rip this cycle

#

this time its a really long cycle and a guy showed up PROMPTLY

#

awesome

#

karma 7, cycle 6

#

shelter rifht outside sub-t, karma 8, cycle 5

#

bugs and popcorn and atuff for breakfast and im going straight to the first shelter in there

#

managing to get locked out HERE would be heart wrenchign

#

moderate sized brawl and some corpse excavation later, im in

#

this may be the W moment to end all W moments

#

victory is guaranteed

#

made it here after getting pieced up by the centipede room like 4 times x3

#

karma 7, cycle 3

#

i did it!!!!

frigid swift
surreal dawn
#

kinda crazy, i totally did not think id be able to ascend too this run !

frigid swift
#

nice monksillymonksilly

#

you did it Within Time ...

surreal dawn
#

welp, thoughts: once i stopped using the campaign as an excuse to crash out it was actually really fun

surreal dawn
frigid swift
reef pelican
surreal dawn
#

lmao yeah

#

once i knew it was feasible i was all in and having a good time

#

and thats how i can re-play it as well

#

its just different when youre doing it the first time and unsure if youll make it

frigid swift
#

completing hunter in as little cycles as possible is pretty fun monksilly

#

you can optimize it a LOT

surreal dawn
#

oh yeah

#

the replay factor with this guy is HUGE

reef pelican
#

you still have more to discover in the campaign as always too

frigid swift
surreal dawn
#

sounds like more than just the pearl :o

#

not the sippppp

#

how much can there possibly even beee

#

i mean

#

where havent i been

#

didnt go to drainage i guess

#

or garbage wastes

#

maybe some cool stuff inside 5p other than it being way (or,, well, a little bit) less rotted

#

oh thats funny

#

i never even stepped foot in industrial either

jaunty pivot
#

Good job on beating Hunter!!!

surreal dawn
#

tyyyy

surreal dawn
#

some more pearls

surreal dawn
#

so fast pole climbing just convinced me to become a keyboard player

#

LOL

#

nowhere near as bad as celeste with keyboard

#

only thing im changing is grab to x and throw to c

warped cypress
#

Fast pole climbing is possible with a controller although it is harder

surreal dawn
#

i was trying it and it just didnt seem super worth it

#

i got it consistently on keys pretty fast

#

and controller already kinda gave me grief with other diagonal input stuff

#

its nice knowing im actually gonna slide when i try to slide too :p

surreal dawn
#

less confusion when those two are on opposite sides of the jump key

#

combat requiring quicker item management is still pretty tough for me on keys (thunderdome on the wall was DEATROYING me earlier lololol the yellows were being VERY inconvenient to sneak past)

#

but ill get used to it for sure

surreal dawn
#

i,, dont think this is first playthrough stuff anymore??? gnfdjkgndkgdng
uh oh im falling down the rabbit hole....

#

i hit a (would-be) 8.5 at one point, for some reason im not getting jumpboost storage most of the time, im attempting to do it every single time here and all "successful" attempts (none of them are still quite right but those that got significant height) came out as (would-be) 6s

frigid swift
#

movement slugwoh

surreal dawn
#

movement....

#

fun

frigid swift
#

are you trying to do ctvs

surreal dawn
#

yeah

frigid swift
#

those take some time saintpensive

surreal dawn
#

im finding that out hehe

frigid swift
#

there’s a mod that lets you see your inputs for every frame

#

i know we aren’t supposed to recommend mods but monkblep

jaunty pivot
#

Don't even get me started on consoleslugempty

surreal dawn
#

OOUGH,,

frigid swift
#

it helps so much for this kind of stuff

#

also for me the thing preventing me from doing consistent ctvs was i was pressing jump too late so monksilly idk try jumping earlier maybe

surreal dawn
#

reached the pole

#

still with the flip

#

probably same error just with successful jumpboost?

#

i suspect im pressing down before right and thats why

#

gonna loook into that mod

frigid swift
#

it’s called input log monkblep

#

steam workshop has spoilers for everything though so be careful

surreal dawn
#

found it, got the input displayer too

surreal dawn
#

neither of those mods are working but: yup, im accidentally doing this

frigid swift
#

are you using the tech resources post

#

if not i can link it monksilly

#

very helpful

surreal dawn
#

ya

surreal dawn
#

i guess i just have to like more aggressively tilt my hand to bias the positions of my fingers to make me hit the right arrow key sooner????? sooobbb

#

anyways these should still be pretty useful

reef pelican
surreal dawn
#

i also started doing an expedition

reef pelican
#

good luck!!

#

what is it asking of you

surreal dawn
#

survivor
pipeyard vista point
3 colored pearls in a chimney canopy shelter
meet chimney canopy echo

reef pelican
surreal dawn
#

im currently going through pipeyard and if i dont stumble upon the vista point ill just try to do the canopy stuff first then come back

reef pelican
#

im sure you’ll find it monksilly

surreal dawn
reef pelican
#

rainworld server challenge

surreal dawn
#

oohhh

#

fun

#

!

reef pelican
#

You get a color role for doing them, there’s quite a few but there are spoilers within the document for all campaigns

warped cypress
#

they do contain spoilers for all campaigns

#

so unless you've completed them all and know the lore, beware of spoilers

surreal dawn
#

i def need to checkout the full map as every scug

#

ive completed every one except the watcher

#

the only main things i can think of that i want to do that i 100% know will yield extra stuffs are taking the spawn pearl to moon as hunter and ascending the iterators as saint

reef pelican
#

The challenges reveal a lot of game mechanics too

surreal dawn
#

but mono did also suggest theres some other big thing with hunter

reef pelican
surreal dawn
#

i guess i could show pebbles the green neuron fly?

#

i will try this as well

reef pelican
#

there’s so many Hunter posts I forgor which ones did what monkwail

jaunty pivot
#

There's so many posts I forget who's whomonksilly

frigid swift
#

same hunterbaffled

warped cypress
#

who are you people

jaunty pivot
surreal dawn
#

who am i...

frigid swift
reef pelican
#

everyone asking who are you

#

yeaaah!!! then i fell and i cant get back up im just gonna Die and then come back and be more careful

surreal dawn
#

im uust trying to take hunters pearl to moon

#

there is No damn way

#

that a fucking MONSTER KELP

#

just ate the green neuron fly Twice in a row

#

I LIKE DIDNT WVEN KNOW THEY COULD TAKE ITEMS OUT OF YOUR HANDS AT ALL

#

and why is it SO fixated on the green neuron fly

#

it wants it more than ME

reef pelican
#

you could put it in a safe place if you need to hunterglee

surreal dawn
#

yeag i did

#

just shocked they can do that rivsob

surreal dawn
#

LOL,,,

#

that was worth it

#

NSH is such a goofball

#

i love him

#

thing i want todo next:

#

get M.O.C. before delivering SRS' message to 5p as spearmaster

reef pelican
#

hunting the hunter

surreal dawn
#

thats Harpoon Buzzard's job and i think theyre doing good enough on their own

surreal dawn
#

im gonna take surv to outer expanse now

surreal dawn
#

lmao i got a shelter failure in journeys end

1st time hunter/msc, now random experiments feat. M O V E M E N T

surreal dawn
#

dude no way

#

i dont have nitro

#

(i was wrong about this:) they unlocked animated emotes without nitro

#

finally

#

wait they arent server locked either anymore
ok now im suspicious
now i feel like theyre gonna take it away and its just an ad to make you want nitro

#

oh so i just had a fucking trial forced upon me i guess

#

im so confused

#

Why!!!! i didnt tell you to do that!!! as a matter of fact you didnt tell me you did that!!!

surreal dawn
#

oh yeh. started the spearmaster re-run

#

so far:

#

outskirts, wanted to go to drainage, got DEATROYED by 2lizard-monsterkelp sandwich, dropping me back to k3, bailed to industrial because it was Right There, Un-bailed to industrial after raising karma there, went thru drainage for real, now im right after the gate to wastes

surreal dawn
#

pack of scavvies and i beat up a king vulture lmao, also got this broadcast

#

so happy to have made it here with that mask

#

whooooooo

surreal dawn
#

made it to waterfront, end of play session

surreal dawn
#

haiii :3

surreal dawn
#

o yea, thought the pink was a new pearl but it was juist the "purposed organism for cleaning pipes" one again, abstracted due to being waterfront instead of shoreline, too bad

surreal dawn
#

im currently just idle in the game and doing something else

#

but in general RN im just exploring every corner of LTTM

#

because its siiiick ! x3

surreal dawn
#

very thoroughly explored 5p too just to master its layout

#

i love being in the superstructures, theyre comforting environments to me

#

anyways time to actually hear this guy's crashout

#

LMAO

#

A S T O U N D I N G

#

whats truly astounding is the fact that i managed to leave the pearl in his puppet room

#

i assumed he forcefully shoved it out of the pipe

#

uh, nope, you have to grab it on the way out i guess

#

which is

#

kind of weird honestly

#

seems like way too easy to completely hardlock the campaign

#

(other than ascension ig)

#

anyways that doesnt matter because a. i let him murk me in my attempt to retrieve it and b. i got everything i came for which was:

#

explore lttm a bit more thoroughly

#

see the remaining rooms in 5p that i had never been to

#

and take the precipice to go between em

#

now, i havent done the precipice back to moon, yes

#

but uh

#

a.

#

thats karma 5 and the precipice is just a teensy little bit REALLY HARD to traverse

#

though i think the area near the gate wouldnt be too bad to farm karma at

#

and b.

#

what was b

#

i forgot

#

oh wait actually i did also want to explore the precipice more thoroughly

#

especially to see where it connects to the rest of waterfront

#

eh ill do that another time

#

right now what im wanting to do is see more of the map as rivulet

#

so that constitutes an unusual route run

#

actually hm

#

yknow i just realized ascension is a pretty great way to automatically see way more of the map as every scug

#

ill ascend every scug at some point but thats not what i want to do rn for riv honestly

#

i just wanna do an unusual route with the normal story objective

#

and explore the rot and submerged superstructure more thoroughly on the way

#

im thinking drainage back to outskirts, industrial, chimney, exterior, rot, then through sky islands and farm arrays on the way back and then through wastes to moon

#

this route is also inspired by the rivulet replay that i started on my laptop during downtime at school being stuck at going thru underhang from east to west

#

i kind of cant believe i did that pretty painlessly on my first run

#

that one room with the strands that dangle way below the actual bridge you wanna be walking on

#

BRUTAL

surreal dawn
#

actually im gonna do arrays and SI in the beginning

reef pelican
#

the skill test

#

(I am proudly a si hater /hj)

surreal dawn
#

lmao

#

i hated sky islands at first because i was just trying to leave back to canopy but i didnt realize you could use squidcadas yet

#

and i was really struggling with the platforming especially one particular platform thats got foreground infront of it so id just creep off the edge every time

#

but now i kinda like it

#

theres that one room thats REALLY hard as hunter, but the rest is manageable

#

and its a pretty quick way around especially including the pipeyard connection

surreal dawn
#

wish i caught the one where i went oob past the left edge of the room and got softlocked that was funny

#

oh god that was a huge mistake now i HAVE to deal with rain deer for real to get back

#

i dont want to be this close to subterranean why and HOW did i get here i thought i was still mostly on the eastern end of arrays

#

oh wait nvm i can ploink back

#

yay

#

and now im just back in the other area i dont want to be what the helllllll

#

its like the whole middle section of farm arrays containing the SI gate has just vanished

#

is it actually to the RIGHT of the scav toll??? theres no way right??? it is 100% to the left???

#

NO ITS TO THE RIGHT OF IT

#

BECAUSE YOU GET THE PEARL NEAR THE SI GATE WHEN YOU COME IN AND THEN GO LEFT THROUGH IT

#

i have the memory of a goldfish

reef pelican
#

scav tolls have to be placed in annoying places just to annoy you :)

surreal dawn
#

i have a pearl in my stomach and everything

#

its just that i went up to that toll coming from the left side earlier and thought "oh, this must be the wrong way, id be going to the wrong side of the toll"

#

cue 30+ minutes detour

surreal dawn
#

tongue holds me in place

#

tongue bounces me up into initially harmless looking buddie's jaws just as they drop down

#

buddie hits a 360 and launches me into the void at mach 5

#

(also very pained bc why didnt i just use the horizontal pole)

surreal dawn
#

lowkey thought this was like impossible looking at it lol

frigid swift
#

dragon skip hunterbaffled

surreal dawn
surreal dawn
#

oh the joy

#

I GOT IT AGAIN

#

clearly the first 2 are like

#

by far the hardest for whatever reason

surreal dawn
#

theyre dansing

reef pelican
#

scug has brain damage (movement)

reef pelican
surreal dawn
#

the first one was just for Tha Learnz

#

2nd one couldve actually been pretty good but i didnt know filtration well enough

#

so it was like 53 mins instead of 42ish

#

got absolutely shafted

#

mostly user error though

#

one specific tunnel thats in the dark that i didnt know about couldve prevented like 3 deaths

#

but i wanna try pilgrimage before doing another one of those

#

riv story seems pretty fun too but im scared of underhang

jaunty pivot
#

But.. Pork Ribsrivworried

surreal dawn
#

idk waht that means

#

:3

jaunty pivot
#

Rivular

#

Scuglat

surreal dawn
#

huh, bizarre game freeze

#

oh nvm,

#

tabbing back in and pausing fixed it

#

\

surreal dawn
#

so far: farms --> si + si echo --> chimney + chimney echo --> here gonna try interior 5p as hunter lol

#

and show him the slagkeys

#

lmao that dll was being a complete pain and then just DIPPED by launching itself into the pit for zero reason

#

so mean!

#

k10 cycle 20 bottom of wall

#

ill finish this later

#

gonna help moon and then subt to end from sl

#

see what cycle we end on

#

what route to moon though

#

shaded or garbage

#

shaded would be faster but spitter spiders are a real bad problem

#

plus getting a lantern may be troublesome and spitter spiders in the dark would be...

#

i think id rather do garbage

#

even though im a little worried about scavengers

#

so far theyve been fine with me if i drop my spears and get out of their sight

#

ill pick up a white pearl in industrial to use as a gift to some random ones and hopefully thatll be enough to be mostly fine

#

waaaait what am i doing

#

i couldve just eaten a neuron fly!

#

im so silly for that

#

guess im doing garbage for sure since with spitters thats definitely like

#

"the idea"

#

of how youre supposed to do that

#

or at least by far the most viable with a pretty huge gap between it and other methods

reef pelican
surreal dawn
#

hes a mean doctor

reef pelican
#

negl I don’t remember the last time I took garbage wastes to shoreline lizorangeshock

#

I needa do that route more…

reef pelican
surreal dawn
#

SO APPARENTLY I GOT ROBBED

#

cycle FIFTEEN

#

apparently meeting an echo after 5p before sheltering robs you of the 5 extra cycles!?!?

#

WELP

#

i think i can still make it work

#

but it wont be as big of a buffer

reef pelican
#

Nothing takes your cycles from you rivflabbergasted

surreal dawn
#

maybe its because i quit out after respawning

reef pelican
#

You just didn’t get them because you didn’t shelter (save) you can just visit 5P again

surreal dawn
#

yeah i guess i could but i dont really want to also im already in garbage wastes

#

its just weird that after echo you keep the karma but not the cycles

#

figured theyd come as a 2for1 deal no matter what

reef pelican
#

5P also gave you karma so that’s up to you

surreal dawn
#

yippeee

#

ive also somehow managedc not to die a single time up to this point but sub-t is definitely gonna change that lmao

#

wtf is this shit lmaoooo

#

like three snails and a salamander

#

theres my first death

#

r.i.p. (death 2)

#

sub-t reached

#

cycle 10

#

i would like to finish with double digits so even if i die a bunch in filtration or going to filtration im gonna opt for having this be the last shelter

#

yea those dropwigs were like

#

in the worst spots imaginable

#

dying to rain in filtration was totally absolutely on my bingo card (esp. considering the short cycle) and yea it just happened oh well

#

im at karma 4 now rivsob

#

3...

onyx shard
#

You meeting pebbles never happened hunterglee

surreal dawn
#

so am i not gonna have the helped pebbles flag either,,

surreal dawn
#

i thought this results screen was gonna look somewhat cool LMAO

#

fun run regardless but this is a buuummeeeerrr

onyx shard
#

At least karma's not a hassle in subterranean

surreal dawn
#

yeag

#

sub-t continues to be my mortal enemy

#

a bit exhausted ill follow thru later

#

anyways im now at 1 plus a few extra deaths bc i dont really care anymore and im making stupid choices

surreal dawn
#

nope not yet

surreal dawn
reef pelican
#

what results screen were you referring to? sorry I got confused monknervous

surreal dawn
#

the one i havent got yet lmao

#

considering my streak for most of the run i was like hey itd be cool if i had like 5 deaths or something

#

but sub-t is just

#

SO hard

#

brought it from 2 to 13 on the last cycle

reef pelican
#

you can always do it again and again rivevil

surreal dawn
#

eeeyup

#

and also thought id have helped pebbles

#

but i probably wont

reef pelican
#

Hunter run but you do it in one cycle

surreal dawn
#

due to echo decanonizing it

reef pelican
#

yeah if you didn’t save

surreal dawn
#

womp womp

#

that was the main point of this run was to get all 3

#

sooooo

#

again and again rivapprove

reef pelican
#

Well I guess you can aim for less deaths next time hehe

surreal dawn
#

yea hopefully ill learn something about doing sub-t this way this direction

reef pelican
#

now.. do that and climb from bottom of leg to top of wall

surreal dawn
#

in 1 cycle?

reef pelican
#

if you dare to

surreal dawn
#

i could do that in 2

#

1 idk

#

if dlls were nice

reef pelican
#

I did that my first hunter run in 2-3 I think.. it’s not worth it

surreal dawn
#

but that definitely isnt what im gonna want to do if i want all objectives

reef pelican
#

It’s not an optimal route in any case 😭

surreal dawn
#

lmao

#

but its fun!

#

i enjoy how many ways there are to do exterior+pebbles

#

so its never boring

reef pelican
#

Hunter in general has so many routes that make it interesting

#

You can always take a different one

surreal dawn
#

yeaaah!

#

i think this time i also just wanted to conquer the sky islands route

reef pelican
#

I never went through SI on hunter hunterclose

surreal dawn
#

thinking of it that way ive done a great job with that

reef pelican
surreal dawn
#

going to subt first was the jankiest thing i couldve possibly done for my first successful one tbh

#

next time ill do outskirts

#

only exit i havent used as hunter a single time

#

maybe i could incorporate pipeyard

reef pelican
#

I mean you are right by some useful things in sub when you spawn in farm arrays

#

There’s nothing wrong with going that way

surreal dawn
#

ya

#

something about it just feels really funny to me

reef pelican
#

I don’t know what this p####### is but it sounds scary (change to tags because that looked bad……)

surreal dawn
#

lol

#

i think i would still want to get to know it better first

#

before trying it as hunter

reef pelican
#

If you can get all the way through sub to shoreline with no deaths I think it is a good route actually

surreal dawn
#

no yeah the funny part was that i died so many times there and then made the rest of the run feel easy in comparison

reef pelican
#

there is another subterranean connection that would be useful too

surreal dawn
#

so this one is the opposite despite only doing half the subt i did the first time

reef pelican
surreal dawn
#

if i do moon earlier in the run and still have to get echoes i could make drainage to subt work maybe

#

farm echo tp back to outskirts or something

reef pelican
#

The drainage-sub gate is the easiest one to cross iirc hunterglee

surreal dawn
#

but yeah hunter is so much fun

#

gonna start redoing saint too at some point soon

surreal dawn
#

so.... why no ctv

#

but i have learned a common issue for me seems to be jumping a tick early

jaunty pivot
#

Movement scary
