Saros players need to learn ASAP what to prioritize in each race

The difference between a good run and a bad run Saros It comes down to priorities, and the sooner players figure out where to prioritize their in-run upgrades, the sooner they'll have more good ones and fewer bad ones. Of course, it depends on what the players want in a certain run Saros.

When delving into one Saros' In many biomes, players need to quickly decide why they are there: do they want to end the biome and disappear? Do they want to collect a bunch of Lunecite and upgrade it to the Armor Matrix Saros? Are they just exploring, or returning for a certain cleaning? The good news is that my priority list, developed after spending a lot of time in the game over the past few days, is only slightly different for one type of run. Unless otherwise noted, consider my priority list universal in any race.

Here are all the audio logs and biomes where players can find them on Saros.

Service Run Upgrade Priority List

Artifacts

Yes, if your first move in a Saros Run is meant to maximize your artifacts, then I think you're minimizing your run chances. Once I established this priority list, I found myself improving each run – even easier than the Carcassonne upgrades Saros. The reason this works is that it ensures the hero Arjuna has an advantage for the next run while buffing key components of the current run, both in equal amounts.

Now, it should be noted Saros Often forcing players to choose between two upgrades: two artifacts, two guns, and so on. In that case, it is best to race at the micro level, but this priority list is best applied. While two artifacts are the ultimate priority, for example, be sure to pick one up if it fits, no matter how early Saros Chakra is you. But if it's a choice between your favorite artifact and Halcyon, always go Halcyon.

1. Halcyon first, always

While most permanent upgrades are unlocked with Lunasite, some of the best upgrades are locked behind Halcion, but Halcion has two limitations players should be aware of. First, there is a limited number of Halcyon at most Saros biomes, and it's possible to go through an entire run without seeing any Halcyon. Because of those two details, choose Halcyon first to ensure your long-term growth is on track, no matter how attractive the other option.

2. Attribute Enhancers

Halcyon's second attribute is Enhancers, which should be chosen over anything other than Halcyon. The logic here is also quite simple. Yes, eventually, there are unlocks so enemies drop them and there are many ways to get them, but they are the equivalent of free upgrades. Players are limited to how many artifacts they can carry, and apparently they are limited to one. Saros Main weapon and power weapon, still have no limit on attribute enhancers. Unless it's stacked against Halycon, always go for Attribute Enhancers.

3. Healthmaxing is the goal

Rahul Kohli has been selected Saros' hero so that the looksmaxing will be equal to the healthmaxing needs of its gameplay, I'm sure. But in all seriousness, Saros A game where you don't want to get hit. Unless you're perfect, however, you're going to get hit, so expanding the number of hits you can take, no matter how small, goes a long way. As such, it weaves itself into other options in the game. If it's between two attribute enhancers, always go for Honesty and Health. If it's between health and something lower on this list, always go for health. It will drastically change how long you live Saros.

If your goal in racing is to gain lots of upgrades and levels, then prioritize Drive and Lunasight buffs over healthmaxing.

4. And then it's the gun

Choosing a stronger gun is, if I had to guess, where there are more Saros Goes wrong on purpose. When it comes to two guns, superior power isn't always the defining factor. If anything, I'd say the weapon progression throughout the game is one of its weakest points because nothing really tops the Smart Rifles and Eruptor Hand Cannons for me. But that's my recommendation: find which gun works best for you, stick to those categories, and only power upgrade between the two. Perk and weapon types should determine which gun you prefer, not raw power, unless* that raw power is the only significant leap.

If the new weapon is inside Saros 10 points is strong, then obviously swap and hope for another gun later. But being comfortable with your weapon should be the goal, while the above should come before the gun.

5. The last priority is artifacts

I know it might sound weird, but I don't care how good this artifact is: it's not more important than having a good gun that's comfortable with you, it's not more important than maximizing your health, it's not more important than free upgrades via attribute enhancers, and it's not more important than Halcyon. Players should only take new artifacts when it's a choice between artifacts, when it's just an artifact, when it's a health artifact (more than #3 guns per priority), and only in those situations. This may seem counterintuitive because these are the most common upgrades, which also means they are the easiest to pick up in a run.

More than that, though it expands as you play SarosYou are limited to the number of artifacts you can carry. Picking up the wrong artifact can lead to a complete run, just as a good selection of artifacts can help defeat a boss. SarosSo pick one up to pick one up—if it doesn't vibe with the gameplay set-up you've created so far, skip it and consider another one.

Have fun!

Saros It's probably my favorite PS5 exclusive game to date, so while I enjoyed figuring out this priority list (and hope it helps), maybe you don't. Maybe you want to vibe-run each level; If so, that's great. The most important priority in any video game is to have fun because if it's not fun, why bother? H/T to Nintendo's Reggie Fils-Aime.
