steady stone ?

[onyx plume]

from the seekers of the storm dlc, which are proc and which are burst?

[lavish jacinth]

Chef leans more towards procs but seeker and false son can kinda do both

[onyx plume]

i see...

i heard they got buffs in the recent rework

[vast solar]

What are best false son abilities?

[quasi topaz]

As long as you use alt special you can do whatever with the others

All the abilities are good on him except lotf

[vast solar]

Thanks im just contemplating wether to use captain or false son for my first monsoon run lmao

[marble osprey]

Personally I'd recommend the spikes and the teleport for the other two slots but the others are fine too

[fallen bridge]

yah lotf is kinda false son's only bad skill, low procs & benefits very little from attack speed

[onyx plume]

does false son scale better with ats?

it seems like m1 is affected but does it really matter in the long run tho

[fallen bridge]

attack speed helps but isn't super important

[stone orchid]

Why are some of the chest icons super big ??

[minor nimbus]

theyve always showed up for me like that. ive noticed the bigger chest icons show up for regular chests and other stuff. and then the smaller ones are like. printers

[stone orchid]

Huh

[lavish jacinth]

They changed the icon recently and they kinda goofed

[stone orchid]

Oh 😭 That makes sense

[lavish jacinth]

Before sots all chests used the smaller icon that multishops and printers use

[glacial knoll]

After Devotion Chests that didnt work with Delsuion used the bag icon, they fixed this in the latest patch but used the wrong chest icon

[onyx plume]

did false son's charged m1 attack get nerfed?

i feel like i should not even be playing around his charged attack anymore

and just play around m2 especially late game

[lavish jacinth]

It was nerfed but it's still really good

[onyx plume]

i see proc coef reduced to 1

which seems like a big deal 😭

[lavish jacinth]

If you use the charged slam in the air and fall for more than 0.5s it's a 1.5 proc coeff and the radius scales with the height of the slam

Also 1.0 is still good lmao

[onyx plume]

runic lens was crazy good on him

ig its still good

[lavish jacinth]

It's crazy good in general

[onyx plume]

but 3.0 days are joever

[lavish jacinth]

The 3.0 slam was completely busted anyway, the nerf was fair

[onyx plume]

indeed

also growth doesn't have a cap right

[lavish jacinth]

There's no cap, but it takes more and more hp for it to make a difference

The wiki has a chart for it https://riskofrain2.wiki.gg/wiki/False_Son

[onyx plume]

@lavish jacinth do you have like an advice on when to cashout prayer beads

[lavish jacinth]

Usually when you have around 20 stacks of the buff

[glacial knoll]

isn't it like a 1500% damage on basically no cooldown

[lavish jacinth]

Yep

[lavish jacinth]

That gives around 3-4 levels worth of stats, and gaining more stacks past that point is really slow, a lot like player levels

Prayer beads basically acts like a second xp bar

[onyx plume]

tyty

[mellow crystal]

it was nerfed to 1000% iirc

which actually makes laser burst do more damage than it now since it's 1250% i think?

[lavish jacinth]

Oh yeah, it was

[coral flint]

Grabbed command artifact today. What items should i go for on Captain?

[minor nimbus]

i like to get max crit and shatterspleen personally

loop until i feel like stopping lol

captain is super fun although i dont really know whats good on him i havent looked into it

[hoary sedge]

pretty much anything can work on him tbh, he likes crit and bleed and attack speed, plus the usual good proc candidates

bands also work really nicely with orbital probes, kinda overkill with diablo strike but still good for proc chain stuff

[grim pike]

Captain is good with things that proc because each bullet of his shotgun has an own proc coefficient

Something like that

[mellow crystal]

it's moreso that each bullet's proc coeff is really high for how many pellets there are

bandit fires 5 pellets with a 0.5 proc co while cap fires 8 with a 0.75 proc co

with that 8x0.75 proc coeff per shot that's a 46% chance to trigger 1 tritip or atg at least one time

[coral flint]

epic ty

is there a reason to run diablo over orbital or is it personal preference

[daring cloak]

Its mostly up to preference

Diablo is.... weird

Its a very good skill but hard to use and has a lot of unconventional usecases

[fallen bridge]

diablo's dps is technically higher & you can also skip bosses, though it's much harder to use in non-scripted encounters like normal stages

[daring cloak]

It does have some fairly unique synergies though

Like with bandoliers

[round crane]

theres nothing to do bruh

[hoary sedge]

It's also mainly a playstyle difference, I like probes bc they're faster and feel more like a fluid part of the kit instead of running around kiting enemies or sitting in a shock beacon for 20 seconds

[west turtle]

what is the optimal crowbar/focus crystal split for the merc i have 22 put into it with 3d printers

i have no idea how the percentages might add up

[crisp timber]

Really rough math I have puts it at 13 crowbars 9 focus crystals

[pearl belfry]

so im on void fields and the environment log just straight up isnt there even though 5 min havent passed

[peak jacinth]

this math is correct

because you’re likely not going to one shot enemies you might want to roughly make it equal though, since crystal will be active a lot more than crowbar

[coral flint]

when it comes to legendaries which are best for Captain

[crisp timber]

The good ones (tm)

Best is probably either clover, behemoth, hst, sonorous

But basically all generically good proc and utility reds are good

[coral flint]

epic

[sudden wave]

Which is better rail gunner or void fiend?

[daring cloak]

Whichever one you play better as

[fallen bridge]

(also spare drone parts!!)

[daring cloak]

Specifically with diablo brainstalks is also pretty decent

[oak granite]

is there any way to allow movement while holding tab open like before the seekers dlc came out?

i check item stats sometimes with lookingglass while moving during runs and occasionally get stopped recently after the dlcs release

[pallid mountain]

is it worth it

actually I just realized that's all of my greens

nvm

[steady stone]

dios generally isnt worth it from soup anyway because of the mentality where like, "if i had those 5 damage items i might not have died at all"

[haughty imp]

Which false son laser is better for damage cycles?

[vast solar]

I just did my 3rd monsoon run and i just wanted to ask how do we unlock eclipse 8?

[foggy vessel]

you unlock eclipse 8 from doing all of the preceding eclipe levels (1-7) in the alternate game modes section

[vast solar]

Ohhhh

is there a way of knowing when I'll get Rallypoint delta as the stage 3 for the timed chest, or do I just have to keep trying until I get it randomly?

[proven prairie]

If I have friends with the other 2 dlcs, which one should I get? Or should I wait for the new one to come out (ps. I sometimes do solo runs)

[high forum]

SotV

Void items add more depth to the item pool than the rest of the items in SotS, IMO

[proven prairie]

Alright thx

[cobalt quiver]

can someone confirm treeborn colony/golden dieback actually spawns radio scanner? or do they have an environmental log lying somewhere?
I went through the stage like 30 times already with command and sacifice on to maximize spawn chance and have found nothing im losing my mind

[sinful owl]

I just defeated aurelionite. the two portals spawned. which do I take? green or gold?

[fallen bridge]

green sends you onto the path of the colossus, which leads you to fight false son
gold sends you back to the normal stage path

[sinful owl]

thank you

[crisp timber]

tranquility > hand because free revive is nuts
utility can be either. both are very good

[onyx plume]

what about her special?

[crisp timber]

er wait it's not called tranquility
meditate > palm

[onyx plume]

im slightly bit confused. ins't there 3 alt abilities?

[crisp timber]

oh and for the alt fire, balls is generally considered better, but fist is still strong

[onyx plume]

ah okok

[jagged lava]

So does this thing replace my M1, Shift, or R skill? I kinda need at least the shift and R skills in order to not die instantly, so...

Got no description on it so yeah.

[crisp timber]

it's an equipment

[jagged lava]

I'll take that as a "No it won't mess with your skill kit" okay

[crisp timber]

yeah it won't

[onyx plume]

i have over 40 stacks of m2 at once rn as false son

i don't see any unlock message for alt m2 tho

[onyx plume]

ty ❤️

[proven prairie]

would ruin be good on loader?

[onyx plume]

no

loader can't stack well

you are talking about essence of heresy right

[proven prairie]

ye

[onyx plume]

dealing damage adds a stack of ruin

but loader ain't gonna stack that much ruin

[proven prairie]

what lunar items should i go for then?

[onyx plume]

imo not much lunar items are applicable on him. much up to preference

other good items like beads for pearl

[proven prairie]

k thx

[onyx plume]

or tonic + gesture

but very situational

[proven prairie]

alrighty

[onyx plume]

vision of heresy replaces his m1 with ranged weapon

and transendence as he can escape from combat pretty easily

but these are preference

i don't bother waste lunar coins on loader cuz shes OP anyways even without any lunar items

[jagged lava]

Okay, asking just because I made it to that phase in the fight...

||In the part where False Son takes away every skill you have, are you supposed to goad him into smashing the crystals that spawn around the arena when he does that or do they just break whenever the beam tries to kill you like it's the intro for Smash Ultimate's story mode?||

and also is that beam supposed to be an instant kill during that phase.

[fallen bridge]

a. nop
b. yah, it is supposed to force you into cover behind the solid pillars ... you can take a few ticks but it is very dangerous

(the crystals can only be broken by non-allies but they dmg you & inflict lunar ruin upon explosion)

[jagged lava]

Guess I got unlucky getting him in a run where I was playing a character with a pretty slow sprint then

[agile crystal]

oh yea if you dont got the speed you're cooked

he has mithrixs m1 on crack

[jagged lava]

And here I was trying to abuse the "Heal by doing damage" item to get by the first two phases lol

[kindred herald]

fun fact; loader is a woman

[steady stone]

loader is a slow and powerful bruiser

[kindred herald]

you get your skills back by interacting with one of the golden pillars around the arena

[agile crystal]

you're gonna need an ungodly amount of attack speed to make leeching seed work lmao

[agile crystal]

i kinda wish they like have some sort of indicator for this ngl

especially for when you're being chased by a hunk of a man

[lavish jacinth]

Tbf they do cleanse other debuffs so if you're paying attention you could probably make the assumption that they cleanse the skill steal too, since it's also a debuff. Plus it's basically the only thing you can do at that point

[lavish jacinth]

Also jsyk, every character has the same base move speed and sprint speed (except heretic)

[fallen bridge]

(though mul-t & arti have slower accelerations, so they could be perceived as slower, & false son gains some extra speed through his passive)

[jagged lava]

Nah, I just had stupid amounts of On-Hit effects going around lol

Also I had a run where I made it to him again, only I just got killed instantly due to jank and one of the Heresy items cutting off a pretty important part of my kit.

[mellow crystal]

geodes clear ability steal

[jagged lava]

The run I was talking about, I ended up using all but one of the geodes, thinking they just give a bunch of HP at once

Well, the run I had in the post you're replying to anyway

[mellow crystal]

The geodes do regenerate regularly so you should be fine to use them in p1 and p2 if you're in a pinch

[jagged lava]

And the last run I had where I made it to him again, I somehow revived outside of the arena and had to wait for everything to get back into position in order to jump my way back up lol

[jagged lava]

Finally beat the guy. Ended up jumping him like it's JJK tho

[jagged lava]

Thanks for that tip about the Geodes btw

Now I wonder what all this about "Being reborn" is about...

Huh, that counts as "obliterate" when it comes to Mastery huh?

Oh right, yeah I did the winning run on Monsoon lol

Okay, so question about the rebirth Artifact, is the item it gives me a one-time thing and if I win or fail the run I have to go all the way back to Prime Meridian to set another, or. is it just "Hey, you get to start the run with this item until you go and change it"

[glacial knoll]

One time, if nothing is stored a random white is given

[jagged lava]

Okay, so I should probably save what I apparently have in it's slot for someone who could definitely make use of it then.

For context, I put the one that has every attack you land cause an explosion in it's slot. Swore I put the boomerang one in tho.

[round crane]

THIS IS REAL?!

BRO THATS 6.0 PROC COEFFICIENT

[proven prairie]

what lunars and items in general are good on MUL-T?

[proven prairie]

only if you hit all the pellets

if ur going for nailgun then def attack speed and proc items

[proven prairie]

chat do i get the tonic?

[round crane]

YESS

[analog brook]

Does the distance/ momentum from rex's utility scale with attack speed? And does it scale with movement speed (I think so but I wanna make sure)
And finally, does the damaging utility send you further?

[tender temple]

youre saying that as if its difficult

[proven prairie]

whats a quick way to get mul-t's powermode?

[slim spoke]

how do i get it again?

[trim lynx]

void fields stage 7 or later iirc

[daring cloak]

I'd assume the momentum of the utility is less potent with more movement speed because you'd have more friction to slow you back down

[onyx plume]

Any tips on unlocking meridian will ability of false son?

[quasi topaz]

command and good timing

[glacial knoll]

No, yes, no

kinda on the movement

Your increased movement speed means you also come to a stop quicker, but any upwards momentum doesnt get lowered

[round scarab]

there is cross platform multiplayer ?

[glacial knoll]

never will be

[fierce bluff]

How does the item rng in chests work, is it like with enemies(credits for each stage) or is it completely random(you can get 10 reds or 0 reds per run)?

[mellow crystal]

the placements and types of chests are determined by stage credits but the items they give you are rng

and every chest has its own chance for each rarity

these aren't the real numbers since i don't have them memorized but just as an example, a small chest would be 70% for a white, 25% for a green, 5% for a red
and a large would be 80% for a green, 20% for a red

[fierce bluff]

Wow

[lavish jacinth]

Small chests are 79% white, 20% green, 1% red

[glacial knoll]

Reds are really rare and so you can definitely go a whole run with only the guaranteed red

You get like 60 to 75 items tops in a stage 5 run, if you really really full loot which one can

[tender temple]

add more guaranteed reds

it doesnt have to be "free" i would even take more red printers or soups

just more red representation in the game rather than seeing one maybe once per run and if im lucky a couple more

red scrap virtually useless outside of white soup

[swift jolt]

Guys how possibly strong can you get on stage 5? And you dont care whether if it's cringe or not

[tender temple]

depends on what you get

and what character youre playing

[swift jolt]

Like

[tender temple]

if youre lucky you can snap the game in half by stage 5 already

[swift jolt]

True

[glacial knoll]

Command 5 regen scrap turn all equipment into guns for yellows like

[mellow crystal]

with or without command
with command it'd be very easy to get a proc chain build that annihilates everything by stage 5 and without command you can still get lucky with printers scrappers and/or chest drops

[glacial knoll]

it's absurd how strong command is if you just use items well

instead of starting off stacking 10 lens

[swift jolt]

What's a good reliable strat to always get stronger? Me imo i always go to lunar and get spinel tonic

[swift jolt]

What do you think is like an always must get item

[onyx plume]

Does mithrix have same level as me?

I was trying the solitude lvling thing and mitrhix was hitting hard

[mellow crystal]

depends on survivor really but every character can get good benefit from runic lens, sonorous whispers, /, and

[mellow crystal]

it's based on the enemy ambient level so whatever's in the top-right

but all final bosses do also have special scaling that makes them tougher than regular enemies

[swift jolt]

Ty!! I dont exactly understand the h3adst and little disciplr part, mind explaining?

[lavish jacinth]

Headstompers gives you an aoe slam that can do up to 10,000% damage in a 100m radius, depending on the height of the slam

[mellow crystal]

is fall damage negation and higher jump height which are always convenient, the latter for dodging especially, and if you have a way to get up high then it can become a nuke
little disciple is basically just free damage as long as you sprint regularly (which you will be)

oh right i forgot to mention is also great on most survivors since verticality is good for dodging

[lavish jacinth]

disciple is just pretty nice to have in general, it's not the strongest item but passive damage while sprinting is useful

[onyx plume]

Does any of mithrix abilities have %health dmg?

[lavish jacinth]

Also theoretically there's no real limit to this if you just farm items with sacrifice

[mellow crystal]

no p sure

[onyx plume]

I had like 17k health and artifact of swarm caused 2 mithrix to spawn and getting hit by both spinnies brought me down to 1 hp

I was at 6 stage commencement too

[mellow crystal]

i wanna say there's no % dmg from enemies in ror2 but i feel like i've heard somewhere that one specific enemy does have it

or wait no i'm thinking of providence rorr

[glacial knoll]

Prime Meridian lightning iirc

[lavish jacinth]

I don't think any enemy in ror2 does %health damage, only environmental stuff like void fog

[lavish jacinth]

Spinny just does a lot of damage

[swift jolt]

That's interesting cus like you need quite a bit of setup for that, does it also negate fall damage to the void?

[glacial knoll]

stage 6 spinny can do up to like 2700 damage

if you just messed up or overlapped that's an easy death

[lavish jacinth]

And it applies cripple which reduces armor, so subsequent hits would do more

[mellow crystal]

it does since off-map fall damage in ror2 technically doesn't exist funnily enough
getting sent off the map only teleports you onto the ground, and the fall damage is from you hitting the ground itself instead of the teleport trigger

[lavish jacinth]

The only setup you really need is to allow you to trimp with it

Or none at all if your survivor naturally has good vertical mobility

[mellow crystal]

or at least this seems to be how it is as far as i can tell

[glacial knoll]

actually like, clip before where I teleport from going up too high that checks out

[swift jolt]

Oh wait yeah that actually makes sense

[glacial knoll]

because that didnt do fall damage

[analog brook]

Perfect, thank you

[marble magnet]

How many stacks of crowbars do I need before I can reach 1 mil damage on railgunner?

[lavish jacinth]

Approximately a lot, the best way to do it is with shaped glass and some other multipliers thrown in

[swift jolt]

stack stuff more than just crowbars! like watches (if you got the dlc), crit glass, ect ect

[lavish jacinth]

Shaped glass is unique in that its the only multiplier that stacks exponentially with itself, so you get way better returns on it

[marble magnet]

Ight

[lavish jacinth]

Hard to say exactly how many you'll need since it'll depend on your level though, just keep getting glass, crowbars and watches until it works

[marble magnet]

Oki

Im also stacking regen scrap for laser scope so

[lavish jacinth]

If you want you can get the glass last, do it in the bazaar and shoot newt

[marble magnet]

Ya

I also got glass artifact on I'm assuming it helps a ton

[glacial knoll]

really just artifact of glass artifact of command 3 or 4 shaped glass

but just a legit loop run would get there too

[marble magnet]

Yea

I'm just really lazy and wanna get this out of the way so I'm just doing it with y'know

Thanks :3

[onyx birch]

I tried to do the "roll into 5 airborne enemies " all night with chef and was wondering if it was bugged? i legit did it 4 times

[mellow crystal]

iirc it has really janky detection for how it actually works
like i somehow got it by just hitting the same vagrant twice

best bet is to get and aim it upwards while near a bunch of enemies

[glacial knoll]

best bet is stone golem

just circle him correclty and you get it

[jagged lava]

[round crane]

k

[onyx birch]

Ahh i aimed it towards the ground

Maybe that's why

[lavish jacinth]

You can use boosted roll with yes chef to make it easier too, enemies hit by the aoe will count

Even doing it with primordial cube isn't totally reliable, it didn't work when I did it. That unlock is just janky

this is how I ended up doing it

Thank you

[mossy mesa]

Do the debuffs you get from CHEF's abilities that are there for Chef's Kiss count for Death Mark? (The ability icon debuffs you get from each ability)

[glacial knoll]

No they dont

[mossy mesa]

Cool

Thanks!

[minor junco]

did they change merf and cherf dropping from the heads of the worms so they cant drop under the map? I remember that being a thing

or is that only if you use a tricorn on a spawned in version

[onyx birch]

I just got it and I’ve only been playing for 20 minutes @lavish jacinth thanks once again for the tips

[heavy carbon]

💀 i'm tryin to do thaat

[heavy carbon]

this shit is so hard

extremely difficult to control the roll

if you jump, you`ll fly to moon

[onyx birch]

Unlock yes chef first this helped me a lot

And the cube is 100% janky so I didn’t use it at all that time. I started the boss fight so more would spawn and found a high ground and hid until they got super close

[heavy carbon]

i just killed 7 airbones with a single roll

and this shit didn`t unlock

too glitch

[onyx birch]

Yea literally me last night then once I actually used yes chef I only killed 3 with a single roll and it popped

[heavy carbon]

i just rage quit

killed 9 airbones

and still no unlock

[scenic isle]

Hi im new to the game and was wondering where could I find the artifact console, I know it in Sky meadow in stage 5 but I'm getting a lava map called helminth catcher. (Playing in steam deck)

[steady stone]

Helminth has the artifact portal high above the normal play area, Sky Meadow has the portal under it

[scenic isle]

Oh I didn't know there were 2 different area, thank you

[empty marsh]

Hello, I come in asking for the chances of the shrine of gold to spawn, the one you need to pray to, to fight Aurelionite, cause i'm on stage 44 and I still have not got it

[crisp timber]

You can also access gilded coast via the blue shop

[empty marsh]

And is that a rare chance or is it via reasonable shot?

[tender temple]

its way more common that way than it is for it to appear as an altar

[crisp timber]

Base 5%, 15% if you have SotS and haven’t killed false son

[onyx plume]

if i take longstanding solitude, can i trigger the pillars in the aurelionite stage?

where it requires money?

[fresh umbra]

No

Well, unless you’re not max level

[onyx plume]

oh i meant

if free unlock stacks can do it but i got the answer

[fresh umbra]

Ah

[onyx plume]

ty

[placid bough]

does beating eclipse not count as beating the game with a survivor for the logbook??

[daring cloak]

Yea

Its weird

[placid bough]

thats so annoying

[onyx plume]

can newt alters not spawn in stage 3 treeborn colony?

[fallen bridge]

they can, they're just decently hidden

[crisp timber]

https://riskofrain2.wiki.gg/wiki/Treeborn_Colony#Newt_Altars

There's 3 possible spawns

[onyx plume]

ty

[marble magnet]

What's the best way to use tonic?

I use it for bosses/tanky enemy's or when I'm in danger

But idk if that's the best

[onyx plume]

how would longstanding solitude work on multiplayer

wouldn't it be generally less value because there are lot more chests than single player (free chest stacks won't keep up?) and it makes other chests more expensive?

assuming only one person in a group has the solitude on average, how will the game play out

i know in single player solitude works very well on false son, but idk if i should take it in duos or larger parties

or i might not have quite understood the item

Anything costing gold is increased by 50%. but is this increase only in terms of xp?

the gold costs of opening chests remain the same?

[crisp timber]

player with solitude cannot gain gold, everyone else can.
everyone gains levels equally.
chests cost 50% more

it's actually really good in multiplayer because in the later stages, you're getting way more gold than you'll need, so the cost to buy chests is irrelevant

[onyx plume]

ah i see

thank you

[lavish jacinth]

The best way to do it is to get enough equipment cooldown reduction to keep it constantly active (4x for perma uptime, or 7x if you don't have any gestures).
But if you can't keep it active then yeah, use it sparingly for boss fights or other difficult situations

[lavish jacinth]

That only happens if you kill it with tricorn, if the item drops naturally as a tp boss reward then it'll appear around the teleporter like normal

[random delta]

Hello, how do you get the more info on items inspection ?

[lavish jacinth]

turn on 'enable inspect' in settings, under the umbrella settings thing on the first page

[random delta]

I dont see it rn

I want to see the percentage of damage if it is what I want

[lavish jacinth]

this

it'll let you check items in your inventory or before picking them up to see more details about them

[random delta]

Oh ok thanks

[tiny knot]

Uhh... Asking this here, copied and pasted from the console discussions channel since this is the actual questions channel and I haven't gotten a response yet.

Anyways, uh... Haven't played RoR2 in a bit bc I forgot to upload my most recent PS4 save data from November to the cloud, so I only had one from September. Gave that PS4 back to my sister, who immediately lost it, B4 I could even remember that I had to upload it.

Anyways, uh... We found it, I have the most recent save back on the PS4 version, but... How do I transfer it to the PS5 version?

[heavy carbon]

if i lost my connection during a run

what will happen to my friend? and i will lost the whole run?

[crisp timber]

Who’s the host of the session

[heavy carbon]

me

i've network issues

trash wifi adapter

[crisp timber]

Session is done, unfortunately

They’ll get kicked out of the session

[lavish jacinth]

you'll probably want this https://thunderstore.io/package/KingEnderBrine/ProperSave/

[heavy carbon]

but if i use mods my achievments won't be locked?

[lavish jacinth]

no

mods don't affect achievements

[heavy carbon]

my friend need to use the modded version also?

[lavish jacinth]

not with this one, only the host needs propersave

[onyx plume]

how many stone pauldron on false son until he becomes too slow even with a lot of spikes thrown?

[knotty walrus]

Did the dlc2 characters reworks come out?

[pulsar creek]

Yes

[mellow crystal]

yes and they're pretty peak imo

[jagged lava]

So how do I tell which portal would loop me back to stage 1?

[lavish jacinth]

any portal besides the main teleporter aligned to the planet or the void portal (if one spawns) will loop

[jagged lava]

So if I keep going into Blue Portals, I'll just keep going with the run or...?

[lavish jacinth]

yeah

[jagged lava]

Okay, and I need to loop at least once for "A moment, Fractured" to show up, yes?

[steady stone]

every stage 3 post loop

[jagged lava]

Alright

Wait if the game loops, how do I get back to Mithrix if I ever decide I wanna refight him for a run?

[steady stone]

youll go back to stage 5, and can choose again to aim for the planet or fight him on the moon

[tender temple]

aligned to the moon i assume?

[steady stone]

it's visually easier to tell if you'll loop
if the prongs are in a circle, Mithrix, if they're in stacks, loop

goes to Mithrix by default

[livid wedge]

I've always found that weird. You'd think to get to mithrix, they would need to match the portal on commencement. But that portal has them the opposite orientation

[steady stone]

it was/is the opposite for moon1 actually but it's in the way of your vision when you get there

it takes away the awe when you get their first and see the immense room

[jagged lava]

Remind me to figure out how to get Artifact of Chaos I think.

That's the one that enables monster in-fighting, right? I just think it miiight come in handy.

[steady stone]

all friendly fire
it hurts you way more because of things like gas

[lavish jacinth]

I can't think many situations where it would be useful

[lavish jacinth]

it also says "the teleporter aligns to the moon/planet" in chat when you realign it

[lavish jacinth]

aligning to the planet also puts them in roughly the same shape as the prongs on the normal teleporter, that's probably part of it

[jagged lava]

okay, didn't see the prompt to aim for the planet so I guess I might be doing Mithrix again this run even though I was originally planning on Obliterate so I don't have to fight an endboss.

[steady stone]

it's when you interact with the outer edge, that the text appears

also fax made a small typo, aiming for the moon is mithrix

since he's, on the moon

[jagged lava]

So does that mean I fucked up since I'm on Commencement or...?

[lavish jacinth]

yep

and you have to shift the destination BEFORE you start charging it. Once the teleporter fight starts, the destination is locked in

although you can always use the artifact portal if you do forget to change it

[steady stone]

i was going to get a video clip myself haha

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, we have a pin for this but it's buried lol

[jagged lava]

fuuuck, I don't want my entire build put against me

[steady stone]

but that alignment in the photo is the "going to mithrix" one

the outer prongs and inner basin are separate things you can interact with

[lavish jacinth]

who are you playing?

[jagged lava]

On a scale of 1 to "You're fucked" how cooked am I for Mithrix

[steady stone]

your attack speed isnt crazy

keep your distance and hide behind the pillars

there's gaps between his attack bursts unless you have insane atk speed

[jagged lava]

Someone who has very little mobility on the ground and is a melee fighter

[lavish jacinth]

you could just say the name lol

[steady stone]

also he does damage himself with the orb slam

[jagged lava]

[steady stone]

sora is my favorite survivor

[jagged lava]

I was just aiming for Obliterate so I can just get his entry in the collection not fight Mithrix lol

[steady stone]

use your eviscerate to abuse invincibility and your dash to get cover/go around him

im assuming youre running full stock skills? i can record the basic movement

[lavish jacinth]

Shuriken and tesla coil are probably gonna be the biggest things to worry about

[steady stone]

tesla blacklisted at least, since sots

[lavish jacinth]

ah right

[jagged lava]

I mean, I do have a Q equip that vastly boosts attack speed so maybe if I get close enough to him, I can just speed blitz him before he can perform the equipment steal

[lavish jacinth]

he doesn't steal equipment

[jagged lava]

Oh so only the passives, okay

[trim lynx]

no the items :P

[lavish jacinth]

if you don't have any ranged damage, try to stay close and hug his back so he can't turn to face you

[trim lynx]

ohh wait you talking about like, passive items

[steady stone]

i fucked it up a bit, but you can generally hover behind his head

merc has a weird trait where his m1 does a little boost upwards when it hits

so you never really have to touch the ground

eviscerate is your panic button for i-frames

[jagged lava]

About to fight a max difficulty Mithrix on Monsoon. Let's hope my build is cracked enough that I won't get turned into a pancake

Dawg that 1200% hammer slam is scaring me

[lavish jacinth]

it's not that bad, it has a long enough windup that you can see it coming and avoid it, and some endlag where you can punish him

[jagged lava]

Annnd I died to the big pizza thing because turns out I do not have half the movespeed I even need to dodge it.
