I decided to do a run of Synthetik, using my favorite class (and the one I'm the best at), the
Raider. The first few rooms were pretty standard for Synthetik; in about the third or fourth one, I find a shop selling the
Nemesis Prototype - a
legendary sniper rifle, and an overpowered one at that. (fun fact: it was originally meant to be the only weapon in Synthetik, but eventually other weapons were added) The first boss was easy; I just had to hack a terminal while defending myself from progressively stronger enemies, which ended with a tank (which died with a fair amount of shots from my
Nemesis), and by the fifth or sixth room, my
Nemesis Prototype was fully upgraded, with all 4 attachment slots filled. The second boss was easy; it was a large plane which focused on spamming projectiles. Fortunately, after using my
air com +
plasma grenade, followed by a few shots from my Nemesis, it went down easily. Room ~9 was the first room in the third floor; the
Virtual Reality Chambers; which was hell, for one main reason, and also the reason that I died; THE FUCKING MORTAR TURRETS ON THIS FLOOR ARE PRETTY MUCH UNAVOIDABLE. The Chrono Troopers, Crystal Chargers, 12.7mm turrets (which are sniper turrets on every other floor, but on this floor, they're green chain lightning crystals on top of black pillars), etc were reasonable, but I don't know what the fuck was going through the dev team's mind when they designed the mortar turrets for the
VR chambers.
