Master the 'Target | 506 gold' objective in Risk of Rain Returns with this expert guide. Learn strategies and tips to efficiently gather gold and progress.
Alright, so you've stumbled upon the 'Target | 506 gold' section. Don't let the number scare you; this is totally doable and a pretty standard part of getting your tank kitted out. Think of it as a mini-milestone to get you rolling.
- 1Riorad Village: You'll start here. First things first, poke around the wooden boxes and drawers – you might find some useful starting items. Once you're done looting, head southeast.
- 2South Cave: Keep an eye out for more wooden boxes to search as you make your way through. Your goal here is to reach B2 where you'll face your first boss, the Bionic Pooch. Chat with it and say 'yes' to start the fight.
- 3Boss Fight - Bionic Pooch: Don't worry, you won't be alone! Red Wolf's tank shows up to help you out. After you take down the Bionic Pooch, Red Wolf will have a chat. Just agree with him ('yes').
- 4Getting the Tank: Head to the computer near where you fought the boss. Access the menu, select 'search,' then 'gate control.' Choose 'OPEN' and hit A twice. Now, find the tank (it's called Mosquito) and get inside. Drive it out of the cave and head northwest.
- 5North Cave: More boxes to search on your way in. On B3, you'll see some holes near a treasure chest. It's a bit of a detour, so you can grab it later if you're worried about overloading Mosquito. Push on to B4.
- 6Boss Fight - Salmonella Family: This is your next target. After you defeat them, you'll get your first monster badge. Now, you can either head back to Riorad Village for supplies or push north towards the Northern Barrier.
- 7Northern Barrier: Get off Mosquito and head into the room with the TV. Talk to the guy on the right and say 'yes' to get the 'ID card (c)'. Search any boxes around.
- 8Opening the Gate: Go to the computer in the top-right room. Use your ID card (c) via the 'partner' > 'tool' menu to open the gate. Get back on Mosquito and drive east to Negi Village.
- 9Negi Village: This is a good spot to stock up. Check out the equipment and tool shops. A cool little side thing: search the lower right corner of the potato field and say 'yes' four times to cultivate it and get a 'wedding ring.' Give this to the girl in the kitchen nearby, and she'll give you the 'ruby lens (1-4).'
- 10Bobre Opre Town: Another hub for supplies. You'll find shops for equipment, parts, and even rental tanks. If you donate 1000G or more to Maria at the school, a statue will be built!
- 11Uriu-san's House: Head east to this location. After an event inside, you'll meet Masakazu, a mechanic who can join your crew. He'll hop into Mosquito with you.
- 12Seashore Factory: Make your way here and head up to 3F. Talk to the President twice to get permission to use the wild buggy. Masakazu can help you get it ready.
- 13Buggy and Mosquito Combo: Use the Buggy to navigate through ledges and holes until you reach 1F. Then, get Mosquito ready to drive across the iron bridge.
- 14Boss Fight - Dos Piranas: This is your next prize head boss. After you defeat them, you'll earn another monster badge. Drive both vehicles back to Bobure Opure Town.
- 15Upgrades in Bobure Opure Town: Visit the tank curio dealer to buy a 'dug system' (it's like a warp for Mosquito). Also, grab 8 armor-piercing rounds for Mosquito at the cannon ball shop.
- 16Cannon Gun Position: Head north from Negi Village, through the exploding field. Drive into the position with the big cannons.
- 17Boss Fight - Big Cannon: This is your first encounter with the Big Cannon boss. Use your armor-piercing rounds to shock it. After the fight, use the 'dug system' on Mosquito to warp back to Bobure Opure Town for more supplies if needed. Then, return and defeat the second Big Cannon.
- 18Audrey Town: Head northeast. You'll find more shops here, including a parts remodel shop.
- 19Recruiting Jean: In the bar area, find the female soldier Jean. After a brief fight against the Bad Group x6, she'll join your party.
- 20Transmission Center: In the bar's basement, use the computer in the transmission center to warp to Negi Village.
- 21Negi Swamp: Exit Negi Village and head into the swamp.
- 22Boss Fight - Dr. La Flecha: This prize head boss awaits you in the swamp. Defeat him to earn another monster badge.
- 23Final Transmission: Head back to Negi Village's transmission center and warp to Audrey Town.
- Don't be afraid to backtrack to Riorad Village or Bobre Opre Town to resupply your ammo and repair your vehicles. It's better than getting stuck!
- Keep an eye on your tank's condition. The repair shops are your best friend.
- The 'dug system' is a lifesaver for quickly getting around the map. Make sure you have enough ammo for Mosquito before warping.
- Always search those wooden boxes and drawers – you never know what useful items you might find!
Completing these objectives and gathering the necessary resources will put you well on your way to upgrading your tank and progressing through the game, ultimately helping you reach that 506 gold target and beyond.
