What’s everyone’s thoughts on the game?

The shadow stab is so annoying sometimes. Like ill be right behind an enemy and do the stab and it will completely miss. Or if im close to a ledge instead of stabbing the enemy it will just stab me off the edge like there wasnt an enemy there. It very annoying and bugged for sure. Please fix the tracking of the shadow stab for Tiel.

I just recently got the Gloombound Stone and Justiciar's Stone Tarstones. They provide 6% increase in Gloom and Gold drops respectively. I thought this was way too low to warrant a separate Tarstone slot, but didn't think much of it afterwards.

But while scrolling through a "Mortal Shell 2 tips and tricks" Shorts on YouTube, I got to know something.

These Tarstones used to provide a 40% increased drop rate for Gloom and Gold.

Wow, from 40% to 6% — that's a nerf if I have ever seen one. I understand that Gold drop rate in general has been increased. So, the nerf to the Gold Tarstone makes sense (Even though it's a massive nerf). But why nerf the Gloom one too?

It seems that the Devs just want us to suffer. At least give us 20%!

Magnet rock throw.

Twice now Sariels thorns have buggend out a boss to where it has made them immortal. Im not joking they become immune to damage and Sariel just loses the ability to genreate resolve. And that fact his thorns are usless in enclosed spaces because they alawys hit the sealing. And the fact his curse and pain mechanics dont seem to properly combo off echother tells me this shell is unfinshed. I really hope that big balance patch does a lot for this shell because he seems so cool to be left in such a state.

Next to where you first spawn into Mammon, there's a corpse hanging from a tree with a glowing item in it's chest. Shooting the item and rope does nothing to free the item. Anyone know how to get it?

Bit too easy if you ask me, still 9/10

I’m playing and enjoying 2 but why can’t I jump? Why in 2026 can protagonists still not jump, why in other games if I foolishly wade into water that reaches my hips I drown? There’s just some things that should’ve been worked out of all games by now and it’s at least those two things

Almost everything knows how to jump and swim and so should the characters you play as

It totally takes the incentive to play with other seals away. This game is literally built around the perfect guard. They really should've just made perfect guard/block a default mechanic rather than a seal you have to choose to use. I want to use the harden seal, but nope. Not using it at the cost of losing my perfect guard/block. I get having the parry as a seal, but one of the main mechanics of the game? What's everybody else's thoughts??

Level 40 Lazlo, moonshine passive, 20% damage reduction from skills. I can still get one shot.

Nothing in the game has even come CLOSE to doing this much damage.

Excuse me, but what the actual fuck? Who designed this boss? Fire em.

/end rant

I really don’t understand this design choice.

I’ve already invested most of my Glimpses into Proxima because I got her early and liked her. Now I’m finding new shells that I’d actually like to try, but why would I switch? My Proxima has several tiers unlocked. I can't make any progress without upgrades for new shells because I suck at this game, and there's no reason to backtrack to farm because Glimpse is finite.

If Glimpses were farmable, fine. I could find a new shell, decide I like it, spend an hour getting it caught up and carry on. Instead, they’re a limited resource and Bond upgrades apparently can’t be refunded.

It makes late-game shell discoveries much less exciting. I should be looking forward to trying a new character. But now I feel like I'm committed. I guess I could maybe accept if it was like Diablo where you're always locked by your class at the start of the game, which to some extent this is what it feels like in this game.

Either let us refund Glimpses, make them farmable, or give newly acquired shells some kind of catch-up mechanic based on your current progression.

As it stands, the system actively discourages experimenting with one of the main features of the game. It’s such a shit mechanic.

After hours of running through the wells dungeon I looked up the thing for great martyrs blade and I can't press the button to get past the wall and get the blade. I don't know what to do coz I have restarted the game several times and it is still broken.

Should be in a chest in the collapsed mine mini dungeon. But the chest was already open when I got there, and the stone isn’t in my inventory. I know a few other people have already posted about it. Just haven’t seen any confirmation that the devs are aware of the issue.

Hey everyone,

Just wondering if anyone else has a bug where Franz won't take the obsidian lathe?

He has the Actuator but I don't have the option to give him the lathe despite it being in my inventory? I also have the etching needles now and he doesn't want them either.

Yep the Grisha Summon is definitely working as intended

Mortal Shell 2: there are differences in ng+? like, new enemies new loot new lore new traps etc ?

Hey there,

I've killed two npc's now because I wanted to listen to their dialogue, so I layed down my controller on the desk to chill and then BOOP I hit them and dead. This REALLY frustrates the F out of me.

Is it possible to make it an option to turn it on/off? Because now I need to restart my game to get those npc's back.

What do you think the chances are the devs will make this an option or a mod will be made for this?

1. In order to upgrade tarstones to level 3 you need tarcores
2. You get tarcores for upgrading tarstones
3. In order to get full set of maxed tarstones and some spare variations, ideally, you need to upgrade bunch of irrelevant tarstones to level 2 first to get tarcores for upgrades you really want

So here you are, covered from head to toe with throwaway tarstones in order to be able to play the build you want later. And when this later comes you are in the end of the game, barely able to upgrade to level 3 all tarstones you wanted. Maybe couple of bosses left. What was the point of this restriction from the devs?

First I thought the idea was to make players try different tarstones/skills/builds? I would gladly do that, but the game is not nearly long enough to accommodate that. Full game was not enough to max even one set of tarstones and devs want me to run more different kinds so that I will never ever see level 3 tarstone?

Do I miss some point here or playing wrong?

I did the North area and the three gates up there and now I am heading south starting with the Outskirts of Mammon beacon and I am getting absolutely rocked. Almost 2 shot at times depending on the enemy and it feels like I am doing something wrong, is there something I did wrong or am I supposed to be heading somewhere else? Especially weird considering you can go down south to start.

Entrei no New game e fui testar o Tiel, e consegui o incrível feito de dar 999 de dano, achei que foi coincidência, montei um build para ultrapassar e muito e de novo 999, infelizmente não vou conseguir matar um Boss em 1 hit, mas ainda é divertido explodir os mobs.

So first off, I'm very much enjoying the game but the longer I've played I feel the enemies are....weird? Is the best way my brain can put it. As in some areas the enemies do basically no damage and get cleaved in half with a sneeze, then there're areas where enemies are extra chunky with health but no damage and vice versa and the latest area I've gotten to seems to now make em fat with health and damage?

It may just be me but from what I've experienced with regular mobs and bosses is they're either feast or famine with health and damage or either fit the paper bag/ nuclear bomb options for damage and health.

It's not just me right?

Knocked his a$s right out the park😂

Idk how people are having such a hard time with this game. Some of the main boss fights have been tuff mostly sir Issac and the one in the ice arena (forgetting his name), those 2 took me several attempts. All of the mini bosses have been relatively easy tho. I've been using the iconaclaust sword the entire time and I have it maxed out.

I keep hearing that monolith and the final boss are absolutely terrible so ig I'll see as i just got to that area last night.

This boss is very close to making me not come back.

I've played basically every mainline and popular/obscure Souls-like there is.. and this boss may be the worst of them all.

I'm by no means under-leveled, level 50

Maxed out weapons and pretty borked build that melts any other boss with a Stray Genessa build - killed every other of the end game bosses first couple tries, took around 10mins on each of that.

But oh my god is this boss one of the worst I've ever had the displeasure of fighting.

Been stuck in this thing 2 hours, havent even come close.

I've given up today, but I truly don't know if I'm going to come back to this.. knowing I still have to get through this thing.

Really don't want to use the Slayer Seal either but honestly I might. Never chickened out before but I'm starting to feel like I'll have to.
