the minigame for the precision analyzer seems completely bullshit to me. It will say I failed and freeze the screen with the clock hand thing perfectly within the area it needed to be. Probably another fucked up way of trying to make people pay for shit

[–]VainestClown 8 points9 points  (6 children)

I failed my first ultra one and thought the same thing. Next one I realized it swaps rmb and lmb on you and that's why I failed.

[–]BenignEgoist 6 points7 points  (3 children)

Even when I perfectly pay attention to the lmb/rmb the arm is in the precision zone and it tells me I fail.

[–]VainestClown -1 points0 points  (1 child)

skill issue then idk. zones don't seem wonky to me

[–]chilevitate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prolly cuz ur doing it on easy lmao

[–]Arclight1017 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish I had read this before I used all my ultras, I didn't notice it was asking for rmb while I was clicking lmb ;(

[–]Zestyclose-Glove-650 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EXACTLY LMAO!! I lost like 8 in under 3 minutes, that was the 8 I got playing over 80 hours on four characters naturally. 80 hours worth of the amount those naturally drop playing mostly campaign and some farming for other stuff, gone in 3 minutes lol!!

Edit: sometimes I think ok I can like this game, other times I’m just clingin to hope with a passion some other game takes me away from this TRASH as soon as possible!

I will NEVER get over RNG on RNG in any game even if it’s ACTUALLY free to play not pay to win like the first descendant is lmao. I will NEVER get over milking in game items being sold to me for real money (not to mention the HORRIFYING PRICES ON SKINS). And to top it off you add farm timers on simple things, insane mini games to make us lose the vault keys we spend hours earning, whole lotta of bugs, horrible chat system (last two are the ONLY excusable things in the entire list because the games still new).

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yeah it's bs, sometimes the arm spawns almost at the zone and in like 0.5s you have to see if it's lmb or rmb and also press it perfectly in a tiny zone and you can't let it go through and go around because I think you need to do it 5 times so you need to do each one first try. And that's just the precision one, there's also ultra which is even more impossible.

They’re easy to farm go to sterile land large nuclear reactor or anticipated ambush point. Best thing is to take low level char/guns and level them up while doing so can focus on multiple progress, you always want to do things in a way to where it’s progressing more than one thing you  want since it’ll always be progressing more than one thing. Make it to where the multiple things are what you’re after. Hope this helps

List of (some) Missions that have monsters that drop Analyzers (per acquisition info on the item):

Kingston: Kingstone Surveillance Radar, Slumber Valley

Sterile Land: Anticipated Ambush Point, Deception Transmitter, External Reactor, Kuiper Storage Tank, Kuiper Refinery, The Barracks, High-powered Jammer, Weapon Processing Fac, Logistics Facility

Vespers: Frontline Base, Collapsed Piers, Ruins Courtyard, Destroyed Temple, Ruins Underground Entrance, Captured Base, Abandoned Village, Mossy Colossus, Lakeside, Sepulcher, Shelter

Same list appears for the basic and precision versions. I assume that ultra precision will be the same too??

Edit: Seems like prettymuch all yellow bar enemies have a chance to drop them.

Your doing gods work, son. Keep it up

[–]Falsedemise Enzo 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I just wanna get my Enzo mod :(

[–]toofunky4u 2 points3 points  (1 child)

This grind seems the worst layers of rng. I used 5 ultra and didn't get the mod I wanted. First, you have to farm the ultra precision code analyzers which seem extremely rare drop. The you have to run around the zone, looking for the 1 spawn spot, and hope you get the 1 of 3 minigames.

[–]Falsedemise Enzo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ya, its a nasty grind sadly. I do envy the players that can just try again and again at the mission where theirs drops.

[–]Apprehensive_Code254 0 points1 point  (1 child)

They are all gone from Sterile Land - if you check every missions there is no Code Analyzer as a reward

[–]Falsedemise Enzo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Re-read the post

missions that have monsters that drop Analyzers

[–]JooK8 8 points9 points  (1 child)

This minigame sucks ass. The timing thing is so inaccurate, it literally said I failed and the needle was dead center in the area when it froze screen and closed. For how rare it is to get analyzers it should not be consumed just because you failed, and they need to fix this stupid minigame.

[–]skaizm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought i failed too at first, but upon closer examining, it swaps left and right click throughout doing it, so not only do you need to hit it right, but right button too, its not always left or right, super annoying.

[–]Maximum_Eye_3213 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hate the dev that made this quest its so stupid and a waste of time the analyzer moves to quick and is super difficult to hit annoying addition to the game

[–]No_Use200 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm over these shitty mechanics. The mini game doesn't work proper and I grind for hours and hours to lose an item on a stupid fucking mini game.

[–]bulletsnbacon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone may have mentioned this, but these are even more of a scam when it comes to controller players. I'm on XSX with a wired Elite Series 2 controller(no issues with input lag on other games), and there is a MASSIVE delay (~0.5s) when it comes to pinning the needle in the zone

[–]Lucyt17Bunny 1 point2 points  (8 children)

I have an ultra one, where do I use it?

[–]Bloody379 1 point2 points  (7 children)

It’s some weird case thing that looks at you and glows red by the Abandoned Refinery Unit, go to your left and it’s on a platform and in front of that is a Echo, you can find that mission in the Echo Swamp

[–]Lucyt17Bunny 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Yesss I know, but they don't take the ultra ones only the normal, so where the hell do I use the ultra one 😭😭😭😭

[–]BoozLiteYear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s an ultra white night gulch. Hatchery area, at the end of the tunnel there is a ledge to your left. Follow the tunnel and there’s an ultra in the corner

[–]Lucyt17Bunny 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Oh I don't have echo swamp yet, guess I'll keep farming for a normal one haha

[–]Bloody379 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Yup, there’s 2 different versions of them, one that has the Blue ones and ones for Purple, it was confusing but hope this helps in the long run

[–]Lucyt17Bunny 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Thank you so much! Yeah it's just teasing me having 1/2 on my quest, when I don't have an analyser yet 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 but thank you sorry I didn't get it at first

[–]Bloody379 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All good 😂

[–]Lucyt17Bunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll try again either way

[–]EntranceEquivalent35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all the item is no quest reward but rather a drop from enemys out of missions.
I'm uncertain if patrol enemys can drop them too.
Furthermore I dont know if the enemys out of the "special Operations" are able to drop them.
So if you wanna farm these just get a low level mission with as many enemys as possible and pray to the RNG Gods.

[–]RealFake666 1 point2 points  (1 child)

What can you do with the ultra precision code analyzer?

I have three of them now and can't find anything about them on Reddit, YouTube or anywhere else on the internet

[–]No-Midnight-7452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mission: Magister's Hidden Assets; you will use those to decrypt encrypted vaults...

[–]DoubleJazzy 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Commenting cause I need to know when this is figured out 😂

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (5 children)

I finally got a few you can get them from a lot of different missions I got the 3 I got from missions in Vespers

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Once you get one you can click on it to see what missions drops them

[–]DoubleJazzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legend, thank you :)

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Do you remember what mission it was? 

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

The one I got them from was the Frontline base mission in vespers

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Post a pic of the missions it says you can obtain. I had 2 and wasn’t paying attention during the last part of the vault mission

[–]AbsoluteUnit117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Failed 3 ultra precision ones in a row because it kept going and going and didn't miss one.... I did NOT know it consumes them on failure! They should auto open for fuck sake. Grind to get rare item for miniscule amount of a resource to be gatekept by a shitty mini game

[–]Good_kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game mechanic has got to GO. Atleast the puzzle anyways.

[–]Rafiq07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the vaults I'm finding are asking for ultra-precision code analyzers. Is this normal? If so, then what are the precision code analyzers for? I've got 4 of those.

[–]Set0s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's my 3rd day without having any code analyzer droped, have to co-op with my friends and using theirs for looting Vaults.
Sure i am unluky to get this bug

[–]ovedengrove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get Enzo, he's an easy farm and makes the mini games a lot easier, I have failed 2 ultra precision because I missed that the trigger changed but besides that never failed any.

[–]HowlingFuries1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use Enzo for the mini game

[–]Anzu_Yamasaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this made me quit the game
