Starting tips

Starting a game isn't always easy. The goal of the following tips is to help you get a better start and to learn more about the Atlas system.

1. Always check an enemy's weak points - The game provides you information about a new enemy whenever you encounter one. The most important part is its weaknesses to various weapon types. Pay extra attention to this information.
2. Explore every location carefully - The planets have multiple locations that are divided into a few types. Being part of a certain group means that you will find items from the same category. The short note on the map informs you what you can find in a given location - simply move your cursor over it.
3. Use environment objects during combat - Locations can feature exploding containers. Shoot them to cause either a frost or heat explosion. Besides regular damage, your enemy will also receive other negative effects (they need to stand on the stain created by the explosion).
4. Use combinations of attacks - A good way of increasing your firepower is to use the right combinations. Thermal shock works great at the beginning of the game. An overheated or frozen enemy attacked with the opposite element will receive a lot of damage. This is especially useful when you are fighting with the Cyclops.
5. Be on good terms with the Observatories - Observatories are facilities located on every planet. Their goal is to scan the nearby terrains. Start cooperating with them and you will be able to use their data to reveal all hidden parts of the map that are within the Observatory's radius.
6. Don't try to explore the entire map in one go - The game adds all the available locations on your map upon your first landing on a given planet. However, not all of them are suited for low-level characters. Move your cursor over a location that interests you to learn its recommended level.
