[boreal lark]

Are you still early game?

[haughty niche]

well "early" in progression, i prolly spent 15 hours and i only just killed richards

been turtling hard

i do have quite a stockpile of wood, fiber food and copper

[thick ocean]

I would consider that early game

[haughty niche]

definetly don't win any prices for speedrun

[boreal lark]

Ok, yeah, once you can level up all the gear it's def worth it. Once you unlocked the foothills and can make gunpowder, the Dragons Breath is amazing.

That's what I used til' swamps.

[thick ocean]

And Pigs still remain frustrating...

[boreal lark]

I just summon Truffle to kill them while I do my own thing lol

[haughty niche]

charging boars and the bitey undead have been the bane of my existence, and a bit of armored undead

[lunar vine]

my first playthrough i didnt find dragons breath, plague halberd, or arboris saber until i was on the very last island. Was sad.

[haughty niche]

thats why i like the dot, not as good vs undead but still i can kill them

[boreal lark]

Dude, I didn't find the Reliable Musket until the LAST chest I looted in the game, and I was chasing that weapon from the beginning. Once I got it, I was so disappointed bc it's not even that good, and the Dragon's Breath is WAY better for my playstyle.

[uneven pier]

Reliable Musket drops in the first 2 biomes so...exaggerate much

[lunar vine]

always feels like what you want is the last place you look.

still possible, if they missed a chest someplace and went back later.

[boreal lark]

There was an island in the far west corner of the map that I didn't explore. (I don't use guides) So I didn't find it til' after I beat the game and was completing all the side quests.

[rustic sage]

I got reliable musket in the 2nd chest i looted from the first pirate camp i defeated

[thick ocean]

The natural progression of this game was not to complete everything in a biome for me. I wanted iron before I killed Richards

So I went to the foothills

[uneven pier]

Wow you must be a pro, beating Priestess without hitting max lvl. (Sarcasm btw)

[boreal lark]

its funny you say that, I actually beat it on my first try with the fish weapon while I was testing a build. I was so disappointed at the low DPS, and was just waiting to die, but after seeing it at half health I thought "maybe I can do this" and actually did it. but I'm not very good at the game, I just enjoy finding fun and effective builds to play with.

[boreal lark]

it's a small learning curve at first, but end game it's def easy.

[carmine sonnet]

I almost finished all the boat battles with zero upgrades haha

[boreal lark]

watch out @uneven pier 's heads gonna explode because it's not possible to do such a thing lol.

(sarcasm by the way)

[thick ocean]

some people just want to watch the world burn

[carmine sonnet]

I didnt even know I could upgrade my cannons so I was just shooting boats with level 1 guns on a frigate lol

[boreal lark]

lol I used the boat I started with til' the end. But I upgraded all of my stuff. Didn't know how OP the frigate was til after I did everything. There was one quest where I probably died a dozen times trying to sink all these ships that would destroy me.

[wooden kettle]

Can u leave torches inside the mines and wont affect the ore respawn or they do ?

[boreal lark]

Nope, the ore will just spawn through the torches, and the torches will appear when you destroy the ore.

Edit: So yes, you can leave torches in mines, and no they don't effect the spawn

[wooden kettle]

KK ty

[crude osprey]

I cannot see a reason for lamps/lights in the copper/iron mines, maybe your brightness setting is low? Other than seeing enemy ships when its dark + raining, on land or in a mine I've run into 0 visibility issues so this baffles me

[lunar vine]

your global illumination is off or low. When global illum is low it does not create the shadows in the caves that make it dark

[pale nova]

Your brightness is way too up then

[boreal lark]

If you run on high video/graphic settings, the shaders can be pretty brutal in caves.

[wooden kettle]

Sorry that baffles u still ill keep doing my torches inside the mines and u do u

[crude osprey]

actually its rather low as I do not like bright whiteness on most screens, but thanks

[crude osprey]

love to see just how dark it is for u, as you're doing u

[uneven pier]

i find the lantern is fine for that job tbh

[rancid sierra]

Lanterns are temporary, but torch is forever. :p And the wood is generally more available than animal fat.

[wooden kettle]

Yea still dosnt bother me but still bothers u the fact that am doing my torches so i just move on whit my llife lol

[vestal walrus]

Any server have slot for a new player?

[wooden kettle]

It is lol but i always forget to take it whit me since i try to have as much space available as possible in my invent, am a loot gobbling lol ill take everything whit me ergo need my invent clear as much as i can

[hollow fossil]

umm question is any crashing

[green coral]

The idea that you can't have a table or chair outside of Bonfire range irks me to no end.

[crude osprey]

that you replied in such a manner tells me it bothers you plenty. I simply asked a logical question - if its so dark for someone that using a light source is needed, I'd like to see what you see as it's foreign to me. /shrug......but had you "moved on whit yo life" then you'd not have bothered to type that.........js

[boreal lark]

Nope

[hollow fossil]

cause i just crash for first time twice in a roll

[wooden kettle]

My game crash every time i change screens more than once 😢

[wooden kettle]

Ok bro have a good night or day

[crude osprey]

1 freeze but think it was more due to other programs going at same time, game reloaded asap with no issues

[hollow fossil]

i only got this one game and discord and crash twice in 5mins

[rancid sierra]

You can slap down a bonfire, place the stuff, then remove the bonfire... but sadly forges and kilns just stop working outside of bonfire range. That's just silly to me. :p

[green coral]

It happens once in a while. ...not to me, but I see a lot of people talking about it.

I more often get this weird thing where all the grass will vanish for a moment, then reappear. No idea why.

[hollow fossil]

are they planning to upgrade the campfire

[boreal lark]

I don't think the bonfire range is big enough, especially when building a large base.

[crude osprey]

thats those mushrooms you ate from the swamps 😄

[hollow fossil]

i agree

[boreal lark]

hopefully so, it's still early access, and I imagine theyre going to listen to their player base on what the wants and needs are of the game.

[hollow fossil]

have they spoken about adding bigger ships or we stuck with the fig

[green coral]

Same feeling as not being able to place a torch on a wall without a bonfire nearby. They need to be a little less selective and say 'The comfort bonus only works within bonfire range.' rather than 'You can't build a chair outside of bonfire range.'

[green coral]

...would you believe I haven't made it to the swamp yet?

[crude osprey]

then I apologize for the teeny weeny spoiler of the shroom 🙁

[green coral]

With how eager everyone is to see larger and more 'boom-y' ships on the water, I'm sure they have other ones planned.

I swear, I played with a guy friend of mine and his friend, and they couldn't get enough of the sound of the cannons, right up to the point of them wasting the whole night and not doing what we set out to do. xD

They absolutely need to add more cannons to keep the men entertained. xD

[rigid rapids]

https://tenor.com/c0AZhtawX8C.gif

[boreal lark]

I never set out to do what I'm going to do, I always get distracted doing something else... such as spending my whole night sinking ships when I'm supposed to be farming ingots lol

[rigid rapids]

I had the same issue of being side-tracked until I played satisfactory where I legit had to slow down and focus on something beside work

Game effectively cured my ADHD

[fringe bone]

On the default light settings it does get too dark to see clearly unless you have torches or carry a lamp.

[rancid sierra]

There can be a STAGGERING difference in lighting if you change the shadow Global Illumination and graphics settings. We were both in the same mine at the same time...

[crude osprey]

Interesting, I've made no changes to display settings, only audio

[brittle lava]

might've been different by default bc it matched to system capabilities or smth

[crude osprey]

holy cow, thats a crazy difference in light contrast

[fringe bone]

Evidently something is changed from default settings. Possibly the gamma on your monitor is set too high.

[uneven pier]

there is a Darkness setting you adjust the first tiem you boot the game.

if you dont adjust it you get the top screenshot, if you reduces it like it suggests, you get screen shot 2

if it not the bug with lighting in caves (which was suposed to have been fixed last patch)

[crude osprey]

my laptop's brightness is under 80% when it's "recommended" is higher but that makes stuff too bright to me. Haven't touched any other display settings as it's a new laptop and never had to make any adjustments in the onboard vidcard. Sucks anyone has to bring or build light inside the mines, steps or something to get the stuff that sticks to cave roof but not light 🙁

[haughty niche]

so just if people did'nt know what shanties are for: rhythms for heavy work. different ones depending on work. Halyard shanties for hoisting sails (blow the man down) Capstan shanties, raising the anchor (leave her johnny) those was the ones i could find for now

[rancid sierra]

Yeah, neither of us had changed monitor brightness. That's just because Pin's PC is pretty low end, so all the post processing and fancy stuff was turned off.
Gotta fire up the game real quick to tell ya what setting it is. But it's usually SSAO, which is a dynamic shadow thing.
Huh. It's "Global Illumination." Set to low, and the whole cave is lit up. Set to epic, and perpetual darkness until you add torches or lamps.
Edit: Even Global Illumination - Medium will be dark and shadows. But all the way to low, and it's lit UP.

[crude osprey]

logging in to check mine too - Borderless Window / TSR / render reso 70%/sharpness 0

[haughty niche]

and i don't know why but every "25 best shanties video's" i find on youtube sound like Justin timberlake or some other spindly white college kid who never done a bit of hard work in their life. i like the ingame one. that guy SOUND like he breathed rum and salty air for most of his life

[timid jay]

Isn't defeating richards too much for a level 4 quest ?

[rigid rapids]

I love shanty gatekeeping bruh let em know

[uneven pier]

depends more on item lvl than character

[rigid rapids]

Not as long as you figured out how the game fighting works and it's more item lvl than character lvl that's important

[haughty niche]

i doubt i could have killed him with any less than beeing lvl 9

[timid jay]

I maxed out my items to level 5 still struggling

[finite sage]

Time to git gud then

[rigid rapids]

Fighting like a coward is the way of the unc. Just hit a couple of times and run away then go back to hit again

[haughty niche]

or can you cheese it and lower difficulty for boss fight only?

or are you locked in on difficulty?

[timid jay]

Its no more about skill issues I feel its too much for a first level boss

[timid jay]

I generally play in normal but idk if we can change this mid game ?

[toxic crown]

i got him down by just shooting at him from a distance. i saved all the ammo and gunpowder and farmed it by killing pirates till i had about 100 of each and just kept shooting at him with a relibable musket (fastest reload) and if he hit him i took a health potion right away even if it was just a small hit

[toxic crown]

you can change it before loading into the server. you'll see an option for server setting in which you can change it

[rigid rapids]

In general he has like 2 atk patterns so it's not hard to learn even for a bad gamer like me

The first time I fought him I got smacked but then I just let him start atk > shoot then move in for 2-3 autos then repeat

[finite sage]

Also he has a vulnerable state when you perfect block him out of shields

You eating vit/end food?

[radiant stone]

Goodmorning to all....Any Greeks here?

[lapis pilot]

are there any dedicated servers i can join for fun here?

[toxic crown]

check https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1493010069682520138
lots of people who promote their server

[lapis pilot]

let me check, thanks

[lapis pilot]

btw i mean like, i just wanna join randoms on coop adventure

and do random stuff i guess

[toxic crown]

in that case https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1493029476970270740 might help. might be some posts from people who just want to play co-op (and otherwise you can make a post there)

[north pilot]

just got the game anyone got room in a server for me pretty new at this stuff

[scenic cypress]

Prepare to have a lot of fun. I do recommend trying solo for a bit, just to get a gist of things, though there are a lot of people who are willing to help fresh people.

[toxic crown]

indeed, try to get the hang of it by playing a bit solo and one big tip i'll give you. always set up a tent if you go to another island cause early on you'll die a lot and this way you'll respawn on the island you died on

[north pilot]

awesome ty guys nice to see people wanting to help. i played palworld and when i saw this one i just bought it looked awesome

[orchid bison]

This is the biggest tip I wish I had known when I started

[lapis pilot]

none of those invite codes are working

even 24/7 dedicated server ones

[toxic crown]

then best to make a post in the looking for party channel to see if you can find someone to play co-op

[lapis pilot]

got it

[crude osprey]

welcome to the contested seas!! My recommendation since it's early access - TAKE YOUR TIME!! Get the hang of fighting mechanics / techniques, get used to dash + dodge while fighting, collect resources any time you can <between points of interest>(wood/plants/ore etc) and 1 warning - - - building is ADDiCTING 😄 All the more reason to take your time and collect lots of resources

[scenic cypress]

Building is addicting.. I was talking to Goodie about my 80k stone test castle

[urban pier]

can you farm Tumbaga Ingots in windrose?

sorry I asked two AIs that question, and I copy pasted the question. I think they are lying when they say yes.

[frail granite]

Great game even AI has found it hard, sending me into murder island. finaly got to island withiron and seting up a base by a ship i can repair

[cobalt trout]

Yes you can. In the swamps.

[prisma tide]

the tainted ruins in the swamp region 6/6 can be farmed for tumbaga

[abstract aspen]

in the swamps there's certain poi that have respawning ingots. if you hover over the marker with your cursor it shows what can be farmed there

[urban pier]

is it this map? Is the temple the one with the gold marker? I tried to hover over it, but I think the marker is in the way. Is it another swamp island?

I am getting confirmation that it's not the swamp island I need

[knotty harness]

That is indeed not the swamp island with the respawning ingots

The island you need will have mining POIs in the southeast and southwest corners and an Exquemelin camp on the western coast

[vernal basin]

check the poi´s. hovering over them tells you what you can get there given they are discovered

[wispy cove]

You will know if you've reached the ingots temple, its the biggest temple on all the plague islands

And its half plague and half not plague

It has lootable jars that give the ingots

[quick patio]

Tainted Ruins of an Ancient Temple is what you’re looking for

[normal rune]

[outer pond]

Are you looking for this?

[oblique lily]

can you took screenshot all of your map?

[outer pond]

what for?

[oblique lily]

i want to see because mine still fog

[scenic cypress]

Yours might not be the exact same

[oblique lily]

the map is random?

[scenic cypress]

Yeah

[outer pond]

everyone gets a different arrangement of the same islands but here ya go...

[oblique lily]

omg

thanks major i thought we have the same map

[outer pond]

no problem brother!

[glacial mica]

awes, no double doors with stone? >.<

[scenic cypress]

Whatcha mean

[glacial mica]

all double arch doors have plaster on top 🙁

[meager kelp]

So I was playing on a friend's server and lagged out.... now I can not connect again. I've tried reverifying my files on steam, I completely reinstalled the game on Steam.... I did the DNS 8.4.4.8 thing, flushDNS/ipconfig thing.... can't figure out why I can't get back in.... any suggestions?

[vernal basin]

as you try to join. does the server show a number of players as if you never left?

[meager kelp]

sometimes.... there are 3 of us and sometimes it says 3/8 other times it says 2/8

it either sits there on LOADING ... or it puts me back to the character selection screen with the red PLAY flag

[vernal basin]

if its not a nitrado (or place else) server, try restarting the world if it shows 3/8 even tho there are only 2.
if it is a ^ server, i can sadly not aid there due to no knowledge about that

[meager kelp]

I can log into single player normally

Server is on GGHost

server currently shows 2/8

if I had to guess in this case, it sometimes takes a minute to get my character off the server

[vernal basin]

no idea how that works sadly. never used any hosting of that sort

[meager kelp]

fair enough... the strange part is that it let me on and I played for a couple hours.... then just poof can't get back on

[abstract aspen]

any mods?

[meager kelp]

none

[glacial mica]

lols

[meager kelp]

server restart was set for now anyways, lol.... we'll see if that works

[vernal basin]

thing about these servers as far as i am aware is that "nitrado" is the official one but they naturally cant help with issues on other providers stuff if it even is a server issue

[meager kelp]

probably the case

still takes me to the character select/PLAY screen

thanks for the attempted help guys, I appreciate it

I wouldn't think it was strange if I wasn't just on the server then all of the sudden poof it won't let me back in

ok, so I don't know what changed, but I got back in.... just gonna sneak away like Homer Simpson in that meme with the bushes

#│announcements message

[boreal copper]

After 314 hrs of gameplay on a Windows client - this is my wish list. 🙂

1. Building mode exit - not only <esc>, but also with any action key. (like selecting a weapon - when jumped on when building)
2. Active reload button <R> should not interrupt a previous reload in progress. (Mistakenly hitting <R> twice or more in the middle of a fight.)
3. Health potion should not process at full health when pressed from action bar or inventory.
4. Any aim angle from a ship should move seamlessly between sides and front. Not have to re-aim.
   (It is fine if the aim arcs do not overlap - just no white aim arc when in dead zone)
5. Optionally: Change ship aim arc color (to green/yellow?) when it is likely to hit something.
6. Possibility to Upgrade of Axe and pick axe. (Try harvesting 300 tainted wood)
7. Not share loaded/unloaded state between guns. Each gun should have it's own (re)load state.
   (It does not make sense to have a loaded gun, but when you shoot with ANOTHER gun, it gets unloaded and needs to be reloaded again)
8. Perhaps a gas mask head piece for Tainted areas.
9. Increase drop amount of Rum, Spices, Sugar and Tainted bile just slightly - not much.

[versed island]

So Mastery is useless from every builds on guide sites and videos?
I would just add small pts in Mastery.

[uncut gyro]

Methinks many of these are on windrose.support/ideas, you should give 'em a vote and add ones that aren't there

[lapis pilot]

i need help in beating richards if someone can

[olive canyon]

iirc Mastery improves crit chance and since you can guarantee crits by hitting headshots on most enemies so it isnt necessary for firearm builds, but could be useful for melee ones

[bold obsidian]

Most crit builds assume you're using headshots with guns to get automatic crits, therefore crit chance doesn't matter.

[abstract aspen]

https://windrose.support/ideas dont forget to throw them there so the devs can see them :)

[versed island]

I better try mastery food buff

[vernal grotto]

8. you can find a ring for this, up to 45% protection

ironically most of my plague deaths have been when using the protectin ring, because i get complacent 😄 when i dont use it im careful

This is surely some IRL phenomenon too i bet.

[uncut gyro]

ahhh, the myth of safety

[boreal copper]

Thx: But then you lose the perk from another ring. I give it a try.

[crude onyx]

i see, with your gas mask idea, they would need to add another item slot

[bold obsidian]

The Peltzman effect.

[crude onyx]

putzman? i kid

[bold obsidian]

We would need upgraded shovels to go with this, I think.

[olive canyon]

5. Optionally: Change ship aim arc color (to green/yellow?) when it is likely to hit something.
   I don't know - might be simplifying things a touch too far considering that there's already not a ton of mechanics to manage with Ship Combat.
   Personally I wouldn't care, especially if it is done as a difficulty toggle, but I can def see the argument that it would be too reductive to have as the default.
6. Possibility to Upgrade of Axe and pick axe. (Try harvestiny 300 tainted wood)
   Personally I'd love to see "Tool" variants with little bonuses that we can Upgrade/Ascend.
   But, if your only complaint is the speed, just know that once Ashlands drops we'll likely be able to craft the "Swamp" toolset, so an improvement over the Iron gear is already in place.
7. Increase drop amount of Rum, Spices, Sugar and Tainted bile just slightly - not much.
   Can't agree - Tainted Bile especially has gotten a pretty significant buff to it's drop rate and is in a good place.
   As for the others, with the exception of Sugar ||(which imo should be made via the Millstone by grinding down Sugarcane as a new plantable/farmable asset)||, everything is pretty easily gotten.

[vernal basin]

for the shovel its enough to let us flatten into our foundations. we can dig, but no flatten or raise

[olive canyon]

Well yeah - its intended to be a tradeoff

[vale violet]

I know digging for treasure is a thing, but I've wound up with WW1 looking bomb craters more than once. I dont know what an upgraded shovel would do???

[vernal grotto]

lvl 2 shovel has a metal detector

[vale violet]

There's a level 2 shovel?

[olive canyon]

• sharp corners instead of bomb craters
• finer control over depth/radius/etc
• less stamina consumed
  🤷‍♂️

[olive canyon]

naur, we're hypothesizing

[bold obsidian]

I meant as a weapon. Are you all not shoveling your enemies in the face?

[olive canyon]

https://tenor.com/mtclqYjSSrQ.gif

[vale violet]

Oh, okay.

the way I shovel, I would decimate enimies with a couple of swipes!!

enemies even

Tbh ive 100% gotten enemies stuck in holes ive dug

I just got the plague pistol, but can't upgrade it yet. do I have to kill the third boss to make the arboreum ingots?

[olive canyon]

naur

[dim vale]

Why?

[vale violet]

I don't have access to the enchantment table, I'm level 12

[bold obsidian]

Cut some plague wood.

[olive canyon]

have you cut down and smelted any Plague Wood?

[vale violet]

I did that, but don't have the ability to turn that stuff into ingots.

[next plume]

CHAPPIN DAT PLUH-GOO WOOD LETS GOOOO 😤

[vale violet]

i'm scared of that priestess. I'm kind of delaying going after her

[olive canyon]

If you've cut down Plague Wood (not Tarwood), you should be able to smelt it into Essence Arborum
(https://windrose.tools/items/did-resource-umbra-essence-t03)
with that you should be able to craft the Enchanting Table

[vale violet]

Plus I dont want to finish the game yet...but I'm scared lol.

Iron and copper mining tends to generate plenty of extra stone, I just put a few storages by my mines and put the waste rock in there for when I need it.

[dim vale]

Ah, yes, through those "online" shops you plant on your base. Haven't built one yet.

[glacial mica]

you mean merchants?

great for flax

[dim vale]

I don't think so...
Actually, my guess is, wherever you dig, if you dig enough, you'll find the water. Haven't tried to dig THAT deep inland though.

[urban pier]

drug dealers

[finite sage]

Amazon Prime that stuff

[dim vale]

Yeah, that's a good idea. But it would be much better if store was shared between every storage container. Like in Witcher... Much better game mechanics, LESS grind...

OR... Implement beasts of burden. I honestly do not know why they are never implemented in any game.

[crude onyx]

digging further inland from the coast you'll hit a green grass floor and not water (at least in beta)

[dim vale]

Curious... I'll have to try it. Do we have a limit for HOW DEEP we can dig? Never tested it

[fresh haven]

Yes there is

[crude onyx]

the floor i found inland is just above the water

[dim vale]

Maybe you hit the limit BEFORE hitting the water then

[crude onyx]

aye

[next plume]

I think the game knows when I want all the smoke and just makes every pirate ship disappear sometimes.

Nope, you can hangout in the edge and get warning, but they don't tell you that you are on timer. You can dance on edge and ignore all warnings and the timer goes out, instant-death

[bold obsidian]

At least one person did make it out. Sailed right off the map.

[next plume]

Did he perma die?

He became Davy Jones’ locker.

No, there's just a whole lot of empty water out there.

I worry that if folks do this it might affect their world saves when it comes time for the Ashlands to generate 😬

[next plume]

Maybe the Ashlands are the friends you made along the way

[compact quail]

how

[next plume]

There’s a lot of moments even after all the demo and like however long this early access been going that I’m still hella cheeks at this game, but imma toot my own horn for a second at getting kinda good at making ships crash and get stuck on eachother

[olive canyon]

that if those areas, which the game is expecting to be blank due to not having been loaded yet, arent blank that it might affect the world generation when it does come time to generate the Ashlands themselves

[bold obsidian]

[next plume]

I dunno fam. I think the developers could prolly tell you otherwise. But hey I’m not risking it for science

https://tenor.com/view/gülmek-komik-gif-1506407869824367367

[vernal basin]

the worst id expect is a new world being needed but not a whole character. even thats an if

[olive canyon]

like I said, just a worry - the world gen could well be smart enough to handle "unexpected" scenarios like that

[olive canyon]

oh for sure - I'd just be devastated if I put in 100s of hours into a world for a Base or 2 and then basically make it unplayable if the aforementioned came true 😔

I'm for sure not risking it, and we can't know until the Devs tell us or Ashlands comes out 🤷‍♂️

[next plume]

Lmao I forgot which side I boarded from and killed the last dude on the ship and sprinted to the deck and jumped off the wrong side and into the water instead of my boat.

[vernal basin]

they do their best to avoid any form of wipes.
there should be no issue generating new islands out of the current bounds

[knotty harness]

As far as I'm aware, everyone's maps have big open dead zone of nothing where the next new islands can go

[olive canyon]

they do, but one of the safeguards they have in place IS the "world boundary" - so if folks go outside of that, and load in the areas that arent expected to be loaded yet, then when it comes time to generate the Ashlands those "chunks" might already be generated

I'm not making any definitive claims, I'm just saying that the risk exists and since we dont have any clarifying information, nor past "Biome additions" to go from, we're kind of in the dark as to how it works

hopefully the worst case scenario is that the world gen would just look for the "next" available free space if the original expected location has already been generated

[finite sage]

Does this mean my progress will be wiped? 🐸

[knotty harness]

Yes. Yes you specifically are going to be wiped. Just you.

[next plume]

Rip

[abstract aspen]

yes just for you :D

[next plume]

[finite sage]

Reported for being massively stinky 😡

[olive canyon]

for sure, and I'm not trying to fearmonger - just pointing out that this assurance is said under the expectation that folks remain inside the "World Boundary", and that if you go outside and load up those regions preemptively, it might affect things when it comes time to generate Ashlands

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1120582767286161519.webp?size=40

[finite sage]

Those people deserve the wipe 😌

[next plume]

Now there u go for a weapon idea for slaying pirates. A bar of soap. Ts would clear a frigate in 20 seconds.

[glacial mica]

I hate.... building roofs

[rancid rune]

watah

[knotty harness]

I suspect that people aboard ships - including pirates - were cleaner than they get credit for. Ships are amazing places to breed disease if you don't keep the place clean, and ships had means aboard them for pumping up seawater to use for washing and general cleaning purposes. Then there was also the frayed bit of moorline used as toilet paper...

[wanton turtle]

Is there a resource out there besides doing it myself of seeing every weapons ascended bonuses? I can do it i just would prefer to not run through that tumbaga hellhole maze 20 times.

[olive canyon]

honestly sailors were likely cleaner than the average landlubber - and even they were cleaner than most folks give credit to

[knotty harness]

https://windrose-db.com/items/weapons

[olive canyon]

ah, windrose.tools has all the weapons and their ascended versions iirc

[next plume]

Yea but you guys keep assuming these are real to life pirates. This is fantasy pirates. They stinky doodoo bois.

[finite sage]

Maybe you, mine bathes 🐸

[next plume]

Need proof

[rancid rune]

That's odd, I posted an idea but somehow it doesn't appear on the list

[finite sage]

🛀

[next plume]

Maybe u a clean doodoo boi then.

[olive canyon]

there's a manual review process, to check for dupes and other "ideas" that may not be suitable for pushing to the public

[finite sage]

The cleanest doodoo boi around 😌

[next plume]

[hearty aurora]

Almost all the islands are prefabricated, only small details change, so the generation isn’t really that random

[vernal basin]

[next plume]

Let’s goo old spice endorsements for Windrose 😤

[olive canyon]

...I'm not sure why you're mentioning this, but yes - the individual island terrain generation is largely prefabricated
but the location of each island is what is unique, and if the game can only load an island into an "empty" region of the world map, then it could be an issue if folks have pushed those empty regions farther out than expected

anyway, I'm sure mods would prefer it left there since we have no clarifying information anyway and folks exploring outside the world boundary should know they do so at their own risk 😅

[wanton turtle]

I have not found the swamp tooth weapon yet but my inner unga bunga demands of me to find it for maximum bonking

[olive canyon]

ah, that is in the database but not in game iirc

😬

[wanton turtle]

[hearty aurora]

I think they’ll probably just add an island in an empty area that used to be only ocean, because the map has a lot of large empty sea areas, since islands from the same biome stay close to each other

[vernal basin]

swamps tooth...the club wasnt it?

its removed iirc

[wanton turtle]

Sadge

[rancid rune]

Ah fair enough

I hope that buccaneers & smugglers sails + hull colors are a good idea enough for the devs 👀

[wanton turtle]

For not wanting to spoil the game for myself I waited to join the discord until I was about to fight the swamp biome boss but a question I do have is there anywhere to check out current developer blogs or a road map of what is to come? Q&A's, etc.

[next plume]

I wonder what kinda cool boarding party gear ideas they got cooking up behind the scenes.

[bold obsidian]

It's definitely been suggested before a few times, so on the one hand it might get removed or merged as a duplicate, but on the other hand you've got a better chance of it happening.

[bold obsidian]

I vote flamethrowers.

[rancid rune]

I do hope that they will add more customisation options for the ship ig, more variants for what we have already and maybe possibility to change the helm, figurehead, crew clothing etc

[next plume]

Everyone uses the Dragon’s Breath Blunderbuss on the boarding party 😤 🔥

Or give everyone the one that makes them go flying that’d prolly be hilarious too

[bold obsidian]

https://tenor.com/view/dwarf-pirates-caribbean-of-the-gif-19918274

[next plume]

all I know is they better get us a for real first mate 😤

[olive canyon]

I'm hopeful for a rework to Ship Cosmetics on a whole and that we'll be able to apply any color scheme to any ship 🤞

[rancid rune]

Custom colors on the hull and on even sails could be neat tho, especially on ships like frigates with two hull colors !

[olive canyon]

Roadmap is in development, as they're still getting feedback and community ideas - only thing confirmed thus far is a Major Update, roughly in October, that will see the arrival of Region 4 - Ashlands

[next plume]

I’ll cry if the ore mining/refining is as tedious in the ashlands as it is in the swamp 😭

[bold obsidian]

Big thing for me would be the figurehead, that's almost as personal a choice for what to display as the colors you're flying.

[rancid rune]

This, definitely, and honestly I don’t like the Blackbeard ones at all, they are very cliché if I may and they take too much space when you aim at the front

[patent igloo]

Hey guys I got a question , atm there is nothing else to do with the insignia’s right? Just max out rep

[rancid rune]

Correct, I saw there’s mods to sell them, but maybe there’s gonna be more factions in the future so we never know, they can come up handy later on again

[rancid rune]

Gives extra challenge, I like it 👀

[patent igloo]

Tnks!!

[bold obsidian]

Could also add more levels and things to buy from the existing factions. I wouldn't throw them away, just maybe bury them on an island somewhere for safekeeping.

[rancid rune]

True that, maybe special boarding gears, new outfits, weapons / building blueprints, honestly hyped

[next plume]

I love a good challenge if they make it challenging, but tedious isn’t challenging to me

[rancid rune]

Sorry I’m not a native English speaker, what would you mean then by tedious ?

[bold obsidian]

Dull and repetitive.

[next plume]

Something that’s not difficult, that just takes time away from doing other more fun things.

[olive canyon]

hold on to them - ||we've got good reason to believe that the Factions will see a new Rep Cap increase, so you'll want them then||

[next plume]

Some boss versions of the boars and other animals would be kinda sick. Can you imagine a boss fight with a boar twice the size of the normal ones that does all the dirty tricks and then some?

Make me rage, daddy 🥵

[olive canyon]

the boars do have "boss" variants, or mini-boss variants at least - the Savage Boar and the Charging Boar

[hearty aurora]

I thought the game would have felines

[next plume]

If my boar isn’t throwing grenades at me, I DONT WANT IT 😭

[ancient kraken]

Look on the front of your dingy. That's the only feline you get. lol

[hearty aurora]

I mean big felines, on the islands as animals.

[ancient kraken]

Yeah, I know lol. Were big cats native to regions like that?

[bold obsidian]

Ocelots would probably be the closest. Or maybe some jaguars, since somebody already brought a shipload of maned wolves over from the mainland.

[wanton turtle]

Awesome! Looking forward to it. The optimization updates in the meantime are also much appreciated. Hoping more keep rolling out to address the fps drain base building causes with lighting.

[olive canyon]

we saw ||jaguars|| in some of the real early Dev footage - who knows whether they'll make an eventual return 🤔

[ebon hawk]

Well that was fun. Anyone know when were getting a new biome?

[hearty aurora]

I remember something like that, that’s why I asked

[olive canyon]

October (roughly)

[ebon hawk]

Thats tough 😂

[olive canyon]

a little, but such is the nature of Early Access 🤷‍♂️

[ebon hawk]

Maybe time to put this down for a year and forget about it so I can come back to a bunch of new content lol

[craggy storm]

I wish I could play windrose 😿

[olive canyon]

lots to do in the meantime tho - I've been stocking up on ship materials so that I'm ready with timber etc. when the new ship model arrives

[hearty aurora]

And my game gets really laggy at the base when there are too many lights, but I also have a 3060, so I’m planning to upgrade to a 5070 to see if the lag improves a bit

[ebon hawk]

There's honestly not that much content, might want to wait a while

[olive canyon]

you can ignore them, they're just trying to bait someone to buy the game for them

[wanton turtle]

Someone mentioned on a reddit post that discord overlay actually hurts the game performance a bit which would seem weird to me but I havent tested myself.

[bold obsidian]

Will we be getting other ship types to sail eventually? I've had this question ever since I saw the shipwrecked galleon, but it just occurred to me to ask it here

Yes. There are at least 2 more planned

[olive canyon]

yes - we know of at least 2 further ship types in development, and expect that one of the two will be added with Ashlands

[crystal pecan]

Do we know what those will be, or is that a surprise still?

[crystal pecan]

Ooooh

[olive canyon]

I expect the Galleon is what will be added with Ashlands, as it seems closer to full integration with faction variants and such

[pale nova]

Comfort lvl 25 achieved 🙂

[haughty niche]

take the next one

[flint sun]

I know comfort goes up based on the nuimber of unique categories of decorations (and upgrading certain things up to versions that give +2 instead of +1), but what governs the time the buff lasts? Is it linear along side the comfort rating (so a comfort 28 base will always last longer than a comfort 10 base); or is the duration based on other factors like having a larger base with more decorative elements from each category?

[compact quail]

the level governs how long the buff lasts

[surreal sierra]

Am pretty certain this one is a mod. I saw it a few times in the modding channels after EA released and never before then.

aim down the front cannon for a POV 😉 🤣

No, the Merchant is much smaller than that ship of the line

the image spoken of is nothing like a ship of the line, the galleon (reffered to here as ship of the line due to 3 decks of cannons) isnt the same as the 1st picture. it is for pic 2-3-4

Yeah alternate camera or zoom would be appreciated, already cant see past the frigate.

if u check the images listed here, picture 1, isnt the same boat as 2-3-4,
pic 1 Looks like the formentioned Merchant, however im too lazy to scroll back weeks of texts to look for the actual reference
pic 2-3-4 is a Ship of the line / Modern galleon(?)

[trail crescent]

SOL, 1st or 2nd rate

[bold obsidian]

...it's too quiet. Someone's setting up an ambush.

[olive canyon]

...I mean, yeah, Pic 1 is of the Galleon, Pics 2,3,4 are of the "Battleship" / Ship of the Line
we just dont have many pictures of the Galleon unfortunately 😔

[young light]

how do the AI ships turn so fast? they spin ina circle three times before i can turn once

[hearty aurora]

Set the speed to 2 and turn, it’s much faster than turning at speed 4

[vernal basin]

hmm...would you believe me if i told you it was worse once? xD

[young light]

i do that, they still so much faster than i am

[olive canyon]

naur, this image first posted by yar_master (#💬│windrose-chat message)

[hearty aurora]

Well, that I don’t know

[surreal sierra]

Word, seems I did miss this one entirely

[young light]

i need a drop anchor button so i can drift

[olive canyon]

now that there is a mod for - though I think its more of an instant stop than allowing you to drift

[hearty aurora]

I hope they add smaller and faster ships, like schooners

[olive canyon]

Unlikely - the Cutter would have been that niche and it got cut because it didnt handle well enough with the new ocean physics

[bold obsidian]

They tried at one point, apparently they had issues with the wave mechanics.

[young light]

i hope they add the starship enterprise. cant wait to see black beards face when i pull up on him with that

[hearty aurora]

That’s sad, so there will only be medium-sized ships then?

[bold obsidian]

Don't be ridiculous. It would be the aircraft carrier.

[olive canyon]

unless we get islands big enough to have rivers, I dont see any reason a ship smaller than the Ketch will be introduced

[bold obsidian]

They might revisit it. Just because they weren't able to get it to work before, doesn't mean they might not try again after other issues get resolved.

[hearty aurora]

I hope that over time they try to improve the physics of these ships, smaller ones would be so cool

[young light]

how do yall do the missions where you need to board a ship alone and take out like 15 dudes?

[haughty niche]

let crew take them

[young light]

cant

theres no board option

[haughty niche]

||the undead dudes?||

[olive canyon]

ah, that ones a bit unique - either you fight an obscene number of enemies, or you just run it

[bold obsidian]

What level is your gear?

[young light]

my gear is lvl 10, but its a 1v15

[hearty aurora]

I think those missions where you examine things on stationary ships can be done by just running through without having to kill anyone

[bold obsidian]

Yeah, just need to touch the crate.

[haughty niche]

if you got an objective to get something, just empty your inventory, run to hold and grab it, quest items don't get dropped

[vernal grotto]

seriusly considering playing through this.

[young light]

ive been hitting them twice then running away. il try that but my worrie is they will souround me before i can get out

[olive canyon]

I dont think so, based on these comments from yar_master:
#💬│windrose-chat message
#💬│windrose-chat message

[young light]

they did infact suround me before i could get out

[hearty aurora]

I did all missions of that type by just running past everything and examining the objective

[bold obsidian]

Even if they kill you after you touch the objective, the quest moves forward.

[young light]

hopefully they add a better way to do those because thats such a bad mission design tbh. theres no reason the troops shouldnt be able to board lol

[hearty aurora]

I don’t know why, but I think those wrecked ships look really cool. They could make them a random event that happens at sea

[haughty niche]

so i tried shooting sails with chainshots to slow them down, sails looked damaged but after 15 shots i just killed the bugger instead. Then i read that they botched up something in a patch somewhere. now i just hope they fix it

[vernal grotto]

why did i get a full set of privateer gear on this new character and world?

[haughty niche]

are you complaining? you ungratefull....

[olive canyon]

definitely submit that feedback via the game's main menu

[hearty aurora]

I would think it’d be perfect if they added bigger islands with rivers and lagoons, maybe even caves in the middle. The first islands are really beautiful and give off a great Caribbean vibe, it’s just a shame that they’re so small

[vernal grotto]

turns out it was temporary, just on the ship intro

[flint sun]

Ah, so chainshot isn't functional right now? Every now and then I try to use it, and regardless of where I shoot the ship, it doesn't really seem to do anything. So I go back to regular canonballs.

[olive canyon]

I think ||based on certain story elements implying that the next area might be more "mainland"|| that Ashlands will be larger than our current "islands" - could open the door to in-land waterways, though that seems at odds with the theme of Ashlands itself ofc

[haughty niche]

ye it could do with main menu info dump in a corner: currently chainshot not working for people new to game that have'nt followed patch nots from day 1

it confuses me a sec every time i hear Ashlands. i get flashbacks to Valheim i am thinking why are you talking about valheim

[olive canyon]

ngl, after learning that Valheim also has an Ashlands I do lowkey wish they had chosen a different name 😅

[bold obsidian]

I'd be amused if there was a POI featuring viking skeletons there.

[rugged rapids]

I absolutely love how the custom markers work on the map.. so fun

[uncut briar]

when will the undead island shield come down? I wanna kill skeletons

[haughty niche]

ohh a longboat wreck somewhere and Draugr, would be awesome colab

[rugged rapids]

Being able to mark the misty orchids and clay deposits >>

[olive canyon]

Pro Tip: get the Merchant Contracts and buy your Clay instead

waaaaaaaaaaayyyy better

[green coral]

Clay is easy though. One quick run around any of the beginning islands along the beach and you'll hit at least 5.

[bold obsidian]

Counterpoint: I am cheap.

[olive canyon]

Coin comes easier than patience, and the tedium of Clay collecting eats all of mine

[rugged rapids]

haha I havent even finished ||rescuing the sailors to rebuild the ship at the beginning|| yet

[green coral]

I find this to be hilarious though. Maybe its how I grew up, but to me, paying for something you can easily get for yourself due to convenience is silly talk.

[olive canyon]

ah, then tbf you dont have a lot of use for Clay yet anyway 😅

[rugged rapids]

potions is about it yeah

YAY it just started storming in game..

[green coral]

Especially with all the incoming new content, where money is probably gonna be a factor.

[rugged rapids]

this is so real.. unless i get lazy.. which happens more often than it should

[olive canyon]

eh, I'm normally stingy, but Piastres pile up so easy if you do any ship combat at all

[hearty aurora]

Well, with time and more investment thanks to Early Access, they could expand the starting islands.

[marsh path]

stupid plague crocodiles

[green coral]

I've farmed 5 or 6 clay patches in less than 10 minutes. xD

And yeah @olive canyon that's fair. I have a suspicion they made the merchants for exactly that reason; so people could farm less and do 'fun' stuff more. I just happen to be one of the few people who find farming somehow enjoyable as long as it's not tedious. Lol, you should see the glorious modifications of some of my iron mines. xD

[rugged rapids]

oooh id like to see haha

[green coral]

Personally, I would have made farming activities cost less stamina and require fewer hits as you got better tools, but I guess either one works in it's own way.

[surreal sierra]

Which is SAD! I want my cutter back my beloved

[green coral]

Let me take some pictures. xD I recently modded one up pretty nicely.

Ok, mining tour! We start out here... cause ain't nobody got time to walk around a mountain:

[abstract aspen]

i want my undo button back :(

[vernal basin]

https://tenor.com/view/look-at-this-graph-nickelback-gif-12683147

[green coral]

so I did a little building:

just a little...

[hearty aurora]

That’s sad, it looked like such a cool ship

[green coral]

just a little, I swear!

so small! you'd hardly notice it.

[vernal basin]

a "galeon" was (or rather is) indeed in the works

[green coral]

I decided I didn't want goats in my mine, so I walled it off. Little did I know, huh?

added some ramps and stuff so I could store the excess and avoid random goat attacks...

...and of course reach the hidden spots.

all it cost was time, a little wood and plant fiber.

[vapid badge]

do we need wait 6 month from now for ashland?

[uneven pier]

5

[rugged rapids]

thats all so cool!

i love it!

(sorry i disappeared.. had to get up cause the maintenance showed up to fix our AC.. sadly they have to come back tomorrow)

[rugged rapids]

it all looks so nice though

[green coral]

It makes it much easier to get to the various nodes, store excess stuff so you only take the ore, and drop off extra stuff you get from the goats or whatnot.

[rugged rapids]

i have yet to encounter a goat.. should i be scared haha

[olive canyon]

you can still try it via mods!

[green coral]

Also making a platform you need to jump on makes you safe from enemies, since they can't jump or climb in the least. Most of the goats that appear in there end up getting stuck, trying to climb the walls. xD

[abstract aspen]

undo button in the build menu :( it caused too many issues back then so it got removed..

[olive canyon]

you also end up needing an obscene amount of clay if you choose certain build styles, so collecting it all manually would be... tedious 😅

[olive canyon]

devestating to hear, considering its a pretty popular request over on the suggestions/ideas forum 😬

[compact quail]

my mousewheel then click is my undo button

[digital spindle]

Salutationsss

[rugged rapids]

haha yeah

[peak ferry]

Okay. There's a building issue and I can't finish my house. 😣

[cursive kite]

Any chatter about when the next update will be coming?

[peak ferry]

October. 6 months from April.

[uncut briar]

same month arc raiders realses big update too, wonder if thats on purpose....

wait till gta6 releases (if it ever does), of HL3, all games will be dead for 3-6 months lol

[untold oriole]

i will never understand the appeal of GTA

[rugged rapids]

officially repaired the ship

[untold oriole]

I dunno, I could definitely see how it could be, but when I actually ran around looking for and marking all the clay deposits, I probablyi found like 12 on one island and ended up with at least 5 or 600 clay

[untold oriole]

https://tenor.com/view/goat-gif-5393564689460670681

[haughty niche]

well technically windrose and GTA is the same: both outlaws doing illegal activities in a means of transportation. i don't play gta

[untold oriole]

clay

[haughty niche]

its the same concept of Star Wars and Harry Potter; same thing, different wrappings

[old depot]

imagine needing to gather clay

[untold oriole]

it took less time than waiting for an order, and it cost me nothing

[quick patio]

What a glorious day it will be when GTA6 releases, the internet may crash

[haughty niche]

imagine waiting and punch out before it ever releases. i fear that would be the case for me and Elder Scroll 6

[untold oriole]

how many times does todd howard have to lie before people will stop believing him?

[snow pier]

Is bromeliad common?

[quick patio]

Not really, they’re spread out in the swamps

[atomic thorn]

I only started finding it when i needed it, lol

[snow pier]

I need some and I've found like 4 in the whole game

[untold oriole]

it's common enough, but it being red makes it not stick out very well among all the pink stuff

[snow pier]

it does have a plant though

is it only found in the plague areas?

[quick patio]

Go in the plague areas and look hard for the red flowers

[atomic thorn]

So I have finished all we can and the next update is October?

[untold oriole]

I'm not 100% sure on that, but that's the only place I could really find it

[haughty niche]

i was stoked when i heard about starfield but damn what a letdown last i layed it was october 25th 2023. it released 6th of september so only 2 months i played it

[untold oriole]

Fallout 4 and Skyrim are what burned me, but I can't imagine having actually bought starfailed and still wanting to play another bethesda game

[quick patio]

Fallout… what an amazing tv series. The games, not so much

[untold oriole]

3 and new vegas were good for their time

[quick patio]

Yea i can agree with that

4 was so far behind, graphics wise that i couldn’t get with it

[untold oriole]

4 wasn't COMPLETELY terrible, but it's not REALLY a fallout game. fallout is supposed to have choices that affect things in the game. But in 4, you can tell an NPC you're not interested in the meanest way imagineable, and they'll just go "haha, I know you're just joking. Here, I'll mark it on your map" and then it gives you the quest anyway.

So you can't do like a goodie two-shoes run and then an evil run. they'll both turn out the same

[haughty niche]

ye my honest opinion: Triple A devs rarely ever produce a hit anymore. People are tired of games developed with people with no interest in gaming but all about shareholders and profit. Indie devs are seriously the ones we should support. just look at starfield and that budget vs stuff Like Stardew valley. 1 single man and its one of the top sellers on steam

Valheim and windrose, millions sold in record time and i bet they used hell of alot less money than triple A's

because they make a game they actually like themself

[uncut gyro]

I've been gaming for enough decades to know this is absolute truth.

Games made as passion projects by dedicated folks make games they want to play.

[haughty niche]

my pc gaming started in around 2000's and i think Morrowing was 1 of the first games i bought

*morrowind

[uncut gyro]

First game I bought was Warcraft: Orcs and Humans, but the first games I played were Mario, Duck Hunt, and The Legend of Zelda. Still got the gold cartridge somewhere 😄

[haughty niche]

have to say the last really Triple A that rocked my world for real was Mass Effect 2

[untold oriole]

I still got my Power Glove

[uncut gyro]

[storm magnet]

[untold oriole]

yes. I had to take a newer picture and a video because I came across some dude claiming it was him, trying to sell t-shirts and NFTs and whatnot with my face plastered on them

[green coral]

Did you know there is a way to get the rested bonus without the Bonfire?

[uncut gyro]

Eyyy, that makes you a legend! Meme on, champ 😄

[untold oriole]

the new one

[snow pier]

I hate plague hunters so much

[green coral]

If you place a cookfire, you can get a weak rested buff from it, and it doesn't require a Bonfire to place.

[haughty niche]

ye and that is another thing with triple A's they don't know their market anymore. i know its hard to hit the mark when your audience range from 13 up to 60'ish. many of the gamers that started gaming like me in the 2000 we are pushing 50+ now. but if they started actually making games they like instead of market analysis for most profit i think they would succeed more often

[green coral]

The new one of what?

[uncut gyro]

Interesting. Can you add any comfort items to it, or is it just a 1 quality rest?

[uncut gyro]

#💬│windrose-chat message

[green coral]

It's just a level one buff, but you can place it anywhere, and it gives you 5 minutes. It's kinda useful for mining and such.

[uncut gyro]

fair enough! It's been a while since I made one, but is there an advantage to this over dropping a bonfire for 5 wood?

[green coral]

Bonfires restrict respawning of resources. One of mine is even restricting respawning of trees that are just NEAR it. So if you placed a Bonfire in a mine, no more ore would appear.

[uncut gyro]

Aye that's true. I'll just break it once I get the bonus tbh

[surreal sierra]

Trees dont respawn

[haughty niche]

i tried placing a bofire inside a mine because i was annoyed by spawning mobs, but they still spawned while i was mining

[green coral]

I'm pretty sure the cookfire doesn't interfere though.

[marsh path]

Normal trees don't respawn. Divi-divi do

[green coral]

I mean like coconut trees won't make more coconuts; that kind of thing.

[surreal sierra]

Divi divi and I believe plague wood does respawn but normal trees dont

[green coral]

Correct. I was talking more about the resources coconut tree make. Once inside a Bonfire radius, they stop.

And apparently even if they're just near the border of one, they also get affected.

[surreal sierra]

Weird, I havnt had that issue

hmm

[green coral]

I had left four trees to use for the purpose, but so far none of them have made any more coconuts.

Two of them are outside the radius of the Bonfire.

[uncut gyro]

Whoa, Coconut trees respawn their coconuts? I gathered a bunch around the start, but as I am an equally successful and lazy pirate, ended up buying a few orders when I wanted to stock up.

[green coral]

Yup. After a while, they grow more.

Lol, this is why I said its a little crazy to me to depend on the merchants for some things. xD Doesn't one of them sell plant fiber!? xD

Gotta be more energetic, ya mangy dogs!

[marsh path]

I'm gonna name my future frig "Don't Put Bananas In My Butt"

[green coral]

Man... I NEED the devs to fix drop priorities IMMEDIATELY. If something drops from an item... like plant fiber from a plant or meat from an animal... it needs to go INSTANTLY into the players inventory, not fall to the ground, then let physics and gravity effect it, THEN let the player have it!

increased pick up range mod i like

[untold oriole]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIVc-cH_3j0

[green coral]

It's less the range than I kill something or chop something, then I get SOME of the resources, and later walk past the same place to see more stuff waiting on the ground... assuming I even go back through the same place a second time. Items are straight up getting left behind through no fault of my own because of how they're handled.

[untold oriole]

They didn't for me. I'm not sure how it got there, but there's a bonfire in a copper mine in my world, and the copper just forms around it

[green coral]

Half of it goes to me, the other half will slide, or take a second or two to actually be touchable to pick up. It's kinda mental.

[untold oriole]

I tried putting one at the silver farm too, it didn't do anything. All the enemies still spawn there

[green coral]

Oh really? I remember someone telling me not to do it because it stopped the ore from reforming. I wanted one in there to counter the zombies spawning inside the mine. Does it prevent them from appearing?

[green coral]

Oh, enemies too!? Weird.

So this means I can make my mines into full rested buff areas.... neat.

Also doin' it immediately, lol.

I wonder why it wouldn't stop the enemies from spawning though... Did you put it near where they appear, or on a different level?

[uneven pier]

its a location/poi thats why

[untold oriole]

yeah I walked in there one day to get copper and saw friggin doc galen buried in copper deposits next to the bonfire.

it definitely keeps certain things from spawning but it's not consistent. My buddy's world had a clay patch just outside his gate, within bonfire range that would NOT respawn until we got to the swamp, but then it does nothing to the copper or the drowned at the silver farm

[green coral]

Ah, so part of the basic mechanics of the area. Wouldn't that prevent you from placing the Bonfire to begin with though? I know those places seem to hate the idea of you having a bed inside their area.

[untold oriole]

well when it comes to the silver farm specifically, preventing enemies from spawning there would keep others from being able to complete the POI, so I figured that probably took extra consideration

[green coral]

Sounds like a rebalancing of such priorities might also be in order. If I find and secure a place to sleep inside the POI of a mine at least, it shouldn't be banned. Just need to be sure it's not a mob spawn point so you're not gettin' stabbed in your sleep.

[green coral]

So the silver mine is a mission type POI?

[frosty hawk]

hey there carious is there only 3 main bosses at the moment one for each new zone \

[drifting moat]

Hey haven’t played in some weeks anything new on Windrose.? Havent seen any major updates

[green coral]

Yes. One per zone.

[untold oriole]

there's no quest associated with it that i'm aware of, but it has armored drowned that drop keys that open unique chests there

[green coral]

Nothing new is planned til around October I think.

[drifting moat]

Thanks you🙏🏽 can’t wait

[green coral]

Ah, ok. That's sorta kind of a mission then. At least I think so.

[glacial idol]

Does anybody know when the Ashlands comes out?

[real current]

We're probably looking towards a late Fall release; late Oct. or Nov. --- hopefully.

[abstract wedge]

Is there any better way to harvest plant fiber then swinging your sword?

[real current]

Use the shovel and set it to "Flatten" It works on bushes as well as the beach's dry sea weed.

[glacial idol]

Aaah fair, Thank you for the reply

[abstract wedge]

Dear lord that helps but now there’s holes everywhere 😭😂

[untold oriole]

I heard a rumor that when exactly 13257 people ask they'll release it

[real current]

Flatten, not dig. Only need to do it once. AND you can fill in those holes too. 🙂 If you'd like some exercise out there.

[abstract wedge]

I’m on controller I’m pressing light attack am I suppose to do something else?

[tardy cape]

So, are Guineas used for anything besides building and decoration sets?

[real current]

Flatten wouldn't be a light attack for the shovel...not sure what the controller command would be.
The shovel does have an attack function too, seperate from Dig, Flatten, and FIll-in.

[untold oriole]

no but you see that little menu at the bottom, just above the hotbar? those are your shovel functions, and it looks like you use the bumpers or triggers to scroll thru them

[abstract wedge]

Dude I swear if you talk to me like I’m a idiot again ima make you walk the plank I HAVE IT ON FLATTEN

[calm merlin]

just beat the game so far, can't wait for more 😊

That's alright, Discord lets you leave notes on people's profiles, so I won't make the mistake of helping him in the future

[untold oriole]

I know they're on youtube

[real current]

The "Block" feature is nice. This way I won't fall into that trap.

[untold oriole]

Yeah, but the only problem with that is it'll say "blocked message" in the chat every time somebody who's blocked types something, which ends up being more distracting

[real current]

I'm gettin' old and by this time of day things are a bit blurry. @untold oriole Ah, well, that's a good point.

[untold oriole]

that, and I can't watch 'em flounder if they're blocked

[rugged rapids]

sigh.. i shall wait and pray..

[real current]

Still, the problem is curious. I've used the flatten technique and it's never left holes. Curious indeed. 😉

[crude onyx]

get an animal product merchant, put it on an island, in the Caribbean, 10 feet from the shore: doesnt sell fish

[green coral]

Why do I feel like, from his reaction, he's NOT using flatten, but just THINKS he is?

[green coral]

'WHAT?! Fish aren't ANIMALS! What kind of crazy talk is that?!'

'Next you'll be tellin' me BIRDS are animals! PFFT!'

[untold oriole]

to be fair, he's just the guy selling you stuff, he doesn't go get it himself. He's not there catching fish while waiting for customers to show up. He sends an invisible boat to go get it for you

[rugged rapids]

my silly little camp.. (dw i did have a tent.. im just repositioning it

[green coral]

You get the same items, but the 'where' is randomized. Visit as many POIs as you can.

it's random. My friend and I will open the same chest at the same time and get different items

but like, you're not gonna find a plain green club or something in the swamp, or a plague pistol in the jungle

and on that note, I never found a plague pistol in my world at all for some reason

I have one, but I kinda unwittingly hijacked it from my friend's world

[normal rune]

hijacked you say

[untold oriole]

well i picked it up from his chest because I thought it would teach me how to make it, i forgot to put it back, and then he quit playing

[normal rune]

lol

[untold oriole]

so I don't know if my single player world just didn't spawn it in because it already existed in one of my chests, or I just got unlucky

[peak ferry]

I wanna finish my hoouusseee! 😣

[snow pier]

Cause he’s getting things that are harder to get. Spend 5 minutes fishing in the ocean and get 80 fillets worth.

Similar to mining.

I do wish you could bring your crew and have them work with you or maybe they could assist you though.

I learned today that the second bonus for the reliable blunderbus only reduces powder usage not ammo. It still fires two bullets lol.

This is what I get for assuming.

[keen dock]

Do we have a creative mode in this game? Were building doesn't require resources and blueprints are unlocked?

[uncut gyro]

No creative mode (yet? windrose.support/ideas might have one already)

[uncut gyro]

'ere it be:

[marsh path]

I was just about to look for a link for suggestions

[shut pilot]

im in no rush at all just wondering have anyone caught wind when maybe the update is so i can determine how and when ill do mods in my server, its RP base only reason im asking ❤️

[west granite]

what are the chances of us getting wooden shingle roof pieces?

[scarlet trout]

The targeting system in this game is extremely irritating.

[abstract wedge]

Just wanted to say thanks for the help earlier just the derp guy came out of nowhere with the back handed comment after I sent a whole photo showing what I had it set on and it irked the hell outta me 😂

[pulsar sluice]

Totally just got sneak attacked by a goat and knocked on my butt and nuked by a couple wolves before i could stand back up....

[abstract wedge]

That sounds like a average pirates life

Want some good sea shanties here you go

[abstract wedge]

Yeah it could be a whole lot smoother specially when it doesn’t let you switch to the next target or if it doesn’t auto to the thing attacking you at hand

I have died to it being stuck on something 3 feet from me and it not switching to the thing clubbing me

[scarlet trout]

What kills me is when it swaps to another target 10 miles away when I'm in the middle of fighting a dude right next to me.

If I want to target lock something it shouldnt just swap unless I cancel it and target something else.

Is there a feedback place?

[abstract wedge]

Yes #1493348541177794601

Would be the best spot to put it

[pearl adder]

Howdy

[scarlet trout]

They have buttons to cycle targets. It just seems so stupid for it to auto swap.

[olive canyon]

via the game's main menu there's a feedback form

[olive canyon]

thats for bug reports, not general feedback

[solar token]

Sup

[ebon hawk]

Put it off all day.... Beat the high priestess. Sad it's over 😔 Really great game so far. The mixture of sekiro/ dark souls style combat with a survival craft type of game loop was a really good time. Hope we get more content sooner than later.

[unreal gorge]

Time to spend the next 140 hrs building a city now. 👍

[solar token]

damn

I straight up got ignored

[ebon hawk]

I don't have the patience for that I didn't even max out comfort in my base 😂
