i was going to buzz you

tired gate
#

Ill try to hop on later

#

but Ive got day 2 of a KT tournament today

#

so, need to prep then leave

gilded verge
#

are you winning?

tired gate
#

I won a game yesterday!

#

and I had 2 close losses!

#

well

#

"close"

#

look there was an ork on 1 health who actually just REFUSED to die

#

like

#

that man killed a third of my team

#

solo

#

and ate up so many actions trying to put him down

#

was a really funny game

#

but yea. enjoy your sands of dune, be nice to the worm, and I should be back later for more mining

gilded verge
#

did you dump the alu in the processor? @tired gate

tired gate
#

I dumpped it all in the chests next to the truck

gilded verge
#

ah yup its in the system

#

alright kewl

tired gate
#

didnt wanna destroy all our water supplies

gilded verge
#

got it turning for you

#

its fine

tired gate
#

danke

gilded verge
#

it regenerates fairly fast now?

tired gate
#

neato

gilded verge
#

i'd say about 4 litres an hour

#

i'm using some

#

but i'll replace all the Alu i use

#

i'll also see what i can craft for you

#

@spare field i also left a really good sword for you if you want

#

looks like theres 3 melee variants as well

#

swords, knives and rapiers

#

and then also

#

LMGs

#

okay Ornis are weird

#

but really fun

gilded verge
#

got you the hard parts + a scanner @tired gate didn't have time to fully replenish alu but i think theres enough + i'll try later

spare field
#

Ah. I see. Just.

#

Haven't been home long today. Lots of problems. Will look.

gilded verge
#

no worriesd

#

just remebered you were saying combat was stiff, figured a more powerful weapon could help

#

theres also enough of the Tubing + Leather for another pair or two of suits

spare field
#

Also as a note

#

If you don't have a recipe for something you can't repair it

#

Ran afoul of that trying to make more use of the blood bags

gilded verge
#

i'll make some more then

spare field
#

So if you're gonna use something make sure to get it researched before it breaks

gilded verge
#

except uniques

#

you don't need a second copy of the unique blueprint to repair it

spare field
#

I think you may need to unlock it but that's easier than getting the research trees opened up

#

gunna hop on but I feel like absolute ass

#

so I'm going to uhhhh not do any co-op stuff right now. little sleep, frustrating life things and illness makes talking no bueno, sorry

gilded verge
#

don't worry about it

#

also

#

we don't do co-op stuff in parties

#

it just gives you the location of the other player

#

thats why we do it, in case someone dies or wants something we can easily deliver

#

ping me if you want any scouting done with Orni

spare field
#

noted

#

Where'd the sword get placed, weegy

gilded verge
#

bottom chest, left side

#

from entrance

spare field
#

Kay

#

I'll go get some more Plasteel stuff from shipwrecks

#

We're uh

#

out

gilded verge
#

ahh

gilded verge
#

fuck me

#

they get flamethrowers

spare field
#

oops

#

Looks like that's NOT a good place to uh

#

try to get Flour Sand

#

Right on Drumsand

#

Too bad you can't collect it on the move

#

Filled both Blood purifiers

gilded verge
#

okay good news bad news and bad news @tired gate
bad news: i used a lot of the aluminum
good news: i got you 1k more
bad news: my internet is shitting the bed, so i cna't haul it back to base, it'll be at the north station

tired gate
#

I have no idea where that is.

spare field
#

Did a junker run, got us a little more Iron and suchlike.

gilded verge
#

Pinnacle station

spare field
#

Also some more pasfiber or whatever it is

#

I am absolutely taking this slow, so don't feel the need to hold on for me or aught. I am too tired lately

tired gate
spare field
#

Lots of uh, fighting. The new sword helps a lot tbh, even if I can't repair or replace it yet, but that's also because my weapon perks help. I need to find and unlock the other skill trees

tired gate
#

So…. Find outposts.

spare field
#

I see. The eastern rift one didn't seem to have one, since it has the uh. Reps

gilded verge
#

i did find a place called "chapterhouse" so i assume thats where you learn the Bene Gesserit

spare field
#

I think I'll really enjoy the Ornitopter more. The bike is nice but having to leave it out for storing stuff is annoying. On the bright side, stuff is way more accessible than It hought for sand bikes, so I can usually just haul it close by

tired gate
spare field
#

I will go exploring the sands more later, probably do a super light resource run and only take like. Solaris and advanced materials, just to get more map progress.

#

At this point I don't have a reason to go gathering much, y'all did most of it.

tired gate
#

Yay gathering!

gilded verge
#

gonna do a base overhaul

#

need more space

#

and gonna haul your alu back gurm

spare field
#

You want more Granite just to ensure you have enough?

gilded verge
#

yeah gonna get granite on the way back

#

okay everything hauled back

spare field
#

Kay. I will look for a bunch of granite and haul it with the bike.

gilded verge
#

oh we've got enough

spare field
#

oh

gilded verge
#

like 7k

spare field
#

kay

gilded verge
#

okay maybe a bit more

#

5.5k

#

7k would be nice

spare field
#

Welll alright. I'll skip sleeping. Lemme finish my teeth

gilded verge
#

That's not what I meant!

#

Go to sleep

#

Bed time for you

spare field
#

oh man

#

I love watching the sky completely glitch out

#

everything hurts my eyes

gilded verge
#

Go to sleep 💤

spare field
#

they really copy pasted these outposts huh

#

like

#

literally exact same layouts

gilded verge
#

Yeah

#

It's disappointing

#

You can see the cut corners

#

But, funcom has fixed those corners in older games

#

So hopeful?

spare field
#

I got 2.5k granite for you

#

and 300 flour sand by teasing the worm

tired gate
#

Be nice to Wormy

gilded verge
#

Giggity

#

Teasing the worm

spare field
#

look

#

the sand is in the desert man

#

I would walk without rhythm but the game doesn't let me, otherwise I'd eat the heat stroke to NOT waste the worm's energy with hunting prey it can't catch

gilded verge
#

THATS THE PHRASE

#

THANK YOU

spare field
#

what

gilded verge
#

Walk without Rhythm

spare field
#

oh yeah

#

that's

#

the BIG meme one

gilded verge
#

fatboy slim and bootsy collins

spare field
#

It would be cool if the Fremen could teach you to do that to avoid the worm

#

even if it's a niche use, being able to just traverse without issue is nice

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

it would have been nice

spare field
#

I can see why they didn't though, we're not ACTUALLY learning to be Fremen

#

sadly

#

That was Paul's schtick. There's too much ethnic cleansing for us to actually learn proper

gilded verge
#

if i had a nickel everytime i consumed an ethnostate media today i'd have two nickels

spare field
#

Also dammit, no outpost in the western gap. Has anyone visited Sheol to see if that's a stupid place to be or not

gilded verge
#

No, but i'll visit it

#

once im done setting things up, i'll pop over

spare field
#

Oh I was gonna just in case. Sounds like a decent place to explore then, but don't let me stop you if you wanna

gilded verge
#

oooh

#

i thought you meant like base location

#

nah, i've got quests too do

#

i was just gonna pop in and see whats it like for you

spare field
#

I was just gonna go explore and see who's there and what the level of local Fuckery is

#

I also like having the storage box on my bike, way more tool access

#

Even if I think it's still too many tools

gilded verge
#

okay getting used to orni

#

and its amazing

gilded verge
#

good news

#

base is 3x the size

#

bad news

#

thgere is no entrance

gilded verge
#

oooh

#

@pure moth you were complaining about the build system being relative to the player(relating to direction) turns out you can change it in the gameplay menu

gilded verge
#

base expansion done

#

base reorganization - not done

glossy dust
#

how many coffins you want when i get back in?

hybrid tartan
#

are we still playing v rising? /s

glossy dust
#

these ones liquify you and turn you into tasty tasty water

hybrid tartan
#

does it rain at all in v rising?

glossy dust
#

no it hasnt now you bring it up

#

and has anyone tested if they can wrap up bodies for takeaway or move the ones i already brought to the deathstill?

hybrid tartan
#

i just put one from the crate into the still if that's what you mean

glossy dust
#

good, so you can interact with the prepacked ones 🙂

tired gate
#

hey so does anyone know what happened to the chem refiner?

#

and or can build a new one?

glossy dust
#

didnt touch either of em

tired gate
#

hm

glossy dust
#

yea just had a look all the though the base, both refiners were gone and one of the blood refiners, rebuilt them and put em against the expanded walls near where they were

glossy dust
#

took a buggy for a wonder, came back with a full load of alu, comes out to about 500 bars

#

and annoyingly i cant store one in my backup tool, bike n scout orno only :p

spare field
#

Yep, it specifically says that. Unfortunately.

glossy dust
#

yea the only bike n scout orno didnt register for me, just the stores vehicles :p

spare field
#

Tbh, same until I looked at it more closely on considering if I wanted to change to a buggy

#

To be fair, the buggy is more like a mobile base kinda thing and then you'd use the vehicle storage thing to get a bike for mobility. Use it as a portable respawn point and storage bin

spare field
#

Got my research set, but sadly I need more stuff... Time to upgrade to a better Cutteray and maybe get a Buggy now

#

Gonna go explore Sheol.

spare field
#

kaaay

#

Downed vessel in the western gap is full radiation

#

Not exploring that.

#

AH

#

SHEOL HAS NO COVER

#

ho boy

#

trying to run from uh

#

the sandworm and a sandstorm at the same time is exhausting

#

I've made a Sink Chart of Sheol, but I won't be exploring it deeply. 3/4ths of it is radiation.

#

okay

#

the enemies are also super difficult

glossy dust
#

guess thats orno territory

#

and beyond alu gear?

spare field
#

DURALUMINUM GEAR

#

Stole a bunch of crap from there

#

including an armor set, and a unique Buggy storage module

glossy dust
#

oo

spare field
#

... Lol

#

The slavers and kirab that are fighting each other gang up on you

glossy dust
#

they can also still fight each other, walked into a fight of 2 melee guys vs one of the machine gunners, and me and the 2 melee did a synchonised shield stab on the machine gunner 🙂

spare field
#

Still haven't found another skill teacher for basics

#

Probably went the wrong direction

glossy dust
#

mentat is at the harkonen base to the SE, benegeserite at the atradies base south of the 3rd trader outpost, soldier 1st outpost

#

tempted to look up the rest since you need to find them for the basics before you can talk to the ones in the cities 😛

spare field
#

Ah

#

btw

#

Coriolis storm in 6 hours

#

... And wow I need to go explore more. Bleh

glossy dust
#

corolis only hits the deep desert i think?

#

oh and coins stack to 50k 😛

spare field
#

noted

glossy dust
#

if you zoom the map right in it does stick labels on the npcs

#

yup just checked, corolis is the weekly deep desert wipe

spare field
#

Noted. I also haven't found those locations, so I can't see them yet

#

There's also no SE base I can find?

glossy dust
#

SE of the main base, in the bottom edge of the zone east of us

#

when you find it it shows a big red harkonen symbol on it

#

ill screenshot in a tick

#

ahh swordmaster is at pinnacle station, the 3rd trade outpost

spare field
#

yep

#

Just found them

#

I'm heading back with my maps

#

I got a map of the barrier mountain

#

So that should help Weegy save time

glossy dust
#

heh

#

advanced trainers are arrakeen trooper, mentat harko village bene gesserit, swordmaster

#

theres riftwatch for your mentat pleasure :p

spare field
#

aha

#

There we go

#

Also, found the uh

#

problem. The buggy boot I got? Needs rualuminum

#

But it looks like it's got good stats

#

30 item slots, 2750 maximum space?

#

dunno if that helps a @gilded verge

gilded verge
#

Later for.sure

#

But I've been ran out of space in the 1750 trunk so far

spare field
#

We're technically at it

#

You gys are at least

#

But we need more spice infused Duraluminum and I have tried to get more but it's uh

#

Dangerous

#

Take the maps if you need 'em

#

I'm offline for now. Work calls.

gilded verge
#

a'right

glossy dust
#

are the maps single use?

#

heh the trading outpost doors close during a sandstomr

spare field
#

No idea tbh

#

I just made a big map selection so people can have them. If I have blank maps, I can make more.

glossy dust
#

ill try one later then

spare field
#

Also duly noted, leaving a bike out in the sand REALLY wrecks it

#

it dropped the durability by 50% when I was escaping the sandworm and looking for cover

gilded verge
#

umm

#

what is a coriolis storm

#

is that code for server maintenance

spare field
#

Deep Desert procgen reset

gilded verge
#

aaaaaaaaaaaah

spare field
#

There's a zone we haven't reached yet called the Deep Desert where things get reset weekly, and it randomly regenerates as well

gilded verge
#

thanks

#

right yeah monday

spare field
#

It's also the main use of Sink Charts from what I googled, since you need to rechart every time.

gilded verge
#

yeah whole bottom half is now PvE

#

so we can do it!

spare field
#

Also sink charts are indeed one time use

#

So I'll need to make more copies.

gilded verge
#

their cheap though

#

1.5k a copy

spare field
#

Yes. It also explains why they have a timer

#

Anything deep desert that's over a week old is tossable.

#

Also we're not restricted from entering PvP zones

#

Unless Deep Desert is different.

gilded verge
#

we're not

#

but i'm not interested in PvP

spare field
#

... Is Deep Desert cross server?

gilded verge
#

cross sietch

#

but not cross server

#

one server holds 100 sietchs(the Basin)

#

so we're grouped with a bunch of private servers

#

which means either dramatically less

#

or dramatically more

#

tryhards

spare field
#

ah

gilded verge
#

judging from the current landsraad

#

its either real tryhards

#

or hackers

#

since House Harkonnean has already taken 6 tiles

#

oh wait for this week

#

nvm

spare field
#

Yeah

#

Reset hasn't happened yet

gilded verge
#

we may want to go harkonnean then

#

since theres only 1 guild there

#

versus 5 in Atredies

spare field
#

... Bit late to make that change

gilded verge
#

personal allignment can be different

spare field
#

Ah. So you were talking alignment as a Guild rather than as an individual.

gilded verge
#

oh wait nope yeah

#

gotta be one

#

so yeah

spare field
#

Tooold you.

gilded verge
#

atreides is good

#

you're right

#

i'd rather not be slavers anyway

#

ignore everything, we are atriedes!

spare field
#

Why would it even be bad to have more on our side? also

#

yeah the Harks have a bit of bad PR imagery for people to side with them. I know they didn't have much of a choice to include that battle, but still

gilded verge
#

the way rewards work iirc

#

where if our side claims a tile, we get the end benefit

#

but we have to contribute the most to get the individual rewards

#

less competition to get the individual rewards like new colour palettes rather then just the tile end buff

#

but thats just what i known + funcom could change it + i could be wrong

spare field
#

If we were gonna consider that, we'd have to have looked sooner. 😛

#

I didn't particularly want to join up with Slavers anyhow, even if they pay better

#

Technically i'm still unsigned, but if most of us have signed as Atreides then we have to pick them

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

and i'm fine with that

#

early days for the MMO

#

balance changes are sure to come

#

especially with how they've already listened to DD complaints

spare field
#

I also expect them to do something to make Harkonen more attractive to people, since as it stands it's kinda not really worth it.

pure moth
gilded verge
#

yup

pure moth
#

but they listened right away

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

its encourging for the future

spare field
#

Indeed. They're trying, which is a hell of a lot more than you can say for many.

gilded verge
#

okay base is functionally setup again

#

its just missing light

#

but lighting bases in this game sucks ass

#

changes,
3x the workshop area, enough for the large refineries and stuff we want later
2x the ground vehicle bay, enough for everyone to store a buggy
2x the Orni landing pads

spare field
#

I bought a bunch of furniture sets, I can try making more lights?

#

Unless you also did that

gilded verge
#

i did not

#

i've got my report to finish so i just finished the project of rebuilding to make it functional

spare field
#

When I log in I'll place a selection of lights I got from my furniture set urchases

glossy dust
#

heh got one of the buggies stuck trying to avoid a sandstorm, now to take it apart :p

#

also have to log out and back in to get out of the thing :p

tired gate
#

We really need a “unstuck vehicle” tool.

gilded verge
#

nooo

#

the bitch'nmobile

spare field
#

I mean, it survived

#

You can just detach the parts and reassemble it

gilded verge
#

i've made a minigun if anyone wants it

glossy dust
#

i found one, its in the far right box, god are they inaccurate

spare field
#

That's what heavy armor is for, lol

#

Sit and TANK

gilded verge
#

i also threw in my old explosive rifle

spare field
#

Sadly I am a melee lad, I basically just carry the rifle for thinning the herd before I rush in and stab things

#

I made a high tier Rapier, so I get to try that now

gilded verge
#

i think i have a spare poison rapier blueprint if you want one

spare field
#

Ooh that is what I was gonna work up to, if I like the rapier

#

It seems to trade all AoE for damage, but I have the SPINCIRCLE for AoE

tired gate
#

finally. a new ornothoper is born. my very own 0/2.

#

glory to 0 mana.

#

DUNE. INDIVIDUAL WINGS?! THE BLUEPRIINT CLEARLY SHOWS A PAIR OF WINGS

#

WHAT YOU MEAN I NEED FOUR WINGS

#

sigh whatever. fine. four wings. sure.

#

but thats a pair of wings. and it wants 4 of them.

#

ornothopters (scouts anyways) only have 4 wings. my realism is shattered.

spare field
#

Fly Gurm!

gilded verge
#

its fuun

#

i like my Orni

spare field
#

I need to make a buggy for loot whoring. I also need to upgrade my bike properly and swap the storage...

gilded verge
#

i need to make a new buggy as well

#

when barzha deconed mine, it re-registered as his

spare field
#

If we upgrade to Duraluminum, I can go get another one of the unique Storage modules

#

I CAN fight over there, it just requires me to be a cheeseball

gilded verge
#

no duraluminum yet

#

tonight for me is doing quests + more base

spare field
#

also

#

How do I put down lights

#

Where are my building sets I bought dammiut

gilded verge
#

under second tab

#

we need agave seeds

#

for the ceiling lights

spare field
#

Under Utilities??

#

Do I use the constructon tool?

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

construction tool

#

hold R

spare field
#

ah

gilded verge
#

or press

#

yeah

#

second tab there

spare field
#

So I have a few

#

There's a bunch of floor lights and things

#

as well as floating lamps

#

There is a light limit of 48

#

Okay, all of the lights I could make are on floor 2. We have a limit of 48 lights, so we don't exactly have free reign unless we make other walls or something to let daylight in.

#

anyways. No energy for Dune tonight, so I'll work on it tomorrow and clean and fix.,

gilded verge
#

no worries

#

i'll be on soon so i can do it

#

go relax

#

@tired gate theres a minigun in base if you want to take it

tired gate
#

oh

#

hoooh

#

oho...

#

can

#

can I be trusted with such power?

gilded verge
#

its the same gun the heavies use

tired gate
#

Ill think on it

#

Im personally considering shotgun sniper as my final loadout but, Ill give the minigun a spin to see how it goes

gilded verge
#

i also left "the tapper"

#

rifle with explosive darts

tired gate
#

thats

#

interesting

gilded verge
#

i don't need it

tired gate
#

also just wanna say, orno controls like a dream

#

like

gilded verge
#

i got a better one

#

its so fun

#

its a bit of a learning curve

tired gate
#

its just. vulture mode is, hooooh.

gilded verge
#

learning when to glide when to vulture

tired gate
spare field
#

I need to go find the other skill trainers and just unlock everything...

gilded verge
#

Same

#

I have like 40 skill points

spare field
#

Oh

#

Did you use the maps btw

#

I need to know so I can make more.

gilded verge
#

I haven't played much today

#

I'll give it a shot when I log in

spare field
#

right, sorry

tired gate
#

anyone know whats up with the hand of khdir intel points?

spare field
#

Haven't exlored that yet, sorry.

tired gate
#

Ive got 4/6 but Ive found literally everything in the region

tired gate
#

well I found ONE that I was missing

#

but then theres still the other

#

and Ive finally figured out how to use shields

#

they're

#

really good

#

I didn't realize if you shot your shield turned off

#

so yeah now Im 5/6 on HoK

#

and the internet says its maybe glitched?

#

also new bene tech. the super sprint you can jump durring, no more need to find ledges to get insane forward momentum.

spare field
#

Ah, that'd do it

#

Yeah shields are great! Mine is the only reason I can be melee

gilded verge
#

i need to run to the bene gess

#

trail 3, bene, then lights

spare field
#

You can also take advantage of the enemies shields dropping when they shoot for the heavy dudes

#

When they shoot their shield drops, so you can shoot them back

tired gate
#

okay so fun fact green: THEY USED TO NOT

#

back when me and weegy first ran into em in the lab they just, had their shields, forever.

#

melee suicide charge was like the one option

spare field
#

Must've been a recent patch then

tired gate
#

very.

spare field
#

Also, shame that you didn't have me

#

I would've just kicked their ass

tired gate
#

THE KNEEEEEEEEEEEEE

#

yeah. oh well. glad its fixed now tho.

spare field
#

I could KNEE them but I've been using the whirlwind

#

Also... When did you do this? Because I've been using that trick against the shielded ones since uh

#

four days ago?

tired gate
#

......

#

was my game just the one that was bugged?

spare field
#

I think you just straight up didn't notice

tired gate
#

@gilded verge you remember the deranged minigunners who had the eternal shields that never dropped right?

spare field
#

It's very subtle since the blue shield effect is difficult to see

tired gate
spare field
#

Yeah you need to wait a moment for it to drop, they get like two shots free because Game Mechanics

tired gate
#

no I mean. look. green. you gotta believe me. I swear to god.

#

I know what a shielded vs unshielded hit marker looks like

#

gunners werent doing this for me yesterday.

spare field
#

Then you aren't looking at it correctly

#

Because I was doing it over the weekend

tired gate
#

and I believe you

gilded verge
#

oh this was friday

#

i think

#

but yeah, these guy's shields were not going down

spare field
#

Might've been a patch I didn't notice perhaps.

#

Also

#

If y'all are free tomorrow morning I wanna bring you to Sheol

tired gate
#

Sheol?

spare field
#

To show you how much of a shithole that is and how annoying the enemies are lol

#

One of the areas I explored this morning which got me a Unique buggy storage

tired gate
#

oh the radiation hellscape

spare field
#

which is 80% irradi- yeah

tired gate
#

Ive been EXPLICITY avoiding it due to that

hybrid tartan
#

Gotta have rad suits I take it?

tired gate
#

yeaaaaap

#

otherwise insta death

gilded verge
#

is that where the chapterhouse is?

tired gate
#

benegeserets are.... lemme..... lemme get my map

#

you learn there.

#

spoilered in case anyone wants to figure it out on their own.

spare field
#

yep I need to go back there since apparently I walked past it and missed it

#

I weep

tired gate
#

brutal

#

also is it just me or do the dungeons post area 1 just feel.... lesser?

like. okay yes, they're templated dungeons, I get that, I see that.

but area 1s lab had like, a whole story going on? and a shortcut back to the entrance? and extra loot rooms?

and this one Im doing in a midgame zone has.... none of that?

spare field
#

Yeah it falls off pretty hard

tired gate
#

maybe some updates and ittle get better but its just a little sad.

gilded verge
#

i've found them to be pretty decent

#

especially in the hagga rift

tired gate
#

okay so Ive just been super unlucky

#

gotcha

gilded verge
#

the gap were bad

#

but the ones in the rift were quite fun

tired gate
#

fair nuff

#

rift is also a really cool place

#

wanna try to have a base down there but I wonder if its a giant no build zone

#

2 entire whole mountains have been so far for little to no reason, so, I dont have my hopes up.

#

well okay one was a story location

#

the second.... has a blueprint at its top I guess?

#

like thats mildly important I guess.

#

but the whole mountain is overkill

spare field
#

I need to go explore more because apparently I missed the planetologist special quest and I'm angy

#

I gotta re explore

tired gate
#

I can tell you where if you want

spare field
#

I'll do it after but Planetologist and Swordmaster are gonna be the first classes I max out

#

because Planetologist just has too many useful trees, especially for long term maintenance on the biggest investments: Vehicles.

tired gate
#

Im currenly building a drunken all rounder build. you can max out 25 nodes by level 200. I intend to use em.

#

but yeah planetologist is too useful to not have

spare field
#

I'll unlock the other classes first

#

So I can get the basics down and test out actives

tired gate
#

I still need to find where drug lady is

#

cause

#

I want those gun passives

spare field
#

Mentat, you mean?

tired gate
#

yeah

#

drug lady

spare field
#

both are near our base.

#

err

#

all but Trooper are near our base

#

if you really want to know, scroll up, Barzha was kind enough to share

tired gate
#

oh you have got to be kidding me

#

IVE BEEN IN THERE

#

I LOOKED AROUND.

#

god damnit

gilded verge
#

where did barzha post em?

tired gate
#

also just found a really good science base. given theres 2 in this zone I guess one is just loot fodder while this one had care put into it.

gilded verge
#

oh man

#

the stammershot rifle

#

is amazing

tired gate
#

whats it do?

#

or is it just a really good rifle?

gilded verge
#

just a really good 3 shot rifle

#

how much solari do people have?

spare field
#

I have like 20k at most why

gilded verge
#

curious to how much people have

tired gate
#

uhhhhhh 59k

#

only 14k in liquid though

gilded verge
#

okay neat

#

124k

spare field
#

Makes sense, you've been active more. I also bought a bunch of stuff

tired gate
#

oh okay this is creepy. people here were trying to grow torture vines. horrifying. also drugs. but mainly torture vine plants

#

the descriptions sound similar to the pain incured by one who interacts with the gympy gympy plant

#

aka: horrific unbearable agony of untold preportions.

gilded verge
#

oh those ones yeah

#

that cause pain for decades

tired gate
#

and injuries from them never quite fully heal yes

#

those ones

#

oh also vines that strangle you when you come into contact with them

#

but thats just normal fantasy/scifi fare

gilded verge
#

we are aligned with house atriedes now

#

so don't join Harks

tired gate
#

join greenies. not reddies. got it.

#

in other news the "shock-sword" and the "psudo pulse-sword" have the exact same descriptive text

#

so uhhh

#

thats. boring.

#

Ive finally realized what vulture mode reminded me of

#

all female squadron of silent night bombers. had to do glides in because engines would have been too loud.

#

oh I love when quests send me to an iradiated PvP zone

gilded verge
#

i'm dead tired so i'm breaking for today

#

but got the atriedes stuff

#

tomorrow is moaaar

tired gate
#

okay found a funny audio log of a ship captain losing her god damned mind over the sand on this planet and

#

honestly?

#

fair.

#

this entire planet is hostile to existence except for like 4 things.

spice. sand worms. Muad'dib (sand rat). and one kind of flower.

tired gate
#

huh I just found an upgrade to the Drinker knife. Gluttons Drinker.

#

interesting

#

I wonder if shock sword is an upgrade to psudo then.... I'd guess so?

#

yeah shock is steel, psudo pulse was iron

#

Im starting to realize that 25 skills maxed out isn't enough and Im going to have to make some very hard choices.

hybrid tartan
#

Glutton has been so good

tired gate
#

so thats what a spice explosion looks like

#

very pretty

#

so my base is in an even DUMBER spot than I thought it was

#

its PAST the ornothopter height limit

#

so

#

Im probably gonna scrap it

#

because

#

my god

#

even I have limits

#

so yeah if anyone wants it, freshly abandoned base right there (its literally some walls, a door, a generator, and 3 chests)

#

but for now, it lives as a testiment to hostile game design.

if you let me put a base there, let me fly there.

and also my hubris. cant forget my hubris.

glossy dust
#

iv got about 120k in my bank too and sorry bout the buggy, want me to deconstuct it or play with the permissions so you can or have you made a replacement already?

hybrid tartan
#

I made some more mid water tanks cuz we had maxed out at 130k ml of water

#

currently on moneys im around 102k

glossy dust
#

can make an even bigger one once we get dura

tired gate
#

well I found spiced dura

#

but no normal dura

glossy dust
#

dur is like steel i think, we need jad something to refine alu with

#

which area?

glossy dust
#

someone was after the 6 intel locations for the hand of khindar? they show here, 2 are under quest markers tho, didnt get anything for doing them, ill try climbing the spire

glossy dust
#

climbed the hand of khadir, box at top, no carbide or the other stuff listed, just the usual stuff from the area, also messed with the buggy permissions so you can reclaim it

spare field
#

Alright, back in it. Time to DUNE

spare field
#

oh I am losing my mind

#

I can't scroll down in the journeys tab

#

so I can't select the mission I want to track

#

AH

#

you have to scroll in the main journeys menu before swapping tabs

#

Or else you cannot scroll

glossy dust
#

havent had that issue

spare field
#

I've had it constantly, but at least I have a fix.

glossy dust
#

geh i stand corrected, the orno pilot in harakeen wouldnt take me without cash in hand

spare field
#

weird

#

I was able to transport myself after banking my coin

glossy dust
#

yea it was, emptied my solari into the bank, the transport showed no solari, went and got the flght fee, now she could see both my pockets and the bank

spare field
#

That was a lucreative run... I need to go turn in a bunch of shit but... Workkk

#

God dammit. My computer graphics card died. I hate AAA games, they always have shitty optimizations.

hybrid tartan
#

Should I assume the card is old enough to not be under warranty?

spare field
#

Sorry, not the card. The drivers. Screens blacked out and wouldn't reboot until I force powered off the computer

#

Card should be fine, I did a restart and shut down properly to try and settle it

glossy dust
#

just brought back a load of alu and other things for ornos, also making one for myself :p

spare field
#

I brought back 200 of the actuators

#

So you should have enough of those, I think

#

I think I might just get a basic Orni and use it for some flying. I want a buggy now and to stick on the sands.

#

But I want the current tier, so I can properly find Duraluminum... And also be a massive loot whore.

glossy dust
#

ah handy, just need to fly to the edge of the map to go to the main cities

spare field
#

Yes, and you can fly out as well

pure moth
#

I hope I can get back on tonight, would be streaming that journey and would stay solo unless I really need something that I messed up

spare field
#

So you don't need to spend Solari on transport unless you want quick travel to somewhere else

pure moth
#

I am still at copper stage and have only a bike to my name

spare field
#

Just let us know, Cry. If need be I can give you a hand me down bike, since I'm upgrading soon.

pure moth
#

I have my Mk 1

#

I just need to make it out the Basin

#

alive

#

not worm food

spare field
#

That's easy. 😛

pure moth
#

ehh

#

Last time I tried I got nom nom'ed

#

and lost my bike and everything

spare field
#

My mark 3 has a scanner and a good storage module... And ohhh. That does suck.

glossy dust
#

pick the north most rock outcrop in the basin and go straight north, then veery towards the closest looking rocks :p

spare field
#

Again, just let us know. I can also source some maps for you to save you grief if you want but I don't want to shove it down your throat. :U

pure moth
#

Yeah thats why I also was hesitant to continue
Also family stuff happened and depression

spare field
#

Ofc ofc.

pure moth
#

Drowned myself in dopamine rush from playing PoE semi successful

spare field
#

We're here for yah, bud.

#

I also have to go back that way anyways, so if you want a ride I can grab you too. 😛

glossy dust
#

see if he can stand on a thopter?

#

woo harvested some spice, heard an explosion, look over SPICE 🙂

pure moth
#

I am playing IRL Dunes

Way too hot

remember water conservation :p

pure moth

Cant touch the steering wheel

spare field
#

That's why you keep gloves in the glove box, for when you don't want scorch marks on your hands

gilded verge
#

@glossy dust did you side with harkonneans?

#

cause the game kicked you from the guild

#

ah yeah

spare field
#

whoops\

gilded verge
#

yeah

#

"player and guild are aligned with opposing factions"

#

thats frustrating

#

you'd think after WoW MMO's would learn not to content gate

hybrid tartan
#

that and give proper warninga

spare field
#

I mean, I completely understand the logic, but it is frustrating that guilds have to be separate baed on faction

#

Though with content gating, the entire endgame board is content gating.

pure moth
#

I mean guild just makes easier to give access across the board

#

just need to add them separately to perms

#

but sucks

glossy dust
#

its only temporary, gonnaa rush the rep quests then betray em once i get all the rep stuff

spare field
#

... snrk

#

You can do that?

glossy dust
#

yup you get one chance to change

#

my orny did not like landing when the ground wasnt fully loaded in 😛

spare field
#

What are the faction rewards?

tired gate
gilded verge
spare field
#

mmm

tired gate
#

And landsraad are meant to be part of communal endgame which we won’t exactly partake in traditionally because private server.

spare field
#

No we can

#

It's based on Basins, which are like. The overall server groupings

gilded verge
#

100 basins = 1 landsraad group

spare field
#

So we have a bunch of other private servers we can compete with

tired gate
#

Oh. Huh. Nevermind then. My bad.

spare field
#

We can even go into the Deep Desert when we're prepared enough

tired gate
#

And stay in the PvE half unless I want to rage game.

spare field
#

yep

#

tho we only have three months before Cry has to pony up

tired gate
#

Fair enough

pure moth
#

Ehh its 30 bucks for 3 months

thats nothing for fun with friends

Price of doing space

She also calls you kitten

And gently mocks you

spare field
#

duly noted

tired gate
#

wellthen

spare field
#

I shall craft the buggy tomorrow. What do we need resource wise? Aluminum and the Jasper crystals I know, since we need those for duraluminum

gilded verge
#

basic fiber

#

and hydralauic pistons

gilded verge
#

and a lot of allo

tired gate
#

I have got to stop staying out so long my gun nearly breaks

#

like. this is too damaged to be safe to be using.

#

it doesnt help that my continous death running led to a lot of widespread durability damage

#

anywho Ive brought back goodies for all

#

and Ill be going on another aluminum run soon

gilded verge
#

its better

tired gate
#

but it uses heavy darts.

#

and its semi auto

gilded verge
#

its also explosive

tired gate
#

I mean if you're gonna twist my arm like that I can't say no can I?

#

but yeah Im off on an aluminium run, hope to bring back some goodies.

gilded verge
#

do you have a buggy

#

...

#

@tired gate we have a docking bay upstairs

#

you don't have to land outside

tired gate
#

I literally just placed it

#

like

#

I had run outside

gilded verge
#

ahh

tired gate
#

placed it

#

and took off

#

and then you spawned in

gilded verge
#

fair enough

tired gate
#

and no I do not have a buggy yet.

gilded verge
#

kewl

tired gate
#

but Ive got a 0/2 flyer.

#

so

gilded verge
#

i'll make a big one

tired gate
#

aight

gilded verge
#

0/2?

tired gate
#

Ornithopter is like the face of "weird MTG creature that if only you can make good would destroy all of reality"

gilded verge
#

ahh

tired gate
#

so Ive been making jokes about it.

#

because my brain is 90% references by volume

#

........... so I found a cult that hangs out inside of the corpse of a sandworm......

#

they hurt a lot. Im gonna leave them alone......

gilded verge
#

oh yeah

#

they are not fun

tired gate
#

...... how did I park there.....

#

heads up, if you see a ship crash out of the sky and land in the open sands: loads of great loot there. just. be aware. worm friend also heard said ship and is VERY displeased about it.

gilded verge
#

lots of spice though

#

which i used the bunch i found

#

to create the spice refinery

#

its disappointing but meant to be sold in bulk

#

ran overnight passive income style

#

3 minutes to distill one unit of spice melange

#

1 unit sells for 650

tired gate
#

neat. brought back what spice I could. some 168 odd.

#

and started producing the aluminum and blood I brought back too

#

so

#

yea.

I returned to base and dumped materials, then trying some other stuff/prepping for dnd later this week

“Ground vehicles now have a failsafe system against being stuck in flipped state.”

I have learned that the steamapp will show me download progress for my pc. That's a fun bit

gilded verge

they recently did a big update

gilded verge

annd my wifi dies today as well

gilded verge
#

Good news

#

we have duraluminum

#

bad news

#

we have no aluminum or cobalt paste

tired gate
#

….. I JUST…. God damnit

#

I’ll get a truckload later today of each.

spare field
#

Pfft. That's how it goes.

#

Do we have Duraluminum left, for my buggy nonsense?

#

Or did it get used

tired gate
#

Weegy said we had Dura

#

Just not any components

#

So

#

I presume dura buggy is on the table

gilded verge
#

MK5 buggy is already half-made

#

i had enough for the chasis+engine

#

but ran out of alu

tired gate
#

Please tell me that includes M5 storage?

gilded verge
#

for the rear hull and mk5 cutter

#

it does not

tired gate
#

God damnit

#

Just gimme drive perms to a buggy and I’ll do some mining

spare field
#

I was gonna make the extra strong Unique buggy storage weegy

gilded verge

its half-finished

#

I did mean any buggy with a mining laser

#

I know we have one.

#

Or at least we did

gilded verge
#

oh thats barzha's

tired gate
#

Oh.

spare field
#

Make another?

gilded verge
#

not enough cobalt paste, gotta do a pits run

tired gate
#

…….. I’ll figure something out.

spare field
#

Pits run? For what item in specific. I want a buggy to keep for a while, so

#

I need to know so I can gather it

#

Even if it's not Mk5

gilded verge
#

the crystals

#

to grind up into cobalt paste

tired gate
spare field
#

Never been and never seen

tired gate
#

Alright so north of us there’s a giant long hole in the ground

gilded verge
#

i'll do some moe mining tonight

spare field
#

Okay

tired gate
#

In the hole there’s red crystals. MK3 or up to mine.

#

Good luck getting out.

spare field
#

I'll take a look.

#

I'm almost done with wargaming.

#

Soon.

hybrid tartan
#

Can also find ethrite crystals in the red caves, but it's to a lesser degree and further away than a rift run

spare field
#

So it's in the area north of our main base and basically underground>?

hybrid tartan
#

And north east

spare field
#

Kay.

#

I'll do some jobs and look for loot there. Then I'm making my advanced bike and decent buggy

spare field
#

into thre desert

#

In VC if you want Weeg

gilded verge
#

not today, still not feeling up or it + dealing with other issues

spare field
#

Ofc.

spare field
#

oops

#

Went the wrong way up the Hand of Khidr

#

Missed out on all the loot so I'll have to get it on the way down

gilded verge
#

Second buggy is up and everyone can drive it

#

mk4 cutter so it can get allo

spare field
#

Mmm.

#

I still haven't found aluminum, so I'll have to keep exploring

gilded verge
#

i've got a decent chunk from flight

#

60 ingots

#

gotta use a bit for upgraded storage on my orni to get more in one trip

spare field
#

No like I have no idea what it looks like, I've never encountered it.

gilded verge
#

ohhh

#

its like granite with its chunks

#

but smooth instead of craggly

hybrid tartan
#

I've found some aluminum on top of pillars?

gilded verge
#

a dark brown - grey hints

#

yup

#

thats what i've been flyign through

spare field
#

Kay. I don't know which zone to go to for it, I was gonna go spelunking.

#

No idea how I'd get Aluminum through the bugget then

gilded verge
#

don't worry about it

#

i'll grab the eluminum

#

we still need a fuckton of ethyer

spare field
#

I got like 40 crystrals of it from this climb

#

Is that in the big ass canyon in the Harkonnen territory?

gilded verge
#

yup

#

just drive off

#

and work your way up

#

with the buggy*

#

no vehicle fall damage

#

its the fastest

spare field
#

Can you get the buggy out?

gilded verge
#

yup

#

just drive it up eventually you'll find a way

#

if not, i can come and move it

hybrid tartan
#

Basically going on the perimeter, there will be areas that angle up.

I'd bring some fuel

spare field
#

Kay.

#

I'll try it when I get back, I have uh

#

so much shit to do

#

Gotta get down from the mountain and then stab a bastard in the dick

spare field
#

So many things I need to do. This game is overloaded...

#

How do we get Insulated Fabric? Craft or loot

hybrid tartan
#

I think found? Still not sure where to get the leather either

gilded verge
#

The leather is found northwest of the shield wall

hybrid tartan
#

Shield wall is dangerous enough, heh

spare field
#

I need to craft so much crap...

#

Yeah we don't have enough aluminum and such to make a personal buggy sadly

#

You said we had one in base I could snag for a raod trip?

gilded verge
#

Yeah feel free

#

Take it wherever you want

#

Just return it with a full tank

spare field
#

I see it.

#

I can just... Take this to Harkonnen territory and just dive into the pit and mine whatever I find, aye

gilded verge
#

Yup

spare field
#

kaaay

#

Sorry

#

Just don't want to wreck the damn thing

hybrid tartan
#

Also, if you take a ride by climbing on top of someone's ornitthopter, make sure you have a suspension belt equipped for if/when lag makes you fall off. Being between all the wings seems to be the most stable spot, but helped me get to a few funky places this morning/last night

spare field
#

Mhm

#

I need to go and get the planetologist skill set actually

#

for better loot

gilded verge
#

Oh those things are impossible to break

#

The buggys

#

And the only good parts are the engine, chassis and cutterray

#

Shit on the treads and hull for all I care

spare field
#

Yes, but still. 😛

#

I will loot when I get extra for loot

#

time to go explore harkonen town

hybrid tartan
#

Blue diamond lights tend to indicate useful folks to talk to

spare field
#

There. Succesfully got planetologist mid skills

#

Now I have a points sink and I'm working on T2 Swordmaster

#

Need to go to the barrier wall I guess?

#

kay so

#

The canyon looks like Bottomless Pit

#

Is it or can I yeet into the abyss for loot

#

nevermind I fell

#

found out

#

Poor efficiency??

#

Sigh

#

Of course, even using great efficiency on foot, it's not as good as poor efficiency on the ground...

#

... Wait, shouldn't this have a scanner for the-

#

I'll do that for mine.

#

Swordmaster is so nice. Being able to climb whatever is nice

spare field
#

PROLBEM

#

TRAPPED IN BUGGY

#

Kay

#

don't go into the passenger seat ofa buggy

#

Only the turret and the driver seat

#

Last question for now. North or south is the exit to the rift? I thought I saw a path up in the south

tired gate
#

The giant hole in the ground? There’s like. 5 exits.

#

I dunno which one is where though.

spare field
#

Kay

#

4k Ethyrite, almost

#

I'm on my way back

spare field
#

there, it's all deposited, so you can refine whatever.

#

I should sleep.

#

I will attempt to craft more things later. For now, wheee.

#

bugger I want new armor... This slaver set looks terrible.

#

I do feel quite annoyed. The mining cutteray on the buggy doesn't reach up high enough. I need to test if I can scan a mineral and use the big cutter to get structural bonus

tired gate
#

I don’t believe so?

spare field
#

Weh. Anyways. @gilded verge if you process more Duraluminum save some for me, I want to upgrade one of the buggy storages to that Mk5 unique

gilded verge
#

There's also the rarer option for dedicated costume sets

#

Like I got atriedes deserter set

#

In main menu under gameplay you can also toggle the headpiece on/off

hybrid tartan
#

I kept meaning to look for that and forgetting, heh

tired gate
gilded verge
#

Yeah a lot of the armor... Is fine

#

It doesn't go too far into the 2021 movie

#

Which is fair

#

But also a disappointment

#

Because of just how amazing the visual design was

#

Like after the near perfect visual language of those two films, it was a very very high bar without copying exactly which they couldn't do due to some legal reasons/wanting to do their own thing - perfectly understandable

#

But leaves a kinda "really?" With a lot of the designs outside the ornithopters

tired gate
#

I do like their take on ol wormy.

#

The flaming maw is a brilliant touch.
