Agreed this is good game, since it came out ive played 20 hours? The dlc is really polished and just plain fun. As you get further things become more and more random and harder.

Advice btw, always always start with a 9mm and 150 ammo it will save you so much its not funny.

I could never bring myself to not bring them, personally. I'm bad at self-imposed challenges because I'm too much of a dickhead who plays games to win them.

Like, I'd say for an "entertainment" challenge, I'd say it'd be okay to bring them, except you could only use one per corruption stage, so you don't end up completely halting the counter, except for stage 5 where it's okay to use it to stave off a crash. Because completing the five escape in one run objective completely without using the Delay Loops would be just painful.

Im pretty sure the loot is randomized, you dont need to worry about leaving any behind for the next rub.

I have to ask, why do you intentionally gimp yourself so much? You've had plenty of opportunities to abuse/use things like the infinite free turret power but you've been preferring to take a tentacle to the face instead.

I can't speak for the moonshark but I have to assume that the mimic portal escape for the Volunteer requires you to go through that area with multiple characters. You visit as the mechanic to repair it, presumably another character will be able to hack. Finally the volunteer can use the portal.

the most damage I've been able to do against the moon shark is with the charged up psyblade and with various typhon powers. Used with the propulsion system while timing things to avoid the rock blasts and the like. Definitely much easier to do with certain characters. There's also a side mission later on that can help

Now, I'm just thinking out loud here, but you found someone's tracking bracelet and some organic material inside that harvester you scrapped. And when you picked up the tracking bracelet, it said "personnel located". HMMMM.

I imagine the initial objective required you to go out into the moon surface where there's probably tons of typhon/phantoms to retrieve the modules, but coming prepared kinda neutered that requirement. Kinda like running into extra moon sharks while getting the antidote as Vijay. Also the two modules that popped out on the floor are probably the ones you inserted, the audio log said firing the towers breaks the modules.

I think you killed a mimic. Which failed the mission, as you're supposed to be friendly to them, as security is hostile to you.

IMO the corruption timer mechanic sucks: it's too annoying for a exploration-based FPS yet it's also trivially easy to counter it. Doesn't add anything meaningful to the gameplay at all.

Also, corruption level 1-3 is too easy even with just a few Neuromods. I rather this DLC do away the timer altogether and scale the strength of the enemies to the # of Neuromods acquired and make them respawn a ton more often. More bonus challenge achievement like doing 5-man escape without using the mule bot or spending sim points to increase replay ability would also be very welcome.
