Strategy

Electro-Fire Loop

The Electro-Fire Loop is a looping strategy similar in concept to the Vitrevern Loop for Laboratory Depths. In this case, it uses a mix of two elements to cover the majority of creature weaknesses found in the delve, and relies heavily on healing.

  • Tagalong: Any personality with a Fire-element attack (Recommended: Vitrevern)
  • Equipment: Electro-Arc Rifle + Mining Gear
  • Ammo: Arthrophobia

During battle, Search whenever the option comes up (Rocky Ground only needs to be searched once and Tunnelled Walls can be ignored if desired), and use only the weapon's normal attack. Ammo is only required for the 5% chance of Rock Kernel Bunch being a Trilopede trap, however they are weak to fire and will often die when you Search anyway.

During Examining turns, focus solely on healing. Rock Kernel Bunch is recommended if there, as it heals 20 HP 95% of the time. Orange Mushroom is also useful at the mid-range of HP, but only heals 12 as opposed to the Food Cube Snack's 15, so if low on HP it's recommended to use a Snack instead. If at full or near-full HP, feel free to pick a different option, but focus should be primarily on maintaining HP.

When reaching the boss, Search whenever possible (if Fungus Patch) or once (Rocky Ground) and use the normal weapon attack. Rapid Fire can do anywhere from over double weapon damage to slightly below it, so it's a gamble to use and isn't entirely required. Bad luck with Search results and Examining points can end a loop prematurely.
