First off...

Very well done. You jerk.

Second, I started on Uai and had light armor and a basic assault rifle/sniper weapon set.
I completed the Abandoned Bunker by means of blunt force drama (and nobody saw the times I simply wasn't paying attention to my surroundings).

Having run the POI in RF1 and RF2, and having just seen the new version for the first time, it was a great upgrade. The new liquid blocks greatly enhanced the visuals of the sewer section, and the cryo/corrosive clouds (and laser fence) add some fun hazards to work around.

For a good chunk, I forgot to build a POI vehicle, which greatly sped up the last third of the run. At least, until I innocently presumed the Protofector was in the 'normal boss' category.

For spoiler reasons, let's just say I had to handle the fight on foot and was able to do it simply enough on the second try, though my weapon options were nearly insufficient due to durability hinderances. I won't spoil the dirty trick I encountered. It was well-played and good thinking, you jerk.

As I understand the value of encouragement, you are doing a fantastic job with Reforged Eden 2 and the ideas you are putting together. This small taste of how well you are integrating your concepts together has me excited to see the whole, and I will really enjoy the storyline experience when you finally get it finished. I may have to do a max difficulty start in the future, after the Beta phase finally ends, just to enjoy the overcoming challenge.
