[short iris]

I wasn't happy in my life until dianlo

[frail merlin]

Just because you said that I’m gonna lock the hell in and do the impossible

[short iris]

[wispy crypt]

Exactly....

[frail merlin]

Hell yeah, screw Diablo I don’t need it

[median wraith]

Built different

[noble furnace]

Yesterday I had the worst run I ever had just because of larva family event on the mushrooms stage 4.

[chilly viper]

It lags on no split screen too, its a roguelike...

If the problem is lags then they should just delete ps4 ror2

[wispy crypt]

?

Theres a difference between lag

And slideshow mode pre loop

Crash resistence is a factor too

[noble furnace]

That

Like, you can play fine between stage 1 to 8 but once you go above that because of the nature of the game, you need to get more items to progress through stages and more items the more effects happens and the more effects the more you force the limit of the console.

[frail merlin]

From what I understand the game suffer heavy lag when there a lot of entities, particles effects and projectiles. That why atg and fire work is like a lag machine when there enough.

[noble furnace]

Yep

[frail merlin]

But switch seems to suffer extra heavily from entity. In this run I let the lemerian spawn from the family event I got and you can see on the clip how the lag will progressively disappear when I kill them.

I also have a theory that’s it’s the entity only on your screen

[noble furnace]

And if I am honest, it's expected that switch is the weakest console, obviously, so the limit from where it starts to struggle is less than the other console.

[frail merlin]

I just didn’t expect it to be entity specifically because it’s seems pretty good(for the switch) when it’s handling giant proc chain and stuff like that

[short iris]

Oh my GOD they butchered pot rolling so bad

[noble furnace]

If I am honest, I never do pot rolling on my runs I just brute force it by weird shenanigans or luck, I apply that all the time especially on the previous updates before SotS because pots where immovable, so I don't know how bad they are right now.

[short iris]

They're so bad.

45 minute stage 3 death

Because it genuinely went from pretty much all spots being viable iff you're good enough to not being bale to roll up a 10 degree curve upwrd it's so asssssss

I LOVE HAVING SKILL CEALINGS AND PLAYER EXPRESSION REMOVED FROM MY VIDEO GAMES RAAAWWRR

[junior perch]

I just found out the hard way in an Eclipse run that if you're playing Retool Mul-T and have the Seed Of Life in your off hand (the weapon you aren't using when you die) the Seed doesn't bring you back to life

[rose river]

Clip Unrealated chat do i do a chef or seeker run

[short iris]

Seeker

[rose river]

Okie

[short iris]

I've done 4 chef runs today and it went from "honestly this character isn't as bad as everyone says this is fun" to "I wanna kms"

[rose river]

Real

I love chefs kit concept wise but its just so...what??

Especially yes chef

Its such a fucking strange ability

It makes your roll worse. Your m1 op but clunky. And your fire ranged attack that does a ...short ranged melee followup

AND ITS THE ONLY CHEF MOVE YOU CANT CHAIN INTO A ROLL

THAT STILL PISSES ME OFF

EVERY OTHER CHEF ABILLTY YOU CAN ROLL AND IT DOESNT CANCEL

THE FLAMES? USE THEM BEFOREHAND AND THE ROLL SAYS FUCK YOU

YET IT WORKS IF YOU DO THE ROLL FIRST?????

[short iris]

Oh my god.

The old low hp issue is back kinda?

I got poisoned in sulfuric and I permamently had the maximum "low hp" filter until i got hit

It came back without poison???? It's happening again and I'm at full hp???

Thank you clover for being the best item in the game and truly saving this run

[pale mountain]

Sticky buffed poggith

[short iris]

If i get one more item from this expansion

The void is tentabouble for those of who it may concern

[elder trench]

The only meh sots item left is noxious
The rest are pretty nice

[noble furnace]

[short iris]

Oh my god the fucking aurelionite shard was knockback fin chronic expansion squid polyp and fucking guiloteen

Do I just like quit.is this just a sign to quit forever

It's like it is just BEGGING to turn the dlc off

Every single god damn run I've done to day is just filled with the God damn same dogshit sots items

Literally NOTHING other then sale star and the reds other then warbonds is good

Luminous shot doesn't even do total damage

[elder trench]

Chance doll
Prayer bead

[short iris]

Ok true I forgot about those

[elder trench]

Also the new blue is good if on sacrifice

[noble furnace]

I mean, luminous shot it's expected that it's not total damage but stacking it is bad, basically it's only worth the first charge and that's it.

[short iris]

Went into the scrapbook and I got 10 doodoo ass out of 17 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

The balance didn't get to me like this but these past 6 runs have been so godawful atrocious

[elder trench]

The new items are cool in concept

But just executed wrong

[noble furnace]

Yep

[elder trench]

I would love a proper knockback item

[noble furnace]

Just yeeting enemies to walls or to a cliff would be awesome

[short iris]

Chronic expansion could be good!!! But WHY WHY is it based off of level 1 based damage. That's ZERO POINT FIVE DAMAGE PER HIT and then you make it increase each stack making it absurdly broken with fmp soulbound basically one of the best combos in the game now since every single buff is independently better which is like???????????????????????

[elder trench]

Noxious could be busted if it was changed and used with death mark
It feels like an Isaac item tbh-

Because of how specific it is

[short iris]

Noxious thorn is like a afterbirth plus item

Hope it gets a repentence rework,,,

[noble furnace]

And this is what I always say about this DLC, the art direction and music are 10/10 and the ideas are there but the balance and implementation is awful.

[elder trench]

When are we getting Seekers of the Storm +?

[short iris]

Hopefully in a week or two

The update will save us,,, surely ,,,

[elder trench]

We need the Expansion Pack update

[noble furnace]

Now that I think about it, SotS is the other side of the coin of SotV, the good points in one are the bad points on the other one and vice versa, imo.

[short iris]

It's so telling how much time they had considering that the QA save files were so young they didn't get the Xbox glitch

[noble furnace]

Good thing that I didn't play during that period.

[short iris]

Luminous shot could've been really cool if the damage transfer was intentional and ACTUALLY added damage

[elder trench]

YEAH

It would be so strong on characters with a charge attack like FS and Captain

[short iris]

"wow what a cool tech you could do so much creative stuff with it" LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER if you fire your primary without hitting an enemy and then hit an enemy with any other ability it just eats up the buff in exchange for nothing

[elder trench]

Hot take
Luminous shot doesn't need to work with the railgunner snipe
It's good enough
Stop buffing it
It can already one shot

[short iris]

OH MY GOD ANTLER SHIELD PRINTER

THAT COULD'VE BEEN SO MANY THINGS AND ITS ANTLER SHIELD

[noble furnace]

For me it's the stacking and having more charges after the first one, why the frick is 125% on the first charge and +25% on the next charges and +1 to the limits of charge per stack.

[short iris]

Could've been speed or raps or focus crystal or syringes or mochas or bleed or sticky bombs or ANYTHING and it's fucking antler shield 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[noble furnace]

I think it's fun that works with Railgunner like that, imo.

[short iris]

I can't lie I really don't think loot should be able to spawn on Providence's feet as it's such an annoying area to navigate and look around In

Most exciting thing I've had today to do with the dlc is finding scrappers to get rid of the dlc items only to realize the printers are all knockback fin and antler shield

It genuinely feels like sots is a "lose more" button

Like I get that people complained alot about harder enemies but this is like a make your items worse button it is driving me itself

THREE noxious thorns from the boss

[frail merlin]

I don’t think the enemies are that much harder(compared to sotv) just annoying, when you get used to them it gets pretty simple but wurm on e8 is just a max health killer. Also I think people sense of balance is just ruined thanks to double elites.

[frail merlin]

Turning of aim assist will get rid of void fiend built in aim assist so weird playing without it

[thorn valve]

the issue i have with wurms is...

they spawn underground

if they just went underground after spawning it would be fine, because it gives you an opportunity to intercept

[rose river]

Why am i like this

[normal shadow]

E5 false son was a bitch

[restive blade]

[fierce juniper]

@normal shadow just wait till E8

[noble furnace]

3 attempts for eclipse 7 seeker, I can justify one of them because I discovered that the family event of larvas is awful to get.

[kindred heron]

Seeker.... this air really was foul....

[fierce juniper]

Interesting…. Larva never seemed that bad to me. But I’ve never had event so who knows 🤷‍♀️

[noble furnace]

The problem was not the larva itself through attacking, it was how uncommonly they spawn and how hard to get gold from them because you know, they are kamikaze types of enemies and if they die by themselves they don't give gold.

[prime sky]

Ping me when console patch

[signal lily]

I cant get chef mastery its impossible why is my baby boy so awful to play

[noble furnace]

Welp, if you are struggling there are in-game cheat codes in the form of artifacts.

[signal lily]

I know, but thats a crutch imo

[noble furnace]

Okay, it's up to you,I got the mastery skin of chef with sacrifice and swarm on because I wanted to have fun and I was burned out from eclipse.

[manic forum]

VOID

[noble furnace]

Buddy, console doesn't have servers codes.

[manic forum]

🤷‍♀️

ohhhh

[manic forum]

you're not gonna believe this

i was on the wrong channel

[noble furnace]

Np

[short iris]

I keep hearing about this larva event is it literally just every single enemy larva??? Like 1 enemy type??

[harsh olive]

i think it is

also sots just doesnt look appetizing

when sotv released i was like "OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD" but when sots released i was just like "cool"

you can tell gearbox is afraid of advancing the story (not like they can, i think the game was just supposed to end after ror2) because false son isnt really important at all

i feel like they shouldve expanded on an already-existing concept rather than going with the whole false son thing but i think they barely got any time so

🤷

[short iris]

I think the story is amazing but a majority of the items are just so extremely underwhelming and not exciting

I remember playing sotv and nearly every single new item had this excitement

Picking up noxious thorns and unstable transmitter and reading it's description only made me want to say yikes

Even stuff that isn't good like vands, it was really exciting to pick up and explore even if it sucks

[frail merlin]

The new halconite enemy is apparently a part of the golem family, so it will spawn in a family event.

[short iris]

This is so incredibly grim, having two dlcs at once isn't done properly so it's not truly fully compitable in some aspects

Awesomee

[frail merlin]

On what map was it replaced? because I still have my gups spawning

[short iris]

The thing talked about there was sundered Grove

Which I can definitely see in hindsight, don't remember any gups on sundered in ages

[short iris]

Ugghh I wanna play railgunner but her bugged scope is so uncomfortable

[frail merlin]

I still get gups from sundered grove, specially gilded one.

[short iris]

Huh

Do you get elder lems?

Also just noticed shattered abodes can have adaptive chests early which is cool

[frail merlin]

Yep

[frail merlin]

Yellow printer also

[short iris]

Wanted to play acrid and then I remembered fucking bugged leap

Can't have shift

[frail merlin]

The scope is bugged

[noble furnace]

Yes, only larvas

[rose river]

Just had another fun co op run

Very fun.
and not all some dude mad at me for accidently picking up more boss items then i should've be accident.
he had double the loot of me. And it was fucking noxious thorn

[short iris]

The outside of the center is completely over saturated and some parts of it have inverted colours

It's so overwhelming on my eyes

Anyways WARBOND STAGE ONE YEAAAHHH

[short iris]

Two shrines of chance plays from that huh

[noble furnace]

Fun fact, warbond is not 75 gold, it's 50 gold.

[mighty citrus]

Did acrid always take fall damage when using leap

Or am I just insane

[lapis moth]

no
they fucked it

[noble furnace]

It's a bug that started with the recent update/patch.

[mighty citrus]

Knew it

GOD DAMN IT

[lapis moth]

oh yeah wait
they screwed up the leap and then unscrewed it and then screwed it up again, I think?

[mighty citrus]

Jesus christ...

[short iris]

Fun fact leap on console never worked properly

You're welcome

[noble furnace]

Kind of, on console was never able to hit flying enemies probably since the anniversary update and now it can hit flying enemies but you take fall damage but like qwp wrote, acrid leap on console always has an issue.

[lapis moth]

oh amazing

[short iris]

It's kind of peotic in a way

[noble furnace]

I just started noticing that I am starting to forget which bugs started on which update and how long it lived.

[short iris]

Early onset dementia 💔 but yeah that's fair it's been happening for like 4 years or so

[noble furnace]

Example, I do remember that tougher times were affected by luck in the 1.0 update but I don't remember if it was fixed on the anniversary update or SotV update, or probably in the mini patch after the anniversary update.

[novel totem]

Chat, whats wrong with the Artifact place

keys are spawning in every 15 years

[uneven barn]

if you rushed there it's a pain in the ass, esp on drizzle

i like speedran my way there with loader and it took me like 30 mins to get allthe keys i needed

[novel totem]

yeah

thats exactly what im doing

grinding out abilities for eclipse 🙏

[uneven barn]

naw fr

[noble furnace]

Clover and purity affects the chance for the key to spawn but like I wrote it's a Chance to drop so you may be unlucky or sometimes the key drops to the void of the stage.

[short iris]

Clover and purity effect keys wtf?

I thought it was the same as sacrifice

[noble furnace]

Yep, it does affect the drop chance for the keys so if you have purities that means that you are soft locking yourself in the artifacts stage.

Wait wait wait, I just checked the wiki and it says that it doesn't get affected by luck (clover and purity) and I just saw that I got it wrong because I was stuck with when it was discovered that the drop key gets affected by luck but I didn't know that they patch it, my bad.

[short iris]

Uhhhhpprrpp ugghhrrpp https://riskofrain2.wiki.gg/wiki/Commando#Tips hhjdudiijjjb leaving this heeree just so,,,, yk,,,,,

First link i had on hand but ahahaha cool wiki site right

[uneven barn]

this is kind of unrelated but when im on bandit and i go invis, i feel like clay templars and the gilded halcyonite boys like turn towards me still and i cant get behind them. am i stupid or are they stupid

[wraith totem]

There are so many bugs in multiplayer it's unplayble

[noble furnace]

Basically whenever you go invisible enemies try to predict where you are depending on the last location that they saw you but the ai of the enemies is also intelligent enough to understand that you are semi transparent and they try to find the semi transparent like shadow that it's you after 2 seconds that you go invisible.

[uneven barn]

oh!!

well thank you for the explanation :)

[noble furnace]

Np.

[restive blade]

[frail merlin]

Had to take a moment to rethink my decisions

[noble furnace]

please tell me that you got blocked with the 2 stacks of tougher times.

[restive blade]

OOOPPPSPAPS

[rose river]

Peak video

[vivid sky]

Is elite spam still an issue

[noble furnace]

Yes.

[vivid sky]

Ok i was questioning if it was just me or if the stage 4 glacial elder lemurian that spawned shouldn’t have

[noble furnace]

It's going to be fixed in the upcoming patch with balance changes but we don't know when it's going to arrive.

[noble furnace]

And eclipse 8 Seeker done, 4 attempts and I went full soul spiral (balls) all the way.

False son time with the alt special.

[shy solar]

have you done eclipse on all survivors? trying to see whether the grind is worth it or not

[noble furnace]

With the old ones, yes, the grind is worth it if you are into the challenge, if you are not into doing the challenge it's not worth it, personally I do like challenges on games I like Even if they don't give that much of a reward, just learning in the highest difficulty that the game has I beat it really gives me satisfaction of "I did it" and puts a big smile on my face.

[shy solar]

what do you mean by the old ones

[noble furnace]

Commando, huntress, bandit,multy,engi, mercenary, Rex,loader, artificer,acrid, captain, railgunner and void fiend, I have all of them on eclipse 8 since so long ago I only need the new survivors, Seeker, false and Chef and I just completed seeker.

[short iris]

My experience is that even though i know I don't get any reward out of it, the reward is getting better and consistent and makes me feel more complete in a way

[noble furnace]

The short version of what I wrote.☝️

[shy solar]

thanks for the info, may convince me to try it myself

[fierce juniper]

@short iris TRUTH. I feel the same way. I finished E8 new survivors last week and feel better than ever 😎
I also bought ror2 on switch since it was only 6 bucks am now reheating the entire game. Bring the PAIN!

[languid needle]

Is couch co op fixed and if so how would i do it?

[noble furnace]

It's fixed and the way to do it is by selecting multiplayer split screen on the main menu, once you select it and you are in the survivor selection screen connect the other controller and press any button on the second controller.
Keep in mind that the split screen is only available on the Xbox series and PS5 version of the game.

[rose river]

SINCE WHEN THE FUCK WAS DEADBOLT ON NINTEDO SWITCH???

[noble furnace]

I don't know.

[rose river]

oh wait

[languid needle]

Ah I was wondering why it wasn't on ps4 for me

[rose river]

Its on literally everything expect for a xbox lmao

[frail merlin]

It’s like so much more harder with double elites, it gotta takes some level of masochist to challange eclipse with the current state of the game.

[noble furnace]

And I am doing it because I am the console Mexican masochist.

[frail merlin]

I barely have the motivation to meet my daily quota of one run per day

[short iris]

Was cleaning up my photo library and saw this when this chat was such a humble little community 🥺

I'll never got over how much of a life saver Preston was. Genuinely the only info we got in the span of 3 years

And still now that sots is out it's so awesome seeing them be more intouch with the commiunity

[noble furnace]

Yep

[short iris]

Looking back on it makes me wanna do so much stuff, love this game so much and I wanna give back what it gave to me but it's so hard to actually do stuff with so many technical roadblocks

I feel like there's so much aspects and details of it that just arnt detailed or documented anywhere on video

[frail merlin]

Someone was racist? Wow

[frail merlin]

Welcome to the internet

[kindred heron]

Have a look around

[sacred halo]

if u get a lot of clovers dont get void atg

and that run was bad

[echo relic]

already oneshoted with void atg, and it was way faster than normals one

[noble furnace]

But it's just a tip for overall damage when you don't use command, without clover plasma shrimp is better DPS but once you add a clover atgs become better DPS.

[noble furnace]

How heavy is False son?
Because I had to do the pillars on the moon and the ones that appear near the soup that pushes you if you are not in the air I noticed that they don't push that much False son, I could just keep walking towards the center of the pillar and basically stay all the time inside of the area even if it was eclipse 2.

[untold quartz]

can someone help me on ps4 to get false son

[noble furnace]

Better ask on #lfg-playstation-ror2

[untold quartz]

thanks 4 the directions

[steady igloo]

Algum br pra ir duo ou trio?

[winged prism]

Anyone have sensitivity suggestions for console? My aim feels clunky

[noble furnace]

I was not thinking about what to get in this run, I just yolo it and I somehow ended up winning, remember that I use the alt special on my False son.

[noble furnace]

I play on 6 sensitivity and turn off Sprint sensitivity reduction.

[meager niche]

Why this game still buggy

[signal lily]

Im gonna lose my fucking mind

Ive killed the false son TWICE with the halcyon seed in my inventory and i STILL didnt unlock the false son, ive wasted like 6 hours trying to do this i dont understand what im doing wrong

Istg the false son better be the most gamebreaking most enjoyable character in the entire series if its this frustrating to get him

[meager niche]

Try this. Have the Aurelionite summoned. Then kill the False Son

[signal lily]

They were summoned both times when i killed him

I even put the seed in the rebirth shrine

[signal lily]

Ive done it a third time now, NOTHING.

Ive spent so much time, im genuinely astounded, i dont know what im doing wrong

-Go in to prime meridian (with halcyon seed)
-Kill False son
-Fuck you, you dont get false son
-???

[frail merlin]

May have to kill aurelionite first when she spawns in

[short iris]

@wispy crypt Someone find a way to weaponize your egg exploit for pillar skip/movement

Basically If you have bhaos with consumed seed of life you can teleport anywhere you point at (watch the video though there's more and it's cool)

[wispy crypt]

Egg is the gift that keeps on giving

But it is strange

Egg delaying the teleport back in bounds when going oob with it but also CAUSING a teleport with the seed jank

I do wonder if this interaction can be combined with my multiplayer oob interaction to create a way to instantly teleport to an out of bounds spot

Its unlikely since I doubt there are any valid nodes on the solid ground thats out of bounds but its worth trying out

And here I thought I could enjoy the new zelda for a few days without ror2 testing :(

[rose river]

THE FUCK LMAO

[short iris]

Ok well what happens is that for some reason using consumed seed of life teleports the player for 1 frame and then teleports back but since egg ignores teleports it just disregards it

[wispy crypt]

It doesnt quite ignore them though

It stores them

I once messed up the egg bug in the bazaar and wasnt able to re egg within the bazaar part

However when I first tested it I re egged in the bazaar part and was able to stay in there

[short iris]

Weird, I thought what happens is that it disregards teleports and out of bounds warps just extend endlessly and since it can ignore teleports ot lets you ignore the teleport back to the position before seed of life

[wispy crypt]

At least thats my hypothesis

Like the clip of ronny clearly shows that the game attempted to warp me back that one time but wasnt able to

So I believe that teleports get stored and then used once youre out of egg

But also in non host multiplayer when you re egg, expending that stored warp but failing to actually warp

[frail merlin]

Maybe the game attempt to teleport you but fails

[hot hill]

The illusion of free choice

[elder trench]

That's just a chest that shows you the exact item

[frail merlin]

The double elites are gonna make me bald

[pale mountain]

The eclipse 9 modifier we've all been waiting for

[noble furnace]

We love gearbox coding.

[noble furnace]

In the last phase, did you see false son HP bar at the top of the screen when aurelyonite was summoned?

[frail merlin]

How the hell did the fire breathing get me, I thought the hitbox was below it head

[outer vault]

Risk of getting one-shoted 2

[short iris]

OoooOOOOoooOoOoo I can't wait for this patch

[frail merlin]

The quick patch was to good to be true. Can’t wait to wait another half year to get a below acreage patch👍

[noble furnace]

Yeah, it happens against overloadings since the beginning of the game, basically when you do eviscerate you become immortal but you still have a hit box so enemies still try to attack you and when an overloading enemy hits you during eviscerate the Initial hit doesn't damage you but the orbs are still on top of you and because of the delay that the orb has once you are out of eviscerate invincibility they explode on you.

[frail merlin]

the problem I had was that I still got hit (after the iframe) as shown by the fire debuff even tho I wasn’t close at all. And I don’t think orb from a fire breath that’s supposed inflict debuff should have killed me(give me back my run )

[noble furnace]

Your feet touched his fire breath.

Once you were out of eviscerate

[frail merlin]

I must be blind or something but from the screenshot I took my body nor feet are nowhere near the elder lemerian

[noble furnace]

The hit box of the fire breath is that big, basically melee in a nutshell, you have to learn the hitbox of attacks especially if you play melee against overloadings.

[frail merlin]

Where’s my visually accurate hitbox when I need them

[noble furnace]

Nope, everything is a giant square or spheres that goes beyond the actual animation, the best example, Gups attacks.

Those adorable orange giant balls hit box attack is like 50% more than it looks like from their spikes model.

[frail merlin]

I just expected the fire breath to be a rectangle to go downward and not be near anywhere the head, I only pretty much have my guard up against the fire ball shotgun so dying to the fire breath which I hadn’t died since a long time.

[noble furnace]

It feels like the frickin airblast hit box of pyro TF2.

[noble furnace]

Somehow you have to learn, it hurts but the next time now you know.

[short iris]

Eclipse chef mending elder lemurian and overloading imp overlord on stage 4 23 minutes in double elite spawn rates really kicking in huh

I love playing this awesome game

[noble furnace]

And I just don't even bother about the double elite spawn.

[frail merlin]

The problem with the double elites is the quantity of smaller and medium sized monster like wisp, brass contraption and stuff like that increasing and resulting in being overwhelmed in because you can’t kill them fast enough and most projectiles becomes lethal.

[elder tapir]

Does anyone else play RoR2 on xbox and find the aim/sensitivity settings really weird? I’m not sure what exactly is wrong with it but it feels like no matter which settings I try and tweak it still ends up feeling very clunky/inconsistent, making it very hard to fine tune aim while also being able to turn around quickly and making me keep dropping the game even though I really want to play it in concept. Do any other console players have any solutions/tips regarding these settings in question or do I just hafta suck it up

Sry for length I put this in Reddit but it gained zero traction

[wispy crypt]

There are quite a few other settings that affect sensitivity

[noble furnace]

Personally I play on 6 sensitivity, aim assist off, sprint sensitivity reduction off and projectile auto aim 7.

[wispy crypt]

Like reduced sensitivity while sprinting or the aim assist options

Me personally I play without aim assist and reduced sprint sensitivity at max sensitivity and it feels very consistent despite being extremely fast

[elder tapir]

Ooh I see, thanks! Gonna try this out when I’m home lul

Been playing risk 1 for a tiny bit too and it’s surprisingly fun, a bit weird with the whole theme of needing to stop and face enemies to do damage though lol. Also the rly repetitive sounds pshhh but everything else is a banger

I beat providence on my second run since installing on normal difficulty >:3 true gaymer

[fierce juniper]

Huh. My friend said she’s soft locked in the bulwarks ambry. The key hasn’t spawned? Is it broken rn?

[elder tapir]

Coulda sworn that happened to me once or smth

[frail merlin]

I personally think it’s the horizontal and vertical aim that matters.
Also My setting are
Sensitivity 8
Horizontal 0.70
Vertical 0.31
And no aim assist or reduce sensitivity when sprint, I switch it up sometimes depending on who I play.

[surreal coral]

Guys this has been happening to me for a long time, but does anyone else sometimes get hit by ignite that lasts for 30 minutes??

[short iris]

I've heard of two Softlock, one due to only a cut enemy spawning meaning all keys drop into the void, the exit portal being completely stuck in geometry and not letting you go
Aswell one of the new variants can't spawn iirc

So I wouldn't be suprised if it was the case 💔

[noble furnace]

What hit you?

[surreal coral]

Regular blazing elites

[surreal coral]

It happened to my friend twice in a row on stage one and he just died

[noble furnace]

Which enemy was the blazing.

[surreal coral]

One stack of ignite that did 80% of his health before going away, healed a bit and then he got hit again and it just ate his whole bar that time

A Lemurian at first and then a Wisp

[noble furnace]

If it happens again take a clip and send it okay.

[surreal coral]

Gotcha

[noble furnace]

Because depending on the enemy the burn can last a lot, for example, the higher the damage the more it lasts and the higher the proc coefficient of the attack the more damage it deals each tick of burn.

[surreal coral]

It also happens incredibly frequently with Grandpa Sun, but I heard that may have been intentional? But surely not right? Having 7 stacks of ignite that go on for 30 seconds makes me sad

[surreal coral]

Interesting

And weird

But interesting

[noble furnace]

If I remember correctly, the sun attack of the grandparent counts as one big hit every time that applies burn that is why it lasts so long and the debuff that it gives you, the sun looking one, is like ignition tank, increases the damage of each tick of burn.

[surreal coral]

That does make me sad, but eh, I can just be better

As long as it's intentional

[noble furnace]

It's intentional so it's literally a DPS check once the grandparent starts to do the sun, if you are not going to make it take cover out of the center of the sun attack.

[short iris]

I'm one of the rare people that actually like blind pests but I for the life of me cannot deal with them as chef it's so ass

[hot hill]

I think that is because chef is kind of ass

[short iris]

The cleaver rarely hits the 2nd on the and even if it does it isn't anywhere near enough to hit them and oh yeah they're gilded because fucking obviously

This shit is so ass man

I took a screenshot and it had 2 mending blind pests 4 gilded and 3 normal ones like what the fuck.

[noble furnace]

Taking advantage of the items you have is the saying that I have.

[short iris]

Would you belive me if I said I had 14 white scrap and half of it was dlc items

Not a single gas but bolstering lantern antler shield and chronic expansion are all there obv

Loving it

[noble furnace]

At least they do something in comparison of scrap.

[rose mason]

It wont let me sync my data on xbox fuck sake

[short iris]

Is this a placebo effect or are sots items way more common??? I swear every single run has 5 sots items every single time. This is my ENTIRE stage 1.

[delicate cave]

you probably also got sotv items that often too

they were just made so well you dont even notice

they fit in perfectly

[hot hill]

Overall, probably a placebo effect

But damn is that a lot of sots items

[frail merlin]

Sots item? you mean scrap

[elder tapir]

[steel lion]

thats not placebo you goofs

i think it’s just that we’ve been used to sotv items for awhile now so we’re hyper aware of runs with more sots items than normal as opposed to runs with fewer to none

close to but not exactly confirmation bias pls someone tell me what this phenomenon is called if u kno

[elder tapir]

The risk of rain phenomenon

[frail merlin]

Could just be a coincidence but I do at least feel like the sots reds are more common than the other, I get runic lens all the time.

Ima try disabling sots and see how much of a boost my winrate gets

[untold valley]

Music work yet?

[frail merlin]

I wish it did

[rose mason]

Wym

[untold valley]

On switch the audio cuts out for the music entirely

[untold valley]

It’s so upsetting because it’s only switch and the music is one of the best parts of the game

[noble furnace]

Welp, laser burst (alt special of False son) can't crit even if you have full crit but somehow you can make it crit with active.

Am I dripping because I swear I saw a crit with laser burst.

[untold valley]

Maybe it has a really low proc coefficient? (Idk if crit is affected by that)

That is strange though

[noble furnace]

Crit is not affected by proc coefficient, it's just gearbox coding all over the place, my theory is that they copy and paste Railgunner default secondary scope code and they forget to remove the line of "if you hit a weak spot make it crit" which is funny because false son can't see weak spots which translates to no crit, so maybe what I saw was something hitting at the same time as laser burst.

[untold valley]

That’s so weird

[meager niche]

HE IS LAUGHING

[noble furnace]

Eclipse 6 false son done, 2 more and it's chef time to recover my golden badges.

[spare wagon]

Hey guys is there a way that Nintendo switch can in any way join someone playing on pc

Like a lobby or smthn

[final ice]

I heard somewhere that some of the whites maybe have a higher item weight? I feel like I see knock back fin and antler shield a LOT

[fresh ferry]

They stand out to us more because they’re not good but it’d be a little bit of a stretch to go that far I think

[cosmic granite]

hoy, buddy is asking how the game runs on Switch for any of you who play. how does it run?

[hot hill]

Nope

[hot hill]

It... runs

It does that much

[cosmic granite]

Buddy is worried about the game being too buggy like something about a difficulty modifier?

[hot hill]

Nah, the gameplay itself is solid

Just don't expect high fps

[cosmic granite]

Ok cool

Not a huge buggy mess?

[hot hill]

Not really but I'd ask @wispy crypt for specifics. I haven't run into anything egregious

[wispy crypt]

There is still the bug of elite costs being halved meaning the game is currently a good bit harder than intended

Probably what your friend was talking about

[hot hill]

Hopefully that gets fixed soon. That many elites doesn't make the game feel difficult, just makes it feel like a slog

[frail merlin]

On the later stages there more elites than normal enemies and on multiplayer it’s even worse

[rose mason]

Also enemies are going through walls more often.
Also i had a bug ehere when i go through a teleporter my character is on the map but my camera is 50m below ground, i mean it fixes itself after pausing but its weird

[short iris]

Just as much of a buggy mess as pc with a few console specifics like acrid leap taking fall damage and milky chrisalis flat out not working aswell as all the pc bugs. In general for casual players or people that are learning the game it's not noticeable and often say there arnt any glitches but if they used to be a longtime player they'll definitely notice some things off

[placid valley]

Someone showed on Reddit that Acrid was still taking damage after using caustic leap and apparently this is only on consoles

[short iris]

Yup, happened after the latest console update

Happens on both leap types too

[placid valley]

Hope they can fix that eventually :/ I'm just starting to learn how to play as Acrid and it's quite fun

[elder tapir]

A few years back I played ror2 on my switch for a good handful of weeks, the frames weren’t anything crazy but at the same time not an inconvenience, it really ran fine. It’s like an hour and up into a run when you’ll see the frame drops and whatnot. I remember reaching a point where it was literally a slideshow LOL

[elder trench]

That's every run past stage 8 or 9 on every system

[junior perch]

I was playing Monsoon with a friend last night and I died every single stage from stage 2 onwards as Engi until we got to Commencement and I legit felt like Captain in this image

[elder trench]

Me every time I play

[fresh ferry]

mood

[kindred heron]

Real

[untold valley]

Why doesn’t engi’s mobile turrets have the ability to sprint when they are out of combat

They’d be a lot better if just that was changed

[rose river]

They sprint whenever youre far away afiak

[untold valley]

I thought they don’t benefit from sprint items though, energy drink, rose buckler, little disciple, and Weeping fungus

[rose river]

They dont

They technically sprint if youre far away but most of the time they are never that far to trigger it and if they are no enemies are near them for it to matter

...i think someone fact check this

[dusky rivet]

Ive seen more beetle queens walking than mobile turret sprinting.

[untold valley]

I love them they’re so so silly but at the same time I miss turrets that can hit something that’s 10 feet away

[twin bloom]

Accidentally picked up an egocentrism I thought was a focused convergence 😭

Relatedly, I now have 30 pearls and 17 irradiant pearls

[tardy wedge]

is there a way for me to play with my friend that plays from xbox while im playing on pc?

even if it is an obscure mod or something

[noble furnace]

Nope

[minor dawn]

the director everytime I play a melee character

[kindred heron]

So real

[rose river]

This but its fucking wisp event when im playing captain

Stop doing this game.

[hot hill]

Sounds like the opposite of a problem

[rose river]

I fucking despise wisps

This is entirely a me problem
I dont even find them hard i just really do not fucking like fighting them during family events

[minor dawn]

Got to the hatchery with loader earlier and it was like 90% greater & lesser wisps and jellyfish

[rose river]

Mmm iellyfish soup

[minor dawn]

Director saw I had an amazing build and said Nah

[rose river]

Director is mean to me literally only in co op lol

[minor dawn]

If only captains nanobots dropped as a red item

[stark beacon]

i can speak here now cuz i got ror2 on switch

[noble furnace]

Yes, even if you didn't have a console you can chat here but like the channel says, this is ror2 console discussion, so the main topic is ror2 console related stuff but sometimes you can yap about other things.

While being respectful.

[raw wing]

not only range, but they also have less dps and 0.6 coefficient instead of 1.0 coefficient, compared to stationary ones, + no turret inside wall cheese, and list goes on

but like sure they have built in slow hooray 1/4 of a death mark thx

[untold valley]

Thus is the price to pay for silly lil guys😔

Do they hit faster than turrets do though? Like will they average more hits or procs in total? Is there a decent advantage please they can’t be just worse they’re so silly😭

[noble furnace]

They do have more attack speed than the stationary ones.

[untold valley]

Wait has anyone tried spare drone parts with engi turrets?

Does that improve them at all?

[noble furnace]

Soo.... I am not sure but shields Regen way faster if you charge False son bonk I believe...

[untold valley]

Wtf you’re right what was that

[noble furnace]

Think of it like this,
Mobility turrets you don have to replace them every time that you move allowing you to play more mobile.
Immobile turrets are more like a tower defense gameplay where you put down the turrets and that area is your area.
Whichever fits more your playstyle chooses because in my personal opinion both turrets do their work great.

[untold valley]

Fair enough, I think the mobile ones might be better for single player

In terms of how you have to play around them

[noble furnace]

Basically

[untold valley]

With multiplayer having giant healing zones you can deploy is nice for support and getting enemies off teammates backs who are a distance away from you or the turret

Interesting

[noble furnace]

Yep

[noble furnace]

Eclipse 8 False son done, it's chef time.
This was the funniest and most painful run I ever had, don't fucking grab transcendence as False son especially if you grab Stone Pauldron

[white quarry]

Pretty sure that is due to warped echo

[noble furnace]

Wdym?
I am talking about this.

[white quarry]

Oops thought you were talking about that bug for some reason

[noble furnace]

The warped echo immortality bug is fixed

[white quarry]

Warped echo could instantly start regenerating your shield, not sure if that was fixed or not, it probably was though

[noble furnace]

Ohhhh that explains this. #ror2-console-discussion message

[white quarry]

So I was right, warped echo is pretty fucked

[noble furnace]

At least the immortality bug was fixed.

[noble furnace]

Wait, my bad, I didn't check which of my messages you pinged me at the start, I thought that it was the eclipse 8 win screenshot, I am really sorry for the confusion.

[white quarry]

I was wondering why you brought up growth

[noble furnace]

Because of that, I got confused.

[white quarry]

Thought there was just something else in the clip I missed lol

[noble furnace]

Like I wrote, my bad.😅

[twin bloom]

Looks like they finally bumped up the total damage cap

Total damage is less than most damage dealt now though for whatever reason

[short iris]

This is a bug with enough warped echos where it instantly recharges shield and activates cautious slug

Oh shit I didn't see the response my bad 💀

Ignore me🕵️

[obtuse sphinx]

Being smart this time and climbing by level, not character so I can enjoy the DLC characters evenly… except dumb bc I’m trying to fight false son every run

Absolutely crazy firework run that basically killed false som with the purchase of 3 “Eclipse 0” beverages… 🥲

Oh wait different run with W FMP build, oops

[stone halo]

That is hardly an fmp build but I guess it works

also why is this in console discussion I see pc keybinds

[hot hill]

I mean, they can still discuss the game here. They should just expect things from a console perspective

[dusky rivet]

I love it when almost all wisp are elites so i cant ignore them like normal and its not like they stopped spawning elites when i killed them

[hot hill]

What

[torn fossil]

are the new bulwarks ambry variants random chance

[proper grail]

imm need a bit of a gamin help (not as when you guys have to play with me as in I don't know which skin to get next)

i...idk whose new skin i should get next

so you guys choose

[noble furnace]

Which ones do you have?

[proper grail]

hold on let me load the game again

I do have rex, loader, void boyo, the acid puppy

and thats all i can remember

oh and huntress

I already have everyone's monsoon skinned and abilities

[short iris]

Railgunner (:

[proper grail]

I also have mercenary

[proper grail]

too easy i could do her last

plus 1m damage wont be hard to do again

[proper grail]

I'm also saving very easy characters for last because they're that easy and they ain't going to be that hard also I would be funny to Just One tap bosses with them so that's why

I'm going for characters who are hard but also slightly fun (rex almost put me to sleep I'm never playing him again)

I'll probably figure it out by then idk

[noble furnace]

Artificer

[proper grail]

okay

[cosmic granite]

Here again. My friend on Nintendo Switch is having an issue where the music cuts out after a few minutes on a stage. His conclusion is that the game will stutter/lag for a moment then it stops. Are there any solutions? He’s real upset that he can’t hear the music

[noble furnace]

Nope, just play without music until hopefully in the next patch they fix it.

And eclipse 1 Chef done. 7 more to go.

[gusty heron]

Who the hell is chef💀🙏

[steel lion]

the guy who makes the food

[noble furnace]

A robot.

[proper grail]

@noble furnace okay done got the skin

imma do another later

[noble furnace]

Let's go, now go for huntress.

[proper grail]

oh just for clarification I'm doing all of this on monsoon

[proper grail]

already got hers

[noble furnace]

Sorry I just checked the previous message from you, maybe commando or loader next?

[proper grail]

oh yeah and guess what I finally have I finally have a abyssal depths

after years

and years

[proper grail]

loader have. commando sure

I'll keep u updated when i play again and get the game

[analog citrus]

I don’t really see any talking about this so am I the only one getting this bug

[proper grail]

wha..
what happened

[prime token]

[hybrid geyser]

I get it a LOT

Killed a pretty good run the other day

Usually happens when I resume from quickplay and start a new game

[short iris]

@analog citrus @hybrid geyser you can fix the camera by going into the logbook and back out of it (found out by Calvin iirc)

[hybrid geyser]

Oh thanks

[noble furnace]

Yep

[analog citrus]

Thanks I luckily got it during a god run

[untold valley]

What’s the chance of a multi shop having 3 of the exact same white item

I don’t think I’ve ever seen it before and it happened to me last night

[noble furnace]

Fun fact, that is not supposed to happen because hopoo fixed it but gearbox added it back.

[frail merlin]

Gearbox is even going out on their way to unpatch certain bugs, truly shows gearbox loves with bugs.

[torn fossil]

gearbox is like providence but with bugs instead of soul

[frail merlin]

Mithrix(hoopoo) was so tired of playing with providence, so he decided to work with valve on the moon.

[orchid oracle]

I feel like I'm dying way more often than usual on monsoon

Gilded things hit insanely hard

[twin bloom]

I still think their scaling is broken in multiplayer if you were with friends

My four stack doesn’t usually have an excessive amount of trouble with any elites or anything, but if a guilded spawns it’s just ggs

[untold valley]

That’s funny

[hot hill]

The illusion of choice

Tbf, that is the only time I've had that happen

[noble furnace]

Okay, I am going to break one rule I have while playing eclipse, normally I don't like to force things in a run, for example, getting a blue portal through the newt altar and rerolling the lunar items in the newt shop, normally I do like to get lunar items but from lunar eggs or by a free random blue portal and the first 5 lunar items that are in the shop those are my only options for lunar items, no rerolling,but holy Jesus Chef is going to make me buy blue portals almost all the stages to get a better opportunity to get a good run.

[noble furnace]

Okay, if you have transcendence it's a good idea to stack warped echos.

[noble furnace]

What a gup family event+ the new lunar item does to a chef.
Look at my level and the ambient level.

[sonic saffron]

is ps5 version ok yet?

[noble furnace]

It's playable

[sonic saffron]

is it still all commando?

[noble furnace]

I believe that it was fixed because since the most recent patch there have not been reports of that so far.

[sonic saffron]

is there a save data transfer, and is data corruption still common?

[noble furnace]

That is also fixed but if you got your save file corrupted before the patch your save file can't be saved.

[sonic saffron]

ok, so PS5 version is generally completely fine then, correct?

[noble furnace]

Yes

There are some problems still but they are Minor and no game breaking.

[sonic saffron]

ok, ty!

[noble furnace]

Np

[hot hill]

Yeah, I've been playing the ps5 version as well, no noticeable issues

[steel lion]

i love that risk of rain 2 despite its optimization and being easy to run can still make my ps5 chug later in runs the same way only helldivers 2 can

[worn goblet]

False son is so unfair

[rapid rampart]

Is there a way to force the game to save so I don't lose shit again

[dusky rivet]

Changing loadout is a method ivee heard about a couple of times

[rapid rampart]

I've lost the false son twice due to the game not saving, just got him a third time if I lose him again I'm going insano style

[hollow iron]

Has anyone had a problem where when you get into a run in multiplayer with someone it will just disconnect you out of nowhere

[steel lion]

my friend had this happen but it was also launch day so have luck

[noble furnace]

There are some factors about that problem.
First the internet connection between you and the other players which it can be the most common cause.
Second, Xbox online services are not working properly.
Third, the game itself but this one is that last option in my opinion because I have played multiple multiplayer matches since the release of the DLC and I have not gotten into any problem while I am the host of the match but when I am the client rarely I get the message of "disconnected" but it's either the host exiting the run or their internet connection is not the best specially if it not Ethernet cable connection.

[frail merlin]

Always gotta have the one with the strongest internet to host or the one with the most stable one

[torn fossil]

be the host as the one with the oldgen console

butcher your fps with firework spam and have your friends witness them moving at a snails pace

[frail merlin]

I just disconnect mid run every time I host to scared to host but also yearns for those host privileges.

[pale mountain]

Because the

[restive blade]

Mhm

Бєҫдҵѕє ꚍӊє

I agree

[tawny olive]

guys hear me out, what if on console we had a public community mod section where we can download community posted mods

[frail merlin]

Gonna take several miracle for that to happen

[tawny olive]

several decades*

[elder tapir]

That would be awesome 😭

Also I’ve heard that survivors of void is a good dlc to get? I had a lot of completion on my Switch but now I’m playing on xbox and I gotta start over again, I feel like I need smth to keep me goin and void might do that

[pearl kite]

Yea SoTV is fun

[tawny olive]

sotv is super fun, it’s a great dlc to get

[hot hill]

SotV definitely worth

I'm saving up to acquire on ps after deciding to swap over when the next gen update happened

Had ror2 on ps4 for forever but never did much with it

[elder tapir]

Bet >:3

[elder tapir]

The next gen thing was for xbox too right? I swear nothing feels very different abt risk on my xbox before and after, like am I dumb or

[elder tapir]

Yuhhh, is the railgunner like risk 1 sniper in any way lol

[hot hill]

Ye, I never really played the ps4 version but the ps5 version has been running rocksteady at 60 fps regardless of what's happening

[elder tapir]

Ok but liiike it’s for xbox too right 👀

Idk how to update unless it just did it by itself lul

[hot hill]

Ye, gotta make sure you've got the right version

[elder tapir]

Wha how

[hot hill]

The next gen one will have a splitscreen mp option in the menu

Old gen won't

[elder tapir]

Ooh yeah then I have it lol

I just gotta keep messing with the sensitivity options until it doesn’t feel weird

[visual crane]

I play on Xbox and the sensitivity is defintely the setting I had to mess around the most with especially the aim assist

[elder tapir]

What’s your like I can’t figure it out lmao

[visual crane]

I'm not at home rn but I think my basic sensitivity is around 7/8 and my aim assist sensitivity is pretty weak. It's so annoying dealing with ur sensitivity slowing down by 3x speed when you just look at enemy

[noble furnace]

I play on Xbox and I have 6 on aim sensitivity, turned off the sprinting sensitivity reduction, no aim assist and 7 on projectile assist.

[elder tapir]

Bettt imma try it

[elder tapir]

And both “scales” set to 1.00? Also what about input aim assist sens/trajectory assist, I’m guessing trajectory is what you’re callin projectile assist?

[noble furnace]

Yes, trajectory is projectile assist is how I call it.

[elder tapir]

Alr bet bet

Hmm it feels alright, I really reeeeally wish there was a setting to turn that like aim acceleration off though it feels terrible :(

Also I’m surprised the frames don’t seem to be running so good? I’m on a series X shouldn’t it be 60 or somethin lmao

Ooh wait I turned the trajectory assist up that feels better lol

[white quarry]

I’m on a series X, and it very stably runs at 60

[elder tapir]

Dang what

I could like try recording it but idk if that’s dumb lmao

It just definitely does not feel like smooth frames to me, especially when moving the camera

[gleaming owl]

Man, Recycler is wack. My salestar got me a red from a key lockbox, but it was bottled Chaos. Rerolled and its war bonds...

And now i've found a prayer beads printer...

[pale mountain]

Gg

[noble furnace]

All in, no questions asked.

[gleaming owl]

Whats the jungly map in seekers that you get to with green portal? Yeah i almost was mad... the printer sets the beads so close to the edge they visually float over the abyss.

But i got 5 of em! Now to find a scrapper after a while.

Nevermind... series of unfortunate skill issues i died.

[noble furnace]

[karmic glade]

YO I have discovered a funny corner of the Internet

Check out the LFG page for ror2 on Xbox 😂

[noble furnace]

Lol

I just checked

[noble furnace]

What chef does to a man.
https://youtube.com/shorts/6a5k65wLalY?si=5odhwDMuIE3kpuWJ

[karmic glade]

U see that 😂 I never would've thought mfs would be beefing in the LFG posts

[noble furnace]

Yeah

[north cape]

Anybody having trouble connecting to the PSN?

[torpid storm]

Does anyone know if the console version supports keybored and mouse xbox series x

[safe zealot]

It does but for some reason the vertical aim is locked on inverted and there is no way to fix it rn, atleast as far as i know

The kbm support is new btw like, i think it was added just with the dlc release

[torpid storm]

O i c ty

[white quarry]

kbm was present and fully functional before the sotv rebuild, that rebuild completely removed it and it seems like it’s back with sots, but for some reason inverted vertically like you said

[midnight flame]

Happy spookie month everyone

[vernal pebble]

I found something out

As railgunner, if you have the correct amount of attack speed (and maybe regular speed too, idk I use mocha more) and look at just the right angle, you can ice skate as her

[ivory mountain]

You can do that with any character with enough or not enough movement speed

My friend got like 12 of the lunar item that doubles your health but decreases movement speed and then got a bunch of hoofs

The basic attack would slide him around

[short iris]

Yah, it's attack speed since her primary makes her knockbackwards slightly

Stoneflux is a whole different set of jank since it doesn't actually reduce your speed in the way you think so it'll make you very slippery with enough stacks/movement speed
Absolutely horrendous if you're playing mul-t

[hot hill]

Probably had to reduce friction for it or it would've controlled worse

Which leads to funny interactions when you counteract the speed loss

[frail merlin]

Got distracted

[short iris]

Reminds me of the Isaac clip where they did the same thing with God head and then they got shot with a purple fire and died before getting to pick it up

[fathom linden]

[rose river]

Yall seeing whats going on in the xbox lfg

Its been happening for like a week why are people beefing its so pathetic

[short iris]

Everyone keeps saying this but I don't have an Xbox can anyone spill the tea

I'm so curious

[rose river]

U can use the xbox app i think

[short iris]

Ok well. I'm curious but not curious enough to download and sign up for the Xbox app

[hot hill]

Same

[short iris]

I'd have to make an account and evrtyhting

[noble furnace]

Later once I go back to my house I can take some screenshots if they are still there.

[rose river]

I could screenshot ig

Id need to censor alot of users do

...and colourcode them so context isnt lost

[noble furnace]

Go ahead if you want.

[rose river]

Nah

[hot hill]

Sounds like a lot of effort

[rose river]

Just tdlr two people started beefing because like one person threw a fit over a run they did

Its evovled into like
11 of the 22 posts being about said arguemeant

That og post was from last week.

A good chunk of the 11 are making fun of the people beefing but still

[jagged mist]

Why does Acrid still take fall damage? I thought that was supposed to be fixed?

[short iris]

was never fixed, infact it got added with the latest console update lol

[wispy crypt]

Rest in piss my clips thanks discord

10mb upload limit

My clips are usually 18mb because Im too lazy to cut then most of the time

So now almost all of them have become unusable

This also makes posting bug clips 10 times more annoying

[frail merlin]

We both use the same system so why can’t you post your clip when I can

[rose river]

Beat false son as engi :3

[noble furnace]

The music... Just gives me chills, the fight is BS just because of the laser but the music.

[frail merlin]

Siren call 5 times in a row, I’m gonna go insane

[elder tapir]

The whirring grows loud.

Also damn I got survivor of void cuz it was on sale and railgunner is peakkkk lmao

The autotracking primary fire makes it less of a console skill issue tooo

[stuck flume]

idk like the fact that she has no lore, otherwise shes perfect

[short iris]

Chat 1 block jump for the raw chicken or 1 block vertical jump for the beef

[junior perch]

Idk if it's just me being a bad gamer or if it's the SOTS DLC making the game harder, but I have not been able to win a single Eclipse run since the DLC came out.

I can't even win Eclipse 1.

[frail merlin]

We love double elites

[junior perch]

Oh yeah, the number of Elites that spawn now is ridiculous.

The number of games I've run that have ended because of Gilded & Overloading elites since the dlc is insane

[noble furnace]

Meanwhile I'm doing eclipse on chef I am already at eclipse 4 on him and I already completed seeker and false son.

[junior perch]

Does this mean I'm just bad?

[short iris]

No it just means that Calvin is too good

[elder tapir]

Real

[frail merlin]

My winning rate has gotten a massive hit, I usually just get overwhelmed with elites on stage 4 and die or spend the next 10+ min struggling.

[junior perch]

Ah, ok. So Calvin is just a God then

[frail merlin]

Straight up refusing to play chef because all my run gotta have a certain amount of rng or you will spend ages to kill anything

[noble furnace]

It's just a lot of learning, I have been playing since skills 2.0 update and since eclipse was released I played a lot of it so I do have a lot of knowledge of how to do macro and micro in the game to succeed with the rng I get or at least try best with the items I get, trust me, I know almost every single way to take advantage of all the items even the bad ones.

[junior perch]

I guess you have a point. I've been paying since a little before Captain was added but only started playing Eclipse around last year

[frail merlin]

That would be a convincing point if all the new dlc item didn’t have less synergy than bison

[short iris]

Calvin taking peak advantage of unstable transmitter

[noble furnace]

Remember that I discovered a use with knockback fin and captain.

[frail merlin]

And should I share my war bond engi combo???

[short iris]

Fun fact, knockback fin has an internal cooldown of 5 seconds so even though the shotgun knockback gets added to it, knockback fin can only proc once on an enemy every 5 seconds

[noble furnace]

Maybe with engi turrets I can take advantage of unstable transmitter.

[noble furnace]

Welp, every 5 seconds you can push an enemy to the cliff or to a damage overtime that some stages have.

[noble furnace]

War bonds don't have salvation, maybe with the new lunar but.... 50 gold

[elder tapir]

Are any of rail’s alts besides the utility worth? Idk abt the secondary alt but I like how it feels, more room to mess up and don’t gotta do the reload thing every shot

[junior perch]

Engi turrets using Unstable transmitter is wild

[elder tapir]

Like is the freeze shot even good or just filler lmao

[frail merlin]

Engi turret with war bond gives gold, so combine that with the new equipment you can farm to lvl 99 on the lunar bazaar

[short iris]

Railgunner cryocharge is incredible but under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES do not use the alternative mines

[elder tapir]

Y

[short iris]

Freeze shot is incredibly good, imo it's better then the base but without taking my bias into account it's atleast on the same level

[elder tapir]

Why’s it incredible, is the freeze long?

oh nice. Wb the mines tho

[junior perch]

Freeze shot?

[short iris]

Mines provide incredible movement once you learn it and having 1 mine for the benefit of slowing projectiles (????) is not good

[junior perch]

Ooooh cryocharge

[elder tapir]

Goootcha

[short iris]

You can instant detonate the mine if you throw out another one, it also let's you skip pillars without items if you have base mines

[noble furnace]

Depends on your playstyle, if you like more damage and perfect reloading but if you miss you waste a lot of damage and the alt is less damage per shoot but not a punishing if you miss.

[elder tapir]

Is the alternate secondary preference, ik it can’t annihilate things like default but I like the room for mistakes with faster fire rate and no reload

[elder tapir]

Right right

[noble furnace]

Exactly

[short iris]

The alternative secondary and special is preference yea

[noble furnace]

What qwp wrote

[elder tapir]

Coool thanks guys :3

[short iris]

Btw is your pfp wortox from dont starve together

[elder tapir]

Yeah lol

[frail merlin]

Bdw anyone been encountering a bug where the wurm projectile just randomly go invisible, making you take stacks of fire damage out of nowhere.

[noble furnace]

Yep, that is why wurms are the enemy I hate the most, that plus a lot of health for what they do and they can go underground and become immortal.

[frail merlin]

At least they aren’t so consistent with their attack even on e7 which compared to mushroom will just constantly barrage you and can even hit you in the air(I hate mushrooms)

[noble furnace]

That is the only good thing that they have

[noble furnace]

Ohhhh, noted.

[noble furnace]

Dark times.....

[junior perch]

Never forget the great RoR2 drout

[noble furnace]

The 800+ days of waiting.

[frail merlin]

JOON

[noble furnace]

Good old times

[elder tapir]

Yooo that might proc sac dagger

[junior perch]

It might, yeah.

Now that I think about it, I think I'm just bad.

I was doing a False Son E1 run earlier today and I got Spare Drone Parts with 6 drones. I was chilling. And then I died to the lava on Helminth Hatchery during stage 5 tele boss because I didn't realize I was standing in it while I'm just lasering down an overloading worm

[noble furnace]

Talking about False son, I am on the side where I can say that laser burst is better than laser of the father the more growth stacks you have.

[frail merlin]

I win!

[junior perch]

Is the damage inconsistencies with laser burst just how it works? Like, do you have to hit a certain part of the enemy with it to do the maximum damage or is it bugged?

Because sometimes I've dealt like, 120 damage and other times I've dealt around 90

[karmic glade]

Is there any way to fix this bug

[junior perch]

You try turning it off and back on again?

[noble furnace]

Pause, go to log books and resume back to your run

[karmic glade]

Ah nice thank you

[noble furnace]

Oh yeah it's bugged, but I am not talking about the damage of laser burst I am talking about the utility, that 30% recovering of spikes gets really crazy the more stacks of growth you have in comparison of laser of the father where only recovers 1 spike per second use of the laser.

[frail merlin]

You aren’t really after the spikes when using the default laser tho

[noble furnace]

Exactly I am more into using spikes and that is why I like more the alt special.

[frail merlin]

I think that’s enough

[noble furnace]

MORE, NO BALLS.

[frail merlin]

I would if it wasn’t in the middle of the night

[noble furnace]

Okay

I really like how prayers beads started as, "kind of confusing but good item if you remove it " to "the best item if you see a printer of it"

[frail merlin]

It’s still a pretty decent item, like increasing your damage(plus other stats) and getting a green scrap in return is a great deal

[noble furnace]

Yeah, it reminds me of the first generation of sticky bombs, by itself it was good enough but if you saw a printer of it, it becomes the best item in the game.

[frail merlin]

This one gotta be far more broken tho, I am 1-2 shooting everything and dealing 7k damage with my primary

[noble furnace]

But remember, you still have 0.5 proc coefficient.

[frail merlin]

Mhm

[noble furnace]

Bro, not even antler shield damage gets saved by prayers beads printer, it did 6 damage:

[torn fossil]

antler shield is considered utility right

cant let that thing live inside of a damage chest

[frail merlin]

I remember bolstering lantern being a utility item but I don’t know about antler shield

[frail merlin]

Now that I think about it ror2 has gotten it sotv comsole port and it second dlc+free mini content update before silksong

[short iris]

What if silksong comes out and it's ass

[analog citrus]

Then the Hollow Knight fandom’s will become the villain of gaming

[short iris]

Sorry that's taken up by live service first person multiplayer games

[analog citrus]

True

[short iris]

God it'd be so funny if the game just straight up never releases

[proud mango]

I’m not gonna lie the chief is decent

[noble furnace]

[elder tapir]

Can I give executive card to equipment drone or is that dumb

[sweet edge]

you can but it won't do anything

[elder tapir]

Rip

[sweet edge]

the equipment only affects the holder

[elder tapir]

:(

[junior perch]

Only cool thing about Antler Shield is how it looks

[steel pine]

true but it might be a little much for a white

considering most others are just glasses or a syringe sticking out of your leg

[noble furnace]

The only thing that could save antler shield in my opinion is that they changed the chance to reflect damage to 10% per stack and reflec 50%-60% of damage taken per stack, this way at least if you reach 100% chance to reflect you are reflecting 500%-600% of damage taken back and it could be interesting, maybe increase the proc coefficient from 0.3 to 0.5 but that one I don't feel like it is necessary, I just think that the idea of reflect damage taken back is a good idea but it needs to feel powerful once you reach high stacks.

[meager niche]

Is anyone having trouble joining friends in multiplayer from the recent update

[deft river]

Lobbies are kinda busted in my experience with it so far

[elder tapir]

Aight how do i use fiend Jesus 😭 why is he so tufff lmao

[delicate cave]

void fiend jesus's second coming

but uh play him mixed, going for proc and avoiding auto heals

let me get a link to a convo i had earlier

[elder tapir]

Ok but likeee I tried avoiding heal items and I uhhh died

💀

[delicate cave]

started about here #ror2-game-questions message

and heals are good, just be able to control it
like medkit is good

leeching seed for example is bad

it drains corrupt like twice as fast unless you have full crit

[elder tapir]

Damn

Aight ty I’ll try it out. It’s just going from a few rail runs to fiend is a little jarring lmao

[noble furnace]

Eclipse 4 done. 5 attempts.

[rigid prawn]

I've joined the switch community

[sleek grotto]

Tf is that control scheme >_>

[rigid prawn]

It's me dealing with goddamn handheld

[sleek grotto]

That still doesn't explain it

[cloud oracle]

Normal controller scheme?

Same for PlayStation and Xbox

[hot hill]

It's not the default but seems fine

[final ice]

Honestly that’s a solid control scheme

[fresh bane]

Here we go xbox servers are down,major outage
Update:its back

[vernal pebble]

I love Xbox outages! Woooo! Yeah!!

[rigid prawn]

Gentlemen, i did it

[unkempt idol]

[main bridge]

👏

[sour token]

I need help

[noble furnace]

What happen?

[sour token]

I was getting to stage 5 on my switch (as artificer) but it crashed

😦

[wispy crypt]

Happens

[sour token]

cuz I was trying to get artifact of chaos

here and there

[noble furnace]

Switch is really likely to crash in comparison of the other consoles because of the hardware limitations and risk of rain 2 is a heavy hardware game especially if you grab a lot of items that generates effects or do things that force even more the hardware.

[wispy crypt]

Ehh

Gearbox def fucked some shit up

The switch used to be giga tanky against crashes

[noble furnace]

That also.

[wispy crypt]

I crashed once in all my playtime before sots

[sour token]

and I was using artifact of spite and kin doing so

in my runs

[noble furnace]

The bombs from spite are really heavy for the hardware and it lags Really easily.

[sour token]

o I forgor

since I could try and get artifact of honor or chaos maybe without artifact of spite lol

[noble furnace]

Yeah, I recommend to turn off spite, even on Xbox series x lags if there are like 30-40 bombs active at the same time which easily happens at stage 4 and above.

[sour token]

if spite doesn’t fuck up my switch then I’m ok

but it doesn’t happen in prismatic trials

[wispy crypt]

Trials are short

[sour token]

yes

[frail merlin]

Ever since I’ve started closing my game on every run I haven’t crashed so much

[wispy crypt]

Same but it still happens occasionally

Especially in multiplayer which is not great

[frail merlin]

Chef guide on how to deal with airborne enemies. Like trying to tame a wild beast

[weary lantern]

Damn… seeker with some repulsion and razorwire is completely broken

[noble furnace]

Talking about seeker, did you know that the "20% max hp damage per second after 3 seconds" of soujorn is a lie?
It doesn't deal 20% of your max HP, it deals a % of your base damage, this means that if you get items that increase your HP the damage of soujorn is less noticeable.

[short iris]

I thought the % deal was based off of your level hp instead of your true hp

[frail merlin]

Least misleading ror2 description

[noble furnace]

Maybe I misunderstood from Raydans video, yesterday I heard a video of him while I was working and I heard something about that soujorn damage is based on your level base damage not by your overall base HP, maybe I misheard because I was working and everything but it got my curiosity and I wanted to share it.

[wispy crypt]

Ye its based off of level

I think

[noble furnace]

This is what I heard from Raydans.
https://youtu.be/SVmRiYZtKUU?t=637&si=DpImkER80O_70avG

[short iris]

I can't blame him for getting it wrong it's so confusing

The inner mechanisms of the dlc are stupid and weird and make no sense

[frail merlin]

I still don’t understand why gearbox kept doing misleading and wrong description from hoopoo I don’t think anyone was asking for that

[verbal moon]

Friends :D

[empty turret]

No..NO

[low cargo]

anyone else have random crashes on switch when going between levels

[elder tapir]

Um I’m at $-417,000,000 I think I’m winning

Does the purple portal path get you any coins or is it just to get fiend lol

[noble furnace]

The scariest and funniest void fields I have ever done.

[kindred heron]

Congrats!

[prime sky]

How the hell

[noble furnace]

Yes.

[unkempt idol]

"There are no laws against the geometry, Stanley!"

[noble furnace]

And eclipse 5 chef done, I had FMP as equipment.

https://youtu.be/Tox4hqlKD88?si=Lzpdq0-86ZK-NP-G

[hot hill]

Neat, I finished the artifact trial, got the artifact, aaaaaaaaand the portal didn't spawn

😐

I got this huge ass drone for 1400 or something and i had great dps items but then i got 1 shotted by an elder lumerian

[dusky rivet]

https://tenor.com/view/risk-of-rain-pain-rex-elder-lemurian-gubsup-gif-20788385

[noble furnace]

Classic elder Lemurians.

[elder tapir]

Shoulda been 5 miles in the sky by the time that thing was on your screen

[rose river]

God i hope they fix acrid soon
< was gonna test out blight for itself but cant till patch

[hot hill]

Can the switch version please have music back?

Pretty please?

[hot hill]

[torpid storm]

Yes it did almost exactly that while i was killing the first 1 the other jumped out of nowhere

I should pan my screen m9re

[noble furnace]

And you know the funny thing is? The way to prevent that is by learning where each launch pad throws and once you know where it lands those spots I like to call it "the jumpscare zone" and stay away from them the best I can.

[torpid storm]

God i hate memorization thanks for the tip tho

Ill probably accidently memorize it since this games fun as hell tho

[noble furnace]

Yep, it's a little tedious to learn but once you master the game it becomes like a normal thing to do that you don't think about it, it just comes out automatically.

[frosty gorge]

Just lost an 80 minute run w really good rng because bulwark ambry portal never spawned

[hot hill]

@frosty gorge same

[frosty gorge]

Damn, post yours in the bug reports too if you haven't already it might get their attention

#ror2-bug-reports-console

[wispy crypt]

I dont think they look there

[hot hill]

I figured the portal not spawning was an already known bug

And they're working on it

[wispy crypt]

They mostly look in the bug report threads

[hot hill]

I need to check if anyone has reported the bug for engis harpoons not firing but still consuming charges randomly

Otherwise I've got a video I gotta upload

Hmm, doesn't look like it

Guess I'll actually contribute to the bug list

I've also noticed that one of the ledges in the spooky second stage (can't remember name) is specifically bugged for switch still

Like, on ps5 I can walk on the ledge without issue but on switch, you kind of hover without being able to jump

[elder tapir]

Yeah seems a loootta ppl havin that problem lmao, whether it’s portal not spawning or enemies not even spawning in bulwark

[main bridge]

https://tenor.com/view/risk-of-rain-obliterate-yourself-now-risk-of-rain-ltg-gif-24997259

[frail merlin]

Gearbox what the hell is this?

[noble furnace]

Yeah, if you spam multiple charges of glaze that happens, you need to wait for all the attacks to come out to use another charge.

[frail merlin]

I know what happened, it’s just very disappointing and such a weird thing. Like it would have been awesome if it stacked like some shotgun or something.

[noble furnace]

Yeah

[frail merlin]

No way another fuel cell printer, time to go all in again.

[noble furnace]

Let's gooooo

[steel lion]

gonna need a bigger royal capacitor

[junior perch]

No, get void banded

[mighty citrus]

Wonder when the next patch will be

[noble furnace]

You picked up PRAYERS BEADS (20)

At 20k health I stop.

[untold valley]

How does it work? Do you just keep using the 3D printer getting rid of all your green items?

[noble furnace]

Yeah if there is no scrapper in the stage you can go all in and win.

Either with a scrapper you just scrap the green items that don't help you that much and print the green scrap into prayers beads, get the stacks, scrap prayers beads, print prayers beads, get stacks of prayers beads, scrap prayers beads and repeat.

[untold valley]

And it’s pretty much an instant win right?

Since it gives you hp defense and damage?

[rigid prawn]

Now hit a shrine of order

[noble furnace]

From what I know it gives health, damage and health Regen, the important part is the health and damage.

[noble furnace]

Welp, give me an hour because I got a phone call and I have to wait for something, I left just arriving at stage 5 the run and I don't want to loop so it's the shrine of order on the moon.

[untold valley]

Terrifying, how long does it take to get to 20K hp?

[noble furnace]

From 20 stacks I started at 36 minutes in game and finished at 45 minutes in game.

[untold valley]

I’m guessing it’s more than enough to one shot everything at that point

[noble furnace]

Sorry I meant 36 because I saw the printer at 34 minutes but I was farming for the legendary chest.

[elder tapir]

Haven’t seen one of those in forever 😭

[noble furnace]

They can spawn in rally point delta and there is one guarantee in the moon.

[noble furnace]

And eclipse 6 Chef done, it took me 2 attempts but the fun part is that I could have finished in the first attempt because it was where I got the prayer beads printer but the thing of the clip happened.
Context about the clip: there was a void seed and the last enemy was that bell, I thought that I can yolo myself so I can kill the bell and then let safer spaces save me from the fall, I proceed to execute my plan and when I killed the bell I believe the fucking void tick hit me mid air and proc safer spaces.

And now that I think about it, I could have used the armor from charging the roll to reduce the fall damage but I completely ignored the "blocked" sound from safer space.

[dusky rivet]

Such a free win wasted

[elder tapir]

I’ve heard given the price of seekers I should prob just wait a bit till some bugs get fixed and items changed?

[jaunty osprey]

Yeah

[hot hill]

The big bugs have been fixed so far

[jaunty osprey]

Some annoying bugs still remain too, just got softlocked in the ambry and had to forfeit a killer railgunner run

[hot hill]

Same but to be fair, that's not caused by the dlc

If they're looking at the content of it, I'd say it's worth it but I wouldn't blame anyone waiting for a sale

[jaunty osprey]

Word? Is it something that can actually be avoided? Aside from just not going to the ambry?

[hot hill]

Ye

[short iris]

Chat is this cope or with the new update taking more time they'll plan ahead with companies and get the udpate to drop on consoles too within atleast a few days time right I'm not coping right

[dusky rivet]

[viscid mantle]

Hello, I’m on switch
I’ve completed runs with MUL-T and REX (it still shows Victory! in my run history), but it won’t give me their logbook entries

Should I post this in bug reports, or this known and a waste of time

[short iris]

It's most likely known but more attention being brung to it properly probably won't hurt

[viscid mantle]

Ok

[dusky rivet]

Winning on eclipse wont count it if you were doing that.

[short iris]

Just watched raydans lose a run to a scorching worm attack that was literally invisible and was missing the aoe indicator LOL

Can you really blame him for complaining when shit like that happens

[rose river]

Glad to see thar isnt just a me thing

Ive had the exact same happen where the aoe rings model just fucking disspearing

Pc...just three weeks away...

[wispy crypt]

You do know that thats also a bug on pc right

[dusky rivet]

Mods

But the mods that one need to have the majority of the bug fixed is getting a bit to much, i prefer not having my games to heavily modded

[jagged mist]

I hope they fix Acrid soon.

[hot hill]

Same

[rose river]

Im downpatching n just playing with mods lol

Im just...not a huge fan of the dlc rn

[rose river]

Because like
Sure i could just play the dlc with the mods that fix it

But im not buying something thats a buggymess just to fix with community made stuff

It should be like that by default.

[noble furnace]

You know what, for eclipse 7 and 8 chef I am going to play with yes chef.. wish me luck.

[frail merlin]

See you next year

[rose river]

Yes chef is my favourite alt primary ability

(Youre never gonna use the other upgrades

[noble furnace]

Welp, I just started a run and there are 2 mountain shrine.

[hot hill]

You're not a coward, right?

[noble furnace]

Nop I am not but I love getting 3 wandering vagrants as chef on titanic plains.

Wtf is the proc coefficient from the tornado attack of the roll from yes chef?

OMG, the only worth boosted ability is the primary, sear boosted the problem is sear is general, the range after the 3 balls and the 2 seconds of end lag and the boosted roll gets fucked because of the bug of ignite cutting out bleed timer.

[hot hill]

Beautiful

[hybrid geyser]

Oh here's the console people

Anyone know why I can't access the DLC offline?

Like, the internet's gonna be out for a minute, I figured I'd just play some Ror2 and fuck around, but what do you know, no DLC

[noble furnace]

Yeah, that only happens on Xbox that you need internet connection to get access to the DLCs.

[hybrid geyser]

That's

Stupid as fuck

[rose river]

Dont ya just love consoles

[noble furnace]

Yeah, I don't know who was behind that decision, maybe the higher-ups on gearbox, maybe Microsoft itself, maybe the gearbox team in charge of the game but this one I doubt because it would be the same for everyone.

[rose river]

Probably just jack because how they decide to use the trigger for if you have the dlc lol

Sorry jank*

[noble furnace]

Okay.... Yes chef can be good but the bug of ignite and bleed, sear in general and the only viable ability is the cleaver but you need to be in MELEE range to take advantage of it, it makes me regret the idea I had of using it, on top of that I am used to the cooldown cycle with glaze and with yes chef the cooldown cycle throws me off, is like ion surge artificer, I don't like ion surge because it throws me off the cooldown cycle with it in comparison with flamethrower where I can attack with anything all the time.

[raw wing]

use primary boost 99% of the time but also

when ur charging yes chef your cds reset

but u only get to use the boost after charging
