#

That's the power of Knowledge™️ lizgreengaming

#

Nice job!

torn grail
#

What’s your time zone

#

That was at 4 am for me

#

Lmao

#

@brisk snow

#

Anyway

#

I’m heading to school rn

#

When I come back I’m gonna do intense rain worlding

#

And try to get out of shaded

#

Like the other way

#

Not the way I came in

#

Yall have been helping me so much and you didn’t even react to the emoji on the forum

#

Only 1 non important person did

#

Jk lmao

#

I feel offended though

#

You should be ashamed

#

Yeah go ahead and text to everything that ISNT that one emoji

#

I hope I make it to five pebbles soon

brisk snow
#

You don't even know what "progress" is.

#

Just keep doing what you're doing, you'll find all the cool things eventually.

torn grail
#

Ok

#

Aren’t I supposed to do something tho

#

In shaded

#

Cause I’m pretty sure I could glow

#

I think I heard someone else talk ant it

#

Abt

#

And I saw a glowing me

#

In the bunker after the karma gate

#

Or in it I guess

#

I meant like on the other side of the door

#

On the right

#

There’s a bunker

#

Right after the door

#

Inside it I saw a glowing monk

#

For like 2 seconds

#

What does that mean

#

@brisk snow

#

Sorry for ping

#

Like I heard someone say something about squids

#

Like the swuods

brisk snow
torn grail
#

That fly

#

They’re where and stuff

#

White

#

Like and they make me glow and stuff

#

Where can I find those

brisk snow
torn grail
#

No like

brisk snow
#

There's several different ways to get light in the Citadel, some better than others.

torn grail
#

The squids that fly

torn grail
#

The squid cat

#

That glows

#

And it hangs from trees

brisk snow
#

oh yeah

torn grail
#

Yeah

#

And the flying white swuids

brisk snow
#

... flies?

torn grail
#

In look to to moon

brisk snow
#

what

torn grail
#

Flying white squids

brisk snow
#

I have no clue what you're talking about.

torn grail
#

Where can I get those

#

In rain world

brisk snow
#

There are lots of ways to get light. Keep going, and keep an eye out for them.

torn grail
#

They’re in looks to the moon

#

I don’t wanna hold a cat all the time

#

If I can just eat those and always glow

#

Isn’t it like stolen enlightenment

#

The trophy

#

So how do I get it

brisk snow
#

Don't chase what you clearly know nothing about. Focus on what you can do now, with the things you know about and have access to.

torn grail
#

I tried killing the cat to eat it but it makes it stop glowing and also i cant eat it

#

And no way im holding it

#

I couldnt get past the easiest part cause ot kept wiggling around

#

For hours

#

And it also increases my hitbox to go through stuff

#

Where are the white flies

#

Tell me

#

Im genuinely not doing this

#

its impossible

#

I climb 10x slower

#

Cause of that stupd thing

#

Tell me if theres another close light source

#

Please

#

<@&1137895527271379055>

void jolt
lime forge
#

This is such a tragic chat monkwail

torn grail
#

Im in shaded

void jolt
torn grail
#

I need another light

torn grail
void jolt
#

You’ll know it when you see it

torn grail
#

Not the hanging cat please

#

ANything but that

#

I literally cannot move when I hold one

#

It makes me so much slower and halves my jump height

urban field
torn grail
#

And my hitbox way bigger

#

Like I cant hold that thing

#

Fat fuck should lose some pounds

#

Sorry

#

The cat is cute

#

But still any other light source

#

THIS IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT

#

THAT STUPID CAT LAUNCHED ME DOWN 200000 METERS

#

INTO A LIZARD

#

just started playing and already done for the day

#

im not doing this rn

#

I wish i could eat it alive

#

to make me glow

#

instead of it having a seizure 24/7

#

honestly would be better to put it out of its misery

torn grail
#

if so then please give me something else

#

i really need help

#

there were like 4 people mtyping here and none of them answered my question

urban field
#

We cant really just, give you a direct answer all the time

torn grail
#

great

#

i wasted my uses of the glowing orbs

#

do they grow back eventually

#

in the same cycle

torn grail
#

its my poaythrough

#

playthrough

#

i coudl google a yt tutorial and trust me i wouldve done that ages ago

#

if there was one

urban field
#

Because Rain World is a game about finding out what things do and what things exist by yourself

#

If we told you what things did it ruins part of the gameplay loop

torn grail
#

ok dont worry it wont ruin my playthrough

#

can you tell me now

urban field
#

Uh

torn grail
#

??

#

oh hell nah

#

game basically told me im underlevelled

#

im leaving shaded

#

"there are many paths to explore, if you are feeling stuck visit a previous region, there might be something that can help you survive better here or find a different path. however, there is nothing stopping you from overcoming this region's challenges now"

#

not a tip btw

#

not a remix tip

#

this was when i respawned from the bunker after dying

urban field
#

...?

torn grail
#

it had the text on the bottom wheree the cycle number would be

urban field
#

No thats definitely a Remix tip

torn grail
#

nope

urban field
#

Ive never seen it in vanilla ever

#

No one else has ever brought it up

torn grail
#

the text on the bottom of the screen

urban field
#

Thats not exclusive to vanilla

torn grail
#

it is

#

i turned remix off

#

brb

brisk snow
urban field
brisk snow
#

There are other things you can do.

urban field
#

I just looked at the wiki

#

Its a remix thing

brisk snow
#

It's Remix Tutorials.

brisk snow
torn grail
#

i want the flying squids

#

so i can eat heem and glow

#

then

#

them

#

thats all

#

is looks to the moon far

brisk snow
#

Not saying.

torn grail
#

bruh

brisk snow
#

Don't worry about the "flying squids". You aren't supposed to know about them yet.

torn grail
#

but i dont wanna hold a cat

#

and i want permanent light without holding something

#

and not those blue orbs that breifly flash some ligth and arent infinite

brisk snow
#

And you clearly still don't know a lot about them - you're chasing a hazy shadow you think is progress, without understanding what it is or how to get it.

torn grail
#

and i dont even see anything cause they light upo the room weird

#

like at least make me move normally if im gonna hold something and give me one free hand

#

but moving so much slkower and the opposite direction at time, occupied both hands AND hitbox 3x is not gonna work out

#

id rather go blindfolded with my hands tied and the controller 2 miles away from my ps5

#

would be easier

urban field
#

You dont have to hold them you know

torn grail
#

they run away

#

and if i kill them they stop glowing

#

the run away so quick if i drop them

urban field
#

You still dont have to do anything with them

#

You can just wander

#

Find rooms that arent pitch black

brisk snow
#

As I've said before, there are other light sources that are more reliable and better than the cats. You'll find them if you keep looking.

torn grail
#

and even if they didnt run away how would i retrieve them again when i go to a higher place

torn grail
brisk snow
#

Those aren't reliable monklaugh

torn grail
#

ok

#

tell me

brisk snow
#

Unless you plan on memorizing where they grow-

torn grail
#

its ok i promise i wont look

#

if you spoiler it

brisk snow
#

...

#

just

#

play the game

#

you'll learn

torn grail
#

no just sp0oiler it and ill click it when im done with the game

#

pinky promise i wont look

brisk snow
#

||Pinky promise?||

torn grail
#

ok as promiseed

#

ill look at it later

#

anyway

#

ill check around as you said

#

hopefully the fog wont come

brisk snow
#

In my case, the nicer lands turned out to be not so nice, and in fact arguably just as tough to navigate - until, right as I left, I stumbled across the secret to surviving them and felt incredibly stupid for not realizing it earlier. It turns out that happens a lot monklaugh

torn grail
#

SLOW MO FLOWERS

#

WOAH

#

ddamn that lasted long

brisk snow
torn grail
#

NO

#

BRUH

#

I FOUND THE LIGHT THAT SCAVS USE

#

THEN ONE KILLED ME

#

INSTANTLY

#

i swear monk is horrible with the scavengers

#

i shpouldve kept playing survivor'

#

this is what u meant by monk is harder right

brisk snow
#

no

urban field
#

Some scavenger just wanna see the world burn

brisk snow
#

The scavengers don't have anything against the Monk unless you make them monklaugh

#

(or you just found a mean one, yeah)

torn grail
#

i think i figured out what the C means\

#

its places ive visited

#

cvause the first 2 are marked

#

and 3 dots after that theres another one marked

#

so im guessing i skipped a lot of rooms

#

regions

#

thats prob garbage wastes, looks to the moon and one other place i missed

#

probably in IC

#

was that the light ur talking abt btw

#

the scav ;light

#

that yupou hold

brisk snow
#

Quite a lot of progress today lizgreengaming

torn grail
#

eh

#

not rlly

#

i keep dying

brisk snow
torn grail
#

oh nice

#

now i just gotta find and kill one

brisk snow
# torn grail i keep dying

You're still making a lot of progress! Slow Time Flowers, Scavenger lamps, theories about the stuff in the menu screen...

torn grail
#

is there a way to get it without killing it

#

does it trade

#

if i give it a spear will it give me the lamp

urban field
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Find out if it does or not

brisk snow
torn grail
#

ok

#

also

#

ive been noticing a karma flower budding on my dead body when i die on the death screen where it shows the karma even if i didnt eat a karma flower

#

like it actually buds

#

its a low fps animation

brisk snow
#

Even more progress monkcheese

torn grail
#

what does that mean

brisk snow
#

You're noticing things.

torn grail
#

curiosity is killing me pls tell me

#

no like what the flower means

#

i didnt eat one

#

does ythat mean a flower grew in my place when i died

#

and its there now

urban field
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

torn grail
#

ok pls tell me now im curious

split laurel
#

its ur own theory and you can figure out if its true or not

torn grail
#

DAMN IM RIGHT

#

Im finally right on lore for once

#

Im boutta fill every corner of shaded with karma flowers lol

brisk snow
brisk snow
torn grail
#

awake

#

1 hour until school

#

rain world marathon

torn grail
#

Is it cause I stood upright

#

And scared him

#

I was tryna crawl

torn grail
#

<@&1137895527271379055> Do I need to hibernate to save an item in my stomach

#

And if I die after hibernating with an item in my stomach do I keep it

wind flint
#

Yes

#

Hibernating is like saving

torn grail
#

Okay good to know, thats why I didn't keep the scav light

wind flint
#

Dying is like going back to your last save

torn grail
#

Yeah I got it now

tranquil plume
torn grail
#

Or if it was this specific scav

tranquil plume
#

if you haven't done anything wrong to them, then they're neutral to you

#

but some scavs are just special

torn grail
#

So even if I stand up they wont do anything (normally)?

#

Cause they're very scared of me apparently

#

So I thought standing with my full height scares them somehow

tranquil plume
#

Idk, I just crawl and drop all my items if I see a scav

torn grail
#

Same

#

I traded with some once

tranquil plume
#

some will still kill you though lol

torn grail
#

A spear for a lantern

#

But then that scav killed me

#

I had the lantern in my stomach in that vid

tranquil plume
#

dang

torn grail
#

It wasnt the same one I traded with

#

Also, I either saw a white scav or it was a lizard and I was tripping

#

Are there white/grey scavs

tranquil plume
#

they can basically be any color

torn grail
#

I've only ever seen red and brown

#

And sometimes black

wind flint
#

“Neutral” when it comes to scavs means more like on thin ice, so if a scav is extra anxious or cautious or smth they would rather attack before you have a chance to

torn grail
#

somewhere in that color range yk

wind flint
#

After you play for a while you’ll see a ton of colours

#

I once met a neon blue and a bright pink

tranquil plume
#

only a matter of time before someone gathers up scav corpses and makes an lgbt flag

torn grail
#

LMAO

#

sad actually

#

dont kill scavs

#

they're just scared

urban field
tranquil plume
#

the pain

torn grail
#

So is trading an actual thing you can do with the scavs or is it a coincidence that they're dropping stuff when they take my dropped items

tranquil plume
#

it's an actual thing

torn grail
#

Ah ok nice

wind flint
torn grail
#

Sometimes I get scared tho cause if they see me with a spear walking towards them im scared they'll kill me

#

When 99% of the time I just wanna trade it

#

And if I accidentally push or walk through them or make fast movements im dead

#

Dropping is such a pain tho

#

It barely works for me

#

And sometimes I press circle instead of square

#

So I end up throwing it

#

Either killing a scav or scaring it enough to kill me

#

Even if I drop it tho

#

They still kill me sometimes

#

Like I try to drop it and just run from the item until they pick it up

#

After that idk what to do cause if I go towards them they kill me

#

Do they drop the item immediately after they pick up your item

#

Like at the spot wghere you drop it

#

Or try and give it to you directly

tranquil plume
#

they drop the item where they pick up your item

torn grail
#

Okay

wind flint
#

The thing you’re giving them might not be valuable enough for them to make them like you

torn grail
#

A spear isnt valuable enough?

wind flint
torn grail
#

If food is more valuable then thats better

tranquil plume
#

well yeah they fling it sometimes but works

torn grail
#

Better than walking up to a scav with a spear

#

With a berry or a bat its so much safer walking to a scav

tranquil plume
#

just because it's not as valuable doesn't mean it doesn't add up to something also

torn grail
#

Any general tips to make scavs not as scared of me

wind flint
tranquil plume
#

they shouldn't really attempt to kill you immediately if you're just on the ground waiting for them to notice you from afar, then drop the spear and run lol

#

if you're right next to them and they notice you they'll obviously be scared

#

I have no objective proof for this it's just my gameplay experience lol

torn grail
#

Also if im in front of a pipe sometimes and a scav goes out of it and immediately runs into me and sees me I see their eyes like widen and stuff and its so cute

#

Is it intentional

#

Like if they get scared their eyes widen

tranquil plume
#

ye

torn grail
#

Or surprised

tranquil plume
#

surprised yeah

torn grail
#

I love scavs

#

They're so cute

#

Except the ones who kill me for no reason

tranquil plume
#

they have many ways to show you what they think

torn grail
#

But even then they're prob just scared

wind flint
#

Yea stay cautious, try different things with them and with time you’ll figure out the best way to deal with them

torn grail
#

I shouldn't blame the one in the vid tbh

wind flint
#

They use a lot of body language

torn grail
#

Lead you somewhere

wind flint
#

No

torn grail
#

Cause sometimes after I give them an item they go another direction in my field of view, stop, kinda like signal with their head and once I follow them they keep going

#

Idk if its intentional or they're just running from me lmao

wind flint
#

Maybe there is something I personally don’t know about but that could be just coincidence

torn grail
#

It's happened more than once

#

But idk where they would be leading me

#

So ur prob right

#

Also overseer a big help

#

L:iteral pitch black areas are no issue

#

If hes around

#

Cause he like

#

Projects the area

#

If that makes sense

wind flint
#

I do know what you mean ye

torn grail
#

Btw does eating the glowing flying squids in Looks to the Moon make you light up shaded

#

Like ik u glow but does it actually light up

#

Like ur surroundings a bit

#

And is it permanent

wind flint
#

Anything that glows glows in a dark area too

torn grail
#

The glowing

wind flint
#

There are no signs of it running out

torn grail
#

Cause I might just go back to IC and go to LTTM just so that i dont have to carry anything and if i die i wont have to find a light source again

urban field
#

You dont have much reason to be worrying about that yet

torn grail
#

Nah cause like I cant finish shaded otherwise

urban field
#

You dont know where LTTM is

#

Dont worryabout it until you get there

torn grail
#

I could explore

#

Okay fine

wind flint
#

Oh I assumed you’ve been there

torn grail
#

I also wanna plat the game eventually when i git gud at it

torn grail
urban field
#

No they spoiled themselves bad

torn grail
#

Just something I heard from another forum

wind flint
#

I see

#

Aw

torn grail
#

What about the bunker after the gate from IC to shaded citadel

urban field
#

They keep focusing on goals of getting to places
Just take your time and youll get to those places eventually

torn grail
#

There was a glowing monk sleeping in it and when i dropped down it dissappeared

#

Whats with that

torn grail
wind flint
#

Anyway there would be no reason for Shaded to be near impossible to navigate
Each region has something you have to deal with and there is something to deal with the thing
Observe the environment and experiment with things you find

torn grail
#

I wont be able to get through unless i find a scav light and save with it

#

But if I lose it then hibernate then i wont have it anymore

#

So yeah im gonna find LTTM for now

#

I wont spoil myself on how or where but ill just explore IC

wind flint
#

That’s fair but don’t focus on finding a goal
The journey is important

torn grail
#

Yeah but I get demotivated most of the time

#

Wandering without a goal

#

Feels like I'll never find anything

wind flint
#

I understand slughug

#

Finding new things is the main goal
New things like rooms you haven’t been to yet

#

You can look at the map where you haven’t been to yet, unexplored parts of rooms you’ve been to etc

#

A lot of people (including me) get stuck somewhere because they don’t notice that a room wasn’t explored fully and there are pipes behind the unexplored part

torn grail
#

Ngl I just wanna finish the game so I can play Downpour

#

It seems very fun

#

And the normal game is starting to get fun for me too

#

Im glad I stuck to it

#

What does the slugcat head symbol mean?

#

The overseer keeps directing me

#

To pipes and stuff

#

With that symbol

wind flint
torn grail
#

Do you know

#

And just dont wanna tell me

#

Or do you just not know

wind flint
#

I do know

torn grail
#

Whats it mean

#

Can I find my family following it

#

The one I got seperated from

#

It also showed a black slugcat wayyyy back in Outskirts

#

Overseer

#

in a hologram

wind flint
#

It’s pointing

urban field
torn grail
#

Ok

#

NEW GATE

#

YESSIR

#

no karma ofc

#

well time to grind

#

Also is hunter mode harder or easier

#

Since you're more fierce

#

And can do more things i think

#

I feel like it would balance out right

#

Since you're more experience but so are the monsters

urban field
#

Hunter is the game's "hard mode" is the most basic way I can put it

torn grail
#

Lmao yea no way

#

I just wanna be OP for once

#

Is there a dlc slugcat

#

Thats OP

#

Which is the most OP

urban field
#

Not really

torn grail
#

?

urban field
#

The msot op cat would be the one youre personally most good at

torn grail
#

So thats how it is

#

I see

#

So if they're not different is it just diff colors

urban field
#

Wdym if theyre not different

torn grail
#

Skbidi

#

sorry

#

it came out

#

instinct

#

anyway

urban field
brisk snow
torn grail
#

btw!

#

controls are hella weird

#

what are ur settings

#

i wanna play on controller but idk if i can

tranquil plume
#

let me try it

torn grail
#

Launch it and go to options

#

Do u play on controller

tranquil plume
#

no

torn grail
#

damn

tranquil plume
#

I kinda want to buy one tho

#

controllers sound interesting

#

ok yea these settings are crazy LOL

#

I rlly forgot how janky the controls are

brisk snow
#

I play on controller

#

(it works great, IMHO it makes the controls more intutitive but, then, I play all my games on controller, so)

torn grail
#

i play almost EVERY game on controller if it has controller support

#

other than like rythym games and stuff

#

and roblox

#

tho i use controller for arsenal and battlegrounds games

brisk snow
#

Then, yeah, try Rain World with a controller gourmthumbsup

torn grail
#

I am cause its on my playstation lmao

#

When I first play a game, playing it with keyboard or controller determines what im gonna use for the rest of the time I play the game

brisk snow
#

oh lol

torn grail
#

3 months later… I’m here to have another shot at the game

#

<@&1137895527271379055> I need some help, should I stay at Shaded or should I leave? I don’t have the glowing upgrade from LTTM and I have no idea where it is, and I cannot for the life of me save with a scav light, or even get one for that matter

#

Even with Overseer’s help lighting stuff up since I’m monk it doesn’t actually light it, it just projects stuff and it doesn’t keep the spiders away

lavish tree
#

By leaving, do you mean going back from where you entered?

torn grail
#

Apparently the light keeps the monsters away which is useful

torn grail
#

I don’t even remember where that is lol

#

So far I’ve only been to Outskirts, Industrial Complex, and Shaded

fallow crater
#

Spooky it was

torn grail
#

I will admit I looked up a map to get to shaded since I was getting frustrated and I don’t regret it but I don’t really like shaded

#

At least not now

fallow crater
#

I’ve been to all biomes

#

Shaded is hard I agree

torn grail
#

I’ll come back when I have the glowing upgrade from LTTM

fallow crater
#

Ok

#

Wish ya luck

torn grail
#

Apparently it’s permanent so that’s good

fallow crater
#

Yep

torn grail
#

Where is LTTM?

#

Can I get there from IC?

#

Or do I have to go to Garbage Wastes?

fallow crater
#

Am I aloud to tell.

#

Cuz ik how

torn grail
#

Uh yeah I asked lol

urban field
#

You shouldnt know what thsoe things even are, you spoiled yourself

lavish tree
#

May I ask how do you know about LTTM?
And the easiest way for you would be through shaded, funnily enough

fallow crater
#

Hm

#

Ye idk if I wanna tell

#

It’s. Fun mission

torn grail
#

I know about it from other forum posts

#

Reading through some guy eating the flies or something

urban field
#

You shouldnt be looking in other forums because thats spoilers

#

You should be staying in your own forum until you beat the game at minimum

torn grail
#

I don’t mind as long as I progress this game feels like a job that I paid to do 😭

#

Just wanna hurry up and finish the game so I can get to the fun DLC stuff

lavish tree
#

Fair enough
Could you give us a screenshot of your current location ingame? So that we can help you better

torn grail
#

Already bought it and I’m excited

urban field
torn grail
urban field
#

The DLC requires you to have basic knowledge of mechanics adn survival from regular gaemplay

torn grail
#

It’ll feel like I’m deserving of playing it

urban field
#

And also having the knowledge of where basic landmarks are at and hwo to get places

torn grail
urban field
#

If you skip the whole learning process adn just spoil yourself to everything, the dlc wont be as fun because you wont have the experience and itll be harder

torn grail
#

Is there a rain world lore vid I can watch like mossbag’s vid for Hollow Knight once I’m done cause I’m clueless lmao

urban field
torn grail
urban field
minor crest
#

ummmm

torn grail
torn grail
urban field
#

The dlc conatins new campaigns with theri own characters, you cant play a dlc campaign with a different character

torn grail
#

Can’t I just set the difficulty to monk and play a character

urban field
#

Thats not how it works

#

"Monk" isnt a difficulty

minor crest
#

monk is a character, not a difficulty

torn grail
#

Oh

urban field
torn grail
#

Eh it’s fine I’m sure there’s some remix that lets me put inf health or something

urban field
torn grail
#

Uhhh well I mean surely it’s not too much harder than monk

urban field

Monk is the games "relaxed" campaign
Survivor is the regular experience for new playthroughers
Everything else is on par with or harder than Survivor

minor crest
#

honestly I'd disagree, I think that the 2 characters you unlock once you finish the survivor campaign are easier

urban field
#

This game does not cater to your playstyle however much you want it to

#

No matter what you do, you will have to learn how to survive and use the environment, or it will be difficult even with using whatever remix settings you will to try and make it easier

minor ember
#

there's just certain downsides the devs gave the character that make certain very difficult areas even more difficult

torn grail
#

Today I learned Rain World isn't for me

#

Gave it another shot and kept dying. Trying to find scav lights is a pain

#

I wish I could refund

#

Or at least have there be an easier difficulty

urban field
#

Monk is the "relaxed" campaign

#

Also, you will die

#

A lot

#

You will die because your skill isnt good enough, you will die because the game said so

torn grail
#

Ok so give me advice

#

And dont give me any "this is a spoiler so no" bs

#

Should I leave citadel

urban field
#

Take each death to learn and see what got you dead adn try to avoid it next time, or see if theres a way to do it better

torn grail
#

Based on my current skill level and not having the glow ability

#

Or is there something nearest to citadel I can use to help me

minor ember
torn grail
#

Other than scav lights (i cant save them for the life of me, or even find one)

minor ember
torn grail
#

eating the flying things in lttm

#

thing is i have no idea where that is

#

looked through every map on the wiki and none said the location

minor ember
torn grail
#

even went to the lttm wiki page and it didnt say

minor ember
#

once you leave shaded it should guide you in a different direction

urban field
#

Well, a good part of the game is finding your way, not having everyone tell you where to go as that kind ruins a good part of the exploration

torn grail
#

looked through the spoilers for it and read the description and location of each place and nothing showed up bruh, maybe its a dlc thing but im not sure

minor ember
#

and seeking out spoilers anyways

torn grail
#

i tried following it. makes no sense

minor ember
#

it just does that sometimes saintpensive

torn grail
#

trust me i gave it a chance more tims than jesus christ forgives for sins

#

i lost all trust in it

minor ember
#

what region did you enter shaded from?

torn grail
#

i think IC

minor ember
#

it will lead to another region that's a bit more chill

torn grail
minor ember
torn grail
#

and does that region lead to lttm or at least chain to it

minor ember
torn grail
#

outright tell me yes/no

#

ok

#

thx

#

ill try that

#

if i can remember how to go back lmao

#

it should be fairly simple but i need to get used to the gameplay a bit

#

like again i mean

#

havent played in 3 months not including the 20 min i played a bit ago

minor ember
#

you can still explain it, you generally are just going to have to wait until after you help them out

#

at the end of the day, if someone is in here asking for help for a section of the game, they probably want said help with as little things in the way as possible

#

it sort of just devolves into a minigame of "how do I get this person to stop yapping about game design and tell me how to have fun again"

#

/nm /not trying to be rude but it kind of comes off that way now that I'm reading it sorry

urban field
#

Okay

torn grail
#

wanna make sure i dont go to the wrong area

minor ember
torn grail
#

The craziest thing just happened

#

I traded with a scav for his scav light with a berry

#

And I actually got back to the bunker and saved

#

That's not the craziest thing that happened though

minor ember
minor ember
torn grail
#

I made my way through shaded and went to the room with the 3 blue balls

#

The ones that light up the whole room

#

for a bit

#

When thrown

minor ember
#

Oh yeah those things

torn grail
#

Big brained and used a spear to get up and through the room and I made it to a gate

#

Before that gate tho

#

There were berrie

#

berries

#

Couldnt reach one but I ate 2

#

So then I wondered

#

Can I throw a spear downwards to get more height to reach it

#

I remembered how to do a backflip

#

So I said yolo, backtracked for a spear and guess what I did

#

Took a bit but I stuck the spear to the ground and got a berry

minor ember
#

Oh wow

#

Did you learn that yourself, or did you see that you could do that elsewhere?

torn grail
#

Now overseer is showing five pebbles on his guding thingy instead of a slugcat

torn grail
#

It was from remix

minor ember
#

That's funny

#

Still impressive though

torn grail
#

(skurry used a five pebbles skin in one of their hollow knight vids)

#

anyway off to the gate

minor ember
torn grail
#

the rain doesnt come when you pause right

minor ember
torn grail
#

ive paused for quie a long time now

minor ember
torn grail
#

okay good

minor ember
#

Rain cycle does not progress

torn grail
#

I clipped the spear thingy ima wait for it to upload to the ps app and send it here

minor ember
#

Ok I have to take a test now so bye for about an hour hunterglee

torn grail
#

Byeee

torn grail
#

Made it to lttm, gonna exit at the first bunker

#

Todays session was very productive

#

Made a lot of progress

torn grail
#

<@&1137895527271379055> help

#

im in a lil pickle

amber nimbus
#

what does the pickle look like

torn grail
#

see i arrived at this robot thingy

#

probably looks to the moon

#

since im in that region

#

or maybe just moon

#

idk

#

i saw lil glowy flying things

brisk snow
#

And you don't know what to do?

torn grail
#

and uh

#

monkey brain kicked in

brisk snow
#

mhm

torn grail
#

i wanted to eat

ebon galleon
#

you are playing as a wild beast after all monksilly

brisk snow
#

So what do you need help with exactly monksilly

torn grail
#

so i grabbed one but then i heard loud noises and overseer saying "NO NO DONT DO IT"

#

well not saying

#

but like showing

#

like an X

brisk snow
#

"saying" as much as it can monklaugh

torn grail
#

but i heard that it gives you glowing permanently

brisk snow
torn grail
#

but i dont wanna hurt whoever that is

brisk snow
#

(cannot confirm or deny)

amber nimbus
brisk snow
amber nimbus
#

it's really up to you

torn grail
#

please let me know something idc if its a spoiler, does eating one of those neuron things negatively affect my gameplay and relationship with that person

#

just one cause only one gives glowing

#

i dont want them to die

ebon galleon
#

what do you think?

torn grail
#

thats prob a yes then

#

im not gonna eat it

#

i mean i have a scav light anyway

#

so its cool

ebon galleon
#

is it worth it or not... it is really up to you hunterglee

torn grail
#

what do i do tho

#

when im there

amber nimbus
#

that area is a dead end for now, more or less

brisk snow
#

nothing in particular

torn grail
#

brah

#

i went all the way here for nothing

amber nimbus
#

choose to eat the things or not, then be on your way 🚶‍♂️

torn grail
#

yk what

#

i have a spear

#

i might make that lil guy pay for bringing me here

#

i mean the overseer

#

i thought he was pointing to 5p

#

and apparently he drops an overseer eye

#

sooo

#

👿

#

i couldnt find the smiling one

#

5 min of spoiling later

#

i've decided not to eat a neuron fly

brisk snow
#

why

torn grail
#

i cant take it

#

not knowing something

#

i wouldnt have eaten them if i didnt know they made ,e glow anyway

#

cause knowing me once i grabbed one and saw all that happening i would instantly let go

brisk snow
#

If you spoil yourself on everything then it won't be as fun to discover monksilly

#

that's sorta the point

torn grail
#

i guess

#

anyway off to 5p now i think

brisk snow
#

(and with a game like this if you know everything then it. sorta trivializes the entire game)

torn grail
#

ill just follow my "friend"

#

nah theres still the difficulty aspect

brisk snow
#

Like where food is, or what food is.

#

What you know and don't know matters a lot more for your success than your actual skill level a lot of the time.

torn grail
#

awww

#

a new friend

#

glad i didnt eat it

#

the hunter??

#

the hell did i do

#

what is that based on

#

i also got a lil of the saint

#

so it kinda contradicts

#

should i use my TP

#

to get outta lttm

#

what region is closest to 5p

ebon galleon
#

do you feel like using it? hunterglee

torn grail
#

yea i dont remember where i cam in from lol

#

im not going through all of lttm, shoreline, AND shaded again

#

though i do need to go to the memory crypts

ebon galleon
#

sounds like you know where to go aninoto

torn grail
#

yeah the thing is

#

that room below the one to get to shoreline

#

in shaded

#

is full of spiders

#

thought the scav light was supposed to keep them away

torn grail
#

<@&1137895527271379055> where does overseer try to lead me next? after lttm

#

pretty sure it's 5p but anything specific

#

wanna use my tp

#

wiki says 5p is the second area overseer tries to lead you

#

after lttm

lavish tree
torn grail
# lavish tree Yes

its 5p? okay good to know, i believe that means shaded is closest? since it houses memory crypts

lavish tree
#

Yep

torn grail
#

The craziest thing happened

#

I know I say that for eevery crazy thing but just listen'

#

So I saw this lizard right

#

It's pink

#

I was like "Oh no" and I was holding a glowing cat to light up stuff

#

It was in the way and I was cornered so I threw the cat as a distaction and ran

#

Next thing I hear a weird noise and then I have the lizard chasing me

#

Well, "chasing" me

#

I was cornered and about to give up until

#

Something crazy happened

#

It just

#

Stood there

#

Looking at m

#

I was too scared to move

#

I decided to move since nothing was happening and it was FOLLOWING ME

#

I MADE A LIZARD FRIEND

#

I TAMED A LIZARD

#

I try to hibernate to save this experience

#

I get in and guess who comes into my hibernation area

#

My lizard friend

#

I have my karma dream and I get a new thing called "The Friend" and it progresses up

#

I wake up and the lizard friend is next to me

#

Wait <@&1137895527271379055> Please tell me something

#

Can I ruin my relationship with my friend in any way other than hitting or harming it

#

For example stepping over it (on accident ofc) and fast movements and stuff

#

Or like holding a spear and moving towards it

amber nimbus
#

no reason to take the risk if you're unsure :P

torn grail
#

Nah nah

#

I need to knpw

#

Tell me if you know at least

amber nimbus
#

I do know

#

you shouldn't worry about it too much 🙂

torn grail
#

Okay

#

Answer this clearly tho, if I run towards it holding a spear will it get scared or "unfriend" me

#

Just in case im holding one

#

For protection

amber nimbus
#

anything that would make you be "unfriended" would be clearly identified

torn grail
#

So killing it?

amber nimbus
#

like the X

#

from the overseer

torn grail
#

I dont care about it being identified

#

Yk what im just gonna look at the wiki

amber nimbus
torn grail
#

This is what happens when im clearly asking for something and you still gotta be vague abt it 😭

amber nimbus
#

like, with the noises and the X

torn grail
#

I wanna know beforehand

#

So I dont do said wrong thing

amber nimbus
#

it would be scattered across multiple pages and buried in paragraphs

#

really all you need to know is that it'll warn you if you're doing smth wrong

but there isn't really a distinct friend reputation that you need to defend rn

torn grail
#

Just read some reddit stuff deep into a multi comment thread

#

Lizard rep is global

#

Meaning any lizard I befriend/gain reputation is the same for all of them

#

Max 100 rep to befriend them completely

#

Ie making them passive

amber nimbus
#

it's really wayy more complicated than that

torn grail
#

EEven throwing a rock at them decreases rep

#

Also another thing

#

Will my lizard friend die by the long spider things

#

The ones that dont get repelled by a lantern

#

In shaded citadel

#

Im using a scav light and its repelling 2 types of spiders as per the wiki says

#

There's 1 species thats harmful and extremely hard to get past

#

I have over 20 deaths in that one area because of them

#

Can they kill my lizard

#

And vice versa, can my lizard kill them

urban field
#

Go there and find out

torn grail
#

Also does the lizard have health, or are there certain things that insta kill

#

Like throwing rocks no matter how many wont kill them

#

But a spear to the head will kill them

torn grail
#

I would say no, but since it doesnt directly decrease my rep (i think) and since theres many lizards and theyre ez to befriend ill do it

torn grail
#

Another break

#

Game isn’t clicking again

#

I keep dying

#

And losing rep with my friend

#

At this point I’m getting really frustrated

#

One cycle I fed him so many glowing cats and went to the area that leads to memory crypts (I think) and since I kept dying to that stupid spider centipede I thought my lizard friend would help, but noooo he just sat around being stupid and didn’t wanna follow me

#

<@&1137895527271379055> Please outright tell me a strategy to avoid or kill those stupid spider centipedes they show up in every cycle in the one are I need to go

#

And I can never get past them EVER

#

I’m okay with being spoiled I don’t care just tell me

amber nimbus
#

firstly, you can attack them normally with enough precision

#

a rock or spear will kill or stun some of em

amber nimbus
torn grail
torn grail
#

Is a scav lantern not enough

#

I’ve been had light

#

They don’t give a shit

amber nimbus
#

well, you need to keep moving when you see one; they might not like it but they'll get over their fear for a meal relatively quickly

#

don't hesitate or stop when you see them

torn grail
#

What if they’re in front of me

#

They’re so big I’d walk into them even if I try to jump over them and instantly die

#

Back flipping doesn’t work

#

Maybe dash pouncing

amber nimbus
#

maybe use the moment right when you attack to slip by; it could disorganize it

#

if all else fails, though

torn grail
#

Can I tame it like the lizards?

amber nimbus
#

the region provides an easy solution, if you know where to look

torn grail
#

That would be so helpful

amber nimbus
torn grail
#

Ffs I’m tired of the looping

#

It’s the same answers

#

Just tell me

#

I’m visibly frustrated

#

I think I deserve more than “give it a shot” I’ve already had enough of those

amber nimbus
#

remember their weakness

torn grail
#

Glowing cats?

#

Wait can I tame them like the lizards with those

#

Or is it just a distraction

amber nimbus
# torn grail Glowing cats?

that's one; you mightve missed the other and I recommend exploring a bit more outside of the areas you're in

torn grail
#

I didn’t wanna eat any

amber nimbus
#

within the region, still

torn grail
#

Don’t want my relationship with her to be bad

#

Oh

#

Scavenger lantern?

amber nimbus
amber nimbus
torn grail
torn grail
#

Also how do you ride the lizards? I heard stepping over them makes their rep for you go down so I don’t wanna f around and find out

amber nimbus
#

don't overthink things too much

torn grail
#

Which part

#

Second part?

#

They don’t care if you step on them?

#

Wow

#

Pushover much

#

lol

#

Can I get an answer tho

odd helm
#

stepping on them making the rep go down is extremely specific technical knowledge that doesn't apply to 99% of situations iirc
it's not nonexistent, but it literally does not matter for you at this point

torn grail
#

Can you tame the spider centipedes or not

torn grail
#

English please

odd helm
#

as far as it matters for you, it does nothing.

torn grail
#

Ok

#

Can’t tame the spiders

#

Dang it

#

I’ll try the glowing cats distraction technique

#

And apparently there’s something else in shaded

#

Which I wanna spoil myself on so bad

#

And I probably will do that rn actually lol

amber nimbus
#

once you find it, you'll know.

torn grail
#

Well guess what

#

I’m glad I spoiled myself cause I had no idea you could take those things with you

#

The flashbangs right

#

I thought it was just to illuminate the room

#

To see for a bit

#

But you can pick them apparently

#

And it instantly kills those guys

#

Can I store them in my stomach?

torn grail
#

3 hours later

#

Amazing session

#

Great progress

#

Made it through the shaded citadel (yess)

#

Got to memory cripts

#

crypts

#

Got scared by the hawks

#

Died like 8 times

#

Then finally made it to the leg

#

3 of those times were after the karma gate

#

2 times I fell to my death tryna get to the food

#

1 time was me dying to the rain

odd helm
#

slugpraise The Pit Victim Death Counter: 257 slugpraise

#

Everyone falls in that pit

#

well done, memory crypts isn't an easy subregion

torn grail
#

Didnt know it was so infamous

#

Thankfully I wont have to see it again

#

...right?

torn grail
#

This will sound hypocritical but

#

Despite me dying 8 times

#

It didn't feel that bad

#

See

#

Most of the time I either died from the rain, panicking because the rain is coming so I slipped up, or falling to The Pit™

#

I think I only died to the hawks 3 times

brisk snow
#

Well, the Rain is really the main threat there monklaugh

#

and the Pit™️

torn grail
odd helm
#

yea, it's mostly just being a single subregion that can very easily take over a cycle to get through
if you get somewhat lucky or take calculated risks, it won't take long!

torn grail
#

Exactly, the only reason I got through was because I stopped being scared of them and it just shifted to annoyance

#

As soon as I saw them pass me I dashed to the next safe spot

#

I ended up getting to the gate with half a cycle left

#

Left me time to think rationally and get the food without falling

#

Ngl

#

This game is actually fun now

#

I remember just tryna beat it so I can get it over with

#

But like with each progress I make it feels like I want to keep going

#

It's that dopamine rush

#

Anyway I made it to 5P

#

Kinda scared to eat the neuron flies but then again, it looks like theres a lot

#

And I don't see any other sign of food

#

Or a bunker for that matter

#

Fell a bit to The Pit™ V2

#

But we good

odd helm
torn grail
#

karma gate was survivor but there was a bunker and respawning food

#

i am on monk after all lol

#

what does the glowing monk mean?

#

when i go rest at a bunker

#

it seems like every time that happens i get a flashback

#

or cutscene

torn grail
#

<@&1137895527271379055> help

#

5p is so hard

#

the region

#

...

#

anyway

#

those blue radiance gummies are so annoying

#

its like the infection from hollow knight

#

its EVERYWHERE

amber nimbus
torn grail
#

i did some digging and the area i was going thru (unfortunate development, sounds so eerie) is optional

#

and can be avoided
