The First Descendant Hotfix 1.2.3 Explained: High-Powered Rounds BUFF & Bonus Coins FIXED!

[@RealAsianRobot]

ERRORS AND CORRECTIONS: - Disrupt Invasion challenge is incorrectly stated in the video. You have to clear all 4 invasions 10 times. Therefore the challenge will take you 10 days instead of 2.5 as I mentioned in the video. Reason for error: I misinterpreted it while reading as clearing the invasion missions rather than disrupting them. I.e. wishful thinking on my part. Thank you to the sharp eyed viewers who point out the errors listed above!

[@dazzler6123]

PlayStation crashes would be a nice fix

[@RealAsianRobot]

Be sure to make it known in the official discord. The more people that speak up about this, the better.

For the Reactor Improvement challenge, just buy a blue level 1 reactor from Deslin for only 1,000g. Upgrade that for 1 silver Ion Accelerator. Cheap and fast.

[@RealAsianRobot]

Yeah another commenter mentioned this, 100% valid. If I'm lazy I'll just use a purp, but best value is definitely the blue

[@NotoriousNickNorris]

I appreciate that you didn't just read the list, you actually talked relevance. That's what we need from folks like you. Keep up the good work buddy.

No problem. I'm here to actually give the community information. Although sometimes I do get stuff wrong, just be sure to check the pinned comments of the vid in order to ensure that any corrections are noted :)

[@adrnwong]

He's wrong about the disrupt invasion award. Disrupt invasion means clearing all 4 invasion missions. So it will take 10 days, not 2.5.

[@RealAsianRobot]

Thanks for this information 😁👍. I appreciate you picking up on that. I'll write a pinned comment to explain

They missed Misterys End entrance problem. It doesn’t matter if you entered first or w/ur squad, it animates the teletransport

[@RealAsianRobot]

Fair enough, be sure to let them know in the official discord

[@MrOntorius]

"fixed an issue where players couldn't join their allies" yeah when you get to the last room of heart of the fortress you'd respawn back at the door after being already in there, they need to fix that on several other missions also, i.e. magister lab, mysterys end and unknown laboratory, when running those 3 maps and also heart of the fortress, it would respawn you during the 400 mission, and sometimes during the disrupt invasion it would spawn you right outside the door after it was closed and you wouldn't be able to join your team at the end fight. so if you have the connection with them please contact them and let them know about this bug.

[@RealAsianRobot]

If you want to inform about bugs. Use their official discord to highlight these areas. Especially if you can provide video evidence of the problems. Also, huge piece of advice. If you started streaming/creating content, I'm happy for you, BUT you must never ever mention it on someone else's channel or post. Doing so basically marks you as "That Guy" who is desperately trying to post up on someone else's work in the hope of getting a viewer or two. This will earn you unnecessary hate and you really don't want that to happen. So in future, please refrain from ever doing that for the sake of your own reputation.

I havent played in long time. Just logged in to get ultimate bunny since acquiring her was my long term f2p plan. Was easy have to say. Going to i belive final story area today. I think this game finally clicked for me when I noticed i had 3/3 best ultimate weapons in my account I literally had no idea. Have not really found a char I super like to play yet. Freyna being best so far but lets see how ultimate bunny feels.

3:18 not sure if it is 2 and half days to do 10 because before the hotfix, if you did 4 invasion missions, it only counted 1 towards the "Face the Invasion" weekly therefore you have to do it 10 days. Not sure if they patched it, will have to double check this

[@nunya2400]

10 = 10 DAYS... I foresee the shotgun Sharen and shotgun gley benefiting from the high power round change.

[@RealAsianRobot]

The error is noted and already in the pinned comment. My apologies for the misinterpretation

[@w1mark275]

The high powered rounds change might be a decent change for newer players starting for the game. I know when I first started, I pretty much never used any of the snipers as it felt pointless to level them up because you'd use them to kill 1 miniboss and you were essentially out for the rest of the open world missions until you found those super rare high powered round drops. With the additional changes such as getting 15 round by default I feel like it should feel better if you just want to have a sniper rifle to take out a few enemies here and there.

[@RealAsianRobot]

I agree, and you can check my short, it's not too bad against Colossi too (to an extent)

[@w1mark275]

@@RealAsianRobot Yea fighting deathstalker recently to finish off crafting my frost watcher and I brought my smithereens for a little extra burst with kyle and I was sorta surprised I had like 25-30 shotgun shells.

[@doriangray1935]

Main problem with high power round is not even the capacity but ammo drop rate. It's so rare and even when it drops it's like 2 bullets, like wtf Oh and those conversion modules also don't work the way you'd think. They only convert bullets that you actually picked up(when you're not max capacity), so that for example if you have maximum general rounds, general round conversion doesn't work. Correct me if I'm missing something. Cheers!

[@RealAsianRobot]

It's based on the maximum reserve you can have. Have you seen my vid on how to make an 'extendo'. If not, you might want to reference that, the idea is to be able to fill up the ammo you need UP TO the stipulated or enhanced reserve, via other round types.

[@blacksage81]

The ammo drop rate, and awarded ammo would logically be the next fix. After that, maybe being a Shotgun main on any descendant other than Gley may become a reality.

[@TheWraithone]

I want to know why they messed with the hard defense. Now there's only one. I hope it's just a glitch, and they fix it.

@RealAsianRobot I meant shotgun/launcher/sniper with Enzo. With higher values he should be able to maintain ammo longer and play with any heavy weapon ammo. Before, even using restored, a shotgun just felt like it was always emptying before it should have
