The latest update for Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, Patch 2 Hotfix 1, brings a series of targeted improvements aimed at refining the overall gameplay experience. Several achievements have been corrected to ensure proper completion tracking, including “Unreasonable Uptime” and “Undercooked,” both of which were previously not triggering as intended. Mission goals have also been streamlined, with clearer parameters for B0b-33 activations and fuel conditions.
Alongside these fixes, the update introduces key balance adjustments. The Elimination Gate 2 mutator has been reworked, offering improved XP gains and health bonuses, while the Voltaic Stun Sweeper receives a notable damage increase. The Breach Cutter also gains the [Lasting] tag, enhancing its overall performance and flexibility in combat.
