Navigate the treacherous Ghost Base in Risk of Rain Returns. Find essential items like the Bulletproof Vest and ID Card, and discover the optional encounter with Dr. Optica.
Walkthrough
- 1Enter the first building of the Ghost Base. Follow the passage down and left, then proceed on foot through the broken wall.
- 2In the first area, walk up keeping to the right, then through the open doorway.
- 3Head up the stairs, continuing on the central stairs to the top floor. In the room with green sleeping figures, find the Bulletproof Vest in the left room and the ID Card (e) on a desk.
- 4On the top floor, use the trick of shutting and opening the left wardrobe to find the Plasma Storm.
- 5Return to the second floor room with beds. Use the same wardrobe trick on the right wardrobe to find the Saratoga Suit and the left wardrobe for the CVC Suit.
- 6Go back to the ground floor, leave the stairs area by heading down, then left and up towards two computer terminals.
- 7Before the terminals, head up between the wall and computers to find two wardrobes. Open the right one to get the Howling Gun.
- 8Use the ID Card (e) on the left computer terminal and press OPEN. The right terminal can be switched on but may be best left off.
- 9Retrace your steps back to your tanks. Drive right to the far wall, then down. Drive left, all the way left and up, then down one ramp at the top left corner.
- 10Drive past the second ramp on this floor, heading down into a garage-type area. Avoid the second ramp, which leads to an impassable conveyor belt.
- 11Park your tanks and head right, over broken rocks, then up through an open entrance. Go right, keeping to the bottom wall.
- 12At the far wall, go up to find a ladder in the corner. Climb it and walk along the stopped conveyor belt. Avoid the wooden box containing a tank weapon.
- 13Follow the stopped conveyor belt left, up, right, up, left, and so on. Try not to fall off, as this will send you back to the beginning of the belt.
- 14If you fall, you'll land on a moving belt. If you stay on it, you'll return to the blue robot area, requiring you to go back up the ladder.
- 15To progress after falling, walk left against the moving conveyor belt, then turn down the screen to continue on the conveyor path.
- 16Navigate the belt down and then right, which will lead you into another large room with empty boxes.
- 17Continue right, finding ramps going up. You will eventually emerge outside.
- 18Go right to a narrow doorway. Inside is a friendly robot named Saturday. Use the computer screen next to him to open the gate to the outside.
- 19Here you can meet Dr. Optica. If you have three lenses, answer yes to have him craft something for you. You can return later.
Tips
- Bring plenty of Para-Nons and Top-Off Drinks, along with spare protectors.
- Ensure your party is at a good health level, as sneak attacks from enemies like GI Skeletons can be dangerous.
- The wardrobe trick is essential for obtaining powerful body armor.
- Be extremely careful on the conveyor belts, as falling off can lead to significant backtracking.
- If you switch the conveyor on using the right-hand computer, it might offer an easier ride to the end, but can be difficult to navigate.
