I’m in a mission that requires me to go past a lot of lightning anomalies and I know if I spam my probes it sorta helps but I always seem to get hit by them and 9/10 times I die.

#

Throw probes where you wanna go rather than trying to define the borders of the lightning anomaly

#

If a path seems clear throw a probe to the left and right of it

#

And if a lightning is blocking a path

#

You can get past it by throwing a probe and running through since lightning anomalies have a reactivation period

#

How long is the reactivation period usually

wind pendant Sep 27, 2022, 4:39 PM

#

2 seconds. If you absolutely must go thru one and know you might be hit, equip the gas mask and inject a stim immediately, so that you are constantly healing on contact.

If you're on quest just avoid for now they are still bugged

It’s a confirmed bug they’re fixing, what you on about? Are you on Q2?

agile otter Sep 28, 2022, 9:16 PM

#

Yea I'm on quest @dusk bluff

dusk bluff Sep 28, 2022, 9:16 PM

#

You’ve not had the unfortunate missions that place the helix at an unreachable area within lightning anomalies

agile otter Sep 28, 2022, 9:18 PM

#

Man I'm done with the game @dusk bluff and yea I have I just run in grab it and put in the backpack and heal

#

And there are no unreachable are just confusing maps

#

A bug is a bug, you’re just lucky you didn’t encounter it.

agile otter Sep 28, 2022, 9:19 PM

#

You talking about the one where there's no more

dusk bluff Sep 28, 2022, 9:19 PM

#

It’s not a skill issue, it’s a simple bug.

agile otter Sep 28, 2022, 9:20 PM

#

I never said skill issue I said bad mission

dusk bluff Sep 28, 2022, 9:20 PM

#

The ones where you literally will die 10x over before you can even get to it. Their located within a cluster of lightning

dusk bluff Sep 28, 2022, 9:21 PM

#

agile otter I never said skill issue I said bad mission

Seemed implied as you’re saying you can run in and heal while putting it into a backpack. That is false because you drop whatever is in your hand and they strike every 2 seconds

agile otter Sep 28, 2022, 9:21 PM

#

Run out then heal also heal while going in with gas mask

dusk bluff Sep 28, 2022, 9:22 PM

#

Do you not understand what a confirmed bug is?

#

You’re not gonna be able to explain it away

#

Ha ok bud.

Stop antagonizing people. @agile otter

Good for you, feel free to post up a video of how you manage to do it in the latest quest version

#

There was a post on the subreddit I think some time yesterday that said you can just throw a grenade in there and destroy them until the next tide.

orchid phoenix Oct 3, 2022, 9:59 AM

#

no.

calm wolf Oct 3, 2022, 10:19 AM

#

wait that doesn't work?

orchid phoenix Oct 3, 2022, 10:21 AM

#

no, you cant kill anomalies

calm wolf Oct 3, 2022, 10:24 AM

#

did you try it? I didn't so it might not work, but if you are just saying no it won't because anomalies can't be killed you might be incorrect. here is the message link. #socials message

orchid phoenix Oct 3, 2022, 10:35 AM

#

Hmm

#

If it does work that's a bug

#

I'll be giving it a try later

calm wolf Oct 3, 2022, 10:47 AM

#

orchid phoenix If it *does* work that's a bug

well in this case it is a bug I absolutely don't mind existing considering how annoying these anomalies are.

orchid phoenix Oct 3, 2022, 10:52 AM

#

Yeah handy on quest, no longer needed on pc as they fixed it

#

Next update coming in October for both pc and quest which will fix it for quest also

orchid phoenix Oct 4, 2022, 10:56 AM

#

Well to my surprise this actually does work on the pc version at least. so it shows you can sometimes believe what you read on the internet lol

My God.

orchid phoenix Oct 6, 2022, 9:37 AM

#

dusk bluff Oct 6, 2022, 12:46 PM

#

Yes

ancient prairie Oct 11, 2022, 12:22 AM

#

I just overcame it by putting all my shit in a nearby safe house ran into the anomaly and harnessed my inner Tom Brady to chuck the artifact out of the anomaly hive before I died

dusk bluff Oct 11, 2022, 12:31 AM

#

I believe this bug was addressed in current Q2 version?

They decreased the size of lighting anomalies if that's what you mean yes
