One of the most notable run-changing features introduced by Starstorm 2 is the event system. As you progress through runs, you'll be challenged by the planet itself as supernatural powers and forces of nature work together to see your swift demise.
All events happen randomly according to their own director, based on run progression. Specific of details of each can be found below:
Storms
Open Details
A storm is approaching..
Storms are randomly occurring events that begin happening after Stage 3. As the skies darken and rain begins to fall, the planet's monsters unrelenting aggression is pushed even further. This is presented in the following buffs:
- +50% movement speed
- +50% attack speed
- +20% base damage
- -20% skill cooldowns
- +20 armor
Surviving a storm is no easy feat, though each monster dropped during the event will drop doubled gold and 150% experience.
Nemesis Invasion
Open Details
You feel an ominous presence...
After acquiring the Condemned Bond from the Void Fields, survivors familiar yet unfamiliar will occasionally appear in your runs, seeming to only have one objective: your defeat! What compels these mysterious survivors? What do they fight for?
Upon defeating a nemesis survivor, they will drop a unique Sibylline-tier item, and will also unlock them as a selectable survivor for future runs. Details on each Sibylline item can be found on the Items page.
Empyrean Invasion
Open Details
Powerful energies begin to harmonize...
The apex of Petrichor V's enchanted monsters - not attuned to one specific element, but to existence itself, as it carries the effects of every other elite monster the planet will throw your way, those being:
- Overloading
- Glacial
- Blazing
- Mending (Requires Survivors of the Void expansion)
- Malachite
- Celestine
- ...and any Tier 1 or Tier 2 Elites added by other mods!
The Empyrean Invasion event spawns a single Empyrean elite enemy on the stage as a boss - while defeating it is not necessary to escape through the teleporter, it is recommended, as Empyrean monsters will drop multiple items, including a heightened chance at an elite aspect! On top of this, the survivor Chirr will be unlocked if not already.
