Nails, or how to break the Palworld economy over your knee. For extra brokenness raid a settlement or find a wandering merchant, slap them around a bit and whip a pokeball at their face. Keep them in the digital ether of your palbox, then materialize them in to reality whenever you want to buy/sell things.

Something small that I've really enjoyed during the exploration and I haven't seen mentioned is: Nightime lifmunk effigy chase. They are so well positioned to make you explore the map. You go get one and suddenly you see 2 more, you climb a peak, you go get an egg or chest that shows up. You get another one, fight a camp and rescue a pal. Such good design. Not even Breath of the wild or tears had something QUITE like it. Shrines sort of, but they were harder to find. Once they add quests and more complex gameplay this will be an incredible game.

I am quite impressed with the open world implementation. I climbed to the top of the volcano and realized I could see one of my bases on another island from there.

It specially owned when my lovely computer meant the statues INSIDE containers where rendered before the containers. No way I would've found them otherwise. Southern shore of the volcano, near the fishing town It's a shame that exploration is one and done, they have something great going on. The pal diversity by biome is great. I haven't played the newest pokemon to se ehow the experience compares in that sense.

They don't hide them either. I was at one spot between islands and could see 7-8 going along the cliffs, then when I got those and looked back could see others.

Some of them are in extremely creatively hidden spots that you can only see from very specific horizontal and vertical angles and distance, except at night when only 2 of those 3 conditions apply. I have been pleasantly surprised by that. That combined with chests and eggs being more visually apparent at night, is a great reason for players to leave their base instead of just crafting, sleeping or going after nocturnal pals. Still searching for an uncommon, rare, or legendary musket schematic... Edit Edit2 Good to know that it is per-player even on multiplayer servers. sushibandit fucked around with this message at 23:33 on Jan 29, 2024 |

It's also quite nice that there's far more statues than you actually need to max out your capture bonus, so you can just grab the ones that catch your attention or that you stumble onto rather than scour the map searching for each and every one.

sushibandit posted:I don't think they respawn or spawn uniquely for each player, so on a server you'll be fighting to collect them and max out your own caprate before others get to them. They basically have to have substantially more than 1 person's worth of effigies around unless they want to make it objectively worse to play multiplayer even with a couple of friends. Multiple players can loot the same statue. I had the same concerns until my buddy and I converged on one and realized we could both loot it. I suspect it's just tracked on a per-character basis.

Someone may have already found/shared this, but there's an incredible base location at coordinates at 5, -528. Flat cliff area with 7-8 reliable copper ore deposits and trees. If you need a lot of ore, this is your spot.   Doubly so because I just hatched this motherfucker from an egg and he is already going to be invaluable

WElp, I was having a fun chill time exploring and building a nice base and then a horde of ravenous dinosaurs showed up, destroyed everything and slaughtered everything in sight  They were lvl 30something and all my dudes are like, lvl 19 max, lol. feels good.

I put my base next to the six-ore spawn across the roped bridge from the Chillet boss or whatever. Makes defending way more manageable, mainly because the game is so jank right now that defense is impossible otherwise

Radical 90s Wizard posted:WElp, I was having a fun chill time exploring and building a nice base and then a horde of ravenous dinosaurs showed up, destroyed everything and slaughtered everything in sight It feels to me like it was all built with the expectation of being an Ark-like experience, and the defences are for fending off players with a pocketful of monsters, not a legion of hungry dinos or horny pink furballs. The map feels a more appropriate size for this type of experience as well. The AI raids feel like a correction when that didn't land, taking direction from Valheim. I'm pretty deep into it now, pushing into the last dozen levels, and the weirdest thing right now is seeing their roadmap be full of things like PvP and Raids. For all the things PalWorld is, it isn't a great battler, focusing on giving you more ways to battle and things to battle for feels like it's not doubling down on the games strengths.

Didn't someone post that the base 'turrets' will only work if you put them on the ground level? Lots of potential and cool ideas but require way to much optimal base placement to even get effective use out of at the moment.

We haven't had any problems with base raids but we built our first base right on the starting plateau and they can only come from either up or down the road so they usually just file in and get exploded or if I'm around I have my bird barbecue the whole line of them. Free medicine, bullets, and money for me. If they actually make it to the base the base usually explodes in multicolored elemental explosions, tornadoes, and beams and then they're all dead anyway.

Turrets are intended to be ways for your industry pals to get in on the action, but they're broken as gently caress currently so there's no point in building them.

I like that all but one of the nodes are tucked away on the cliff edge, so I can make an actual base in front of it. Also only has one entrance, so raids are easy.

Positioning can mitigate or completely remove the raid threat. Grinding levels on all base pals will let them actually fight back so you don't have a level 1 Jolthog trying to fight level 50 syndicate. Raids aren't an unsolvable problem but there's no interesting play or mechanical benefit from solving them that isn't also gained by turning them off. I hope they iterate to make raids interesting and rewarding (instead of just leaving/removing them) because without the threat you lose a bunch of tech tree defensive options.

i hope raid ai is improved so that they can actually recognize a path inside. watched a crowd of guys run into my wall for an hour while any of them could have just walked a bit further to the left to cross right in. but what's really bad are the ones who manage to glitch their way through due to sheer volume. usually the critters get them, but my personal response has been to set up a shitload of walls stacked in front of each other. also considering making a ring of fireplaces to burn invaders to death with

Tbh it seems like any pals way below your player level get a massive boost to exp, might be unrelated though.

How do I build more than one level high? I build a foundation, then I build a roof and a staircase leading to the roof. I can build out the second floor by adding walls and another roof, but it won't let me place a stair case on the roof. It just leaves the materials when I try to build it, and I really have to fiddle with it to even let me try to place it. e: nm, saw a post on the previous page ninjoatse.cx fucked around with this message at 03:43 on Jan 30, 2024 |

You'll also have significantly more fun. Though realistically, it's not a bad call to crank up the XP multiplier once you've maxed out your level so that the Pals can level quickly to catch up.

Yeah the sword is like the multi tool I wanted all along for those two chores. I just caught a level 50 Frostallion boss. At level 47 my best guns were doing 3-4 damage on headshots lol. I made 500 assault ammo thinking I'd be good for like, a very long time. Wasted em all in that battle. Wasn't prepared for it, only had 1 fire pal at level 40 but he got the job done. Anubis is off the team, he spends way too much time not fighting and his moves are too slow to hit bosses. If he even decides to attack. What a goober. Took over 50 legendary pal balls at a baseline 3% rate. I still need 5 more lifemunks to max out catching energy, definitely gonna do that before trying to catch any other level 50 bosses.

Again the only thing in the raids favor imo is that the dudes drop good stuff like medicine, money, and ammo. Ymmv but I'll take the occasional free delivery of some items to my base. I don't think I've ever had a pal get killed by a raid, just crafting things in the base raises every pal's level enough that they can usually put up a good fight.
