6 chronics, 2 gasolines, 1 ignition tank, three will o wisps, sonorous whisper, frost relic, 57 leaf clover, spare drone parts, two crit glasses, 15 white scrap, 7 green scrap, 1 red scrap. Had like 6-7 drones. Got to stage 5 about 42 mins in.

Some stuff didn't mention cuz not important but that's the gist. I was wiping hoardes with ease and if a boss was in there they'd get melted relatively fast. I had 10 tri tips because I was getting no good damage printers so I was just very desperate. Bought every drone I could find. There was a point in time where I could have bought runic lens from newt altar but I didn't because I didn't want to eat through all my green scrap approaching stage 4. Died to overloading grandparent after hitting mountain shrine twice, 100% on me I just kind of became complacent just because I was getting kind of bored with the poor single target damage.

[sweet ibex]

There should be some geodes throughout the bazaar you can break which will spawn a green portal.

[lavish jacinth]

If you do gilded coast, you should get a green portal

[lethal notch]

So, is Gilded Coast the one leading to False Son? And I assume Abandoned Aqueduct does not help with him, correct?

[sweet ibex]

Gilded coast is one method, yes. You will need the seed to unlock False Son anyways.

[jaunty furnace]

gilded coast can spawn a green portal at the end
also you literally need it for the item

[lethal notch]

Oh, it is the one you get from the gold portal? Amazing!

[lethal notch]

Is there a way to guarantee a green portal? I got everything needed. Just need the green portal now.

[boreal path]

(SPOILERS) where at the teleporter is the glass frog?

[maiden grove]

And yeah I do, aiming the reticle at the flier and then smacking. Took me a while to figure out because at first I thought jumping while swinging was the trick and then after that I was aiming above the enemy to try and arc it

[sweet ibex]

At the beginning where you spawn once Mithrix is killed.

[boreal path]

halcyon shrine

[lethal notch]

But I am already past the first section. Could not find it anywhere there.

[boreal path]

yeah but where there? i cant find it and im at the very start of comencement where i spawned.

[maiden grove]

bad rng sadly, good chance you'll have to loop

[boreal path]

^

[lethal notch]

How does one loop?

[sweet ibex]

Have you killed Mithrix?

[boreal path]

use the OUTER part of the big teleporter in stage 5

[jaunty furnace]

it will spawn if youre at a point where youre able to get on the path
looks like youre on stage 1-2 so it should definitely spawn

[boreal path]

yes

[sweet ibex]

It should be in the centre of the teleporter then.

[lethal notch]

I am lost.

[maiden grove]

1. On stage 5 interacting with the teleporter can align it with the planet, instead of going mithrix it sends you to stage 1.

2. Blue portl on stage 5 will take you to loop

3. Alloyed Collective pathway I believe allows you to loop if you go into the encrypted portal after beating boss

[thorn mural]

Hemorrhage vs bleed which is better?

[jaunty furnace]

just go to gilded coast!!! you need it either way

[lavish jacinth]

Hemorrhage

[lethal notch]

I do, but this is why I am worried to miss it. This is my one chance with really good items...

[lavish jacinth]

You will get a green portal if you go to gilded coast

[boreal path]

i got there... and i did it... but the tp waited until AFTER the planet exploded

[thorn mural]

Awesome, thanks! Why is it better btw?

[lavish jacinth]

Green portal will take you to false son stages

[lethal notch]

I hope you are right. So the left portal is Gilded Coast, correct?

[lavish jacinth]

Yeah

[lavish jacinth]

It's literally just the same debuff but stronger, it does more damage, lasts MUCH longer, and resets duration when a new stack is added like bleed does

Bleed is 240% damage over 3 seconds, hemorrhage is 2000% over 15 seconds

[lavish jacinth]

Even if you somehow don't get the green portal from gilded coast, you can spawn a guaranteed one in the bazaar by finding 3 hidden geodes and breaking them

[snow spire]

can anyone carry me to drifter bro my skill issue is insane

[lethal notch]

I got both! Now, all I got to do is win this and kill the boss.

[scenic whale]

erm, what happens if you get kicked out of the matrix place? Can you reenter it in the same run?

[cobalt quiver]

Is operator's M1 hitscan or projectile? I cant hit the dragons from faraway on distance roost

[last field]

iirc no you cant

[scenic whale]

Not even 5 seconds ago I figured it out! if you get kicked out, you can do the false son boss and reenter through a given portal from there

[last field]

might be the same when killing AWU as well, since it also spawns a portal after the tp is done

[scenic whale]

ohhhhhhh, that would make sense

thank you for the help anyway

[last field]

yw, i dont really have that much knowledge about how computational exchange works since i never got spex angry

[scenic whale]

I have more times than I can count

[thorn mural]

Oh wow haha thank you🫡

[lethal notch]

If I got another gold portal within a green portal map that I got from a gold portal, will that lead to another green portal which will lead me to the False Son fight with two Seeds? Does that even count for the False Son character unlock?

[thorn mural]

Any idea what collective affix buff does?

[lethal notch]

To clarify, I first found a gold portal in the bazaar, when I beat that gold portal, it spawned a green one. I finished the green portal and I found another gold portal there as well, so that would be a second Seed if I went in, correct? Now, will it give me two Seeds and will these two count toward the False Son unlock?

[lavish jacinth]

You only need one seed, it would probably be better if you just kept going through green portals. Having more than one seed can actually make the fight harder

[lethal notch]

Just learned that from someone on Reddit stating that they went from Multiplayer.

[lavish jacinth]

20% cooldown reduction and a bubble shield like the collective elites have

[lethal notch]

Is there a reason you lose health over time in the False Son boss fight? I was in the air the whole time and my health was constantly dropping. Feel like garbage dying to god knows what.

[thorn mural]

Oh ok, thanks! What does bubble shield do?

[mellow crystal]

Just to be sure, you are aware of the laser attack, yes?

[lethal notch]

There were no laser attacks in stage one that I could see because I was way high up in the air freezing the hell out of Son.

The one time I beat him was because I had a shit ton of healing from medkit (x5), the one that gives you shield on ability cooldowns, a negate damage one and more. This time though, I had damage with minor healing, so I could not keep up with the DoT that kept draining my health in stage one. I kept looking around me but could not figure it out.

[thin jasper]

Btw, I just saw a video talking about crafting recipes but I'm confused as to how does crafting even happen????? I tried searching on youtube how to craft but there were no results. Can someone explain?

[jaunty furnace]

do you have dlc3

[thin jasper]

Yes and I even already beat the boss in the newest stage. The wing one or however it's called

[jaunty furnace]

the next stage has it

[thin jasper]

????

[jaunty furnace]

computational exchange

look around the back of spex

and to the left

[thin jasper]

Aaaah, I just tried putting the decrypted or something thing into it, I didn't know it was for crafting

[jaunty furnace]

thats not it

[thin jasper]

No, it is what I'm talking about. The panel right besides immortal eye in the computational thing

It just threw the item back at me, so I left

[jaunty furnace]

yes thats not for crafting

[thin jasper]

????? Where is it then?

[jaunty furnace]

thats for giving The Enemy to spex

[jaunty furnace]

.

[thin jasper]

What is spex?

[jaunty furnace]

the eye guy

[thin jasper]

Aaaaaaaah

So, crafting is behind the eye. What is the front then for?

[jaunty furnace]

he wants something from you

[thin jasper]

:V
Don't get it

[jaunty furnace]

he wants you to decrypt the thing you got from wing and give it to him

[lavish jacinth]

you use the crafting station to decrypt the cerebellum thing, then give it to the eyeball

[mellow crystal]

Hm
Any artifacts, any debuffs you noticed above your health bar?

[lavish jacinth]

but there's a bunch of other stuff you can craft too

and there's some other useful stuff in the area if you look around

[thin jasper]

I dunno, I didn't pay attention

[thin jasper]

How do you even decrypt it?

[jaunty furnace]

combine it with a key/sentry key/prison matrix

at the crafting station

[mellow crystal]

No idea then
Lunar ruin DOES do a little damage over time but it's only two ticks and you'd usually die to the stuff that applies it before you die to the dot so shrug

Ofc fs can also dash up to you in p1 but that's noticeable and not fast enough to be mistakable for dot

[lavish jacinth]

I think you replied to the wrong message lol

[thin jasper]

????? What are you even talking about?

[thin jasper]

Yeah

[mellow crystal]

Ohhhh

Yeah wrong one

[trim lynx]

lol

[mellow crystal]

Any artifacts, or debuffs you noticed above your health bar?

[thin jasper]

Btw, how does prison matrix even work??? I tried pressing on it, but nothing happened even after I beat the boss

It just showed the red x

[mellow crystal]

You have to enter the other doors

[jaunty furnace]

there are rooms that have opened for you to explore

[lethal notch]

I wish I checked for that, but nope. And no, no artifacts.

[mellow crystal]

Get an item from there

[thin jasper]

Aaaaaaaaaaah

[mellow crystal]

Yeah stumped then, like I was rambling about earlier

[rare hare]

does anyone know how to get to old commencement in the current game version? Does the Powerfully Slow Moon mod still work?

[celest field]

Is shrimp or atg better for proc chains?

[lavish jacinth]

atg is better at starting them but shrimp is better at adding damage to them, so either one kinda works.
but if you've got a clover then atg is better

[celest field]

I only have the lens rn, luck is kicking my ass

[lavish jacinth]

no idea about the mod, but I'm pretty sure you can still get to old commencement with debugtoolkit. I think the stage name is literally just "moon" but you can use scene_list to check iirc

[jaunty furnace]

debugtoolkit set_scene moon

[rare hare]

how do I use the debugtoolkit? Is it a mod?

[lavish jacinth]

wouldn't it be next_stage moon? or does either one work

[jaunty furnace]

yea

adds more commands to the console

[jaunty furnace]

no idea

[rare hare]

I heard it broke after SOT tho with parts missing, Im assuming that has not been fixed?

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, last I checked it's pretty broken

[rare hare]

The mod i named lets you set a chance for the old moon to appear in your runs which sounds fun but hasnt been updated for 2 years

[lavish jacinth]

they don't really have a reason to fix it

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, it doesn't even show up if you search it on thunderstore, it's probably just abandoned

[rare hare]

Unfortunate
Any idea if there is a way to revert to an older version in which the map still works?

[rare hare]

oh i found it through thunderstore right now but yeah, last updated 2 years ago

[lavish jacinth]

oh it did show up, I missed it lol

[rare hare]

xeah its surprisingly far down

[rare hare]

I havent played the game on release, I would like to try the old moon sometime so if there would be a way to actually play through it, thatd be amazing

[lavish jacinth]

you would have to downpatch to an older version

[jaunty furnace]

does debugtoolkit not work or what

[lavish jacinth]

it works, but the old version of the moon map is broken and missing a bunch of assets

[rare hare]

It does, the map is just broken as far as i know

[jaunty furnace]

okay

[rare hare]

Damn he took that personal

[lavish jacinth]

I forgot the thing doesn't like steam links lol

[rare hare]

If u wanna u could drop it into my dms?

[lavish jacinth]

was gonna post a guide on how to downpatch, but you can find it easily if you just look up how to do it

I've never done it myself though

[rare hare]

Alright, ill just look it up. Thanks a lot! :)
Ill try debugtoolkit first tho just to check it out

[grave solar]

whats the best red item for void fiend

[lavish jacinth]

any of the usual good ones etc., plus any sots reds

networked suffering is also good I think

[rare hare]

Is spare drone parts still good after the nerf?

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, totally

the nerf was mostly just to compensate for drone AI actually being good, so it evens out

if anything it can become even better with drone combiners

[rare hare]

Alright, was just wondering

Not too informed on the new DLC and its changes, esp things like drone combiners made me wonder if its generally worth combining drones

[lavish jacinth]

it absolutely is

[jaunty furnace]

just because something was nerfed doesnt instantly mean that its useless

[rare hare]

True
I was just asking if it still holds up

[lavish jacinth]

it increases drone stats exponentially and buffs their skills https://riskofrain2.wiki.gg/wiki/Drone_Combiner_Station

[rare hare]

got it, ty

[celest field]

If I scarp infusion do I keep my health?

[lavish jacinth]

no

[jaunty furnace]

if you have 11 infusions you can scrap 10 of them and youll keep all of the health

youll only lose infusion health if all of your stacks are gone

[hard path]

can someone please tell me what killed me here

[grave solar]

will there be another dlc?

[lavish jacinth]

it looks like something hit you and then you died to warped echo's DoT

wecho is super buggy atm, it doesn't work with armor or osp at all so you can actually end up taking MORE damage when you have it

[hard path]

nice man

[lavish jacinth]

yeah it sucks

[hard path]

also im pretty sure warped echo proc'd before the second image i think

[west monolith]

Btw where would u rate wecho, I still find myself taking it personally

[lavish jacinth]

we don't know, but the devs haven't said there won't be one

[hard path]

solus heart really needs a nerf or i might just be coping hard

[west monolith]

Activating 93% bloods with watches is great

[hard path]

im like 70% justified

[lavish jacinth]

when it actually works properly I'd say it's decent, but in its current state it can literally be a run-ender

[grave solar]

if there will be another dlc i wonder what its gonna be about

[west monolith]

I think for non looped runs theyre fine tho

I think the ignoring armor thing has always been an issue since before yet I never noticed it so

[lavish jacinth]

nah, it's supposed to take armor into account

[hard path]

in my experience looping is required for solus heart

[lavish jacinth]

it worked fine after sots phase 3 and then they broke it in the memory update

[west monolith]

Yea it is but what I'm saying is I didnt notice that its supposed to personally so wecho isnt rly bad to me
And I was always aware about it not working with osp

[west monolith]

Oh so its 2nd most recent update, maybe thats why I didnt notice it

[lavish jacinth]

brass contraption lore dlc

[hard path]

when do you think they'll do a patch

[grave solar]

i hope its ANYTHING but hermit crabs

i hate hermit crabs with my whole heart

[lavish jacinth]

I find it super noticeable when I have opals or other sources of armor, I just take massive chunks of damage from stuff that I could've shrugged off if my armor actually worked

and since it ignores osp it's possible for echo's damage pool to exceed your healthbar, normally osp caps damage to 90% of your health

[lavish jacinth]

probably early december

at the earliest

consoles have a verification period for updates that takes a couple of weeks iirc

[celest field]

Mmm so far when I scap it scraps the whole stack, does it cap at 10?

[jaunty furnace]

gut says it was an orb

[jaunty furnace]

yea

[hard path]

what orb i dont see anything

[lavish jacinth]

also seriously, I know everyone wants the red plane dlc but like, what the actual fuck is the lore for brass contraptions

they're never mentioned anywhere outside of their own log iirc, there's no explanation for what they are or who built them, they don't belong to any family of monsters, they just exist

although if they ever do get a family added, it should totally be that lamppost thing that was cut from ror1

[hallow stratus]

hey guys I'm trying to go to commencement after finishing sky meadow but it keeps looping. I'm sure I didn't change the destination, but in both loops, I've activated the portal to bazaar between time. Is that what's causing me to loop??

[jaunty furnace]

yea

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, if you take any portal besides the teleporter, you'll loop

[hallow stratus]

sad i thought the first time i looped was because I changed it and didn't know lol

[west monolith]

Ok I think I'm stupid, I've always taken opal with echo so it seems I never notice what happens if I just have opal to tank
Perhaps I've just been subjecting myself to takinf more dmg without knowing

[brisk crypt]

Is Solus Heart bugged atm so it doesn't show up in the logbook?

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, it always appears locked until you actually get the logbook

[celest field]

Of one of my void allies dies can I get hit with void death?

[lavish jacinth]

yup

[celest field]

So this item is terrible and trash got it

[lavish jacinth]

I mean, it kinda is, but not entirely because of that lol

[celest field]

I can’t get rid of it

[grave solar]

how does oddly shaped opal work

[lavish jacinth]

if you're out of danger (meaning you haven't taken damage for 7 seconds or more) you gain a shield that gives you 100 armor per stack, so the next time you do get hit, the damage will be reduced by half

(X armor = X% effective health)

[grave solar]

thx

[west monolith]

How did I not know this simple formula wtf this is real good info

[wintry crag]

What’s wrong with Nkuhana’s opinion and why do people not like the item

Or deem it as a bad red item

[primal vector]

Because its damage is tied to your max health. And your max health is quickly overgrown by enemies's health

Basically, people doent like it because it deals low damage

I still find it fun to find

[wintry crag]

What about Happiest Mask?

I see a lot of people dislike that item but I don’t get why

[outer skiff]

yo peeps, what is a simple way to get teh Glorious Battle achievement?

also how the hell are you supposed to get multikill?

[dusky raven]

It has a pretty low chance to get a ghost so usually out of a crowd of enemies you get like 1 maybe 2 if you are lucky and there’s no guarantee it’ll be an impactful enemy it could just be a beetle

Not to mention you get no ghosts if you have like 25 drones

And, unlike other allies, your ghosts won’t draw aggro on account of being ghosts

[wintry crag]

Wait really? How come

[dusky raven]

Ally limit

[wintry crag]

And how much stronger does a drone get from being tier 1 to tier 2

[wintry crag]

Wow I never knew there was one

[dusky raven]

Drones are allowed to exceed this but then that means no other allies will spawn

[dusky raven]

The stats combine plus usually a 50% skill upgrade

The wiki has it listed out pretty well

[lavish jacinth]

get tp to 99%, jump off a cliff to get to 1hp, then run back and finish the tp before your health regenerates

[lavish jacinth]

and multikill just kinda happens eventually, artifact of swarms helps

can use to group up enemies and make it easier

[stable tusk]

does stone flux pauldron affect loader's guantlet movement speed/ damage while on grappling hook?

[lavish jacinth]

nope, grapple movement is unaffected by your speed stat, so you'll only really lose damage if you're on the ground punching from a standstill

[modern dome]

does lysate cell do anything with mul-t?

[lavish jacinth]

with retool no, with powermode it lets you use the skill more but it's not really useful

[modern dome]

ouch

[grave solar]

I hate lysate cell it's literally useless for me

[lavish jacinth]

it depends on survivor

[prisma sonnet]

can i use Trophy Hunter's Tricorn for the soulus wing?

[lavish jacinth]

no

[prisma sonnet]

thanks
could've been funny tho

[floral reef]

playin 3 player ror2 and had ALL drones just die at once is this a known bug or?

[lavish jacinth]

any idea what they died to? could've been something like a void reaver

this would be the first I've heard of drones randomly dying for no reason but there are things that could wipe out a ton of drones at once

[steady swallow]

what is supposed to be drifter smain source of dmg in late stages and bosses

[lavish jacinth]

use primary and utility to get junk, then spam secondary for damage

[steady swallow]

are we supposed to stay close and hit with primary or are we supposed to just wait out the cooldown for the cube

for bosses

[lavish jacinth]

depends on situation but hitting them with your primary is preferable if you can get some hits in safely

[steady swallow]

like for mithrix it sounds hard to be able to get hits in since his hammer and dashes hits so fast

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, dealing with single targets is definitely one of drifters' weaknesses, having enemies around makes it easier to get junk out of them with repossess

[steady swallow]

is this just like a skill issue rhat imma have to get good at then

[lavish jacinth]

yeah probably

[steady swallow]

sounds good

[wild lotus]

Is the artifact device in stage 5 disabled in eclipse?

[lavish jacinth]

yep

[wild lotus]

Ty

[outer skiff]

im trying to get the achievement where you need to carry five lunar items at once and i thought i could cheese it by buying all five in the bazaar but it doesnt work so, do i need to get all the lunar items legitimately or what?

okay nobody is answring so imma

[primal vector]

It should work

[outer skiff]

im pretty sure its because i had that one item that you give to other enemies to debuff them

[primal vector]

That one is new, so if there is an issue, it makes sense that it would come from it

[outer skiff]

makes sense, oh well, until next run

[marble magnet]

Hey is there a limit to what a extractor an extract?

[carmine wolf]

Whenever I play with my friend, the game ends very quickly. How can it go on forever?

[lavish jacinth]

ends as in losing connection, or as in you win the run?

[carmine wolf]

I'm winning

[lavish jacinth]

in that case you need to loop
there are a few ways to do it, the main way is just realigning the prongs around the primordial teleporter before activating it. You can also just leave through any portal besides the main teleporter

[carmine wolf]

I'm trying right now

[wispy blade]

What survivors should I try unlocking next? I have bandit,captain,mul-t and every starter character from the dlcs

[crimson prairie]

is there a way to turn off that eyesore purple filter you get from Brain stalks? options or mods anything
preferably without affecting other screen effects

[lavish jacinth]

there should be a setting for it somewhere, "disable distortion effects" or something like that. I forget what tab it's under though

[livid wedge]

It's under the first tab

General or whatever

[lavish jacinth]

loader and merc are pretty fun, and relatively easy to get

[crimson prairie]

would that turn off other screen effects?

[molten pebble]

are thr Tc280 drones guarenteed in maps they spawn after the AC update?

[wispy blade]

What about the void thing or chef?

[lavish jacinth]

only the one in solutional haunt, the others are random

[crimson prairie]

i dont know what kind of effects its referring to

[lavish jacinth]

it turns off the ones that really mess with the screen, like brainstalks or spinel tonic

[crimson prairie]

ahh okay, thank you so much

[lavish jacinth]

chef is cool, void fiend is a pain to unlock and imo he's kinda boring to play

[wispy blade]

What the easiest way to get chef?Is it just luck?(I read up on how to unlock it already)

[lavish jacinth]

it's worth getting all of them eventually though

[lavish jacinth]

artifact of command

but otherwise just luck, yeah. But progress on the unlock carries over between runs

[wispy blade]

Does the ||thing where I put the items in always spawn?||

[livid wedge]

For chef? Yes

His little restaurant is always open in reformed altar

[molten pebble]

how do you play chef i tried playing him felt boring to me, is it better to hold the m1 or spam it

[brittle junco]

what does lt. droneboy do? the description is kinda vague

[lavish jacinth]

better to hold for a short time, the cleavers do more damage if they've been spinning in the air for a second

he's also more fun with his alt special imo

[lavish jacinth]

nothing, he's just a filler drone so that box of dynamite isn't useless if you get the item but don't have any drones

same with colonel droneman and SDP

[molten pebble]

yeah saw on wiki his slt special having some cool tech gonna try to unlock that and see how fun chef is then

[brittle junco]

Ohh so thats how he appears randomly in my operator runs

thanks a bunch i was completely clueless on what he did

[warm fog]

every single time I open my game it never plays music anymore and it doesn't play the cutscene. All other audio is fine just no music and it's pretty upsetting. It also boots up like that and makes me make a new profile every single time I want to play so there's just a list of unused profiles.

[lavish jacinth]

open up the game files and go to risk of rain 2 data > config > config.cfg
look for splash_skip and intro_skip, and set them both to 0. If you've got any mods that skip the intro, get rid of them before running the game again

there's also a second config file at C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\userdata[Number]\632360\remote\UserProfiles, where your saves are located. You might have to do the same for that one, it seems like changing the first one doesn't always work for some people so you gotta do both

[grave solar]

how many beads of fealty do i need to get into whole moment

[lavish jacinth]

one

[lethal sequoia]

Ive seen someone do a run where enemies have items (in particular they fought ||Solus Wing|| and it had multiple Items including Dios so it revived) is that a mod or some kind of artifact?

[lavish jacinth]

that's artifact of evolution

[iron wasp]

Does anyone have a good build for operator?

[jaunty furnace]

hes kindof a jack of all trades

[brittle junco]

drones alot of drones

[jaunty furnace]

hes like a better commando thats also very good at burst damage ()

[grave solar]

is the TC-280 still bad

[lavish jacinth]

no, it's good now

[abstract oyster]

yo i need help
why tf does it say one void field enemy left but theres no arrow to show where it is
is it bugged or something

[jovial ivy]

How does artifact of rebirth work?

[abstract oyster]

everytime you tp to another stage you are reborn as a different survivor

https://riskofrain2.fandom.com/wiki/Artifact_of_Rebirth

[lavish jacinth]

that's metamorphosis

[lavish jacinth]

you give an item to the rebirth altar, then on the next run where you use the artifact, you'll start the run with that item. It can only store an item once, so if you wanna use it again you have to use the altar again

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, that's a known bug

not much you can do about it unfortunately

[abstract oyster]

🙁

thanks for letting me know tho i appreciate it

[cold hatch]

this may be dumb to ask but, does merf actually hit the target itself or only those aronud who get hit by the little balls

[split arch]

does accepting to solus wing count as a win for the purpose of getting the monsoon skin?

[lavish jacinth]

yep, any victory on monsoon counts

[lavish jacinth]

only the fireballs deal damage, but they have an AoE so they're pretty likely to hit the initial target as well

[cold hatch]

gotcha, I;ve never noticed but do they explode on ground contact or just enemy contact

[lavish jacinth]

both

[cold hatch]

mainly wonddering if they;re any good for mithrix

alright, ty

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, it definitely is

[cold hatch]

awesome

[wispy shore]

does anyone know anything about alloy hunter spamming the laser attack and not using any other attacks/is there any way to prevent it?

[frosty reef]

Are you on eclipse 7+?

[wispy shore]

yeah eclipse 7

[frosty reef]

Yeah it's due to the eclipse 7 modifier. If the laser attack had a longer base cooldown we wouldn't have this problem but it's pretty annoying. You can run around hunter's feet and the laser homing can't keep up if you rotate around it

[wispy shore]

ahh i see that makes sense, ty for the tip on how to dodge too

[split arch]

awesome, ty

[heavy gorge]

Let's say you have a watch. Now let's say your items are disabled by the invalidator. Now let's say your health drops under 25% BUT gets replenished before your items return. Is your watch safe?

[lavish jacinth]

I haven't tested that specific interaction but your watch SHOULD be safe

watch specifically only checks your health when you take damage, so if you were to pick one up while below 25% then it wouldn't break unless something hit you before you healed. I assume the same applies here

and same is true for elixir iirc

[heavy gorge]

Watches are so cool. Their damage buff applies after everything else, right?

[lavish jacinth]

yep, same as other multipliers

multipliers are always the last step in the damage calculation

[lavish jacinth]

also just realized I misread what the question was but I think the answer is still correct lol

[heavy gorge]

Is MulT the tankiest survivor as far as base stats go?

[lavish jacinth]

Heretic has the highest HP, but Mul-T has the highest of any normal survivor

[west monolith]

mul-t does have 12 base armor while some others have 20 tho

[lavish jacinth]

Mul-T still has the highest effective base HP with armor taken into account

[heavy gorge]

He's a healthy boy

[west monolith]

hmm, interesting

[lavish jacinth]

False son is a close second though with 180 hp, no base armor but he can get some with his passive

it gets weird with survivors having temporary armor but I'm pretty sure mult consistently wins out, although just barely

Void fiend can have 220 effective HP at lv1 while in his corrupt form, since he gains 100 armor while corrupted. But MulT has 224 eHp with 200hp and 12 armor

[drifting pewter]

did they ever fix the main issues with seekers of the storm? i've been thinking of getting it it's almost 70% off rn

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, sots got fixed like, half a year ago lol

[drifting pewter]

LMAO yeah the last time i talked about risk of rain 2 was when seekers came out, everybody said hot doodoo garbage and then now i just got back into it, thanks dawg

[jaunty furnace]

most of its content got revamped

there were like 4 different versions razorwire on day 1 lmao

[potent briar]

on loader should i take molten perforator or little disciple

[livid wedge]

Disciple

Probably

[lavish jacinth]

perf is hard to pass up

[iron hornet]

does false son boss 1 shot ??

[lavish jacinth]

he can

[iron hornet]

every time i died to him he instakills in phase 1, is this just game design

[lavish jacinth]

I mean, he can oneshot you in the same way almost any enemy can oneshot you

he's capable of doing a lot of damage but you can also avoid it

[woven quarry]

Is there any way to loop after activating the primordial portal my friend forgot to shift it

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, the artifact portal is still usable

[woven quarry]

Where’s that at?

[lavish jacinth]

if you're on sky meadow it's under the map, on helminth hatchery it's at the very top

[woven quarry]

I found it

[lone depot]

can I ask technical questions about game here or is there other channel for that

[lavish jacinth]

you can ask, dunno if we'll have an answer

[lone depot]

is there a way to run own dedicated server, as of now? last commit since 21st november seems to be completely removing executable, not sure if its depricated though

the reason for me to get a dedicated server is because steam servers are extremely laggy at times, making multiplayer gameplay unbearable

[lavish jacinth]

from what I've heard, dedicated servers do seem to be broken atm, yeah

[lone depot]

the executable is completely missing it aint just broken 😆

[lavish jacinth]

well, broken for lack of a better term lol

[bronze ledge]

hello guys. im new to the game and i had a quick question. whats the point of the game?

[lavish jacinth]

I don't know much more than that though unfortunately, I saw a thread for it in #1440408911604879511 but it didn't seem to get much attention

[lone depot]

couldn't find anymore info on net except some info about hosting w/docker on linux machines (irrelevant to the subject itself)

guess I aint playing ror2 with friends

🐡

[lavish jacinth]

there isn't really an overall goal other than trying to unlock everything

[bronze ledge]

oh 😕 okay well ty

[lavish jacinth]

it's a roguelike, that's kinda just how they are

[bronze ledge]

sorta like balatro in a way? obv two very different games but i loved balatro

[lavish jacinth]

same genre, more or less

the idea is that it's replayable and slightly different each time, there isn't a singular way to "win"

[bronze ledge]

yeah i kinda picked up on that after my second run but i was just sort of looking for a bigger reason to play other than to just unlock everything haha

i do appreciate the help tho

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, the reason to play is just that the gameplay is fun

[bronze ledge]

true true. well ty for the insights

[broken vessel]

is there a way to get to the final boss of alloyed collective even if i|| accidentally hurt spex so much it now wants me to go away?||

[lavish jacinth]

you can get another encrypted portal by killing alloy worship unit

[broken vessel]

oh really?

[lavish jacinth]

but the node things stop spawning if you've been there once already

yeah

[broken vessel]

so my run is not over yet? i just need to kill AWU and i can find ||spex|| again?

[lavish jacinth]

yep

[lyric palm]

So does eclipse light make lights out worth using again? Or is it still just a "just pick desperado" kinda situation

[lavish jacinth]

nah, desperado still better

lights out still has its main issue, which is that it's too hard for it to consistently kill on later stages

and it's a very short-term benefit when it actually does kill

[jaunty furnace]

bandit already has low cooldowns

[errant patio]

Hello, what is this ?

[lavish jacinth]

#ror2-game-questions message

[errant patio]

Yes, but what does it do ? Is it just there to indicate that you have bombs on drones ?

[errant patio]

Thanks a lot !

[jovial ivy]

How does the abandoned aqueduct puzzle work

[lavish jacinth]

there are two pressure plates hidden around the map that you have to press at the same time

easiest way to do it in singleplayer is with engineer turrets or captain beacons, but you can also use loader's pylon, , or rolling a clay pot onto it

[outer skiff]

Quick question, does the 2 wedded elder lumerians in aqueduct despawn if I already completed the teleporter?

[lavish jacinth]

nope

[outer skiff]

Okay so I should be able to complete the teleporter then do the achievement correct?

[violet mulch]

I hear Rex is really broken if you learn him but there's a very noticeable learning curve here

any tips would be appreciated

also I just unlocked Acrid and the void dude so if there's anything I need to know about them that'd be nice, I know the latter plays quite differently to most other characters

[civic lotus]

with acrid dont use him as a melee survivor

[lavish jacinth]

idk where you heard that, rex is honestly kinda whatever

[civic lotus]

void fiend is broken

[lavish jacinth]

you can absolutely use acrid as a melee survivor if you're good at him lol

[civic lotus]

late game its better to just use the projectile moves

[violet mulch]

yeah looks like it

[lavish jacinth]

the big thing with void fiend is just managing his corruption

[violet mulch]

idk I just kinda looked it up it seems people are pretty torn on him sucking or being goated but hard to learn

[civic lotus]

just spam R and when u need corruption just dont spam it (so hard to manage)

[lavish jacinth]

in uncorrupt form you wanna use your R to hover around 75% so you can heal or go corrupt if you need to, and avoid healing item that are hard to control like wungus or medkit (slug is fine though, regen doesn't count)

[civic lotus]

also if u pick up corrupted items with viend you get 2.5% increase in corruption

[lavish jacinth]

crit chance is also good, you gain 2% corruption whenver you crit
(which also makes scythe a kinda decent way to heal in corrupt form, since the flat healing won't outweight the corruption gained from a crit)

[lavish jacinth]

I didn't say it was hard, it's just his main mechanic lmao

[lavish jacinth]

that's pretty much the rex fanbase lol
he's very much a "love it or hate it" survivor, and usually people lean towards hating him

[civic lotus]

if you heal you remove corruption, when you take damage you get corruption

[latent bane]

I would not say rex is broken he's one of the hardest to get good runs on imo

[civic lotus]

rex primary is kinda satisfying icl

[lavish jacinth]

I beg to differ, i can't stand it lol

[latent bane]

with like 3 syringes i really like his primary, the tracking is pretty engaging

[lavish jacinth]

Rex's main gameplay loop is basically grouping up enemies with utility and R and then spamming m1 and m2 at them

[latent bane]

i liked playing rex until i started his eclipse climb, thats actual torture

[violet mulch]

same brah

acrid is pretty cool so far

not my favourite or anything but decent

though I'm playing without artifact of command on

so idk what an ideal run looks like

[cinder pasture]

i know depending what spawns mean other stuff will or might not spawn.

i got lucky but only 4 chest actually spawned on my stage 1?

is that normal if you get good items?

[lavish jacinth]

the items you get has no impact on the number of interactables that spawn, apart from large chests using more credits than small ones

either that stage had a shitload of printers or shrines or whatever, or you missed stuff

[cinder pasture]

i saw 1 printer and the underground wasnt open

[lavish jacinth]

verdant has almost as many credits as a stage 3 map iirc, ain't no way it only had like 6 things on it

[cinder pasture]

could it have been bugged. im use to getting nearly 15 items off verdant

[lavish jacinth]

if it's a bug then it's either mod-related or entirely new

[wispy shore]

both a lunar pod and cleansing pool probably took up a lot of credits

considering the pearl

[cinder pasture]

is berserkers pauldrons good on acrid or should not be prioritized

[lavish jacinth]

ehhhh it's kinda mid

[wispy shore]

scrappers, shrines and printers also take up the same resource the game uses to spawn chests and stuff so there might have just been a few of those

[lavish jacinth]

lunar pods cost 25 and cleansing pools only cost 5

verdant has 280 credits

[wispy shore]

o i thought they were both 25 my bad

[cinder pasture]

i also didnt find a newt alter if that matters.

[lavish jacinth]

nope

[kindred herald]

Item Scrap, Green

[cinder pasture]

what?

[wispy shore]

its best use is as scrap

[regal cobalt]

Has anyone asked gearbox about crossplay plans? I have hope now that the code bases wete merged

[lavish jacinth]

I have actually been getting some slight use out of pauldron against solus wing since it spams destructible projectiles, it'd be hard to make that work as acrid though

[lavish jacinth]

they've said that it's pretty unlikely iirc, at least not any time soon

[cinder pasture]

does acrid benefit from brittle crown?

[lavish jacinth]

not particularly

[cinder pasture]

do people like hellfire tinture

i thought people really liked one of the lunar equip

[lavish jacinth]

I think so, it does a lot of damage and the self-damage is manageable as long as you don't take ignition tank

tonic is the one people really like, but only because of the infinite tonic strat

[wispy shore]

its especially good with razorwire

[lavish jacinth]

it's also like, the only really good use for planula

[cinder pasture]

wow that almost one shot me. not using that again

[wispy shore]

armour is very handy to have with it

most lunars are specifically made to be risk reward

[cinder pasture]

im using acrid iwth 76% dr

wait. brittle crown + pennies?

inf coins?

[opal ice]

Nope quite

[wispy shore]

i mean crown is inf coins anyway if you dont get hit

[neat void]

friends start mithrix - i spawn as tc drone, spawn inside the map, and then stage 2 chimera spawn outside of the mithrix arena

[opal ice]

Inf exp if you have standing solitude or whatever it’s called

[lyric palm]

Essence of heresy on operator, yay or nay?

[opal ice]

Nay

[cinder pasture]

does acrid poison proc things like atg or shrips?

[opal ice]

Nope

[cinder pasture]

when you use the r ability and it spreads does each spread have a chane to trigger?

[wispy shore]

yeah

just not the damage over time it gives

[brittle shuttle]

Yay

[cinder pasture]

thats pretty satisfying

[brittle shuttle]

Operator has a crazy proc rate and anything you deem unworthy you can eradicate at any moments notice

Same reason essence is busted on commando

“I dont like this guy” 20k damage blast

[lyric palm]

Okay for some reason after getting to the next stage i stopped applying ruin

[wispy blade]

How do I leave ||Computational Exchange||?

[lavish jacinth]

||either decrypt the cerebellum using the wandering chef and give it to spex, or leave through the portal near where you entered||

[regal cobalt]

Damn fr? When was this

[lavish jacinth]

it was a while ago but I don't think anything's changed afaik

I might have a screenshot of it, hang on

[cinder pasture]

does poison + guillotine = death or will it stop just before? or not trigger it?

[lavish jacinth]

yea, it'll instakill the elite once it hits the threshold

[real elbow]

is the new boss lowkey hard or am i just ass

[cinder pasture]

the walls are the annoying part (if you are talking about the final one)

[lavish jacinth]

they're pretty difficult

[cinder pasture]

i find mobility is the key to the fight

[regal cobalt]

Thats 2 years ago and pre-code merge for pc and console

We need an update

[lavish jacinth]

I think if they were planning to do it any time soon, we would probably know

like, it's probably the most requested feature for the game

[regal cobalt]

An update on their stance would ne nice

Im debating on getting it on pc but I doubt my laptop can run it and I already have a ton of progress on xbox so

Weird spot

[lavish jacinth]

well, you can at least use mods or save-editing to get your progress back on PC, but yeah that's assuming it's able to run at all lol

[faint rose]

is there any way to get an item i can use to get exposed cerebellum if i dont have one and im already in computational exchange

[regal cobalt]

When is the next Q&A?

[lavish jacinth]

uhhhhhhh I don't think the gearbox team has ever done one lol

[lavish jacinth]

nope, I think the only way it could happen is if you're lucky enough to get a rusted key printer

[faint rose]

i have command artifact but its uncommon

[lavish jacinth]

then no

[near briar]

is it worth combining drones if i have drone parts?

[lavish jacinth]

absolutely

[unique mica]

What artifacts would make a good sandbox like mode

[lavish jacinth]

combined drones get exponentially better stats

[lavish jacinth]

command

[unique mica]

Alr

[lavish jacinth]

maybe also sac+swarms so you get more items, but mostly command

[faint rose]

wait

i have command artifact

[lavish jacinth]

oh wait yeah

[faint rose]

i can give one of my red items to the offering and itll turn back into a red command item

[lavish jacinth]

why would you give him a red

[faint rose]

orphaned core

[lavish jacinth]

just give him a white, rusted key works

[faint rose]

oh yea

[faint rose]

anyways does the run end when i beat solus heart

[lavish jacinth]

if you accept the offer then yes, but it keeps going if you reject

[faint rose]

i get a skin if i accept right

[lavish jacinth]

depends on survivor

[faint rose]

im using operator

[lavish jacinth]

operator doesn't have an AC skin, so it doesn't matter

[faint rose]

so if i accept ill just get nothing

[lavish jacinth]

(for future reference though, you can check the challenges section in the logbook if you're not sure)

[lavish jacinth]

you'll get the mastery skin if you're on monsoon, but that's it

[faint rose]

im not

ill prolly just continue then

[heavy gorge]

Yeah in that case accepting the offer is just a new way to end a game

[errant patio]

What is the green portal doing in this screenshot ? ||[right after killing false son)||

[lavish jacinth]

well it appears to be standing there, perhaps even menacingly

not sure what you're asking lol

[errant patio]

Because I don't know what it does ?

Do you know ?

[lavish jacinth]

it takes you back to normal stages

[errant patio]

Oh so it loops ? Okay thanks

i'd rather not today

[lavish jacinth]

it'd go to stage 4

[regal cobalt]

They should...how can we encourage one lol

[boreal path]

(spoilers) can ||mythrix|| or ||voidling|| be stunned?

[near briar]

mithrix can be frozen idk about voidling but neither can be stunned

[lavish jacinth]

can't freeze voidling

mithrix can also be rooted and black hole'd

[errant patio]

Does this give multiple white items, or is it just a way to get rid of a red one ?

[neat void]

its 3 of the white item iirc

[errant patio]

Okay thanks !

[echo flame]

how many achievements are related to completing 20 stages in a single run? I want to get the unlock for commando but i need to convince my friends

[lavish jacinth]

only one other one, the one for clover

[echo flame]

k thanks

[nova hound]

I don't know if this is true but after defeating false son, a virtual portal spawns if you wait a while, is this true?

[pale bramble]

How can i deal with an unkillable void infestor? I can't clear the void seed

[jovial ivy]

Whats a overloading work

[jaunty furnace]

50% of their health is replaced with shield and their attacks leave sticky bombs

if thats what you are asking

[jovial ivy]

Where do I find it

[jaunty furnace]

oh you mean worm?

[jovial ivy]

Yeah mb

[elfin moss]

Is there a reliable way to guarantee a trip to gilded coast in a run? I need a halcyon seed for...cheevo purposes.

[jaunty furnace]

usually spawns on stage 5's or abyssal

[jovial ivy]

Ok thanks

[jaunty furnace]

id recommend using monsoon

and dont rush

[elfin moss]

Play on Monsoon, or loop at least once

They show up VERY late

[jaunty furnace]

this applies to the whole game too 🐱

full looting is better

[elfin moss]

Yep. Barring specific achievement stuff, more loot is almost always better

[boreal path]

can we use ror2 music in videos?

[sturdy iris]

I beat the game for the first time what now?

[livid wedge]

Do it again

[jaunty furnace]

whatever you want
you have many things to unlock, and multiple difficulties to conquer

also damn thats not alot of items

[simple coyote]

does runald’s work with Op’s primary ricochet like it does bandit’s desperado

ie if the ice band damage kills it, it stacks desperado, but does that work to both trigger his ricochet and does it use that boosted total damage when ricocheting

[livid wedge]

No, it's only the total damage of the ricochet attack itself

[north hollow]

Can I still decrypt the cerebellum if I don’t have the prison matrix or keys

I didn’t go conduit canyon because I went straight from sirens call

[livid wedge]

A regular or void key would work

[sharp lodge]

hello everyone, me and my friend just got the game and are trying to play with each other, when he joins my lobby, once i load in the game he gets kicked out of the server, does anyone know the issue?

[dusky raven]

Obligatory turn off epic games cross play

[sharp lodge]

we have it off, should we do the opposite?

[pine tartan]

this might be a dumb question but can you come back to the computational exchange after looping?

[dusky raven]

Def keep it off, it breaks a lot of things

[dusky raven]

I have heard you can, but you can’t fight the Solus Wing again

I haven’t personally done it yet so take it with a grain of salt

[pine tartan]

gotcha, thank you!

[sharp lodge]

ok thanks, so basically there is nothing we can do?

[dusky raven]

If you have any VPNs I’ve heard they can mess up the p2p connection

[sharp lodge]

oh ok thanks for help

[abstract olive]

So I just escaped the moon on engineer but didnt get the achievement... I figure I will have to beat it again but it really sucks, is there anything besides beating it again with engineer that I can do?

[steady stone]

for the skin achievement? were you on monsoon?

[abstract olive]

fuh man I forgot

thanks for the clarification

[boreal path]

how do i find the convergence biome log

[echo flame]

What are the best item unlocks to commit a run to?

[simple coyote]

any core or any key pretty much

[simple coyote]

all of them, no?

[echo flame]

I mean more like which ones should I do first

[simple coyote]

if you’re new, don’t worry and just play the game, keep the unlocks in mind and if there’s any stragglers then clean up.

shouldn’t worry about order

[echo flame]

thanks

[simple coyote]

the unlocks are basically “play the game” anyway. it’s the character skill unlocks you gotta keep an eye on

[hollow field]

is there a list somewhere of everything that's buffed by the faulty conductor?

[simple coyote]

https://riskofrain2.wiki.gg/wiki/Faulty_Conductor#Notes

[hollow field]

silence between two strikes meaning just the electric little balls it spawns on hit or all hits while holding the aspect? either way seems extremely powerful

i didn't even consider electric boomerang either

[simple coyote]

I believe the initial hit also

[hollow field]

okay that's a much more comprehensive list than i had in mind this seems very strong

it is a hard item to come by so i haven't had the time to really use it

[simple coyote]

it’s nice but it’s usually just for the stat buff considering you don’t get those lightning stuff much. capacitor is probably the biggest one

[timber topaz]

hey whos the locked enemy in the logbook? i feel like ive killed everyone in the new dlc so im not sure who im missing

[simple coyote]

some of them you won’t really get as a result of playing normally might be (for items):

• opening the secret chamber in aqueducts
• print 7 times in a row
• fully charge teleporter without getting hit
• charge the teleporter at 10% hp (start it while under 10%)
• find n’kuhana’s altar
• complete stage 3 teleporter without healing the entire run (just applies to healing items. natural regen and slug won’t disqualify)
• complete a prismatic trial
• kill 20 hermit crabs with fall damage
• complete 20 stages in a single run (4 full loops) (best paired with commando’s skill unlock)
• 2 mountain shrines at once
• destroy 20 rocks at sky meadows
• use 8 newt altars
• open the secret chest on rallypoint

characters, and their skill unlocks are much more. specific. and secret. like “oh bring the secret fuel array to this secret location on a specific map” which like. I’m not gonna type out unlocking every character.
the logbook shows the unlock challenges for everything though, if it’s not already in the character UI.

[hollow field]

it's just ||solus heart||, mithrix has a similar bug before u get his log

[timber topaz]

oh okay thank you! its been so long since i got mithrixs log that i mustve forgotten

[livid wedge]

The teleporter one, you just need to be at 10% health at the end of the teleporter charge

Doesn't matter what your health is before

[simple coyote]

I thought it was 10% when you start it. that’s what worked for me

[livid wedge]

Pretty sure I got a screenshot of it happening the way I described

Because it was the final ps trophy so it screenshotted it

[left forge]

You unlock them by just playing the game, but I DO NOT recommend unlocking Nkuhana's. It's (currently) a dogshit damage item that needs a lot of healing to fire projectiles, and has a lower chance to proc items. is just that but better

[echo flame]

do people look down on you if you say you use artifact of the command?

[elfin moss]

I don't. Have fun however you want to

[left forge]

Kinda. It's boring as hell

[hollow field]

i hate playing w command but don't mind if anyone uses it

[visual anchor]

what is rejecting the offering and what is accepting

[hollow field]

stopping to pick items destroys the flow of the game and i can't really stand it anymore

as powerful as it may be

[left forge]

I unironically almost fell asleep in the middle of the day bc I played command. It's that boring

[elfin moss]

I generally don't use it except for going for certain achievements that are ungodly luck based, or if I just want to see what some insane item combo would do

[hollow field]

yea i also use it for annoying unlocks

but real runs i cannot

[simple coyote]

it’s a win button. what if every run was a god run, etcetc.
I do it for unlocks but otherwise I just play with the luck. that’s what a roguelike is for

[left forge]

Yea, I only use it for unlocks or just for the hell of it

[hot tangle]

Hello, sorry to bother you, but I'm having a problem with my game. I'm playing with a friend on hard mode (my English isn't great, sorry), and when we finish the game, I'm supposed to unlock the hard mode skin, but I don't get it, or sometimes I get it but lose it as soon as I restart the game. I don't understand why I'm getting this bug and I don't know what to do. Do you have any ideas to help me?

[echo flame]

though if you go to chef after that alloy fight you can give a bunch of hoppoo feathers and ignition tanks and get legendary items in return

[hollow field]

yea i mean u can do literally whatever u want

[sturdy iris]

What does the fuel array do

[hollow field]

i just can't really be asked to play with it anymore

[hollow field]

needed to unlock a survivor in abyssal depths, will kill you if you fall below 50% hp while holding it

doesn't do anything beyond that

[elfin moss]

Also...Speaking of PITA achievements...is there an easy way to force a trip to gilded coast?

[sturdy iris]

Ok i probably don't need it yet lol, im literally on my first run after beating the game for the first time

[simple coyote]

not necessarily

it only usually kills you

[hollow field]

i suppose lol

[elfin moss]

I need a halcyon seed, and I can't get the necessary altar or lunar seer to show up

[simple coyote]

just keep goin

[hollow field]

yea there's no way to

u just gotta hope it shows up on the seer or u run into an altar of gold

(or a halcyon shrine in stage 5 specifically)

[sturdy iris]

Welp i died anyways, wandering vagrant explosion kinda hard to avoid with captain

[elfin moss]

Yeah, cap's one of my favorite survivors, but you NEED mobility stuff on him or he moves like an anemic golem

for vagrant you pretty much have to play around cover the whole fight...or time a certain skill that's a nightmare and a half to even unlock

[kind trench]

Hey guys I had a quick question about a bug a friend of mine have, is it the right channel to ask it or is there anywhere better to ask about a bug ? ^^

[simple coyote]

diablo

[sturdy iris]

To be completely honest i don't even know what the hell im doing after 16 hours

[elfin moss]

Oh, that wasn't meant as an insult. I said it because unlocking Diablo Strike requires dealing the killing blow to the final boss with a supply pod drop

which is one of the worst unlocks to perform in the whole game

[sturdy iris]

Lol i didnt take it that way

im genuinely clueless about this game

[elfin moss]

...um...Okay. The most unexpected death I had in the game

False Son hit me with whatever weird attack makes your view go Sepiatone, so I didn't notice when ||the freaking Aurelionite I had to let it summon|| launched an orbital bombardment that came down after it died and gave me the unlock

So I won the fight, got my achievement, THEN DIED

So long story short, thanks for the help earlier. I got what I was looking for in the dumbest method in-game possible 😛

[cedar ether]

Is Rex skin 4 an accept or decline? Forgot to check

[frail temple]

accept

[cyan patrol]

you can use the logbook too btw

anyways I was playing a run with a friend, we were trying to get a solus invalidator on abandoned aqueduct and even after like 15 minutes one would just not spawn.

He didnt have Alloyed Collective, but I did and we were still getting items and stages from alloyed
are enemy spawns somehow limited to a certain number of enemies?

[stoic panther]

Quick query:
I am trying to get my friend Hunter's ballista, and were pretty sure he never took damage on the stage, but didn't get the achievement. I know I took some damage but I didn't think both players needed to not go below 100% health, but at the same time I don't know how much the wiki can be trusted. Does someone know the specifics?

[cyan patrol]

I have no clue how it works with co-op, if your trying to get it quickly though using artifact of glass/shaped glass can help with that, as long as your good enough to not get hit

[visual anchor]

is war bonds affected by icbm

[stoic panther]

yeah we had those (he didn't taked shaped but I did)

[stable stone]

you can try looping so you get enough power to clear maps without taking damage

[cyan patrol]

nah it doesnt sorry, just get loadza money

[visual anchor]

also, when rejecting the offering, what does that mean? I am not wanting to throw this run

killing the secret boss?

[cyan patrol]

hes gonna like kneel down and ask you to spare him
if you press e next to him you ACCEPT his offering
if you just damage him its a reject

[high forum]

it will be extremely obvious what accept vs reject means

[visual anchor]

so you have to kill the secret boss to see it?

[cyan patrol]

you will have to kill him either way

just at the very end theres a special thing

[visual anchor]

gotcha thats simple thank you sir

[cyan patrol]

as long as your not interacting with anything theres no way you should accidentally get the accept

[stoic panther]

its not the lack of power have, Its more the specifics one if everyone needs to stay above 100% health or just the huntress

[high forum]

shields count as health, so taking shield damage will negate achievement progress. try stacking anything that gives you barrier like

[stoic panther]

yeah we knew that, he didn't have any shield, only I did.

[high forum]

then he definitely got hit at some point 🤷🏽

you can try doing it on stage 8 or 13 though if you're down for a longer run. it can obviously be tricky on stage 3

[cyan patrol]

or lowkey just try and kill everything before you can kill it with lotsa glass

i dont think co-op has anything to do with the achievement, as long as the huntress themself doesnt go under 100%

[visual anchor]

do mechanical enemies as ghosts from happiest mask get affected by drone parts

[cyan patrol]

it does not though thats a pretty cool idea

[wintry crag]

I Lowkey used artifact of command and used that one item that when you kill an enemy you get barrier so even if I do get hit I’ll have barrier so I’ll be chilllin

Plus a tricorn for the boss

[simple coyote]

just mechanical allies. engi’s turrets get ‘em too

same with empathy cores and the drone equipment

and technically gummy mul-t (and other robot survivors) should, but not yourself, of course

[molten pebble]

i am trying to unlock alt secondary for chef and i have an ignition tank on me, does the stronger burn count for applying 20 stacks of burn on mithrix?

[cedar ether]

Oh I got one more quick question about the final boss of the DLC. He’s been giving me issues due to how much health he has. Am I doing something wrong or is this normal, is he an insane damage check, do people agree he needs a nerf?

[molten pebble]

yeah the solus enemies have a lot of armor so they can just tank a lot very easily, shooting those 3 eye/ cores things on its face is technically a weak point as it takes a decent chunk of hp when you take them out but even with that its still very tanky, i personally think they need a nerf in hp or something to take it down quicker

[hollow field]

is it possible to go back into computational exchange after leaving without beating the final boss? like if i went through conduit canyon can i go back from like the siren's call portal or false son portal for example

[hoary sedge]

yeah after you beat solus wing every digital portal takes you to exchange

[mossy marsh]

can online fix players play with steam players?

[coarse nimbus]

can the access node be found on the stage 3 that's in the sky with all the vines? Ive been here twice now and havent been able to find it either time

[echo flame]

is there any benefit to grabbing shatterspleen and tri tip daggers? (say I have 10 lensemaker glasses)

[coarse nimbus]

shatterspleen still does the explosion on death, regardless of if you have any crit or not. So it can still be helpful

[visual anchor]

can you go back to exchange if you accidentally got kicked out

[echo flame]

i thought shatterspleen only adds bleed to when you crit enemies?

[coarse nimbus]

It also causes an explosion if an enemy dies with any bleed on it

[visual anchor]

shatterspleed is separate from bleed

[cedar ether]

If they expect me to fight him for unlocks, I’d at the very least want it to be manageable. Feels like a pain, even on drizzle. All the boss needs is an HP nerf as each eye took forever for me to defeat even when I had an insane debuff build with deathmark on Rex…

Edit: death mark and shattering justice, so I had a massive armor depletion on the boss and it still took ages to eliminate the eyes only for me to get obliterated before beating

[coarse nimbus]

"Bleeding enemies explode on death for 400% (+400% per stack) damage, plus an additional 15% (+15% per stack) of their maximum health."

[true token]

Whats the difference between highlighted and no highlighted?

When it comes to dlcs

[echo flame]

is there a garunteed newt altar at stage 5?

[nocturne sierra]

theres one in the worm thing up on top in helmith hatchery, and youll always find one somewhere in sky meadow

[hollow field]

how long does the virtual portal in false son's arena take to spawn lol

do u have to do anything or just wait

or does it only spawn if u haven't been to conduit canyon

[stable stone]

screenshot? dont know what this means

[molten pebble]

can you go to chef area more than one time in a run if you loop? i have heard my friends say you can only go there once per run but dont know if its true

[true token]

@stable stone whats this mean

Vs this

[stable stone]

unlike on/ off toggle, this is for multi-player voting, yellow diamond and red cross both means 1 vote from any player in the lobby

[true token]

Oh

[stable stone]

without votes, they are enabled by default

[maiden grove]

Anyone know how many interactive credits the temporary item distributors are? I imagine it'd fluctuate with the item's rarity too

[dusky raven]

I would assume it’s the same as a regular chest, since price and item rarity are also the same

[jaunty furnace]

you could turn them into later

[scenic musk]

anyway to get 5 monster to spawn without some of the being dupes

[stable stone]

ppl, could you unlock both alloy collective skins in the same run? or selecting either one of them ends your run immidiately

[jaunty furnace]

there is only one ac skin for each character

[stable stone]

ah, i thought accepting or rejecting gives different achievements? so what's the difference exactly

[jaunty furnace]

each base game survivor has 1 skin for either accepting or rejecting

[vague hedge]

bandit captain loader rex and arti have one for accepting and the rest of the basegame cast have reject skins
you can also check the specific unlock condition you need from the logbook so you dont do the wrong one by accident

[coarse nimbus]

For all the skins in the game, if ur dead in multiplayer you still get the skins for finishing monsoon, and the other events. But the new skins you do not get if you're dead come the end of solus heart?

[dusky raven]

There is currently an issue where if you become a drone and end a run like that you don’t get this skin achievement

This is because you didn’t finish it as X character, you finished it as a drone

Probably will get fixed soon, hopefully

[left wren]

i lost out on operator skin ☹️ very tragic hoping this gets fixed very soon

[simple coyote]

definitely. lore. of some kind

also, I never really tried. are the side rooms open during the big ball fight? or only afterward

[cobalt quiver]

On level up gain a free unlock for the next purchase (+1 per stack) but all gold is converted to experience. Anything that costs gold is increased by 50% (+50% per stack). 

Is longstanding solitude's gold penalty referring to things like chests and stuffs? So since the holder will have no gold anyway this will only matters in multiplayer?

[dusky raven]

Yup

[wispy blade]

Does drifter or loader or mercenary need any unlocks to perform their best?

[dusky raven]

For those 3 you can kind of make any move set work, it’s just about play style and whatever feels most comfortable.

I’d suggest doing ability unlocks anyways and seeing what you prefer but they can all work with base kit

[jaunty furnace]

theres no reason not to unlock things either way

unless you despise the challenge or something

[outer skiff]

would i be able to use the wedded elder lemurians to get the operator achievement?

[wispy blade]

The challenge for the wind slash thing sound so painful

[jaunty furnace]

the mercenary one?

[wispy blade]

Yes

[jaunty furnace]

https://www.youtube.com/@Cabbage123

check this channel every couple of days and wait for a seed that looks easy

[wispy blade]

Okay,thanks

(I will probably still suffer)

[jaunty furnace]

current one sounds pretty hard for example lol

[wispy blade]

Does drifter still have the thing that lets her get infinite amounts of temporaries

[jaunty furnace]

there was no patch yet

[dense summit]

Is risk of rain 2 cross play like if im on pc and my friends on xbox series S can we play together

[primal vector]

No, only pc-pc, ps-ps, xbox-xbox

[wispy blade]

How do I guarantee going to the ||vault where I unlock drifter||?

||I wanna get tinker||

[jaunty furnace]

you just do the dlc3 path again

[wispy blade]

I have no idea what the paths are

[jaunty furnace]

access nodes always spawn on stage 3 (other than treeborn)

[wispy blade]

okay,so I need to find an acces node,than what?Do I 100% go to sirens call?

[jaunty furnace]

no

you get set to conduit canyon

and then solutional haunt

[wispy blade]

So the plan is beat 2 stages,find node,go to canyon,go to haunt?

[jaunty furnace]

access node adds a virtual portal to the tp

enter that and youre set

[true token]

Can i find a green portal inside bazaar?

[solemn wind]

yeah

If you destroy the golden geodes scattered through it a green portal appears

[cold hatch]

yo guys how do i remove tonic affliction

I may have bricked my run completely on accident and really would rather not have to just end it

I have 300 stacks and litterally can't move

[hidden siren]

Can you kill solus wing, solus heart and go back to the computation exchange multiple times per run? Or after the first are you just locked out of crafting and stuff

[true token]

Pray for pool of cleansing

[glacial knoll]

you cannot remove tonic affliction

[grave solar]

how does 57 leaf clover work

[lavish jacinth]

all chance-based effects (except tougher times) are rolled 1 extra time in your favor per stack

[ornate magnet]

hey so ive been wondering about this for a while does anyone know if there is a way to get to the perm newt altar on rally point delta

im on huntress so i have some leeway but i cant really get up there still

wouldve been so much easier with the single dash but im using the triple dash instead

[jaunty furnace]

which one is that

i think they should all be accessible with no movement

[outer skiff]

if i go to a golden portal on stage 4 or 5, i should be able to go the sots way right

in the next loop

[lavish jacinth]

yea

[lavish jacinth]

there's no way to reach that one without decent vertical movement

[lavish jacinth]

it's the one way up at the top of the map

default blink + special might get you up there, but I don't think you could do it with phase blink, unless there's a spot somewhere on that wall where you can stand and let your R come off cooldown

[jaunty furnace]

do you ever need that though? is one not guaranteed in the other spots?

[lavish jacinth]

I think you're right, yeah

[ornate magnet]

huh

really?? i have had multiple runs where neither of the other spots had a newt altar

[jaunty furnace]

wasnt there one above #2 aswell? but not as high as the one from earlier

[lavish jacinth]

the wiki does say that exactly 1 will spawn excluding the guaranteed one

[lavish jacinth]

I don't think so

[jaunty furnace]

alright

[lavish jacinth]

the fact that I don't know this really shows how often I bother going to the bazaar lol

[wispy blade]

How do I deal with the solus exploding balls as a melee cahracter?Theres just too many of them to fight alongside a boss

[sweet ibex]

Are there any unobtainable environment logs?

[lavish jacinth]

afaik they're all fixed and obtainable now

[sweet ibex]

Great. Thanks.

[lavish jacinth]

either destroy the dispenser things or just try to stay above them where they won't reach you

[wispy blade]

Is junk cube really better than cleanup?

[lavish jacinth]

I haven't played drifter a ton yet so take my word with a huge grain of salt, but cleanup did seem a little better imo

cube is super fun to use and probably has tech I'm not aware of, but cleanup has insane utility and damage potential with all the random effects it can have

but I don't think cube is bad either

[grave solar]

does the 1 item per minute rule apply to multiplayer

[lavish jacinth]

ideally yeah

but it's never a hard rule, just a rough guideline

[grave solar]

so if lets say the timer is on 12 minutes should we both have 12 items or 6

[lavish jacinth]

uhhh you probably want both players to have between 6 and 12

iirc you get around 50% more loot per player so you probably won't have as many items individually as you would in singleplayer

but the exact amounts aren't super important as long as you're full-clearing and not wasting time

[lethal notch]

Is there a reason drones are this sad to have when dealing with bosses? Got a forced drone seed where everything was for them and my items were trash. Ate so much garbage, I was basically dead.

[lavish jacinth]

idk, usually drones do alright against bosses, especially early on

[willow crescent]

what happens when I max stack it ? I take no dmg at all???

[lavish jacinth]

they probably won't carry you against final bosses unless you have drone parts or upgraded drones, but the damage is still respectable

[lavish jacinth]

you can't reach 100% block chance

[lethal notch]

I was trying to do the Seed (yellow portal) boss, and my drones would not do anything to help beside die.

[lavish jacinth]

Aurelionite?

[lethal notch]

The one you need to interact with trees to deal damage to.

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, that's auri
it does have a lot of health since it's a special boss, but drones should still do okay against it

[delicate ermine]

Dies killing false son and || killing yourself || result in a win for eclipse?

[lavish jacinth]

remember that combat drones do copy your current target, so if you weren't attacking the boss then they probably wouldn't focus on it

[lethal notch]

Well, they were doing nothing for me and I was there for like 10m trying to get kills to activate the trees.

[lavish jacinth]

I'm also assuming you had actual combat drones and not like, a cleanup drone or something

[lethal notch]

A mix of all sorts.

[lavish jacinth]

Eclipse runs have to end at mithrix

[delicate ermine]

Aight ty

[lavish jacinth]

idk what to tell you then

[lethal notch]

Speaking of endings. Why does the Voidling not count toward the skin for your character on highest difficulty?

[lavish jacinth]

usually drones are pretty good now

[lavish jacinth]

it does

[lethal notch]

I beat it to get Fiend boy, got a cool new skin, but not the other one.

[lavish jacinth]

wdym "not the other one"

[lethal notch]

The one for beating it on the highest diff.

Typhoon diff or whatever

[lavish jacinth]

that would be the skin that you got, yes
there aren't dedicated skins for killing voidling like you get with the other dlc bosses, but it counts for mastery skins

[red scaffold]

i got stuck how do i get out

[lavish jacinth]

did they really not fix that fucking leaf

[lethal notch]

I am not sure from who then. I killed Auri, False Son, Mithrix and Voidling that run

[wet night]

Hi. Can phase 4 mithrix proc a uke or meat hook on a drifter cube?

[lavish jacinth]

False son does have a skin, but you should've also gotten the mastery skin

[lethal notch]

This sucks, then. I will be trying to get False Son for myself because I am currently maining Artificer and he would be my next main. He has to be as my favourite boss in the game so far. Void Fiend is cool and all, but I hate how OP I feel running him, making me lazy.

[tender temple]

drifter cubes are on enemy team iirc? he shouldnt be able to attack them

[night raft]

Game erased my achievments from my 4 hour run yesterday how do i fix this

[lethal notch]

How do you have the will power to keep going past completion? I call that dedication.

[lavish jacinth]

if you're on PC then you can use the realercheatunlocks mod or online save editor once they get updated

[night raft]

i messed up and killed the merchant after the dlc final boss so i looped 2 more times and rejected the offer at stage 35

[night raft]

Is mods the only way for real? I have all the recordiing of the run and it is even there at the round history. I opened the new skin and drifter but now it is all gone

[wet night]

That’s helpful then. Tyty

[lethal notch]

Sounds rough. I am new to RoR in general, so most of what you stated makes little sense to me, but I can tell you must have gone through sht to get to that point.

[lavish jacinth]

well, the devs are aware of the save loss issue and it'll be fixed eventually (which will hopefully also revert any lost progress) but we don't know when that'll be

It usually takes a couple weeks for updates to come out due to the verification period for consoles

but other than that and mods/save-editing, there isn't much you can do unfortunately

[tender temple]

its not like modding takes like 5 minutes at most

[lethal notch]

Every game. Man! One day, one day every game dev and consumer will be free of this curse.

I do wonder if the future will be PC/miniature PC's and consoles will be forgotten.

[lavish jacinth]

steam cube master race

[red scaffold]

what's a console mod i can install with stuff like a unstuck command

[lavish jacinth]

debugtoolkit

[lethal notch]

Anything at this point, honestly. Reading things got to get approved because of consoles hurts my brain/heart.

[night raft]

It is so bad bro what is this. Now i re enter not only the proggres is gone but the dlc i bought is not even present.

[lavish jacinth]

hmmm, that may be an issue with steam cloud? try disabling it and see if anything changes

[night raft]

it comes and goes

[lavish jacinth]

or just restart steam/your pc, sometimes that magically fixes things lol

[night raft]

i hope that it will work

[lavish jacinth]

easily my biggest complaint with AC is that they didn't fix some of these old bugs

the save loss thing has been happening for ages, along with some other long-standing bugs, there's no excuse for it not to be fixed at this point. I know they really wanted AC to be perfect at launch but I would've accepted a few extra bugs with the DLC if it meant fixing severe issues like this

[lethal notch]

Sounds to me like they are focusing on something else and since a product is good enough with really good rating, they have no need to fix or change anything not to make things worse. Depends on how much devs focus on profit over consumer satisfaction and communication. I am no dev, but I have seen both sides to recognise patterns, and this sounds like a part of one of those patterns.

[lavish jacinth]

even if they're working on something else down the line, implementing some kind of short-term fix would've been better than nothing

and I think the devs have shown that they do care about the game and aren't purely in it for money, just based on the amount of care and effort put into SotS and AC

[night raft]

So i tried somethings, played with game files and all but still same. Is the modding only way?

[lavish jacinth]

well, you could also edit the save file manually, but that's harder to do and basically the same thing anyway

but you'd be able to do it right away at least, the cheat unlock mod still hasn't been updated so it probably won't work

[night raft]

Any idea how can i do it manually? Is there any guide on it and like, what name by it i search it?

[wispy blade]

Do I ||accept or reject the immortality offering as drifter||?Do I get a skin?

[stable stone]

look at your logbook achievements

[wispy blade]

Well,too late. I accepted

[stable stone]

jangcry

[lavish jacinth]

doesn't matter with drifter, she doesn't have an accept/reject skin

[wispy blade]

Would I get an item if I purged?

[lavish jacinth]

yeah

[wispy blade]

Was it a good one?

[lavish jacinth]

it's just a random red

[night raft]

@lavish jacinth can you please tell me about this?

[wispy blade]

Eh ill get it next time

[lavish jacinth]

yeah, I'm looking it up

[night raft]

okey thanks

[lavish jacinth]

doing it manually is a pain in the ass, there's a reason mods are preferable

[night raft]

I mean you said mod is not updated so it probably wont work thats why i asked about doing it manually

[lavish jacinth]

yeah ik, the issue is that doing it manually requires knowing the internal name of the thing you're unlocking

this may not be as doable as I thought lol
the wiki has internal names for items but not for every achievement, and I don't know where you'd find that

but if you wanna try https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmLiO6H0JVc

[primal vector]

There is a guide in Steam. In the comments the people have wrote how to unlock the DLC stuff

[rough crest]

is it possible to fight the solus wing multiple times in the same run?

[lavish jacinth]

no

[rough crest]

gg

[night raft]

Would this work same if im on epic games??

[lavish jacinth]

if you need to get back to computational exchange then you can kill alloy worship unit for a portal, but if you lost the cerebellum then you're cooked

[lavish jacinth]

probably, I assume the save file works the same way. Probably in a stored different folder though, idk where

[rough crest]

i absolutely bombed the core by accident because i jumped with that new green item 😭

right after giving the exposed cerebellum

[lavish jacinth]

rip

[brittle junco]

does Col. Droneman do nothing but being a placeholder just incase you dont have drones like Lt. Droneboy?

[lime fjord]

how da hell do you do this? and is it even worth?

[brittle junco]

i suggest transcendance, with a bunch of crowbars and focus crystals whether you get them from artifact of command or not and just fly for like 2 minutes and explode

[lavish jacinth]

^ make sure you hit as many enemies as possible, it adds up the total damage dealt, not just a single hit

[lavish jacinth]

yeah

[brittle junco]

thought so thanks

[lethal notch]

Hey guys, I finally defeated the False Son with the Seed on hardest difficulty. Do I offer anything at the Alter, like the Seed item?

Says you will be reborn or something

[stable stone]

if you offer items, it will end the run

[lavish jacinth]

offering an item does unlock something, but it doesn't really matter what you give it

although a good item would be preferable

[lethal notch]

I am fine ending the run, but will it unlock my skin for my favourite girl and will it unlock False Son?

[stable stone]

so offering would mean you unlock an artifact, that lets you start runs with the offered item

[lavish jacinth]

yep, it should

[lethal notch]

What if I gave it the RPG item and every top tier item, would I start with those?

[lavish jacinth]

you can only offer one item at a time, but yeah

[stable stone]

i think false son unlocks as soon as you did the achievement right, doesn't need to offer

[lethal notch]

Got RPG from False Son. Looks like the game wants me to use it 🙂

[stable stone]

if you don't get an achievement pop then you didn't unlock

[modern dome]

does the yummy worm dish deal electric and fire damage?

[lavish jacinth]

it ignites so it does work with ignition tank, but idk if it counts as electric

[lethal notch]

You think someone with their heart in their throat, almost lost the run to ability null at like 1% HP, trying to figure out how to regain power while both bosses are lasering at the last 1% of its HP would notice that kind of thing? You are giving me too much credit, friend.

But honestly, Artificer saved my A against False Son with that clutch freezing ability. She is just built different.

[modern dome]

that's good enough for me, thank you kind stranger!

[lethal notch]

This is what I got throughout the run and I was still panicking because of how much was happening on the screen. Without BFF by my side, I would have never won, even with the clutch ice wall.

[lavish jacinth]

nice

[sweet ibex]

Which enemy log is the one which is blacked out?

[modern dome]

solus invalidator

[sweet ibex]

Thank you.

[lavish jacinth]

did you try this one? You'd have to search for it yourself, the server bots won't allow any steam links

[lethal notch]

So, who or what exactly is False Son? Son of Mithrix? I assume Aurelionite is his personal guard/knight, correct?

[lavish jacinth]

rip

well, this will be the mod to keep an eye on, it should definitely work once it gets fixed https://thunderstore.io/package/prodzpod/RealerCheatUnlocks/

[lavish jacinth]

That would be a better question for #theorycrafting I think, they do lore stuff

[lethal notch]

I am reading up on him. Thanks for the referral, though.

[modern dome]

are you able to visit ||the computational exchange|| multiple times in a run?
also, are you able to visit prime meridian after looping?

[wispy blade]

Scrap cube or cleanup for drifter?I cant choose between the 2

What kind of player would the scrap cube fit

[stable stone]

you can enter after looping

[errant patio]

if I give this item to an equipement drone, will it revive me if i die ? i'm playing alone

[lethal sequoia]

if it is quick enough yes (the timer is increadibly short and i would not trust on it)

[errant patio]

Alright thanks; I'm keeping it then

[lethal sequoia]

Alloyed Collective Item question: ||If 2 ppl have Network Suffering, how exactly do the conections work? F.e. If i bind 4 enemies and my friend attacks them, does he bind them aswell? And is the pool globaly shared or only shared by the owner of the item?||

[mint locust]

Hello question! You can get either of the skins depending on accepting or rejecting? Or there is a correct choice for each survivor?

[lethal sequoia]

there is a set choice for each survivor, it says either reject or accept in the text when hovering over the skin or in the challenge tab of ur logbook

if u ||accept his offering|| it should count

[mint locust]

Thanks!

[brittle shuttle]

No

[cerulean marsh]

yo if i already beat the alloyed collective new boss is it possible for me to find another node to beat him again in the same run?

[sturdy iris]

What does this do?

[lavish jacinth]

lets you pick the next stage

[radiant frigate]

guarantees you will go to that stage when you leave

[lethal sequoia]

is it possible for me to get into void locus and back out? or is that a run ender no matter what?

[sturdy iris]

I didn't last a thing at the next stage lol

got a boss i never seen before, something control unit

i killed him quickly but some balls with lasers killed me

Well i unlocked the artificer

[stable stone]

so I find a halcyon shrine.. in stage 5.. and it sent me to fight aurelionite? is this normal

[lethal sequoia]

yes
