[tender temple]

By shield I think they mean the big wall blast

[jaunty furnace]

just be cautious of the lasers ig

[tender temple]

The big laser seems so underwhelming

[jaunty furnace]

and if it wasnt obvious already, go in the holes of the laser grid

[clear whale]

depth perception...

[tender temple]

It has more windup than the colossus beam but it does tickle damage and is easy as fuck to avoid

[jaunty furnace]

i liked it tbh

there were moments where it shouldve 100% hit me though

[tender temple]

It was cool the first time but when I learned it did literally no damage I stopped caring

The heat vent things felt a bit unintuitive the first time I died though

Like I didn't even see them I just saw everything turn red and I died

[jaunty furnace]

yeah should be better telegraphed

[clear whale]

#lifechanging

[jaunty furnace]

maybe pull a 0-E and put a EXTREME HEAT DETECTED on your hud

like the moon explosion timer

[lavish jacinth]

I misread it entirely, I thought you were just supposed to break all of the vents to stop the attack

[clear whale]

oh right

[lavish jacinth]

bro literally just breathes on you

[clear whale]

the wing can still does it attack along with the vent

#lifechanging

voidling 2

[clear whale]

 >EXTREME HEAT DETECTED<
 DESTROY THE HEAT VENTS!

also

is it just me or the new stages are too big

it feels like Operator Training Grounds™

like id imagine the pain of a commando player trying to navigate through it

[lavish jacinth]

it's not that bad as commando

[jaunty furnace]

commando has a good mobility skill though

[lavish jacinth]

engie and cap would probably be miserable though

[jaunty furnace]

engie rocket boost ability when.......

[tender temple]

How do you even fight solus wing with engi

Can you place turrets on the rings around it?

Like the floating ring things that move with it

[lavish jacinth]

I'd be surprised if you could

[tender temple]

I just have no clue how you're supposed to play engi there

It's like voidling 2 in that regard

[lavish jacinth]

I'd assume stationary turrets can hit it from the platforms, but idk what you're supposed to with mobiles

[tender temple]

Even with stationary they'd just get shredded by all the shit solus wing has

I hope they at least take reduced damage from the upwards laser attack right

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, Engie's probably gonna have a rough time

But so far I've only really fought it as commando, I decided I want to get his skin first for no particular reason lol

[tender temple]

It felt rough as everyone I've played so far

It feels like I do little to no damage to the weak points

[lavish jacinth]

it probably has a ton of adaptive armor or something

[vestal plume]

how do i get the purge achievement??? i killed the boss and attacked the weird internal system

[tender temple]

Unironically feel forced for once to take shaped glass

[fierce glade]

Is there a legendary item on the new stage 4 map?

[lavish jacinth]

yeah

[fierce glade]

Oh yeah just found it, ||are there multiple spots for the chest or only one?||

[lavish jacinth]

I've been on that map a couple times and it's been in the same spot every time, but that might've just been luck

[fierce glade]

Gotcha

[wanton badge]

||Do I murder the machine god or accept the offer.||

SPoilers pls dont click unless you beat da dlc yet

[rose adder]

whats the name of the operator alt utility? like the actual name?'

[primal vector]

||One ends the run, the other continues it, each survivor unlocks its skin by doing one of the other, check it beforehand on the logbook ||

[worthy steeple]

can you go to the AC Altpath from Bazaar

[wanton badge]

ty C:

[wanton badge]

||thankyou again, Im chef so sadly I dont think theres a skin for him as I dont see a achievement for it||

[primal vector]

exactly, no skins for DLC survivors, only for basegame ones

[feral vine]

Do you have a mod that permanently pings things? The original one isn't working anymore.

[wanton badge]

I dislike that but i think thats completely understandable

[lavish jacinth]

you can ask #ror2-modding, but most (if not all) mods are gonna be broken for a while after the update

[feral vine]

Okay, I'll go check it out.

[marble magnet]

Best starting drones for operator?

[lavish jacinth]

I don't think there's a meta for him yet lol

[marble magnet]

💔 understood

Running two transport drones

Id say rn but I'm out rn, but when I get back home I'm continuing it

Question

Where specifically do the heat and coders lay in solus wing?

And do I specifically aim for the smaller eyes?

(I've died to it twice now)

[ornate magnet]

hey yall does anyone know where to find the legendary chest on the new 4th stage map

restored crater or something like that i dont remember the name

i have 3 sales stars i have to find it

[lavish jacinth]

there might be multiple locations, but both times I've been there it's been on the ground level inside a little building, up against a wall
I don't have a screenshot unfortunately but it wasn't too hard to find

[ornate magnet]

alright is there any indicators like in sundered grove or anything?

[lavish jacinth]

not really

[ornate magnet]

the description you gave should be enough either way 🙏 thanks

[lavish jacinth]

oh, it's also surrounded by a little pool of water, if that helps

[marble magnet]

Is there any guides on solus wing

[boreal crag]

dumb question how do you access the new maps?

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, you gotta shoot out its eyes, it loses a huge chunk of its health each time you break one

the heating things are just kinda all over the place, but you can actually see them in the ground before they pop up. It's like a little glowing circle on the ground

[marble magnet]

Uhh huh alright

And what are coders

[marble magnet]

The regular ones you just gotta be lucky

Conduit canyon needs a node to be entered (found on practically every stage 3 I think)

[rose adder]

do you guys like amp core over ejection core? I find it to be really lacking

[boreal crag]

oh damn ive done 4 runs i was starting to lose hope

[lavish jacinth]

there's also a node on stage 4, although using it skips conduit canyon, and you need* to go there to get the key things for ||the thing that comes after solus wing||

*encrusted key also works, inexplicably

[marble magnet]

Probably to link with random lore

So

Drifter is definitely after solus wing?

[lavish jacinth]

yep

[marble magnet]

Is it something to do with those prison matrix's

[lavish jacinth]

yeah

[marble magnet]

How do I unlock those

Hypothetically after I beat solus wing

[lavish jacinth]

just explore a bit, it's not too hard to figure out

[marble magnet]

Alrighty

[lavish jacinth]

but don't go through the portal that spawns

[marble magnet]

Won't do then,

Is the best time for solus wing no loop or

[lavish jacinth]

tbh I've fought it both with and without looping and the difficulty felt basically the same

[marble magnet]

Alrighty

So during its desperation phase

Kill heaters?

[lavish jacinth]

looping might still be easier since you'll have more items to work with but doing it preloop wasn't too bad

yep, destroying them creates a cooling zone that you can stand in

[marble magnet]

Ahhhh

Yea first time I went in

I did not search my surroundings and died AFTER killing it 💔

(I forgot to use the blast shower)

It's whatever

Also is the "endgame changing". Thing endgame changing or

Oh continue what you were typing sry

[lavish jacinth]

I misunderstood the attack entirely, I thought you just had to break the heaters and it would end. Lost two runs before my dumb ass tried standing in the cold zone lol

[marble magnet]

I just like questions 💔

[marble magnet]

Dang

Atleast we made the same kinda of mistake

[lavish jacinth]

uhh, endgame changing in what way?
(I still haven't beaten the thing after solus wing, got there on my third attempt but died)

[summer tree]

https://tenor.com/view/justice-league-unlimited-jlu-the-question-hello-blank-face-gif-11889267

[marble magnet]

Idk remember Suncles said "endgame changing".

[lavish jacinth]

no idea lol

[marble magnet]

Anyway yea

If I can face solus wing again I'll do so

[vagrant kindle]

think of it as a false son

you can end your run or go ahead and play more

[marble magnet]

Ah

[tacit zodiac]

where am i supposed to go for the mainline portal thing in the new dlc? i think my shit might be bugged

[icy jetty]

are you depositing the sentry keys in the little nodes

[tacit zodiac]

yeah all my stuff is deposited, i beat the big mega core thing, beat the MUL-T things anddddd i aint seeing a portal anywhere rn]

[icy jetty]

ohhh go to the thing you just killed

its eye is the portal!

[tacit zodiac]

OHHHHH oh my god thank you i thought it was that little room off to the side and i bugged it cuz i escaped the MUL-T fight room by dashing out

tysm appreciate it

[icy jetty]

of course! if u have any questions about the place that portal takes you just ask

[tacit zodiac]

ofc tyty!!

[daring wind]

||sooooo did i fuck up by attacking spex as soon as it spawned because he straight up newted my ass and i didn't get no options 💔 ||

||i was just forced to leave through the portal||

[icy jetty]

maybe... i never tried attacking it

[daring wind]

https://tenor.com/view/xqc-slam-tilt-rage-mald-gif-19082727

attack enemy with health bar bad

my one good mercenary build btw

[final sonnet]

||Same thing happened to me. First time I actually get there as Mando and I get literally no reward. I really want to know how to actually get the achievement so I don't waste another two hours.||

[icy jetty]

hes nice and harmless

[daring wind]

sooooooooooo i'm restarting

[icy jetty]

||which achievement has to do with the hidden realm 👀||

[daring wind]

||i just want the mercenary skin so like||

||did i lock myself out of it||

||i'm basically doing thiis to get all the skins for the chars (and experience the dlc ofc||

[final sonnet]

It's late here so I'm sleeping now and gonna look it up tomorrow, since it'll have been like 24 hours since the DLC released.

[icy jetty]

||did he get a skin?? im ngl i didnt check any of the other chars||

[daring wind]

||you need to reject the offering for mercenary's||

||everyone but the DLC characters got skins for the DLC||

[icy jetty]

||oh... yeah i think u did lock urself out of it for that run unfortunately :( ||

[daring wind]

||that's what i get ig||

||which sucks total ass because i had a boss shredding build AND i was on monsoon which is harrd to come by||

[icy jetty]

||sending u my luck for builds cause i havent lost a game in like a year||

[daring wind]

merc just sucks at single target without a proper build for it really

not even a spoiler lol why did i do that

||i do understand how to unlock drifter though, you need a substandard||

||which is cool given she's all about temp items and you need a temp item to unlock her||

[compact parrot]

so have we found all the recipe items?

[full oar]

||what are all the effects on items with drifter alt special||

[mighty mist]

do you essentially just have to beat the new special boss for drifter

[icy yacht]

yup then explore the area after

[vestal plume]

we rejected the offering and got the achievement, EXCEPT OUR DEAD FRIEND?

why...

[graceful dust]

Where can I find the alloyed collective patchnotes

[primal vector]

#announcements message

[tender lily]

does anyone know the artifact code for the shrine of mountains?

[graceful dust]

Its not listed there

Like bug fixes and such

[tender lily]

you don’t

[primal vector]

Just follow the link to steam in that message. I cannot post steam links

[tender lily]

ping me whenever you’re up n i can explain it to you

[mighty mist]

what do the operators unlockable abilities do? are they better then the originals

[vernal ruin]

Can't figure out a good way to get Operator's alternate utility. Anyone happen to have a tip on that?

[tender lily]

the bottom 3 im kinda slow n ss everything

[tender lily]

what is the unlock condition i kinda forgot

[vernal ruin]

Beat the teleporter boss on Conduit Canyon without touching the ground

[tender lily]

okay do yk how to get to conduit canyon first off?

[vernal ruin]

Yeah, find the node on Stage 3 and then go into the portal

[tender lily]

okay thats good, but for the dont touch the ground part, you just the equipment "Milky Chrysalis" and get enough "Gesture of the Drowned" for it to be inf flight

GOTD is a lunar item

that has a unique unlock condition

[tender lily]

do yk if you have that unlocked?

[mighty mist]

the firewall seems not as good as float

[vernal ruin]

I forgot Gesture existed again, lmao - thanks for the tip

[mighty mist]

what are drifters alternate abilities

[tender lily]

np gl

[tender lily]

it does soak up dmg pretty well but you do get rid of ur only movement

[mighty mist]

and really good movement at that

[tender lily]

the ricochet in tornado slam is really bad.. youre literally a ping pong ball if there multiple big enemies

it is good for cc but sometimes youll get sent flying off the map or to unwanted places

and tinker, what itll do is reroll items on printers n stuff that shows accessible items

and if theres n item on the ground that you dont want, use tinker on it and itll give you a temp version of that item while giving you item scrap to power

this passive

hope that makes sense

[mighty mist]

what’s the normal one for the junk cube

[graceful dust]

Me when I turn my ally's item to a temp item and a scrap(woops)

[tender lily]

the random item will be shown on ur back
it can vary from engineer's shield generator or a sticky bomb

[torn horizon]

Do I get it right that when a drone is chosen for operator's second skill - it's idle unless used?

[tender lily]

i play solo luckily but drifter is kinda troll

[tender lily]

you cycle drones on ur shoulder whichever drone is on ur shoulder is useless

until used but then the cycle continues

really annoying imo

[mighty mist]

is drifter strong?

[twilit turret]

does anyone know if the sots bugged stage logs are still bugged?

[tender lily]

really really limited due to them being solely close range but they can be strong if you build ur temp items right, but its annoying trying to constantly replace ur temp items when they run out

[mighty mist]

the reroll ability seems strong

[hasty kelp]

How do I get artifacts besides the Honor one?

[mighty mist]

atleast in every other rogue like i’ve played that kinda effect is very good

[tender lily]

all should be on the wiki, newest dlc isnt posted yet

[hasty kelp]

Ok thx

[tender lily]

yeah its useless if you run command tho

[mighty mist]

word but command is already a free run basically

[tender lily]

true

[mighty mist]

cleanup is the better move i’d imagine over the cube right

atleast in returns the scrap throw was insane

[tender lily]

unfortunately not really

[mighty mist]

Whattt how

Does it still pierce

[tender lily]

with the cube if ur right up on a big mob it’ll guarantee all hits

which would be a total of 2000%

400% 3 times and then the final explosion for 800%

mind you if you have enough junk you can spit the cubes out like crazy

[mighty mist]

Can you stack cubes

can we build a whole building

[tender lily]

potentially

[mighty mist]

I wonder if you could get a boss to stand on it then push the cube off a cliff

[tender lily]

nah it’s basically just a shotgun

[mighty mist]

insanely lame

why would they not keep that

[tender lily]

my exact thoughts

[mighty mist]

as it is she looks like she will struggle heavily against certain types of enemies

flying ones mostly

[tender lily]

yes ranged mobs r tough for her

[mighty mist]

she seems great with friends though

just give her all the scrap items

[tender lily]

when hitting the box it does have it own targeting system but since some flyers move so much it’s hard to hit

the flying jellyfish is such a pain to even get to but once you get on its head it’s n easy kill

imo operator is way better but also a little complicated but not so much that its bad

[mighty mist]

drifter seems complicated to play but less thinking

I’m not always managing which drone is next but i do have to manage scrap temp items and rerolling

[strange frigate]

any solus wing guide

[manic pecan]

is the amount of keys on the new stage capped or do half of them just fall into the void

[tender lily]

grab as many as you want

[clear whale]

something something:
laser hit like a fart but you still want to dodge it
line up for the upward / download laser beam attack
break the heat vents
verticality is king
avoid being too high / too low

[tender lily]

the junk will just naturally flow so it’s not too bad also the salvage has 30 sec cooldown so it’s not like that’ll get used much

[manic pecan]

no like i literally barely got any but i saw a lot stuck below the invisible stage floor

[tender lily]

you probably killed a lot of flying mobs that were above the void, you can make more spawn by interacting with the shrine of combat just make sure to kill the above a type of ground

[tender lily]

couldn’t have said it better 😭

[manic pecan]

what im asking is if there is a limit of keys lying on the floor

[mighty mist]

but drifter can speed up the cooldown with junk right?

[tender lily]

no

[mighty mist]

atleast boss scrap will reduce it

[manic pecan]

because none were dropping at all

[tender lily]

you have to kill a specific enemy type

were you killing those n none were spawning still?

[manic pecan]

what enemy type???

[tender lily]

junk is her gauge for her abilities, scrap is turning items into scrap but yes she can lessen cooldowns a bunch

[frank sluice]

anyone knows if the new Barrier decay changes are a buff/nerf/sidegrade? Like, is it that you have to be max Barrier to reach the pre-AC decay rate (buff), or you start with pre-AC decay rate and it only gets faster (nerf)

[tender lily]

there’s enemies that will spawn with a force field around them, very hard to miss kill those get yellow keys

[livid moat]

is there local coop mode??

[tender lily]

with mods i believe so

but you’ll have to do ur own digging because i don’t use mods

[mighty mist]

wait but the scrap throw it throws an item too?

what does that mean

what does random projectile entail

[tender lily]

@mighty mist

[distant yew]

does anyone know if undiscovered items drop with artifact of sacrifice

[livid wedge]

As long as the items are unlocked and available, yes

[distant yew]

awesome thx

[tender lily]

not sure but it’d probably be way easier n faster to just use command n get the items

[distant yew]

well im trying to discover the items to be able to use them with command and test synergies and the like

[mighty mist]

oh i misread that originally so it could be any other characters ability

[summer river]

||how do you decrypt the encrypted thing||

[tender lily]

yeah not all but some rn i’ve only seen engineers so

[tender lily]

||on the left behind the floating ball there’s chef, combine the encrypted item with any other yellow item from that map n boom he gives you a brain, give the brain to the floating ball||

hope that helps 😭

[mighty mist]

do you think operators normal secondary or alt is better

i’m partial to the alt cause it’s just always giving me damage

[summer river]

I gotta be blind but its a lotttt more descriptive than what i have seen so thank you

[tender lily]

you’re welcome 😭

[tender lily]

for dmg go alt, i really like the drones special ability mechanic so i usually stick with the first

some of them can do nice dmg like lt. drone boy or the big TC blah blah

but then you have really good heals also for the healing drones n emergency drones

versatility, go drone command
dmg, go ram

tho going drone command will make ur dmg kinda locked to ur drones depending on if you get lucky or not but that ram does the same dmg no matter what drone used

[marble isle]

do i get anything for beating ||solus wing||

[tender lily]

|| you can free drifter and continue through the portal to a new final boss granted you have the necessary items ||

[marble isle]

cool thnks

[lilac wolf]

can ||access node|| spawn in golden dieback?

[grave hull]

anyone figured out a strat for unlocking the utility for operator also when do you actually gotta initiate staying off the ground

[tender lily]

pretty sure it always spawns on the third map no matter what that map is

[tender lily]

for the dont touch the ground part, you just the equipment "Milky Chrysalis" and get enough "Gesture of the Drowned" for it to be inf flight

[hazy pendant]

Does anyone know how to get meal items? I still don't understand.

[tender lily]

meal items?

[hazy pendant]

Yeap

[grave hull]

ah ok but is there any like know when it starts like wont the cut scene get my cooked or something or is it the moment i enter the room after ||those 2 pillar things lockings the door||

[tender lily]

uhhhhh r you talking about chef behind spex?

[hazy pendant]

Yeah

[tender lily]

ur thinking of the big orb boss thats not the one you have to beat

before that the bird, that you have to kill

that’s the boss it’s referring to

[grave hull]

ohhh that bird thing before you get to the next area ohhhh

[tender lily]

i don’t think you can put normal items in him think he’s only for decryption

[tender lily]

yeah just start the tp while flying

and flying boss fight 😁

[grave hull]

that may be alot easier then i orginially thought cause if it was the other i wasl ike how am i gonna be in the air in that tiny tunnel

[tender lily]

yeah 😭

[tender lily]

yes, you combine the decryption items using him

[grave hull]

i did that mechanic some regular items can be merged but only a few from my experience

[tender lily]

oh? what do they give in return?

[grave hull]

i think an example is ||the steak and busling fungus makes a like new steak item thats basically just a stronger steak was like 50 hp or something instead i know there was more but thats the one i rememeber, also forgot to say some items merge to existing items of a tier above||

[tender lily]

oh.. i’ll def have to try that out

[mighty mist]

what is this

[lime marsh]

not sure if this is the channel for this but I'll give it a shot, my crosshair isn't showing the animation properly because of a mod and I'm trying to figure out which one to disable to make it work again, I feel like I've tried disabling almost every mod but I can only get it to work in vanilla, this is my mod list right now 019a9c79-ed7d-44c3-24dc-43ee4760b62e

[grave hull]

played like 4-6 hours yesterday when it dropped so i got a bit of experience

[hazy pendant]

idk

[mighty mist]

he can cook now?

[tender lily]

the chef behind spex

not the chef playable char

[mighty mist]

behind Who

[hazy pendant]

Where is it located?

[tender lily]

to the left of spex

[mighty mist]

who’s spex

[tender lily]

uhh once you beat the floating orb boss go through its portal n you’ll find spex, just don’t shoot at em

[mighty mist]

it’s like newt?

[grave hull]

its like a new bazzar

[tender lily]

kinda but harder to access

[grave hull]

yeah and i dont thinnk its able ot be done multiple times but im not 100% sure

ive ended my runs after 1 loop of doing it so i never saw if i could again

[tender lily]

yeah, i just unlocked drifter don’t think there’s any other main reason besides that n skins for accepting/rejecting

[dim sky]

does anyone have the new bandit and huntress skins?

can you share pictures if you have em pls

[mighty mist]

are the new skins cool

Do yall have any pics of the new skins

[tender lily]

they all kinda look like this

[grave hull]

so tech theme more or less

[dim sky]

i just got loader's and drifter's

not a fan of the drifter skin but loader's looks pretty neat

[tender lily]

that and resembling the vulture boss

[grave hull]

ill go unlock the bandit skin once i get this last operator skill im missing

[tender lily]

ik engi gets 2 wings

[grave hull]

didnt know old char got new skins

oh dang engi also ill needa go over all my mains to see whos got new skins

[tender lily]

drifters monsoon skin?

[mighty mist]

can i see drifters

[tender lily]

yeah when dlc comes out all base char get skins for that dlc

[mighty mist]

they all have the same theme???

[grave hull]

oh sick

[tender lily]

yeah

[dim sky]

yeah

[dim sky]

one sec lemme open the game

[mighty mist]

that’s lame

[grave hull]

also i was a little meh about operators skin but its something very least maybe itll grow on me more

[mighty mist]

can i see operators

[icy jetty]

i saw that it was red and was excited and was let down unfortunately..

[grave hull]

im in game so ill do a ingame screenshot

[tender lily]

for the new dlc those do but their monsoons skins all r different

[grave hull]

i only started so items are not covering me

[icy jetty]

its not like bad but its not my favourite

[grave hull]

more or less this - the crit goggles i got

[tender lily]

hmmm its alright ig

[grave hull]

its pretty mediocre but i like the playstyle so it makes up for it

[tender lily]

yeah same here

[mighty mist]

Is he not just red

[tender lily]

how do you like the alt abilities if ur trying tho out?

[tender lily]

basically just a makeover yeah

[grave hull]

beyond noth aving utiulity yet

[tender lily]

wait drifters is nice what

[grave hull]

the secondary like (m2 on pc) is amazing for dps builds,

[mighty mist]

so hers is like hood down i guess

I like that a lot

[dim sky]

i like the hood

[mighty mist]

Yeah but it’s definitely a much more unique variant then some

[tender lily]

yeah fs but it makes the drones feel less special imo

[mighty mist]

does the bag change

[dim sky]

the color and the straps are slightly different

but thats about it

[grave hull]

and his r skill the one beside ur equipment idk what console button is but that one has insane dmg scaling on alt version but its super niche and hard to hit i dont think it is worth swapping from the r that lets u basically fly and or make enemies take more dmg

[mighty mist]

honestly thats pretty good

[dim sky]

i havent properly played operator tho

[grave hull]

yeah im kinda sad it makes him less unique but hid dmg from using it is by far waaaaay better ngl

[dim sky]

what do yall think about him? good?

[tender lily]

starts slow imo but once you get their alt skills kinda jumps in terms of dmg

[tender lily]

yeah it’s either fun drones or nuke build

[grave hull]

operator is expensive to play cause u gotta focus drones AND items and if multiple people run him hes weaker cause you all fight for drones

[tender lily]

exactly what happened when i played with my friend

[grave hull]

but beyond those 2 factors the drones are realllly good

it makes alot of usually terrible/mediocre items really good

some items almost feel so niche to operator for value

[meager coyote]

what should i build for operator on a command run

[tender lily]

i usually just go the basic crit items to start then flame since their alt secondary is really strong for that

[tender lily]

yeah i sometimes die on purpose just to be the big TC drone

i am kinda stuck between which special to go with

[grave hull]

getting 100% crit, maybe 5-10 movement/attackspeed but quality of life
ur gonna want a little survivability also i found lot of success with stacking shield generators unironically because it scales so well few tougher times and then focus barrier restore items liek the new eclipse lite item

stuff like that

[strange frigate]

what does neutronium weight do

[tender lily]

pretty.. unique item

lowers ur stats by ~30% but you can pass that debuff onto other enemies by attacking them

[weary talon]

Where do you find find drifters back pack

[strange frigate]

what

[tender lily]

in the same room as drifter

hanging right next to them

[grave hull]

oh and drones is half the build so just buy all drones you can honestly then maybe get 1 ukulele willoshisp like just proc items for the sake of having

alot of items tho so its hard to say them all but drone buffing stuff liek box of dynamite the red item that just buffs drones and so on

[tender lily]

yeah…

[tender lily]

this will explain it better

[karmic swallow]

the alt drone is so fun :)

[past monolith]

how do i survive the new final boss i got like 30 sun debuff out of nowhere and instantly died

[tender lily]

so once you get him 50% he’ll activate uh cruel sun yes like grandparents

you can either break the fire emitters or break the cold emitters n sit next to them

both work fine

hope that helps

[scarlet pebble]

is there a new stage 5?

[grave hull]

yeah the emitters gotta break or just 1 shot boss basically only inbetweens idk if you can outtank it even with 100K hp

[tender lily]

nah

[grave hull]

maybe ill do a false son 100K+ build and see if i can outtank the attack i think last time i did it i hit like 500K hp unironically

[tender lily]

you can just kill him

[scarlet pebble]

also is there a legendary on the new stage 4? i dont wanna know what it is i just wanna make sure im not looking around for nothing

[clear whale]

Is it just me or Operator is underwhelming

[tender lily]

without him activating his cruel sun

[tender lily]

very very build dependent

and weird playstyle but understandable

[clear whale]

His mobility is good sure

[grave hull]

his dmg is low unless you use the alt m2 honestly

[clear whale]

But his damage is like Huntress levels

[grave hull]

or get a god build

[past monolith]

yes like at the end of the first part of the map

[blissful fossil]

Operators damage is top tier,just gotta play him the ways he’s meant to be played

[past monolith]

theres like a hole in the right part of a wall and you need a sentry key to open it

[karmic swallow]

me when i lie

something like mul-t or seeker is top tier dmg

not some low scaling attacks

[clear whale]

I will do this later

[grave hull]

also found perfect way to use the junk bot

if ur running command artifact

get get rusty keys right before stage swap so u can get a free item

and yes the key may disspear before you get to the box but just wait on the junk bot to drop another item and ur set

[karmic swallow]

you could also let it stack items and get like 20 crowbars right before a tp

[grave hull]

true but i like the idea of possibly getting free red items next stage if i was going for a speed run then yeah crowbar or something would be perfect

[meager coyote]

can access node spawn on tree colony?

[karmic swallow]

yes

[tender lily]

i mean he doesn’t do bad dmg

[karmic swallow]

he's completely reliant on his special

which has an 8 secs cd

so you can only do reliable dmg in short windows that depend on what enemy you're targetting every 8 seconds

[tender lily]

use his first special, then use his drone ram n boom

[tender lily]

i mean you can always go less cooldown or more charges

[whole mesa]

What's the proc coefficient on Drifter's m1? If anyone knows that is.

[karmic swallow]

so... rng reliant

[tender lily]

he not that different from ur normal char you wanna build

that’s not rng 😭

[karmic swallow]

yeah but he's not strong

[karmic swallow]

you can go whole runs without getting a voided cell

[whole mesa]

I watched my friend with like 2 items shred the solus hunter on operator

[tender lily]

yeah he’s not bad 🥲

[grave hull]

think the word is hes balanced more then he is bad

[karmic swallow]

cap

[grave hull]

instead of liek how drifter can hit some unnatural numbers in some cases

[tender lily]

yes

[whole mesa]

He had a plimp and polylute

[ionic igloo]

Can the currently queue'd drone on Operator still attack or heal, or is it in limbo? I haven't ever noticed it do anything but I could be blind

[tender lily]

big box go boom

[formal ferry]

haven't managed to unlock alt abilities on operator but he feels fine. Real good burst damage when you combo R with his Right click spam but beyond that his sustained dps feels kinda eh

[tender lily]

it’s useless when on ur shoulder

[ionic igloo]

ty ty

[karmic swallow]

it depends on the drone, gunner drone can still shoot

[grave hull]

i mean i just 1 shot the entire boss phase on level 3 without using the r skill on operator cause the alt m2 is just like that

[karmic swallow]

the healing drone doesnt heal you but if you've got an equipment drone it will still use the equipment

it seems more like a bug than an intended feature

[whole mesa]

Anyways does anybody know why Drifter's alt skills are so much easier to get than operators?

[tender lily]

there’s a lot of people who abilities r easier to get than others

[misty drum]

have we found the optimal method to do that alloyed hunter kill without touching the floor achievement? could you just do it with tricorn?

[tender lily]

nothing special

[karmic swallow]

if we're speaking on a character only standpoint, compare a tech genious to a random ass hoarder

[strange frigate]

what to do after solus wing boss? (i got drifter)

[grave hull]

just be like that most u get from operator is just happens in a game run

[tender lily]

uh… flight equipment, gesture of drowned

boom inf flight

[karmic swallow]

though as funny as this can be, its probably just the unlocks they could come up with

[karmic swallow]

if you use your m2 with the alt unlockable drone whilst doing your special dash, the operator will just hang to it

[grave hull]

also for the operatorr 5 drone one its 5 unique drones which is easy to get on a full length run

[tender lily]

don’t need full length

[grave hull]

thats why im saying its easy to get on a full run

it can be obtained prob by round 2 based on ur luck tho

[tender lily]

there’s like 4 drone items you can easily get

[karmic swallow]

any tips on surviving the laser ceiling the new boss makes?

[tender lily]

look up, look down, fit between gaps

[karmic swallow]

but if you stop moving to fit in the little square you just get atomized in monsoon

[tender lily]

😭

have enough hp to tank it 😈

[karmic swallow]

even with the opal shield it still eviscerated me yesterday

[misty drum]

i think the hitboxes on the lasers are a lot smaller than they actually look. im able to fit in-between the super tiny gaps semi consistently even while moving

either im lucky or the hit detection on them is weird

[tender lily]

yeah it’s n rng move

also his beam move sometimes doesn’t hit even when i’m standing still so

probably just a few hitbox bugs here n there

[karmic swallow]

oh god the first time it did that my whole room lit up with white and red

i ate that thing straight up

[grave hull]

also i know someone wa asking about the new red item stage 4 spot
they are silver first off and i only know of 2 atm
but i doub tthat person is still here

[tender lily]

yeah there’s one on the uh virtual portal map too

really nice imo
more red = more death

[karmic swallow]

bro wtf is up with these tower enemies that spawn little orbs

a healing one spawned and it just started spewing millions of heal bots and now the tp boss is back to full hp

[tender lily]

oh yeah whatever elite buff it has, it’s bomb will.. really terrible enemy to have sometimes

but shoot the bombs before they get thrown out n it’ll usually die from the explosion

[strange frigate]

what does exposed cerebblum do

[grave hull]

also hold up wouldnt the empathy cores be cracked with operator since ur stacking drones anyway

[tender lily]

|| give it to spex n boom boss fight ||

[karmic swallow]

and the new shield elites 💀

[strange frigate]

im afraid to press who do i give it to?

[tender lily]

|| Commando - Reject
Huntress - Reject
Bandit - Accept
MUL-T - Reject
Engineer - Reject
Artificer - Accept
Mercenary - Reject
REX - Accept
Loader - Accept
Acrid - Reject
Captain - Accept

after boss fight you wanna do this based on ur character for the skin, accept by interacting with boss, reject by smacking it ||

[tender lily]

uh there’s a orb that’ll spawn in front of spex just give him the brain

[strange frigate]

i got kicked out after giving

[tender lily]

are you sure you didn’t smack him…

he only kicks you out if you smack him

he’s like newt

[strange frigate]

i thought i initiated the boss fight after giving

cuz i saw the healthbar

im screwed rip

[tender lily]

indeed you are

you don’t fight him, he’ll open a portal for you

but yeah just make sure not to smack em

[strange frigate]

cant hurt to replay

[tender lily]

yeah 🙂‍↕️

[karmic swallow]

is op's alt m2 good?

i feel like you miss out on a lot of utility

[grave hull]

dmg wise its masssssive
but yeah you miss out on the uniqueness of what each special drone does

i find the dmg outweighs the util if ur talking for overall value but the util is fun

[karmic swallow]

its also harder to make it combo with your ejection core

since the targetting can take a bit and bosses dont get lifted that much

[grave hull]

while thats true but the dmg you get from it basically can just 1 shot boss without the skill but they usually just have enouhg time anyway

window is uncomfortable tho ill admit

[tender lily]

use the breaching fin?

idk the exact name

[grave hull]

that work the one that lifts them right?

[tender lily]

did some testing that actually works kinda well with it

[tender lily]

yeah

[karmic swallow]

bosses get lifted even less with that item than the already pathetic height they get to with the skill

[quaint dock]

what am I supposed to do with spex, he asks for an offering and just gives back my items

[grave hull]

eh well it aint that needed i think the alt skill does expectional even without the nano dmg boost

but you should barely get the window off if ur timing it right

[tender lily]

yeah i agree

[tender lily]

so yk the yellow item you got from the boss before that, combine that n another yellow tech item, to the left behind spex

then give him the brain

and boom boss fight

drifter monsoon seems.. tough…

really sucks against flyers so you kinda just get pelted

[subtle flame]

can you get a sentry key while in solutional haunt
i went into encrypted portal on stage 4 and idk if im softlocked out of the final boss for this run

[tender lily]

uhhh

[quaint dock]

ah thanks I got it

[tender lily]

nice

[tender lily]

you haven’t beaten the orb boss yet?

[subtle flame]

what does this have to do with anything

what is the orb boss
ive beaten all the bosses

[tender lily]

uh i’m trying to see where you r in the run sighs

if you haven’t beaten the boss for the haunt yet

you can use the keys you would use to unlock drifters

to decrypt

[subtle flame]

ohhh you can use prison matrix

okay sick

okay thank u so much

[tender lily]

np

[subtle flame]

how r u sp to be able to afford the tc 280 at haunt

[tender lily]

some vultures will spawn in the rooms

pretty small amount of money from them unless they are elites

[karmic swallow]

wheres the secret chest* on the new stage 4?

[idle perch]

Does anyone know if fireate affects operator at all???

[karmic swallow]

it makes his charges go up faster id guess

but he does shoot faster

[idle perch]

Aight thx

[karmic swallow]

bruh doing the whole bossfight without touching the ground is such a bs unlock

[tender lily]

nah it’s pretty easy

[karmic swallow]

let me guess

oh just use artifact of command and get this very specific item you wouldnt have that much chances of getting on a regular run

[tender lily]

yeah....

but anywaysss 😭 pretty fun that a char can just do this with 2k hp also the infusion hp bonus stay even when the temp item runs out

[deep igloo]

so how do you decrype the encrypted cerebellum?

[tender lily]

behind spex, on the left

use chef to combine the cerebellum n another yellow tech item

[deep igloo]

alr and how can i get back to spex?

[tender lily]

back?

[deep igloo]

ye cuz i didnt have any yellow tech items

[tender lily]

don’t think you can unless you loop but haven’t looped since you can do everything in the first run

[deep igloo]

alr ill try it then

[lilac wolf]

is it possible to get into new locations through newt?

[tender lily]

alright gl

[tender lily]

yes

[lilac wolf]

fire

[tender lily]

don’t count on it tho since it’s pretty low chance

[quasi light]

Guys if I hit a junk box with tornado slam does the box do more damage when it hits an enemy?

[gentle moss]

how do i make the last two foods from chef

[tender lily]

no it’ll do the same

[karmic swallow]

in what world did the devs decide that it was a good mechanic to put movement restricting bossfights in a game where if you stop moving you die 😭 😭 😭

[quasi light]

Whats the point of tornado slam then I don't feel like its that good

[tender lily]

elaborate?

[tender lily]

it’s not

[frigid folio]

how do you keep an elder lemurian airborne for 10s without killing it?

[tender lily]

black hole equipment

[frigid folio]

was about to ask if that works

[quasi light]

U mean it's good or bad?

[karmic swallow]

hope for it to be an elite

[tender lily]

it’s really bad

[gentle moss]

the last two craftable foods from combining items? its the only two i need

[quasi light]

Thanks

[quasi light]

What?

[tender lily]

is there a list or sum..? or achievement?

[karmic swallow]

does the engi's bubble shield protect you from the heat stacks you get on the bossfight?

[tender lily]

nah only projectiles

[quasi light]

What do heat stacks even do

[gentle moss]

kill you

[quasi light]

Nice

[karmic swallow]

microwave your ass like a hot pocket

[quasi light]

Sounds cozy

[gentle moss]

these two

[quasi light]

Where tf is that iven made / found in ror2?

[karmic swallow]

i still cant fathom how even with starstorm 2 devs they all agreed on making the boss fight restrict you to a very certain place or pass a dps check before you check out the main menu again

in a game where essentially the W key is taped to the bottom of ur keyboard

[gentle moss]

|| beat solus wing||

[tender temple]

wheres the leg chest on conduit canyon

is it in part 1 of the stage or part 2

[quasi light]

I did

[tender lily]

1

[gentle moss]

||area to the right of spats, chef bot combines items||

[tender temple]

hypothetically speaking, can you get to it with little to no movespeed

[tender lily]

it’s on the outside of one of the “ships”

[tender lily]

the outside rails will take you there

[quasi light]

Oh fr? Whats it used for

[gentle moss]

||..beating the dlc?||

[quasi light]

So killing the boss isn't the beating the dlc

[tender lily]

it’ll get you to that point

[gentle moss]

killing ||solus wing??|| no

[tender lily]

it’s a step in the process needed

[quasi light]

Dam

[gentle moss]

||solus wing drops an item you need to combine with chef||

[tender lily]

is chef the only way to get the food items or after you cook them via chef they can spawn in normal runs?

[gentle moss]

as far as i can tell, only chef

the food has its own rarity/ color

[normal slate]

I think it’s labeled as the meal rarity

[tender lily]

yes which is why they said it has it own as there are no other meal items

[tender lily]

but ight thanks ill look into that later

[grim prism]

whats the best way to get the trial of the mountain challenge done with drifter

[tender lily]

is the code for that out?

ohhh nvm for the ability

uhh just smack a boss get it low make sure you have no drones

or anything that dot

then toss a shrine of mountain at its face

[gentle seal]

Is crashing every single run around stage 3 a new feature because if it is i think they should take that out in the next update

[tender lily]

uhh what r u using?

[gentle seal]

Playstation

[tender lily]

ah playstation crashes a lot of games sometimes

it’s usually not the games fault

[grim prism]

i have seen the code for that ||https://www.reddit.com/r/riskofrain/comments/1p0kz8x/here_is_the_artifact_code_if_anyone_is_interested/#lightbox||

[gentle seal]

No. Not really. Game ran fine before the update too.

[tender lily]

thank you so much 😭

[tender lily]

ah well my ps5 crashes a bunch of games sometimes but if it worked fine before update then maybe make a bug report

[karmic swallow]

why can engi have 3 sentries without the voided cell now

[gentle seal]

Unfortunately there is no where to actually make a real bug report besides the bug report chat which is just that, a chat where you can say that youre having problems.

[past elbow]

||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdnnd1fFOQ0||
if anyone is struggling to get the Operator skill by killing 4 different enemies ^^

[karmic swallow]

what

whats causing this

[tender lily]

uh…

[karmic swallow]

i didnt even place that fourth one that was mitosis

[upbeat vessel]

Quick question. I'm trying to use an XBOX1 controller on steam ROR2 and since the update came out im not able to move my camera. My right stick works, steam is picking up responses, im able to move my camera with my mouse. Im able to ping while pushing in the right stick so im not sure whats going on. Restarted game, restarted pc, restarted steam, reinstalled game. Im at a loss rn.

[upbeat vessel]

It was working fine b4 the update

[karmic swallow]

also idk why my seed of life is activated? i didnt die
but i also have the extra equipment slot item and i just got another unused seed of life

[tender lily]

dang that’s two issues with console after update

wish i could help guys 🥲

[upbeat vessel]

is there anyone is this server who could help with this?

[tender lily]

how you get 3 even?

[tender lily]

best chance is looking in bug reports but i wish you the best of luck

[karmic swallow]

you usually can do that with the voided energy cell but i dont have that

i think it has to do with my seed of life equipment

this is getting out of hand

[solid schooner]

Whats the code for the new artifact?

[tender lily]

||https://www.reddit.com/r/riskofrain/comments/1p0kz8x/here_is_the_artifact_code_if_anyone_is_interested/#lightbox||

[celest field]

can someone operator for dummies me? i cant tell what his drone skill do

[tender lily]

so his m2 activities whatever drone is on his shoulder ability

you can check what it’ll do my pressing tab n going to the bottom right of the screen

[thin ginkgo]

does my friend need the same dlcs i own so that we can play together?

[tender lily]

nope

they’ll share if you join together

[dense kernel]

Can someone check this math I have a feeling it’s wrong if a railgunner has 200 crowbars and uses a supercharged shot it would be 4000% X (1+(0.75x200)) totaling to 60 million, that doesn’t seem right

[tender lily]

it’s not perfect scaling so they won’t all do .75 more

[celest field]

lol once its explained to me its seems obv 💔

[dense kernel]

I thought 2 crowbars did 1.5x no?

[tender lily]

yes but it’s not linear scaling

so the more you have the more it’ll fall of from its 0.75 value

[dense kernel]

Really? I thought it was

Huh

Makes sense I guess

[celest field]

is his bounce range based?

[dense kernel]

Ya the wiki says linear

Weird

[tender lily]

nvm don’t listen to me it is linear 😭

[dense kernel]

All good lol

[tender lily]

for what exactly

[celest field]

sometimes it seeems i get a kill with no ricochet

[tender lily]

ricochet only activates on m1 kill

[tender lily]

it just depends on the base dmg of the character at the time which is weird to calculate

[narrow sleet]

what are some good items to look out for operator?

[tender lily]

i didn’t do much testing with railgunner since i just went for that 1 million then got off

[jaunty furnace]

m1 ricochets on kill, gunner drone ricochets if theres multiple enemies

[tender lily]

anything drone related imo other than that treat them like you would with any ranged char with items

[pine valve]

any ways to increase operator charge rate?

[tender lily]

attack speed pretty sure

[celest field]

does op and a decreased drop rate for drones

[manic pecan]

does alloy hunter bypass dio's friend? is the item bugged rn?

[dense kernel]

I’m going to test it tonight, the idea was from yesterday when my friend had 200 syringes on drifter cuz he could make items faster than they would expire so we had the idea to do that with railgunner

[tender lily]

i don’t really understand what ur tryna ask

[tender lily]

she can hack you make all ur items useless for a bit

[jaunty furnace]

which charge rate
m1? attack speed

[manic pecan]

bruh.

[celest field]

are you less likely to find drones on the map when your playing as operator

[tender lily]

exactly what i’m doing rn 😭

[dense kernel]

I think secondary

[tender lily]

nah

[dense kernel]

Oh hell ya, lmk how it goes

Last night his attack speed was faster than the games refresh rate

[tender temple]

do we have any idea what the recipe for sdp is

id assume one of the items is box of dynamite

[tender lily]

pretty good imo, 3k hp

sonic build 😋

[dense kernel]

Ya drifter may be a little broken

That and drone respawns

[tender lily]

definitely broken monsoon doesnt even feel like monsoon, ik im using command but still 😭

[rapid sage]

Did rex get buffed or is it me coping?

[dense kernel]

I did a run last night where my friend built damage reduction and survivability and I just would spam shaped glass, die when we got in, spawn missile drone and destroy the level

[rapid sage]

I was playing him with the new dlc and I could m1 reset with my m2 which increased damage

[lime marsh]

does anyone know where the legendary chest spawns on the new stage 4? (not the alt path map)

[dense kernel]

I saw it in a locked room u needed one of those keys for

[lime marsh]

nah not the alt path map

[dense kernel]

If we talking about the digital world

Oh then idk

[lime marsh]

this map

[livid wedge]

I haven't even gotten that map yet

[lime marsh]

I dont remember the name of this map lol

[celest field]

can you parry void death?

[tender lily]

turning into the drones is so funny, first thought it was an only operator thing but nah

[dense kernel]

Ya and keeping ur items is op as hell

[timber void]

What is the reasoning for old dlc characters not getting new skins.

[undone spade]

does anyone know how to unlock artifact of prestige?

[tender lily]

no dlc characters get skins

even the new ones

cuz they are not apart of the man games

[dense kernel]

No I think the dlc character got prime maridian skins

I think void dlc got them

[timber void]

I’m asking why. Because they have old dlc characters skins in seekers of the storm

[frosty trout]

I somehow summoned a second blue portal but it's like digital ie or something, and was wondering if someone could possibly explain it?

[timber void]

So I’m wondering why it’s changed

[tender lily]

new dlc area

[dense kernel]

Ya that’s the new area

It’s pretty cool

[frosty trout]

Oh yeah I forgot I'm using my friends copy lol dlc stuff

[lime marsh]

found it

[tender lily]

really uh complex place, probably do some research before heading in

[lime marsh]

its fully white, kinda threw me off a bit

[tender lily]

nice eyes, ty for the info

[frosty trout]

Is it difficult or idk, my friend still kinda just introduced me to this game so would it be a good idea for me to go there?

[tender lily]

probably not a good idea if ur new

[dense kernel]

If u haven’t don’t the other DLCs no

I’d recommend getting used to the other DLCs before tackling the new one

[frosty trout]

Alr thanks

[pine valve]

is there a list of what the new items do

[tender lily]

not yet i don’t think, but it should be on the wiki sooner or later

[chrome wigeon]

i dont see mine here : /

[lime marsh]

I saw some other people say it was near some of the buildings on the ground level

I think it has different spawn locations

[chrome wigeon]

yeah i'll try looking

[undone spade]

thanks

[jolly glade]

Anyone have an easy way to complete operators challenges? Specifically killing 4 enemies with on ricochet, defeating the conduit boss wo touching the ground, and keeping an elder lemurian airborne for 10 seconds

[past elbow]

yeah bro I gotchu.

Im working on vids for each one but so far I only have a vid on the 4 enemy challenge.

[quasi light]

Any tips for drifter? I'm doing the challenge of picking up the backpack thing as drifter but when I activate the node to go the new map I get swarmed and quickly killed because it spawned no joke like 50 to 70 enemies at once (looks about 50 to 70 enemies)

[jolly glade]

Any tips?

I’m assuming for the elder lemurian it’s just use two transport drones

[hexed crescent]

guys i'm already at spex and i don't have a key to decrypt the cerebellum, is there anything i can do or am i cooked?

[past elbow]

||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdnnd1fFOQ0||
For the 4 enemy kill challenge for operator ^^^
Play on drizzle with artifact of command on, and patience honestly. It took like 20 minutes for me to get it but the concept is there

[lime marsh]

you can use the primordial cube to keep an elder lumerian airborne for a while

[quasi light]

Any tips 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[past elbow]

I havnt even played drifter yet tbh.

[lime marsh]

I got it on abandoned aqueduct in the room where you get the bands

[past elbow]

She seems like a lot of fun but im waiting to complete operator and making the short guides

[solid schooner]

Why did I die when I had 2 "Dio's Best Friend"? No there were not alloyed collective enemies nearby only imps

[quasi light]

Saw somebody else complain about this earlier it's a glitch probably

[urban narwhal]

is there a setting which allows the mouse to leave the game window whenever the mouse isnt locked to the middle of the screen?
bassicly what im searching for is to not have to press windows key whever i wanna click sth outside of the game, assuming im sitting on some in game menu

[violet frigate]

Came through the alloy portal after a loop, killed the boss, even did all the things to ||Get the Mul-t umbra to spawn||
There IS nothing to hit to leave
did we just mithrix bug it and we're boned? Or is there anything we can do? Because we can't find anything at all to leave

[quasi light]

The boss should be there destroyed and you have to enter it's eye

[violet frigate]

There isn't
I've been through it before and it normally dies right where that circle is, there isn't one at all

Normally it would be sitting right here, with the portal right behind me

[tender lily]

probably can’t do it after loop..?

my only guess

[violet frigate]

Surely it would give me an option to leave then tho?

And not just completely soft lock us?

[final sonnet]

Hallo

[gentle moss]

I Think youre boned

[violet frigate]

💀

[chrome wigeon]

FOUND IT!

oh my god that took way too long to find

[frigid folio]

killed the boss, im in the digital area
what do i do with the cerebellum

[tender lily]

okay so basically to not piss of spex, for one don’t attack it or you’ll be kicked out like newt does, what you wanna do is go behind him to the left, chef will be there n will wanna craft uh decrypted brain, which is the boss drop from the previous level, combine that n any yellow tech item n give spex the exposed brain n boom another boss fight

[tender lily]

read what i just sent

[chrome wigeon]

welp there goes my run trying to find that chest ; /

[tender lily]

did you die 🥲

[chrome wigeon]

no i just took way too long and i dont have great items for dlc boss

[frigid folio]

so both the triangle and the cube are fine

[tender lily]

ah ic

[frigid folio]

i saw that i can use these together but didnt wanna risk

[tender lily]

no you need the brain

[frigid folio]

im aware

[tender lily]

brain n either triangle or cube

[frigid folio]

im asking: cerebellum + triangle or cube

[tender lily]

but triangle n cube doesn’t combine

[tender lily]

yeah myb

[violet frigate]

You can also use a key I think
I did it with an encrusted key and it worked

[solid schooner]

why is the|| mul-t umbra|| important? I faced it on one of my first runs and it didnt give me anything

[frigid folio]

thanks, thats all i needed to know

[violet frigate]

idk, I just wasn't sure if killing it would do anything or not

[tender lily]

lore thing pretty sure other than that it just gives a lunar item

[final sonnet]

So if that's rejection, how do you accept the offer?

[tender lily]

that’s not rejection

rejecting is after the boss fight after you give him the brain

after you kill the crazy boss

you can either interact to accept or attack him to reject

depending on ur character n what you do you’ll get a skin

[frigid folio]

'leave offering' is giving it to that thing right?

[tender lily]

Commando - Reject
Huntress - Reject

[tender lily]

yes

[frigid folio]

im asking because it could easily be understood as 'leave this place'

[tender lily]

no worries i understand

[frigid folio]

thanks

[tender lily]

np

[final sonnet]

So I have to kill the big boss, get the item, go thru portal, combine for that item, give him the item, then beat him, then Finally reject or accept?

[tender lily]

yeah BUT

after you give him the item

he’ll spawn a portal that you go in

don’t beat up the guy you gave the offering to

[final sonnet]

Alright

[tender lily]

but everything else is correct

[final sonnet]

Thank you I don't know if I'd have ever figured it out naturally

[tender lily]

yeah i spent a while doing blind testing 🥲

just beware

|| he has a LOT of hacking so ur build will become useless ||

and have decent movement

cuz he also moves a lot

[final sonnet]

Ok I'll keep that in minf

Oh also I'm not missing anything here, the Operator and Drifter just like, don't have skins for that achievement, right?

[frigid folio]

that i figured but only because i had the item that shot homing projectiles as you sprint, so i accidently damaged him and got kicked out

[chrome wigeon]

jesus this boss is so tough, how do you guys manage to beat it?

[tender lily]

unfortunate…

[tender lily]

which boss

ohh wing

uhm i can answer some questions on him if you have any

[tender lily]

nope

only for monsoon

[final sonnet]

It's SotS all over again

[frigid folio]

is there any special reward of any kind for beating the secret boss?
with any of the characters

i killed him and no achievments nor anything

[chrome wigeon]

it just feels like i deal such little damage to his mini eyes and when i eventually get the 3rd eye he uses all his mechanics at once, massive laser beam+ floor lasers going up or down + the giant pylons emitting that heat damage

[tender lily]

skins that all

Commando - Reject
Huntress - Reject
Bandit - Accept
MUL-T - Reject
Engineer - Reject
Artificer - Accept
Mercenary - Reject
REX - Accept
Loader - Accept
Acrid - Reject
Captain - Accept

do this based on ur character @frigid folio

[livid wedge]

Correct, only monsoon skins

[tender lily]

reject by hitting him, accept by just talking

[frigid folio]

my question is: what reject and accept means

[tender lily]

.

[livid wedge]

Yeah, get close enough and you'll get a prompt to interact and accept

[tender lily]

accepting is letting him take over you kinda n ur run ends, reject y smacking him with anything n continuing the run

[livid wedge]

Otherwise, just shoot him after defeating him to reject

[loud cedar]

Question...Whats the Trial of Prestiege and how do i get it? Is it like the shapes i need to find or is it something else entirely?

[frigid folio]

i kinda melted him instantly , was doing an unlock run for alt abilities
does he not attack at all if i dont attack first?

[livid wedge]

Same as the other artifacts, there's a code to enter at the artifact portal

[frigid folio]

also uh, drones began shooting him from the start so i assumed he was immediately hostile

[tender lily]

no ur fine u were supposed to hit

but after you kill him n fall down like 50 floors

that’s when you accept or reject

[loud cedar]

Is it just in the world randomly? Or is there a certain spot to find it?

[frigid folio]

is it after his second healthbar

or is it at the point of his second healthbar

[foggy vessel]

what does nanobugged do

[tender lily]

here the code for trial of pres

Triange, circle, circle

Square, circle, triangle

Circle, circle, square

[tender lily]

just look at it on operator skill info before you start the match

[loud cedar]

Bless your soulllllllll thank you so much lmao

[tender lily]

no it’s at no point during his healthbar

[frigid folio]

its still confusing
but from what im gathering: nanobugged enemies take more dmg from all skills, and you also do extra split hits that do dmg

[chrome wigeon]

you deal much more damage to them but the debuff goes away once they hit the ground i think

[prisma sonnet]

commando got buffed? i feel so strong with him

[tender lily]

yes that’s it

keep them floating you will delete them

[foggy vessel]

yeah it just says enemies are nanobugged until they hit the ground i wanna know what the DEBUFF itself does

[frigid folio]

maybe some aoe hit him or something
i kinda hate this because its so unintuitive to what ror2 normally is about and is played
so i have no clue if i accidently killed him after his 2nd healthbar got melted or wha thappened

[foggy vessel]

thanks

[tender lily]

yes if you go on info it’ll tell you sighs

[tender lily]

yeah probably drones or ape hit him

did he say anything about not wanting to die?

[frigid folio]

yeah

[tender lily]

yeah then something hit him unfortunately

[frigid folio]

it kinda happened immediately

[meager coyote]

what do i do on a drifter command run

[frigid folio]

why couldnt they have made it an E interaction

[chrome wigeon]

so by that logic my guess is knockback fin is perfect for it

[tender lily]

focus crystal, attack speed crit, basic stuff

[tender lily]

knockup specifically

[foggy vessel]

yea prolly

[tender lily]

think it’s called breaching fin?

[frigid folio]

it is

[chrome wigeon]

right yeah i misspelt that

[foggy vessel]

yes

[weary parrot]

what happend if i have a corrupted yellow, and then i go to the new stage 4?

[tender lily]

alright thanks

[tender lily]

it’ll only take boss items, so ur keys shouldn’t be affected

[chrome wigeon]

yeah breaching fin plus the operator ability and you can keep enemies in the air longer so you take full advantage of the debuff to melt them

[tender lily]

you’re welcome 😭

[weary parrot]

also what exactly i have to do to unlock drifter special? (or where)

[foggy vessel]

the bag is in the same place you find her

[weary parrot]

thx

[woven talon]

what starting drones do yall recommend for operator?

[tender lily]

i typically go the healing ones since they heals, n their ability gives you barrier, attack speed n movement speed,

[woven talon]

as in 2 healing drones?

[tender lily]

yeah

[woven talon]

alr ty

[jaunty furnace]

whatever you like really

i like default

fun ricochet-ing bullets + healing, attack speed, and movement speed

[compact osprey]

yo thank you so much i could not find this anywhere else

[tender lily]

welcome

[tender lily]

it spawns a lot of bosses beware

i was on monsoon but yeah

[compact osprey]

its all good i got like 8 drones on op rn

[karmic swallow]

im gonna mess this boss up

[compact osprey]

how do you have so many engi turrets?

[karmic swallow]

i dont know for sure

its clearly a bug, i think my turrets are reviving bcoz of my seed of life

so when i place a new one, the old one dies and comes back

[compact osprey]

ohhhhh

very interesting

gonna have to try that with command lol

[karmic swallow]

but this didnt use to happen before right? and it surely doesnt happen with either

[compact osprey]

i've never seen it before but i've also never had seed of life with engi before

[karmic swallow]

i have the yellow item that lets you have 2 equipments too, so maybe thats what messing this up

[compact osprey]

oh maybe

if you get a stack of those do you get a third slot?

or does it just buff the second

[karmic swallow]

i shouldve set this one to monsoon

[karmic swallow]

no clue

[compact osprey]

go destroy that stupid ball

[foggy vessel]

yes

[compact osprey]

wow thats crazy

[karmic swallow]

im gonna tech diff it

[frozen rivet]

where is the ||repurposed crater legendary||

[ember anvil]

Anyone have any advice on juggling an elder lemurian for operators unlock? Couldn't find any naturally last night so I did the gates on stage 2 but they both died in 3 seconds lol

[chrome wigeon]

why does it keep telling me "You hear thunder rumbling" everytime i enter the bazzar? I see 2 yellow thingies poking out at the side of the terrains bellow i can hit but other than that i feel a tad bit lost

[tender lily]

black hole equipment

just look up

[tender lily]

it’s how you do green portal dlc boss

there’s more to hit around the little cave

[ember anvil]

Omfg I dunno how I never thought of that, tysm lmao

[tender lily]

yw gl

[karmic swallow]

get owned stupid ball

[lament steppe]

Hey someone know ehat the new blue item does?

[violet frigate]

Lowers your stats in combat but you can give it to enemies

[lament steppe]

i was i bit scared to pick it up when i found it in a run

[lament steppe]

how is that useful?

[tender lily]

lunar items.. aren’t really useful half the time

[violet frigate]

Give it to enemies I think
idk I don't use lunars besides gouge and heretic items

[tender lily]

here’s a exact

[lament steppe]

Oooh now thats useful

Its just a dubuff

[loud lynx]

How do I get drifter is it from the new boss and is it obvious how to get her cuz I don’t want to get spoiled

[tender lily]

long process

idk how to tell you exactly without spoils but

a lot of bosses n unique portal

[fiery widget]

Okay I have a question about operator that I can't figure out, with his drone hover ability it says he can leap to another drone, but for me he only seems to just lunge in a direction without activating the hover again

Am I doing something wrong

[tender lily]

gotta look at a drone

[fiery widget]

Ohhhh

[loud lynx]

Oof

[tender lily]

yeah

[loud lynx]

Well ||I have already made it to the big eye boss the new one if that’s what you’re talking about||

[tender lily]

there’s a bit after that

have you left that area or?

[tender lily]

cuz thats where you get the new char

[loud lynx]

Mk

[steady swallow]

||is the new final boss meant to be entered on stage 3 or way later||

[karmic swallow]

do i need to accept the offering or deny it with engi?

[daring wind]

(DLC) how to ||reject the offering||?

[karmic swallow]

shoot at the thing

[violet frigate]

Deny

[daring wind]

it newts you though

and you don't get anything

[karmic swallow]

isnt that how you deny it?

[daring wind]

i'm asking because ii got thiis far as mercenary and i attacked him, got newted, and didn't get a skin

[violet frigate]

Decrypt the brain

[daring wind]

is that not how you accept

[violet frigate]

No
It takes you to a second boss

[foggy vessel]

it is

[daring wind]

i would assume giving it something accepts it
