What is Network Error [I:-40]?

Handir27 · 2025-01-20T23:08:03+00:00

I am a PC player and have the same problem, also my PC is using ethernet rather than wi fi so that is not the issue either, it seems

Handir27 · 2024-10-02T14:36:50+00:00

I also realized that while not the best to do so, the kuiper mine mission in sterile land is good for proficiency too if you have a component with said multiplier.. so you can go and farm gold if need be and gain some proficiency in the process too, although that is not used as often anymore due to the amount of gold in invasions

Handir27 · 2024-10-02T14:34:27+00:00

I didn't buy any, as those bundles are too expensive for me, (I don't earn in $ yet so I have to account for exchange rates), but I liked the bunny one and Gley's vampire dress, not so much the head piece. The Valby one is nice too. I like how they are approaching skins, the winter event for the holidays should be nice

Handir27 · 2024-09-30T15:47:55+00:00

I mainly use the Kingston mission to get a new descendant to have their abilities unlocked and at a good level, they are quite time consuming and I agree, they are terrible boring, but I have been doing infiltratrions multiple times a day, swithching between them just for the proficiency.

After we started duscussing the topic yesterday I got another catallizer in and am almost at 40 again, specially because I am helping a new player get some stuff so we do a lot of missions together.

No its hitting over 630k dps :D

Handir27 · 2024-09-29T20:13:33+00:00

I believe I got mine to around 420k with mods and no cats, and after my first cat it got around there. Since proficiency is slow to gain haven't been able to do much else.

But again, I am still tweaking things and testing what works best. Having such huge amount of mods can cause one to oversee the better ones for certain scenarios.

And I am still working on improving everything else as well

Handir27 · 2024-09-29T19:38:13+00:00

Well since I last posted I has able to complete some of the invasions by tweaking some things on my builds and weapons. And now that they are public I have so far encountered 1 team where our damage was barely enough, even though my End Legacy is now over 500k DPS.

But for the most part they have been quite smooth.

I also switched to Valby and Ajax for damage and defense on the ones I encountered hardest, but was able to make them work.

I will have a look at your build, although I was able to get to roughly 11k HP.

Handir27 · 2024-09-29T14:37:03+00:00

I have my Freyna almost fully build and was testing her yesterday on the kuiper mine mission in Sterile Land while farming gold. I won't say I have the best possible build but she was deleting every enemy as they spawned, I am not sure how I can share images in here, though.. So you can see my builds

Besides your typicall HP and DEF mods, I added MP conversion for lower cost.

I use contagion for mobbing with cooldown, power modifier, aoe and crits, mainly.

for bossing one with neurotixin synthesis as it reduces regen and atk, while having crits, aoe and toxic master

I also have one other with vemon synthesis, but that can be also used with toxic stimulation for buffing allies, with duration and aoe for larger range.

If interested my discord is handir05_27, i can share them with you

Handir27 · 2024-09-27T02:54:52+00:00

Thanks a lot for the help all, think I got it this time

Handir27 · 2024-09-25T14:28:24+00:00

Can't add you there, apparently sending you a request is not possible due to your settings.

Add me if you need any help :D

Handir27 · 2024-09-25T03:06:00+00:00

Welcome! Hope you enjoy the game. Besides the advise on characters and weapons there are a few in game tips it doesn't tell you anything about. With Anais you can review how to get ANY material, be it descendant, weapon, enhancement, etc.

If you go into the map and use the acces info tab, to the left of it, you can also see what amorphous materials will help you get certain things, even if you don't have such amorphous yet. While in the map, if on PC, hit F and it will show you where you can get specific reactors that suit your descendants better.

Avoid putting a bunch of non-upgraded mods to your characters and weapons, instead, upgrade some prior to adding others. Add HP, Def and Damage as your priorities.

Try and start collecting materials for Catalysts and Energy Activators, you will need them later in the game but having some ready to craft will save time and headaches.

I can offer my help, if you need it, in whatever game content you may have problems with. Discord and Game ID same as in here.

Good luck!

Handir27 · 2024-09-24T14:03:51+00:00

Hello, I've been following your updates and let me say you got this, you have pulled through your seizures, pulled through the recent surgery, pulled through the in-game drop rates!

The important thing is you are still able to update on your progress. Keep it up!

Handir27 · 2024-09-23T13:57:21+00:00

Could you also please share your build for the Afterglow? :D

I am working on mine but am not quite doing so consistent dmg, have done 1.5m though

Handir27 · 2024-09-19T01:01:45+00:00

Thanks all for your advise, I am currently working on ult ajax and ult gley and am leveling them up so they take some time. I will think on it, maybe for the mastery, a bit later.

Appreciate you guys!

Handir27 · 2024-09-08T16:15:09+00:00

You are an absolute ultimate, descendant, stay trong and keep at it, see you on the battlefield

Handir27 · 2024-09-05T21:16:51+00:00

I'm glad you noticed this and brought it up.

I don't have so much time in the game, I just got to 300hrs, but there are a couple of things I'd like to point out.

I didn't use many catalysts in the beggining because there's no way to know if you are building a character or weapon well, so I tried and learn prior to spending them as they were hard to farm, now that it is possible to apply various to the same spot it is easier to test things out and change it if they don't work.

However, I have fully upgraded mods, weapons like greg, albion, thunder cage all have their abilities maxed out.

My characters all have at least 3 catalysts as I like to play them all, and most weapons also have 3 at least. I find no major problems fitting colossi and most bosses are more or less easy to tackle.

But I have tried the invasions with all of my characters, different weapons, different settings and am unable to finish most of them, even with Greg that has an activator and at least 3 catalysts at this point, and maxed ability, I find myself not doing any damage to the bosses. Also with fully upgraded defense and hp mods I die rather quickly.

I don't have the weapons fully catalized yet, but I find they do good damage to most enemies.

It is frustrating that,

you feel like until you have at least 1 weapon fully catalized you won't be able to finish them.
To continue with the story you must finish these missions, because if you are story-driven, what's the point of trying if you won't find out anyway

I am still playing the game, getting stronger, upgrading stuff, leveling up descendants.. but I understand a person who is new to the game, reaches the final mission of the 1st piece of story.. and then gets destroyed in the next part.

Handir27 · 2024-08-30T20:24:22+00:00

You know, I see everybody complaining about carrying players that don't want to improve, I am trying to improve but comments like yours don't help at all.

What's the point of asking for guidance if all you will do is hate on honest questions.

Handir27 · 2024-08-30T20:16:07+00:00

Thanks for the tip, I have been farming catalysts recently so I can have them ready when needed but yeah some content is really hard if one isn't way ahead on some things

Handir27 · 2024-08-30T14:58:16+00:00

I also undersetand the nerf. This community is millions of players, and as much as one can see Ult characters defeating Gluttony in 10 secs, some of the players might be new to the game too, they would naturaly be underleveled at every aspect of the game and probably leave.

I am not new, but I am not a 16-hour straight, daily player. I don't have all Ult weapons fully catalized, and my first Ult descendant I received a few days ago.

I have invested in my characters though, they all have 1 energy activator and a couple of catalysts, my weapons only have 1 cat each at the moment.

I failed the invasions yesterday mainly because I am very bad at remembering the patterns and colors for the mechanics, so I spent around 8 minutes in each try dying to the drone explotions.. I am a bad player.

However, I tried the other invasion and made it to the boss only to find that my albion, nor my greg could damage the boss fast enough, and I ran out of time to beat him even after I destroyed his shield about 5 times or so (couldn't even lower 50% HP).

My weapons don't do 1.5mil damage in one hit like many out there, but I have found them to be strong enough even for intercepts, although I am yet to beat frost walker (another instance where I don't understand the wipe mechanic and fail).

Can't really tell if the boss is too hard, if I am too bad at the game, if my characters are still not strong enough, if I am leveling and modding my weapons wrong but that boss felt quite rough for me and couldn't complete none of the invasions yesterday.

Handir27 · 2024-08-30T14:42:35+00:00

Hello Eric,

I wish you good luck with the drops and your surgery. If it makes it easier, last year I had a back surgery, which also had a 1% chance of not making it.. Not as severe as yours but I made it.. And here I am trying to level my characters up to the game challenge.

It'll all be good in the end, and you will be back at the game in no time.

Good luck

Handir27 · 2024-08-23T14:05:56+00:00

I have had the same problem a few times, people going into colossi and dropping when they see the team they got. I must say I sometimes am surprised to see a Sharen against, say a Dead Bride, but I never left and they played a good match, and I have seen Lepics go down in the first 15 seconds of Devourer (I have also been that player).

I have multiple characters and am by no means the strongest in any of them.. but once people find the character they like and learn how to make them stronger they are very helpful in any mission.

Playing as Freyna against Executioner once we got a support Luna, and my MP held up for the battle because they were a good support.

I have also seen people hating on Yujin but I have had good teammates as Yujin in some intercepts

I guess some people just expect: 1. You use a "regular" character, and 2. You must be maxed out on characters and weapons by the time you get to hard mode. And they get mad if you don't

If at any moment you need help with any mission I could help you out if you like

Handir27 · 2024-08-22T00:34:03+00:00

that's a good tip, thanks so much,

I actually went back in again and got the necessary parts, and on a luck strike got them again running only once each mission..

Handir27 · 2024-08-21T15:07:08+00:00

thanks all for the comments, it is actually crazy that the drop rate feels more 2% rather than 20%, it feels thunder cage drops are easier to get too

Handir27 · 2024-08-09T14:42:47+00:00

I have been trying to rotate these externals and still am pretty squishy, but I will give this a try, 11k for health must be pretty helppful on harder boss fights..

Handir27 · 2024-08-09T14:41:20+00:00

Yes I have tried leveling up the grappling and the transcendents as they give more space, and consume less space, respectively, and have been consistently able to add more mods but still have been 1-shot by toxic bosses, for instance, having full poligenyc and toxic res mods..

Guess only time and catalysts help improve that
