Even cooler, while reactor cores are locked to the mech you spend them on, you can rearrange them on that mech as much as you want, so feel free to experiment between missions. Spending a few reactor cores on your standard mech may increase its damage or movement range. The more you have, the more you can unlock on a given mech. Think of these almost like upgrade points for your mech powers. As a bonus, when you unlock a pilot you’ll be able to select that pilot from your hanger from here on out. Ideally by the end of the game you’ll have all three, as the named ones offer direct upgrades with more skills to unlock. Each Into the Breach game starts you off with one named pilot and two anonymous ones. Occasionally these pods will also contain pilots. We’ll talk about these more in a second, but you should collect as many of these as possible. They contain extremely handy upgrades for your team.įor one, they’ll usually have reactor cores. Always, always, always save these (simply by leaving a mech on that space at the end of a turn). Periodically throughout your adventures, you’ll come across time pods that crash down on the map. These combos are key to your survival, so you’ll want to get used to mastering them. How does this positioning help you? Well, smart movement can shove a powerful alien away from a city, or block an incoming underground Vek from spawning on the next turn (which, in turn, causes them to take damage). The Prime’s power punch will shove enemies one space away from you, while the artillery gunner can push up to four units away from the initial blast point. Your starting squad, the Rift Walkers, have two mechs that are great for shoving folks around. To even the playing field, you’ll have to take advantage of positioning. That’ll get you through the first couple levels, but pretty soon it’ll be clear that your three measly mechs will get outnumbered. Your first instinct in Into the Breach may be to run around, punching and shooting everything to death. To that end, if you have to choose between a mech taking damage and a building, always choose the mech. This power grid persists from level to level, unlike your mech health, which always resets. Run out of power grid bars, and it’s game over.
Every time an enemy takes one out, you’ll lose one bar of your power grid.
It may not be immediately clear when you start Into the Breach, but the buildings scattered around each of the maps are essentially your life. But here’s some good news once again! We’re here to help you through your beginning hours so you can get a handle on the basics and crush the Vek spawn into oblivion. Bad news: It’s still super freakin’ hard. Good news: It’s way easier to understand than FTL. The creators of FTL have launched their next game: Into the Breach.
