How To Get Started on Hard Mode in The First Descendant 

Not really im using bunny and haven’t used my gun once lmfao i build my bunny to a ultimate runner its crazy i never run out of mp

most of the time you get duplicates.

@@sinu9226 definitely, but still a chance is a chance

Is there a filter to only select common mods for dismantling? It's a huuuge pain doing it by hand. Also, I've gotten 2 transcendent mods from combining yellow ones so....that makes me want to do that forever

@@abigwreck I'm not 100% on this but I think you can filter based on rarity with the modules guy at Albion. Then you should be able to mass select dupes. Recommend you select all dupes first. Make a mental note of how many mods it selects. Then use the filter and see if it's less. Might save you from some unfortunate deletions.

@@F10n0 filtering based on rarity doesn't change the fact that it still selects the dupe mods from all rarities. So, that's where the pain is. Manually deselecting all the selected rare and ult mods.

nah frl other dudes complicate it

Is Hard mode even worth doing for the measly 6% drop rate?

@@digivagrant Yes, because as I've said, even if you don't get the 6% you can get something else. For example crystalized catalyst. You need that to be able to fit more mod space into your gun. While farming for my ultimate Gley skin, (took me 2 days) I got four catas. Mind you I don't even no life this game. But I really wanted her so I grinded her for two days and got so many materials for other stuff in the process. dismantle useless guns for materials, and reactors as well. So from someone who isn't even a hardcore player, yeah its worth it. I've been having fun.

@@lelouche25how many hours a day did you spend farming gley I’ve been working on her for 4 days and don’t have shit 😂

@@khangsingchopel6443 lol honestly just got lucky on some rolls

Yeah you can just buy everything with real money why research?

The rainbow donut is definitely easier to get. The energy activators have to be used carefully. I've played a lot and only have 3, used 2 for a total of 5. Not using them until I play all the descendants(-ult) and decide what I like.

I only used one activator on bunny or farming purposes, and plan to only ever use them when I have another one available/being crafted. it gives me enough time to consider the pros and cons of what or who I use them on

Tamar sucks compared to the thunder cage. Don't waste your time. The cage has those 4 additional expansions that create the impact explosion that takes out neighboring enemies. Its pretty much the only weapon everyone uses in this game. Bad design to have one weapon be so good and the other suck so bad.

Enzo is easy to farm

No

Except for reactors and components nothing becomes obsolete, so you should upgrade to your heart's content! Also, don't worry about "wasting" materials; they are plentiful (unless you focus too much on game modes that offer very limited rewards).

Level up the melee module all the way and attach it. It will let you attach more modules depending on the level and rarity of melee module

there is a preset option in the menu, you can save a preset for a certain char so when you swap they have the correct equipment for them on them.

Focus on using and upgrading one Ultimate weapon. Don't store blue and purple weapons. Max their proficiency, then get rid of them. Don't store reactors and/or components you feel are just adequate. You are going to be looting thousands of reactors (literally!), so be very, very choosy about what you keep. I don't even look at them anymore unless they have double gold stats.

There's currently no way to search in-game for normal weapon drops. You'll have to google what mission drops them, it's always a 50% chance, so prepare to do that mission 10 times to get it.

You don't it caps at 100 the rest is done by selecting and upgrading modules needed in function to the situation.

It is indeed, But the level 100 gun with basic module upgrades is enough to kill a level 100 monster, to kill a level 108 you need to pump more upgrades in. the 108 is just to let you know that the boss is harder again and you need some beefier upgrades to take it on. although it does not say it, just imagine that everytime you upgrade the damage of your gun by a good amount you are actually using a much higher level gun.... it will take some testing to find out when its strong enough to take down the harder bosses.

Its just e measurement to show you how difficult this boss is gonna be compared to your normal Lvl 100 Enemys

@Markus9040 gotcha thanks. It's a fun game. I do hope they add some new content soon. Until then I'll be grindin

@CarLucci24 np Yeah i think they will add a lot in the future. The game is going well for them and i think you probably won't farm everything till next content update:D

Descendants - level 40 Guns - level 100 When you fully deck out your gun with mods, you'll be taking on the highest level collosi on hard with ease. Basically makes your guns do level 150+ damage even though they cap at 100

Kuiper is used for upgrading modules... Hard mode drops more Kuiper. the rarity of the module and how much it can be upgraded will effect how much kuiper you need

No

Well thats not really true as they arent significantly better than the normal versions. Not enough to make a huge impact

Nope

@@Grimmfairytail unfortunate.... Had fun though. Guess I'll just wait for more content as I didn't wanna grind same missions for a 4 percent drop chance on a mod or component. Had a blast in campaign though.

@@Fintastrophe21 welcome to Korean mmo’s, hard mode is when the real game begins. The story was absolute trash btw 😂

Your fingers hurt

if you combine 4 gold mods there is a chance to get a red. only other downside is if you needed a mod for a specific build. one char may use a mod at level 10... another may only use that same mod at level 5... but that would be fairly far into the game. so early on i would just dismantle everything.

Since you can look up where any drop and go get them (hopefully without too much struggle), no downside. And you don't have to worry about what counts as a duplicate. Only the ones which haven't been upgraded at all qualify (as far as I know.) So you take, say HP, bump one to 7, one to 5, and have 3 of the unleveled ones, it will only dismantle 2 of the unleveled ones.

You can use the higher lv ones to combine 4 into a random item of that rarity

@@Grimmfairytail They are randomish. Someone did a video about it. There are certain keywords it will pick from, so it’s not 100% random it seems. It will be random, but from a category with those keywords.

Facts

I sure hope not, i find the grind really cathartic actually. I'll gladly run the same thing for a couple hours straight to get the one small component I'm after in a game like this.

It's players like you who will kill the game, not them

@@iiTzSunrise shut up npc

@@crisis514 calling someone a npc is npc behavior NGL

Because shield you gotta Regen as there isn't any shield drops from killing things. Hp you get back from killing, so when you have a higher amount of Hp then your getting more back from each drop to stay alive easier.

​@@roberthill6738 u forgot to mention that the shield stat doesn't apply the efects of damage defense.

@@Youel-rompeUPI didn't even think about that tbh. I just know I use all health boosts and no shield boosts because that way I get more out of the healing drops because shields only Regen by not taking damage.
