Are there other games with stealth similar to UnderRail?
feel of thieving in general? dos1-2. Problem is that sneakery isnt that rewarding when invisibility is abundant and cheaper. Still I did enjoy it.

Otherwise it might be odd but... streets of rogue?

I'm finally playing this game through with a build that lets me mix it up with the enemy properly (crafted AR, crafted Kevlar/ceramic overcoat at the moment). Gotta say it's fucking brilliant fun. The dev is clearly on the spectrum and he brings out the autist in me.

Lads which trader is going to be able to sell me a 135 quality Hornet frame? I looted that ridiculous unique AR from an Ironhead and Myles said he'll upgrade it for me. I never see frames like that though?

Do you have access to the Oculus? Otherwise, check Core City traders, they might have something of that quality.

The Institute/Protectorate/Praetorian/JKK shops all can. More likely with high mercantile. Spooky spoiler guys too, assuming you know about them. If you don't then about forget I said that.
It's possible to get quality that high from the standard Core City shops or SGS, but you need to have progressed far enough in the main story. They upgrade their quality based on that. If you have the house then it's possible, if you don't then it's not.

Ok thanks, sounds like I need to progress the story a bit first. Haven't even gone to Core City yet.
anything q120+ that you get your hands on is GOOD. q140+ is for crafting items you will finish game with.

so yes, q135 is not something you are supposed to find early. Also thats why mercantile is shining, secret stocks help with getting high quality items

Yeah my build is basically as follows: Max out guns, throwing, mechanical, tailoring, hacking, lock picking, mercantile, persuasion, then fed 40 points in chemistry to craft molotovs.

This build is like chalk and cheese to the one I used on my first abortive playthrough. I was borderline playing the game wrong and it's surprising I got past Depot A.

Also this time I've played Oddity, deliberately delayed going to Core City as long as possible and explored as much as I can, including the Foundry and surrounding areas (hence running into Simon Peres). Very fun game.

Just did the gauntlet.

In a game that trades heavily in nightmare fuel, that has to be one of the most stressful and nightmarish sequences I've ever played in a game. Not because of difficulty (although I had to restart it because I ignored the keys first time round), but because it's absolutely fucking horrible.

On the internet, writing shit posts.
I don't know what's worse between Gautlet and Utility tower.
Utility Tower is bad because the real time sequence at the end against the snow ghost is jank as hell and ice blocks break your weapons so bloody quickly.
Gauntlet is bad because it's RNG dependent and can be pretty long.

Gauntlet is usually easy if you have access to strong disables and reliable crits (such as sniping).

However, UT's boss is usually a nasty surprise alone, when one's playing on hard through the whole damn dungeon (which is in itself a bit steep) to find out in the end, by the wiki, that you cannot fight against it unless you're playing on the cheese-and-die anyway difficulty.

Underrail is a good game mitigated by its weak ass lategame design, something Styggy should work on the upcoming sequel.

Nothing on the wiki, but my guess is lighter metal boots.
