SteamWorld Heist II: Atomic city map

Epic Swag: 12 Fragments
Swag: 6 bags
Hats: Atomic Helm, Graduate Hat (Rare), Delectable Cone, Mimic Mask, Jellyfish (Rare)
Objectives: Find the Control Room
Bonus objective: N/A

Tips & Tricks: Your first big introduction encounter with the Atomics faction! You'll be fighting these guys for a while, so take note of the "revive next turn if still tethered" mechanic closely. Classes and abilities that kill multiple enemies in 1 turn are absolutely golden for the rest of this zone.

After you find the Control Room, the doors will lock and a defense will begin for several turns. The Epic Swag can be found in a safe room next to the console right at the very end.

Hats: Atomic Helm, Graduate Hat (Rare), Delectable Cone, Mimic Mask, Jellyfish (Rare), Crystal Crown, Marvin's Helmet (Rare)
Objectives: Get the Epic Swag before it Rusts!
Bonus objective: N/A

Tips & Tricks: Another race against time! Against the Atomics faction this can get pretty hairy, especially if you can't scrap all the tethered enemies in a single turn. Reapers, Boomers, and Engineers are your best bet for clearing out multiple enemies handily.

Tons of Atomic Rust on the ground too, so the "Light Step" ability from level 4 Flanker will be useful here AND for the rest of the zone.

Epic Swag: InstaBlast Grenade (Rare Auxiliary Weapon - Tier 6)
Swag: 9 bags
Hats: Atomic Helm, Graduate Hat (Rare), Delectable Cone, Mimic Mask, Jellyfish (Rare), Crystal Crown, Marvin's Helmet (Rare), Octopus (Rare)
Objectives: Gather your crew
Bonus objective: N/A

Tips & Tricks: Your crew will be split into 2 teams here. Slot 1 and 2 are on the left side, and slot 3 and 4 are on the right side. Be sure to pair each 2 crewmates well so they cover each others weaknesses!

Epic Swag: Sushi Sidearm (Rare Auxiliary Weapon - Tier 6)
Swag: 8 bags
Hats: Atomic Helm, Graduate Hat (Rare), Delectable Cone, Mimic Mask, Jellyfish (Rare), Crystal Crown, Marvin's Helmet (Rare), Octopus (Rare)
Objectives: Scrap Walking Bombs
Bonus objective: Scrap 5 Walking Bombs in one turn

Tips & Tricks: There are a LOT of explosive regenerating barrels on this map, don't forget about them as they're massive workhorses for clearing the amount of enemies on this map. If you haven't unlocked it and utilized it already, the level 4 Reaper ability "Harvest" does MASSIVE work on this mission. The Epic Swag can be found at the very end of the stage behind a green door.

Epic Swag: Random Atomic Weapon
Swag: 7 bags
Hats: Atomic Helm, Graduate Hat (Rare), Delectable Cone, Mimic Mask, Jellyfish (Rare), Crystal Crown, Marvin's Helmet (Rare), Octopus (Rare)
Objectives: Find a way to disable the Revival Emitters
Bonus objective: Destroy all Revival Emitters in a single turn

Tips & Tricks: Ignore the sphere at the beginning and turn your eyes to the bottom of the stage. High jumps work wonders here, as well as Beacon's Scram (teleport) ability. The revival emitters will become vulnerable after you activate the 2 consoles at the bottom left and right of the map.

Guns: N/A
Utility items: Cooler Unit [500](Rare Special Item - Tier 4), Super Aura Booster [600](Rare Stats Item - Tier 5), Sonic Boots [1100](Rare Stats Item - Tier 6), Titanium Alloy [1500](Rare Stats Item - Tier 6)
Sub Equipment: Torpedo Damage II [300](Sub Equipment - Tier 6), Charge Laser II [700](Sub Equipment - Tier 6), Engine Booster III [600](Sub Equipment - Tier 6)
Misc: 20 Fragments [2000]

Tips & Tricks: How DID Aggie get down here...?

Epic Swag: Random Atomic Weapon
Swag: 5 bags
Hats: Atomic Helm, Graduate Hat (Rare), Delectable Cone, Mimic Mask, Jellyfish (Rare), Crystal Crown, Marvin's Helmet (Rare), Octopus (Rare)
Objectives: Activate Consoles
Bonus objective: Activate both consoles on the same turn

Tips & Tricks: Another "split up the team" mission, but this time you can choose which crew go in which direction. One of the easier missions in this zone, if you want to use it for farming of any kind.

Epic Swag: 15 Fragments
Swag: 9 bags
Hats: Atomic Helm, Graduate Hat (Rare), Delectable Cone, Mimic Mask, Jellyfish (Rare), Crystal Crown, Marvin's Helmet (Rare), Octopus (Rare)
Objectives: Investigate Vault A, Investigate Vault B, Investigate Vault C, Scrap the Sphere
Bonus objective: N/A

Tips & Tricks: The alarm ticks down fast, so it may be worth splitting up into 2 teams to investigate the 3 vaults. When you finish investigating all 3, you'll gather your crew for the last room and the doors will lock behind you - this can be supremely useful if you've got a ton of enemies chasing you down (since you can just outrun and ignore them) When the last door opens, the objective will change to "Scrap the Sphere".

Tips & Tricks: The titular "Infinite King" is basically just 7 soldiers all linked together! Looks intimidating, but you can totally do this on the first turn. Bring the level 4 Reaper ability "Harvest" to make this a cakewalk.

I managed to do it solo with a single bot: Chimney as an Engineer /w "Perfect Aim", "Harvest", (shoot again after kill) & "Double Down" (shoot twice). She didn't even have to move from the beginning of the stage! By far the easiest stage to farm if you're prepared.

Epic Swag: Random Atomic Weapon
Swag: 4 bags
Hats: Atomic Helm, Graduate Hat (Rare), Delectable Cone, Mimic Mask, Jellyfish (Rare), Crystal Crown, Marvin's Helmet (Rare), Octopus (Rare)
Objectives: Scrap All Spheres
Bonus objective: N/A

Tips & Tricks: This one's a toughie! You'll need to scrap 3 spheres, of which an array of diamond walls will rotate between them, blocking your shots. All the while enemies are swarming in, and every time you scrap a sphere, the alarm level is guaranteed to go up by 1! (e.g. by the end it will be critical alarm guaranteed)

Bring your A game here, as you need every strategy you can get your hands on.

Epic Swag: The Kraken Horn (Key Item)
Swag: N/A
Hats: Band of Icy Revenge (Unique), Crown of Reckoning (Unique)
Objectives: Scrap Imperator Primus, Scrap Keeper Custos
Bonus objective: N/A

Tips & Tricks: The floor's gonna be an absolute mess fighting these two guys. If you don't already have the level 4 Flanker ability "Light Step" to ignore all the baloney on the ground, it's gonna be rough!

An extremely effective strategy is to combine the class Engineer and an Atomic Handgun with the abilities "Harvest" (level 4 Reaper), "Penetrator" (level 5 Flanker), "Loose Cannon" (level 5 Boomer) and all the damage boosts you can get. Then start "Harvest"-ing the enemies that spawn in; this way you can get up to 20-30 extra individual shots to blow away the bosses almost solo!

Once you scrap one of them, you'll get a level 2 alarm immediately; so don't rest on your laurels just yet! You're better off weakening the both of them at the same time so you can manage the additional enemies flooding in while you fight.

Objectives: Scrap the Kraken!
Bonus objective: N/A

Tips & Tricks: For the fight on the World Map on your submarine, just go HAM on torpedoes and torpedo damage, and you should be relatively fine. Once the mission begins, first of all, good luck! This one's gonna be a marathon.

Just like the previous mission, the level 4 Flanker ability "Light Step" to ignore ground effects will be extremely useful here. Stacking as many damage abilities as possible and cooldown reduction is also the key to victory. Use everything you have at your disposal! Halfway through, Captain Leeway will show up (with a steadier arm this time) and extremely powerful teamwide buffs.
