The dark souls element of the gameplay likely means the fact that you have stamina, which means you can't just keep attacking/cutting wood/mining/running constantly. So don't think it means the game is unforgiving.

You have more stamina with better foods and there is a gameplay way of having better stamina regen at least some of the time.

Which certain enemies seem to keep spawning in our farm and keep destroying the crops.
Anyone that has progressed this far have ideas on that?

We just built a fenced farm right on the edge of plains and black forest, on the edge of water too. Haven't had anything spawn in it yet.

2 star fulings can go f themselves, I'm decked out in the appropriate tier armor sitting at 98 defense and they still do closer to 90 damage. Can't even block it without the 20% movement speed penalty shield

Once a boss is spawned, do they ever heal or despawn? The item for this one was a pain to get.

We got our asses kicked by the third boss and left him alone for a couple of irl days while we got some frost arrows, he was still right where we left him.

^^ Just Cheat Engine, sheesh.

Also how big are your saves getting? My World save is already 50+MB's... and like a tiny tiny fraction of this map is explored, do these things balloon to 200-500MBs eventually?

75MB so far. Not sure what has the highest impact on that, is it exploring, building or mining?

Is there any confirmed method for doing away with an enemy spawn zone? We found this nice peninsula to build a base on, but these greydwarves spawn on the very end of it every couple of in-game hours and we are constantly having to pause to fight them off. I tried flattening the section with the hoe, building a workbench in the area, and looked for other methods, but nothing is working. Nowhere I've looked online has any real clue.

Any solutions for this or should we just give up on this area and move to where there are no regular spawns?

Did you try make sure that the workbenches cover all the possible locations? They also really like to swim so you could line the coast with spikes too.

The gently caress is the secret to building docks in this game? Every youtube video makes it look terrible and tedious, and building it on land and then digging down tot he water isn't viable either since you end up swimming in shallow rear end water and Wet, so that's even more tedious.


Someone give me some sort of dock building secret knowledge.

I built those sloped roof pieces underwater to push me down toward the bottom so I could place big stone blocks deeper in water. Can't really build too far out with those unless you pick your site well.

Send some my way, I only found 4.

Trying to do things a bit differently again and skipping bosses. First is easy, second one not so. While finding surface silver is doable, doing it without iron stuff is not so you might need the swamp key for that. Do the swamp tower chests have any iron in them?

Wait how on earth would you skip boss 1? Isn't it impossible to obtain pickaxes without beating him?



Got lucky on tin when I found a troll right by the coast

From what I've seen online just skipping the first boss breaks raids. Not sure how it will work.

And the only key item you need is the one from the mountain boss. You can easily get in to swamp dungeons by placing a chair inside the gate. Can probably go in to your own game to select a power too

I'm guessing you can basically build a chair just inside the doorway and then "sit" in it, which probably clips you through the metal door. Probably do the same thing to get out of the crypt.

You can just exit normally

I started a no boss run just to see if it could be done, and to not have any raids. Ended up dying in a swamp dungeon and quitting :(

iirc it's hanging the trophy on the altar that progresses the world.

Quoting an old post regarding the progress of raids. This is apparently not true anymore and just killing the boss will progress the world.

On our server we've only killed the fourth boss to unlock black metal stuff, obliterated the trophy and just got our first fuling attack. Before that we only had the first kind of raid where its just boars and necks.

Where can you plant the new mushrooms? Can't cultivate mistland and it doesn't want to grow elsewhere

Yeah there is area where there's no grass and you can't grow them there.

Some strange boundaries


Much easier to make a farm in a place that was previously generated, none of that drat thick fog

And even though it says that the mushroom can't grow in this environment I'm still getting it to stage 2 in meadows. Sadly it dies after that

I spent the day fixing my lox pasture and now they don't bone. I guess I gave them too much space

There is a limit for how many lox can be around a certain radius. You can get around that by having a breeding pair high up, that way they'll continue dropping new babies constantly

It was 1 star tick and I had the speedy set on. The new armor sets require stupid amounts of mist adventures to build so haven't upgraded yet

Towers have anywhere from 0 to 17 of the new things required for them and so far it seems to have favored the absolute low end
