Maybe their eventual playthrough won't be as focused on treating the sick, but then they still need to keep characters alive somehow. Maybe Clara's will involve sacrificing extras to gain the power to save the actors? The Bachelor will also make tinctures but roll his eyes or something while doing

The first time I looted the Surgery Tutorial building I came out with a slab of fresh meat in my belly, two bottles of twyrine, a full pocket of needles and so much valuable treasure that I was seriously debating leaving behind some of the dude's organs. The second time I came out with one bottle of twyrine and a pocketful of fishhooks.

It only led me to two but I think I missed one welp. Someone posted a map online though if anyone else is curious - https://www.gameskinny.com/t569e/pathologic-2-shop-herbs-and-hidden-stash-map-locations I love the idea of schmowders too. Meticulously and thematically finding a panacea through the concept of a minotaur and connections? gently caress that! Chug every pill on earth, scorched earth the bastard e: Man rolling four hours back hurt. I found something interesting though - if you go to fight the looters in your house and it hits midnight while you're there, the looters despawn, but the house's loot doesn't.

The best character in the game is the kid who trades an egg for a hazelnut. That little dude and all his clones are solid. What barters are best to look out for?

Tinctures for food with steppe people is probably the core trade for surviving comfortably. Heap of garbage for shmowder with little girls is amazing when you get it

How do you guys have the tinctures to spare to trade? The most at a time I've had is eight and that went to treatment. You get effectively one per blood and I haven't come across a particularly large amount of twyre otherwise except at the bull ritual.

I had a pretty huge stockpile of bottles from the first few days which might be anomalous. If anything the limiting factor was learning the root spots. Pemmican rules everything around me

So is there a way to keep Notkin from getting infected or is it part of the plot? Also for anyone struggling to find herbs: They seem to naturally spawn in abundance around the stone circle south west of the train station.

SweetBro posted:So is there a way to keep Notkin from getting infected or is it part of the plot? You get a chance to save him if you give him an immune booster before the end of the day he spends in an infected district. If he does get infected, you can cure him the same way you can cure everyone else: with a schmowder or a panacea

The Vosgian Beast posted:You get a chance to save him if you give him an immune booster before the end of the day he spends in an infected district. In my run Notkin went straight to infected status without a chance to boost immunity. This may be due to the 'death house' event. The thought board even says something about how skipping past 'in danger' is the disease breaking it's own rules. I love how much stuff is packed into the town. For example, I made it to day 7 without getting in to the termitary or whatever it's called. I still have no clue how to get in, and where the heck is everyone getting babies? Maybe my exploration plan needs to be less dumpster focused.

Houses with babies in them will just be automatically circled on your map in infected districts whenever Artemy gets close enough to hear crying.

Is there anything I can do to stop the game from constantly stuttering and hitching? I don't think it's my graphics card because I tried running it in a 1600x900 window on low settings and it's still doing it. Smooth frame-rate until I start walking around town then it's 2-3 seconds of freezing every little bit.

Star Guarded posted:Every night I set aside 3-4 hours to hit up the bull ritual area and the three farming areas in the village of the corner of the map. Gives you about twenty of every non-rare herb every single day past the very first night with very little searching (they glow at night and they're all bunched up together). Also includes around 20 swervery so you can make tons of +Medrel tinctures for powerful immunity boosts to yourself and folks in danger. Twyre: the cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems

Exhaustion actually deals relatively little health damage, to the point where I almost feel it is worth to push through and then sleep on Morphine for like three hours each day instead of getting a full rest.

Who wants to hear an incredibly stupid story? Day 7 spoilers I reset my game entirely because Murky died. Eight hours later, I realized it was because I picked the wrong dialogue option (I always pick the "Artemy is dumb as rocks" option, which is not the best thing to do when the Sand Pest is threatening the lives of you and everyone you love). Yes, I worked on this game. I literally localized that conversation. I just assumed I hadn't found enough clues for Murky to live. Even though I also localized the mind map. At least now I have a shotgun.

Good to know, I'll have to check it out.

Verviticus posted:yeah, and buying all the bandages at pharmacies I've been running a second profile, and all the advice about healing and avoiding exhaustion make a ton more sense now that I have a better idea of what items I need and how to murder my way to big profits. The downside is that on my first profile I got 4 schmowder by day 4 compared to 0 on my new run and god drat I didn't know how good I had it. All my extra smart gathering only barely makes up for the loss, at least on my anxiety meter, which has no in-game effect.
