Summary
SteamWorld Heist 2has a lot of mechanics that will drop quickly in-between missions. For example, Bounties don’t unlock until a few missions which significantly changes the dynamic. Most missions can be replayed and they will offer players green Bounty emblems for completing certain objectives.
When everyone in the party is exhausted inSteamWorld Heist 2, players have to turn in for the day, and in that process, they must also spend their emblems on prizes. Unused emblems will get converted to Water, the world’sbizarre natural currency. Let’s go through some prizes that players should grab as soon as possible within the first tier.
7Torpedo 1
Upgrade The Sub’s Arsenal
One of the newest features inSteamWorld Heist 2is the ship battles. Well, instead of a ship, players cruise around the world in a sub above the water but the result is the same. Players can upgrade their sub with accessories that can boost stats like speed and HP.
They can also arm it with weapons and unlike mostsailing games with ship combat, weapons will launch automatically inSteamWorld Heist 2once the sub is close to an enemy. One of the best weapons players can get is called the Torpedo 1 which is a Bounty reward. With these babies equipped to the sub, enemies won’t know what hit them.
6Crossbow
Give Wesley A Deadlier Weapon
The Crossbow is a weapon for the Reaper class and Wesley is the starting hero with this arrangement. Typically, Reapers use sub-machine guns but this weapon works too. The strength is high with 4 damage as the standard and it has a chance to hit critically.
There are risks with using it though just like there are risks with usingbows in other games. Unlike bullets, the trajectory of crossbow bolts will lessen the further they travel. This means players have to be pretty close to being effective.
5Repair Kit 1
Heal The Party In A Snap
Some classes can heal while damaging enemies like the Brawler. Other classes have a healing spell like the Engineer’s Maintenance Protocol which can heal allies within a small radius. Both of these are great classes because of these abilities.
Most classes don’t have this benefit though so they have to rely on gear like the Repair Kit 1. It’s the earliest Utility Item that can heal characters on a mission. It only heals for2 HP but it is a start inSteamWorld Heist 2.
4Sidearm 1
Give Party Members An Extra Shot At Villains
The Sidearm 1 is another great Utility Item and this one is attack-based. Any character can holster an extra pistol during a mission and then fire it at least twice. There is a cooldown period, so players can’t use it wildly like an old gunslinger.
It’s a great Utility Item for characters who don’t usually have ranged weapons. For example, Cornelius is one of those aforementioned Brawlers and they use hammers primarily. A Sidearm 1 Utility Item can make Brawlers like him more versatile during combat.
3Tier 1 Weapon
The Reveal Is A Mystery
The Tier 1 Weapon selection in the Bounty system is a mystery. Typically, players will get one of the six main weapons associated with the six classes of Sniper, Brawler, Flanker, Boomer, Reaper, and Engineer. Once characters equip a weapon, they will change classes.
Getting this Bounty reward can give players options to turn into later classes earlier like the Brawler or Flanker. Spreadingskills across multiple classes inSteamWorld Heist 2is the easiest way to strengthen individual characters. While the Tier 1 Weapon reward will usually be of lower quality, sometimes players can get Rare classified weapons like the Sniper’s Skelectric rifle.
2Fragments
Another Form Of Currency For Upgrades
When all of the good items and upgrades are bought with Bounty cash, then players should get someFragments inSteamWorld Heist 2. They come in a variety of options from 2 to 3 to 7. Once the biggest collections are bought, they will not respawn.
Overall, Fragments are even more valuable than Gallons of Water inSteamWorld Heist 2as they can upgrade characters so much. From unlocking new skill trees to expanding the amount of party members that can be hired inSteamWorld Heist 2, players will always run short of on-hand Fragments.
1Gallons
The World Runs On Water
To reiterate, any unused Bounty emblems will be converted into Water once the day is done. Water, through Gallons, can also be purchased in larger quantities from the Bounty board. It’s not the most luxurious prize in the world as players can get Water in many ways from exploring the ocean by sailing around to completing missions.
Still, players who have grown up with video games know that they should not waste any opportunities to acquire resources as abundant as they can likeWater inSteamWorld Heist 2. Water can buy Utility Items, and weapons, recruit party members, and so much more.
