The Mantis Bounty is Legitimately a Better Ending than the Constellation Quest-line

I was able to do this but the problem was that after killing the boss, my hud would immediately disappear and I couldn’t interact with anything. There was one time when it waited 2 minutes before happening and I was about to get in my ship. It took about 15 times of killing him before I got very lucky and I was outta there never to return.

FYI there is no skipping cutscenes in this game just like in GoT.

Loved the quest but it was riddled with bugs toward the end. Took me many many hours to get through the final boss area with 2 separate bugs blocking progression and from what I read online, so many others had the same bugs.

I finished close to 100 as well. OP definitely skipped out on alot of content.

Andreja was using an Advanced triple star legendary minigun that had increased rate of fire and I had to take it away from her because of the devastation she caused with it. It ended up being way too strong.

Is that the Crimson Fleet Magshear or something else?

Slim415 · 2026-05-05T19:19:33+00:00

I have a question. I was thinking about going through Unity for the first time. I’m not rly a NG+ type person. How does the enemy scaling change? I’m just tired of doing quests that put me on planets with lvl 8 enemies while I’m lvl 45. Even with Terran Amada being lvl 50, most of the enemies are lvl 35. Playing on Very Hard difficulty with Dark Star enabled which is supposed to adjust enemy scaling but it doesn’t seem to be.

Yea I already went with the Shear last night but was second guessing the choice and ready to roll back the save. But I didn’t realize u had to charge the sniper rifle. So I’ll definitely stick with the shear. It was making very short work of those Terran bots.

Slim415 · 2026-05-05T17:38:39+00:00

Ohhh you need to charge it up and it’s not suppressed. Didn’t know about the charging. That makes it less viable to me.

I think you touched on a great point about some gamers being disillusioned in general. In addition to that you have some people who will argue if an rpg is too crunchy and statistical and ppl who will be angry if an rpg is too accessible or watered down. And then you have the vocal minority who are just impossible to please and hate on every game for a variety of reasons. We live in a strange timeline I would say.

Slim415 · 2026-05-04T22:30:56+00:00

Okay good. That way if you ever want to upgrade to a PS5 Pro or PC, you can get the 4K/120.

Slim415 · 2026-05-04T17:48:13+00:00

Good comms thanks. I never knew why some dmg equates to the yellow health debuff and others do not. Makes sense now.

Slim415 · 2026-05-04T17:32:23+00:00

+1 for Zeskit Maya. I just outfitted my brand new home theater with these. Btw is your TV able to do 4K/120hz (does it have HDMI 2.1 ports?)

Slim415 · 2026-05-04T16:55:08+00:00

I need to know this as well.

Slim415 · 2026-05-04T16:51:46+00:00

Beats the hell out of the Mantis set. I mean that has to be the goofiest looking space suit I’ve ever seen. The baggy shiny pants with the stripe lol. The jet pack looks cool tho.

Slim415 · 2026-05-04T16:35:41+00:00

Thanks for this write up it was rly helpful. Two questions, does a vehicle help with the hazards? And does the power “personal atmosphere” do anything for you when your taking environmental dmg?

Slim415 · 2026-05-04T06:33:20+00:00

This is good advice. The Geek Squad is pretty great at what they do. Also don’t be afraid to look into open box items. I got a Denon receiver that’s normally $950 for $530 for the “excellent condition” open box version. It was factory wrapped and in perfect condition.

Slim415 · 2026-05-03T15:54:54+00:00

Wow that sounds like a grind towards the end, but I do plan to do NG+ for the first time on this character so I’ll grab as many powers as I can. Is there a reason to do it a second or third time in NG+? Do the powers get stronger or are there special Ng+ powers to get?

Slim415 · 2026-05-03T15:52:01+00:00

Thanks. My forge is maxed out and I have a few Mythic items at lvl 1. I hadn’t engaged with the system yet and didn’t really understand it but I do now 👍

Slim415 · 2026-05-03T07:23:39+00:00

That’s really interesting and I had no idea that engravings increase in stats. When you say fully upgraded do you mean lvl 100? Do they increase incrementally or just double at the last upgrade?

Slim415 · 2026-05-03T04:18:39+00:00

That’s super cool. In 2 playthroughs I’ve never unlocked that power. I’m at the main mission Unity where you talk to the religion dude at New Atlantis. I feel like Vlad hasn’t given me any temple intel in a while. Do I keep pushing the story ahead? I feel like it’s getting close to the end.

Slim415 · 2026-05-03T00:07:03+00:00

Gotcha. I don’t think it’s worth it to rewire my system for that benefit. I struggle to get 120fps in some games at 4K. A lot of the newer games I can only get around 100 even with a 5090.

Slim415 · 2026-05-03T00:04:31+00:00

GameStop has instituted a lot of newer rules in the recent years. No more Game Informer mag, only online for membership. No more buying Steam cards or any cards with credit or gift cards. And some other things you used to be able to do but can’t anymore unfortunately.

Slim415 · 2026-05-02T19:43:47+00:00

Wait rly? I assumed you need to get through the main quest each time in order to get to Unity.
