Elaaden Vault really really sucks.

I hated Kadara's vault so much that I forgot Elaaden's was also pretty annoying. It was a rude awakening when I returned there for a second playthrough.

The Voeld Vault is Disgusting. This hazard is pretty annoying.

Voeld. Voeld just wrecked me my first time.

Are you guy's playing on console's?

If you've entered the console area at the wrong end enemies will spawn but not trigger the console.

Also avoid knocking people off ledges they get stuck and you can't progress till they die = restart.

I don't know If it was a bug but I didn't have hazard in my first and third playthrough in Voeld's Vault, only in my second play. I don't know why :S

Edit: I remember doing all the missions and tasks on this planet before the vault, maybe it does something? In my second playthrough the vault was the first thing I did

Funny thing, I really came to love the vaults except I felt they could have done more with them and toned down the annoying sodoku shit. How many times I jetpacked into the toxic water is beyond me. But I felt like they had so much potential to be so much more fun. In general, I really did like them though. I don't remember which was elaaden or kadara but I do remember having more of a challenge in them. Puzzle bullshit IIRC? Once I saw more than a few consoles, after all the sodoku crap, I just looked it up online. If I want puzzles, I will play a puzzle game.

The  voeld  one pissed me off at first as well, until I realized I had  to keep hitting  that console to get the shield boost then jet the fuck  around to light everything else up. I found it to be the worse on the left side. The right for some reason didn't hit me as hard. I think they might have just designed  it that way to dick with us. Just have  to remember to watch your shields  then if the shield up is  red, hit the  console to change it. The red ones screw with shields (I thought someone has said  something  about health by I only notice my  shield getting borked.) The blue color is  a shield boost/shield recovery. For voeld you really have  to have  them all set  to that or keep setting them to that which is a PITA.

Voeld Vault is fucking trivial.


That'd be Inloltrator.


It's a correct order affair, if I remember correctly. Might not be, it's pretty hazy and I'm a bit far out to do a repeat of Elaaden right now.

Yes that one is royal pain. I got stuck there in my first playthrough and had to replay the whole thing.

Are you sure you have all the consoles activated? They are spread out and there was one up high I missed. Use the scanner to look for the faint blue beams of light pointing at the door and follow where it's coming from on the other side of the area.

I hated Voeld's vault more due to it being the only vault, that the hazard effecting the planet, was also in the vault. Then again I found it annoying the entire time I was doing quests since, even though, I finished the vault, before doing any other quests on the planet, it didn't end SAM's constant repeating that I was entering/leaving a safe area. On the other planets that had a noticeable hazard, finishing the vault will fix the hazerd over time, but not on Voeld ><

While the inconsistencies between the vaults is awkward like the temperature, etc., the part that annoys me most, is the game design choice of limiting manual and quick saves in many areas. The very places you know you want to make a save but can't. Plus, initially I would have liked to go back and explore the vaults to see what I missed. Mostly it seems something you're stuck with doing and might want to skip.

MY OCD DEMANDS IT!
