Navigating through *Citizen Sleeper 2*, you're bound to encounter moments where your dice take a hit. In this comprehensive guide, we'll delve into the mechanics of repairing these crucial game elements, ensuring you're always ready to roll with confidence.
Why Dice Break in Citizen Sleeper 2
In *Citizen Sleeper 2*, the primary culprit behind your dice breaking is Stress. As you progress, you'll find that failing actions or entering a "Starving" state can pile on the stress. The more stressed you are, the higher the likelihood of your dice fracturing. Each die can withstand three hits before it needs to be repaired, so managing stress is key to maintaining your dice's integrity.
How to Repair Dice in Citizen Sleeper 2
Early in the game, while you're on Hexport, you might experience dice breaking, but you won't be able to fix them until you reach Far Spindle. Here, you'll encounter a character named Bliss, who will unlock the Rig Workshop on your ship. When you're not on a Contract, you can head to the Rig Workshop to repair your dice. You'll have two repair options at your disposal: Improvised Repairs and Dice Repair.
What’s the Difference Between Improvised Repairs and Dice Repair
Opting for Improvised Repair will cost you 2 Scrap Components. This method will mend one of your dice, but it comes with a downside: it increases your Glitch meter, raising the risk of ending up with a glitched die.
On the flip side, Dice Repair requires 1 Rare Component, which are harder to come by. However, this method adds less to the Glitch meter, making it the preferable choice if you can afford it. While I found Improvised Repair manageable throughout the game, by the end of *Citizen Sleeper 2*, acquiring Rare Components becomes much easier, so there's no need to be overly conservative with them.
Can You Repair Glitched Dice?
Glitched dice, which you might encounter depending on your difficulty setting, come with a 20 percent chance of a positive outcome and an 80 percent chance of a negative one. While the game doesn't offer a direct method to repair these, certain story developments, particularly after the "Diagnose Your Frame" drive, can repair a single glitched die. So, even if you end up with a glitched die, there's still hope for recovery.
And that's the complete rundown on how to repair dice in *Citizen Sleeper 2*. Keep these tips in mind to ensure your dice are always in top shape, ready to roll when you need them most.
