There’s often a section in the build guide for hardcore. For example, I’m following the shadow minion necro guide and it has a section for hardcore adjustments. There’s also a link in that section for a general hardcore guide.

Also, good luck! I think I would be on about my 15th character by now if I’d gone hardcore.

I’m so torn about this. On one hand I want to read all about it because I’m so excited for it but, I also want to wait until full release and play it blind…. And get my ass handed to me.

I think I’m gonna try and avoid all news about it.

Honestly, the game might not be for you. I had a similar experience with it. I kept thinking it would change up a gear at some point but it never does.

Floating around in that ship and reading bits of text is basically all you do.

I’ll probably start with wizard, the haedrigs gift set is firebirds which is super powerful. Once I’m up and running with that I’ll start a witch doctor so I can try out the crazy chicken build… I’m looking forward to that!

Ppl think 2 is the worst? Huh, I wasn’t aware of that.

Thing is, I don’t really remember much about 3. I played the first one through twice and the second one I played through 3 times and all the dlc. By the time I got around to the third game I think I’d just kinda had enough of tomb raider and rushed through it and never replayed it.

I think I might actually go back and play the third instalment again now that it’s been a while since I last played it.

For me it’s always ‘bus-in-ess’

I played the trilogy a couple of years ago. I’m a big fan of the original games and was mostly happy with the reboot.

For me the second instalment was the best of the reboot (rise of the tomb raider). The stealth is improved making it actually viable to clear whole areas using just stealth. I also loved the environments of the second one.

Overall I really enjoyed the 3 games but the balance between combat and puzzle solving was too far towards combat to make them feel truly like tomb raider games. The puzzle solving should have been a bit harder as well to truly make them feel like tomb raider games.

Damn it, I just bought hellblade!

There’s some great quotes in this article, my favourite was:

‘George Butlin, director at the UK Loose Leaf Tea Company, echoes that sentiment and professes a “profound aversion to this kind of innovation”.’

I can just imagine him saying ‘profound aversion’ whilst holding a China tea cup with his pinky sticking out.

I’ve got a better idea, let’s just ban human beings!

There’s one posted in the expedition thread. https://lemm.ee/comment/3140749

The bug is fixed in the latest patch!

‘Fixed an issue that prevented barrel rolling during warp’

Oh thank god! I was genuinely missing that.

Also, salvaging atlantid multi tools now gives void motes… nice.

I got impatient and just did the whole expedition again making sure to make a beeline for the creature transcendant posted.

It’s not in the analysis visor info. You can only see these values if it’s a record, then it gets recorded to the wonders section in the pause menu.

Also, if you select the milestone as your current mission it will show you your current record in the bottom right of the HUD.

The pirates always follow you, so just fly a bit further away from the freighter and they’ll follow and won’t be able to duck in and out the freighter shields.

After doing some searching around it seems that unfortunately the ph level milestone is bugged.

The milestone and wonders page is actually tracking the highest ph instead of the lowest ph. I can confirm this with my own experience, my lowest ph was 3.6, I scanned another animal and got a message saying new record low but the ph level went UP to 4.2. I then scanned another animal and got the message again saying new record low and the ph level went up again to 4.3.

The only way to get this milestone done at the moment is to make sure that the very first animal you scan on a toxic planet has a ph below 2.5, otherwise you’re screwed. Hopefully they’ll patch this at some point.

I’ve seen ppl encountering this bug on xbox, PlayStation and PC, don’t know about switch but I would assume they have the bug too. Apparently if you’re on PC you can use a save editor to reset the wonder and then go to a planet where you know there is an animal with a ph below 2.5 and scan it first. Not tried that myself as I’m on Xbox.

Oh you absolute legend!

I started playing at 12pm today and finally gave up at 6pm. 6 hours! I must have visited more than 50 systems without finding a suitable planet.

No. That and finding a hostile planet are the only 2 things I have left to do. I’ve visited dozens and dozens of systems.

Let me know if you find either of those.

Thank you for that information.
