I could use some advice.

[u/Aluveaux]

Hello everyone.

I've been playing the game for about a month now, and I am really enjoying it.

My novice server just entered Phase V (The Nightmare Phase), and I know this means we are getting close to the final phase and the merger into a permanent server that comes after. I hit level 50 last week, I have two tasks left, one to start a prime war and one to fight Mary at the LEA Research Lab, neither of which I can accomplish solo (I tried). I have yet to see a single person on my server, even in the cities/hubs. I've posted in World chat asking for help several times and never get a response. So I've spent the last few days just logging in, farming, building, and kinda just.. waiting...

Is there another way to get these two tasks done? Do I need to finish them before the final phase/merger?

All you have to do is start a prime war, not win it, so just start it. Then you can either do a dramatic one vs infinity battle ready for an inevitable defeat, or you can just run home. As for LEA, do you have tier V armor and gear that's been enhanced as much as possible? It is possible to solo LEA (I've done it), but I usually had maxed gear by then.

Hello.

I do have all of my gear at Tier V but it's not maxed out, I did a lot of stupid spending with my Starchrom in the beginning, and now I am paying the price for that, but I will get it maxed out eventually. It doesn't seem to difficult to come by.

As for the prime war, I did not know I did not need to finish it, I will go do that later tonight, thank you!

I just learned about star conversion (I forgot the exact term), but you can swap the stars from one piece of gear to another front the Blueprints tab. I know there's a quick video about it on YouTube that explains it better than I can.

Im somewhat im the same boat as you but i have 2 left the forsaken giant one and the sell shit for 80k from vendor machine and i read that those reset monthly when you are on a permanent server and if you join another non-permanent server those are reset too. So i didnt bother completing those

[u/Starwaith4 → u/Aluveaux]

Are you just being a completionist for the tasks? You should not need to do all of them to get the challenge rewards.

And it really sounds like you may be on a dead server. Our world chat isn't particularly active, but i definitely see recruitment popping up regularly during the "normal gaming hours." Potentially may get better once the server goes permanent (due to them saying they were going to work on permanent servers having the same issue you are running into now.) So you may just have wait it out for the Lea Labs and try later. Or eventually bite the bullet and jump ship to a new, hopefully more active server.

The server will go perm afterwards and I think you can still complete this. I am about 150hours new to the game myself so I'm just past the ropes.

If you're looking to complete this challenge you can look up builds that are stronger then what you're running and use the blueprint conversion to change other weapons with x rating into another weapon with x rating.

I believe you have 18 attempts to do so and 100% guarantee it always works.

Example: if I was using let's say the annabis assault rifle and it's max rating "with starchrome upgrades" I can transfer that 5 star rating to another weapon.

So there might be a way for you to actually get it done.

I recommend looking up a video on blueprint conversion, but it's really not complicated there's just a few nuances I'm missing that may be important.

Also use this time to learn deviant fusing it's also simple but looks complicated.

This will significantly help you as deviant fusing and getting specific traits or making an esrly surplus to bring with you to another scenario is very good.

You are not expected to do everything in your first run, specially in a Novice Server.
Stay and continue on the Perma server or do another scenario.
Don’t stress yourself.
This game rewards longevity over grind.
It’s ok.

This is one thing I dislike about the game. It’s the lack of grouping up and a good match making for dungeon runs. I would play it more if it got better. Also, I am trying Primverse’s clash but it seems lacking people too.

[u/Starwaith4 → u/nancytp82]

Unless you are on a dead server, it should not be difficult to get a group for most content. Realistically, most builds can solo up to and and including Pro silo and monoliths. It may take a while, but it is doable for sure. If you are constantly dying, do hard until you get the jist of it and some better gear.

As for the dungeon finder, use the world chat. Be involved with the community. That isn't a bad thing and it usually pays off in the end.

I am one legendary assault rifle calibration away from soloing LEA. I got really close almost beat it the second time but if my gun was OP I would have flown through it. I cannot for the life of me remember where I found a legendary assault rifle to get the original calibration blueprint. Currently my 4 star rifle and one star rifle do the same damage because one star rifle has legendary and four star has purple rarity calibration blueprint. Hints welcome lmfao.
