It is noticeable when you first switch to it, but good to remember you're losing 2-3 levels of sprint speed and stamina-while-sprinting when you die around skill 50.

Just skip the gcp portions and/or reference the docs I’m talking about directly. I’d also suggest looking into Docker if you’re down to play with containers. Thanks! Was gonna just try it out on my machine that i use as a plex server, but this sounds safer and easier.

Bronze tier would suck a lot less if you got 3 bronze ingots per synth instead of just a measly one.

Trivia posted:Bronze tier would suck a lot less if you got 3 bronze ingots per synth instead of just a measly one. Am I imagining things or does copper sometimes just drop no ore at all? Just up the drop rate. Edit: Also someone make a video about the bronze smelting process. Smaller than before!

Occasionally it will drop none but then then next chunk I pick at drops 2 ore. Anecdotal mind you.

The real problem with copper is the instant your pick makes a CLANK noise every dwarf in a thousand mile radius hears it and comes rushing to figure out wtf is going on. You spend half the time beating them back. And sometimes they bring a troll along too.

Yall not bothering with picks is wild. The absolute first thing to build for any new tier of metal is a pick. That's what gets you more of that metal, faster, after all.

Get a iron helmet because it's cheap and no movement penalty, but I feel like I could of easily skipped iron chest/legs until I got silver, you do want some fancy armor for the plains just so you don't get randomly 1-2 shot by a javelin thrower or deathsquito you didn't see coming. I built a bronze pickaxe but ultimately put it in storage because it was easier to just make a crafting station outside a crypt or next to a copper vein. Another tip for beginners is knowing what the various status effects like rested, cold, wet do, you can check ingame by hitting tab and checking the raven but here they are: Wet: Health regen -25% Stamina regen -15%, sit by a fire to dry up fast, you can also build campfires in crypts as the one dry place in the swamp. Cold: Health regen -50% Stamina regen -25%, get the pelts for a warm cloak in the fourth or fifth biomes Rested: Health regen +50% Stamina regen +100% Very important to rest up before adventuring or making a campfire as you go 125% health regen and 140% stamina regen difference between your high point and low point and fighting hordes of enemies at night can quickly turn into a war of attrition as it takes longer and longer to get the stamina to swing back.

Each point of additional comfort adds a minute to the rested buff. And it's super easy to do. Even early game, don't forgot to throw down a rug (made with deer skin), or make a chair (fine wood, needs bronze axe) for a few extra points.

Alternately just never go outside at night  I've decided bows are just the way to be. I get great amounts of amusement just standing on a rock in the middle of the plains at night and mowing down the 5 packs of roaming dudes. As an added bonus the way bodies decompose in this game it looks like I'm firing explosive arrows at them or something. I'm up to 87 bow skill and it's just broken as all hell

Bows are just the best option most of the time, I didn't even touch most of the other stuff besides bows and a axe until iron. On top of that, bow skill is probably one of the best skills to max out on because not only does it increase your damage per hit but it increases your draw speed to hit full power shots faster, even at 40ish bow skill you can charge it fast enough to stagger enemies quickly.

Does your accuracy improve too? That's one of the main things that stop me hitting the super long shots.

dogstile posted:Telling people that troll leather armour is completely ok for the whole game is a bit if a dick move, imo. Troll armor isn't good enough to carry you past the swamp but fully upgraded troll armor definitely lets you prioritize other things that are relatively more important when you hit the bronze tier: bronze pickaxe, a bronze axe, an Ategir, a cultivator, a bronze mace, ect. Depending on your luck in the swamps that leaves you free to spend your iron on iron armor, which is actually a big upgrade over troll. The reality is whether you invest in Iron or Bronze armor just depends on which of the metals you find a lot more of. If your seed has a lot of bronze and you aren't finding many crypts then just roll fully upgraded bronze armor into silver armor. Vice versa, it's entire possible to skip bronze, fully upgrade iron, and then skip silver to the final tier armor if you find a lot of crypts. As a general rule you can skip any given tier of armor after Troll armor, imo. Fart Car '97 fucked around with this message at 21:59 on Mar 5, 2021 |

How much of the cold resist armor do you need to skip on frost resist potions? I got just enough silver on the first silver trip to get a cloak and maybe a piece of armor.

I only observed the chest piece actually giving the effect, and I believe it just has the same effect as the frost potion, it makes you "resistant" to frost as a qualitative thing. Just it made me not take freezing damage from the mountains.

Do better picks actually help for iron? I got the impression that the basic pick break down the piles as fast as any other pick, doesn't it? Is it about durability? Of course getting an iron pick is never a wrong move because you won't outgrow it and you need it soon enough, but I'm not so excited about a bronze one. I don't think so need that much copper before getting to iron?

I hope down the line there is a bit of a rebalance of early metal costs, it takes 20 iron to make a iron bow and 60 more to fully upgrade it, just to end up with something that does less damage then the next tier basic bow.

Devs pls nerf wolf howls asap my WOLF PACK is doing me fookin head in e] I just use stone wall for my pigs cos once they get broken out and wander off it seems basically impossible to get them back in. I have a bunch of 2 star tame boars roaming the nearby forest that I've been trying to lure back home, but they're too smart for me. So now my piggies are free-range I guess.
