Always Save Your Strongest Pilot
Into the Breach Beginner Tips
Look, you’re going to die. A lot. Into the Breach isn’t quite as punishing as FTL, but you are most certainly going to fail in a lot of these stages. When this happens, you’ll be given the chance to save one of your three pilots to start a fresh game with. If you’re still early on in the game, you’ll probably only have one option, with your other two mechs being unmanned. But if you’re unfortunate enough to lose about two or three islands in, that decision becomes a little more complicated.
The general rule of thumb is that you should always pick your highest leveled pilot. More likely than not, they’ll have accrued better stats and upgraded abilities by this point, and having them on your team will make your subsequent runs much easier. Try not to get too attached to your weaker pilots as you progress through the game.
