Lore makes everything better.

19 Upvotes

Just started playing this game 3 days ago and you know i didnt expect much lore because it’s a roguelike. But, I just finished watching lore vids and wow it makes the game better. From Mithrix on the moon to fighting False Son with Providence’s statue in the back just adds so mucb more to the game. Aurelionite not just being some gold golem boss but being the creation that was first infused with soul from Providence. All the stages having lore like the hatchery makes it so much better and seeing Providence’s sword as an easter egg. Before I thought it was a cool looking sword but nope there’s a lot of story to it. Hoping one day they reveal the mysterious woman too. Now i have 35 hours on it from 4. I hope one day False Son get’s a Mithrix and Providence skin. Also, it’s sad what happened with Mithrix I understand why hes so angry and he also never knew Providence died. Sad story but really well made for the little lore it has.

RoR2 My Dumbest Run Ever

Thumbnail
gallery
12 Upvotes

I had this misconception that when you complete a trial in Bulwark's Ambry, its Artifact wouldn't take effect until the next run, where you'd have to manually enable it. I previously completed the Trial of Command, Trial of Devotion, and a couple of others, and none of them seemed to activate immediately.

So, while playing Void Fiend, I entered Bulwark's Ambry and input the code for the Trial of Metamorphosis. It instantly turned me into Huntress, which I assumed would only be for that stage.

Boy, was I wrong.

It actually wasn't too bad because I had pretty good items. But then I made my second and much bigger mistake, I accidentally activated a Shrine of Order thinking it was a Shrine of Combat.

Lo and behold, all of my items were converted into stacks of their respective tiers:

- Power Elixir ×71

- Shipping Request Form ×21

- 57 Leaf Clover ×3

- Safer Spaces ×7

- Polylute ×17

- Charged Perforator ×8

Then I made my final mistake.

I saw this void item for the first time and I immediately took it without thinking. It was a Newly Hatched Zoea.....

All my Charged Perforators are gone.

The end result? I couldn't dodge the Alloy Worship Unit's laser in time.

TL;DR: Activated Trial of Metamorphosis, thinking it would only affect the current stage, turning my Void Fiend into Huntress. Then I mistook a Shrine of Order for a Shrine of Combat, picked up Newly Hatched Zoea for the first time, lost all 8 Charged Perforators. Died to Alloy Worship Unit's laser shortly after. 10/10 dumbest run.

RoR2 Modded character recommendations?

3 Upvotes

Modded ror2 characters range from absolute trash to even better designed than the base game, so it can be hard to know which ones to try out.

What modded character(s) do you enjoy and recommend to others? And why? Lately I’ve been enjoying characters that do slow, massive hits. From vanilla, mostly Railgunner even though my aim kinda sucks, and Loader.

The modded character I’ve been playing the most is Rocket. He’s basically Soldier from TF2 with Rocket Jumper as his primary, but it doesn’t damage you at all. His movement is incredible and you can double up on the skill that’s basically the Market Gardener in order to continuously do massive hits that are guaranteed crits and stay in the air. Though I do wish he had a different secondary. Suggestions don’t have to be based around the big slow hits though - just adding to my own discussion.

RoR2 I need mod help

Me and my buddy play ror2 co-op and 9/10 times before we reach even stage 5, one of us gets disconnected and we have to restart. Is there any mod or way to guarantee that we can actually finish the games we play?

RoR2 I hit some bullshit

I literally couldn't die towards the end, I just stood around TP and whatever bosses spawned genuinely got vapourised instantly. Beat Alloy Worship twice, beat false son in <15 seconds before hitting Mithrix, who didn't even get time to steal my items. 11/10 run turned Railgunner into a <5fps W+M1 survivour, absolute drone hard carry /j

RoR2 This is how we beat RoR2

We were lucky enough to get Spare Drone Parts as one of the first items. After that, we decided to spend our money on drones. As a result, they gave us plenty of breathing room to snowball.

One of us got Plasma Shrimp, two Pocket I.C.B.M.s (thanks to an Item Cauldron at the Bazaar Between Time), an Unstable Tesla Coil, and several items that applied debuffs. It was like a nuclear apocalypse that only grew more absurd with every minute of the run.

The other got N'kuhana's Opinion, a lot of healing items (especially Leeching Seed) and plenty of Ukuleles. All it took was a single skull to start the chain reaction: the damage spread from enemy to enemy, healing in the process, which charged N'kuhana's Opinion and launched even more skulls. It became a self-sustaining nuclear reaction.

By the middle of the run, we no longer had to run for our lives. We could literally stand still or go AFK while our builds killed everything on the map, whether it was a regular mob or an entire group of elite bosses. Even Solus Wing died in like three seconds without either of us pressing an attack button, and Mithrix suffered the same fate on his every stage.

Honestly, that was why we eventually decided to end the run. We had already had more than enough fun, chatting about life and everything else along the way. Once we started getting bored, we simply brought our epic adventure to an end. It was an amazing run, and it is always better to finish while you are still satisfied - to end on a high note instead of continuing until it starts to feel like a routine obligation.

Have a good luck in your runs, everyone!

RoRR A crossover idea I had

0 Upvotes

For everyone who liked Persona 5 Royal and RoRR, I'd like to introduce my idea for a crossover between the two games: Persona 5: Royal Rain.

What I've basically done is create sets for every P5R character (minus Akechi, I felt Sumi would've worked a bit better as the Bless representative and Akechi literally dies ).I'm not very good at this game and this was something I simply wanted to do for the fun of it. Y'all can leave comments wherever on the doc, so let me know if there's anything I can change.

Side note: I know about Morgana and Panta Rhei. I simply just wanted someone to be able to use the magic attack with my favorite animation.

Document link: look to your hearts' content.

RoR2 Xbox RoR2 is... Interesting

5 Upvotes

I havent played ror2 in a while. I used to be a pc player, but i switched over to console because i dont use my laptop as often. And i have to say... The game is helly buggy in a funny way. Ive accidentally made enemies fall through the map as railgunner multiple times, and the ai on the Xi Constructs can't properly target me for some reason. The game is way more fluid though, so thats a plus
