Walking over the vines gives the least. They have to be shot.

It minces everything so maybe multiple hits on a root yield more. I tried the pistol but it was pretty useless.Yes use dreadbound. Makes farming obolites super easy. Walking over the vines gives the least. They have to be shot.
Glad to see you're finally coming around. I remember when you first started, it just didn't hook you in. The game is truly one of a kind.Put in a strong session last night. About 3h. Had the time of my life.
Was blessed by Dreadbound for the first time. Impressive. My first-love Hollowseeker has however now given way to Thermogenic. I was running with this *29 Thermo + Doombringer that was…guys, F wrecking. I refused to pick anything else up after I’d found this combo. For all intents and purposes, I was Rambo the astronaut.
Still in biome 5 but making progress. Game is a masterpiece.
Thanks for all the advice from everyone. I’ve put virtually all of it to use.
Good memory and it really didn’t. Boy, was I wrong. Some games just need a revisit.Glad to see you're finally coming around. I remember when you first started, it just didn't hook you in. The game is truly one of a kind.
How did you like the Boss of Biome 4?Good memory and it really didn’t. Boy, was I wrong. Some games just need a revisit.
I'm not very good with the dreadbound. It's good at short range but kinda useless otherwise whereas hollowseeker is probably the easiest to use from any distance. Not really a fan of thermogenic or any weapon where you can't just hold the trigger. Makes it harder to dodge.Put in a strong session last night. About 3h. Had the time of my life.

Biome 5 is rough. Frost severed are a real pain until you get used to their teleporting. And those turrets. I hate those things.
Yeah missing your target essentially means you're fucked for a while until the ammo returns. I'll have to work on that 1-2 rhythm and look for 4th arrow. Fun weapon so I'd like to use it more if I can figure it out.The trick with dreadbound is to tap lightly in a slower rhythm between waves of shots. It’s a 1,2… 1,2... the wait between the shots depend on how far your targets are and whether you’re hitting them. Basically you’re keeping one arrow chambered for emergency. It’s better if u get the perk that gives a 4th arrow then u can fire 1,2,3…. 1,2,3… So you fire in that rhythm for distant foes and as they get closer, you can just hold the fire button down cause you’re not missing as much and it’s continuous rebounding fast attacks.
I feel about Coilspine Shredder the same way you feel about Dreadbound. I can hardly get much done with it and feel largely useless. I have the Twin Blades unlocked for it if that's supposed to improve matters but, I don't know; it's just not my weapon. H/seeker still jams especially with Portal Beam II but I do prefer Thermo now, then Dreadbound. After I beat the game, I'd be interested in sharing my thoughts on weapons A-Z. I'm still stuck in biome 5, though. Lol. Those kamikaze starfish are terrors and F me up.Yeah missing your target essentially means you're fucked for a while until the ammo returns.

Uh, you mean the coolest boss showdown I've experienced in years?! It was amazing, brother. Commented here on it.How did you like the Boss of Biome 4?
I don't like the coilspine shredder either. Too slow.I feel about Coilspine Shredder the same way you feel about Dreadbound. I can hardly get much done with it and feel largely useless.

That’s one of the fights I thought you’d really appreciate once you got there. The music, the arena, the chaos. All phenomenal and could have been the crescendo of the game if it wanted to be.Uh, you mean the coolest boss showdown I've experienced in years?! It was amazing, brother. Commented here on it.
I always thought this was one of the better Returnal videos. Def worth a watch once you’ve finished.
