Mortal Shell 2 Players Find a Clever Way to Retrieve Lost Gloom From Afar
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Mortal Shell 2 players have discovered that using a ranged sidearm to shoot lost Gloom allows for safe retrieval from a distance, completely bypassing dangerous enemies.
Cold Symmetry launched Mortal Shell 2 on August 20, and the community is already sharing brilliant strategies to make tough runs a bit more forgiving. Soulslike games thrive on tension and high stakes, but players have just discovered a useful quality-of-life trick that removes some of the frustration. As spotted on social media by player Ayoehh, you can retrieve your dropped Gloom simply by shooting your sidearm at it from a distance.
When you fall in battle, your hard-earned leveling currency stays right where you died. Usually, running back to grab it means facing the same dangerous enemies that defeated you in the first place. By using a ranged weapon to collect your Gloom, you can bypass hostile mobs entirely and stay safely out of harm's way. This trick even works inside boss arenas, making it a reliable strategy when you lose massive amounts of currency against major encounters.
Mortal Shell 2 follows up on a million-selling predecessor, combining shell abilities, melee combat, and versatile ranged options. Alongside this ranged collection trick, the community is already circulating other useful discoveries, like adjusting camera settings for a wider field of view during tense fights. Publisher Playstack previously reported strong demand, including sold-out physical PS5 editions before launch, and early reviews suggest the sequel successfully builds on the strengths of the original game.
