How To Upgrade Parts in Gundam Breaker 4

Newcomers are often bombarded with the plethora of parts grated after every mission in Gundam Breaker 4, especially as higher level and rare parts start to become common rather early on in the game. Initial abundance may give birth to a mech that looks like a patchwork, but do note that part upgrading is not available initially.

To do that and progress further through the increasingly difficult Main Story, players will have to progress through the story to a certain point. Once the upgrading of parts is unlocked, it will allow players to craft personalized builds that suit their personal playstyle. This guide walks through how to level up parts and increase their rarity in Gundam Breaker 4.

How To Upgrade Part Level And Rarity In Gundam Breaker 4

Unsurprisingly, the False Son - the incredibly powerful new survivor to add into Risk of Rain 2 in the Seekers of the Storm DLC - has a requirement to unlock said character. Here it is in detail:

1. Obtain a Halcyon Seed:

Altar of Gold: Cause an Altar of Gold to spawn in a gold portal after a teleporter event.

Dream Portal: Find the correct dream portal at random while in the Newt Bazaar.

2. Defeat Aurelionite:

When you get the Halcyon Seed, you'll be led to the Gilded Coast. 

Light all seven pillars in the Gilded Coast to remove Aurelionite's shield.

Initiate the attack against him and defeat him.

3. False Son Confrontation:

When Aurelionite is defeated, a green portal will be seen, through which you enter into Prime Meridian.

The False Son will await you.

4. Defeat the False Son:

Fight the False Son with the Halcyon Seed.

Beat him to unlock the False Son for use in the game.

Some false son tips:

Employ Drones: Send out drones to divert the False Son's attention as you look for cover.

Understand Cover: You'll find most of the ground spikes serve effectively against his laser barrages.

Take Advantage of Geode Pillars: These will give you shields and recharge your abilities.

Power Elixirs: Such options as increasing health and taking less damage will be granted to you with these power elixirs.

Avoid Unnecessary Risks: You can get through this by dodging most of his attacks, using abilities where necessary.

Consider Teammates: Playing with other survivors might provide that extra support and distraction.

Additional Tips:

Mobility is Key: The attacks from the False Son are quite hard to dodge; skills or items giving some sort of mobility are a must.

Area-of-Effect Abilities: These can clear out all of the minions the False Son summons and interrupt his attacks at times.

Experimentation is Key: Try different builds for items and skills in search of what works personally.

Do this, add some efficient strategy to the mix, and you should be good to go to unlock False Son and add a powerful new survivor to your Risk of Rain 2 arsenal. Remember, the most important parts are not giving up and being very adaptive in this really challenging boss.
