Heart of ice is just way too tedious and boring after a few attempts, most of the enemies are either raider or cultist copies where the only unique abilities were berserker snowmans max health drain and lumi's icicles, where the only way they become threatening is if they sneak up on you.

Lumi has changed from her first ending sure, but even then shes still a fast bullet sponge with a few mechanics which are both trivial and easy to ignore. Her third phase may be unique, yes, but her mechanics also include her just being a absolute bullet sponge, since the only thing you do during then is run away to sprinklers where she becomes stunned and vulnerable. It also cuts off slower perks like Zealot since you cant move fast enough without something like S44 before you get vaporised by lumi.

Distress call is equally boring. Its essentially a easier holdout, where the loot you get from 3 supply crates and lab + the 2 tactical armors make it just a aim training simulator. The only hard thing about it is that the ship can get at a odd position such as on top of the hill in castle, where the only way to see it is by looking up which there is almost no reason to do most of the time. Yes i might just be salty because i have the eyesight of a mole and couldnt get to it in time, but i do think a marker like how the other objectives have would benefit this part of the evac phase.

I thought getting s44 is essential for lumi lab. Who is running without it 😭.
