so.... leap suspender belt actually does, exactly what I want for mobility shenanigains, and isn't a unique item. so. yay that.

of course no double jump but I barely used it for double jumping anyways.

#

of course, it power drains a lot faster too.... but

#

well thats what I get for trying to find a stand in for a unique

hybrid tartan
#

can't always be perfect

#

looks like, of the anvil contracts, the one to get into Imperial testing staion 10 gives ya the most xp and mons, heh

tired gate
#

because Imp Test 10 is a bloody nightmare

glossy dust
#

there should be a unique for the suspender too lemme check

#

boo the only unique suspensor belt is the wings

hybrid tartan
#

I think ima bounce for the night, thanks folks

glossy dust
#

hmm odd iv lost building access in the base near the anvil

#

and gah no way to just leave old vehicles in the base for others

hybrid tartan
#

you can adjust vehicle permissions and add everyone on your friends list and guild list to em. Not sure on base stuff.

glossy dust
#

and doing 4th trial

glossy dust
#

oh yes and if you havent been to the top of the big rock yet, there is a good blood bag unique bp up there

spare field
#

There's always a Unique blueprint in the big outposts?

glossy dust
#

not always but there is usually a larger chest that has extra sparkles when it has one

spare field
#

Got it

pure moth
#

Or the research station and abandonded ship

#

Got tooth...

#

weirdly enough
The vehicle backup tool is not lost

#

would be in hindsight too punishing when you loose that as well

glossy dust
#

yea and the vehicle in it is safe to somehow

pure moth
#

after you "safely" stored them

#

I can see it from a mechanic standpoint

#

lore wise not

#

but mechanic and out of respect for the player

spare field
#

Ah, being the only one on the server means the Worm is always looking for me

spare field
#

I should have gotten a bike. Traversing the desert on foot is a pain

glossy dust
#

are the wormies smelling your footsies?

spare field
#

Yes and also it takes time

pure moth
#

FYI bike is not entirely safe

#

Bike gone...

spare field
#

I know

#

But it's at least faster

#

Anyways, I got some good loot. I need to find a better palce to build a base... Can you build on top of cliffs?

pure moth
#

Wherever you can place a fief console

#

and given the structure has enough support

glossy dust
#

and is far enough away from any landmarks

pure moth
#

I was on my way to next zone....

#

almost reached safety of rocks

glossy dust
#

bugger

#

so from starter area to the north?

pure moth
#

yeah

#

About here he got me

#

Was driving from Griffin up north

#

Planetologist is a class to learn somewhere right ?

#

Cause it sounds mighty fine to me

spare field
#

Yeah, it's a class we don't have at character creation.

#

I'm mostly picking up different classes for repair skills tbh

#

Vehicle repair bonuses sound like a really good idea to extend the life on things.

#

I also wish I had the goddamn Recycler already

glossy dust
#

there is a quest in griffins reach that leads you to the planetologist

#

then you need to find him again after that to learn intermediate

#

just left 2 full medium blood bags in the main base, both blood refiners are full and i dont have permission to upgrade em 😛

spare field
#

Noted, I'll go looking for that

pure moth
spare field
#

I'm gonna drag all the random shit I have clogging up my base and stuff it in there, then.

pure moth
#

Worth noting : most of the early game stuff gives only either single scrap of plant fiber

#

So you are maybe better of selling them for the single digit Solari ammount at Grifin's

glossy dust
#

i do like the ropes and pistons that indicate easy climbing paths 🙂

pure moth
#

Grapple goes WEEEEEE

spare field
#

Yeah I'm gonna unlock trees but not sure when I'll invest. I like sword nonsense the most rn.

#

FLYING KNEE

hybrid tartan
#

If you do the lab in the starter zone, above it is where you actually find the planetoligist

spare field
#

Ah, but you need to get the quest first

hybrid tartan
#

maybe, I've collected stuff for quests without having the quest active before

#

that one doesn't include kill quests, anywho

spare field
#

I did find a bunch of random sidequest things, so eventually I'll have those ready.

pure moth
#

you can pre-collect and re collect them

#

they have no weight or space as far as I know

#

or noticed

spare field
#

They end up at the bottom of your inventory, when you scroll down

#

They do take up inventory space, unlike the ID bands

pure moth
#

No

#

they are separate if you look closely

#

they are in your inventory screen

spare field
#

Mmm.

pure moth
#

but not your inventroy

spare field
#

I see.

pure moth
spare field
#

ah, so it's bonus inventory, it just looks like it's taking a slot

pure moth
#

Green you can go to the planetologist after you have cleared the lab fully and got the quest items there ( left one on my screen)

spare field
#

oh so literally just Go Up?

pure moth
#

ye he is there

spare field
#

I have the items, yeah

pure moth
#

Got the class now

spare field
#

I don't need to go to the outpost first?

pure moth
#

the game doesnt seem to care in what order you do things

spare field
#

Sick.

#

I logged out next to the front door there because I had to go to work

#

So that's a time saver

pure moth
#

ALL THE PASSIVE SKILLS

#

thats why I wanted this class

#

Gonna stuff my dude with all the passives

spare field
#

Yuuup

#

Also @tired gate Lookin at it now, the final slot is probably for the 'ultimates' at the end of each tree

pure moth
#

yeah

glossy dust
#

grr little hard to shoot when my turret gets stuck to my hand and wont bugger off 😛

spare field
#

lol yeah. It's not very good as a skill.

pure moth
#

Almost back where I was before old wormy got me and my bike

#

Need to get another permit for Aren's Rifle though

#

that was a good one

hybrid tartan
#

where is that one at?

pure moth
#

Broken Stone Station , gonna go there now

hybrid tartan
#

rad

pure moth
#

Gonna hop off after this so sorry no party

#

also

#

I stepped into the trap

#

again

#

The chest is secured witha proximity fire mine

#

Okay Vehicle rebuild and secured

#

gonna do some cleaning and dinner

gilded verge
#

@pure moth i've got a whole spare mk1 in my base/want me to craft you anything extra?

pure moth
#

Nah

#

I did a run of lab and ship

#

that gets you everything you need

gilded verge
#

if you could, can you bring some granite/copper across?

spare field
#

You can stick a whole storage thing on the bike right

gilded verge
#

yup

#

storage or second seat

spare field
#

Noted. I'll make a storage bike for hauling shit across the sands, since I have a bunch of extra copper and such

pure moth
#

well "storage"

#

is the back slot

spare field
#

Are there no copper/granite sources over there, or is it just "if it works it works"

pure moth
#

that can also hold a booster instead

gilded verge
#

there are green

#

i just always need more

spare field
#

Kay.

#

I'll hauls some.

gilded verge
#

and they spawn more in that first area

spare field
#

Also, I can live without the booster. If need be I'll just sit on the sand and let worm man pass.

gilded verge
#

if you do a run of the lab for the components

#

i can craft you a mk2 bike

#

goes about 10-20kph faster then mk1

spare field
#

I have to craft the basic bike first to progress, I'm on locked research

#

which is a bit of a regret atp

pure moth
#

Did you get all the intel at the camps ?

#

There is like 20 intel sitting around free in the first zone

spare field
#

No

#

I'm on the locked tree based on story

#

I can't freely research

pure moth
#

ahh

spare field
#

which is honestly really nice story wise, but I wish it didn't lock every possible research too

hybrid tartan
#

are you putting in the better blood purifiers?

gilded verge
#

oh shoot

#

we should

#

i don't have the research for it @hybrid tartan

#

if you do, please

hybrid tartan
#

I do have it researched, will see if I have building permissions

gilded verge
#

now you do

hybrid tartan
#

anywhere in particular you want em?

gilded verge
#

and @glossy dust you have build perms again, woops that got toggled off(plz don't abandon meee)

#

nah

#

place em wherever

#

doing some reorg

#

so i'll move em

hybrid tartan
#

Sounds good, they do require a Lot of power tho, so ill just make 2 for now

gilded verge
#

2 should be more then enough

#

thaaank

#

want anything in return?

hybrid tartan
#

I'm good, tis for the base we plan to frequent

#

If we have enough steel I could start making windtraps and stuff

gilded verge
#

barzha (or you) got some

#

i'm not there yet

#

/was going to get a lot more iron and then head over for carbon

hybrid tartan
#

me neither, heh

gilded verge
#

have about 40 minutes left

#

till i gotta bounce

#

so just reorginazing base then just gonna get some iron and basics

hybrid tartan
#

gotcha gotcha

tired gate
#

I’ll do some blood harvesting later today for the new purifiers, along with some iron runs.

#

Gotta get the swanky iron gear.

#

Also you were right weeg. The sword feels so much better.

gilded verge
#

also plant fiber

#

we need plant fiber

tired gate
#

Oh god yeah.

#

I’ll add it to the list.

gilded verge
#

@glossy dust can you place a weapon fabricater?

#

2 chests up stairs

tired gate
#

Oh I did want to say this because I forgot: small chest with a respawn anchor in front of it left side stairs is my backup gear/special items chest. I’d appreciate it if it went untouched. I’d have put a sign down but I don’t know how to do that……

gilded verge
#

you can't

#

sadly

tired gate
#

Damnit.

gilded verge
#

i'll move it to third floor

#

where personal stuff is

tired gate
#

👍 👍 👍

gilded verge
#

on second floor

#

chest with round table - items made to be taken

#

chest with square table - items meant to be scrapped

tired gate
#

They let me draw dicks in the sand, but they don’t let me write on signs…… what has this world come to.

gilded verge
#

SE corner on third floor

#

thats where your chest is now

tired gate
#

Tysm

spare field
#

Swords are fun

#

I can't wait to be able to use one

#

I'm stuck with shank sticks

glossy dust
#

got enough steel to make all the fabricators

#

had to put down a few more generators to power em

gilded verge
#

the sandbikes are like cats

#

always land on feetses

#

@tired gate you reaching lvl 200 is not far off

tired gate
#

Huh????

#

I’m like level 27 or something

gilded verge
#

i'm already lvl 40

tired gate
#

That’s a ways away.

tired gate
gilded verge
#

riugghttt

tired gate
#

The last few levels will take more than all the priors combined.

#

Or at least it should be a curve

hybrid tartan
#

Your gonna accidently hit a sandworm before it dies and gain 91 levels

spare field
#

Aren't you like

#

Not supposed to hunt the sandworm

hybrid tartan
#

Probably, but .mo, so someone's gonna try

gilded verge
#

lore wise since its shit is the only reason we're on this shithole, i think everyone collectively would get pissed and murk the person(in lore)

spare field
#

Especially since they don't survive transferring.

tired gate
# spare field Not supposed to hunt the sandworm

lore wise: any ATTEMPT at a sandworms life is met with extreme prejudice. the sandworms have an EXTREMELY low birth rate, and extordinarily long lifespans. each one that survives to adulthood is decades of prosperity if not more. their spice is also the only reason why the galaxy at large still functions after the AI Jihad.

so essentially. god no. I wouldnt even attempt that. like. look. Im all for "if it bleeds it can die" and "kill your gods" but..... the sandworms are just. living their lives. they have no malice or intent. they just are. they are forces of nature more than creatures of flesh.

#

and like. nature is beutiful. Im not gonna try and stab it.

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

hence my summary

#

this planet is a shithole of shitholes

#

we're only here for the spice

tired gate
#

oh yeah. 110%

#

fun fact: spice explosions are how sandy's are born.

gilded verge
#

you kill a spice worm, everyone's gonna be fucking pissssseeeeeeed

spare field
#

"Holy shit you just reduced our chances of surviving the next 100 years, markedly. You're on EVERYONE'S shit list."

tired gate
#

if you can even succeed. those things are built to survive on Atraxis. you aint harming one without some supreme firepower.

gilded verge
#

crippled interstellar trade

#

as well

spare field
#

yep

tired gate
#

the entire galactic community would put you on a KOS list.

spare field
#

Crippled the chances of new worms being born, crippled trade, etc.

tired gate
#

mhm.

pure moth
#

Also dont forget the crippling addiciton withdrawal you throw the system into

spare field
#

You won't get crippled! That'd be too light a punishment

gilded verge
#

wow

tired gate
#

oh no spice is a brutally addictive substance green.

gilded verge
#

Towerbase is RIGHT next to the Harkonnean base

tired gate
#

how close is "right next to"

gilded verge
#

right

#

600 meters

tired gate
#

oh damn

#

thats like

#

2 sandworm noms away

gilded verge
#

goddamn americans

#

measuring everything with random units instead of metric

#

@hybrid tartan invite gurm to the party

tired gate
#

heeeeeeeeeeeeh

gilded verge
#

having no vehicle fault damage is fun

#

just yeet the crawler

#

oh man

spare field
#

Can't wait until we can fly

gilded verge
#

the devs need to revamp that starting zone

#

Hagga Rift is fucking amazing

#

yeah

tired gate
#

@gilded verge this chest ya?

gilded verge
#

yup

tired gate
#

rad

#

why does it have 32,000 dollars?

gilded verge
#

oh woops

#

tired gate
#

ah.

spare field

Put it in a bank you goof

tired gate
#

well I put my 3 things in there. take your stuff when you get around to it

tired gate
gilded verge
#

i've got another 50k in my chest

#

its in Arrakeen

#

which on that

#

i assume we want to side the guild with Atredies not harrkonnen?

spare field
#

iirc Atreides are pretty okay, and the Harrkonnen are dicks

gilded verge
#

yeah atreides are the "merciful" group

#

the latter are "SLAVES"

#

man

#

i wish i could leave my vehicle on

#

for the lights

gilded verge
#

we nee'd iron

hybrid tartan
#

doin the dnd, so good luck in the meantime

tired gate
#

I presume Harrkonnen are the red glowy evilily dudes?

gilded verge
#

no worries

#

ytes

#

they are the "evilTM" guy

tired gate
#

even though in world it.... sigh ya know what its a video game. not the point.

hybrid tartan
#

and if you don't include the tm, they make you pay for it. If you do, they make you pay for it...

gilded verge
#

uggggggh

#

baseeee

#

gaaah

#

sizeees

#

in other news

#

is it legally allowed

#

to call my vehicle the bitchmobile

#

but like

#

bitchn'mobile

tired gate
#

fair enough

#

in sad news I cannot build a base on top of the giant square rock

#

its a religious site or somethin

#

also: enemies can and will spawn LITERALLY on top of you

gilded verge
#

gurmitheon

#

i've got a dune buggy

tired gate
#

DUNE BUGGGGYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

#

...... so. apparently my fast mobility tech just. shreds suspensor belts

#

cause uhh

#

I made this oen fresh last night.

#

so.... hm.

#

OKAY THEN. WELL THEN. HOW AM I ALIVE.

#

well time for a drug trip

gilded verge
#

which one?

tired gate
#

what will the Muad'Dib teach me today in this drug trip within a drug trip......

gilded verge
#

#2?

tired gate
#

yeah

#

the mouse today teaches me how to use static electricity. interesting.

#

....

||did this game seriously just finger waggle me for looking in a side path?||

gilded verge
#

Don't come to base today

#

it ain't pretty

tired gate
#

...... I see

gilded verge
#

almost done

tired gate
#

well Im trying to gun through trials until 4 so that I can have my third damned ability slot

gilded verge
#

oh gunna need some of this shit

tired gate
#

ah. okay. so. trial 3 is in an annoying place. welp. Ill deal with that later. for now..... heading back to base because all my gear is nearly broken

gilded verge
#

hmm

#

so issue

#

that truck won't fit through those doors

tired gate
#

that is an issue

#

hey weeeeegy, durring your lovely reorganization of the base, killer job btw..... you filled up all the corners....

gilded verge
#

soo?

#

what are corners needed for?

tired gate
#

ya know what. doesnt matter.

spare field
#

prolly too sick to dune tonight but still

gilded verge
#

HOW WAS THAT

tired gate
#

WHY

#

WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT

gilded verge
#

no fall damage!

tired gate
#

sigh

gilded verge
#

for context

#

i yeeted the buggy

#

all the way down the Haga rift

#

about 350 meters

#

HAAAAAAAAAAAAALp

tired gate
# gilded verge HAAAAAAAAAAAAALp

yeah okay so weegy, fun fact, while Im playing the game I cannot see discord. I have a singular monitor, the game takes the whole thing. also. theres an in game chat. that WILL pop up for me in game. if you wish to directly communicate that is a much easier and more visible option.

also I was trying I just got lost.

addendum: theres nothing else in this base.

gilded verge
#

oh that was for commedic effect

#

sorry

tired gate
#

ah

#

this is actually insane. enemies get shields that are stronger than god, and our shields are wet tissue paper

#

its

#

ugh

hybrid tartan
#

(I have 2 computers on, game on 1 and discord/YouTube on the other, heh)

tired gate
#

and the weapon class that specifically states its for use against shields is USELESS

#

it does NOTHING

#

its just a rapid fire sidearm. no special quirks or gimmicks

gilded verge
#

get innnn

tired gate
#

Im complaining. gimme a moment

#

the sunlight isnt real in this cave.

#

alright weeg. gonna hit up the surface and head back to base.

gilded verge
#

oh wait'll drag you up

tired gate
#

.... so

#

you can

#

in fact

#

die from fall damage

gilded verge
#

you can!

#

you cannot die in vehicle though

tired gate
#

FREEDOM

#

AHAHAHA

#

I MADE IT

#

god getting the underside hang climb is so annoying

gilded verge
#

hey i offered a ride

#

also @spare field accept the party invite, just means we know where each other are

spare field
#

I'm about to log off

gilded verge
#

ahh

#

pardon

#

right not feeling well

spare field
#

I just logged on to make my bike and go to sleep

gilded verge
#

feel better

tired gate
gilded verge
#

gurrmmmy

#

i need you again

#

wait

#

maybe

#

built the next parts of the buggy

tired gate
#

okay well I fell into a pit and am.... uhhh.... working onon not being in said pit

spare field
#

Maybe you should get your own bike weegy

gilded verge
#

oh i do

#

this is the buggy

#

with a dedicated mining bit

#

and no out of resources

spare field
#

I have made my bike

#

With a storage box

#

huzzah

#

now I can drive places instead of fuck around. And now I can make a new base that I can actually build up.

gilded verge
#

people have been using the tower as communal if you want, feel free too as well

tired gate
#

Im making my way on my own shortly. at least if things work out how I want them to

#

so. tower will be more yours again soon

spare field
#

I kinda want my own base to work with, at least to make a different stopping point.

tired gate
#

okay so basicaly anywhere actually interesting to put a base is a no building zone.

#

thats

#

stupid

#

why is this god forsaken mountain, the ENTIRE MOUNTAIN, a no building zone.

THERES NOTHING HERE.

#

theres even a god forsaken harvestable rock

#

just about every other no building zone Ive understood. but this one. this one just upsets and confuses me.

#

well. time to head down I guess. what a disapointment.

tired gate
#

well now thats just rude.

#

so. the mountains not only, have massive no build zones (which make zero sense) they ALSO just excede build height anyways, which is, ludicrious. you do not need both. one or the other christ.

#

good news I found a spot

gilded verge
#

aren't you gonna be insta-murked that deep?

tired gate
#

probably!

#

actually no I did survive one stray bullet

#

the point isn't survival

#

its "deranged base spot thats nearly physically impossible to access"

#

no the true difficulty rn is water

gilded verge
#

well if you need resources

#

one trip

#

already 1.5k carbon

gilded verge
#

Buggy is worth its wait in gold

#

I'll set perms so people can take it out

#

Just make sure to return it fully gassed and repaired

tired gate
#

..... oh. wait. ohhhhh this is so dumb.

#

dumb in a good way

#

ehehehe

#

but thats enough dune for one day.

#

the death penalty is basically nonexistant. so. thats ripe for abuse.

#

some gear durability is worth the ability to teleport across the damned map

#

or worst case Ill just take a death penalty to keep my gens running until I can actually survive out there.

#

probably that now that I think about it

#

until Ornithopers The Wall is just not a good location. but. it sure is pretty.

gilded verge
#

If you get me aluminum I can do one

tired gate
gilded verge
#

Bring

tired gate
#

the walls. floors. ceiling. its all made of the stuff

#

yeah later.

#

must

#

paint

#

mini

#

mini painting

#

need

#

not murgle mind you. plastic miniatures.

#

but yes Ill get you some aluminum later.

hybrid tartan
#

I'll be hopping on soon

gilded verge
#

Towerbase needs blood/water

#

otherwise

#

got 300+ iron and 300+ steel

#

and about 1k copper

hybrid tartan
#

would you like me to research and make a wind turbine? dunno if we have the cobalt paste yet

hybrid tartan
#

alright, as long as the enemy is not shielded, Shredder wipes em out

#

Scanner is fun, lets you know where enemies are cuz it sees them as water bags

glossy dust
#

i think we would need a wind turbine first for the power, and did bring back some recource that becomes cobalt paste last ngiht, was going to use it to upgrade the smleters tho

hybrid tartan
#

how much should i worry about radiation?

glossy dust
#

insta death when the bar fills

#

when your in it you get a little square at the bottom of the screen, does reduce fast out of radiation at least

tired gate
glossy dust
#

need to test if it applies to npcs too 😛 somehow trap a couple in there

tired gate
#

I NEED TO STOP DOING THIS

glossy dust
#

yes taunt shai halud, it will be even more likely to come when you have enemies for it eat then :p

glossy dust
#

hijacked one of the empy boxes for water stuff and made a few extra litrejons as well as gathered all the med blood bags along with the decalitre dit found if you go gathering grab from there and put em back when done :p

#

also scrapped the 10 odd small ones 😛

spare field
#

Do we have any better storage options or is it literally just the small boxes

glossy dust
#

those are med and there is a larger one that needs 55 aluminium

spare field
#

Noted.

#

I'm gonna deconstruct and transport my stuff to the shared base in tutorial zone

glossy dust
#

we are just started to get the alu but the first 180 is reserved for dits orno

#

med need iron and thats the one open in my screenshot

spare field
#

Got it. I'll start harvesting. Is there a reason to keep copper ore as ore, or is it just better to compress it into ingots

glossy dust
#

better to refine, no use for raw copper, iron, carbon, alu that iv seen

#

lighter too

#

apart from those early quests that wanted you to hold 200? copper ore :p

spare field
#

serously

#

You can't keep the glow light on your hip with other equipment?

glossy dust
#

nope need the iron tech lamp

#

that goes in an inventory slot and gets turned on with 0

spare field
#

Sigh. Alright

glossy dust
#

cant even salvage the glow sticks 😦

#

hmm if i feed enough of em to a worm do we get glow spice 😛

#

I need to find the tower base and cross the gap. I'll do that after cleaning up my old base.

#

You need Granite, Copper and... Scrap, right? I'll gather what I can while out n'about

glossy dust
#

we got tons of scrap

#

could do with more granite and copper tho

#

sigh, just remembered i need to go back down there to talk to the planetologist for intermediate

gilded verge
#

copper would be nice

#

granite we're good on now

#

(the buggy gets about 2k each per 50minute run)

#

and thats w 1 person

WHYY

#

in my room

spare field
#

I need it for my quest god dammit

gilded verge
#

ahh woops

spare field
#

I can't progress without it

gilded verge
#

i'll move it soon

#

i'll be back in 5-15 minutes

spare field
#

Kay

#

I'll hang out. I'm too tired to keep playing. Sick.

glossy dust
#

ha just ran over the worm going south, it immediately stuck its head up

spare field
#

"The fuck you doin" personified

#

Debating whether I want to pick up a shotgun or not

gilded verge
#

hmm

#

there appears to be an issue

#

i have lost the fief computer

spare field
#

...

glossy dust
#

hehehe

gilded verge
#

found it

#

right in the middle of the factory floor

glossy dust
#

and shotgun is very close range

#

not sure how it does agaist shields soz

spare field
#

Kay

#

Then I probably don't want it, I'm already very close range.

gilded verge
#

what gun you running right now?

spare field
#

the standard rifle you get in copper, I didn't make the Unique

gilded verge
#

kewl

spare field
#

I mostly stab things, especially now that I have a Shield

gilded verge
#

i'll crap you an artisian rank rifle

spare field
#

kay

gilded verge
#

ooh

#

want a sword?

spare field
#

I made one because I'm a cheeky bastard

#

It's sad to lose the bleeder knife but what can you do.

#

I need a new blood extractor tho. I'll craft that later.

#

coughing my lungs out and no longer in the mood for dune

gilded verge
#

alright

#

and don't worry

#

t2 blood extracter is 2k per stab

#

the passive removal sucks, but balances out

spare field
#

Just saved me a hot bar slot

#

Which was nice

spare field
#

Actually do we have the parts for a T2 bike? I got a T2 booster from a bounty I think, so I can make a speedster if I get the parts

gilded verge
#

we do

#

their a bit used

#

but i'll scrap my bike and give you the parts @spare field

#

or if you wait a bit, i can make you a t3 bike

spare field
#

Don't scrap it if you use it. I can always just put together a basic bitch bike for schmoving places, I plan on using my current bike until it falls apart as a hauler.

gilded verge
#

oh nah

#

since i got the buggy

#

i don't use it

#

its just wasting space

spare field
#

Ah, then cut it up. I'll make use of it, I think I like the idea of jet biking in the dunes more

#

Cralwer is probably needed, but I like the bikes.

#

I really do appreciate the vehicle storage tools and such. So nice

glossy dust
#

just tore my t2 apart since i made t3, everything is in one of the gear boxes apart from the inventory

#

geeze nearly broken my t2 sucker, been that much of a vamp

gilded verge
#

fucking swordsman

#

3 of them hitting you

#

impossible to get around

glossy dust
#

yea thats difficult

gilded verge
#

@tired gate if you want a good perch/nest base, check out Jabal Eifrit Al-Januab

#

that area is loaded with towers

#

has anyone got a thopter yet? @glossy dust

spare field
#

Did Dune ever explain why the copters are dragon fly style

gilded verge
#

gravity/atmosphere

#

real issue

spare field
#

Ah

gilded verge
#

at least, scientifically thats why

#

why Herbert did it, i'm actually unsure

#

but it makes sense scientifically and theme wise

#

its a story about big fuck off worms

#

might as well have our primary vehicles be dragonflys/sparrows

#

represent humanity going from a competitor/part of the ecosystem pre leto 2nd and then becoming the dominant in the ecosystem during Leto 2nd

#

appearence wise, their cool as hell

#

not much matches that shape/coolness

glossy dust
#

not yet, got more alu inc but not enough for one

gilded verge
#

scientifically, it was why getting the last rover on mars was such a big deal, it had a helicopter on it that fly and tested/testing the plausability of helicopters on planets other then earth

#

same thing is why NASA and co have spent billions on redeveloping the wheel

#

the rubber wheel works perfectly on earth

#

but won't work anywhere else in the solar system

#

andkewl

#

gonna build one for me by end of day i think(is my goal)

#

feel free to take the buggy @glossy dust it gets stuff FAST

glossy dust
#

okie ty

#

currently exploring the NE i know fremen 6 is up there

#

not that the buggy can get where the alu is, only found it at the top of spires so far, maybe further is on the ground :p

gilded verge
#

forgot to set the perms to allow others to drive last night, just got around it

#

yeah

#

base stuff

#

we're good on

#

got 3k iron ore

#

1k crystals

#

2k carbon

#

1k copper ingots

#

we just need that thumper sand and diamiondine

#

along with alu

#

think i'll try and do third vision later

spare field
#

So basically I don't need to gather jack shit rn

#

I can go and just keep whatever's in my inventory

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

the buggy is insane

#

i can get like 2-3 hundred of each resource per node

spare field
#

Lucky. Good to know though

gilded verge
#

oh you can drive it

#

you guys can take it out

#

just return it with full tank of gas

#

and repaired with the wire

#

until people get their own

#

its the clan loaner

spare field
#

Yeah I don't have much to gather for yet

gilded verge
#

@glossy dust how do you get the caliber compressors?

gilded verge
#

the map deisgn is fun

#

once you got the buggy and you're looking for cover to park

tired gate
gilded verge
#

ahh

tired gate
#

But that place is a death trap even with steel gear.

gilded verge
#

steel is slaver ya?

tired gate
#

Yes.

#

Which we’ve actually got a decent quantity of. Also me and Susbar found some decently close aluminum rocks. Only problem is storage space. But that can be solved with time.

gilded verge
#

yeah gonna break for the afternoon

#

then evening is redoing storage

#

my base, my responsibility

#

also need something tedious

#

gotta get

tired gate
#

Always need more water. That’s fairly tedious.

spare field
#

Oh

#

I need a Vehicle Backup Tool PER vehicle

#

Alright

#

How do you use the booster

tired gate
#

Shift?

spare field
#

Doesn't seem to work...

tired gate
#

Hm. No idea.

spare field
#

Why does this have an empty module- ah

#

I must be able to attach a module type I don't have yet

#

Found it too

#

It's Q

gilded verge
#

The scanner is great though

#

hmm

spare field
#

It says there's an empty module slot on the detailed vbiew

#

That's why

gilded verge
#

left the buggy in an enclosed space but not base

spare field
#

Also shit now I have to actually worry about my bike... Oh well.

gilded verge
#

don't worry about it

#

having the basic tool + wire and keeping it in a base should be enough

#

its a mk2

#

won't be long before you ditch it for a 3

spare field
#

True, but still

#

Also, found a downed thopter, got some salvage off it

gilded verge
#

oh nice

#

keep downing that

#

Holtzman accuators are nicee

spare field
#

oops. Deposited all my ammo.

#

Time to CONSUME the local scavs

gilded verge
#

get dat bloood

spare field
#

No gathering tool, I'm moving to get intel. :U

#

Do we need Armor Plates too?

gilded verge
#

a decent chunk

spare field
#

FUCK

#

I left my water bottle at base again because of the fucking autostack

#

I forgot

glossy dust
#

brought back some more alu up to about 120 refined now

#

sry do i need to put the water supplies box away from the rest?

gilded verge
#

nah

#

don't worry about that

#

the issue is with organization

#

which, i'll do with in a few hours

#

just overhaul that space

glossy dust
#

also brought back a ton of flour, so we are up to about 400 of the refined version, did take a couple of dashes before i realised i had my shield on and was wondering why the worms were so aggro :p

spare field
#

Guess I'm saving up for the next tier of research and skipping iron tier lol

glossy dust
#

heh apparently storage labels are in the works apparently, no time frame tho

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

a lot of QoL stuff has been skipped

#

like i'd love the option to favorite an item(like my literjon) and make sure it does not be counted when depositing

spare field
#

same

glossy dust
#

and mark reciepies like the ammo and med kits

#

anyone compared the basic healkit vs the more advanced ones?

spare field
#

I just deconstructed the old mk1 bike

#

I thought that it was a uh

#

multiple storage system

#

So I could have multiple vehicles per tool

#

do I care enough abut the map to go and

#

find all the Fremen hideaways

#

no I do not

glossy dust
#

hide aways not really, the triple house symbol yes, those give RP

spare field
#

yeah

hybrid tartan
#

On the advanced fief quest, you can just construct and deconstruct one to get it done, or be in a party with someone that Is operating one than "disband" a base. Doesn't kill the base, just relinquished ownership

spare field
#

There is one thing to note

#

Things on your hotbar do not autostack

#

Which can help

#

This game also has TOO MANY TOOLS

glossy dust
#

hehe

hybrid tartan
#

Yep, I very much wish the vehicle holder would let you have storage on a vehicle too, but it's not that convenient

#

I should be on in about 9 hours. Just about starting work atm

gilded verge
#

yeah folding in several tools would be nice

hybrid tartan
#

If you know you are going out with a party though, could be worth specializing, i.e. some for blood, some for compacting, some for mining

spare field
#

Agreed, needs Terraria style tinker table

#

and tbh the vehicle storage should be part of the welder

#

It'd literally be one extra tab on the selector menu for it

#

We're going with Atreides, aye? I'm signing the contract with 'em. Wanted to know.

hybrid tartan
#

Here's hoping they merge some stuff in whatever the next update is

#

I think the consensus is atreides

gilded verge
#

yeah atreides

#

christ

#

you've already killed the slavers green?

spare field
#

Hmm? Oh I'm just picking up their contract and working on contracts around the zone

#

exploring for research so I can catch up tech wise

tired gate
hybrid tartan
#

I keep forgetting to just not have the construction tool on hand

tired gate
#

I keep one in my inventory for if I’m caught out in a sandstorm.

#

Never know when you need a shelter NOW

spare field
#

I also dislike having my combat skills and exploration skills being stuck on the same bars

#

Makes it more annoying to explore

#

... Met a ghost scav. Couldn't kill them.

tired gate
#

I’ve just accepted that the only skills I’m gonna use are super run and grapple.

hybrid tartan
#

I've got grapple and the come hither up.

#

I do plan to get the team armor boost too, just gotta get quests finished

tired gate
#

I like super sprint cause im addicted to momentum abuse.

#

Run off an edge and use low grav to go OBSCENELY far.

#

The fact all my mobility is based on abusing the grav packs is probably why I chew through them so quickly.

hybrid tartan
#

I've never had to replace mine. But I only use it for cliff climbing really

spare field
#

Oh

#

They have SNIPERS

#

Well that's annoying as shit

tired gate
#

Ah. Yeah.

tired gate
#

All my other gear lasts ages

#

But my hover packs?

#

Dead on arrival.

gilded verge
#

want help green?

#

wait different quests nvm

#

@spare field when you're done, mind heading over to me?

#

got a scrap buggy we can use for now

#

won't last, but better then not having one

tired gate
#

Bike go vroom vroom

gilded verge
#

buggy

#

not bike

spare field
#

Whatchya need Weegy?

gilded verge
#

need you to drive something back

spare field
#

Kay

#

OMW

#

My inventory is full as fuck tho, so

#

Where is it at, on you?

#

Man

#

The emperors wings suck at breaking your fall

gilded verge
#

don't worry

#

no need to drive

#

pack*

#

juist drive

#

just drive it back to base please

spare field
#

... It's going to break before it reaches there, but alight. Hopefully I don't lose my stuff.

gilded verge
#

if its gonna break, feel free to leave it

#

ey!!!

#

you did it!

#

thaanks

spare field
#

Managed it. Avoided the worm, weirdly enough, and patched it up as much as my repair skill allows

#

I need a nap. I'mma deposit all my shit.

gilded verge
#

no worries, go nap

#

that means we'll have a second buggy as permanent loaner

spare field
#

It's a shitbox, but it can last a few trips

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

i'll change the chasis to a mk3

#

then scrap components on it

#

so as we use it, people can upgrade it

tired gate
#

I mighta mentioned it before but I do love how this game is canonically Paul blitzed out of his mind on spice.

spare field
#

More specifically this is him blitzed out on spice and seeing an alternate reality

#

I think I'm gonna make a T3 bike and just stick storage one it

#

So much nicer to just have extra loot space with how I explore

#

I wish you got more inventory space.

#

... Ah shit I also need new armor. Weh

gilded verge
#

i can do some

#

give you the new armor and craft t3 stuff

spare field
#

I unlocked the T3 bike, but couldn't find a T3 storage box

#

So long as I'm good to use the base mats I'm gonna go grab a bunch of tech points and explore

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

feel free to use anything

#

as long as it gets replinished in some way or another and percentage its a-okay

spare field
#

Yeah, I'll do that once I catch up in research. Since y'all skipped a tier basically I gotta upgrade more. And also be more choosey with my upgrades, I'll be skipping the buggy stuff for now and just go for mobility

tired gate
#

It also means Paul has seen me fling myself to my death on multiple occasions

gilded verge
#

redoing storage

spare field
#

Is there something we need in particular that I can actually get or am I better served by just doing contracts and exploring the local area

gilded verge
#

exploring and doing what you want

#

i think we're pretty well suited for now

#

aside from water/blood

#

we always need that

hybrid tartan
#

Requires sooooo much steel and paste for the auto water makers

spare field
#

Better to just have a Dew Reaper on hand. I need more medium blood bags once the small ones I have are nearly dead.

gilded verge
#

we have a whole crate

#

spent the past30 minutes sorting and organizing

spare field
#

right

#

I'll snag some then. I'll keep the old ones and use them 'till they break. Waste not, n'all

gilded verge
#

iron is in demand, but thats everyone everywhere

#

but also don't worry about that

#

i can farm a lot with buggy

#

also - storage reformatted

spare field
#

the flying knee has been failing me lately

#

sadly

#

especially when I don't have much killing power

gilded verge
#

i can drop by

#

and help you

#

just acceeept theee parttyyy

spare field
#

No. It's fineeee.

#

I'm trying out Deflect, maybe it'll do better.

#

Okay

#

so deflect is a useless skill

#

You can use it to approach but it doesn't block every shot and also eats stamina during the entire time

#

Stil lbetter to go with the KNEE OF JUSTICE to gapclose properly AND deal damage

gilded verge
#

slight issue

#

found a new station

#

am stuck

#

starting to see where corners where cut

#

which sucks

#

but, easily fixable and has been in done in countless games

spare field
#

Fileld up the blood refineries

#

One full, one half

#

I am a bloodsucker

gilded verge
#

topped the other one off

#

annnd out of water

#

just pumped ~400 iron, 80 copper and 30 Alu

#

okay QoL thing

#

Buggy cutters are 1 mark behind handheld

#

mk3 buggy only has cap of mk2 handheld

spare field
#

how did you already-

#

did you use it for refining

gilded verge
spare field
#

I stole a lot of blood weegy

#

looks like I need to steal more

gilded verge
#

yeah we need a LOT more blood

#

okay setup 2 wind traps

spare field
#

I'll go stab a few outposts next time I'm on and take all the spare blood bags with me

#

Make another Cistern, maybe, to drain the water off?

gilded verge
#

i've got a few sprinkled around

#

47k litres cap

#

will place more

#

but getting those two windtraps + extra pylon for energy drained

#

all steel + solids*

spare field
#

I am not at the tier where I can actually do anything for that sadly

#

I got distracted trying to stab heavy gunners when that's a stupid idea

#

Better to just find cover and shoot them while they miss uou

#

Sword is honestly pretty underwhelming so far, which makes it sad that I'm a swordmaster. Oh well.

spare field
#

I think I gotta agree with Mini so far. Game is a bit overpriced for what it is. The cutscenes and the lore work they did make up for it, but the gameplay itself is... Rouuuugh

gilded verge
#

a good 10 bucks has to IP inflation yeah

#

while i agree its overpriced

#

i'm having a blast with it

#

its fun, but not great

hybrid tartan
#

It feels like everytime you finally feel comfortable with an enemy group, they get a new one in that's more merciless

#

Almost wonder if it'd be worth it for one person in a squad to focus on anti shield weps, dunno how effective that'd be tho

glossy dust
#

the sneaky melee guys can be a painful suprise too

#

just having multiple people so one can focus on one at a time while the others distract would work

gilded verge
#

yeah just doing 2 people with gurm a few days ago was so much better

hybrid tartan
#

Partying with gurm is a usual success tactic.

gilded verge
#

true

#

so i think doing what green said(sorry, bad situation for me this weekend) but having a time where we hop on and do stuff would be very helpful

hybrid tartan
#

Last time I managed to get from just north of anvil Station to pinnacle station with the gurm help

glossy dust
#

would certainly be a change to get chauffered somewhere 😛

gilded verge
#

hey you mine

#

i'll drive you anywhere

#

but yeah

#

next weekend

#

later in the week

#

i'd be down for a scheduled play time to try and make it worth more @spare field @pure moth if you two are up for it(in like a week)

glossy dust
#

sounds fun

gilded verge
#

and you, but you're here so yes

#

is party limit 4?

#

that sounded dismissive sorry, just that you were looking and didn't want to ping

#

but yeah, the four of us, doing a dedicated thing/goal

glossy dust
#

it wasnt, was just affirming my interest 🙂

#

hopefully by then we will all have ornos 🙂

gilded verge
#

hopefully

#

i think i'm a few days out

glossy dust
#

once we get one will be alot quicker getting alu

gilded verge
#

thats what i'm focusing on right now

#

getting enough to get my ornthi

#

@pure moth is there anything i can make for you while i'm ahead?

#

i'll make you a better gun as well green

pure moth
#

I hadnt had the mental state to play the game so I have done nothing and would like to still experience on my own

#

Havent gotten iron yet

gilded verge
#

no, thats understandable

#

and alright

pure moth
#

So you all are MILES ahead

gilded verge
#

at this point... just me

#

two ways to grieve eh

#

one bottle it up

#

one deal with it

glossy dust
#

take your time, ask for company if you need 🙂

gilded verge
#

i will however

#

make you a personal light

#

it just removes the need for a glowstick

#

and binds a light to zero

#

cause that

#

is weird

#

because like

#

its cool

#

but also you'll need that extra hotbar

#

(if thats okay, its just QOL)

#

AHHHHHHHHH

#

ONLY ONE WINDTRAP WAS ON THIS WHOLE TIME

hybrid tartan
#

On controller can hold left or right to get the light to activate once you have it

#

On dpad

hybrid tartan
#

my only thing on sorta scheduled times is I'll most likely miss it due to my work schedule, but i already tend to be on when some others are. so i don't mind

#

is it worth me making another cutteray mk 3 to toss in a box for folks?

glossy dust
#

id think wait for someone to request

hybrid tartan
#

okies

hybrid tartan
#

sniping out a base is satisfying

glossy dust
#

who wants the mk3 emperors wings bp? just found it

glossy dust
#

||should i go in there chat|| part of the fremen quests

glossy dust
#

we now have a coffin in the center of the craft floor, body goes in, 25, 000 units of water come out 1 hour later

#

power grid wont hold more than 1 atm, 200 energy a pop, ill make more once i get more turbines up

spare field
#

Do we need a body bag or are we hauling them from the nearest scav nest

spare field
glossy dust
#

iv put a box beside it and am filling it

#

i now have the option to pick up dead enemies, they weight 75 each tho

#

not sure if you guys be able to grab bodies until you finish the fremen quest

spare field
#

Ah so I cannot stuff my bike with the corpses of my enemies

#

Yet

tired gate
#

Soooon. We will consume their marrow.

gilded verge
#

don't use all the aluminum please ditimiss

#

i spent an hour gathering it for my orni

tired gate
#

Use all the aluminum for an ornithopter. Got it.

hybrid tartan
#

okies, heh. I was gonna ask if you wanted a rad suit built

gilded verge
#

where is the fucking hand camp?

hybrid tartan
#

hand camp?

gilded verge
#

hand of kishmar

#

khidr

#

that has the last components i need

hybrid tartan
#

should be above you some? on the mountain rather than in it? I might be wrong tho

gilded verge
#

yeah found it

#

and nah for radiation

#

since i'm the most active/easiest to be around

#

i'll nab the ornithopther so i can be a ferry

#

want to be useful

hybrid tartan
#

I feel like you are already doin a lot with that sweet base, heh

gilded verge
#

more useful

#

after i do that, i'll take the buggy out and get more crystals

#

since we are out/ran low

hybrid tartan
#

I gotta hit testing station no 76 if that'd interest ya

gilded verge
#

I've got a report to finish sadly

#

so i'm bumrushing these final elements

#

then going to return

#

dump the buggy for anyone to use

#

and log off

hybrid tartan
#

gotcha gotcha

gilded verge
#

then i may actually start reading dune lol

#

but since im doing ornth

#

the trout and tubes are free game, feel free to use for next tiers of stillsuits

gilded verge
#

discovered combat hack

#

run them over with buggy

hybrid tartan
#

nice

hybrid tartan
#

steel purple dagger does 34.9 damage, so double the artisan dirk

#

filters full again

gilded verge
#

danke

#

once i'm back i'll do an allo run

#

if someone can refresh ether crystals that would be great

hybrid tartan
#

are those just in the caves?

tired gate
#

they're around in the zone to the north of us with the big pits of "hope you brought fall damage negation"

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

just take the buggy

#

get to the rift area

#

and drive off the cliff

#

then work your way up, you'll find plenty

#

no fall damage for buggys

tired gate
#

Ill be hopping on for a lil while to try and get some more aluminum.

#

I want ze ornithopter. flappy flappy.

gilded verge
tired gate
#

Ill try to do what I can.

gilded verge
#

thats how much it took me last night

tired gate
#

👍

hybrid tartan
#

I tossed the 100 etherite i found and got it pasting atm

#

gotta get ready for the work thing, good luck folks

tired gate
#

bye! stay safe!

#

Hagga Rift has no aluminum. dont look there for it.

gilded verge
#

Pinnacle station is best

#

just north there on the eastern shield wall

#

easy to access on foot

#

@tired gate

#

thats where i'd go

tired gate
#

gotcha

gilded verge
#

where i went

tired gate
#

doing this gives me way too much anxiety

hybrid tartan
#

Especially when it zooms in if you go from crazy heights

gilded verge
#

FYI

#

the mark 3 cutter

#

doesn't do alu

tired gate
#

yes it does.

I literally just came back with 1600 of the stuff
