If a shotgun had bad knockback I would legit not use it.
Yeah i think its another ability to punt the bird orb
They expect you to sit near your beacons and you couldn't knock things away? oof.
Except unlike Merc's yeet it can just slowly push it away
Butbas soon as it makes contact with a wall it takes like 400000 damage anyways so the speed dont matter
Also noticed that those anti-projectile drones really help keep your drones alive. Had a TC-280 survive to stage 12 from stage 3 just because of that.
If the density of cash interactable thingies was higher it'd be more useful
One thing thats bothering me aboutbthe drones is they refuse to show up in my log
You could argue the hacking beacon is worth it just for the free red on every loop of the hellscape though.
Maybe we'll get more cash interactables later or something...I'd just use the hack alt on the free red or one of the drones in Delta or Acres.
I usually play with friends so we do the bird stage for the group red
Lemme hack the tele to go faster
5head
๐ค Also don't know if its a bug but you can trade in your passive red item for red scrap and get the passive item back at the next map so you can stack up on red scrap at the end of every teleporter event.
Sounds like a bug
Yeah, that sounds like a bug.
Yea you just get it back at the start and you get a free red scrap, lmao.
I'm not complaining, free stuff.
Thats badass
oh i was so worried about losing it permanently, damn
Now i just gotta find a red printer at this point
it's not as busted as it sounds since I don't see red 3d printers until like 80 mins in personally
Apparently if you have scrap and a sufficient number of items for a trading pool it only uses up the scrap, so yanno
That's a fun bug for now
Yea.
Not like we ever really find a red printer anyway, sometimes it takes way too long.
I don't see red 3d printers until like 80 mins in personally
I've only found like 2 and it was alien heads.
guess who had a zero cooldown artificer
Me
I've only ever found one and it printed Headsets.
Not me because I died.
Deskplant printer when
MUL-Thomas the Goombastomping Tank Engine
My game is not feeling good
Man I can barely find green printers, and I had a run that went to like loop 4 while only seeing medkit and topaz printers. Shit was wild
That's terrible.
I'm waiting for some random person in public play to just swap to one of the lunar chimeras and make jokes about Tokyo Drift or Initial D as they drift along the ground, firing lunar launchers at things to one shot
Speaking of bugs and arrificer, they still havent fixed the bug where in multiplayer artificer and some other projectiles just disappear on contact with anything
At least it wasn't chronobobble printers.
I've literally never seen that bug
and I main artificer
@tired wagon that's just game lag
They buffed Monster Tooth and Medkit to not be absolute garbage, now they can heal a partial % of your HP
...Alongside the flat amount
So stacking it increases flat and %?
Trash at the start, becomes okay as it goes
I could tell it was better but I didn't look up the actual change.
The more HP you end up with the more it ends up doing...at least now I don't see 5 HP popups every other second as I'm rushing down enemies
Also just gonna parrot the unfunness of Risk of Yikes 2: Hope You Have Mobility, Dummy because I got cucked trying to escape the final area
Again
I didn't even run mobility the whole time I was playing captain
"Hope you know how to not break your legs"
I got the forgive me please doll with desk plants and monster teef
I had a run earlier where I killed the final boss and used a Dio to finish it
I had a run with command earlier where every stage looked like this
Then I tried to escape...TC-280 killed a reaver and a lunar enemy launched me into it's death animation.
Fun.exe
Literally every tp event gave us almost all boss drops
Intentionally break the Dio so he can't use it
Yeah, it's Big Brain Time
Intentionally trade in all of your items for scrap right before the TP stage and stunlock him with artificer ice walls and spears
I later did the entire run on monsoon as Engi, had to use big brain strats because he one shots your turrets before going into the item succ
It's kinda funky that he's literally the only boss in the game that actually gets affected by CC
You'd think it'd be the other way
Get dios on the turrets and you can gigabrain them back to life
Turns out if you get Splatterspleen and enough crits you can kill him before he finishes the succ.
Oh
That's how I did it...just brute forced him down
one of my buds had 4 glass bones so he died instantly when he started sucking.
Or just a shit ton of on kills and a forgive me
I was gaining items as he was draining them lmao
Honestly even with just abusing Rex M1 reset got me to chunk him down to half
Im so glad rex got buffed, love that plante
We wasted his armor on the first two fights where he's more cocky then some CoD players.
Lol
Rex is pure kill or be killed, you dance in and out of one shot protection constantly
Peace was never an option, says the deskplant.
Does anybody know what to build on the captain yet? So far I've just built crit/attack speed
I always have to get desk plant as rex, cant leave my brothers behind
Behemoth.
Gray empty oversized level and dark soul boss ( release
I do attack speed/on hit and heal/defense
Providence didnt you die
I kinda build him like engi with more of a focus on my offense than defense?
Also I found the log to that last area, it's in the middle of that huge crater-like area at the bottom of his arena.
Use Loader.
Not in this timeline
Imagine being confined to a 2 dimensional game
Imagine being killed in 2 dimensional game.
Hilariously, the two ways to cheese final boye include:
Stay close to him
Stay away and above him
It's kinda funny that he wields this giant fuck-off weapon and yet standing like just to his side is practically one of the better ways to beat him
Imagine a game
Just freeze him
Hmm, aight. Im still waiting for a super easy prismatic trial so that i can get the harvester scythe thing (also I still need to get the hermit crab thing)
He's not immune to artificer executions atm
Fighting him with Loader is fun.
Do a loop and get back to stage one with a cube and you can just chuck the crabs to their deaths
Just charge him as he runs at you, Dark Souls in a nutshell
I haven't fought him with anything but commando and captain
If you angle the wall right he'll just constantly run into every ice spike in the wall lmao it's amazing
and I was so high up the shockwaves couldn't touch me
I loved Acrid yeeting into him while he charged me.
Felt like one of those Japanese animes
Mostly because I'm super bored of all the old chars atm
Fighting him with Engi can be either just as cheesy as you'd imagine or extremely difficult.
Fighting him as a melee is basically an anime fight lmfao
hope you got dios
Also isnt that just engi
Yup...it's just Engi.
Thats every engi run for me
Engi: Cheese or Die
When the Engi without fungus beats the final boss
Has anyone ever looked back at the virgin shield bubble after getting the spears?
At one point I just stopped using fungus, would get me killed more then help...
Nah.
Does engineer is rat?
Proof:
Loves cheese
Pauldrons might be ears
We havent seen under the helmet
I only use the shield bubble for memes at this point.
Mobile engi GOAT
I don't play engi because he looks boring and the thermal spears from the first game were always cooler than the shield.
...Or to save an idiot from braining himself on a Titan's laser stage 1 
Only for quad Engi, one poor sod has shield duty
I unlocked the lances but at this point I just like the others more.
The virgin engi
The chad captain
Bro my friends and I were like just in awe of the captain after we got him. look at the bold spine alignment
He looks so much different compared to the rest of the crew
Him and Loader would probably get along.
It really shows that he's definitely something else
The virgin engi
The chad captain
The ethereal "New Mystery Survivor"
His default look is like one of their mastery skins
The elusive 4 heresy item survivor
and his master skin is some pimp shit.
Hope thats a thing past 1.0
For a v0.99 update, this is pretty gud :v
I got 14 hours of gameplay, can't complain
Yup. I find it funny that the final boss took the temple guards from RoR1 and taught them how to tokyo drift
can commando do this?
Pretty sure his alt phase blast can do it
Grenades, I think?
its a bunch of small attacks so it doesnt work
Anything can trigger it with enough items
Pretty sure center-blast grenades do over 400%
Some do better then others though...
thats annoying that i have to use grenade :/
speaking of shotgun blasts, does anyone know if Captain's primary counts as one attack for the purposes of a crowbar or is each attack one separate entity for it
Because the crit flat goes on each fire if you get a crit
Yo... How do you fight the stage where he has your items?
Seems to count them all as the same thing since (assuming your charging it and not just spamming left click) it counts them all
freeze him
you shoot him and try not to die
It counts them all if you're mashing it too
Don't be afraid to use the walls he put up
Also I hope you didn't have transcendence because if you did that fight is now much harder
does he take away spinel tonic debuff?
how many phases are there after that?
When he does the succ he's still vulnerable; blast him down
Considering he took away my used Dio, I think he takes the tonic debuffs too
after the stage where he takes your stuff there's only one phase left
Good, good.
got him down to 40k, but i couldnt finish the job
00f
Ain't that a meme way to kill him...
"Oh thanks for taking my tonic addiction"
is there any way to use the primordial teleporter to loop?
The transcendence is only rough if you can't constantly do small increments of damage.
hit e on the teleporter's outer part
Just using commando or arti with fire bolt was enough to keep it from regening for us
On the ringed part of the Teleporter there's a part that has something like "press E to change destination"
going to the artifacts portal also lets you loop
What's the blank language?
Oh
One shifts it to the planet, which is the loop, the other is the moon, which is to end the run
my friends and I only did the artifacts thing but that's good to know.
I ended up having to loop at least 4 times to kill him.
o-o really?
Man, imagine if using Tonic before it ran out stacked its effects
And then stacked your tonic addiction at the end
So you had like a ridiculous number X of GotD or Fuel Cells
And then got like 100 Tonix addictions as he succed your Gestures away
So he took all of them and couldn't even moove
Was alone, Monsoon makes it that much worse.
i dont see the option to change the destination anywhere
He will one shot you on Monsoon in the earlier stages.
ehhhh
its on the spires on the tele porter @random pawn
I thought it was fine
It's not that hard to dodge him anyway
what character were you?
Fungiless Engi.
That was...something else for a fight
The only problem the boss poses on harder difficulties is the adds he spawns, since the big wisps do practically hitscan shots
i still dont see it
WAIT commandos grenades wont even explode in the air! ugh
They're really hard to use
do they expload on hit?
no like
No
they seem like ass
The funny thing is if you have any Queen's Glands he'll spawn beetles to fight you with.
delayed explosion after it lands on something
bruh.
Yeah I don't know why they're not stickies
they shouldve just been made sticky i feel like.
plus they roll down hills and shit
And uh...you can't bring yours to the battle either. They just get stuck and run in circles, too stupid to follow you
it's better than it sounds, its a good burst damage item that you can just throw into a crowd of enemies and have them die with a wide procing effect.
good luckt hitting wandering vag with it ig
does anyone have a picture where exactly i need to be to change the teleporter?
Wish you could bring your drones and turrets and whatnot into the fight as a thing that teleports them all in with you
the problem is it basically nerfs your anti-air potential.
is artificier's explodey m1 any good now?
It's better now since the range is amazing after it got buffed
It's on the outer ring that surrounds the main teleporter button. If you've already pressed the teleporter button and activated it, you can't change it's destination.
I still think the debuff from fire bolt is superior but the aoe on the electrobolt makes on-hit procs with her much more viable since it hits multiple enemies at once way more often now
but tbh idk if u need it, nano bomb nukes groups of enemies - the extra aoe is unnecessary
@random pawn the prongs on the side of the primordial tele are interactable, if you press use on them once it changes your destination to loop
But do you really need anti-air when you're playing artificer? I assume you don't play with the flamethrower right?
ew who plays with flame lol
theres no prompt to change anything
unless you don't have ion
You can also change it back to not loop if you change your mind...but if you've already turned the teleporter on (fought & killed boss) the prompt isn't there anymore.
like the aoe effect is much better for crowded wisps than fire since you know, duh.
One way street after that
i didnt use the teleporter yet
anyways new nano bomb feels amazing
but I still prefer the fire bolt since SOME reliable early damage is nice.
all i can say
It does, I shout Kobe whenever I use it man
nothing like nuking groups
i cant fucking see any prompt to change anything
They did a good job of making me have a hard time choosing between ice spear and nano bomb.
so more hype for me
same damage at that time too
Nano spear was a lot easier to use though, no need to aim.
its funny how mult minigun is still bad tho lmfao
I don't use multi so I'm unaware of how good his changes are but my friend said it was a mostly good buff
had a bunch of procs and well
@random pawn
i didnt get this prompt
bleed would be amazing on mult no cap
Oh, the low damage threshhold makes it worse then.
I just want a gravity alternate for artificer's shift though man
Yea same
I'm not complaining about the lack of new alternates, since they buffed her and bunch of other stuff
It's frankly a little weird that Ion Charge isn't a Utility skill
It's primarily meant for movement, which is what most Utilities are
eh, I disagree on the grounds that the damage is on par with most character's ults and if you're playing Ion Surge then flamethrower is essentially worthless
It's less that it should be utility and more than they counter eachother's playstyles
You can straight up kill the first boss with no items with Captain. He's disgusting.
True...I don't mind playing with them, makes things fun.
Like I don't know about you guys but half the time I'm so high up the only threat to me is like... wisps and vultures.
4.5k% damage skill anyone
But I still don't think there's anything to justify replacing Merc's R with the other one, even if it does have Expose now
Flamethrower would be cool if it like
Instead of being a Burning Hands thing, made it so that you have infinite castings of your M1 for a limited time
If it increased hit count with dps like evi did I'd say it would be worth it for like, throwing down and running away
Sure, it's a ranged alternative for a melee character. Sounds like a neat idea until you realize how much help your default one gives you. If it increased the hitcount, yeah, it'd be worth more imo
if you're engineer, and he steals your items AFTER your turrets are placed, do they retain their items?
who cares, he one shots them unless you have dio's anyway
They start losing their items too, and he'll actually one shot them as he's giving your items the succ. If you have a Dio though, they'll use it and retain the items.
That sounds kinda mean, but its true
with the trade pools nearby, it would be worth checking for a dios just for the hell of it
i guess the survivor that can compete with captain's damage is artificier ... but arti doesnt even scale that well with attack speed
...You can also just outdamage him to the point that your gaining items back faster then he can drain lmao
although superior mobility, aoe and freeze execute
That would actually be a kinda cool way to make Arti scale with attack speed, if Flamethrower gave you infinite M1s for a limited time
I died at the end of phase 3 ๐ฉ
I think the best thing I've done for arti's damage over long runs was completely dropping on-hit effects and only going for critical stuff or on kill effects
That's where most people die, Potato. When he's choking to death on his own ego as he fires tiny crystal shards at you
just stack mobility, crowbars and glasses
The line attack is going to be the one thing that ruins all my runs
also arti is the best glass contender now
I forget, does Crowbar require 100% health to proc or just above a threshold?
I believe it has a threshold of like 90% HP
I'm not sure since they normally explode tbh
So chip damage won't ruin it unless you go a bit too far
Why have the reviews gone down? I really liked this update and thought it was amazing, only encountered one tiny glitch as well.
I usually play like
Acrid, Rex, and Merc
So crowbar is usually a kinda eh item for me
๐ค I guess I could see running flamethrower as viable if I immediately got the strides of heresy within like, stage 2 or less.
I think its because of the reroll island lmao
is ||Halycon Mithrix's|| brother?
Behemoth on Captain is also good too, can do about 600-700 damage a shot.
I'm not sure why the reviews have gone down either, I guess people were expecting more then a nihilistic madman's world of concrete, tokyo drifting temple guards and Templars on steroids.
1 asset placement and BOOM, fixed
Halycon's lore piece keeps referencing brother
Merc feels weaker and I don't really know why lol
That legit might be it, fighting Mithrix is actually hard even on drizzle and some people can't handle monsoon so it's highly possible that -
and we know ||mithrix shouts out or his brother|| as he dies and its part of his lore too
The health regen got nerfed into the pavement @radiant flare
They lowered his HP and HP regen, but they gave him 'Expose' mechanics
So all this commotion is because of a island that is easily escapable if you have prepared?
He is no longer the tankiest boy
They changed merc so that, quote "better players will be stronger and worse players will be weaker"
And since he's melee and gets hit all the time, thats why he feels weak
merc never felt stronger honestly
The health regen got nerfed into the pavement @radiant flare
Ouch
wasnt loader the tankiest
Yea
Yeah, you can get stuck on that island if you haven't prepared apparently
by far
not counting iframes
Yet I jumped off and respawned at the warp to the boss so I don't see the issue here
I don't know what the hell is up with that island, why the hell didn't they just add a jump pad XD
with the melee changes to melee characters they all got buffed pretty much, and merc himself got the expose mechanic going for him. he feels way better but obviously his early game has been nerfed in regards to survivability
ONE jump pad and the problem would be solved
How? lmao. I got stuck there while playing commando and barely got off by getting to that floating pretzel thing to the side of it.
Either a jump pad or a bridge something you could hop back up to in order to get past
Also why the hell is the moon so god damn barren and why does the walk to the boss have to take so friggin long
but tbh endgame youve brainstalks so what do ya need expose for
Yeah it was neat the first time but holy hell why do I have to walk that far every attempt
@dapper kelp Because they want you to admire the tokyo drifting temple guards
Eh, I'd say it's more the design of the final area in general
It's kinda slow going, and even stuff like quails suck because moongrav
And if you were unlucky to not have mobility items then you just have to walking simulator for five minutes
And then ||you have to do it again backwards in under 4 minutes or you lose the run haha fuck you||
Lol mett
Literally no other explanation
Because it's risk of rain and if the game wasn't depressing, oversized and a little empty it would go against the usual designs
Why else does it give you so much room lmao
**It makes you feel small. **
Also...this might be the only stage in the entire series that has rain.
It has rain.
And its on the moon
I mean, some moons have atmospheres so its not that weird.
Although I am curious about something...
tbh bands probably deserved the nerf
So whats the best character to beat the boss with?
Artificer.
they were a bit too stronk
Final boss seemed...distressed when the Void Reavers started showing up
I honestly just want to get it over with
I mean I would still feel pretty damn small if there were, you know, more enemies on the way there that actually proved more than just a funny sight as they plinked me with funny bullets on the way past
you can freezelock him and he's subsceptible to ice executions
I get the feeling this isn't the end
Not sure if that's a bug or not
If you fly up high enough you avoid everything but the pistol stuff he shoots though
Artificer is boring as hell but it beats attempting this like....7 more times
I had to loop 4 times as Engi without fungi to kill him before he can yeet my items.
I beat it with rocket jump though so like it might've been a little tedious for other people to watch lmao.
I get that it's supposed to be the moon
This empty place where supposed god-like creator beings live and shit
But uh
It's just not... very fun if you aren't zooming on crack cocaine energy drinks?
Yea fair
Wish I could use the power loader but my damn mouse is broken and right click won't stay held down :/
...And then I died to a Void Reaver's body explosion because a tokyo drifter launched me into the void reaver's death animation 
I also kinda feel like they built a lot of stuff in general in the game as if they expected you to build into mobility
Had to do that run again to finish it
and you really should, in the 3d environment its basically mandatory
I mean fair
But loot box mechanics
but it also makes it rough for low mobility characters who don't wanna use command
for onhit i think bleed replaces bands
All it takes to even get past that area is just a hoopoo feather.
Goat hooves and energy drinks help too, same with red whips
no aoe but killer damage
Red whips were nice
bands are for the heavy hitters
The RoR2 gacha is worse than FGO sometimes
I just want my red whips and energy drinks and goat hoofs but all I'm getting are meat and teeth!
I quite like red whips, I think they're underrated.
They added scrappers though, so like
You ever want to just have a normal run when you open up a normal chest and get Happiest Mask 4 times in a row
And then your stuck with lagception
quick uh question...is it safe to go into user data to unlock a character? i was hoping to unlock the captain since the run i did was so close, like i was legit at the ship but the time ran out. i want to know would i get in trouble for editing it to where i unlocked him.
It's safe.
ezpz
I don't know how to put in the code to unlock characters but it's safe to edit your profile data.
am i the only one who runs double hack on cap'n
in the old days I cheated in like 7 trillion lunar coins because they were hard to find and I was lazy.
I don't even use enough of them to justify it anymore.
im sorta basing it off what i see i guess his name in code is captain
I believe it's Captain, yes.
Now it's time to go to bed and probably put Risky Rain 2 down for a small bit until they hotfix the Mun
@ebon violet I normally run heal and hack or double heal?
i guess heal is ight but small range
double hack speeds up early game a bit
It does.
I mean I just play captain sort of like a tower defense version of Enforcer from ror1 though
so I just camp around my beacons once I place them
lifesteal items are bonkers on captain
stuff like returning back to full from 10% in a split second
ok so ran into the issue...that i added what code i assume was to unlock him, it corrupted it so i had to remove the code the guide i found is out of date so it doesnt include the code to use to unlock the captain DX
well the achievement to unlock him doesn't have his name in it
so you'd probably have to look it up and see if anyone has the actual code name
https://gameplay.tips/guides/4038-risk-of-rain-2.html this uh is a guide i found. its likely missing stuff and or out of date of course
I mean, 1. It was a joke, and 2. People like to share stuff like that on reddit, I'm sure it's on the reddit for the game if you really wanted to check it.
hmm
OH it worked
what was the name
post it in brackets for other people
just straight up ||Captain||
they might complain
"captain"
just play the game
no lol
why
i wanna play the new content
i dont wanna have to work for it
i understand why you might but its the way i like to play
cant force your views on others
fair but at least check out how to get the new content so you don't disrespect the creators
i did, my dumb ass messed up though so thats why im doing it. i'd have no issue working for it its just...im butthurt about failing so close to the ship lol DX
fair
and to be fair here i did unlock all the other characters normally ๐
Tbh, I don't really mind it for alternate movesets if I don't play the characters, but generally unlocking the survivors was pretty straightforward
yeah
hmm
exactly
wonder what would be a cool arti shift skill
@nova merlin is the code just "captain"
|| <unlock>Characters.Captain</unlock>|| โ๏ธ
I ain't gonna try to force y'all to do anything it just bothers me.
I would love a gravity well alternate shift but probably its gunna be a flame wall that ignites passing enemies or some such
i normally don't do this stuff with games as i enjoy working to the content, and its normal to be bothered about it.
since she seems to be an elementalist and not just like a general magician
fair
@oak ravine implying anyone would take a fire wall
ikr, lmao
just the sad truth :(
Wouldn't mind an ice shield though
not over ice wall at least
Like just a barrier around you that froze enemies that came into contact maybe?
is there a way to skip the openening scene at the start of the game like ive watched it 5 times now
space
ty
it says space in the corner of the screen
so what is the captains playstyle?
uh
I'd describe it as a mix of short/midrange crowd control and support
shotgun, orbital lasers, and beacons that are essentially totems. His alternate skill unlocks let you choose different totem effects
hmm
i think smth that makes you temporarily unable to receive dmg would be a cool shift
he's a good group character but he might fall short in solo play?
How about they just give us a vertical ion surge
would be busted with brainstalks but so is merc's R
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
or like an icy tackle that we can just headbutt into people with and it pierces, freezing enemies in a set path or something
but thats just a worse wall :(
how is it worse?
You get much needed vertical mobility and the only downside is that you don't have to wait for them to walk into it
OH
wait i totally missed the mobility part
thats good lmao
but idk how id feel giving arti verti mobility
I'd feel like a fucking fighter jet, that's how I'd feel.
its kinda supposed to be an immobile mage minus ion
personally I think the alternates shouldn't be like straight upgrades, but more like actual choices
"Do I wanna use mobile turrets or set them down?" "Do I want damage or mobility?"
playstyle, not best options
Ye
apparently you cant tank the enemies on the moon as engineer with mushrooms
I don't think I'd ever go back to playing flamethrower personally but some people refuse to play her without it
I would've thought they'd have buffed flamethrower with her overall buff
and same, it gives you a different kind of mobility from the speedy melee characters
also turns you into the designated newt altar fetch-dog though, so.
until a horde of wisps spawn in
Yoooo electro bolts would be awesome on her with glass on
thats why u stack drinks and hooves lmfao
the aoe
but youve the survivability and base damage for it
given you dont get randomly sniped
well mobility rather than survivability but id put a = sign between em
yea.
lmao i wonder if i could give him a ton of glass then royal capacitor him
before he oneshots me
preon might work better
God I am like, trying to work up the effort to try another attempt at beating the boss.....That's never a good sign for a game
o-o dude that boss fight was hype, what?
I lost to him the first time and I was immediately down for another 80 minute run
who did you go with the first time?
Yeah its everything that comes before that lol
iirc preon does.. 4.5k% base? use a crowbar on top to decimate a boss
He'd take away your crowbar at the end though
he doesn't take equipment, only the passives
ugh imagine if he stole equipment too.
spinel tonic
So far I've failed with commando 4 times, hunter 3 times, acrid once, engineer once, MUL-T about 8 times, Mercenary I think 4 times, and I can't play loader cause my mouse is broken :I
lmao
just use engi and final boss becomes ez mode
mult 8 times lmfao
I hate playing artificer but I guess I gotta cheese it
classic mult
And yeah I love playing MUL-T
I went there as acrid the first, on monsoon, beat the boss, got the 2 achievs for it
i guess each to their own, i find him clunky
Acrid would also probably be a fairly good way to beat him since there are spots on the map where you can avoid most of his aoe attacks.
but stacking bleed on mult would probably be really good now
I also find him clunky.
I just can't get over how different the game feels now. I use to be able to steamroll everything and now I can barely get through to the final stage
acrid is pretty good, leap gives mobility (I simply jumped out of comedy island, didn't tihnk you could get stuck there), and you can do dmg while moving
My favorite three as of 1.0 are Artificer, Captain (I like support characters) and Commando.
i seriously cant stop praising bleed though
Yea the new change is 100% better imo
that one item which gives enemies bleed when you crit is so sexy
Well, I'm just gonna go Artificer with Ion Surge and play Drizzle so I can unlock the new survivor and get this over with
yay.
while still being fairly balanced as far as balanced can be taken in this game
Have you tried asking other people here for help?
Like, actual help in-game instead of a solo run?
A tip I can give you is use a bleed build and use someone who can pump out bullets like Mul-T
You'll practically microwave the final boss
Yea the only real issue I had fighting him was at the end when he takes your items
That part blew when I had a ton of shaped glass
The final boss makes the game less of a survivability build game and more of a preparation game, so you might want to think about what you pick up later.
lmao
grrr the spinning line slam thing caught me
I got hit once and was dying
was too low to the ground
At least providence never stole my shit, Mithrix and his hood rat tactics.
god forbid you end up on comedy island with no mobility @oak ravine
Can't have shit on the moon
what is comedy island
Truuuuuuue
mithrix, the ultimate scavenger
Oh no
The island of "end game"
a stranded island
how do u get off of the reforge area on the moon
where youll be stuck without the appropriate amount of mobility
@austere knoll The cauldron island on the moon can end your run if you can't get off of it. jumping off of it respawns you there unless you land on another island or the bridge.
HAH
how do u get off of the reforge are on the moon
@deep veldt you don't
Ah, ok.
bruh
Welcome to comedy island
wdym
Gottem
wait is it bugged?
Pretty much
Nah its just an oversight in the design of the rest of the game
is there meant to be a geyser
a geyser would easily fix it lmao
If you have a buncha double jumps you can get out
if
Hope you brought artifact of command
If you can get to the square shaped island next to it
and jump off of it there, you can get back on the bridge.
thats how I did it as commando
Captain out here stealing lunar flare tomes from terraria and acting like we wouldn't notice.
bruh
I haven't played for a while I used to play merc, which is the strongest character since the release?
Completely subjective
I personally think pre nerf Mul-T
mul-t were buffed in the patch no?
"Y'all mind if I just PTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT"
mulT is personally my least favorite character
engineer was pretty good as a candidate for that spot before the final boss but he seems almost built around keeping you away from stationary builds like engi's bread and butter so?
yea but why bother with crackhead multi if I can just use commando at that point
yeah
the acid dog seems kinda interesting is he any good?
double the items is nice I guess but I like commando's skills more
Consider this tho
i like rex bc hes op and certain items just make any run broken
Shopping Cart Mode
Acrid is great
do you go with the ranged m2 or bite on acrid?
Acrid is super fun
acrid got buffed didnt he?
Consider the Mel Gibson slide-while-shooting tactic.
yea melee acrid got buffed i think
i like acrid but when u get a vagrant as acrid ur screwed
Consider this uhhh 2 Q items?
any idea what to do at mithrix if someone is afk at spawn? cant find out how to kick
also engi is fun if u use mobile turrets
what's the other one going to be, an item scanner?
game ended.
you can't start it unless everyone is there. We tested it.
You wait for the difficulty to spike and die to a peon
nice
Yeah my buddy Duke got stuck on comedy island for like 10 minutes
well
what are they even called
kinda yea? they have a similar AI?
Yeah p much
The enemies on the moon of Petrichor V are all called lunar chimeras
k
the golem looks like an immortal from starcraft 2
||Its implied from logs that Mithrix and his dumb worm loving brother Providence made them||
A risk of rain mod that makes commando's roll 200 times faster
In honor of captain's release and 1.0 being a thing after a year or so of waiting I changed my personal group's icon to a picture of captain's mask over a picture of the black dude from YMCA with some lens flare on his eyes
hey, i have made a massive blunder and i am a bit worried
That's amazing
Are you on the cauldron island?
yes
Lemme guess. Comedy island?
Lmao
@oak ravine do you have the logbook?
you instantly knew lmao
We've all been there
I am the only person to not get stuck there
possibly
Because I already had an amazing build
I saw red items and i went
I had a great dps build
I didn't get stuck there, was acrid, simply leaped up
wait, am i actually trapped
noooo i had a good setup....
If you have multiple jumps you can cheese your way back
rip
Or if you're fast enough
LMAO im engineer
Yea oopoo really need to fix this island
what i deserve for greed
I manage to escape with huntress, but it was a close one
@quartz saffron ||Your completions of my designs are uneasy, brother. Let me show you their purpose.
We begin with stone, silver, and fire. Take note of the ratios.
High speed. Speed is war.
Twin cannons โ with twin exhausts. We stream their exhausts, for volatility.
Quadrupeds are easier, and more stable. We maintain that.
And that, dear brother, is it. No dance. No song. These guardians do not need soul.
||
"commando save me"
lmao, someone had the same problem in #gd1-nullified
With Huntress I had to jump off and teleport
With commando and Engineer you are just stuck
i will find a way!
I'd like the picture of the golem, not the text, if you have it
There is no way out
So it is possible to escape the item trap zone with her lol
"Huntress save us"
Also, it is me or are the enemies in this zone completly useless? They are tanky as hell but don't give money, why would anyone even bother with them?
Oh I don't have it personally, one of my friends got it during our runs today and he showed the text to us.
They do give you money I think?
and you don't need money on that map anyway
do you happen to have a pic of a golem in game?
uh... probably not. Sorry
The money could be a useful dps boost against Mithrix if you were holding onto a crowdfunder the whole time.
The crowfunder give DPS boost? I thought it only give money on hit, and lose money when hitted
Or maybe you meant the money canon?
(DOn't remember it's exact name)
||is Mithrix Providence?||
I'm not sure if the enemies give you money but I've definitely gotten to Mithrix with money on my character so I assume they give you money.
M is P's brother
@static echo ||He's his utilitarian brother who was trapped(?) on the moon of the planet during the events of 1.||
So like does RoR have a timeline? Is it 1 then 2? Or 2 then 1.
sorry
1 then 2
Damn commando needs to toughen up
I'm like 90% sure the returning characters are different people with similar jobs
"Wah Wah killing beetles bad!" Then you have captain who's ending is like ||"YO YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT I DID LAST TUESDAY"||
I believe it
The captain willfully came out of retirement with a fucking shotgun revolver arm instead of a normal hand
he's down to clown
everyone was wondering what final boss was gonna be, i mean if it's on the moon then lore makes it pretty obvious
i'd love to fight the final boss hahaaaa...
Moon's haunted
nice
That's not even far off lmao
Final boss is king Boo
"Moon's haunted. Cocks arm"
"Cock's haunted. Moons arm"
might wanna add some asterisks, that look like a weird sentence
Good night dude, pleasure messing around with ya.
Acrid is the only actually returning character, all the other are other characters with similar job
Acrid is the only actually returning character, all the other are other characters with similar job
@wise orbit wait is that true?
Explains why Huntress is dummy thick in this game
@austere knoll devs said that, acrid is the only same char from ror1
huh. thats cool actually. Wonder what made the dog lose his chain and come back to the fight
CLONES
he was hungry
That's my MatPat theory
acrid being hungry legit makes the most sense
He's just a hungry boy, give him some leftovers
beat the boss with acrid, the line you get is: so it left ||with delusions of freedom||
I think his similar size to the player makes him terrifying like how providence was
"OH GOD HES SO SMALL I CANT HIT HIM"
no giant rock man, no big demon imp, just a dude on a mission: to fuck your shit up
๐จ
I thougt the final boss design was pretty lame tbh
ror2 lore is literally a guy went mad from creating too much shit and abandoned by his brother, and (you) is sent to rescue the crashed plane while also doing exploration
i prefer ror1 lore where the survivor questions his humanity and the ethics of the company hes working in
not going to bed until i bonk him with his own hammer
pretty sure the leeching item is bugged btw, its supposed to leech +1 enemy per item stacked but it leeches everything around
forgot the name
miraged urn
ye that
Im in a run with over 600 items and i accidetally hit a shrine of order
also i forgot - does luck stat affect item drops
Did your game crash?
or just procs
So is it better to rush him to get a lower max health, or build up massive item bulk to take him on
It didnt crash, but i have 443 crit glasses hahahaah. Sooo useless
Jesus
scrap em! get 433 of something else
take a step and be on the moon without a tele
My engeneer turrets still retain my old items so i cant lose. Everything gets cleared on the map instantly lol
alright guys wish me luck im going back in
goddamn #gd1-nullified is toxic
guys how can engineer get out of that one island in the new stage
oh is it multiplayer?
The one with all the item trades?
have him leave and rejoin
Tell him Malk said "should've stanned Loona"
will he be dead?
I like when my pc is so bad it's zero frames per second in artifsct reliquary
And nah he ain't dead
I got stuck on an island with item trades on the new level so i just got a bunch of hoopo feathers
nah he just has to run back
oh ok we'll try it
Good luck
Make sure your not in the boss arena tho, or you'll have too solo until he arrives
got it
oh damn it works
Everyone has to be there
Heya friend
thanks guys
NOOO
Oh the image finnaly worked
80 seconds of defense shatter
rip lmao
that guillotine tho
i'm sorry but,,, why would you shrine of order unless for the meme
Because it's funny
That crit
I thought it was a shrine of the mountain lol. I had too mcuh movespeed.
NOW PUT ALL WHITE IN SCRAPPER
my children. I was limited because they apparently cap at a certain point
And crit glasses max out at 10 lololol im do sad
So little items
wait, does scrapper have a limit?
it might take a while to spit out the 700 scrap
(i had so little items as i was screwed, so i memed it and decided to do.. that)
i think there's a mod to remove the ally cap
too late i guess
Yeah but we gotta wait for those to be updated
My turrets are soo op. I have 50 razorwire so they reach the entire map, and they use the new yellow item on eachother to constantly take damage sucking eachother lol
lmao
300 iq
"Constantly take damage sucking each other"
;)
Do y'all know if you get the character skins from beating Mithrax on monsoon?
Well, razorwire
You do
Yes
forgive me please + desk plant + aegis tho
absolutely unkillable
@daring sage yes
Either blow urself up at the funny place or kill em
Okay cool thanks
Ooh desk plant. I haven't tried that one
It's neat
I just keep making bombs with wisp and gasoline
desk plant got mega buffed
Its so fun to go into the blue portal with monsters drop items, and come out with 500 items at 14mins lolol
@polar anvil wanna play
alright
Right now I'm stuck in captain run with 0 fps
lmao, good luck
Void fields cheese is a little addictive
is noone hosting public servers? I guess there wouldnt be that mnay people
unless my settings are bad
lmao, 0
Is it just me or does the game feel much more ambient/foggy, or even a bit more... realistic?
yeah! that's how I noticed it. I like it a lot, reminds me of the first game
is blight better than poison
Nope
since blight can kill right
using poison and gasoline, you can deal more damage and kill
@royal phoenix ya know what's scarier, topaz broach + forgive me please auto setup with gesture on a 2 second cooldown. with 40 gas and 20 wisp
Holy shit the music
Final stage?
Yes, it's absolutely unbelievable the upgrades to the music have made it go from decent music to my all time top 5
I mean, it's Chris, you can't expect less ๐
Does anyone have a link to the last level music somewhere Ir eally just wanna sit down and listen to it
Honestly i'd put forgive me please in a category of needs to be nerfed. or at least needs some interactions removed
i still hate the ad lib on roost
nice soothing stuff become tribal shit that sounds out of place
others are gud i guess]
Forgive Me Plase is fun as hell
but yeah i agree that it's really strong
especially with dags
It's in a league of it's own as a build enabler
Honestly i'd put forgive me please in a category of needs to be nerfed. or at least needs some interactions removed
@dull ingot absolutely. It can destroy the game. Like, so good it crashes.
Daggers and forgive me is scary
its only good if u stack on kill stuff
Soulbound catalyst is amazing with it, as long as you don't take gesture
I had a 4 man run beat the final boss at stage 10 with only me standing still and letting it kill everything
otherwise its pretty useless if u stack proc stuff instead
I just got an overgrown 3d printer that had a boss item I hadn't seen and it wasn't on wiki, shatterspleen. Seems good tho
Shatterspleen is nice. Not sure how good exactly, but i like it
its only good if u stack on kill stuff
I already do before 1.0 came out when I use commands
shatterspleen is kinda busted if you have good attack speed
^
dunestrider's drop
Shatterspleen is basically tri-tip + will o wisp
opinions on perforator?
Perforator is good for visuals, but I dont see it being strong
Also @arctic terrace you say only if you don't stack on kill, but with gesture setup, and enough CD, you can do both
it's good for large packs later in the run
when the balls will actually hit
well yeah that works i guess
look at these starting items, in the second area atm
Time? @frosty terrace
๐ท ๐ณ ๐ฌ
Think you've spend too much time in the first few stages haha
...6 glasses shatterspleen
13 min ๐ I took my time going back to a crit glass printer
it doesn't matter how much time they've spent at that point
is there no anti aliasing options
that's pretty much a ticket to victory right there
Damnnnnnn should be on stage 4 by then haha
game looks jaggy as fuck
yeah I know, 13 min in stage 2 is slow af
Well I suppose but looting tactic is only viable with insane rng luck.
but I have great items I'm good
also the tilted ui makes the ui horribly jagged as well even with x8 ui AA
My fastest is a 27 min obliteration:dd
well it was a crit printer, not rng
Getting that printer is rng tho
yeah but if there's no printer they wouldn't be doing looting strat
Fair
Man I'm lying at the beach but I lowkey wish I was home so I could play hahhaha
playing as rex btw, love rex
Hypeee. Without spoilers, hows the final stage and boss?
Man you're making me wet
can't wait to see it! this is my first run of 1.0
without spoilers: ๐
the cinematic was cool too
Good luck letaali! Not that youll need it with those items haha
the items won't save you
one small spoiler for the boss: make sure to have enough mobility
Duly noted
get yourself some feathers at the very least
No artificer it is
otherwise it's time for comedy island
shhhh
Watch out for the soft lock
Any merc mains here? How are you enjoying the buff?
That's all I'll say
anyone here that can help me? Im trying to enable cheats via the console but whatever i do it stays on 0/disabled. Did they remove access to the console cheats?
i'm a merc main
fuck merc's new dash tbh
I just use a cheat mod if I want cheats
the rework is fun
but they changed the dash
and it's weird as hell
Yeah i do too but some cheats require use via the console and they require cheats to be turned on
it's got loader's hitlag now
and i think it moves you forward a bit farther than you actually hit
yet typing cheats 1 does not actually put cheats on, as typing just cheats still says cheats is on 0
Can we still yeet the stage 4 boss into the ground??
at least i can still hit the AWU with the S L A M
splat
it's got loader's hitlag now
and i think it moves you forward a bit farther than you actually hit
@royal phoenix it does, it's awful, you have to be really really close to the enemy if you dont wanna miss and end up behind them
i still have no idea how to consistently slam
but i can do it like 1/5 times so it's good enough for me
good news is, exposed debuff is very fun to play with
don't even need the dash
Seriously... captain's M2 and special are so disappointing, but that M1 is godlike.
Hope he gets a touch-up though.
just 3-hit combo -> secondary -> eviscerate
Cant wait to play the captain
cap's M2 is useful for the first 5 minutes, then stops being useful after
feelsbadman
Man the beach is nice but I really wish I'd be playing ror now hahahha
his M1 and Util are so fun tho
man that boss was hard enough on monsoon lol
The utility is okay... I mostly use it for wailing on big things.
i don't really care about how good it is
it's just fun to rain down fire and death
So do you go to the new final stage now when you reach stage 8?
you can get Cap on drizzle, r-right?
no
stage 6
captain is my favourite character
That delay though, makes hitting elder lumerians and parents a bitch.
you can get Cap on drizzle, r-right?
@dull ingot yes.
Wuuuuuuuuuut
thanks!
Stage 6?!
Yes, but everyone will judge you for it.
drizzle and command if you want to
the tele on Sky Meadows sends you to the final stage
No monsoon and shaped glass artifact
alternatively, you can adjust it to send you to normal looping
wish i had glass artifact lol
Oh no kidding
Shaped glass is less great now
Yeah I read. No OSP
which is good, i hated it anyway
Seeing OSP is nice though. Now I know which items to blend!
Yeah real game breaker
it's interesting how you can get capt in drizzle, you had to play on rainstorm in ror1 to get the beat-the-game characters if i remember correctly
Facts @rare heart
also, the new bands are way more fun and strong
Should be monsoon only tbqf if you ask me
I mean, it's pretty whatever. I'll do it on Monsoon anyways, but let people do it on Drizzle ||with Command|| if they'd like
Its so everyone can unlock it
The last stage of the boss is utter BS, but I still judge anyone who turns it down to drizzle to deal with it.
Even the casual players
oof
the last stage of the boss hurts as captain ngl
No gatekeep the unlocks from the plebs Kappa
the last stage of the boss hurts as captain ngl
@royal phoenix wish i could get there lol
what is that message in the top right? ๐
I buzzsawed him to death. Ain't even gonna try on a character that doesn't have that alpha-strike potential though.
i unlocked both the captain challenges and went to fight the boss on loop 2
When you get there you wish you have enough dmg to burst
im salty and decided not to play after a bunch of mp matches where they stole all the items
i was so slow i couldnt get a single one
bursted him down to half before the succ was complete
then he 1-shot me
lol
imagine walking in there with transcendance tho
yeah he 1-shot the last guy that was alive and cheesing him on a pillar
it was hilarious
My engineer turrets magically vanished after he was done...
So I just pulled out my strongest cheese.
thoughts on Purity, if yall have it unlocked?
Dont have it dont know what it does
