Endless Archive Additional Thread not working

Hey all,

As the title says the additional thread is not functioning. I keep getting kicked out at 1 thread remaining.

Also if your partner loses all their threads are you ejected from the run? I have had 2-3 threads left and been kicked twice randomly, once with partner alive still both with multiple threads on round 2 of adds in-between them spawning and once when my partner died and I still had two threads left.

It's quite annoying now, been kicked out of last three attempts. Thought it was possibly due to missing threads on partners side but I got kicked last night by myself on last thread after dying.

    threads are shared, so if you have 4 due to the upgrade and the other player doesn't you both still start with 4. No idea whats causing you to be kicked out though

    Threads are shared between players in duo action, so with 2 upgrades you have 5 total threads for the run.

    Also, if it reads 1 thread remaining and you die/hit the stair bug where you lose a thread, you're out, there is no 0 threads remaining.

    The bug where you port back to the spawn location also takes a thread?

    Is this thread not removed from the total threads? As that did happen to me during my last run.

    So if one player loses all 5 threads that will be the end of the run? Or do I have one thread remaining to continue?

    I think threads should be for yourself and you should be able to revive partner for free after a arc boss.

    both players have to be dead to lose a thread, not just one. If you lose all 5 (if you have 5 to start) then yes that is the end of the run. If one player dies and the other doesn't, no thread is lost

    Naw, that's just an annoyance, it's the one with the stairs where the third group spawns in the lower level and they run under the terrain and eat a thread.

    So reviving does actually save a thread? We were kicked with multiple threads remaining the first time so very strange, unless the glitch mentioned affected us both and ruined our run!

    Hoping the update today fixes this.

    There is no patch today so I'm not expecting any fixes, its a hardware upgrade (and I assume the usual server wash and blow dry)
