Server Challenge Submissions

[balmy falcon]

i'm going to bed

[tacit forge]

goodnight

[balmy falcon]

is there normally even this many scavs in GW??

not going to submit this, someone let me know if this is a valid submission or not and i'll actually compile the required evidence

[tranquil stream]

7 toll scavs on each of 2 in gw

[dense bone]

i literally lost the squid at one point and didn't know how to starve to death how did i even complete this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OM00oBQ4oMo

[tacit forge]

I finished descension!!

just need to put the clips together and upload it to yt

[tacit forge]

Descension proof
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2h3mv1BL6OU&ab_channel=Walekks

i spent 10 minutes trying to figure out a funny thumbnail and gave up

[sweet oracle]

hmm today i will begin to set up foe

[dense geode]

friendly reminder there is an orange lineage in outskirts

[sweet oracle]

i mean that's basically what the setup is

well i guess i also pick up a vulture mask in farms

but that part is standard score run stuff

[dense geode]

Was just making sure you were aware

[sweet oracle]

ballin

[austere schooner]

no jellyfish retrieval?

[sweet oracle]

real

[dense geode]

Oh, and also. If you reach filtration as the rain is coming. Head here and see if any blacks come running out. 5 came running up for me when I got there at 1-2 pips left on the timer

[dense geode]

A feast

[sweet oracle]

where did it go

where is my spear...

[dense geode]

I stole it

And gave it to the scavs

[tacit forge]

your spear ascended

[sweet oracle]

[balmy falcon]

the spear thing happened to me once too no idea why it happens

i tried throwing it and it did nothing and vanished

[sweet oracle]

i fogor about the outskirts toll bug

[balmy falcon]

the shades on hunter

[sweet oracle]

[balmy falcon]

okay now that i'm actually alert. genuinely, would this be a valid submission?

[verbal mural]

[balmy falcon]

i can just redo it, i reset the cycle, but this is. tedious

[tacit forge]

why would it be invalid

[verbal mural]

you also need to submit pictures of the vulture kills too, right?

[balmy falcon]

cannot tell if those were toll scavs or scavs from elsewhere in the region that just wandered over

yeah i have those, i'm just checking if the video is valid before i compile stuff

[tacit forge]

im gonna go watch the video

[balmy falcon]

i shit you not by the end there were like 10 scavs

a few literally wander into frame from off screen

[verbal mural]

oh jeez i see what you mean lol

[balmy falcon]

as long as i don't need to hibernate after elder i can reset until the other scavs stop coming or something

[tacit forge]

that might be an issue

however, you gave the masks to scavs, at the toll

so it might work

[tacit forge]

oh my god they did

i honestly dont know if this is valid

some of the scavs that were there at the beginning of the cycle seem to have wandered off somewhere

[coral nimbus]

amazing thumbnail

[balmy falcon]

yeah i genuinely don't know

at the end you see all six masks on screen but are the scavs from the toll?? hell if i know

[tacit forge]

yeah i spent a lot of time working on it

[coral nimbus]

slugcat plushie fixes any thumbnail

[tacit forge]

at the beginning it was mostly just a bunch of grey and black ones

some of them seem to be gone by the end

[tranquil stream]

check the appearance of ones you kitted the first before wandering scavs arrived

[coral nimbus]

To which scav toll are you trying to get elder masks to?

[balmy falcon]

SL gate

i think one of them went into the den so they're not all on screen at the end

[tranquil stream]

it still counts if you kit them and they are toll scavs

[balmy falcon]

@distant kestrel help

[coral nimbus]

Just farm out 14 extra vul masks to be completely sure

[balmy falcon]

[coral nimbus]

14 because there are 2 tolls

[sweet oracle]

bruh i cant post the civil discussion gif

[tacit forge]

epic embed fail

[coral nimbus]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1064666788618580069/1096419835791015946/ezgif.com-gif-maker_29.gif

[distant kestrel]

what's the matter @balmy falcon

[balmy falcon]

is this a valid elder submission for kitting cycle or do i need to redo it

a bunch of scavs wander in off screen at the end and i cannot really tell which ones were originally from the toll and which weren't

[distant kestrel]

this is why I hate this challenge

[balmy falcon]

the rules are kind of nonspecific here so i'm not sure what would count as it being 'valid'? i did give six scavs at the toll masks, i just don't know if they were toll scavs

[distant kestrel]

oit's so hard to tell who's a toll scav and who's not

I don't even know what to say

[balmy falcon]

[jagged igloo]

sounds to me like the challenge should just be to have six scavs with a mask on at a toll

[distant kestrel]

I think it's an L regardless because one scav got two masks

[distant kestrel]

YES I have suggested this like 3 times

[dense geode]

it claims another victim

[balmy falcon]

wait did it???

[tranquil stream]

that's what I said when I submitted it myself

[balmy falcon]

i'll just redo it

[tranquil stream]

it would be such a fun challenge to verify

[dense geode]

holy shit orange gang is here hello

[jagged igloo]

this bullshit about scavs being from or not from the toll is dumb as fuck because the challenge already has absolutely nothing to do with the nonexistent difficulty of walking around once you have a mask

[distant kestrel]

I always get the but every toll has 6 scavs

[balmy falcon]

apparently outskirts toll has 5

and the GW tolls have 7?

[distant kestrel]

why can't we just say 6 and make it easier for everyone involved

[tranquil stream]

GW tolls have 7 scavs

[tacit forge]

This challenge is so overcomplicated

[balmy falcon]

[sweet oracle]

it's like pilgrimage in that the challenge is pure rng and wasting your time

[dense geode]

true

[sweet oracle]

they made inv gameplay into a challenge

[balmy falcon]

i was going to rate elder like 3 but i might bump it just because of this confusion lmao

[sweet oracle]

[short rover]

I love it when mouthspearing stuns for a milisecond

[balmy falcon]

there needs to be a 'how frustrating was this challenge' besides the difficulty rating

[tacit forge]

Rate it 10

[dense geode]

reds?

[short rover]

white

[dense geode]

if its stunning for a milisecond, i was informed somtimes it just hits their backs instead

[distant kestrel]

ok well I'll ask someone if we can touch up elder so it's a consistent number of scavs at any toll

[dense geode]

instead of the mouth hitbox

[distant kestrel]

that guy hella got two masks though banbs

you got griefed

[short rover]

yeah ik its just unpleasant

[sweet oracle]

still waiting for the outskirts orange lineage green to respawn

it's been 3 cycles

actually 4

[dense geode]

You sure he hasn’t been running off to the toll or smth else?

[balmy falcon]

literally i couldn't even tell

it was just scav hell

[sweet oracle]

been killing the toll green too just in case

[distant kestrel]

also sorry you guys but challenge verification this weekend is not looking good

this final project is worth 40% of my grade it kinda needs a lot of elbow grease

[sweet oracle]

you should ummm double spawn garbage wastes

[sweet oracle]

i got 3 finals lined up next week and im playing rain world

burnout moment

[tacit forge]

its all good

dw about it

[dense geode]

I think the only one that lineages is the green that spawns in the toll room

[sweet oracle]

no it's just outside of the toll room

[short rover]

havent you been doing all the verifying for days

[balmy falcon]

oh boy

good luck timby

don't worry about verification, it's not like you're the only verifier anyway

[dense geode]

Nuh uh

[tacit forge]

how many other verifiers are there

[sweet oracle]

oh

[short rover]

just let people complain to the other verifiers

[sweet oracle]

slugboom

[balmy falcon]

like five

[sweet oracle]

well good thing ive been killing that one

[balmy falcon]

last i heard

[tacit forge]

because it seems like they just dont give a shit

[distant kestrel]

we did it server challenge submissions

we made the world a better place

[tacit forge]

[balmy falcon]

[tranquil stream]

finally!

[balmy falcon]

'masks don't need to be gathered in one cycle'

[sweet oracle]

did you kill them all in one cycle

[balmy falcon]

i guess you could get six in one cycle as hunter....?

[dense geode]

[sweet oracle]

i mean it's not that hard but still

[tacit forge]

did you

[balmy falcon]

hell no lol

[short rover]

yeah we need a difficulty tweak

you will doublespawn GW

[dense geode]

timby since you are here

[balmy falcon]

[dense geode]

do king vults masks count?

[sweet oracle]

kill all the cc vultures without cheese would be a pretty fun challenge i think

[distant kestrel]

new elder rework: do my navigator route and then do elder in the same cycle

[sweet oracle]

if a bit easy

[balmy falcon]

oh god

[short rover]

timby I learned eihopping because of sky islands but I can only properly do it right to left

[distant kestrel]

how often do you hit your hops

[tacit forge]

...with a tamed cyan liz that has to live or else its invalid

[short rover]

left to right 90%

[distant kestrel]

I'm equally consistent on both sides but I only hit like 40% of them

damnnnn

not bad

[short rover]

right to left like 30%

[sweet oracle]

wait fuck wrong video

ummm

[dense geode]

do you play one handed?

[sweet oracle]

average toll activity

HA

[distant kestrel]

write that down

[short rover]

no

I have two hands im gonna use em both

[sweet oracle]

look at who's the epic embed failure now

[tacit forge]

shut up

[dense geode]

classic scav toll moment

it wouldnt be a toll without something raining down from the sky

[short rover]

~~also my actual keyboard broke so Im playing on an office keyboard from 2002 ~~

[dense geode]

am i a freak then?

[distant kestrel]

damnnn

[short rover]

yes

[distant kestrel]

yes

but you're orange

so I forgive you

[sweet oracle]

tempted to become orange for when i do ascension

[dense geode]

F = pickup and V = throw

[sweet oracle]

planning on that as my 10th challenge

[dense geode]

rivhorror me all you want, im good with the keybinds

[tacit forge]

jump - 2
movement - ijkl
pickup/eat - ctrl
throw - tab
map - right bracket

these are the controls of a friend of mine

[distant kestrel]

any default controls fans in chat

[dense geode]

okay what the fuck

[tranquil stream]

what's wrong with you?? Bind it to q and e

[tacit forge]

I DONT KNOW

they are insane

[sweet oracle]

we have red lizard at home

[dense geode]

no. i use my index finger for pick up and throw. ring, middle, and pinkie for wasd movement

[tranquil stream]

pinkie for wasd?

[tacit forge]

any controller players in chat

[sweet oracle]

[dense geode]

i had to learn it for calamity, and it stuck ever since

that mod has so many ability buttons

[verbal mural]

if i double spawn gw do i have to kit out twice as many toll scavs

for elder

[tranquil stream]

I lost my controller bragging rights about a month ago

[tacit forge]

calamity uses like half your fucking keyboard lmao

[tranquil stream]

I just wanted to fpc and other movement stuff

[dense geode]

yeha exactly

[tacit forge]

[distant kestrel]

not anymore

[short rover]

yeah I switched from controller just for fpc

[distant kestrel]

it's 6 scavs at any toll now

[verbal mural]

[distant kestrel]

rather than all

[short rover]

its such an important tech

[balmy falcon]

that's... unique

[tacit forge]

and theyre fucking good at it too

like they do actual movement with it

[balmy falcon]

if it works i guess

[tranquil stream]

my friend tried to bind some actions on his mouse

I screamed in terror

[dense geode]

okay i cant get over this. why is your pick up button so far away from your throw button. double spear stabbing sounds hellish like that

[balmy falcon]

okay to be fair my pick up is left shift and my throw is right shift

i play with both hands though so it's not that bad

[tacit forge]

they refuse to anwser my questions about these unholy controls to this day

[dense geode]

i love how it seems everyone has their own fucked up keybinds in some way within this community

[balmy falcon]

look i'm used to separating controls based on hands my hollow knight keybinds are even weirder

[tacit forge]

no i play with the default xbox controller setup

[balmy falcon]

too attached to being a wasd player

[verbal mural]

d = left
a = up
w = right
s = down

6 = grab
L = throw
space = map
ctrl + shift + alt + enter + RMB = jump

[balmy falcon]

why is 6 grab???

[verbal mural]

anyone else in chat use this

[dense geode]

6 coming out of left field be like:

[balmy falcon]

jump

[verbal mural]

nah im just memeing

was waiting for someone to notice jump

arrow keys = movement
v = grab
x = throw
c = map
space = jump

is my actual keybinds

[balmy falcon]

huh. neat

[dense geode]

i like to consider myself somewhat good with my keybinds, even if it cramps my head after a bit, only downside is i struggle to do some advanced tech when going to the left. like extended slides i struggle hard going to the left. and when i fpc its usually on the left side of the pole i miss the boost.

[short rover]

I use wasd, space jump, ; grab, ' throw

[verbal mural]

nice

[balmy falcon]

okay yall wanna see my hollow knight keybinds

wasd - move
space - jump
j - attack
k - quick cast
l - dream nail
/ - cdash
left shift - dash
e - inventory
tab - map
f - focus

[dense geode]

question. how do you handle moving and throwing at the same time?

[tranquil stream]

j - grab, k - throw

just because of the bump on J

wasd and space

[verbal mural]

i keep my right hand on arrow keys and left hand controls grab/throw/jump

[dense geode]

i cant judge these cause ive only ever played hk with a controller. but i rebinded my X button to be quick cast instead of the spell default

[tacit forge]

jesus

i tried playing hk on keyboard once and i had a fucking anuerysm

[balmy falcon]

fair

[tacit forge]

couldnt do it

[short rover]

I rebinded throw and grab so many times due to my (now broken) keyboard's tendancy to ignore inputs on random keys

[balmy falcon]

i've always been a keyboard gamer, so

[dense geode]

oh i missed the arrow key part. my b

[short rover]

can't even remember my og controls

[verbal mural]

ah

[balmy falcon]

i cannot pogo for the life of me with a controller

i'm sure i'd be absolute shit at rain world on a controller

[austere schooner]

wasd but w is jump

[dense geode]

the last room in path of pain is hard on controller due to the pogo being wonky sometimes

but in combat it works

[balmy falcon]

rip

[dense geode]

what is up

[austere schooner]

f

[sweet oracle]

[balmy falcon]

yeah cause i tried using analog stick and i can pogo if i'm staying still, but the moment i start moving i eat shit

[tranquil stream]

space

[balmy falcon]

and using the dpad feels Weird

[dense geode]

bruh, i think its tiem for a new keyboard

[short rover]

yes

[verbal mural]

[tacit forge]

[dense geode]

now do ascension with this

go on

[sweet oracle]

it does have a mini joystick on it but that's not really in the spirit of playing rw with a flight stick

[short rover]

real talk what is everyones fast roll bound to

[dense geode]

SAME

[sweet oracle]

[tacit forge]

i always do it like
2d games = controller
3d games = kbm

[dense geode]

oh and i got survivor rank

finally

[austere schooner]

rw with airplane controls but they also make your monitor tilt

[verbal mural]

welcome to the gang

[balmy falcon]

i don't play 3d games very much cause video game induced motion sickness but i just make do when i do

[tacit forge]

im only at level 20

[dense geode]

but back to this. i feel that banba. dpad feels so weird to me

[balmy falcon]

dpad feels so clunky to use

[sweet oracle]

hey guys you want to see old armored core's control scheme

[balmy falcon]

but i cannot figure out analog stick controls

[dense geode]

its not so much the clunky, just it feels odd for my fingers to use it

[balmy falcon]

fair honestly

[tacit forge]

me too

really the only 3d games i play a lot are: ultrakill, sw battlefront 2 and breath of the wild

[sweet oracle]

[balmy falcon]

HUH?

[tranquil stream]

[verbal mural]

[tacit forge]

[balmy falcon]

what is this game

[sweet oracle]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/497294084348575754/1058388413964886036/2022-12-30_09-16-22.mp4

it's fun

[verbal mural]

WIN

[dense geode]

wait thats a thing?

[sweet oracle]

they don't make a game with normal human controls until like uhhh

2004

which is like 5 years after people figured out how games control

[tacit forge]

i had that with games like skyrim and witcher 3

literally just got a headache from them

[balmy falcon]

this just looks like weird gundam ultrakill to me

[balmy falcon]

unfortunately

[dense geode]

you would hate vr

[balmy falcon]

i can't play outer wilds too much in one sitting because the way the camera moves makes me nauseous

[tacit forge]

surprisingly, ultrakill is perfectly fine for me

[sweet oracle]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/497294084348575754/1060305702163324928/2023-01-04_16-14-00.mp4

[verbal mural]

you would love the epic rollercoaster rides vr game

[sweet oracle]

armored core goes hard

[balmy falcon]

vr is fine for me actually

[verbal mural]

not nauseating at all

[tacit forge]

brother i would perish

[balmy falcon]

maybe because i can actually move around while wearing the headset?

but on a computer

[dense geode]

i think the closest i ever got to motion sickness from a game is any game that has that type of camera where it doesnt stop going down when you look down. it just goes in a big circle. (like in dusk)

that shit sucks

[balmy falcon]

augh

[dense geode]

or a free movement game like boneworks

[dense geode]

thats odd

what did you play?

[balmy falcon]

a lot of vr games are fine for me

i don't remember their names

[balmy falcon]

it's when the camera is 3d and i'm sitting still that it's an issue

[sweet oracle]

people are hyped for armored core 6 for good reason

[balmy falcon]

minecraft used to make me motion sick too

[dense geode]

beat saber

[sweet oracle]

partially because the last armored core game was 10 years ago

the pain

[tacit forge]

no mans sky was a fucking nightmare for me i could barely play it

half the screen is just ui

[balmy falcon]

i have heard very mixed things about that game

[dense geode]

its actually gotten way better last i heard

[sweet oracle]

YOU HAVENT SEEN SHIT TILL YOUVE SEEN SYSTEM SHOCK 1

[dense geode]

like the devs stuck with the game through the rocky launch, fixed it, added even more stuff that wasnt promised, overall it ended pretty well last i checked

[balmy falcon]

that's nice

[verbal mural]

beat saber is really fun lol

[tacit forge]

yeah but this seems like an older game so i can excuse it for being wacky

[sweet oracle]

'94 yeah

i fucking love system shock 1 even though it's jank as fuck

[dense geode]

final boss chan breaking my entire wrist:

[verbal mural]

oh my fucking god final boss chan is hell

[dense geode]

i can do it, but the 2 spam parts end my runs

[sweet oracle]

i've only played some vr on my brother's rig

[dense geode]

every time

[sweet oracle]

played some h3vr

[verbal mural]

beat expert+ once (barely) and haven't touched it since

[sweet oracle]

i crave more h3vr

[verbal mural]

SAME

[sweet oracle]

[dense geode]

bogus i would hate playing this game. how do you do it

[sweet oracle]

after you play enough 90's games you start to absorb the jank

[dense geode]

also. final boss chan is harder than ghost simply because it has actual patterns built into it that makes it fun and challenging. ghost just feels like pattern spam garbage

dont @ me

[sweet oracle]

(play blood it's one of the best FPS games ever imo)

[dense geode]

i played half life for the first time recently. god the jank

[sweet oracle]

i uhhh actually haven't played half life

i have like at least 4000 hours playing doom though i'd say

[dense geode]

its pretty good. though maybe a smidge overhyped if you ask me

[verbal mural]

agreed lol, ghost is garbage
also sorry for the @

[sweet oracle]

there's a lot of hugely influential games that are not that interesting in retrospect because everyone iterated on what they did to make something better

[dense geode]

id still have to say spin eternally is my favorite level even if i cant beat it

i love the ost, and the patterns feel fun

[sweet oracle]

like system shock 2 is super duper influential but uhhh it kinda sucks if im gonna be real

play deus ex instead

[dense geode]

ive heard a lot of things bout deus ex

[verbal mural]

every time i play spin my muscle memory at it gets worse

[dense geode]

never got around to looking into it

OH

[sweet oracle]

it's really, really good

it's also jank as fuck

[dense geode]

this ui reminds me of the clunky stalker SOC inventory

[sweet oracle]

and remember, take the gep gun

[dense geode]

i can do the song. its just that part i fail cause my hands struggle still to do similar patterns at the saem time out of sync at that speed

[dense geode]

ill look into it. tho im savin for totk rn lol

[sweet oracle]

thankfully if you want to play system shock 1 there's a remake coming out in like a month

thank you based from software

🙏

[tacit forge]

holy fuck that saxophone made me transend

[dense geode]

[dense geode]

if an old game series can get a new game, theres still hope for titanfall 3 :praying

[tacit forge]

[dense geode]

tenor gifs are 1984'd

[dense geode]

[sweet oracle]

the discord moderator fears the save as image button

[tacit forge]

where silksong

[dense geode]

silksong is gonna get delayed

im fucking calling it

[tacit forge]

i dont even know anymore

[dense geode]

ik we arent entitled to anything but give us an image or a small message at least tc

[steel compass]

this implies they provide a release date

[dense geode]

they provided a window

[tacit forge]

xbox is like 100% confident it will release in june

but they probably last heard from team cherry like a year ago

[steel compass]

wasn't that xbox

[dense geode]

yeah

if it does get delayed, we still get news technically

still a win

[steel compass]

TRUE

[tacit forge]

i remember there being a thing like, where nintendo deleted it off the eshop because they hadnt heard from team cherry in ages

but i might be making that up idk

[steel compass]

oh yeah the whole shop data thing

some data got changed and people started freaking out

[tacit forge]

like they keep putting it on their twitter and tiktok and shit

[dense geode]

hk fans are deranged

seriously, cmon

[steel compass]

wait why are we talking about hollow knight in here

i thought this was #downpour-spoilers

[dense geode]

[tacit forge]

downpour isnt allowed here unfortunately

[short rover]

jesus christ I don't remember survivors wall being this bad

[sweet oracle]

my brother we are in a #vanilla-spoilers thread

[short rover]

do the 3 whites always come down?

[steel compass]

I once had a whole like 20 minute discussion about ||slugpups|| (dp spoiler) in here before i realized that it was this channel

[sweet oracle]

usually not

[dense geode]

sometimes

[tacit forge]

[short rover]

i swear they stayed above the ball room

[sweet oracle]

[austere schooner]

rooms load differently now kapu

[dense geode]

shhhhhhh dont inform the staff

[short rover]

I know

[austere schooner]

so all the lizards go down

[steel compass]

here's what's left of it

shoutout to that one white lizard that sees your vulture mask from the other end of the screen so by the time you get all the way up it just grabs you

he's a real one

i saw a gif of this yesterday with the caption stuck in the cycle and i cannot find it anymore

[sweet oracle]

its in the post above

[steel compass]

also why does it have the game over gamer at the end

nope not that one

it's also in underhang

[sweet oracle]

ohhh that one

[steel compass]

that's in SI isn't it

in the room with the yellow lizards while the echo is active

[sweet oracle]

that one is in, uhhh

you know

spoilers

it's in #downpour-meme-gallery★ though

[steel compass]

valid point

[steel compass]

yeah i may have restarted hunter runs too many times

[flat cedar]

I'm trying to do the Elder challenge but the scavs keep trading their masks between each other, what should I do?

[tacit forge]

elder is weird

the rules got changed twice just this night

[flat cedar]

They sometimes jump, grab a pearl of the toll and drop their masks

[tacit forge]

anyways uhhh i would help

but the tired sleepy

goodnight chat

[flat cedar]

Gn walekks

[coral nimbus]

Yo big thumb lmfao

and gn

[flat cedar]

I almost got it on this run but a vulture killed one scav, also this funny happened lmao

[austere schooner]

[short rover]

Well i did ascension

My movement was rather embarassing tho

[patent turtle]

jesus that scav went to heaven and back

[flat cedar]

Okay, I think I've finally done It right
https://youtu.be/9id4cVEM3o0

[short rover]

Also was anyone elses igt super fucked

[flat cedar]

Here are the vultures

[balmy falcon]

holy shit

[dense geode]

Rain World: Space Program

[flat cedar]

Wait, the 4th vulture was an incomplete cycle

here's the right one

Okay, now if everything goes right I'll become a Champion

[proven shadow]

i am actually going to punch a wall

this is the second time my red kill was stolen

in the weirdest way possible

it's just crazy how consistently unlucky i get with that

4 attempts failed just because of the reds

at least 3 because the yellow disappears into the void

if you mistime entering drainage, the axo might die to centipedes before you arrive as well

foe seemed like an innocent bit of scoreful practice, but in reality turns out to be about as frustrating as mother

maybe worse

on mother, there's only one spot where you can be fucked over by rng

here it's at least 3

[distant kestrel]

I found the challenge fun outside of the axo,,

[proven shadow]

actually no, that's not even true - every single lizard on the list except for green and cyan can ruin you

[proven shadow]

my shaded route actually seems better for the axo kill than the filtration route

because i arrive to drainage right as rain is about to start

so with a bit of luck, i show up in the centipede room right as they all start to run away

i have also made the timer a much smaller issue by optimising the fuck out of my shaded movement

clawed back like a minute

plenty of time to not find the yellow or fail the red kill

[flat cedar]

I think I did it right
https://youtu.be/MIpJvOiSWnc

[sweet oracle]

just hit max outskirts threat from a single monster kelp

he forgot

this lineage bro

still hasn't happened

sure have lineaged 2 overgrowns though

if it hasn't lineaged this cycle i'm restarting the setup

[coral nimbus]

This is bogus man

[dense geode]

I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage I hate lineage

[sweet oracle]

has anyone ported one step to 1.9 yet

(mod that makes lineages guaranteed)

[dense geode]

not that im aware of

wouldnt that fall under using a mod to set it up anyway though?

[sweet oracle]

man why aren't you allowed to set up challenges with mods

very dumb rule but most of the challenges aren't fun anyway so

[dense geode]

idk but its bs is some cases

[sweet oracle]

i guess it's par for the course

[dense geode]

[sweet oracle]

why are overgrowns like this

environmental storytelling

[sweet oracle]

happened again

[cunning glacier]

I have achieved stupidity so now I will do bad navigator

[distant kestrel]

[sweet oracle]

they got the lizard before i could

[sweet oracle]

why is this 50% lineage taking hours

[dawn dragon]

day x of asking if my journey is verified

the backlog consumes

[distant kestrel]

Don't worry summer break is nearing

[sweet oracle]

i'm shrimply chilling

[austere schooner]

it’s kinda insane that timby’s the only person who’s verified any challenges in over a month

[distant kestrel]

Then I can dedícate my entire life to eradicating the backlog

[austere schooner]

besides autumn checking her own i guess

[dawn dragon]

LMAO

[distant kestrel]

Yes I'm not getting a lot of help huh

[sweet oracle]

anyone got a prepped foe save

[distant kestrel]

The prep is getting a kv mask and sleeping in the mid SI shelter

[sweet oracle]

im getting closer to doing that

unironically

[distant kestrel]

It's a fun route

[sweet oracle]

this 50% lineage hasn't happened in 3 hours

[distant kestrel]

Just make sure you can consistently fuck the red up

And do a bunch of movement

[sweet oracle]

which red, the industrial pit?

[distant kestrel]

Eslides should suffice

Yeah thats the one I go for

[sweet oracle]

fuck it i'm gonna do a practice run of that

lmao

[distant kestrel]

🙏

It's more fun to verify that way

[dawn dragon]

when you get to it

[flat cedar]

TIL there's no scavengers spawns in shoreline

[distant kestrel]

I'll get to it eventually

Someone has to do it

This is what I signed up for

Well maybe not to this caliber but regardless

[flat cedar]

Very weird, I recall seeing them in shoreline across multiple saves, but now that I needed them they took long enough

[dawn dragon]

they spawn in msc

at the lttm room

[austere schooner]

leave a challenge unverified and see how long it takes for someone else to do it

[flat cedar]

Oh that explains a lot lmao

[distant kestrel]

Is wrosin still unverified

They submitted charged on the 18th of last month

[flat cedar]

Yes, still unverified

[dawn dragon]

timby leaving unverified stuff in the middle of no where to catch the other verifiers lacking

[sweet oracle]

okay no i'm not doing the sky islands route

practiced killing the industrial red a while and god this is so inconsistent

the mouth spears just don't work??

plus wrangling it to the left side of the room can take over a minute

so yeah, no, that's definitely not happening

[distant kestrel]

Sadge

[sweet oracle]

would rather have the most inconsistent part of my run at the start

[distant kestrel]

The true rng check is the salamander not getting killed by centipedes

[sweet oracle]

man why don't they allow mods for challenge setup

that's so dumb

[distant kestrel]

I think it's kinda silly

And we can't even confirm you didnt use any

[sweet oracle]

makes sense for stuff like chef i guess

i'd like to share this hunter freeze frame

madness combat looking mf

[verbal mural]

it looks like +

[sweet oracle]

:huntercoolbean:

man that'd be a god tier emote

the harvest is bountiful

time to give this a single test run and then call it a day

i have no clue what my route exactly is i'm just gonna say fuck it we ball

say, no need to rest at the end of foe right

challenge description doesn't seem to mention it

just realized my save doesn't have enough food to karma cache

well it's just a cycle

[verbal mural]

if you have a cyan also lineaged in outskirts, i'd recommend starting in the shelter in farm arrays by the outskirts gate and get the orange kill right away

then you could get red, green, blue, cyan, white, and pink in outskirts, go ds then fs

otherwise just start in hi for the cyan kill

[dawn dragon]

si route sounds brutal if you can't get the pit red kill consistently

not to mention movement required

[sweet oracle]

movement required plus the HUGE time loss that can be setting up the red kill

no thanks

[dawn dragon]

honestly the best route is what shining said and you set up everything in SU

you can get a boomstick to cheese the red too

[sweet oracle]

had two attempts fail at the start because the spear went through its mouth

i just want an attempt to get off the ground, man

[dawn dragon]

nice hunter i would take body damage from a mouth spear from it one (1) time then bite it one (1) thousand times

[dawn dragon]

i feel you gotta either start close to a yellow or a red

for foe

if youre skilled at reds then start at yellow else starting at a red may be better

you can also omega cheese the red by throwing bait and boomsticking + spearing it once its back is turned to you

[sweet oracle]

i'm pretty good at reds

had a boomstick but a scav stole it from my shelter

[dawn dragon]

guess you gotta mouthspear now

[sweet oracle]

it fucking happened a third time

that's it for today i think

[dawn dragon]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1066866961675456512/1100805626289995776/SPOILER_image.png

[sweet oracle]

three spears clipped through its mouth IN A ROW

[dawn dragon]

i need to keep practising in non arena cos i feel the pit red room/outskirts red fucks my timing up a little

how are you practising btw

which shelter did you start from

[proven shadow]

i was about to say i was just BARELY short on time, but now i look at the kills and realise it's better this way

having the perfect attempt ruined because i forgot the green would be heartbreaking

[dawn dragon]

you also forgot the salamander

[proven shadow]

yeah, that's the barely short on time part

[dawn dragon]

i think sh is a bit too far off imo

[proven shadow]

it went into its den before i could get to it

[dawn dragon]

which room did you get the red kill btw?

[proven shadow]

timby also said filtration is more optimal

but i'm doing shaded because i'm not like other girls

and it's doable

[dawn dragon]

[proven shadow]

i just need rng that doesn't suck

[dawn dragon]

is there a black you can get closer to the entrance by lineaging?

[proven shadow]

and to not play bad

[proven shadow]

well

you can lineage this one

but i can't be bothered to do it

[verbal mural]

[proven shadow]

the timer is not that bad, really

but ACTUALLY, hold up

i can make the shaded route actually pretty easy

with a bit more lineage action

[dawn dragon]

grrrr tenor banned

[proven shadow]

the room with all the black lizards?

it has one special den

[dawn dragon]

oh god

you are not suggesting to lineage the yellow right

[proven shadow]

well

it's an option

honestly, i don't need it

[dawn dragon]

i guess it has time save benefit rather than going for a hunt for the yellow

[proven shadow]

the outskirts yellow will EVENTUALLY work with me and not fuck off to a different dimension

[dawn dragon]

gets killed by toll scavs

dies of cringe

[proven shadow]

that hasn't happened to my knowledge

it seems surprisingly decent at staying alive

it just hides from me really well

[dawn dragon]

not to you

[austere schooner]

what if you start in drainage then go to shaded

[dawn dragon]

what if you start in fs

gotta set up the non 1 way garbage tho

honestly if you start from the LF-SU gate shelter you can probably nab all 7 you need with some setup

then if you do all of this in like, 7 mins you still have 4 mins to spare to zoom through DS, get the salamander and black in FS

[austere schooner]

maybe foe is secretly the worst challenge

trade lineage garbage for difficulty

[dawn dragon]

lol..................................

[distant kestrel]

I had fun w/ it

maybe i'm just too good at rain world

[dawn dragon]

i had fun killing reds

i think they are the most well designed creatures in rain world

[dense geode]

foe was fun

at least past killing the red

[quaint warren]

whats up people, heres my first challenge submission https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=miRiWMQraGQ

[proven shadow]

i just realised that all of my foe grinding was foolish and pointless

i had no reason to start AT the black lizard spawn for my shaded routing

i could tame one, and then put it down at the start of a cycle

saving a decent chunk of time

[dawn dragon]

tame all lizard types

[proven shadow]

i wish that would be possible

[dawn dragon]

nah they will infight

also tamed reds are horrible to fight

[proven shadow]

better yet, they just don't coexist in the same region

[dawn dragon]

unless you have a boomstick

[proven shadow]

so you're fucked either way

[proven shadow]

the tamed and boomstick parts were completely unnecessary

[stone sable]

honestly if that was a challenge to do so in one save it might be worth having friends of friends lol

[proven shadow]

reds are horrible to fight

[dawn dragon]

just mouthspear them

[proven shadow]

oh, you sweet summer child

[dense geode]

mouth spearing is somewhat inconsistent from my experience

wrong ping oops

srry

[dawn dragon]

it's just that shrimple

[proven shadow]

mouth spearing black lizards is also inconsistent, so you're accidentally still correct

[dense geode]

the moment the spear hits their back somehow instead of the mouth hitbox: not so shrimple anymore

[dawn dragon]

i mean black lizards dont really open their mouths so

[dense geode]

and they insta get your ass:

[dawn dragon]

nice hunter i would take body damage from a mouth spear from it one (1) time then bite it one (1) thousand times

[proven shadow]

i'm just thinking about the routing right now

how far left do you think i can take a black lizard from shaded

[dawn dragon]

can black liz climb walls or poles

[stone sable]

poles

not walls

[dense geode]

you'll get stuck right before the gate

i tried during friend

they cant get past this

[proven shadow]

that's already very good though

would save me like 4 minutes

because my current route is just kill the black, and then run for a while

[dense geode]

me who went to filtration for my black lizard kill, completely forgetting shaded was a thing:

[proven shadow]

wasting 1/3 of a cycle

filtration is the lame route

well, not lame, but that's what everyone does

if you see a chance to be special, you take that

[dawn dragon]

just shelter in SH_S01

[proven shadow]

that's the plan

[south mural]

Why are you guys bringing Black lizards and where?

[proven shadow]

i'm gonna have SO MUCH free time now

holy shit

[proven shadow]

okay, so

foe challenge, right

kill all 9 lizards on one cycle

[south mural]

The "taming stuff"?

Yeah you can grenade him in that room

[proven shadow]

the optimal route is currently to go chimney to filtration, but why do optimal when you can go with your gut instinct

[dense geode]

[proven shadow]

i am doing shaded to drainage as a result

and it's VERY tight on time

doable, i've gotten extremely close several times

only stopped by bad RNG

[dawn dragon]

what do you need chimney for?

[proven shadow]

but the strat of taming the black liz before slaughtering it next cycle seems efficient af

[dawn dragon]

cant you just start in hi if you lineage the yellow in su

you could also lineage everything in su if you feel like it lol...........

[south mural]

Btw where is your challenger role tannyn?

[dense geode]

the mods havent verified any of my currently 3 (bout to be 4) challenges

[proven shadow]

well, my idea was starting at the very bottom of chimney and going down, because that room has cyans sometimes camping out at the top

[dawn dragon]

by mods you mean timby

oh

[dense geode]

im a liitle peeved by it ngl but it is what it is

[south mural]

Salamanders, Blacks

[proven shadow]

starting at the bottom of it makes you miss them, which is not a big loss but could be awkward

[dawn dragon]

yeah those are the only 2 you cant get

then you can just go ds fs and shelter

[proven shadow]

that is a thing you could do

[south mural]

FS?

[proven shadow]

but it's very finnicky and takes time to set up

[proven shadow]

filtration

[dense geode]

if they would just open challenge apps i swear the backlog issue wouldnt be so awful but oh well

[dawn dragon]

the backlog consumes

[dense geode]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1004627119516700782/1103567814905839616/attachment.gif

[south mural]

Why dont they just ask for some of ppl with "Ascension" roles to be able to verify challenges?

[proven shadow]

you probably mean ascended

but yeah, idk either

[dense geode]

id ask gwyn but i dont wanna bug staff. i already asked once

[dense geode]

also yeah

who knows

the helpers have lives of their own so its understandable they cant verify 24/7

[south mural]

Noone can, but at least some help would be useful?

[proven shadow]

except timby

timby protects

[dense geode]

timby carrying the verification process:

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/824027398948782180/1102435225084117132/saint.gif

wait

[proven shadow]

it kinda fits

[south mural]

Timby carries it hard, but i think he would welcome some help too? I mean he got life on its own too.

[proven shadow]

i never argued anything different

i've expressed my willingness to help out as well

[dense geode]

same

[patent turtle]

Question, what do we do if there’s a very long pause in the recording of a challenge? Cut it out or leave it to ensure no foul play? or would presence of nearby creatures allow a cut to be made to prevent the recording from being too long?

[dense geode]

id just leave it

staff can just skip ahead if they notice a long pause

it'd look more sus if there was a cut i think

enjoy the longer uploading time tho

[balmy falcon]

others just left it in

verifiers don't mind

i cut the pauses out myself though

i only cut it if i actually pause the game though

[proven shadow]

okay, turns out getting the black lizards out of that basement they're in kinda sucks

they are just unwilling to go up the pole

who would've thought - herding blind creatures is kinda difficult

[patent turtle]

Ah, ok then

[proven shadow]

okay, another problem discovered with my plan

scavengers

escorting a slow lizard through scav-rich environments sucks

[proven shadow]

i can't take this

black lizards are so scatterbrained

it grabs the tiniest morsel of food and then carries it halfway backwards through the region

while being excruciatingly slow and wasting half a cycle to do it

it refuses to go into shelters

this was not a good idea

black lizards need to be all put down, it's the right thing to do

they're too stupid to survive

[dense geode]

oh innocent naïve past me

thinking that climbing communication tower with a snail would be the hardest part

when in reality

its getting down

[balmy falcon]

[dense geode]

also how do i stop snotnose from moving me

its fucking annoyign

[proven shadow]

i heard the snail launches the worm into pits

[dense geode]

it explodes at the slightest bump and sends the worm flying

[proven shadow]

sounds fun

🙂

[dense geode]

yeah 🙃

least it'll be funny and worth it to troll whoever verifies the video

[proven shadow]

what are we spending our lives on, man

[dense geode]

i just want to play more rain world. this allows me too

[proven shadow]

i've got exams coming up, and here i am

herding the dumbest lizards in rain world

just so i can get one more tick in a spreadsheet

[patent turtle]

I’m curious, would it be feasible to just stockpile food in the shelters along the way or rush the worm and snail to shelters and then get food in between

[proven shadow]

i could've done like 4 attempts in this time

probably succeeded too

[proven shadow]

food isn't really a problem

[balmy falcon]

for guardian? maybe

[proven shadow]

it's just the whole getting around thing

[balmy falcon]

would make the set up even more annoying than it is though

[proven shadow]

one thing that is definitely worth setting up though is lizard rep

gonna max that shit out before guardian

[patent turtle]

yeah just cause that makes things less of a pain in the ass

[balmy falcon]

max out lizard rep and probably bump scav rep right?

[patent turtle]

think my rep in industrial and outskirts is pretty high since the lizards were pretty chill with me on journey runs

[patent turtle]

Yea that too

[proven shadow]

scav rep is always max or close to it for challenges

no reason for this not to be the case

[balmy falcon]

fair fair

having chieftain rep is so fucking annoying though

if elder is teaching me anything

[dense geode]

i did it

[dense geode]

i have a psychology thing due monday, so same

[cunning glacier]

Do a slight amount of murder

[dense geode]

okay so now that ive taken the the worm and snotnose to the top of coms, i just go to guardians now?

[balmy falcon]

i did and i still had stupid high rep in GW should've ganked one before setting up for elder

[cunning glacier]

Yep

[balmy falcon]

probably should gank one and then save before doing the mask ferry run

[dense geode]

can confirm, it helps A TON

the white lizard staring at me as i pass him:

[proven shadow]

okay, finally

this was horrendous

actually made me almost miss pilgrimage

[dense geode]

time to figure this mess out

[dense geode]

impossible

[proven shadow]

i think you're better off going another way

[dense geode]

oh right that way

[barren sphinx]

can i submit challenge runs on mobile

[dense geode]

i forgor thats a route

[dense geode]

if you can access the form, yes

[barren sphinx]

i wanna do descension but im not home rn
