@Kidfried ouch! Sorry to hear that, dude. I can totally understand your frustrations as I've had multiple crashes and have had to reinstall twice. I nearly sold the game. It's massively unfair.

@Kidfried @PossibLeigh You guys have definitely had it rough with this game. There really doesn't seem to be rhyme or reason as to why this is worse for some people than others, and I guess that's why it's taking so long to fix these issues. After the save issue that accompanied that one patch I'd imagine they don't want to rush anything else out, but want to get it right this time. Let us hope that when something drops it fixes more issues than it causes!

Sounds like I've been lucky (so far) then. I had a great run earlier and got through biome 5 but I was surprised to find there wasn't a boss fight!

I picked up a great item that drops it to needing just two resins to upgrade the suit so I'm on well over 200% health and doing well through biome 6. Fingers crossed from a run to the boss!

@Thrillho Good luck. If you manage it I’d be interested to see the boss fight vid.

I think I'm ready to go back to Atropos and hunt those collectibles now

Ok, just 1 run today but it lasted 2+ hours. Cleared the ruins, skipped, Phrike, made good progress on Crimson Wastes collectibles, skipped Ixion, made very small progress on Citadel's collectibles but went all the way and killed Nemesis. Got a datacube too.
Not too bad, I guess.

@Voltan I’ve been annoyingly unlucky with datacubes so far. Only found two and lost both before getting them to the thingy! Props for actually getting them 😂

@nessisonett This one was in the Wastes but I actually forgot I had it until I reached the processor in the Citadel 😅
In biomes 1 and 4 they're usually behind destructible walls. Unfortunately in 1 the processor is behind Phrike.

Oh, I also officially fought every kind of enemy now. The one I was missing was a Malformed Archonact. Annoying guy

That’s Hyperion down. I now fully get behind the lobber. In fact, the game’s balance as a whole is so much better in Act 2. The weapon traits make the weapons a lot more diverse.

@Voltan Must of had the damage on long fall? That’s brutal.

I used an obolite repository to swap some ether for obolites to buy something. I’ve now been standing next to another for 10 minutes in the hope that it will spit out an item and then allow me to do another trade so I can buy a health kit. It’s gone from 3000 to 399 in that time. This isn’t going to happen.

I’ve managed to get 7 data cubes in all so not too bad. Once I got two in one biome and managed to trade them both in. Woohoo.

Had a great run this evening. Went back to biome 1 and just took my time exploring it fully, now that I've grapple. Did absolutely everything I could reach, including the challenge room, even unlocked a couple of new weapons, and gave Phrike a second beating!

I got further into biome 3 too, although I don't feel like I've got to grips with it at all yet. Met a few new enemy types, but I'm struggling with those drones ...

Wooooooo I did it. Finished act 2. The ending WTF?

Onto Biome 6 now! Loving the environment this time round.

@JigsawPieces The drones are evil. They’re harder than all the bosses put together.

@JigsawPieces I found the void beam alt-fire to be absolutely brilliant at destroying those things. You have to hold the trigger down and wave it in their general direction and they just explode. It’s very satisfying.

Act 2 completed! I did it all in one run which was massively satisfying. Honestly can’t believe I did it although I’m a bit annoyed because I was one resin away from 200% integrity 😂

Dunno how to check how long my run took but by my estimation it was about 2 and a half to 3 hours.

@nessisonett damn that’s the same as me, I was on 195 integrity. I did get my proficiency to 30 though and had an awesome hollowseeker.

render

nessisonett

@render I was on proficiency 29. With a level 29 Hollowseeker. I think I need a lie down being that close to the trophies but I’m honestly just chuffed to have destroyed act 2. And that final boss fight was with two malfunctions, dash cooldown increased by 2.5 seconds and 1 random artifact disabled 😂
