they're both 50?

you must have organised trait

[candid chasm]

[thorny sonnet]

oh weird

[candid chasm]

ok no

wooden crates either give 40 or 60 lbs

depending on carpentry lvl

[thorny sonnet]

you would need carpentry 7 for that

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2688538916 Thoughts?

[candid chasm]

I JUST WANTED TO MOVE CAR PARTS FFS

[thorny sonnet]

Nice progress

[thorny sonnet]

Pretty mid

adds way too much fuel you won't need

every barrel you find will have like 5 full canisters of fuel and those barrels are everywhere

[candid chasm]

Fair enough

[thorny sonnet]

I'll actually make one of these myself lol

[candid chasm]

time to finally head into mauldrough though lmao

[thorny sonnet]

good luck

[candid chasm]

this is where my runs seem to end the most ngl

still waiting on the fracture to heal also

[thorny sonnet]

lol

those take a damn long while

[candid chasm]

i think i was told i needed to wait a week?

[thorny sonnet]

don't remember but that sounds right

[candid chasm]

ik mualdroughs a shitshow i wonder how bad LV is gonna be

[thorny sonnet]

yeah lol

I made a thread aswell for the funzies

mostly to document the insane starting luck I had like wow

[candid chasm]

damm

love helevents that are just hey heres a big meta event

VHS store went good, I wanna grab a lot of books and spend time reading and watching the vhs

Vhs haul

ngl MRE's would be a godsend for healing rn

[thorny sonnet]

jeez that's a lotta vhs tapes

[thorny sonnet]

I'm stupid but what are MREs lol

I mean I know you eat them but

how are they good for healing

[candid chasm]

food item that gives 60 hunger

[thorny sonnet]

is 60 hunger good lol

[candid chasm]

i think the max mood for hunger i think you get at 100 hunger

or 0 hunger

idrk how the system works

[thorny sonnet]

hm

well I guess that's good then

[candid chasm]

to give a practical example it can take you from hungry to full to bursting moodle

Oh yeah

for anyone wondering

[thorny sonnet]

ggs

[candid chasm]

also still no fucking sewing needle

hope to god i find one here

[thorny sonnet]

rip

[candid chasm]

so many zombies

MOTHERFUCKING FINALLY AGHHHHHH

also suffered a hand and head ingury

[thorny sonnet]

Lmfao I literally found 2 sewing kits on my first day

why did that take you so long

[candid chasm]

14 days and 911 kills

[thorny sonnet]

crazy

[candid chasm]

for fucking real

now im looking for books

and theres suprisingly none in these storage crates

[thorny sonnet]

yeah just go to a couple bookstores and you should be set

[candid chasm]

thats the plan once i get to westpoint

am debating if i wanna chage where i wanna base tho

cand really decide tho, constantly randomly losing strength irl isnt helping either

Also found the bag of concrete poweder i needed

[candid chasm]

i am getting some dogshit rng this run

i have somehow not found the emergency frequency yet

also guess who forgot about slow healer

[candid chasm]

TIME TO BINGE SKILL BOOKS AND VHS

Stats Before

going 1x on speed so itll take a bit cause im reading and watching skills

[candid chasm]

downe

[thorny sonnet]

That's some crazy skills lol

[thorny sonnet]

Wait what's that

[candid chasm]

OK SO I died

a zombie fucking materials brhind me and stunlocked me how the fuck it didnt appear on my radar when i walked up aiming didnt see it i dont know

long stgory short dont fight near cars

[candid chasm]

the emergency broadcast radio frequency

[thorny sonnet]

rip

[candid chasm]

fr

i did find a crowbar in my starting house on my next run so there are positives

im not really feelling the LV base so imma find a new spot any and all sugggestions are welcome

[thorny sonnet]

If you wanna relax and not have to clear a lot do rosewood or riverside gated community

otherwise muldraugh mccoy or fenced house, west point bar or gated community and a warehouse in the middle of the map are all good places

LV outskirts also have some good base locations

[formal wharf]

i recommend taking keen hearing on your next playthrough, youll never get stuck up on with it

[candid chasm]

Fair it also didn’t help I was right beside a car lol

[formal wharf]

ah well gl on your next playthrough

[candid chasm]

thanks

ANYWAYS UPDATE ON THAT

the trouble think to find rn is somehow cigarettes cause i didnt rush there spawns

also read through my first skill book, A metalwork V1 book this conclludes day 1

welp got to the conveniance store and behold ciggies

also no exosuit in the clinic ):

[vital pulsar]

117 errors??????

[candid chasm]

I cannot be bothered to fix em since they don’t really affect anything

Also don’t know how

[vital pulsar]

I've only ever had one random error due to the gas fill stop sound not playing

[candid chasm]

Uh

[candid chasm]

.

[vital pulsar]

FIVE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED EIGHTY SIX????????

[candid chasm]

Yeah

They just kinda quickly pile up over time idk why

[candid chasm]

@thorny sonnet any base recemondations for near water areas?

[thorny sonnet]

what area more or less

[candid chasm]

No limits on area just near a viable fishing spot

I’m wanting fishing to be my main food source

And farming ig

[candid chasm]

after 256 hrs ya girl has actually stared marking shit on her map

[thorny sonnet]

Lol good job

[candid chasm]

fr lmao

[thorny sonnet]

Not sure tbh

well obviously somewhere near the river for infinite water

[candid chasm]

also i found an annoted map of rosewood and im checking out a house that was marked to have some guns but im not seeing any

[thorny sonnet]

otherwise country club, well houses ect

[thorny sonnet]

Did you check every cabinet

and every room

[candid chasm]

no guns

[thorny sonnet]

anything else though

Like idk baseball bats

[candid chasm]

most interesting think is a military patch, 3m comfort grip gloves, and a can opener

[thorny sonnet]

pretty sure it just spawns a random stash, not guaranteed to have guns even if the map says so

depending on your luck the stash can be great or absolute dog water

[candid chasm]

does anything here even qualify as a stash?

cabinits legit just had normal loot

[thorny sonnet]

Technically military patch does I think

if it's not in the normal loot rotation

otherwise mabye it just didn't spawn idk

[candid chasm]

iv seen them in closets and shit

[thorny sonnet]

did you check EVERY room

even the small storage closets hidden in the corner lol

also if the house has a shed check that

[candid chasm]

d

yep

lemme double check the shed

[thorny sonnet]

yeah

can you send the map too rq

[candid chasm]

im at the stashed some guns house

[thorny sonnet]

try and check the here next place aswell

which is the school

[candid chasm]

sure

[thorny sonnet]

I don't remember how the maps work but mabye the loot spawned in that place

[candid chasm]

though i gotta sleep first cause time

[thorny sonnet]

btw I forgot this mod also adds other gas can variants

[candid chasm]

school crimilatity time

[thorny sonnet]

so yeah idk if you don't care about all the barrels full of fuel you can get it ig

[thorny sonnet]

Finding guns in the school lockers would be crazy

[candid chasm]

ok unironcially tho

this is halarious

[thorny sonnet]

Lol I mean

they're BBs

atleast not bullets lmfao

[candid chasm]

"technically" treated the same though lmao

schools got nothing besides guides to create weaponry

[thorny sonnet]

rip

well is that normal for schools

lol

[candid chasm]

a lot of usefull mags tho

no generator mag tho ):

oh nvm i fucking missed it

[thorny sonnet]

lol gg

[candid chasm]

blessed run ong

pure curosity do you horde mags, books, and vhs you've alreayd watched/read?

welp ya girls feeling irl tired so gn

[thorny sonnet]

gn

[thorny sonnet]

I hoard one of each book no matter if i've read or not

to make a nice old organised bookshelf with every existing book and magazine

[candid chasm]

SAMEEE

[candid chasm]

funny enough my current current favorite trait is cold blooded

deciding to do military fit for this run

[thorny sonnet]

nice

[candid chasm]

so many moodles ughhhhh

[thorny sonnet]

just eat, smoke and sleep lol

[candid chasm]

fr

this happens every time that i try to deck out a bunch of shit lmao

[thorny sonnet]

I get like 50 moodles whenever I move more than 2 garbage bags around lol

[candid chasm]

lmao fr

[candid chasm]

I now have a choice

sorry i got distracted by loot boxes

but to loot the prision or to not loot it

[candid chasm]

thank you random zombiod next to the military surplus store

[candid chasm]

I have decided to stick to military theming clothing

just realised the shotgun i have has 24 rounds

[candid chasm]

shotgun and house alarm have alerted a big horde but i believe id win

also holy shit i need alot of shotgun ammo

ohh actually liking the crossbow

[feral whale]

you know you would have been better off looting residential houses and looking for hte sewing box haha

[candid chasm]

different life

also fucking sewing kits will not appear untill i find a sewing needle istg this skill hates my guts

[candid chasm]

yk what,

fuck it imma live at the country club in riverside

but like maybe in a side building cause the main builing seems daunting to reinforce

Mayhaps here actually?

[wintry frost]

you are miiiiiiles away from civilization there

also when the trees grow in youre done for

because getting out will be nearly impossible

[candid chasm]

naaaaaaaa

me?? never

but fr tho im hard pressed for ideas on where to base

[wintry frost]

what’s your spawn city?

[candid chasm]

rosewood but im down to travel legit anywhere

[wintry frost]

this is a good one

it’s just west of riverside proper

it’s got a river backyard for fishing, lots of wood for building, two driveways, bushes to slow you down if you come in hot, lots of farming space, and it’s secluded enough that zeds won’t be up ur ass

[candid chasm]

Aighteo

Thanks

[candid chasm]

fucking nerddddd

there are so many zombies here why, also like 4 trailors just sitting in the grass but whyyyy???

that was the report for day 8

oh yeah also both my hands got scratched so imma spend the day reading while they heal, I want both my hands to be in good condition before going back out

[candid chasm]

ok so its official crossbow is my favorite weapon rn

OK SO UPDATE

i got a fucking hit on my arm facing a zombie and fucking insta died

actually pissed rn am going to bed

[thorny sonnet]

💀

[stone vector]

damn

[feral whale]

This documentation is really sad

Died 2x already

Wow

[candid chasm]

ya girl is somewhat new so its to be expected, and im adjusting to different scaling so now that im hopefully into the swing things'll go better

this time I'll just make a thread and hopefully update it every like 5 days

or maybe not idfk

as long as i dont do anything stupid

[candid chasm]

day 1 ya girlie found a duffel bag before actual clothing some fucking how

[thorny sonnet]

Me when I have to travel all the way to a school to get any form of back container

[candid chasm]

Don’t forget to check the medical shops for power armor!

[thorny sonnet]

Me when not playing britas

[finite axle]

Me looking through my starter house after choosing deprived:

[candid chasm]

Always take deprived

[finite axle]

one of my addons got rid of deprived as a option
