Don't use the Sacrifice Artifact on the first run, it won't work (All the various types of bugs should be fixed now with the latest update hopefully)

Please note: If you fight the robot whilst you have the prophets cape, when he tries to take the cape there will be a code error and you will crash. This is caused by there not being a model for his boss variant wearing the cape. If this crash happens, you need to completely restart the entire process. I found this out after 2 hours of searching for them and was not happy.

this guy's unlock condition sounds like a playground rumor i'm saying this as somebody who has robomando

Honestly, I'm glad I got spoiled of this because I would have NEVER found out about it on my own lol I found the battery but didn't find where to use it

if you dont have mobility to get out of the top of the ship, you can also leave through the cabin section that you unlock with a keycard

One thing I'll add to this, if you finish the game as Robomando, the ending song will be changed to a kinda funny upbeat track. Instead of the vocal track for coalescence.

I JUST finished following someone else's guide to this and unlocking him, (as well as trying him out lol) and I spent at least 5 minutes listening to the BANGER track the Golems are listening to down there. Like seriously, if you're doing this secret, chill with the golems for a few minutes. The tune goes SO hard and I can't wait til someone uploads it.

I had to do this twice because I was playing Drifter and in the middle of the little easter egg fight I kinda wanted to mess around and see if he could be beaten, so I spawned some temp items in the middle of the fight and one of them must have been the cape because my game crashed without granting me the unlock.

Robomando is such a funny little guy I love him. He’s so small he has to jump to reach a lot of the ladders on the contact light

I'm part of the team that discovered and tested the method of unlocking! Glad to see the community enjoying Minimando As a side note: You can do either the battery or the robot spawn run with artifacts active (except sacrifice because that would prevent robot from spawning) and you can change the rules so you can deal 200% damage and enemies do 10% to you, it makes this so much easier for those who are struggling with the difficulty but want to unlock Robomando ^^

You don’t have to go on top of the ship, you can go through the Cabin area if you have a keycard

A helpful tip is that if you ever die during the second run (not on drizzle), then you'll have to do the first run all over again on drizzle since you'll have to insert the strange battery into the chest again. Also, robomando doesn't spawn on all map variants.

To find the boombox room, you can also go to the cabin, go to the right, drop off the map while moving left and youll get to the room.

I'm actually more curious if anyone chronicled how the community worked to solve robomando instead of learning how to do it myself. I find the process of uncovering secrets more fascinating than the secret itself but its daunting to have to sift through kilometers of theorycrafting scrolls to find the whole story.

Get the game here cus it's cool AND fun - bit.ly/rorr

I love dying right before the fourth stage.

Note that you can also access the path to the golem room from the cabin

Don't run on the outside of the ship in step two, jsut find a keycard in the left part of the ship and unlock the lower right door. what you want is right outside the window. ez

Wow, I had found the the mini commando location by accident then. But I thought the battery would have come from the drop pod like in ror2. Guess I gotta go unlock the little guy no. Thanks for the video!

Made a guide for this just a little bit ago, great work on the video!!

wouldn't have stood unfound for a long time at all, but 22 minutes is kind of insane to have known. I figured out the battery + bottom of launchship part almost immediately passively playing the game (10 hours+)

I see a lot of potential in it as a drone playthrough character? Basically no matter how expensive the drones get to repair you can revive them I think Only problem so far is I rarely seem to be finding drones, and better hope they don't die out of bounds or something.

Good thing to mention is that the Robomando can spawn in any place of the map, not just close to the teleporter.

This is such a cool secret, but really frustrating. Did the challenge and the game crashed right as I died even though I didn't have the cape. What's funny is that I had other challenges that I completed in the same run that saved, but robo didn't.

Oh My, the way You unlock him... It's like one of the characters in the Starstorm mod :0

I freaked out because you made it look like you spawn where you find robomando and I thought I'd messed up but I had a look around the stage and found him.

i found the battery and the chest on my 3rd winning run and mange to first put a normal equipment first then understood what the chest did but figuring out to go to stage on 22 mins i would have never walked into that

Time to channel my inner Edna Mode “NO CAPES!”

First, when I heard about there being secret survivor, I thought to myself "yeah, I could find it myself, no need to rush things". And now after unlocking every achievement, here I stand looking at this guide. I would've never gotten it, since I don't play on Drizzle. Goddam. I guess sometimes you gotta suck a little...

I never would have found this on my own. Thanks for the video!

straight and to the point. Thank you

You can use the command artifact to make this a little easier as you can control what items you get. Obviously, you still gotta get battery and do the rest of it the usual way.

DUDE. I went under the light out of curiosity and found he golems which i was thoroughly charmed by and then saw the chest so i was like ooh cool secret, I killed providence started another run and found the chest on a stage which gave me back my Thquibs and i felt very disspointed, I did so much of this with no idea of it's existence

Wish he had some alt abilities or skins, but still a cool secret!

Worked great thanks.

I found the battery and knew there was some secret probably too it but i would have never figured this out

Funny quirky run idea: Captain's Brooch Beating Embryo Rapid Mitosis Robomando Infinite free items

Welp now I know what I'm spending my weekend doing

I followed this exactly and got the battery to stage 3, used the teleporter after 22 minutes but before 23 minutes and got sent to the magma barracks :T

This is hilariously awesome, I've gotta do this.

I just did this an hour ago and it took forever cuz i had a cape😥😥😥

So happy to hear the boombox golems have returned.

HOW HE SHOOTING LIKE THAT!??!!

Ive done this twice now and bugged both times play on drizzle, get the battery, give it to the chest behind the robots, start a new run on rainstorm, get the battery from the chest on stage 2, beat the stage 3 tp boss, wait for the timer to be between 22:01 and 22:59 (ive gone around 22:10 both times), finally I use the teleporter, and i spawn normally in the stage. (I didnt get magma caverns either time)

iam just disapointted that its just a smaller version of the commando, could have been a diffrent kinda of looking robot.

The fact that I had a run randomly with the battery, found the secret area under the Contact Light but just did nothing with the box or anything because I thought it was nothing but an easter egg bruh...

THIS IS SO FRIGGGIN COOL!!!! THANK YOU CAP!!!! YOU DA BEST!!

When I first played risk of rain returns I done step 1 and 2 by accident so I guess I'll have to finish the rest of the steps

tried to get this earlier today and died after getting the battery out of the chest on stage 2. now it seems like neither the battery pot on stage 5 or the battery chest on stage 2 will spawn. im probably missing something but it feels like its bugged.

So I found the chest at the Contact Light as well as the interactable that needed the battery on my own, but not the actual battery itself, I can at least say I got somewhat close before looking up wtf to do lol

I have the first two ror games, but returns seems so fun!

So I'm playing on the Switch, and after finishing the teleporter on stage three I waited around until 22:15, with the battery in hand, no artifacts enabled, on rainstorm difficulty, and spawned on the correct stage but not in the space where Robomando is, he was also nowhere to be found anywhere else on the stage. Seems to be some kind of glitch, going to bank the battery in the equipment storage again and start over.

What happens if you die after picking up the battery on your second run, can you still find it or do you need to repeat step one?

I did all the steps, but I couldn’t find the battery on the stage. I checked literally everywhere.

Man day 1 i found the battery and had no clue what to do with it

That character sounds like a pain to play coop with “who took all the chests?”… robocommando with 20 items

I followed every step. I used the battery. I died. The game crashed. I haven't even unlocked the cape yet, and therefore have never gotten it. Why does the universe hate me?

What lead me to looking this up was seeing a battery thing like the little guy but on the lava map. Odd.

Captain's brooch + robomando special = infinite items stage 1

Oh, I did the first part. Yay. But that was 13 runs ago.

2:35 I want to also say if you get the forge level, the game will crash as of 1.0.2 if he is in the lava as well, just learned the hard way

robomando!

I beat my first monsoon run with this guy. He is busted if you rush and find lots of drones. Plus he can go through the contact light stage and get all the items really fast.

I had actually found the chest in Contact Light but didnt know what it was its use (since you can put any active item on it).

waited for 10+ min to get to the 22 min and still got send to the fking magma map

Big for rainglish

DUDE I DID IT AND MY GAME CRASHED, I’m doing it again!!

I KIND HATE THAT I SPOILER MYSLEF BUT GOT THATS FUNNY AF. That Easter egg was almost equivalize to a cod zombies EE

I actually found that chip thing yesterday during a run and grabbed it thinking it would unlock a survivor like what you do for Rex, the plant boi, in RoR2, and I even tried to get out of the contact light so i could explore more. However I didn't have the mobility to get out can't believe I was actually kind of close to finding this naturally.

Attempting to do this… I LOOPED 5 TIMES! I am not ok.

omg I nearly got this one I was just missing the battery. I knew nothing about it

Don't let his amazing seeming skillset fool you-- I played him for 6 minutes before dying and it was painful. A lot of the reason is his primary fire can't be shot in the opposite direction he's running, since it's multiple individual shots, rather than Commando's rapidfire shots. The shift is good for like 2 I-frames, and canceling fall damage. Not useful for mobility at all. The secondary is if you took Commando's and made it only go 2 feet in front of you with very little damage. Honestly, the best ability is his R by a long shot. If anyone beats Monsoon, or even Rainstorm with Robomando, I will be thoroughly impressed. It will probably be harder to beat the game with Robomando than attempting an all artifact run with any other character.

“don’t watch until later if u don’t want to be spoiled” i’m sorry there was a 0% chance i was figuring that out on my own idc if i got spoiled 😭😭

so after doing this it seems it isnt guaranteed you get sent to the exact place you need to be, just look for it in a secret area on the map and you can unlock him

I kept finding this battery thing on accident, the robomando, and I couldn't figure out how to get the battery to power him on. Thx for this video tho, I can now find it ^^ (is there any particular class or can all of them do it?)

robomando is a cool character

Just unlocked him! thanks!!!!

if you die with the battery in the box on step 4. do you have to start over?

my game crashed and I don’t even had the prophets cape

ohhh i remember getting the battery, using it and then changing into another item cause i had the enigma artifact on lmao

god i sure hope they introduce "the chef"in the new dlc

You have to find Robomando, I did this 3 times before watching a different guide and realizing you have to find him. I though you were supposed to spawn in a box with him and have him kill you there, I didnt know you had to find his ass.

Robomando a little boingybouf.

But behind the part where you save your battery into the chest, you can still go on and there's like a glowing hollow stone? Do you know anything about it?

It sent me to magma caverns after waiting at the stage 3 tp, unfortunately never found him. Seems like I'll have to retry the process again sometime 😭

Note:the chest only spawn in Meadow and the robomando corpse can only found in the Core P/s:why they have to put RNG on everything

ive done this 3 times to a T and nothing. perfect 22 min timing. With and without command artifacts. battery at stage 2 always. I have scoured every inch of each map. and 3 times now he has not appeared. What the hell.

Okay, I get the key and do all the steps but my level is different then yours (I know that happens) so I’m looking for the guy to put the battery in and 2 times I haven’t found him. What the heck lol. I couldn’t find him on the hive level or the lava one.

The fact that I got robomando before the 3 secret bosses huntress challenge says something

If you die after getting the battery in your second run do you have to start the easter egg over again?

I complete up to step 3 and died trying to do step four but when i went back to do step one again i never found the battery it was gone. So i thought i didnt need to do it again so i went to step 3 again and now i cant find the case someone help me

Yesterday I played with a rando and locked in this secret character. He got really mad cuz he thought I was hacking and had found some shit in the gamefiles

Im sad I got spoiled to who the survivor was because of someone else’s thumbnail, regardless though this secret is hilarious

Can the chest be in a different location? Chest doesn't show on final stage, does it break if you loop?

How do you know from the game (and not analyzing game data) about the 22:00 and 22:59 timer on this specific stage. Is there reference to it somewhere?

Glitch happened to me even though I did NOT have the scarf item so idk what to do now 😢

If you die during the rainstorm steps do you have to start over pr will the battery still be in the box on stage 2?

No matter what I do I can't seem to find the battery on stage 5. Any tips to help my find the vase holding it?

hpw do i get the health bar and skill's cd on top of my head? couldnt find in the settings

Someone should share the save file entry for this
