SAROS is a difficult game, but it rewards careful movement and skillful use of the Soltari Shield. Make sure you are jumping and dashing to avoid projectiles, and absorbing Standard Projectiles with the Shield to fully utilize your Power Weapons.
If this is still too challenging, try starting a run from an earlier Biome. By playing through multiple Biomes in a row before getting to place at which you are stuck, you can accumulate higher-level weapons, more Artifacts, and more Growth Attributes to help you push past a difficult section.
If you need extra help to progress in the game, you can find a selection in the options to disable the balance limit on the Carcosan Modifiers:
- Press the “Options” button
- Navigate to “Settings”
- Navigate down to “Unlimited Protection Modifiers” and turn it on
You will now be able to use as many protections as you want without needing to balance the meter.
