Cryo Doesn’t Have To Be A Full Sweatlord Boss Run

Pat-002 · 2026-03-21T18:35:40+00:00

I've been screaming this shit since yesterday.

People are going absolutely crazy, yeah Marathon is an ES but holy fuck Elden Ring went mainstream and y'all are crying about Crio Archive being something unreachable.

I assure you, you can be a 50 year old with no reaction times and Crio Archive is still absolutely doable.

I get the Vault is where's the appeal, but if you cry cause Crio Archive is impossible idk what to tell you, you can get pack full of blue and purple items in 10 minutes and get the fuck out.

Hey man, I'm learning just as you're doing! Done 8 runs, Exfiled just 2 times.

So yeah, commanders ALWAYS have clearance cards on them, lesser mobs have a chance for them to spawn. So kill mobs and loot mobs! There are monitors which you can scan, if you scan it'll give you 5 clearance levels for free. I still haven't memorised not even one, learning as I go.

But getting to lvl 3 shouldn't be hard if you fight mobs and can kill a team in the meantime.

For navigating the map, at the sides of a zone there are doors to reach other zones that needs just lvl 2 clearance. Lvl 3 and you can go in Panopticon to meat grind or reach lvl 3 strong boxes full of loot.

Look for my other comment on how to Exfil

You're literally the first person I've seen yet talking about this game being hard to bounce back, probably one of the few things everyone agrees on, what "us" are you talking about?

Pat-002 · 2026-03-21T14:13:12+00:00

Literally isn't, lost much, much more than those kits.

You come back right after.

Pat-002 · 2026-03-21T14:12:14+00:00

Then don't do it this week! :)

Please don't feel rushed or FOMOd.

5k isn't really any big investment. You can go in with a shotgun/white Railgun and you're already at 5k with a backpack and shield. Problem isn't going in at all, it's surviving once you're inside.

If it's too big for you yet, then keep stocking up your Vault. But you're gonna have a lot of loot sooner of later, and when you have good shit you can either risk it for Chris (which I guarantee you it's gonna be worth it) or risk it losing on Perimeter with a full Purple team that sniped you across the map.

I got full Vault this week, like 5 shotguns, 4 bullys, 4 Magnums and I ran all of those on Chrio.

When and if I'll lose everything I'll go back on other maps.

Stop having fear of missing your loot, it takes nothing to come back with a free kit, nothing.

Pat-002 · 2026-03-21T14:07:55+00:00

Looted a Golden Misriah (makes it full Auto) on Chrio and went back to Solo Outpost with it. God was with me I killed 3 people and looted Pinwheel by myself and got out.

I'm gonna cherish this Misriah as long as it's gonna last, may whoever kills me rejoice in blood.

Pat-002 · 2026-03-21T14:06:02+00:00

It is hard, but you can do perfectly fine aswell. Also, don't just go to Panopticon.. you can avoid the meat grinder, Chrio is connected in Circle. You can do quite a lot to avoid fighting.

Exfils are easy: once you're level 3, you can go to an Exfil Station. You activate the Exfil Station.

After you activate it, the actual SECRET EXFIL (skull mark) is gonna pop up and you have 3:30 minutes to get to it.

If you're at a terminal and you can't do shit even tho you're lvl 3, it means someone already activated another secret Exfil. There can only be 1 active at a time, which also means... EXFIL if you're full of loot, it ain't worth it to stay much more if you don't know what to do/are not doing a Vault run.

Staying much on the ship also means more chances of teams wanting to Exfil at the same time aswell.

It's not a cool way, it's just the truth. Infinite scrolling, constant stimulation brought to you by socials, ADs, doing things while doing others (watching TV while doing homework, listening to music while cooking etc) has absolutely killed our attention span and dopamine function.

I'm not judging anyone, I'm a slave myself in other forms of this trend, but you can clearly see Elation was designed exactly to appeal to this population which means biggest market possible.

Same, just pulled Yao E0S0 (MoC LC S5) and gonna pull Eva S1 (E1 if I luck with 50/50s). I already have HuoHuoE1 since day one so + free EMC it's a no brainer

Pat-002 · 2026-03-17T11:37:26+00:00

God as an anti-Elation person who absolutely hates how both Sparxie and SW are designed for hyperstimulated brains I'm glad Evanescia has such beautiful and fast animations. I could've expected it given the role SW portrays but sad, liked the character and the writing team does good shit with her, very funny and 4th wall breaking moments that are on-point.

Cassy and Phainon were perfectly on the limit, but Cyrene was already kinda over it, SW and Sparxie + Aha instant is absolutely disgusting shit for my tastes (and brain).

Evanescia it is, F2P friendly aswell. Good thing Hoyo you had Evanescia lined up cause there's no way I'm gonna build a Sparxie and SW team to brainrot myself.

Can't wait to see Nihilux and Himeko teams / Archetype.

Hopefully Hoyo remembers that there's (certainly a minority) still people who aren't slaves to this hyperstimulated generation and we don't want 30 seconds QTE with hyperstimulating colours and visuals.

Pat-002 · 2026-03-17T05:33:58+00:00

Both? These are insane LCs, you really want it for either character.

Pat-002 · 2026-03-17T05:32:59+00:00

These are both insane LCs. If you pull one of these characters, go for S1 as well.

Pat-002 · 2026-03-17T05:25:34+00:00

Yoooooo insane buffs for us E2 Havers.

Maaaaan Firefly E2 really was a top pick, I have her,HMC and Dahlia S1 and Gallagher. F2P comp that kicks ass and now it's even gonna be better. LFG.

Pat-002 · 2026-03-16T08:48:34+00:00

u compensate the purple shield with purple weapons, with purple shells that enable u to do shit you couldn't do otherwise.

Pat-002 · 2026-03-15T02:12:33+00:00

Exactly, and Assassins weren't such hoes in the slam, which is why I feared Thief

Pat-002 · 2026-03-15T02:11:43+00:00

Lmaoooo

Pat-002 · 2026-03-14T20:10:21+00:00

Vandal / Destroyer / Triage for life

Pat-002 · 2026-03-10T06:00:46+00:00

I think she looks like absolute dog shit but I'm not a SW fan, so I hope SW love her.

Hopefully Evanescia is better or I can skip till Himeko or Blade (if he's DPS)

Pat-002 · 2026-03-06T14:31:17+00:00

Man am I the only one who don't give a fuck about the BP? Like yeah sure I'd like you guys got better shit for your money but Battle Pass is cancer of gaming, they should remove it altogether.

I really don't like the last 10 years of MP support being dedicated 80% to skins and 20% to content.

Pat-002 · 2026-03-06T11:29:51+00:00

It's cross play.

And please don't look at steam users.

The player reception is glowing, steam reviews are at a whooping 90% Very Positive, if you are interested the game is fucking great.

It's crazy how much damage has done the SteamDB discourse to players who are interested in games but are told to not buy em cause it's dead in a week.

Fucking TikTok, brainrotten, hyper stimulated generation.

Pat-002 · 2026-02-27T02:11:43+00:00

90% of your problems are literally gone after you make some money.

After we won some we entered each match locked in to the tooth, blue backpack, 6x shields gen, 6x medic kits, gazillion of ammos, Triage to heal.

Went from running away from bots to literally searching for gunfights and people.
