Game-Breaking Vesper’s Host Bugs While Running Solo

While attempting to run Vesper’s Host solo flawless, I keep running into completely game-breaking bugs, making it impossible to get past 2nd encounter. The bugs ALWAYS start right as I enter the traversal section between 1st and 2nd encounters, in the hallway where the Wretches all rush at you. Here’s a list of some of what I’ve run into: >character and weapon models not loading >weapon perks not functioning at all (heal clip specifically) >picking up nuke cores keeps me in 1st person, or doesn’t show radiation stacks, or will not allow me to dunk >picking up orbs of power does nothing things get MUCH WORSE when entering 2nd encounter >exotic class item perks not functioning, melee kills do not give invis with spirit of assassin >somehow all weapon kills register as melee kills for the spirit of assassin requirement, as all weapon kills would grant invis >cannot use transcendent grenades while transcendent, only have access to regular grenades (and sometimes without the decreased cooldown) >picking up suppressor buff does not allow me to activate the buff using grenade ability, i just keep my actual grenade and have to get the buff off me to try again >Raneiks will sometimes not teleport me after i kill the mini boss, meaning i have to climb up through the middle myself and run through a sea of exploder shanks >abilities not functioning properly, or at all (melees not having proper animation or dealing proper damage, consecration not working at all when inputted) >enemies teleporting all over the arena, and sometimes when they hit me with attacks, i take zero damage >super damage being much less than it should (or, alternatively, i am just bad and did a bad damage phase lol. hard to tell with glacial quake) i’ve tried many solutions including restarting my PS5’s database, clearing the cache, uninstalling and reinstalling, and making sure i haven’t been on the game for too long before making an attempt. i’ve also tried making sure that every ammo brick and other items in the arena are picked up in case that’s causing a crash, to no avail. even if i do wipe, the problem is resolved for a bit, but eventually all the bugs come crawling back. Here’s my loadout that i use for 1st encounter going into 2nd, when the bugs begin: https://dim.gg/7sifvvy/wormguy. I have basically all the strand and glaive artifact mods active, and i usually run with a tonic of brawling & glimmering active, as well as a tome of want. This is what I run during Raneiks: https://dim.gg/65iizlq/Equipped. The bugs are already active at this point though, so if the bugs are loadout related i’d imagine it’d be linked to the original loadout. any and all input would be appreciated, i’d like to try to get this last solo flawless done before edge of fate. i can share videos if needed as well, i’ll just have to go and record some footage.

My entire build for Ecthar is Restoration based survivability and when that doesn’t work I have no way to survive the onslaught of ads reliably.

      Id be curious to see videos. I got my solo flawless last week and have a lot of time in the dungeon and have never encountered any of this. This sounds like memory overload, like something that would happen on an old gen console, but even then idk. Not doubting you just would like to see if you have any examples The only thing I will comment on is the raneiks damage is spotty no matter what you use. The best thing to use is star eater glacial quake which i know you are using. It should be an easy 3 phase, but the damage in each phase will be weird. At a certain point it becomes completely RNG dependent on how the servitors move... if they all cluster in the middle and the super hits all of them you chunk like crazy, but sometimes they float off to the sides where they dont get hit at all. In my clear I did more than half of his health in the first phase because I got good pathing and then only did like 40% in the second phase because the servitors trolled and had to do a third, despite doing the same thing every phase. Each phase will be inconsistent, but should be 3 total phases consistently. You can see my first phase at 17:50 and second at 22:05 https://youtu.be/9BoBE3KMhss?si=SaK0N7PGVQkONaXE
