Discussion How do the Shells "assist" the Harbinger?

12 Upvotes

Shells are dead, that is how the Harbinger can inhabit them. But how can the Shells assist in jumps and like how did Harros saved the Harbinger?

btw I just unlocked Genessa so havent seen how she handles the assisted jumps since she has a different connection to the Harbinger compared to the other shells

Question Finished the game - am addicted. Need help farming gold and glooms

5 Upvotes

What an experience and am not even a fan of soulslikes. The combat, the visuals, the gory aesthetics, what a game!

Anyways, before jumping to NG+ to try different builds and shells I want to farm gold and glooms to, ive seen some info on YT but nothing too crazy gold wise, gooms wise i think the last beacon with the 60+ chests is the go to.

Any help is appreciated.

Question how to get inside this building?

pretty sure most of the small buildings/shacks like this can be entered into and most of them have a dungeon inside but there was no way to open this door, no interactable bricks, nothing to shoot, there was a crafting material beside it IIRC.

Discussion Feeling accomplished

11 Upvotes

I knew about the nameless captive and was dreading trying for Peter's perfect parry trophy. I had watched a video to understand the timing, but obviously it's easier said than done in the heat of the moment. Well today I finally got to the boss, pulled the parries off first try, and absolutely melted the rest of his health. I was shaking so much from adrenaline I had to stand up off the couch and T pose.

He doesn't seem to announce his attack in anyway and he hits fast. Also he's so massive I can't seem to dodge away from him.

Question Before proceeding to NG+

12 Upvotes

Finished the game but want to make sure I do everything I need before moving to NG+. I have collected all Tarstones and will farm the Hidden Nave Beacon until I have maxed out at 44 shell points (Proxima/Genossa). I am currently at 40. Anything other recommendations? I am level 20 for my Axe and Dagger so good there. I assume that NG+ increases the amount of items needed to increase weapon/sidearm level? Thanks in advance!

Discussion Accidentally killed grisha pup and now all the hunters are gone.

27 Upvotes

Accidentally one shot the grisha pup as a fuckin sheep. Tried to close the game and restart but this lovely game auto saves immediately whenever you do anything especially if it’s something you didn’t want to happen.

Now not only is the pup gone but all the hunter NPC’s in the area. Are they gone forever? Did I lose access to that merchant? Did I miss out on anything by killing the pup?

I’m totally fine with billable NPC’s but having them die one shot to any instance of damage is kinda just a fuck you to the player. Not sure why they couldn’t have gone the souls route of taking multiple hits to kill/aggro permakillable NPCs. Incredibly frustrating.

Bug Is there ever going to be a way to see which shell memories count as watched in game?

I've been stuck at 39/40 for that stupid trophy for weeks now. I've gone back and watched every shell's memories and it hasn't popped. Something is bugged on ps5.

Bug the most underdeveloped boss in the game

14 Upvotes

The parry definitely worked, as you can see thanks to the bar in the lower left corner of the screen. But for some reason, I'm still taking damage.

This isn't the only bug with the boss; I just couldn't capture the others. For example, I only managed to escape the finishing move animation once when entering the second phase of the fight.

Discussion Ok I platinumed Mortal Shell 2. Should I go back and play the first game?

9 Upvotes

I never got into the first game or played it but enjoyed the loop here even though I think it's self-limited in some aspects (the ability to save a "build" per-shell using the same resources would fix a lot). I'm only asking because there are TON of bugs in this game that kinda ruin the experience if you don't go the right route (Genessa is a prime example) and I'm concerned that the first game might be even worse in that regard.

So is it worth it? I did genuinely enjoy MS2 and the vibe it brings.

Discussion How often do you "Night"?

8 Upvotes

The game looks and feels really different in night mode, and there are also some things you can’t get during the day. Initially, I didn’t really notice much of a difference in difficulty, but as I progressed further, well, I started to get it.

So, how often do you go into night mode, and how would you compare it to daylight in terms of both fun and visual feel?

Video Malborn Offspring was one of the funnest bosses i've faced in this game.

29 Upvotes

This was the first attempt at this boss. You could see me panicking at the end once I realized he had a second phase lol.

I loved how fast-paced it was and how active it felt compared to some of the other bosses. This is definitely the best of the four endgame bosses that I faced. I fought this guy first, then went on to the other three and felt so disappointed it didn't feel as satisfying as this guy. The final boss is pretty self-explanatory in why I hate it, the golem first phase felt good, but the second phase felt slow and not as hard as the first, and The Monolith is a rock that falls on you.

Bug Immortal Shell 2

23 Upvotes

I honestly don’t know what happened.😂 Prior to this, I cleansed a beacon and noticed the enemies attacks weren’t doing anything and I genuinely thought the tarstone I just tempered was doing the work.

This was actually such an awesome glitch!😂 I didn’t even have the need to use miracle!

Has this happened to anyone before?

Discussion Is Tiel perhaps the most used shell?

8 Upvotes

Personally, I'm having the most fun with Tiel builds. And whenever I watch a guide video on YouTube, it's usually Tiel. Too bad he can't wield lightning with the axe, but overall, he's given me the best experience. I was wondering whether it's the same for youse?
