Made in Abyss Roguelite RPG Roguelite RPG: Ido Front Lab Stealth & Survival

To survive the Ido Front laboratory in Made in Abyss Roguelite RPG Roguelite RPG, avoid direct combat by relying on stealth, line-of-sight concealment, and strict sound management. High enemy density makes combat encounters in this sector extremely dangerous, so breaking line-of-sight and disabling security devices are essential steps for reaching extraction points safely.

Line-of-Sight and Detection Control

The laboratory detection system relies on lighting levels and vision cones. Stick to the edges of corridors where shadows are darkest to avoid triggering the detection threshold of patrolling research automata.

If an enemy detects movement:

Move behind structural pillars or heavy laboratory equipment immediately to break direct sight.
Watch the "Investigating" alert icon above the enemy's head.
Remain completely still until the icon clears before resuming your path. Moving while the alert icon is active will trigger combat.

Navigating Environmental Hazards

Unlike open Abyss layers, the laboratory contains mechanical hazards that inflict damage and trigger loud sound cues, revealing your position to nearby units.

Hazard Type	Warning Indicator	Consequence	Countermeasure
Electrified Panels	Flickering lights on nearby walls or floor	Environmental damage, loud noise cue	Avoid active floor zones entirely.
Steam Vents	Periodic steam pressure releases	Damage and movement stuns	Time your movement to cross only after steam dissipates.
Power Conduits	Exposed wires	Permanent debuffs to stamina recovery	Avoid physical contact to preserve dash capacity.

Managing Noise Levels

Confined spaces and metal floor grating amplify movement sounds. When within a 10-meter radius of any stationary enemy unit, walk instead of running. Track your current noise output by monitoring the intensity of the audio ripples displayed on the HUD.

To pass high-risk or noisy areas:

Equip gear providing a Silent Step bonus to reduce your base noise radius.
Throw a distraction decoy into a far corner. Enemies will investigate the sound impact, giving you a 5- to 10-second opening to slip past undetected.

Disabling Security and Recovering Loot

Looting supply crates or storage lockers triggers a fixed animation that leaves you vulnerable. Security cameras equipped with glowing red lenses frequently monitor these supply caches and will alert all room occupants if you start opening a container within their vision cone.

Always locate and destroy local camera nodes before opening supply caches. Once security is cleared, collect all available supplies, prioritizing Research Logs to gain passive boosts to your evasion stats.

Planning Extraction and Resetting Pursuit

Map out your return route before engaging main objectives in the sector. If pursued by security forces, focus entirely on escaping rather than fighting:

Spend stamina to chain dashes through open doorways.
Close doors immediately behind you.
Closing a door breaks pursuit and forces enemy AI to soft-reset back to default patrol routes.
