Awesome thank you so much this is super helpful!! I think the only other question I forgot is whether there is a way to trigger the little green healing orbs that randomly show up when I kill some enemies, or are they totally random?

Yes, it's happened twice today. Didn't happen before.

Also since today if I exit the game just for a single moment (ie because I clicked on the advert when actually trying to close it) the game restarts and I have to reload from a previous screen. This didn't happen before either. It's annoying for Winston or the extra wheel which require to watch an advert that might get you out the game.

They are random drops. But you can get a relic piece (Whale Flukes) that increases their effectiveness.

This just happened to me and it's infuriating. Some of the ads don't even have a way to exit out of them except to go to the home page and it's acting like I didn't watch it and ending my run. I was literally on the last part of the chapter I'm on and went to revive and that happened to me so I wasted a revive scroll and probably won't be able to do it again. If it keeps happening I'm going to uninstall.

It seems to be solved today. Fingers crossed.

I've started to play the Netflix version of the game, and I must say, I enjoy it more - at least for kow.

This version is completely ad-free and completely MTX-free. While this makes levelling up a bit more tedious, they often grant you things you would have to watch an ad for (like reviving, etc) for free.

I wouldn't have spent real money on lootboxes anyway, so not being ushered to pay for better gear is a welcome change.

This of course makes the game way more grindy, as you need to spend your gems wisely.

I deleted the app, nothing much changed and it got boring tbh.

Edit

Also another article is taking about the micro transactions calling it predatory.

While we do have a Netflix version it still contains a lot of the same transitions and currencies found in the original version.

Hello everyone. Just started Tomb Raider Reloaded and it's been a pleasant experience so far. I just have some questions (playing the Netflix version if it matters):

1) How do you obtain relic pieces? I'm in chapter 6 and still have to drop another one than the one given to the player in the tutorial (whale head).

2) How do you obtain bomber and winter parka suit pieces? Navigating the menus, the only places to get them is from some milestones, but they don't add up to 100 to unlock the suit.

Hi,
I'm also playing the Netflix version and I have the same issues.

ad 1)
The help states that "later chapters provide a higher chance of discovering relic pieces during puzzle stages", but so far I didn't have any luck.
I'm currently at Tomb of Qualopec and I've replayed all the stages up to this quite often now - and yet the puzzle stages only yield shards. I'm considering this bugged for now.

ad 2)
I assume the remaining outfit pieces drop from lootboxes or during normal gameplay.

That said, I really hate the mobile game mechanic of random lootboxing. I wish there was a way to get what you want by playing rather than by just being lucky.
