[slow cipher]

Need it to be next Wednesday immediately

[hollow furnace]

[tall pine]

What's tomorrow

[pale mountain]

Lets goo

[mighty citrus]

Managed to get the necronomicon ontop of all my 2 energy cards and strength build it was op as shi

[pale mountain]

Ok yeah that's nutty

[hollow furnace]

risk of rain returns totally releases tomorrow ‼️‼️

[mighty citrus]

Gotta beat it as the other characters now

Beating slay the spire before ror2 sotv comes out challenge???

[neon ember]

YOOOO. I just unlocked the 4th character. The Defect is op, the new character is op but takes skill. I don't like the Hunter

[mighty citrus]

Yeah I just unlocked her too

[forest sinew]

That character is the strongest

Almost all of her cards r good

[mighty citrus]

I thought ironclad was tbh

[neon ember]

She is nutty. I like the power card that gives smite every turn. Stay in calm, block up, and once you have enough switch to wrath and wipe

[mighty citrus]

Strength build is fun

[neon ember]

Definitely.

[unique sequoia]

Man. Lost a potential god run tô a sticky bomb

[mighty citrus]

Happens to the best of us

[unique sequoia]

Commsndo run

Had plenty of aoe, Ukulele, crits and Just got claped into oblivion

[mighty citrus]

Trust me, November 8th is gonna be a great day for everyone

[unique sequoia]

Im kinda shocked it took this long to add an item that buffs crits

Also hope that drones dont always face plant on my face

Shit's annoying

[oak finch]

lmfao true

especially healing drones i feel like

and the emergency drone too

[unique sequoia]

Gonna be commiting arson with Artificer

[molten wedge]

[meager niche]

Fortnite?

[mighty citrus]

The silent is hard :/

[stuck jewel]

Happy Halloween

[molten wedge]

You broke the chain!

[stuck jewel]

I can't do that anyway

[molten wedge]

It’s a sticker from this server

I’m pretty sure I only have basic nitro

[stuck jewel]

I'm stupid

[molten wedge]

I think I got mine from a random thing with Xbox

[molten wedge]

XD

[gleaming oak]

8 days from now until sotv

[stuck jewel]

YEAHHHHHHH

[molten wedge]

Soon we will have gup

[stuck jewel]

Gup console will be realll

[molten wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/guppy-gif-24290807

[stuck jewel]

Gup!
It's Gup.

[molten wedge]

Where is this clip from btw?

[stuck jewel]

Idk

[molten wedge]

@ moderator

[whole apex]

Most likely a dev log

[stuck jewel]

Seems like something hopoo would do

[whole apex]

Also I been injoyinh loader lately

Still die alot but I accidentally recreated the "in the end" meme with her so there's that

[stuck jewel]

The metal gear song?

[lilac salmon]

loader is the one character I feel weird playing with controller

probably because I only my index finger for the shoulder buttons

[whole apex]

Si

https://tenor.com/view/metal-gear-rising-senator-armstrong-gif-25280817

[stuck jewel]

I played the game

[molten wedge]

Someone should make this with mithrix as senator

[stuck jewel]

Hell yeah

[whole apex]

Saddly did it with them^

[stuck jewel]

Fucking twisted scav

[molten wedge]

Did you fucking punch em into the respawn barrier XD

[whole apex]

Yes lol and I didn't mean to xD

[molten wedge]

I mean it works

[whole apex]

Si

[edgy leaf]

Do we have patch notes for the console release?

[stuck jewel]

Probably when it comes out

[edgy leaf]

Wondering if they fixed

• the knockback issues
• fire elites dealing ridiculous damage
• captain shotgun not scoping in correctly

[stuck jewel]

Those patch notes are gonna be LONGGGG

[whole apex]

Hopefully it doesn't wipe our saves

[edgy leaf]

Also would be nice if they just gave us the ability to have unlimited lunar coins lol

[stuck jewel]

They said it shouldn't

[edgy leaf]

I want to main heretic but it's so expensive to play heretic without command on

[lilac salmon]

if I have to unlock slicing winds again I am suing gearbox

[edgy leaf]

it shouldn't 😭

[whole apex]

Wat was that one again?

[lilac salmon]

merc alt special skill

[edgy leaf]

No hit merc challenge

[lilac salmon]

the one you have to do prismaric trials without getting hit once

[whole apex]

Oh sweet Jesus the trails one?

[edgy leaf]

well, below 100% hp*

[whole apex]

Is it even worth the pain for it?

[lilac salmon]

yeag technically you can get hit if you have shields

[edgy leaf]

I think shield gens / topaz can cheat it

[stuck jewel]

Not shield gens

But topaz can

[lilac salmon]

yes cuz the skill is cool. But it's not worth bangin' your head against yhe wall for it, just wait until it's a really easy trial

aka a trial with artifact of command enabled

[whole apex]

My bf told me there is one with command but it's a 1 shot hell

[lilac salmon]

your pfp is adorable and I never heard of someone wanting to main herectic lol, that's cool

[lilac salmon]

it's honestly just rng, I think I just checked in every few days to see if it was an easy trial. It could take you weeks to get one you can do if you're not super good at the game.

[whole apex]

Honestly I like heretic but the pain of the cost and the -health regen hurts alot for me

[whole apex]

The only thing am good at is finding dumb stuff that works and breaks the game....or just insta kills me

[stuck jewel]

That sounds about right

[pale oriole]

I'd be surprised if you got any
they never released them on pc when sotv dropped

[stuck jewel]

No patch notes for the amount of things they need to fix on console?

That's fine I wouldn't read them anyway

[pale oriole]

they all could be summed up by "uhhhhh we rebuilt the game"

[stuck jewel]

Fair lmao

[whole apex]

"Also finally added gup"

[lilac salmon]

hopefully yeah lmao

[lilac salmon]

I don't want to have to fight unkillable elites ever again please

[stuck jewel]

Switched to a different engine rebuilt the game

[whole apex]

[stuck jewel]

Gup!
It's Gup.

[lilac salmon]

they certainly talked a big talk about it, let's see if they walked the walk

I quite frankly just want the dlc content but I wouldn't mind if the game actually started working, that'd be fun

[stuck jewel]

It looks sad 😔

[whole apex]

^the thing am the most exitced for

[stuck jewel]

Well we know they fixed drones

Loaders momentum and proc stuff

[whole apex]

The drone code: be near player
The drones: be against them

[stuck jewel]

PUSH PLAYER

[lilac salmon]

I'm excited for void items and the trophy hunter's tricorn. Being able to get boss items more is so good

[molten wedge]

What you don’t love it when the TC-280 rubs against you like a puppy?

Me and my friends have nicknamed it puppy ai

[whole apex]

Also idk y but giving the equipment drones the egg is fun to watch

[stuck jewel]

Actually we'll probably get the patchnotes on gearboxes website under risk of rain 2

[lilac salmon]

can't wait to not read any of it

I'll be sure to get the cliffnotes from you guys tho, someone here better put in the work

[molten wedge]

His

Yus

[stuck jewel]

Why read when you can experience

First thing I'm doing is running head first into a fire trail

[molten wedge]

Same tbh

[lilac salmon]

as long as I don't get any more unkillable malachites I couldn't care less if the drones are pushing me or not lel

[stuck jewel]

Fair

[molten wedge]

I just want railgunner

[stuck jewel]

YEAHH

I wanna rail my enemies- wait

[molten wedge]

Badum tis

[lilac salmon]

are you insane? you're gonna play a quick scoping sniper on controller!?

[molten wedge]

Yes

[whole apex]

Proto I saw that

[stuck jewel]

I have played only on controller I'll be fine

[molten wedge]

I’ve used a controller to play sniper

[lilac salmon]

you are a much better gamer than me

I can hardly aim as it is, I don't think I'm ever touching rail gunner lmao

[molten wedge]

TF2 sniper btw not sniper from ROR

[molten wedge]

I just really like big numbers

[whole apex]

Honestly I hope the knock back on the railgunners gun is still a thing I want to fly around the map

[molten wedge]

And railgunner has you know deal 12million damage in one shot

[lilac salmon]

it looks fun, if you're able to hit the shots, which I know I'm not lol

[molten wedge]

Fair

[lilac salmon]

imagine trying to hit the weak spots on the big jelly fish boss, it's just the tippy tip of the tentacles

[stuck jewel]

Rookie numbers

[whole apex]

May I introduce u to will o wisp?

[lilac salmon]

I don't think I could do that on mouse and keyboard, let alone on controller

[whole apex]

[molten wedge]

https://youtu.be/jLEKkEksVNw?si=pUXNDbXSvqRWrfPS

[whole apex]

Oooo

[stuck jewel]

The channel for masochists

[whole apex]

I havnt watched him in a couple years

Ama watch this

[molten wedge]

And?

[stuck jewel]

Lmao

Doesn't he literally point that out in that video

[molten wedge]

He released this a while back

https://youtu.be/dC2vYzMwVgc?si=IL2-6MHCSzsJ-6Fl

Every video

[twin kernel]

Yo guys, i found that one dead lemurian

[frail merlin]

[stuck jewel]

Man I'm dead

[twin kernel]

Also, will the update fix the drone ai? I found two TC drones that run and they kept invading my personal space during printing and scrapping

[faint temple]

[lilac salmon]

it's cuteee

[lilac salmon]

f

[errant hill]

it’s annoying but funny

[twin kernel]

not when they knock you off the chain in the cave map, i don’t remember names

or get in your way while trying to escape

[errant hill]

sirens call?

[molten wedge]

Probably depths

Bc it mostly seems like a giant cave

[edgy leaf]

What's the sentiment on Void Fiend btw

top tier survivor or just kinda meh

[molten wedge]

You realize this is the channel of people who can’t play them yet

[edgy leaf]

[lone cave]

From what I’ve seen, they’re pretty high up most tier lists

[edgy leaf]

Here's hoping, captain gaming is getting a bit old lol

I love him but the shotgun not working properly for forever has annoyed the life out of me

[molten wedge]

[lone cave]

God I love free insurance-I mean hacking beacon.

[lilac salmon]

Viend is one of the most op survivors I'm pretty sure

I'm not excited for rail gunner but I kinda am for him

[whole apex]

Ama say this again. One last time I still don't believe they was out of ideas for ror2 just didn't know wat to make next

[lone cave]

Rail gunner has me very excited, Viend even more so

[edgy leaf]

Didn't they just pause production on PC because they wanted console and PC to be on the same patch going forward

[whole apex]

I believe so but am talking about something else

[frail merlin]

Man that cabbage guy will never stop doing the merc achievement even in death

[meager niche]

DAYS FOR THE DLC RELEASE: 8

[molten wedge]

8 gups remain

[meager niche]

[stuck jewel]

8 gups remain

[cunning needle]

[prime sky]

put a jumpscare warning next time please

[frail merlin]

Never give up💪 also ignore my panic aim

[cunning needle]

https://tenor.com/view/ion-surge-gif-25271840

[frail merlin]

Getting spooky here are we now

[cunning needle]

Yeah it's about to get even scarier

[native panther]

https://tenor.com/view/pedro-monkey-puppet-meme-awkward-gif-8259086320683337215

[cunning needle]

Melee Blight Acrid

[meager niche]

That crowbar+fire band and Tesla was dangerous if you were at above 90% hp.

[frail merlin]

I was lucky with the enemies if there was a parent or elder lemerian I would be toast I was basically jumping around and praying to not get hit the whole run

No fire band never activated that surprise me maybe the band work’s different for enemies

[meager niche]

And you got lucky because you dodge the fire band by the direct hit of the mushroom, it was before the activation.

[frail merlin]

Ah i didn’t even notice the fire band

[meager niche]

[meager niche]

Actually, OSP saved you.

[frail merlin]

That one time OSP actually saves you

[lilac salmon]

man 8 days is gonna feel like forever, damn.

I really don't wanna play before the dlc comes out to make sure I'm as hyped as possible for it

[frail merlin]

We have trained years for this 8 days of waiting is nothing at this point

[lament sorrel]

god damn right 🫡

it may feel long but it will never be as bad as the months without any communication, never as bad as seeing someone give up, and it will never be as bad as the god damn "joon" indecent

[meager niche]

8 days is 1% of the days that we waited for an actual release date since it was announced, we can do it boys.

[frail merlin]

[ancient juniper]

Why does the dlc have to come out Wednesday night that's such a bad time

Wait how big will the update be

Like GB

[molten wedge]

Yes

[frail merlin]

It shouldn’t take that much space I think

[stiff bobcat]

Oh god not the Joon

[olive smelt]

Will the base game have all of the game rework fixes/patches available? Or must I buy the dlc to get the full rework of the game?

[meager niche]

The rework is going to be free, available for everyone, the dlc content is the only thing behind a paywall, if you want the new survivors,items, enemies, bosses, etc for your own you need to buy the DLC.

[pale mountain]

Why is that even a question dude

Ofc you have to pay money for bugfixes

In fact it's 5$ for the fire trail fix 10$ for the lunar gank squad fix and 5$ everytime you want your game to actually save

[meager niche]

[mighty citrus]

I heard there is gonna be a cosmetic store with a new currency

Lunar bucks

[stuck jewel]

All hail lunar bucks

[mighty citrus]

Apparently commando is coming to fortnite too

[stuck jewel]

I would buy that and then never play fortnite

[mighty citrus]

Im never touching fortnite

[frail merlin]

That would be hilarious if that happened. I just imagine myself watching some YouTube and a random Fortnite ad comes up, I would have laughed to death.

[mighty citrus]

It seems like a gearbox thing to do, I mean borderlands got a fortnite collab

[stuck jewel]

Back when fortnite was cool

[frail merlin]

Damn Fortnite had a period when it was cool

[stuck jewel]

Yeah it was like prime fortnite though

[mighty citrus]

Prime fortnite was amazing, games terrible now, idc if its still got millions of people playing, shit sucks

[ruby timber]

actually im pretty sure everyone gets the bugfix update justlike on PC, is this right @frank panther ?

[pale mountain]

Yeah I'm just joking

[ruby timber]

oh i should have read up further

carry on nothing to see here

[pale mountain]

That would be beyond EA levels

[mighty citrus]

Silly suncles

[fluid rapids]

What, you're making us pay $5 everytime we want to play 😦 not cool Suncles

[iron crag]

[mighty citrus]

Can't wait for the ingame shop with legendary cosmetics and loot boxes

[pale mountain]

Legendary chest for 10$ poggers

[frail merlin]

Don’t forget multiplayer

[mighty citrus]

You have to pay for the new characters in sotv as well as the dlc

[harsh flame]

Ya’know it’s times like this that help me appreciate Gearbox, Hopoo, Ghost Ship Games, and other devs for structuring their games in ways that feel like they really do care about us and our experience, and not like it’s an income stream that they need to milk dry. I’m sad to say it, but developer studios like Bungie, Activision and Epic are really the flagships for how not to do it lol.

I’ve said it before, and I shall say it again; thank you @frank panther and team

[stuck jewel]

Relogic

[harsh flame]

That name is familiar, who are they again? /what have they developed?

[mighty citrus]

New cod sucks as usual, I miss old zombies 😞

[harsh flame]

HIIII BMR MY FRIEND

[harsh flame]

AMEN my friend

[mighty citrus]

HIIIII MR SUCC

[mild gazelle]

Especially with what bungie did recently

[stuck jewel]

Terraria

[mighty citrus]

Black ops 3 zombies was a time to be alive

[mild gazelle]

I only played BO1

[frail merlin]

If the dlc or rorr don’t get a discount I can’t buy both just saying

[prime sky]

Not cool, sonic!

[harsh flame]

I know this likely belongs in #other-games so I’ll keep it brief here, but yeah Bungie’s business practices and monetizations paired with the decline in quality have turned me away from D2 completely

[mighty citrus]

Criminal

[harsh flame]

I may be biased, but that’s an easy choice if you ask me my friend

[hushed current]

Friendship ended with bungie
Hopoo games is my friend now

[stuck jewel]

Well Preston already said about the discount console wise

[mild gazelle]

Just sell a kidney

[heady heart]

rorr>>>>>

[hushed current]

Real

[mighty citrus]

SOTV FOR THE WIN RAHHHH

[heady heart]

NUH

[hushed current]

Rorr returns is gonna be dope but console waited a year for dlc so...

[harsh flame]

Real and also true, my friend

[mighty citrus]

I am NOT getting rorr on my switch

[harsh flame]

Wait I’m confused

[frail merlin]

Yeah

[harsh flame]

I thought RoRR isn’t coming to console?

[hushed current]

Switch

[mighty citrus]

Its on switch but nothing else

[harsh flame]

Oh lol

[mighty citrus]

I'll get it if it comes to xbox buttt nahhhh switch sucks

[frail merlin]

Switch and pc

[stuck jewel]

Switch is good for these types of games

[harsh flame]

Ty for the clarification my friends

[mighty citrus]

Terrible optimisation from other games has put me off it tbh

[harsh flame]

If I had a Switch, I would likely get it. Otherwise, nah I’m good lol

[frail merlin]

Switch is the console for small game

[stuck jewel]

That's not nintendos fault though

[mighty citrus]

Well I mean just make a console that can actually run your games lol

[hushed current]

Ye I was upset it ain't gonna be on xbox/Playstation(still kinda am) but switch is more coutch game system and rorr is I think gonna be 4 player local

[harsh flame]

I must get back to work now. Have a good rest of your days my friends! Happy Halloween to all!

[mighty citrus]

BYE MR SUCC

[short iris]

Happy Halloween succ!

[stuck jewel]

Wdym? Nintendo is really good at optimizing there own games (except for game freak but that's different) it's the other studios that have no idea

[hushed current]

Adios stay safe out there

[mighty citrus]

Idk, splatoon 3 drops frames from time to time.

[hushed current]

Real

[mighty citrus]

Bowser's fury was crazy as well

[stuck jewel]

Idk

Kirby was fine and so was Ultimate (except for the online but yk) mario wonder looks amazing

[mild gazelle]

Which is more fun for you guys, Proc chains or bands?

[stuck jewel]

Yes

[mild gazelle]

I think bands are neat, I just don’t have blast shower unlocked (it’s the only thing left; I have every ability and item but blast shower)

[stuck jewel]

Isn't blast shower dying to fire?

[mild gazelle]

Yea

[mighty citrus]

Proc chains go hard

[hushed current]

Good question actually

[stuck jewel]

I got that one first lmao

[hushed current]

Atg bands tho

[molten wedge]

My response is Bands bc big number go brrrrr

[stuck jewel]

Well apart from like killing an elite but yk

[mild gazelle]

Every time I try to die to a fire elite something else steals the kill

[meager niche]

You better unlock it because on SoTV it becomes one of the best equipment.

[hushed current]

*see big number *
Neurons activated

[molten wedge]

I think my record is like 143mil

Enough to get a railgunner unlock 143 times over

[stuck jewel]

Lmao

[surreal coral]

192 hours remain

[mighty citrus]

That's wild

[hallow apex]

thank god

[cloud storm]

I think it’s the only thing the update will make more difficult to get

[quartz bay]

me when i use blast shower to negate collapse

[meager niche]

No, it will make it easier, you have to die by the burn debuff no the fire trail and hopoo made on SoTV a rework on burn effects that now scale with proc coefficient and amount of damage from the attack, this means that enemies have a easier time to kill you with the burn debuff the longer the run goes.

[meager niche]

That or this.
https://youtu.be/b7afoX5y3NI?si=NlsxthDR1SSDKoX_

[quartz bay]

oh yea! i saw that video yesterday

[frank jacinth]

How much money should I add to my account for the dlc? Like is it 100% confirmed that it'll be on sale at release

[lone cave]

Windette is how I intend to get the Railgunner 1 million damage achievement done in 8 days

[meager niche]

At least 15$ dollars, there may be a sale at release but we need a confirmation from the gearbox team or wait for the release for a surprise.

[frail merlin]

It better get a sale

[edgy leaf]

Will they be based enough for a free release

[coarse copper]

definitely not they're still a company, they have expenditures they need to recoup from 2 years of payless development

[frail merlin]

[twin kernel]

love the new gup style Tilted

also omg they removed the 15 second slow mode

yaaaaas

[twin kernel]

Yay i dont have to yell about oppression anymore

[coarse copper]

You still can if you want to (⁠◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕⁠✿⁠)

[odd juniper]

I have friends on console who id love to play games with, but I’m on PC. Is there any chance cross platform co-op might be available when consoles get survivor of the void

[harsh flame]

I’m not 100% sure on this, my friend, but from what I understand Gearbox has not confirmed or denied crossplay to be a potential addition in the future, however they have said it will not be coming with SOTV

@odd juniper ^

[coarse copper]

Basically, crossplay hard

Genuine pain in the ass

[odd juniper]

Thanks

[odd juniper]

Fr. I’ll always be waiting

[twin kernel]

man i wonder who that friend could be

[odd juniper]

Not u. I’ve never met you in my whole life for sure.

[twin kernel]

I am rebranding as Gup until the gup festival

To match the other gup enthusiasts

[twin kernel]

I wonder if gearbox would even be up for the challenge

[coarse copper]

Maybe later

[twin kernel]

Hopefully, although i assume they have plans for another dlc first

[paper copper]

could be a update to come out before another dlc, like both release at the same date

[frail merlin]

Gearbox are probably gonna do a normal update first or another dlc for money

[terse garnet]

My game just crashed on ROR2 console

[frail merlin]

As expected

[long ivy]

My console just ROR2 on game crash

[winter tinsel]

8 days...

[winter tinsel]

thats normal

[compact umbra]

i hope with the dlc they fix the crashing, im playing on series x and i cant even make it past stage 10 without crashing

[winter tinsel]

i hope they fix at least half of the bugs

because god theres so many

[frail merlin]

You must be playing a different game even my switch doesn’t crash on stage 10

[frozen cobalt]

Imp dlc when?

[frail merlin]

Somewhere in a far away universe

[frozen cobalt]

I must have it.

I’ve hade enough with the gup memes, the truth is that GUP is low tier trash. GUP lacks any cool design and is a basic nobody. Gup is just a discount slime. Gup picked an ugly yellow orange instead of a different color. Gup is worthless.

[frail merlin]

😦

[frozen cobalt]

Yes the true best enemy’s are actually… lemurians and imps. They can actually stand/float, they have intellect unlike stupid ugly gup, they fire projectiles and can attack with melee abilitys making them formidable foes unlike gup or should I say gupage(garbage but gup) imps can teleport which is cool, elder lemurians can help the smaller ones by not being gup. Meanwhile gup just make more gup. In short gup is being overthrown.

[terse garnet]

I trancended space and time and it crashed

[frail merlin]

What are you on about beetle is truly the pinnacle of evolution cause it’s the only enemy i don’t hate in ror2

[long ivy]

My favorite enemy is jellyfish bc WEAVE

[spiral bay]

Hello RoR2 console chat. I was directed here by the main chat. I am a new player requesting assistance in improving my gameplay on huntress. I have 4 gameplay clips of the same run that I would like to be reviewed. Many runs, this one included, fail at stage 4 or 5. Please tell me what I did wrong and how to improve.

[spiral bay]

This is clip 1 of 4. I will post the others shortly due to my slow upload rate.

[long ivy]

My first gripe is you’re 8 minutes in on stage 2 on monsoon difficulty, in ROR time is everything, you wanna loot fast, get in get out

It’s not TERRIBLE but I base myself to 3-5 minutes a stage on the normal difficulty

On monsoon I use the speed runner mindset

[frozen cobalt]

I wouldn’t have been so risky with printing, losing your crit is not good and you could’ve lost your crowbar. I don’t like to print until I’ve found a scraper but that just me.

And for the first vid I would’ve looked for more items, because cautious slug was the only good thing (leptons nice but not the best thing).

[lone cave]

Time is very important, but I wouldn’t say it’s everything. If you force yourself to rush, you will just die and die again

[long ivy]

I’m seeing another GLARING issue, your only healing was this item is only good on engineer for the most part, I would’ve prioritized healing items from multishops and probably scrapped the bungus for that syringe printer you came across

[long ivy]

It works for me, but I like bandit so bosses aren’t really an issue for me

[frozen cobalt]

Also you should’ve picked the ukulele instead of band.

[frozen cobalt]

Honestly I think people overstate how important time is, I do play with sacrifice a lot but even when I don’t I find getting items to be the most important thing.

[frail merlin]

Tbh I thought he was playing very well for a new player like his item was trash and still managed pretty good like just playing on monsoon generally is improvement also I don’t think you should rush the stage so much because time<item also I think he should unlock the huntress alt abilities and give it a go

Bdw I think the tips and strat people gives are but overwhelming in this game so I think learning by yourself to play is best (my opinion)

[frozen cobalt]

Really just finding a character that you like and are good with is a big factor. For example, I’m pretty good with most characters but let me play Rex and instant god runs.

[frail merlin]

I like myself some variety

Meaning I dislike 3 survivors and play the rest

[frozen cobalt]

Only characters I dislike are acrid and engi (I just find him boring to play, turret simulator is nice but not what I wanna do).

[frail merlin]

Fair enough I just dislike slow characters in general

[frail merlin]

Ok if I counted right he had 37 items on the 22:45 min mark meaning he had a speed of getting 1.65 item per min which if I compare to some of my runs is pretty good it’s just that he didn’t manage his item that good or just bad rng

[silent python]

https://youtu.be/aJWfwbG93Z8?si=0wlQPUdNx39Rci7i Please watch this starting at 32:50 if you still think time per stage is hyper important for a run to be good

[frail merlin]

Just ignore the giant eclipse thumbnail

[silent python]

Yeah this applies to every single difficulty, and lower difficulties even more so since theres less scaling

[frail merlin]

Bdw shouldn’t technically the 5 min rule just make you run more rng dependent and limit your skills

[silent python]

Yeah restricting yourself to a certain time per stage is horrible in general. Getting every item while being time efficient is the only thing you should care about

It was only a concept like a couple years ago when the game was simpler with less macro decisions like scrappers, recycler, card, tricorn. And even still not a good concept lol

[frail merlin]

Yeah but even tho the 5 min rule still exist😔

[spiral bay]

Did the healing pulse flower not count as healing? Also not sure if I found any scrappers. Thank you for the input.

[spiral bay]

What is item management and how do I do it? Thank you for the input.

[spiral bay]

May I ask why? I felt that wisp + crowbar handled crowds quite well, and I think I needed single target.

[frozen cobalt]

You already had an ice band so all you were doing was upping the damage, which wasn’t really needed. However that ukulele would given a huge amount of aoe with glaive and arrow rain.

[frail merlin]

It’s basically using printer and scrapper or this if you are feeling lucky

[frozen cobalt]

In short stacking bands is good but not when your offered aoe.

Since stacking bands doesn’t lower the cooldown.

[silent python]

Nah bands are a good call lol

[frail merlin]

Yeah fr

[spiral bay]

I see. I think I forgot I picked that first one up.

[frozen cobalt]

If I have an ice band I’m not grabbing another when I have a ukulele in the same choice pool.

[spiral bay]

Thank you.

[frail merlin]

Also why did you even mention this

[silent python]

Always stack bands chat, always

[spiral bay]

Always?

[frail merlin]

Especially on console

[frozen cobalt]

Because he asked why I thought he should’ve picked the ukulele over the second ice band.

[silent python]

Unless you can't proc em

[frozen cobalt]

I would understood if it was fire but ice ain’t as good.

[spiral bay]

Was unaware. Noted.

[frail merlin]

No it’s common knowledge that stacking band doesn’t lower the cooldown shouldn’t you have mention something than a that

[silent python]

Also not always true lol

[frozen cobalt]

He said he’s a new player so he may have not known that.

[silent python]

@spiral bay maybe don't go with everyones suggestions here cus time doesn't matter and some item opinions aren't true

[spiral bay]

I did read a lot on the bands, but I appreciate the sentiment.

[silent python]

Play the game and do what works for you

[long ivy]

My fault I came in here spitting opinions

[frail merlin]

Wrong one

[frozen cobalt]

Ice is still good but if I can pick something useful over a second one I will.

[frail merlin]

Ice band scales ridiculously with crowbar (on console)

[frozen cobalt]

Also I play Rex so that may affect my band bias. As all I have to do is my flower plus either my secondary or my other ability to do lots of damage.

[frail merlin]

Even Rex could have used

[silent python]

Realizing your bias is good

[frozen cobalt]

Yeah that’s a nice combo, if you can get it. It’s a lot easier to just grab my fire band and watch enemies get butchered in the flower field.

[long ivy]

I also haven’t played the game I’m weeks because fire elites irritate me

[frail merlin]

Well I did specially mention that the ice band and crowbar combo is a console glitch and shouldn’t work that good on pc

[frozen cobalt]

I honestly feel disappointed that the game may be fixed since it’ll be to easy. Though there’s a good chance we just get new bugs like maybe 8 second long ice freeze from those elites.

[frail merlin]

That would actually be a more stupid glitch than fire elite

[frozen cobalt]

Triple procing lightning elites waiting for their time to shine. (They’ll be our new fire elites)

[spiral bay]

What is bugged about fire elites?

[frozen cobalt]

They do an absurd amount of burn damage on console.

[frail merlin]

I have a bunch of clips just for these moments

[frozen cobalt]

We essentially have the hardest version of the game.

[wintry solar]

Can you cleanse a meteor shower?

In a pool

[frail merlin]

Switch has some exclusive glitches and it being laggy so just saying…

[wintry solar]

I’m guessing not, but I can’t find one in my stage and I want a pearl-

[frail merlin]

Yes you can any lunar equipment also work the same

[spiral bay]

Understood. Query, how do you end up moving so quickly? So few items in the game give mobility for me.

[frozen cobalt]

We got the hardest hardest version.

[frail merlin]

😔

[frozen cobalt]

Red whip and goat hooves help.

[wintry solar]

Ok, I was just asking bc it’s an equip. Thank you!

[spiral bay]

How do I unlock these?

[frail merlin]

I think you should have them already

Also

[spiral bay]

Hm. I think I've seen the whip, but never the hooves.

[frozen cobalt]

I don’t remember the challenges but they should be on wiki if you have to unlock them. Goat hooves just give a speed boost at all times while red whip works if yo I haven’t taken damage for a little.

[frail merlin]

Check in your log book

[spiral bay]

Understood. One moment.

[frozen cobalt]

Red whips speed buff is big, also wax quail is that little bird thign the other guy showed it boosts you toward whenever you jump. (Only your first jump off the ground though.)

[frail merlin]

The wax is good for survivor like engi who can’t dodge that easy

And red whip is just good for running and looting the stage not really in combat

[frozen cobalt]

Though if you like huntress movement isn’t the biggest worry since you already are pretty fast. (Getting faster is still nice though)

[spiral bay]

I have seen the whip once. I do not see the silhouette of the quail or hooves.

[long ivy]

Also when we get sotv wax quail works on all our !!!!

[spiral bay]

Checking the unlock criteria.

[frozen cobalt]

Me after I shrine of order and get 40 red whips.

[frail merlin]

Ok to unlock goat hooves you gotta fail on the shrine of chance 2 or 3 times in a row so basically you are very lucky

[spiral bay]

I have not met either unlock criteria.

[spiral bay]

Understood. I take them often, strange.

The quail seems infeasible without the hoof or a lucky drink printer.

[frail merlin]

Infeasible?

[spiral bay]

Yes.

[frail merlin]

I just had to Google that

[spiral bay]

I see.

[frail merlin]

I think it’s works pretty well without any speed item backing it but huntress probably need it the least

[spiral bay]

I meant its acquisition. Not its effectiveness as an item.

I see where the confusion lies, my mistake.

[frail merlin]

Ok I think I understand now

[spiral bay]

I shall continue the search for a crowbar printer and try to get good enough to unlock ballista. I will be stepping away for a moment.

[frail merlin]

The alt dash is very good also

It makes dodging much better

The crowbar achievement is actually for the alt days I remember

[tribal rover]

Red whip procs when not attacking and not getting hit

Personally I always scrap it unless it's a depressingly slow run

[hallow apex]

me too

all they need to do is rework red whip to work like cautious slug

then it’s such a better item and acthally makes sense and is consistent

[tribal rover]

I'm just happy taking free scrap

Give me bad items so I don't have to think about what I should get rid of for the moon soups

[harsh flame]

Wait how does Cautious Slug differ from Red Whip mechanically?

[hallow apex]

yes

pretty much if you attack with whip you will lose the speed

[harsh flame]

Is the same not true for slug?

[hallow apex]

but something like idk bandits utility don’t work cause it does damage despite mostly being used for movement while fucking engi MISSILES work

[hallow apex]

nah it works as long as you don’t get hit

[harsh flame]

Huh, I did not realize that! I like items like that, rewarding you for being able to dodge and whatnot. Makes me think of Dead Cells lol

Thanks for the clarification, Jacon my friend!

[hallow apex]

ofc

[hallow apex]

if only red whip did this (if any gearbox devs are looking at chat take notes)

[harsh flame]

cough cough Preston cough

|| (ily Preston ) ||

[spiral bay]

Question. What do I do when the teleporter is in an enclosed hallway and 3 Elder lemurians spawn during the fight?

I feel like I got screwed over.

Is there a way to make sure bosses and elders not spawn on floor 4?

[stuck jewel]

Die.

[spiral bay]

Ah.

[hallow apex]

try hard

[hallow apex]

LMFAO WHAT

i’m sorry that sounded mean but let’s be fr stage 4 wouldn’t exactly be fair if bosses or elites and elders didn’t spawn

[quartz bay]

step 1: dont get hit

[hallow apex]

pretty much yeah

[lament bramble]

Me after ror console dlc

[reef plinth]

I DID IT BOIS

[stray lance]

NICE!

[sly thorn]

Do eclipse

[unique sequoia]

All survivors on lock

Now yo do the other item unlocks

[reef plinth]

No I don't think I will

[sly thorn]

You will?!?

[reef plinth]

No I won't do it yet

Just don't feel ready yet

[sly thorn]

E1 is pretty much just monsoon with added flavor

[unique sequoia]

If hopoo adds new survivors, which onwz you guys think would be lit?

[sly thorn]

I am a huge stan of red plane dlc, so maybe a reformed black imp would be cool

[reef plinth]

Idk probably a few survivors from ror returns

I'm not the smartest guy in the book

[tribal rover]

Waiting for gearbox to make Goku official

[tardy ruin]

My apologies for my tardiness! I’ve been very busy with Halloween. Her name is Hydreigon!

[tight glade]

step 2: die anyways

[little otter]

We are approaching the day

[harsh flame]

No worries my friend! I hope you are having the happiest of Halloweens! You and Hydreigon both!

[tender shoal]

a week

[frail merlin]

Step 3: search for the dlc

[quartz bay]

step 4: die to collapse

[frail merlin]

Still better than dying to fire trails or overloading

[wild thistle]

HERE WE GO THIS TIME NEXT WEEK

[frail merlin]

No way actually real

We are one week away from greatness (in my time zone)

[tardy ruin]

I had a blast as did she! She had a nice little Halloween snack and her costume was immaculate

[undone vale]

Can someone explain

[pale mountain]

console

[frail merlin]

Lol

[prime sky]

used those abilities so fast the game couldn't even load them visually!

what a gamer!

[frail merlin]

Causally uses 20 abilities under 3 seconds

[dire bane]

I think everyone here got that on their first merc run

[mild gazelle]

Real

[twin kernel]

what’s going on today my gup gaymers

hope you all had a wonderfully spooky night

[forest sinew]

death to all gups

[upbeat portal]

Risky rainy on my nintendo switchy!1!1!1!1!

[frail merlin]

I can hear my switch cry of desperation every time I open up risk of rain 2

[upbeat portal]

Wait really? For me its fine

My friends might actually play ror2 now

[undone vale]

I’m him

[frail merlin]

No I was just joking only problem I have is multiplayer the lag in there can reach insane levels

[upbeat portal]

Oh yeah multiplayer has some serious delay

[frail merlin]

[stuck jewel]

Snow.

[surreal coral]

Dawn of the first day.

168 hours remain.

[frail merlin]

[wintry ivy]

[forest pumice]

[cunning needle]

Delay incoming

[cobalt dawn]

dont even with that

i actually think they do have a chance of doing that

[cunning needle]

[cobalt dawn]

"due to unfortunate circumstances we have found that half the game was somehow deleted and we got to redo the whole thing"

[cunning needle]

November 5th

Delay due to bug or some shit

[cobalt dawn]

if that happens im actually just not even gonna bother with the game anymore

[cunning needle]

Or they launch on the 8th and it's buggy for like a month

[cobalt dawn]

i rather have the dlc and it being buggy than it not being a thing for like 2 more years

if its playable idc

[cunning needle]

Good news is they said they're continuing development so we will very likely get either a new DLC entirely or just small content updates

[cobalt dawn]

yea i kinda figured that they would of done that

hopefully new skills for everyone

[cunning needle]

I hope to god we get new skins

[stiff bobcat]

I want ancient scepter from risk of rain 1 so bad

[ancient juniper]

Is it 7 days or 8 days from November 1st

Like do u count the one or no

[frail merlin]

In a week

[lament sorrel]

just a week away!

[molten wedge]

Is there a name for the mini gups? If not they are now guppies

[forest sinew]

gip or geep one of the two i don rmbr

[meager niche]

Gup->Geep->Gip.

[molten wedge]

Petition to rename Gips guppies

[meager niche]

The tiniest ones are Gip.

[lament sorrel]

i hope a group of gups is called a goop

[frail merlin]

The all mighty gip

[lament sorrel]

a goop of gups

[cunning needle]

Everyone on console when the update drops on a fuckin Wednesday and they have work or school

[heavy current]

Estimate on how much the DLC would be? 🤔

[stuck jewel]

1 hour and 10 minutes before I get off

[stuck jewel]

15$ same on steam

[heavy current]

Bet 🤝

[stuck jewel]

At least im pretty sure that's what they said

[frail merlin]

I would be complaining of it releasing on a Wednesday if it wasn’t on 8pm

[stuck jewel]

Mines 2pm

[harsh flame]

That is wonderful my friend! I’m glad you both had such a great Halloween! What was Hydreigon’s costume?

ONE WEEK AWAY MY FRIENDS!!!

[stuck jewel]

ONE WEEK AAAAAAAAAA

[versed temple]

[stuck jewel]

No

Soon though

[cunning needle]

Can someone put me into a coma until Christmas

[frail merlin]

It feels like I go into a coma every time a brass contraption hits me

[mighty citrus]

Succ I only have one lesson during the release day yahooo

[stuck jewel]

BONK

[wintry ivy]

That's what it feels like

[stuck jewel]

Obviously spiky balls hurt

[prime sky]

Joyous day

[stuck jewel]

Day joyous

[meager niche]

DAYS FOR THE DLC RELEASE: 7

[stuck jewel]

yad suoyoJ

[stuck jewel]

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[harsh flame]

Less goooo that’s what we like to hear

I have a question for all friends will to offer input

Am I alone in feeling like Bandit starts off REALLY strong, but then falls off in the lunar stage? Especially if using the shotgun instead of the rifle

[mighty citrus]

I don't really play bandit enough

[surreal coral]

She Risked on my Rain until I Returnsed

[surreal coral]

No, bandit goes hard, especially with shotgun

That's just my experience tho

Guys, I think Gup had a bad day today

He looks a little grumpy

[mighty citrus]

Jeebus

[frail merlin]

The hell is this gup event gonna be about

[upbeat ore]

Celebration of anniversary and potentially news for the future of ror2

[versed temple]

wonder if mouse and keyboard support will still be supported when SOTV launches

[mighty citrus]

Pretty sure they said it wasn't here before

[chilly viper]

it's almost here guys

ALMOST

[native pebble]

7 DAYS

[chilly viper]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAA

i'll finally get to play railgunner

[frail merlin]

Yeah but why gup it has to be something related to gup right?

I will be expecting a special gup game mode

[olive crown]

Is there a way to port my pc save to playstation?

[upbeat ore]

Because gup Is baller

[stiff bobcat]

[lone cave]

Four railgunner Simulacrum to unlock Viend

Just speedrun the character stuff lol

[frail merlin]

I will unlock everything without command just vanilla monsoon

I am already doing that on my second account

[lone cave]

Agreed. None of this command bullshit

[meager niche]

I am in.

[frail merlin]

I’m gonna screen shot this for my fish brain

[lone cave]

Same honestly lol

[twin kernel]

[ancient juniper]

When did I miss Halloween

[twin kernel]

November 8th for me

[stuck jewel]

Yesterday

[ancient juniper]

There were no decorations wtf

[frail merlin]

Man is living in a rock

[stuck jewel]

Not under IN

[twin kernel]

spooky day was hella fun, how were yours?

[stuck jewel]

There were like no trick or treaters

[ancient juniper]

Oh NOOOOOO

[frail merlin]

I see no problem with being in a rock

[ancient juniper]

It's nnn

[stuck jewel]

School Halloween stuff was fun

[frail merlin]

https://tenor.com/view/oh-no-oh-no-anyway-gif-18887547

[twin kernel]

i went to so many parties, i got to dress up as a witch, pumpkin, and a bat

i planned it all out

[grim stream]

Anyone else's game keep crashing mid run

Kinda annoying

[ancient juniper]

Now I'm sad I missed it

[ancient juniper]

Like loops or no

[frail merlin]

I knew it was Halloween but i didn’t do anything anyway

[stuck jewel]

I thought dlc achievements only show up when you buy the dlc?

[twin kernel]

aw, that sucks

[grim stream]

No the run just says disconnected and we both get booted

[stuck jewel]

Went to school. That was about it

[grim stream]

No lag or anything

[stuck jewel]

Yup that happens

[ancient juniper]

No they always are there as a completion guy it's always sad when u don't wanna spend any money

[twin kernel]

having school on halloween probably sucks

[frail merlin]

Tbh Halloween is my least favorite of all the holiday and my neighbors was also the same so it didn’t really suck for me

[ancient juniper]

Halloween is a bit mid can't lie

[stuck jewel]

Idk I saw some pretty cool costumes

[ancient juniper]

The costumes are funny tho

[twin kernel]

):

[frail merlin]

Yeah that fun also I am to picky about my candy to enjoy some stranger candy

[frank jacinth]

I wore makeup for Halloween while giving out candy. Truly was one of God's silliest of clowns

[ancient juniper]

I buy my own bags and just eat them but not this year 😦

[stuck jewel]

Nows the perfect time to

[frail merlin]

I can still feel my teeth hurting because of the candy (bough my own candy for Halloween)

[stuck jewel]

Candy goes on sale

[twin kernel]

I love clown costumes

[ancient juniper]

How do I cancel the captain's special drop things idk what to call them ability

[twin kernel]

Sprint i think

[coarse copper]

sprint yeah

[ancient juniper]

Thanks

[twin kernel]

no problem

[frail merlin]

Run

[frank jacinth]

I've been drawing and obsessing over clowns for a while.

[coarse copper]

have you drawn a Pomni yet

[twin kernel]

cute drawing

[ancient juniper]

Clowns are scary as hell why do people like them so much

[frail merlin]

Yes

[frank jacinth]

The day the pilot came out, 4 different people asked to commission me to draw NSFW pomni

[frank jacinth]

Clowns are cool. They don't have to be scary

[twin kernel]

sorry, what is pomni?

[ancient juniper]

I have never seen a not scary clown in my life can't lie

[coarse copper]

so how much money did you make

[frank jacinth]

I refused

[twin kernel]

I wish i was good enough to do commissions, but I’m kinda subpar

[coarse copper]

because of morals or just busy?

[frail merlin]

It’s that girl from that YouTube serie that was called the amazing digital circus

[frank jacinth]

My cult of the lamb commissions on the other hand...

[frank jacinth]

Both

I'm actually working on my own pilot atm

[twin kernel]

oh, ive never heard of that

[ancient juniper]

That's cool hope it goes well

How do you make those like drawings or something

[frank jacinth]

Well for my pilot, I made model sheets of various important things, did rough storyboards, traced them over a graphics tablet into an animatic, and then polished everything digitally.

[ancient juniper]

That sounds very fancy goddamn are you a professional or something

[frank jacinth]

I mean, I wouldn't say I as good as stuff like traditional disney age but I've been animating for years

[frail merlin]

Gotta always appreciate a animator or artist when I see one👍

[ancient juniper]

Nice would love to see it when it gets finished

[twin kernel]

does anyone know if the gup festival stream will be a vod afterward?

[ancient juniper]

I doubt they would delete it cause of timezones and that

[coarse copper]

they've been pretty good about making all streams into videos

[twin kernel]

okay, thank you

[ancient juniper]

If I were to get shatter spleen while I got 100% crit and 100% bleed should I scrap the gri tips or do they do an extra stack per shot

[stuck jewel]

A character from a new indie show pilot

Called the amazing digital circus

[coarse copper]

do you currently have 100% bleed and 100% crit with a spleen?

[twin kernel]

why do you hang out in console chat sometimes even though you have a pc Tilted?

[ancient juniper]

No but I did once in a god run and didn't crap bleed and was wondering if it was the right thing

I lost that run because my smoke alarm went off cus of burnt panini's

[coarse copper]

Because I'm a cop.

[twin kernel]

hm, i dont like cops

But you’re pretty nice, so this is a predicament

anyways, what are the classes in rorr that arent in ror2?

[sweet edge]

Mul-T, Rex, Captain, Void Fiend, Railgunner!

and

[meager niche]

Right now bleed from and bleed from crit are separated, this means that if you have 100% tri-tip and 100* crit with spleen you apply 2 stacks of bleed per attack, this will change on SoTV update.

[ancient juniper]

Pilot scrapper and enforcer? And chef No clue on last one and I know I'm missing some

[ancient juniper]

Oh thanks

[twin kernel]

think that’s a little backwards friend

[sweet edge]

oh I misread that -_-

[twin kernel]

alright, thank you

[sweet edge]

Miner/Sniper/Chef/Han-D/Enforcer

[twin kernel]

[sweet edge]

and obv Drifter/Pilot

[coarse copper]

[ancient juniper]

I was so wrong jeez

[coarse copper]

Sniper technically isn't in RoR2 because it's Railgunner

[frail merlin]

Didn’t ror1 only have duo as multiplayer?

[sweet edge]

RoR was up to 4 by default, but you could edit a text file and make it...a lot more

[frail merlin]

#ror2-console-discussion

[upbeat ore]

Huh

[meager niche]

[twin kernel]

[frail merlin]

Yeah I was right in switch you can only play with 2 player online

[twin kernel]

another reason to not play the switch version

[sweet edge]

oh, switch lol

i wouldn't count that as the definitive version

[coarse copper]

RoRR will be its own reason to not play the switch version in a hot minute

[twin kernel]

damn, i forgot switch was getting it while i wont be

[frail merlin]

Man what do you all expect from me there’s a reason why am here in this chat😭

[twin kernel]

sorry?

[upbeat ore]

What about the other console versions?

[twin kernel]

no plans so far

[sweet edge]

yeah but you asked how many people could play multiplayer. you can do 4 people locally! that's mp!

and ps4 wasn't limited to 2

[frail merlin]

I’m just saying I don’t even have the option to play rorr on the pc

I did actually do a 3 player run on local with my brother and it’s horrible like not even eclipse can compare to it

[twin kernel]

I imagine local would really suck

[upbeat ore]

I consider ror1 harder than ror2

[frail merlin]

Fr I can’t get the hang of dodging in that game

[twin kernel]

hi Tree

[white quarry]

Hello

[twin kernel]

did you make that?

[white quarry]

nio

was uploading it from my phone so i could save it to my laptop

so i could do this

[twin kernel]

engi vs. arti mains

[harsh flame]

I’ve not tried Artificer yet, I’ve heard mixed to negative reviews tho. @twin kernel I see you’ve got her on your list of mains. What say you on this matter, my friend?

[twin kernel]

i believe she turns away many newer or less experienced players because of her cooldown cycling playstyle

you have to really feel the rhythm of when to burst out a lot of damage or to chip away while dodging

[harsh flame]

Is it similar to the cooldown/kit cycle present in Merc? Playing around resets and Expose debuffs?

[twin kernel]

i also love the verticality and freeze executions

[twin kernel]

I can’t really say, I haven’t used merc much. I’ve only gotten him to eclipse 2 because i just couldn’t bare playing him longer

However i am extremely biased

[coarse copper]

She doesn't have resets and her primary is also on a cooldown so it's more about knowing how to use your skills in a useful order

[harsh flame]

Did you not enjoy Merc’s playstyle?

[coarse copper]

At least 2 of your skills should CONSTANTLY be on cooldown

[twin kernel]

Not at all

[coarse copper]

She's not like Merc

[harsh flame]

Interesting, thank you my friend Tilted!

[frail merlin]

I have never seen a non bias ror2 player

[twin kernel]

thank you for explaining since i cant :}

[coarse copper]

I really enjoy Artificer

[twin kernel]

I recognize that merc can be really good, i just cannot master his tech

[frail merlin]

I think you have the wrong person

[coarse copper]

Ion Surge bad

[twin kernel]

i feel like a lot of the more experienced players enjoy arti more

[frail merlin]

I have 430+ hour and still hate arti

[hallow apex]

arti is fun but it depends on the mood

[twin kernel]

well, i never said i was right

[twin kernel]

hot take

[hallow apex]

merc, mando, bandit, and some others are ones i can pick up and always have fun with

[frail merlin]

Fair enough

[hallow apex]

arti is not but she is still so fun

[twin kernel]

or are you just trying to mess with me?

lol

[coarse copper]

Ion Surge is objectively a good skill but I just fuckin hate it and what it's done to her

Ion Surge arti is BORING

[hallow apex]

rather be able to fly then not

[frail merlin]

[frail merlin]

[hallow apex]

shit got a unibrow

[twin kernel]

you’re looking at it backwards

[hallow apex]

ik it just looks funny

[twin kernel]

lol

[twin kernel]

Without the skill, it just kind of makes her floating passive mostly useless

[coarse copper]

you kids have it easy these days

[frail merlin]

There Is a lack of arti eclipse 8 video on YouTube meaning like the 2 YouTube who does them

[coarse copper]

back when I started playing arti she didn't even HAVE a passive

she was just 4 skills and a dream

and she was FUN

[twin kernel]

”back when i…”

Old man

[quartz bay]

tilted just perfers arson over flying which i do have to agree with

[frail merlin]

I have never liked the just float in the air and shoot bombs

[coarse copper]

she didn't even have Ion Surge for a while

she had just the floating passive for a hot minute

people had like

[twin kernel]

yeah well ignition tank doesnt exist yet for me

[coarse copper]

float tech

they got good at manipulating drop times

[twin kernel]

You don’t need to be floating the entire time, use it as an escape or positioning tool

and movement obviously

[frail merlin]

Yeah that what I do but I get way to much hate saying I don’t play artificer “efficiently”

[twin kernel]

damn you really are old, ancient even

[coarse copper]

I'm a moderator for a reason

[coarse copper]

ye but then you don't have a flamethrower anymore

[white quarry]

[spiral bay]

I'm on a loop of the snow stage, but cannot locate the obelisk, any advice? I'd rather not die here, I have my merc unlock riding on this.

Teleporter boss is dead, just need locations.

[twin igloo]

Also just a heads up, I recomend doing it again but taking the beads lunar for an interesting surprise in the future

Just putting it out their

[spiral bay]

First completed run. Is it abnormal that I never touched a printer?

[twin igloo]

I wonder what day the Aussies will het console dlc

[pale mountain]

Make sure to switch around some random loadouts and go to the main menu before closing the game

[spiral bay]

I do not plan to close the game. Artificer is unlocked at last.

[pale mountain]

Aight cause autosaves are not reliable atm

[tardy ruin]

I got her a small strawberry hat so she was a strawberry frog!

[meager niche]

Just had a 31 stage commando run and beat my most damage dealt record by more than 3x but of all enemies it was against a malachite urchin lol

Also managed to kill mithrix

[lone cave]

Frawberry

[unique sequoia]

Hell naw. Low Tier captain

[frail merlin]

Actually I don’t even have a xbox..

[lone cave]

I ain’t opening links from someone on discord. No offense intended, but I’d just rather be safe

I don’t care how paranoid I am. I ain’t taking any risks

[frail merlin]

Someone didn’t like all that links

[mighty citrus]

I checked it and it seemed legit, but joining the server without roles or anything and just randomly putting codes in the channel is so sketchy bruh 💀

[frail merlin]

It looked pretty sketchy on the outside

[torpid garden]

I just beat mithrix!!

[dawn tree]

Migrith

[hollow furnace]

meg griffin

[spiral bay]

Query, how do you loot safely on later stages? I was killed on my first run of artificer because I was swarmed while scrapping.

[frail merlin]

Always scrap after you have done the tp when everything is dead

Standing still always will get you killed in some way in this game

[karmic glade]

So are we trusting gearbox to not create 40 new game breaking bugs on the 8th

What y'all thinking about it

[cunning needle]

I don't like how so many people immediately did a 180 on their gearbox stance the second it was announced

But who knows maybe it'll be a good update

[mighty citrus]

In all fairness gearbox had nothing to do with the last console build, I trust in them

[karmic glade]

Oh? Why do you say that

[mighty citrus]

The team worked their hardest to get this out, whilst providing us with as much news as possible, they also delayed it to make it even better

[karmic glade]

Wasn't gearbox making the console version this whole time?

Why do u say they didn't have anything to do with the last update? Is that not true?

[stiff bobcat]

Yes and no

[mighty citrus]

The latest console build we are in right now had nothing to do with gearbox, that was a different team

[karmic glade]

Wait what lmao

[mighty citrus]

Gearbox bought the rights to ror2 later on and started development on sotv

[karmic glade]

We're they making the console port the whole time? Or has gearbox always made it, until the last update?

[mighty citrus]

For console anyways

[stiff bobcat]

This will help I think

[karmic glade]

Yeah but they've always had the console port I thought
