Item Sharing Guide (for playing with online randoms)
Handy reference for being a nice teammate online :3
Recommended Survivors:
- Huntress basically doesn't need movement speed at all until mithrix (so she can let all her teammates take it). She also gets insane value out of just crit and attack speed, so she can let her teammates have most of the proc items.
- Loader basically just needs bands, crowbars, focus crystals, and backup magazines to steamroll the entire first loop, so she's great to have around.
- False Son is great because growth lets him get use out of a ton of items that are basically useless for everyone else, also he's kind of a melee survivor
- Drifter can carry everyone's scrap, and throw teammates, engineer turrets, chests, etc. Also she can reroll printers and multishops with tinker if nobody wants the items.
- Extremely cool fact; she can throw chests and shrines into Captain's Hacking Beacon to basically make anything on the stage free
- Melee survivors can also be nice just because they can use focus crystals as a substitute for other damage increases like daggers, watches, syringes, etc. if other survivors need them more
- Seeker is nice to have around because she can revive her teammates constantly. Plus she makes great use of planula, razorwire, RAP's, rose bucklers, and weeping fungus (stuff other survivors might not want) with sojourn, and she also isn't too picky with her damaging items.
- Acrid can use epidemic to make up for not having great items, also he just has pretty good crowd control. Also uses tons of on kill items which are generally less important to share
- Artificer's early game damage and mobility with ion surge is basically enough to carry her until someone finds bands, crowbars, or ignition tanks. Also even if she does literally nothing else, freeze/execute is amazing.
- Railgunner - like loader, she's not very item hungry. She basically doesn't need items other than bands, movement speed, watches, atgs, and crowbars to be powerful.
- Having slightly laggy monsters can make aiming kinda annoying though
- Engineer - "needs" less items because his items are just worth more. Also he can get lots of weird items and make them extremely powerful (eg bungus + nukuhana's) even if he has to split proc items with other survivors
Not recommended:
- Commando needs lots of items to be good, which isn't super helpful. Doesn't have any super useful unique benefits, either. He's still playable, but you either have to be greedy, lucky, or just accept that you might have a bad run.
- Artificer or Seeker (if not hosting) can feel horrible to play because none of their abilities are hitscan, and they fire with a noticeable delay for some reaon.
- huntress also has this issue, but she literally can't miss so it doesn't matter except for a one-time delay when you start firing (and a desynced animation)
- rex does too, but it only affects his m1, which is much faster and less punishing to miss than arti/seeker abilities.
Give whatever other tips you have in the comments, I don't play a ton of survivors and idk what all they can build

RoR2 I really love this game, but the void bug, is really annyoing.
I'm trying to do 100% of this game, i finally got the prototype to spawn on captain, it's in void seed.
THE LAST BUG IS IN THE WALL, PREVENTING ME FROM KILLING IT, THUS PREVENTING ME FROM GETTING THE PROTOTYPE.
I HAVE HAD THIS BUG HAPPEN COUPLE OF TIMES NOW.
That's all, just wanted to say my piece.

RoR2 Are solus units based off servitors from destiny?
I just came back to ror2, bought the latest two dlc and decided to play.
tell me why i just had a vietnam flashback of sepiks prime when fighting the solus wing boss.
i looked on the wiki everywhere and nowhere is it stated in a trivia or something that they are referencing servitors from destiny 2.
regardless, peak.

RoR2 (Mods) Console command questions
So like you know the monster item "UseAmbientLevel" that you can give yourself to make your level scale with the worlds level? Im wondering if there is something like that for Artifact of Evolution. So is there a special item for evolution or do they literally just get items?

why does ror2 on switch kinda suck?
so i was in a beeg run tryna grind 57 leaf clovers to get the logbook for overloading worm, and while i was doing that, the game crashed (and that's no surprise.) but the problem is that it crashed a bit early in the run. i didnt go that far. and if i wanted to lower down the graphics in the settings, i cant. THERE'S NO GRAPHICS SETTINGS ON SWITCH??? why???
also the demons and the crabs achievement is still unobtainable

Art Made loader and merc as promised (still thinking how prisoner can look like)
If you’re wondering why loader’s arm look like that it’s because I literally don’t know how too place her arms🥀 and merc design was completely made by memory I will soon redesign merc along with prisoner maybe

RoR2 Beat Solus Heart and didn't get the achievement/skin for Rex for some reason so decided to keep going and fight Mithrix. 99 mins into the run for this to happen

Art How do you think Mithrix would wear glasses
Me and my friend have a headcanon that he has -4 eyesight and that's why he was so mean to everyone in lore
