Yeah, the most used consumables are always gonna be Concoctions simply because of how they function. That said my most used consumable is the Fae Needle since you can easily buy it from Nimue and find them running Losnom. Free mod power is just good and almost always useful, it's def let me clutch a few things out. That and blight cures relevant to the area+ bandages for bleeding. I want to find a vendor for the evasion dust though. I must be the mega roller.

I think I only used the root rot because that was there at the time, everything else I just heal through. Even bleeds don't slow me down, I outheal it. E: For the executioner there was two of us and I just stood on the stairs + flamethrowered him down. That gun is so good dogstile fucked around with this message at 16:43 on Aug 7, 2023 |

I got a trait in multiplayer called Revivalist, I'm not entirely sure how I got it and the wiki page has a lot of arguing in the comments, but MAN it's good. +50% revive speed, both me reviving and being revived.

In part 1 it was from picking people up 10 times. I'm guessing it's bugged and getting reset in multiplayer just like other flags.

Can someone test if using hotshot builds mod power as you shoot while it’s active? Stuck at work thinking about builds

One of the first times I encountered root rot it seemed to bug out and cause me to permanently cough just from being hit by the attack cloud, wasn't even affected by it fully, made me avoid those attacks real good in the future though.

I saw the game being advertised a lot on Twitter a couple weeks ago and just wrote it off as a generic shooting game. Didn't really pay much attention until I heard back from some friends who were playing the game early, and it sounded right up my alley, but I was going out of town the weekend of launch so I decided to hold off and let opinions on the game settle. Came back and people were still loving the game, so I scooped it on PC and I've been digging it! I got N'Erud for my first area, and going through the Tower of the Unseen I did feel a little smart finding a way down through the elevator shaft to pick up the Shielded Heart, even though from reading the early posts in this thread this is probably one of the easier puzzles in the game. Having a blast, though! I did reroll my character early on because I didn't like the voice I chose, although I do kinda wish I got that Bloodborne-like area again. e: I will say that the central story isn't really grabbing me, but it's been easy for me to ignore and I'm digging the vibes of the N'Erud storyline so far.

The central story is dumb and feels like they made sure to bolt one on, because the previous didn't really have it. The lore and incidental storytelling is what's cool in both, like in DS.

so, I have a quick question - how much of this is randomized? like from what I think I've figured out, the zone maps have static setpiece areas and secrets but have random corridors connecting them, and each level has one of several level-specific plotlines you go through, but like, is the world map for a zone different for each playthrough? or does the same plotline have the same general world map layout? trying to wrap my head around how I wanna approach N'Erud once I unlock adventure mode.

One thing you can spot right away is that it can start you in a different location which will have a different final boss, along with side-areas and events showing up being random.

Very cool if you're just running through experiencing different content, somewhat annoying if you're trying to find a specific item locked behind a specific event

The hype for this finally made me give the original Epic freebie a go. Beat the last boss, while doing a few adventures, beat a couple of bosses on a harder difficulty. Really enjoyed it, so I guess it's fair to say I'd like the new one? Is the DLC worth it, or should I just get straight to the sequel goodness?

Remnant 1 with the Swamps of Corsus was a fun ride, although I'd suspect with the game now being this old you won't have a realistic shot at most of the neat multiplayer elements these days unless you specifically have interested friends to play with.

The sequel is the original but pretty much improved in every way imo. The Remnant 1 DLC are pretty cool, the swamp one does a lot to flesh out that zone, and the Subject one adds a mini campaign that I liked a lot (except for one teleporting miniboss that is enough to make me disable the dlc for survivor mode). Recommended.

I ended up using my starter gun until the end because by the time I got another one that wasn't a handgun I had already levelled it to 13 and the other guns wouldn't cut it. I really wish they'd scale down the amount you had to pay as you leveled up. Frame it as the ward getting richer or something, I don't know.

The weapon upgrading system is vestigial and best dumped completely IMO. After I beat the campaign I used a trainer with zero remorse to give myself enough Scrap to try out other guns.

Is it just me or is the amulet that gives +20% damage when below 100% health easily the best all-rounder? It seems too good to be true.

I use the one that is +15% dmg and then another 15 when you use a relic. When that dropped I reread it a few times looking for the catch.

It really is good. I figured it was supposed to have a modifier like, "bonus increases as health lowers", but there's actually a second ring that does that I believe.

I've been using the one that gives 20% damage at full health, and 3% lifesteal below full health. Seems like it covers all the bases well enough that I don't want to switch off from it unless I get like, all the shield gear for a shield built. Even then, healing while shielded is pretty good. I kinda love how the extender mutator can make the coach gun a triple barrel. Just straight up makes it 50% better at only like, level 3 or 4.
