LEA Research Lab is impossible

[Sevii]

I just can not clear it, I can't.
I tried it so many times now and I can't even get past Dr. Mannheim.
I know what to do I watched the guides I can't solo it (I am not good enough for that) I get overrun by everything.

I can't do it in random parties either because no one listens on what to do.
I don't have the option of a pre made party I don't have any friends I can coordinate with in here.
All my stuff is breaking I am running out of healing items and ammunition.

PLEASE I JUST WANNA GET THIS DONE AND CONTINUE THE STORY.
I was able to solo everything up til this point why did we need this roadblock in the story..

The Giant was also way harder than it should be. Please don't make me have to do pro difficulty stuff to advance the main story.

What weapons are you using? Ice? Fire? Lightning? Are they maxed out? is your armour maxed and the right set for the right boss? I've noticed the blast armour is pretty good with it's damage reduction.

The story ends after you kill forsaken giant for this phase, so...you're not missing much.

the weirdest thing is with the mother of life phase
i killed an ice element boss inside the ice element zone but the thing just won't register the kill
no matter how many times i killed the ice boss, the ice pod thing does not have that "rock" inside of it

You kill them while you are standing near the pod, they can be anywhere. Maybe that's what you meant but I wanted to clarify just in case.

I've never had one fail to transfer into the pod, there's actually an animation you can see of like a white spirit looking thing moving from the dead guy into the containment pod, but it could be a lag issue or something for sure.

I haven't gotten this far yet, but my only question is: is the fight as hard as Alpha Rockwell?

depends, if you are in tec armor when you do rockwell, if not in tec armor yes that hard, or in tech armor yea that easy.

I, too, hate joining randoms. However, in a server full of randoms,, as my friends all started weeks before I did, I really had no choice, or end up here in the forums like you are now, complaining because I didn't have anyone to do things with.

So I found a Warband and made new friends. Imagine that. Randoms become friends. Not only did they become friends, but my friends that started before I did, are nowhere NEAR as geared or far along as we are, or with the knowledge of the boss fights we have. Take the chance. So go get a group, make friends, and stop complaining. This is on you.

I'm not the greatest player or and not perfectly geared but was trying to solo LEA.
On the Dr Mannheim fight alone, I managed to go from full durability (repaired) to all broken armour, got him to about 5% when all my armour had broke and then got 1 hit 3 times in row.... obviously i need to either get better dps or better at dodging but still, durability should not be able to fully drain in a single fight without dying.

yea durability in this game is harsh to say the least.
it might be done for not have an endless pvp fight; but this low dura for pve makes no sens to me, then again i'm not a game designer.

With all due respect. I know it's not easy to make a game of this magnitude. I don't think the development team is good. The game is flawed in my aspects. Going from boss mechanics to durability to a whole plethora of bad design and ideas. I know a lot of people don't see it. Believe me. If you take the time to understand Once Human and actually let it sink it. This is a poorly designed game.

if you ask me, they made the entire game by AI, and just tweaked a few things here and there and called it a game. the map clearly is AI gen, but seeing what the problems the game has i'd say most of the code is also ai made if you ask me.
Having said this, this does not mean its a complete bad game, i'v seen worse games coded by humans.

Yeah, it's like they just used spreadsheets to cram together the most successful game mechanics they could find. It shouldn't work, and it usually doesn't, but by what appears to be blind luck it did work this time. It's like that time directer Uwe Boll made the Postal movie.

Jesus... Can you just watch mechanics on these dungeons on youtube? Giant can be done solo on pro with a few tries. LEA is not this hard eather. Use your mic. Tell people what to do if they don't know. If you can post this on a discussions - I bet you can wite a message in game chat and find some players to clear damn dungeon.

I just did a randoms last night and it turned out great. Are you attempting to just type, or are you using the game's built in voice chat? The built in voice chat was the magic for the group hammering through the fight. The guy that invited me to the group explained it all in voice chat. Everyone confirmed, then we went in.

[halanielf]

I honestly agree with seven... for the story quest why do they send you in a group activity... some people like to play solo...

LEA Research Lab makes no sense in this game, it's a sudden out of nowhere difficulty spike, that really does feel out of place when compared to the rest of this game's content.

No proper dungeon matchmaking, you have to rely on chat and hope that your team mates know what they're doing. My guess is that only min maxers enjoy this type of content, because it lets them feel superior over the other players, while literally everyone else just doesn't care that someone can beat this content and they go back to hunt for resources :)
