Did somebody leave a chess piece in the back?

Main.C fight has two phases.
In first phase, Main.C use thermal and em cannon with 100% em resistance. So packing thermal & em resist shield/armor together with utility shielding can help you tank it for extended period of time and bait it to wherever you like.
Second phase is the problem, not from the machine gun wielding 75% thermal resist main.c, but due to the event it triggered. You will be under some kind of time pressure. So you may want to plan ahead before triggering phase two.
Some extra help: Opening seals on the floor may provide some distractions, if baiting main.c out of its throne is the plan; Helping A7 will give a hack code to slow main.c down, Helping Zhirov will allow skipping phase two.

Fighting golems wasn’t worth in my opinion. They don’t drop conventional loots after all. If you are after the score, just expose the golem chamber and trigger the wall opening then get out ASAP.

@Joshua: Regarding to the Archives event, would you suggest the link of twitch or seed name? I have been bashing my head in that regard.

@Laida:I have yet to "Destroyed Hostile Zhirov", so this is just my guessing. Did you happen to carry a pod, bring along an exoskeleton or had a core reset?

For other players that may check here for clues, I need to make a correction for my last reply.

I was wrong, Data Miner did take part in something big, which solve my lab problem.

Thank you all.
After a few runs, just figured I could handle the story progression with more systematic approach…

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

by looking at how many lore entries I missed. It turns out Data Miner and Zion Imprinter don’t have much story involved. Warlord and Zhirov are the two who require commitment for story development. I guess those plots would be siding with each of them till boss fight and screwing them up at different stages.
I have a few new questions.
How many different endings are there? I guess the score sheet is named after win conditions. I got w0, w1+ and w3 so far. How can I achieve others?
I am missing a lot of lore dialogues under Revision 17’s above Warlord’s. How can I get those?
How to decrypt terminals in Hidden Lab?
What is the effect of destroying Wave Inhibitor on Command floor?

Thank you very much

General Discussion / [SPOILER] Questions about story progression

I got frustrated in testing out plots combination against rng. And I am confused of plot elements with those mere score-attacks.
Would experience players kindly point me the right combination regarding the following storyline? Please include clear directions if possible.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Zion:
After imprinting in Zion (which excluded Warlord’s plot), what should I do next to continue their storyline? Am I supposed to something special in DeepMines? I’ve been in DeepMines, only finding entrance back to Factory. Am I missing something or not supposed to go in DeepMines? Where should the code \\ZION be used? Did using O8’s code make or break story progression? How to use Self-destruct Interrupter?
DataMiner:
Does DataMiner has a storyline? Where should the GodMode code be used? In Warlord’s base, Research or somewhere else? Is the code \\IAMDERELICT merely provide alternated exit?
Warlord:
After meeting Warlord without getting Zion imprinting, I met him once again on Research floor. What should I do next to continue his plot? I made a mistake in meeting Warlord after Zion imprinting, only to find out can’t do anything to MAIN.C on Command. Will complying with Warlord make any difference? Or I am just lacking damage?
Zhirov:
Zhirov’s terminal mentioned three things, Sigix pod, SGEMP and ArmoryLab. It seems the seed is preventing me to do all three in one go. Which route should I take to do all three? If I’m not supposed to, which one is needed to progress Zhirov story? If I bring SGEMP to Access, Zhirov would appear on Access but warp out on Command. What should I do next?
Sigix:
I’ve kind of finished Sigix’s plot, unless I missed something. Take CoreReset, bring Pod from Quarantine, activate Exoskeleton on Section7, escape with different ending, yeah!
Others:
Is Hub_04(d) merely score attack? or necessary in fighting MAIN.C?
Does Query() affect map generation?
What to do with Signal Generator?
Where can I find the Zio. line of weapon?
Does blowing up cooling machine on some floor serve story wise purpose or just a floor only evacuation mechanics.
