    Completing the Drifter in Risk of Rain 2: Alloyed Collective

    The Drifter is one of two new Survivors introduced in the third DLC for Risk of Rain 2, called Alloyed Collective. She returns from Risk of Rain Returns and uses her bag of items to adapt to different situations, pulling out temporary supplies for short bursts of power.

    The Drifter has some of the most distinctive abilities in the game, making her a fun character to play. However, you’ll need to unlock her first. Below is a guide on how to complete the challenge called Lost in Transit, which is required to unlock the Drifter.

    ### How to Complete Lost in Transit

    To unlock the Drifter, start by reaching Conduit Canyon using an Access Node. These objects are usually found in third-stage maps, especially in the Alloyed Collective map called Iron Alluvium.

    The Access Node looks like a blinking red bomb, but it’s not dangerous. Interacting with it will cause a Virtual Portal to appear after you finish the Teleporter Event on the current map.

    The Virtual Portal transports you to Conduit Canyon. Here, you need to collect Security Keys to open the door leading to the Teleporter, then defeat the boss called the Alloy Hunter. After defeating the boss, use the Teleporter to be taken to Solutional Haunt.

    Solutional Haunt is a boss map where you’ll face Solus Wing. Keep these points in mind during the fight: hit its three weak points for big damage, and avoid or destroy the heat units that appear—standing near cooling units can help you avoid the heatwave effects.

    Once you’ve defeated Solus Wing, two doors will open leading to different caves. One contains the TC-280 Drone, but the other is more important. Inside, you’ll find two Solus Coffers, each holding a Prison Matrix. Be sure to open and collect both.

    With both Prison Matrices in hand, go back to the main arena and locate the console in front of a locked door. Use one Prison Matrix to open it and access the secret vault inside Solutional Haunt.

    In the vault, you’ll find a broken HAN-D model, the Drifter’s Backpack, some chests, and the prison holding the Drifter. Use the second Prison Matrix to unlock her prison, and she will then be added as a playable survivor.

    How to Play as Operator: Completing & Solving in Risk of Rain 2

    Risk of Rain 2 has built up a diverse lineup of characters, or classes, over the years. The Alloyed Collective expansion introduced new classes, including the Operative. This class plays quite differently from the others and can be challenging to master. If misused, the Operative can struggle early on, often leading to an unsuccessful run.

    However, when used skillfully, the Operative can go very far. Success requires changing your playstyle to highlight the Operative’s strengths, which will differ significantly from most other classes.

    Operator Class Skills

    The Operative’s abilities focus mainly on movement and drones.

    Drone Tech

    The Operative begins each run with two drones, which you can choose in the Loadouts section. By default, they are:

    • Gunner Drone Mk 2, which damages enemies.
    • Healing Drone Mk 2, which restores your health.

    This is your primary attack. It fires a shot that, if it kills an enemy, ricochets to other nearby enemies. This makes it great for clearing groups of minions with a single shot. The damage of this attack increases the longer it’s been since last fired, up to a maximum of three charge dots near your crosshair. Firing with a full charge deals much more damage than rapid shots, though rapid fire can sometimes be better against tougher foes like bosses.

    ADMIN-OVERRIDE

    This ability makes your drone use its special skill, which varies depending on the drone type. Each drone offers unique effects besides its default attack. Using this ability rotates a drone in your toolbar, showing which drone is ready to activate and which is up next. You can activate multiple drones in quick succession before the cooldown resets.

    Every drone you deploy during a run is utilized by this skill.

    Ascent Protocol

    This skill launches you into the air, helping you cover vertical and horizontal distances that are normally impossible. It contributes to making the Operative extremely mobile and can be used strategically to avoid dangerous attacks. Furthermore, you can leap between drones while airborne, which helps maximize drone deployment throughout a run.

    Ejection Core

    This ability throws a drone ahead, which lifts enemies into the air and interrupts their attack. It also temporarily causes enemies to take more damage from skills. This is useful for controlling groups and disrupting boss patterns.

    How to Play the Operator

    Drones play a major role in the Operative’s gameplay. Managing their positioning and timing is key to success. Players should manipulate situations to maximize drone effectiveness, especially in tight spaces that limit movement. Since AoE attacks can damage both you and your drones, it’s better to avoid crowded areas where your movement and drone deployment are restricted.

    Using the Ascend Protocol to leap into the air provides crucial mobility, allowing you to dodge attacks and attack enemies from above. Staying aware of your environment helps you maintain drone control and prevent getting cornered.

    For higher-health enemies, targeting nearby low-health minions with a charged shot can be smarter. Eliminating these minions causes a ricochet into the stronger enemy while also clearing weaker foes around them, maintaining pressure on challenging bosses and groups.
